The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has expressed confidence in its leader Christine Lagarde, despite her being investigated for negligence in France.

Ms Lagarde, 58, has been questioned about her role in awarding compensation to businessman Bernard Tapie in 2008. She denies any wrongdoing.
Ms Lagarde was France's minister of finance at the time of the award.
In a statement, the IMF executive board said it was confident Ms Lagarde could continue to lead the organisation.
"It would not be appropriate to comment on a case that has been and is currently before the French judiciary," the executive board, which appoints the IMF's chief, said in a statement.
"However, the executive board has been briefed on recent developments related to this matter, and continues to express its confidence in the managing director's ability to effectively carry out her duties," it added.
Ms Lagarde was placed under formal investigation by the French authorities on Wednesday. She described the case against her as "without merit".
Formal investigations in France do not necessarily lead to charges, but indicate that a magistrate believes there are signs of wrongdoing.
Investigators suspect Mr Tapie was granted a deal in return for his support of Nicolas Sarkozy in the 2007 presidential election.
Ms Lagarde was finance minister in Mr Sarkozy's government when he was given compensation.
Mr Tapie was once a majority shareholder in sports goods company Adidas but sold it in 1993 in order to become a cabinet minister in Francois Mitterrand's Socialist government.
Mr Tapie sued Credit Lyonnais over its handling of the sale, alleging the partly state-owned bank had defrauded him by deliberately undervaluing the company.
His case was later referred by Ms Lagarde to a three-member arbitration panel which awarded the compensation.
Ms Lagarde said last year that her decision to refer Mr Tapie's long-running dispute with Credit Lyonnais to a panel of judges was "the best solution at the time".
She replaced Dominique Strauss-Kahn as IMF managing director in 2011. He quit over sexual assault charges in New York, which were later dropped.


A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after the death of a two-week-old baby girl in Greater Manchester.

Emergency services were called to Shaw Road South, Shaw Heath, Stockport at about 20:15 BST on Wednesday after reports a baby had stopped breathing.
The baby was taken to Stepping Hill Hospital, Stockport, where police said she died from her injuries.
A 25-year-old man remains in police custody for questioning. A post-mortem examination is due to take place.


England captain Charlotte Edwards will skipper Southern Vipers in the inaugural Kia Super League.

Six teams will compete in the new Twenty20 competition, which runs 30 July to 14 August.
Eleven of 15 group matches will be played at first-class venues, including The Oval, Old Trafford and Headingley, with Finals Day on 21 August.
Wicketkeeper Sarah Taylor, who earned her 100th England cap in February, will captain Lancashire Thunder.
All-rounder Natalie Sciver, who took six wickets at the World Twenty20, and Heather Knight will lead Surrey Stars and Western Storm respectively.
"With three or four England players, plus three overseas players, per squad, the standard of the Super League is going to be very high; exactly what's needed to take our game forwards," said Edwards.
"I'm really excited and happy to be a Southern Viper. The Ageas Bowl is somewhere that I've always enjoyed playing and I have particularly fond memories of winning the Women's Ashes there in 2013.
"I've also done a lot of work in the area with the Hampshire Cricket Board and Chance to Shine, so it's somewhere that I already feel really at home."
A total of 19 centrally contracted players have been assigned to the six teams.
Broadcast deals for both television and radio are yet to be announced.
Following England's loss to Australia in the semi-finals of the Women's World Twenty20, head coach Mark Robinson criticised his team's fitness and it is hoped the introduction of the WCSL will help address that issue.
* Langston is not centrally contracted but is still considered an England player.


Niki Terpstra won the prestigious Paris-Roubaix one-day race as British duo Geraint Thomas and Bradley Wiggins finished in a group 20 seconds adrift.

Dutchman Terpstra broke clear in the last 10km of the 257km race in northern France, which finishes in a velodrome.
Thomas and Wiggins were seventh and ninth respectively after John Degenkolb and three-time winner Fabian Cancellara won the sprint for second and third.
"There's a tinge of disappointment because I had the legs," said Wiggins.
"It gives confidence that I can match those guys and to go top 10 in hindsight is a good result.
"I'd love to come back in the next few years and do it again."
Thomas admitted he was "on his knees" in the final 10km after helping Wiggins close down a gap to the leaders in the closing stages.
"The way I rode it wasn't the easy way," he told Team Sky's website.
"We were out front for a lot of the time. It's satisfying, but at the same time we wanted to get a podium."
Terpstra, a 29-year-old rider for the Omega Pharma - Quick-Step team, who finished third in last year's edition of the Spring Classic and fifth in 2012, was a popular winner.
"It's the best day of my career. To win the biggest Classic of all is a dream come true," he said after becoming the first Dutch rider since 2001 to win a race more affectionately known as the Hell of the North.
"Since I was a little child and I started cycling, Paris-Roubaix was the most special race for me."
Terpstra made his attack stick in the closing stages after several failed attempts by his rivals and team-mates.
Tom Boonen, who was chasing a record fifth victory in the race, was the first to break clear of the main contenders on one of the 28 cobbled sections, 64km from the finish.
Slovakia's Peter Sagan and Belgian Sep Vanmarcke tried separate counter-attacks, while Team Sky duo Thomas and Wiggins worked hard to join a lead group that also contained Terpstra, defending champion Cancellara, Degenkolb and Zdenek Stybar.
Degenkolb, as the best sprinter in the lead group, became the favourite but while everyone else was watching each other, Terpstra broke clear and quickly established a lead of 15 seconds as nobody had the legs to go with him.
He entered the open-air Roubaix velodrome on his own but sprinted the lap and a half to the finish before watching Degenkolb edge Cancellara in the race for second.
Result:
1.  Niki Terpstra (Ned/Omega Pharma - Quick-Step)    6:09:01"
2.  John Degenkolb (Ger/Giant)                           +20"

The trial of a Dublin teenager held in an Egyptian prison for almost two years has been adjourned for a third time.

Ibrahim Halawa, the son of the most senior Muslim cleric in the Republic of Ireland, was arrested during a siege on the Al-Fath mosque in Cairo in 2013.
The mass trial of Mr Halawa and 493 others began in March after being postponed five times since his arrest.
Mr Halawa, 19, could face the death penalty if he is convicted.
Mr Halawa was on a family holiday to his parents' homeland when he and three of his sisters were arrested by Egyptian security forces during a crackdown on protests in the country's capital.
He was 17 at the time.
His family said he had taken refuge in the building during violent clashes between supporters of ousted president Mohammed Morsi and the security forces.
His sisters were allowed to return to Dublin in November 2013.
On Wednesday, a hearing in his case took place, with Irish officials in attendance.
But it could not proceed as 16 defendants were not present in court, according to the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs.
Defence lawyers requested that the trial would not proceed during the forthcoming Ramadan period and the judge agreed to adjourn the matter until 2 August, the department added.
Amnesty International Ireland said Mr Halawa should be released immediately with all charges against him dropped.
Colm O'Gorman, the human rights organisation's executive director in Ireland, said the situation was "utterly unacceptable".
"No one should have to withstand the continual raising of hope that they might have their day in court, only to have that hope continually dashed," he said.
"This young man should be at home in Ireland, continuing his studies and getting on with his life."
He added: "I urge the Irish government and their EU partners to continue to work on Ibrahim's case as an absolute priority."


London 2012 medallists are among suspected Russian drugs cheats who escaped bans when bribes were allegedly paid to the heads of world athletics.

The Sunday Times claims it has obtained a list of eight athletes who officials recommended should be banned in 2011.
But it is alleged Lamine Diack, then head of athletics' world governing body the IAAF, and Dr Gabriel Dolle, the ex-anti-doping chief, received payments.
On Wednesday the pair were placed under investigation by French prosecutors.
Diack, who was in charge of the International Association of Athletics Federations for 16 years until the 82-year-old stepped down in August, is alleged to have received one million euros in payments in 2011. An additional 200,000 euros was allegedly paid to Dolle, to cover up positive doping tests.
Diack, Dolle and the former's legal adviser, Habib Cisse, face preliminary charges of corruption by France's financial prosecuting body. Diack also faces charges of money laundering.
New IAAF president Lord Coe, who has offered to co-operate with French police, gave his first response to the sport's latest crisis on Saturday evening. He said: "That people in our sport have allegedly extorted money from athletes guilty of doping violations is abhorrent."
The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) was already investigating the IAAF following allegations made in a German TV documentary in December 2014 of systematic doping and cover-ups in Russia. It passed on information to French authorities in the summer.
The agency is due to report the findings of its year-long inquiry in Geneva on Monday, with one investigator saying it will reveal "a whole different scale of corruption" compared to an ongoing scandal at football's world governing body, Fifa.
On Friday, international sports lawyer Richard McLaren, who is one of three Wada independent commissioners to have co-authored the report, said their findings were "going to be a real game-changer for sport".
"You potentially have a bunch of old men who put a whole lot of extra money in their pockets - through extortion and bribes - but also caused significant changes to actual results and final standings of international athletics competitions," he said.
He added his team had "found evidence to support what was said in the documentary".
Diack ended his reign as IAAF president in August, when Briton Coe, a double Olympic 1500m winner, was elected as his replacement.
Meanwhile Diack's son, Papa Massata Diack, is among four men including Dolle, charged by the IAAF over breaches of its ethics code.
The charges relate to covering up Russian marathon runner Liliya Shobukhova's doping violations, the IAAF ethics commission chairman said, and were announced on Friday after the lifting of reporting restrictions.
Papa Massata Diack is a former consultant to the IAAF. The other two charged men are: the former president of the All-Russia Athletic Federation (ARAF) Alexei Melnikov and Valentin Balakhnichev, a former chief ARAF coach for long distance walkers and runners.
Hearings to consider their cases will take place in London next month.
In a separate development, Kenya has been warned by Wada that it is serious about a possible four-year ban - that would prevent the country's athletes from taking part in international competitions - unless the African nation's anti-doping efforts are stepped up.


Ed Miliband has defended his decision to carve Labour promises in stone - insisting he wants to show the public his pledges will not expire on 8 May.

The limestone monument, which the Labour leader suggested could be placed in the garden of Number 10, has already attracted widespread comment.
The 8ft stone has already prompted its own hashtag #EdStone and has been mocked by David Cameron and Nick Clegg.
But Mr Miliband said he wanted to be the first politician to "over deliver".
The Labour leader unveiled the pledge stone at a hustings event on Sunday.
Landscaping issue
The ridicule of the idea was put to Mr Miliband on BBC Radio 4's Today programme.
But he said: "Our pledges are carved in stone.
"I think trust is a huge issue in this election - the difference with our pledges is they are not going to expire on 8 May.
"Nick Clegg went into the last election saying he'd cut tuition fees - he trebled them. David Cameron went into the last election, saying 'no ifs no buts - net migration into the tens of thousands' - it's 298,000.
"We're setting out promises - they don't expire on May 8. They don't disappear."
Rock 'reminder'
Asked whether the monument would be placed in Downing Street if he becomes prime minister, Mr Miliband said: "I'll leave the landscape gardening to other people.
"But I'm absolutely clear about this: There are millions of people who are turned off this election... because they think no politicians keep their promises.
"I want to be the first person in British politics for a generation to under-promise and over- deliver, not over-promise and under-deliver. And that's why I've set out these pledges, and that's why I'm serious about keeping these pledges."
Mr Miliband said the stone was "to remind the British people, to remind working people in this country that I'm absolutely serious about changing the way this country works."
He added: "In the next few days this is a once in a generation election for the British people about who Britain is run for. Is it run for working people? Or is it run for the richest and most powerful? That is the choice between me and David Cameron."
'SNP chisels'
But the introduction of a pledge stone sparked a spate of social media jokes, with photoshoppers working overtime to turn Mr Miliband into Moses and more than a few comparisons with BBC political drama The Thick of It.
When asked what he thought of it David Cameron remarked: "If you've got a problem with judgement ... I don't think that's going to help."
Mr Clegg also mocked the stone tablet, telling Lib Dem activists in Bermondsey, south London there was "nothing attractive about the instability of a hapless Labour minority administration, regardless of these great gravestones they are apparently going to erect".
What are the top issues for each political party at the 2015 general election?
Policy guide: Where the parties stand
Former Conservative leader William Hague said: "This is yet more evidence that Ed Miliband is simply not up to the job of being prime minister. And if he does make it to No 10, Nicola Sturgeon and the SNP will take their chisels to Miliband's vanity stone and write their own demands all over it."
London Mayor Boris Johnson wrote in the Daily Telegraph: "What was he drinking? What was he smoking? What was he on when he came up with this one?
"Keep taking the tablets, Ed - don't erect them in government offices."

Police are searching for a man from the Vale of Glamorgan in connection with a Cardiff murder probe.

Police are investigating the death of Russell Peachey, 35, who was found in Grangetown at about 04:20 BST on Saturday.
They are now searching for James Mark Williams, 31, from Barry in connection with his death.
A 37-year-old man from Barry became the third man to be arrested in connection with the murder on Monday.
All three remain in custody.


An historic steam railway in Gwynedd has unveiled plans for a new £1.2m station in Caernarfon.

The Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway said the project would create two jobs and safeguard more than 150.
The new station will increase railway visitor numbers by around 5,000 a year and building work could start at the end of the year.
The heritage railway's Porthmadog Harbour Station recently reopened after a £1.3m rebuild.
"The railway held two public consultation town earlier this year and has incorporated ideas and suggestions made by local residents and visitors into the proposed design, which will include retail, catering and display areas covering two floors," said Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway in a statement.
"The £1.2m project to provide a new station at Caernarfon will create new jobs and safeguard existing ones in addition to generating extra traffic and revenue for both the Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway and the local economy.
"Ffestiniog and Welsh Highland Railway already provides significant benefits to the wider local economy, generating an estimated £25m each year and creating more than 400 jobs."


A family has paid tribute to a "very special" 66-year-old man who died in a crash near Mold, Flintshire.

Gerald Jacob's family said he had retired last December and had been planning to "continue his life travelling" with partner.
The incident at Loggerheads is believed to have happened on Saturday at 19:30 GMT. Police were alerted to the crash scene on Sunday just before midday.
"Gerry, as we all knew him, loved life and lived it to the full," they said.
North Wales Police are appealing for witnesses to the incident on Ruthin Road involving a grey BMW car which was found in a hedge.


If Australian UFO enthusiasts hope to retain government money, they may need more proof of terrestrial activity.

The nation's Social Services Minister, Christian Porter, has described having "a beam me up, Scotty" moment after learning his department had approved grants to the Tuggerah Lakes UFO Group.
The group has received A$6,000 (Â£3,400; $4,500) since 2013 under funding to support volunteers with disabilities.
Mr Porter has halted the payments to seek "more detail" about the group.
"I'm sure they are very nice people and there are lots of volunteers who are getting something out of it, but looking at it from my perspective, representing taxpayers, it did not seem to pass a common sense test," Mr Porter said on the Australian Broadcasting Corp.
The New South Wales group has more than 800 members on Facebook, where it says it shares "news, information, support friends and network in UFO matters as well as related topics".
When asked about apparent sightings in the region, Mr Porter said: "You tend to find a lot of sightings when you are funding UFO-sighting groups, I tend to think. But we will see what they are about."
The Tuggerah Lakes UFO Group has been contacted for comment.
A person identified as a spokeswoman told the Central Coast Gosford Express Advocate: "We have elderly people we pick up and take to meetings, where we need projectors and microphones so everyone can see and hear what is going on."


Councils in Wales are getting better at clearing up fly-tipping, according to latest figures from the Welsh government.

More than 95% of reported dumped rubbish was cleaned up within five days during 2013/14.
This is compares with just over 92% the previous year and 91.3% in 2011/12.
Blaenau Gwent was the best performer in Wales, with a 100% clear-up rate within five days.
The figures are included in the latest national performance statistics for councils in key areas.
In total, 31,301 fly-tipping incidents were reported across Wales, which is a slight rise on the previous year.
The response rate ranged from 80.2% in the Vale of Glamorgan and 81.1% in Neath Port Talbot to 99.2% in Rhondda Cynon Taf, 99.1% in Caerphilly and 99% in Carmarthen.
Denbighshire recorded 2,206 fly-tipping incidents, clearing up 94% within five days.
But Kelvin Hughes, Denbighshire's senior environmental crime officer told the Daily Post there was inconsistency between how authorities log the data.
"We take the view that to the public it doesn't matter whose land it's on; Denbighshire looks untidy, and that's what we want to get away from, which is why we look at fly tipping on private land as well as public land which we're responsible for," he said.


Derby County made it five straight wins as they withstood a second-half onslaught from Wigan Athletic.

Bradley Johnson rose well to head Tom Ince's free-kick into the far corner for his second goal in as many games.
Johnny Russell almost made it two, hitting the post from a tight angle after pouncing on a poor backpass.
The Latics piled on the pressure after the break, but Max Power spurned their best chance, heading against the bar when unmarked.
The game matched the Championship's joint-lowest scorers, and Derby's winner came with their only shot on target.
The Latics forced a string of corners amid mounting pressure, but could not break through against the Championship's second-meanest defence.
Power and Dutch striker Yanic Wildschut forced good saves from Rams keeper Scott Carson who kept his seventh clean sheet in 10 matches.
Derby have picked up 19 points from a possible 24 since Steve McClaren's return as manager and moved within a point of the play-off places in eighth, while Wigan, without a win in four home games, slipped to second-bottom.
Wigan manager Warren Joyce:
"We're obviously disappointed to lose the game. I thought in the first half we had a lot of possession without a lot of purpose in our play.
"We lost possession ourselves on the halfway line which leads to the free-kick, and a really soft, basic error means we're 1-0 down.
"The players did exactly what we talked about at half-time to stay in the game and I thought for half-an-hour during that period we deserved a goal."
Derby boss Steve McClaren:
"We had a great start and for some reason we kind of took our foot off the pedal when we needed to go up.
"We knew this would be a difficult place to come, and when we didn't manage to get the second goal the last 10 to 15 minutes were always going to be a bit nervy.
"You're not going to play well every week and it's getting to a time - December, January, February - where you have to grind out results."

Warrington Wolves and England hooker Daryl Clark has rejected interest from the NRL to sign a new contract with the Super League side until 2020.

The 23-year-old joined Wolves for a fee of £185,000 from Castleford in 2014.
Clark score 10 tries last season as Warrington won the League Leaders' Shield and reached the Grand Final, and played for England in the Four Nations.
"I believe we're building something special here as a club and a team," he told the club's YouTube page.
"I'm just looking forward to being part of that for the next few years..


James Hook kicked all 15 points as Gloucester came from behind to beat Bath and inflict a sixth successive loss on their West Country rivals.

Bath, who reached last season's Premiership final but now sit ninth after 10 matches, led 8-0 after Dominic Day's try and Tom Homer's penalty.
Homer landed another kick after two Hook penalties to keep them 11-6 ahead.
But, in the wind and rain, three more kicks from Hook secured Gloucester's first win at The Rec since 2012.
Relive Gloucester's win over Bath
Victory for the Cherry and Whites, which lifted them to fifth in the table, also ended Bath's run of five straight wins in the West Country derby, the most consecutive successes either side have ever managed.
Mike Ford's team spent the first 13 minutes camped inside Gloucester's half and led 8-0 after Day eventually forced his way over behind a driving maul, but threw away a significant lead for the second week running, having squandered a 13-0 advantage to lose to Saracens last Saturday.
The Blue, Black and Whites have now won just two of their past 11 games in all competitions and have already lost seven Premiership matches this season - more than in the entire campaign in 2014-15.
They are 14 points off the top four and, with six points also separating them and sixth-placed Wasps, may even face a tough task to again qualify for the European Champions Cup.
But Gloucester, whose spirited second-half display was rewarded by Wales fly-half Hook's accuracy from the tee, continue their revival under director of rugby David Humphreys and have opened up a seven-point advantage over their local rivals.
Bath head coach Mike Ford:
"We didn't have much of a kicking game, to be honest. There were times near the end we should have held on to the ball and tried to build pressure. But we carried on kicking poorly.
"Dan (Bowden) had a great debut at 12 last week but we missed an out-and-out number 10 tonight. The forwards did what they had to do but it was an ugly game, wasn't it? Not the best I've ever watched.
"Once they got in front it was difficult in that wind and rain. When we did get field position we kicked poorly or offloaded and the ball went to ground.
"Tactically we couldn't do anything else, with the weather and the personnel we had available."
Gloucester director of rugby David Humphreys:
Media playback is not supported on this device
"It was an important toss to win. We knew there was wind and rain coming in, so then it was a case of trying to get into the lead.
"Our set-piece was good but our half-backs managed the game and didn't panic, just kept Bath in their half.
"It's hard to appreciate watching on TV or even sitting in the stand how difficult it was out there to play."
Bath: Homer; Rokoduguni, Banahan, Eastmond, Agulla; Bowden, Cook; Lahiff, Webber, Wilson, Hooper (capt), Day, Garvey, Louw, Houston.
Replacements: Dunn, Catt, Thomas, Ewels, Ellis, Faosiliva, Matawalu, Clark.

A censored, 16th Century book suggests that scientific knowledge of the female body was held back by social taboos, researchers have said.

The copy of the 1559 Thomas Gemini anatomy book is going on display at a University of Cambridge exhibition.
A triangular piece of a page depicting female genitals was removed by the book's original owner.
Curator Shelley Hughes said it showed religion and superstition delayed understanding of the female anatomy.
She said the book's owner was "disturbed by its depiction of a semi-dissected female torso".
"The offending part, a neat triangle of paper on which the vagina would have been drawn, has been carefully cut away.
"Sin and female flesh were held in close association in 16th Century society with naked women often portrayed as the servants of Satan."
The book will be displayed at St John's College on Saturday 25 March as part of an exhibition called Under The Knife At St John's: A Medical History Of Disease And Dissection.
The 16th Century was a time of medical revolution with scientists improving their understanding of the body from human dissections.
The exhibition shows how knowledge of the body's structure emerged as the power of superstition and religion weakened.


Two 10th Century Khmer statues, believed to have been looted from a temple in Cambodia decades ago, have been sent back from the United States.

The life-size sculptures, known as the "kneeling attendants", had been displayed at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art for nearly 20 years.
The museum pledged to return the artefacts after evidence suggested they had been illegally exported.
A ceremony was held at Phnom Penh airport to welcome them back.
Cambodian officials hailed the return journey of the sandstone sculptures as a "historic" moment for the country.
Buddhist monks chanted blessings during the ceremony, which was attended by government officials as well as executives from the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The statues are believed to have been stolen from the Koh Ker temple 80km (50 miles) north-east of Cambodia's Angkor Wat temple complex in the early 1970s at the height of the country's civil war.
The museum announced its decision to return the statues in May after extensive consultations with the Cambodian authorities.
"The museum is committed to applying rigorous provenance standards not only to new acquisitions, but to the study of works long in its collections in an ongoing effort to learn as much as possible about ownership history,"  museum director Thomas P Campbell said in a statement at the time.
The Cambodian government is also pursuing other artefacts it believes were illegally removed the country in recent decades.
The Metropolitan Museum of Art has returned artefacts to Phnom Penh before - in 1997 it sent back a 10th Century Shiva's head it had been given.


Australia's High Court has ruled a gene which greatly increases the chances of breast and ovarian cancer cannot be patented.

A US medical research firm was awarded the patent for the BRCA1 gene after isolating it in the 1990s.
But the high court unanimously overthrew earlier rulings and said the discovery could not be considered an invention so could not be protected.
Cancer campaigners say the ruling makes testing for the gene more accessible.
Myriad Genetics, which holds the patents and makes tests for the gene, had argued a patent would encourage further research investment.
But the court in Canberra said that while detecting the gene "might be, in a formal sense, a product of human action, it was the existence of the information stored in the relevant sequences that was an essential element of the invention as claimed".
The discovery did not, therefore, count as an invention under patent laws.
The US Supreme Court had already ruled against the patent in 2013.
The case was brought by Yvonne D'Arcy, twice a survivor of breast cancer.

The 69-year-old said she was thrilled with the verdict as it would make it easier for people to be tested for cancer risks.
"For all those people who do have the genetic footprint for breast cancer, ovarian cancer, any cancer basically, it's a win for them because they are forewarned."
Anyone carrying the "faulty" BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes has a greatly increased chance of developing breast cancer and other ovarian cancers, so may choose to have preventative surgery including a mastectomy.
Ms D'Arcy, who brought the case along with campaigning network Cancer Voices Australia, said it had been "a David and Goliath test".
"I'm only a little person - but it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog."


Two men have been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a man was struck on the head with a hatchet in Belfast.

The 34-year-old victim was attacked in Glenrosa Link in the north of the city at about 01:15 BST on Sunday.
Police said he was taken to hospital and "remains in a stable condition".
Officers arrested two 26-year-old men a short time after the attack. They are being questioned at Musgrave police station in Belfast.


Atletico Madrid kept their La Liga title hopes alive with victory over Gary Neville's Valencia.

Former Liverpool and Chelsea striker Fernando Torres scored the pivotal goal on 72 minutes as Atletico moved within eight points of leaders Barcelona.
Antoine Griezmann put Atletico ahead and Denis Cheryshev equalised for Valencia before Torres struck.
Valencia had Anderlan Santos sent off on 80 minutes before Yannick Carrasco completed the scoring.
Neville suffered just a second defeat in seven games as goalkeeper Diego Alves endured a tough night.
Atletico made the brighter start so it was no real surprise when they went ahead in the 24th minute.
They squandered possession 25 yards from goal and Griezmann let fly with a low shot that crept inside the near post with home goalkeeper Alves slow to react.
The lead lasted just four minutes, however, before Valencia scored as a long pass was cushioned by the head of Paco Alcacer to Cheryshev, who lashed home a left-footed drive from 15 yards.
Cheryshev lifted a shot over the crossbar from another Alcacer header seven minutes before half-time as Valencia grew in confidence.
Alcacer had a chance to put Valencia ahead just before the hour mark when he latched onto a pass by Sofiane Feghouli but fired straight at goalkeeper Jan Oblak.
Moments later Alves made up for his earlier error with a fantastic, one-handed save to keep out a powerful effort by Luciano Vietto.
But the keeper could do nothing to stop substitute Torres, who was making his 300th Atletico appearance, putting his side ahead with 18 minutes remaining as he slid in at the far post to turn the ball home after Jose Maria Gimenez flicked on a corner.
Santos saw red for two bookable offences with five minutes remaining and Carrasco made it 3-1 five minutes later when he fired straight at Alves, who allowed the ball to creep in under his legs.
Earlier in the day, Barcelona kept up their run with a comfortable win at Eibar.


Burton Albion have signed midfielder Hope Akpan on a one-year contract.

The 25-year-old was a free agent, having been released by Blackburn Rovers when his contract expired earlier this summer.
He began his career at Everton and has also played for Crawley and Reading, and had a spell on loan at Hull City.
"The fans can expect me to be energetic in midfield. I like to tackle and hopefully I can also score a few goals," he told Burton's website.

Police have appealed for information after a hay field in a Scottish Borders village was set on fire.

The incident happened at West Mains Farm in Ancrum between 20:00 and 22:50 on Tuesday.
The blaze was spotted by a passer-by who reported it to a farm worker and it was tackled before it damaged a nearby combine harvester.
Police are keen to speak to the man who saw the fire and have asked him to contact them.
They have also asked anyone who saw any suspicious behaviour in the area to get in touch.


They must be the two most audacious space missions currently in development.

Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe Plus will venture inside the orbit of Mercury to study the Sun.
The temperatures on the front surfaces of these satellites will go into the high hundreds of degrees Celsius, and beyond.
You could say they are the missions to Hell.
Designing the systems needed to protect the spacecraft has stretched the minds of engineers.
They both require heatshields, of course. For the European Space Agency's Solar Orbiter (SolO), it is a titanium solution. For the American Solar Probe Plus (SP+), it will be a carbon-composite material.
Their instruments will have to cower behind these barriers to make the measurements that scientists hope will unlock some of the Sun's enduring mysteries.
Both missions appear to be making good progress.
The US space agency has just selected the rocket to launch Solar Probe Plus. A mighty Delta-IV Heavy - the biggest rocket in the world - will hurl this 610kg satellite towards the Sun in late 2018.
And European industry - in the form of Airbus Defence and Space - has announced that it has now produced what it calls a structural and thermal model of Solar Orbiter.
This is a kind of copy of the satellite, with representative instruments. It will be heated, blasted with sound, shaken and shocked to validate its design.
If the copy survives the assault, engineers will know the flight model should also stand up to the extremes it will face in the real environment of space.
We've had quite a few solar missions in recent years. The American DSCOVR spacecraft was just the latest, launching in February.
But most of these satellites have not ventured very far to do their work, preferring to study the Sun's inferno from the relative safety of an Earth orbit.
SolO and SP+ intend to get in the fire, so to speak - to watch the activity up close and then directly sample the effects as particles and their accompanying magnetic fields wash over the top of them.
"We essentially get three measurements," explained Tim Horbury, a SolO principal investigator from Imperial College London. "With Solar Orbiter, we do a remote measurement - we get to see what's happening on the Sun with our telescopes - and then we also get a second measurement when it senses what comes out.
"The third measurement comes from Solar Probe, which whams through the field of view very quickly, every so often, to sense what's going on as well."
SolO will go to within 43 million km of the Sun - significantly closer than Mercury, which swings around our star at a distance ranging from 46 to 70 million km.
SP+, on the other hand, will do the real daredevil stuff when it races past the solar surface at a mere 6 million km. And "races" is the right word because it is expected to reach velocities of 200km per second in parts of its orbit.
Different approaches require different strategies.
By standing back somewhat, SolO can deploy telescopes. And those pictures ought to be spectacular, revealing solar features at a resolution never achieved before.
By going in very close, SP+ can get remarkable in-situ data, but looking directly at the Sun is really out of the question.
At little more than 6 million km, the front temperature will get up to 1,300C. SP+ cannot even afford to have peep holes in its ceramic-coated, carbon-carbon shield.
The 1,800kg Solar Orbiter can. "We have some feedthroughs," says Dan Wild, a thermal engineer at Airbus. "These are just large cylinders made out of titanium and are coated black, mostly for light control so we don't get too many reflections.
"And then on the front of the cylinders are doors. We can close the doors and that means we won't lose the spacecraft if something goes wrong."
What can go wrong? For one thing - not pointing directly at the Sun at all times so that the heatshield ceases to throw a cooling shadow on the rest of the spacecraft.
"If you lose attitude - in other words, if at some point when you are very close to the Sun, you are not directly pointing at it - then the spacecraft may become illuminated behind the heatshield, with obvious consequences.
"So we have to have very robust Sun-pointing systems," explains Philippe Kletzkine, Esa's project manager on SolO.
"The front of the Solar Orbiter heatshield will see temperatures in the order of 600 degrees, but at the back they should only be in the order of about 60 degrees."
Interestingly, SolO's rear instrument boom, which carries some magnetic and plasma experiments, will be so shadowed, it will get cold enough - down well below minus 100C - to require active heating.
And so what do we get for this extreme engineering?  Hopefully, a chance to solve some solar riddles. By sitting directly in the Sun's outer atmosphere - its corona - Solar Probe Plus may help explain why this extensive region is so much hotter than the actual surface of the Sun. This really is a puzzle.
Solar Orbiter should give us our best insights yet into what drives the 11-year activity cycle.  Its orbit will take it high enough (30 degrees from the plane of the planets) to get a polar view of the Sun. For the first time, we will see properly what happens when the solar magnetic field flips.
"We know when it flips but we don't know the detail because we haven't been able to peer down on the poles," says Louise Harra, from University College London's Mullard Space Science Laboratory.
"By getting up to that 30-degree level, we'll have an excellent view, and that'll give us a much better idea of the mechanisms that drive the solar cycle, and why that cycle has started to weaken in recent years."
All up, the two missions together are costing taxpayers in excess of $2.5bn (the US mission is nearly twice the cost of the European one).  It is a lot of money. There is, though, a growing recognition that getting a better understanding of the Sun's behaviour has clear benefits here on Earth. Big solar storms have the potential to disrupt satellites, radio communications and electricity networks.
Prof Horbury: "The fact that we're getting both Solar Orbiter and Solar Probe tells you that this community of solar and heliospheric scientists have made a compelling case, and we've persuaded both space agencies - Esa and Nasa - that going close to the Sun to see what the Sun does is very important. And it's much better to run those two missions at the same time so they can complement each other."
There are many scientists working on both missions. And the Americans have agreed to launch SolO on Esa's behalf - again in 2018.


Japan's Kashima Antlers became the first side to benefit from a video replay in a Fifa competition as they scored a penalty in their 3-0 Club World Cup semi-final win.

Referee Viktor Kassai stopped the game after being alerted to an incident by his assistant, then gave a penalty after viewing footage on a monitor.
Shoma Doi scored the spot-kick, which was awarded for an off-the-ball trip.
Kashima beat Atletico Nacional and are the first Asian team to make the final.
Yasushi Endo backheeled in the second, while Yuma Suzuki added a late third for the Antlers who will play Real Madrid or Club America in Sunday's final.
The Club World Cup features champion club sides from each of Fifa's six continental confederations.
South America's Atletico are from Colombia, where two weeks of mourning was observed before the tournament following an air crash that killed 71 people, including 19 players and staff of Brazilian team Chapecoense.
Chapecoense had been travelling to face Atletico in the final of the Copa Sudamericana.
Many Atletico fans in the Osaka crowd were waving and displaying banners paying tribute to the Brazilian club.
Video assistant referees have been able to assist officials during two international friendlies this year but the Club World Cup represents their first use in Fifa competition.
Previous usage has been in what Fifa call a "semi-live" scenario, where the referee was not able to review decisions on a pitch-side monitor.
Referee Viktor Kassai halted the game after listening to the video assistant referee.
Hungarian official Kassai went to the side of the pitch as he was given further instructions from the video assistant.
The Atletico Nacional players remonstrated after Kassai, who officiated the 2011 Champions League final between Manchester United and Barcelona, awarded the penalty.

Fans of veteran BBC radio presenter Dave Cash, who died last year at the age of 74, have begun a petition to have a Kent roundabout named after him.

The former Radio One DJ from Hollingbourne used the roundabout and often mentioned it on Radio Kent.
Anne Bond, from London, who started the campaign, said his "loyal listeners" would like to remember him by naming Junction 8 on the M20 Dave Cash Corner.
Her petition will be presented to Maidstone MP Helen Grant.
Live updates: More Kent news
Ms Bond said: "Dave used this roundabout on a daily basis, whether it be on his journey to BBC Kent or heading in and out of Maidstone.
"Dave would always ask his travel reporter towards the end of his programme, whether the route to J8 was clear as his home was approximately a mile from the junction. He would often be spotted at the roundabout driving his branded 4x4."
She described Mr Cash as a "national treasure" who would be sorely missed.
She said: "We feel that to rename this roundabout would be one of the many ways we can remember Dave Cash for years to come."
Mr Cash celebrated 50 years of broadcasting in 2014.
He worked at Radio London and Radio Luxembourg before becoming one of the first DJs on BBC Radio 1.
For the past 17 years he presented vintage chart and country music programmes on BBC Radio Kent and other BBC radio stations in the South.

Mexico has raised the alert level around the huge Popocatepetl volcano, after it began spewing ash and steam.

Several schools around the 5,450m (17,900 foot) volcano were closed as a precaution, and evacuation shelters have been prepared.
The National Disaster Prevention Centre (Cenapred) raised the alert to "yellow stage three" - the third-highest level.
The volcano lies around 70km (40 miles) from Mexico City, and is visible from the capital on a clear day.
"We can hear the roar of the volcano, sometimes we can feel its force," Concepcion Perez from the town of Xalitzintla in Puebla State, 12km (seven miles) from the volcano told the French news agency Agence France-Presse.
Cenapred officials said the alert could remain for weeks or months until the volcano's activity diminished.
Popocatepetl - which means "Smoking Mountain" in the indigenous Nahuatl language - is Mexico's second-highest peak.
In 2000 a major eruption forced the evacuation of tens of thousands of people from nearby communities.


A 20-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after a woman was shot in the head.

The woman, 26, remains in a critical condition in hospital following the shooting in Oxfordshire.
Officers were called by ambulance crews to Thornhill Walk in Abingdon, at about 20:00 GMT on Tuesday.
Thames Valley Police said the suspect, from Ealing in west London, was arrested on Wednesday night.
One resident told BBC Radio Oxford: "We heard a loud bang and we heard a lady scream. This did not sound like a firework."
Searches and forensic examinations have been taking place in and around Northcourt Road.


A primary school head teacher has revealed that she ended up on anti-depressants after parents used a closed group on Facebook to criticise her.

It was "a constant stream of complaint and comment about tiny issues, often out of context", she says.
More than half of the 1,188 head teachers who replied to a survey by schools management service The Key say parents' online behaviour is a problem.
And 15% say they have themselves suffered from negative behaviour.
Mary, not her real name, who started her headship 18 months ago and wants to remain anonymous, says there is criticism all the time.
"Some parents say the heart of the school has gone since I have taken over," she told the BBC. "It is bullying. All I am trying to do is improve their children's education.
"Before I started treatment for depression and anxiety, I felt paranoid and intimidated. It feels as if people are ganging up on you. A parent might make a simple comment and others might add comments without understanding the context.
"It gets out of hand and misinterpreted. I can't take the page down because it is not run by me and I don't feel I am in a position to defend myself."
Another primary head who responded to the online survey, said social media meant that "negative and inaccurate comments that would never be said face-to face are often posted by parents online".
The NASUWT teachers' union says says the online bullying of teachers by pupils and parents is a growing trend.
One secondary teacher in her 20s from the Midlands told the union's magazine she had been harassed online by pupils.
"It's constant Facebook requests, Instagram requests and eventually somebody decided to send me a message to say a few boys thought I was sexy and that I was fit."
She says the comments, which spilled into the classroom, made her feel extremely uncomfortable before senior management at the school intervened.
John Collier, head of teacher training at Britannia Teaching School Alliance in the West Midlands, said problems were happening "more than you think".
He advises new teachers to be very careful with their social media privacy settings and to avoid accepting friend requests from pupils. recent pupils or even parents.
"If you are visible you are vulnerable not only to parents being able to contact you online, but the pupils themselves."
But Andrew Teale, head of St Paul's Church of England Primary School in Hereford, said that, properly used, social media can be an "enormously positive force" in schools.
When St Paul's posts pictures on the school's official Facebook and Twitter accounts, parents "lap it up" and it generates "a wave of positivity", said Mr Teale.
He says that blaming social media for bullying "is a bit like blaming a pen for a nasty letter".
"What we don't want is for teachers to run away from social media."
However, he says teachers should be aware of the negative side and know that they can contact their line managers if there is a problem.


The American industrialist Gary Klesch has come out in favour of the UK leaving the European Union, saying the country could enjoy "explosive growth" if it was no longer tied to Brussels.

He said firms in the EU were hampered by too much "cumbersome" regulation.
Mr Klesch, who runs his own investment fund, Klesch & Co, specialises in turning round struggling companies.
His intervention comes amid a series of large companies writing to staff in support of Britain staying in Europe.
BT, Rolls-Royce and today Unilever have all told staff the uncertainty engendered by Brexit could hurt investment and sales.
Mr Klesch has in recent years bought steel mills and refineries in Germany and Holland.
He was an unsuccessful bidder for the Milford Haven refinery complex in Pembrokeshire last year, and also tried to buy Tata Steel's plant in Scunthorpe.
How trade and the UK's economy are affected by membership of the EU.
He said that international investors would find the UK more attractive if it left the EU.
"The model is a very static model, a very regulated model. England is a part of that now. With Brexit, it can go to a dynamic model.
"It's not just me.  Everyone [investors] talk about Asia, America and last of all Europe.  The big advantage is that once you move into a dynamic environment it allows for explosive growth."
He said there was no doubt there would be an economic shock were the UK to leave, saying there was "no such thing as a risk-free transaction".
"There will be short-term pain, but long-term gain."
The UK should be confident of its position and status in the world economy, he said.
"I'm offended by the President of the United States coming over here and saying we will have to go to the back of the queue - when [the UK has] the fifth-largest economy in the world. Has he talked to Ford? Has he talked to Apple?"
The UK votes on whether to leave the European Union on June 23.


Opinion polls have been suggesting a log-jam in UK politics for well over a year now and the early polls in the 2015 general election campaign don't yet point to any significant change.

In 12 campaign polls so far, six have suggested narrow Conservative leads, four had equally narrow Labour leads and the remainder were dead heats.
The average share of those not voting Conservative, Labour or Lib Dem in those polls was 24% - double the actual 12% who voted for parties outside the main three Westminster parties in 2010.
An average of those dozen polls suggests the Conservatives on 34%, three points down on their vote share in May 2010 - an election they lost; Labour also on a 34% average, some four points up on their dire 2010 performance; the Lib Dems on an average of 8% - one third of the support they received in 2010; UKIP's average was 14% (up 11 points on 2010)  and the Greens were on 5% (up four points).
How these dozen individual poll results play out in 650 individual constituency contests on 7 May will doubtless be a joy to behold; but until then we mere mortals have to make what we can of the evidence.
Election 2015 poll tracker - BBC News
At present it appears like the finish of the 10,000 metres, where no-one has the momentum to break from the pack and everyone is bunched, waiting for the bell signalling the final lap.
If the Conservatives hoped to torpedo the television debates and limit any Ed Miliband bounce they seem to have been only partially successful.
Polls following both debates suggested that Ed Miliband performed as well as David Cameron, thus significantly better than his unprepossessing earlier, pre-debate, poll ratings would have suggested.
Survation (sampled 2-3 April 2015) were first out of the blocks with a post-debate national poll that gave Labour a two-point lead and Ed Miliband his first-ever net positive approval rating with the company.
The Conservatives struggle to make headway on the economy. Perhaps one reason can be found in the Ashcroft poll (sampled 20-22 March, 2015) which suggested that 23% thought they and their family would be better off under the Conservatives, compared with 18% who thought they would be better off under Labour.
However, the key finding of the poll, it seemed to me, was the 53% who said that neither party would make a difference. The distinctive feature of the months approaching this election has been the number of opinion poll respondents who believe very strongly that none of the established Westminster parties has an answer to what they regard as the most important issues facing the country today.
The Lib Dems face one of their toughest challenges in many decades. Can they defy political gravity and hold on to many more seats than their national poll share suggests? Individual constituency polls point to them pulling off such an extraordinary coup. The big unknown is whether they can withstand ferocious assaults from both Labour and the Conservatives over the next few weeks.
UKIP also have to survive being squeezed. With around 40% of their support coming from 2010 Conservative voters they are playing an important part in this election. They seem to be losing a little of their share but nowhere near the collapse the Conservatives desperately need.

Poorer students in England may be put off university by funding changes that could leave them with higher debts than middle-class graduates helped by their parents, a report says.

The Sutton Trust's commission on fees looked at Budget changes such as replacing means-tested grants with loans and tying fees to inflation.
It also calls for a full investigation of the student finance system.
Ministers say students will have more cash for living costs under the plan.
The trust - which advocates social mobility through education - set up the Independent Commission on Fees in 2012 to monitor the effect of higher tuition fees.
This report comes after Chancellor George Osborne announced he was scrapping means-tested maintenance loans for poorer students and allowing universities to increase fees in line with inflation - if they demonstrate excellent teaching.
The commission contends that linking tuition fees to inflation could see them rise to £10,000 a year by 2020.
It examines the higher education finance system for England, which allows universities to charge maximum yearly tuition fees of £9,000.
These are paid through upfront, government-backed loans with repayments beginning once the graduate starts earning £21,000 a year.
The report says poor students could rack up loans of about £53,000 for a three-year course once the new maintenance loans are included.
It is assumed that students from richer homes would be helped financially by their parents.
However, it notes that since the change to higher fees of £9,000, only 5% of students are thought likely to pay back their loans fully by the age of 40, compared with half of students under the old system.
It questions whether the system is value for money for the student and for the taxpayer and calls for the Office for Budget Responsibility to conduct an investigation into this.
"The OBR should investigate the system as a whole including the impact of this latest measure on likely repayments.
"The remit of this investigation should include an analysis of how the costs of higher education are now being shouldered and to what extent this is both ethical and sustainable."
The commission, chaired by Will Hutton, cautions against any "substantive increases in fees" or "removing the cap" on fees completely.
It stresses that there is still an "insufficient understanding of the long-term effects of the debts incurred in this process".
Mr Hutton said: "Debt is likely to become a bigger issue. Under the current system, nearly three-quarters of students will fail to clear their student loans before they are written off after 30 years, and the large majority will still be paying off their loans well into their forties, figures that will increase with the abolition of grants and increase in fees.
"At the same time, it looks increasingly likely that any anticipated gains to the Treasury will be largely wiped out by these non-payments."
Previous research by the Sutton Trust found that the Exchequer is forecast not to recoup around 45% of its loans.
A Department for Business, Innovation and Skills spokesperson said: "We are committed to giving everyone the opportunity to get a degree, regardless of their background or ability to pay.
"Students will get more money in their pockets to help with living costs and lifting the cap on student numbers means that more people will be able to benefit from higher education than ever before.
"The Budget was clear that only institutions offering high-quality teaching will be able to increase tuition fees in line with inflation from 2017-18."


(Close): The Nasdaq and S&P 500 closed at new record highs after US tech firms reported strong first quarter profits.

The index rose 36.02 points to close at 5,092.08. It ended Thursday at a record high, surpassing a level it last reached in 2000 at the height of the dot-com bubble.
The S&P 500 index gained 4.76 points to 2,117.69, a new high.
The Dow Jones added 21.45 points to finish the week at 18,080.14.
Amazon was the biggest winner on the Nasdaq. It boosted the tech-heavy index significantly, after shares in the firm rose by by more than 14%, in the wake of revelations about its cloud computing services on Thursday. The company's value now stands at $206.7bn (Â£136.1bn).
The Dow's leader was Microsoft, which saw its share price spike over 10% after it beat growth expectations.
Time Warner Cable's shares rose slightly, notching a 0.57% gain, after the cable TV giant announced it had abandoned its $45bn proposed takeover of rival Comcast, whose shares also closed slightly higher, up by 0.69%.
Xerox was one of the biggest losers on the Nasdaq, closing down 8.75%. On Thursday, the office supplies company reported a 6% fall in quarterly revenue.


Families of the victims of the Birmingham pub bombings have been told they can apply for legal aid.

The government has intervened to remove legal barriers which had stopped their Northern Ireland-based solicitors from applying for funding.
Inquests into the deaths of the 21 people killed by the IRA in November 1974 are due to resume later this year.
Sir Oliver Heald QC, Minister for Legal Aid, urged the firm to now "seize this opportunity to access the funds".
Read more on this story and others in Birmingham and the Black Country
He said: "It would be a travesty for families to be denied justice simply because of a technicality.
"Which is why I have taken the decision to change the regulations around inquest funding.
"This will remove any barrier from the families' solicitors in applying for legal aid funding for the inquest."
Julie Hambleton, whose sister Maxine died in the atrocity, said: "It appears the empty rhetoric has become reality."
She believes the families should never have had to fight so hard in the first place.
She added: "All we want is what any family would want and that is an inquest and to be able to fully participate in it, and the fact that we seem to have been dragged through the mud the way we have, begging and screaming for it beggars belief.
"However, I'm glad and pleased to be able to say that political common sense has prevailed with cross-party support."
Preliminary hearings are expected to take place on 23 February in Birmingham.
At a previous hearing in November, the coroner due to hear the inquests, Peter Thornton QC, said he supported the families' claim for legal aid, but had no powers to grant it.
In a statement, a spokesman for KRW Law, which is representing the majority of the families, said it would be able to apply for funding once a proposed new amendment to the Civil Legal Aid Procedures Regulations bill was made law.
Its lawyers have so far been working for free, while legal teams for police and other government branches have been taxpayer-funded.
A spokesman said: "We have not yet seen the amended regulations but we have been assured by the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) and the Legal Aid Agency that the reforms are as being reported.
"This is a positive development for our clients who have continued to insist in being represented by KRW LAW LLP.
"Their perseverance and commitment has turned the rhetoric of the politicians into reality and we welcome this development."
One of the victims' families - represented by Liverpool-based Broudie Jackson Canter - had their legal aid request granted days before inquest proceedings began last year.
Mr Thornton has said the inquests could reopen from September.
No-one has ever been brought to justice for the 21 murders, although members of the IRA are believed to have been responsible.
Six men were arrested and later jailed, but claimed in court confessions were beaten out of them.
After two appeals, the Birmingham Six, as they became known, were freed in 1991.


Apple has been granted a permit to test self-driving cars on the streets of California.

It has long been known that Apple is working on automotive-related projects, but the company has never publicly confirmed any details.
The news was made public by California’s Department of Motor Vehicles on Friday.
The agency said Apple has been given permission to test three cars manufactured by Lexus.
Apple has not commented - other than to point to its letter late last year expressing an interest in the technology.
The company was "excited about the potential of automated systems in many areas, including transportation”, it said at the time.
Rumours about Apple’s car ambitions have ranged from speculation it was building its own car to the suggestion it was instead focusing more on in-car software.
Internally known as Project Titan, the project at one point was understood to have more than 1,000 employees working on it, though the current scale of Apple’s efforts is unknown.
Encountering self-driving cars in California is a daily occurrence for those living around Silicon Valley. Apple has become the 30th company to be granted a testing permit.
Among the stipulations for approval is the requirement to regularly report back statistics on the performance of the technology - including how often humans have to intervene when the computer gets it wrong.
Apple's competitors have already been testing autonomous vehicles. Last year Waymo - a company spun out of Google's self-driving programme - clocked up 635,868 miles in California. Statistics showed a human had to step in on average once every 5,000 miles of driving.

A babysitter has been jailed for 16 years for giving a three-year-old boy to a known paedophile who drugged and raped him.

Claire Semmens, 28, of Cardiff, handed the boy to Aaron Hughes, who was jailed for life for sex attacks on the toddler.
She admitted causing a child to engage in sexual activity and possessing indecent images at Cardiff Crown Court.
Hughes admitted rape and possessing indecent images.
The court heard Hughes, 32, who has a previous conviction for raping a six-year-old boy, filmed the abuse of the sedated child on his mobile phone so he could watch it on his computer.
He was caught when police did a routine check on his computer because they believed he had breached a court order by downloading child abuse images.
Semmens ran babysitting services from her flat in Cardiff, regularly looking after boys aged between three and six, the court heard.
When Hughes and his boyfriend Hamish Morgan moved into a flat next door the three became close friends. But the court heard Semmens was attracted to Mr Morgan and hoped that by providing children to Hughes it would clear the way for her to have a relationship with him.
Prosecutor Laurence Jones told the court Semmens not only supplied the boy to Hughes but allowed him to abuse him in her bedroom.
"By her own admission Semmens knew Hughes was a child sex offender who was banned from having any contact with children," said Mr Jones.
"But she was trying to satisfy Hughes's perversions for young male children."
The court heard police said Semmens had "developed a taste" for child abuse images and police found images of two other boys she had looked after on her computer.
Hughes and Semmens went on the run when they realised police were on to them.
When they were arrested Hughes told police he suffered from a multiple personality disorder and was not responsible for raping the boy.
Kevin Seal, defending Semmens, said she was a person of "hitherto clean character" until she met Hughes.
Mr Seal said: "She was induced by him, under his spell, ultimately to make the sacrifice that she did to allow the child in her care to be on his own with Hughes in her room.
"There is a breach of trust and none can think of any worse.
"There is no punishment from this court that will match what she will feel for the rest of her life - which will live with her forever."
Hashim Salman, defending Hughes, admitted "very little can be said on his behalf" but told the court the paedophile had been sexually abused as a child himself.
Mr Salman said: "The horrific events at such a young stage of his life must have had a profound affect upon him.
"He has not had any contact with his family since the year 2000 and there are issues of vulnerability.
"He suffers with depression and has made a previous attempt on his own life."
Judge Phillip Richards said he took Hughes' own child abuse into account when deciding his sentence.
But he added: "It just shows what harm there is from offences of this nature.
"It unfortunately doesn't just merely ruin people in one generation but it has the tendency to go on from generation to generation."
The judge described their crimes as "genuinely horrendous".
"It almost defies belief that any human being would do such a thing to such an innocent young child," he said.
"You, Semmens made that child available not once but twice to your paedophile friend and permitted him to carry out his vile activities with that young child in your bedroom.
"You knew full well he was a child abuser and the level of breach of trust is probably worse than Hughes."


MP Michael Moore has held a series of meetings with mobile phone firms to improve signal reach and quality in the Scottish Borders.

Officials from Scottish Borders Council and the Scottish Futures Trust were also due to be in attendance.
Mr Moore, who represents Berwickshire, Roxburgh and Selkirk, was scheduled to meet Vodafone, O2, EE, Three, Arqiva, Airwave and Ofcom in Westminster.
He wants them to tackle so-called "not spots" in the south east of Scotland.
"Improving the communications infrastructure in the Borders is essential and through the Borders Digital Forum I have been working on this issue over a number of years," he said.
"4G is the latest generation of voice and data which is already widely available elsewhere in the country.
"Meanwhile, many areas of the Borders have limited or no voice and data services at all."
He said mobile companies had to "live up to their obligations to tackle poor service in rural areas like the Borders".
"There have been welcome initiatives from individual companies recently, but much more is needed," he said.
"I look forward to having a constructive dialogue with each company and I look forward to them taking decisive steps to improve the service we receive in the Borders.
"Poor mobile phone signal is damaging the local economy and extremely frustrating for local people, it is absolutely vital that we see a significant improvement in coverage, as soon as possible."


The Royal Mint in Rhondda Cynon Taff has announced new full-colour coins featuring Beatrix Potter characters to celebrate 150 years since her birth.

The Beatrix Potter range was announced at the beginning of 2016, and the Royal Mint in Llantrisant has now added four full-colour coins.
It said Peter Rabbit's "famous blue jacket" would be brought to life in detail.
Plain metal circulation versions will also appear later this year.


UK manufacturers are enjoying a strong start to the year and are confident about the outlook, according to their industry body, the EEF.

Its survey of 322 companies, conducted during January and February, showed stronger output and orders than in the final quarter of last year.
Measures of recruitment and investment intentions were at the highest level recorded by the survey.
Export orders were up strongly from the previous quarter.
EEF chief economist Lee Hopley said: "This is the most positive set of indicators we have seen for some time, demonstrating that we've not just turned the corner, we're actively heading down the right road."
Ms Hopley added: "Manufacturers are clearly feeling more confident as their order books fill up and exports are strong.
"It is now vital that government does all that it can to underpin support for companies, giving manufacturers the confidence to fulfil their investment and recruitment plans."
The EEF survey, carried out jointly with accountancy firm BDO, concluded that the country's manufacturers were benefiting from a combination of strong UK sales and a boost in overseas trade.
In the rest of the world, particularly Europe, "the situation is more stable that it has been for a number of years and we've seen a pick up on export orders in our survey," Ms Hopley told Radio 4's Today programme.
The survey saw industries such as rubber and plastics production help boost output, as well as more traditional sources of growth in the UK, such as motor vehicle manufacture and aerospace engineering, said Ms Hopley.
However, the EEF added that the "ultimate test" for long-term economic recovery would be whether firms' intentions to invest and hire more staff could be translated into action.
"The Chancellor [George Osborne] must therefore gear his Budget this week to secure the best possible business conditions to support these investment and growth ambitions," the report said. "The key thing for manufacturers is what's happening to energy prices,'' said Ms Hopley, ahead of the Budget.
Jonathan Portes, director at the National Institute of Economic and Social Research said the recovery was being driven by consumer spending, which has been propped up by increasing house prices, which is ``the same old story for a British recovery.''
"Business investment is still well below where it was five or six years ago, so there's an awful lot of ground to make up," Mr Portes said on the Today programme.


Labour would "look to" remove a cap on household benefits but has not yet costed the measure, the shadow work and pensions secretary has told the BBC.

Last week a High Court judge said the curb meant "real misery" for families with children aged under two.
Labour's Debbie Abrahams told the BBC the party would consider removing the £20,000 limit on household benefits if it came to power.
Ministers say the cap encourages work and help is on offer for lone parents.
The cap, first introduced in 2013 but reduced in 2016, limits the income households receive in certain benefits. The idea behind it was that no household should get more in benefits than the average working household.
Single parents win benefits challenge
Is the cap working?
Cap starts amid fears for single parents
The cap now stands at £23,000 for those in London and £20,000 a year outside London. Parents must work for at least 16 hours a week to avoid the cap.
But four lone parent families won a judicial review last week. Their solicitor said their benefits were, or were expected to be, cut as they were unable to work the 16 hours required.
The government says it will appeal against that ruling.
Mrs Abrahams, the shadow work and pensions secretary, said a Labour government would "make sure we would uphold the ruling from the court decision".
Asked whether the cap would go altogether under a future Labour government, Mrs Abrahams said: "We would be looking to see how we do that."
She admitted that Labour had not yet costed the measure but said: "We know that, for example, the court ruling is about £50m so it's not an astronomical figure."
She said she recognised that for some people the capped level "might seem like an awful lot of money".
However, she highlighted "the implications for people in the poorest circumstances, the implications around child poverty which affects children not just while they're young but for the rest their lives - it affects how their brains develop and everything."
Last week a judge in London ruled he was "satisfied that the claims must succeed" against the work and pensions secretary.
Mr Justice Collins said: "Whether or not the defendant accepts my judgment, the evidence shows that the cap is capable of real damage to individuals such as the claimants.
"They are not workshy but find it, because of the care difficulties, impossible to comply with the work requirement."
The solicitor who represented the claimants said she thought around 17,000 families were affected by the cap in this way.
A Department for Work and Pensions spokeswoman said: "The benefit cap incentivises work, even if it's part-time, as anyone eligible for working tax credits or the equivalent under Universal Credit, is exempt.
"Even with the cap, lone parents can still receive benefits up to the equivalent salary of £25,000, or £29,000 in London, and we have made discretionary housing payments available to people who need extra help."


Twenty eight Russian competitors face disciplinary proceedings after their urine samples from the 2014 Winter Olympics were allegedly manipulated.

The samples were highlighted in the McLaren report, which outlined a state-sponsored doping programme in Russia between 2011 and 2015.
Now the International Olympic Committee (IOC) is reanalysing the samples, which it warns could lead to sanctions.
The Russian city of Sochi hosted the 2014 Winter Olympics.
According to McLaren's report - which was commissioned by the World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) - salt and coffee were used to manipulate Russian samples and there were also cases of female ice hockey players having male urine samples.
"This is the immediate follow-up to Professor McLaren's report," said IOC president Thomas Bach.
"The IOC will go beyond the findings of the report by reanalysing all the samples of all the Russian athletes who participated in the Olympic Winter Games Sochi 2014, as well as all those who participated in the Olympic Games London 2012."
Samples from the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver will also be retested in the wake of the McLaren report, which stated over 1,000 Russian athletes - including medallists - had benefited from the doping programme.
Russian President Vladimir Putin has criticised Grigory Rodchenkov, one of the whistleblowers whose information led to the report.
Rodchenkov used to head Russia's anti-doping laboratory and has admitted to doping athletes.
Putin said: "Do you know where he worked before that? In Canada. And then what did he do? He came to Russia and... kept bringing in all sorts of filth."
The 64-year-old admitted Russia "does have problems with doping" but called on Wada to be "more transparent", insisting his country "never created the problem of doping".
Russia won 72 medals at the London Games, 21 of which were gold, and 33 medals at Sochi, 13 of which were gold.
On Thursday, it lost hosting rights to a World Cup biathlon meeting set to be held in March and was stripped of a speed skating meet for the same month.
McLaren's report, published on 9 December, was a follow-up to an interim report he wrote in June, which led to some Russian athletes not being allowed to compete at the 2016 Olympics and a complete ban on the country from the subsequent Paralympics.


The climate deal reached in Paris is "the best chance we have to save the one planet we have", US President Barack Obama has said.

He said it could be a "turning point" for the world to take on the challenge of a low-carbon future.
China, the world's biggest polluter, also hailed the deal. But some campaigners said it did not go far enough to protect the planet.
The Paris pact aims to curb global warming to less than 2C (3.6F)
Nearly 200 countries took part in tense negotiations in the French capital over two weeks, striking the first deal to commit all nations to cut emissions.
The agreement - which is partly legally binding and partly voluntary - will come into being in 2020.
COP21: In summary
Describing the agreement as "ambitious", President Obama said: "Together, we've shown what's possible when the world stands as one."
"In short, this agreement will mean less of the carbon pollution that threatens our planet and more of the jobs and economic growth driven by low-carbon investments."
However, Mr Obama admitted that the pact was not "perfect".
China's chief negotiator Xie Zhenhua agreed that the Paris plan was not ideal. But he added that "this does not prevent us from marching historical steps forward".
China earlier said rich developed countries needed to offer more financial support to developing countries.
Giza Gaspar Martins, the chairman of the group representing some of the world's poorest countries, said: "It is the best outcome we could have hoped for, not just for the Least Developed Countries, but for all citizens of the world," he said.
But Nick Dearden, director of campaign group Global Justice Now, said: "It's outrageous that the deal that's on the table is being spun as a success when it undermines the rights of the world's most vulnerable communities and has almost nothing binding to ensure a safe and liveable climate for future generations."
Some aspects of the agreement will be legally binding, such as submitting an emissions reduction target and the regular review of that goal.
However, the targets set by nations will not be binding under the deal struck in Paris.
The measures in the agreement included:
•         To peak greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible and achieve a balance between sources and sinks of greenhouse gases in the second half of this century
•         To keep global temperature increase "well below" 2C (3.6F) and to pursue efforts to limit it to 1.5C
•         To review progress every five years
•         $100bn a year in climate finance for developing countries by 2020, with a commitment to further finance in the future.
The speeches and the cliches at the adoption of the Paris Agreement flowed like good champagne - success after all has many fathers! The main emotion is relief. The influence of the COP president, Laurent Fabius, cannot be overstated. His long diplomatic career gave him a credibility seldom matched in this arena. He used his power well.
The deal that has been agreed, under Mr Fabius, is without parallel in terms of climate change or of the environment. It sets out a clear long-term temperature limit for the planet and a clear way of getting there. There is money for poor countries to adapt, there is a strong review mechanism to increase ambition over time. This is key if the deal is to achieve the aim of keeping warming well below 2C.
More than anything though the deal signifies a new way for the world to achieve progress - without it costing the Earth. A long term perspective on the way we do sustainability is at the heart of this deal. If it delivers that, it truly will be world changing.

Observers say the attempt to impose emissions targets on countries was one of the main reasons why the Copenhagen talks in 2009 failed.
At the time, nations including China, India and South Africa were unwilling to sign up to a condition that they felt could hamper economic growth and development.
The latest negotiations managed to avoid such an impasse by developing a system of Intended Nationally Determined Contributions (INDCs).
In these, which form the basis of the Paris agreement goal of keeping global temperature rise "well below" 2C above pre-industrial levels, nations outline their plans on cutting their post-2020 emissions.
COP 21 - the 21st session of the Conference of the Parties - will see more than 190 nations gather in Paris to discuss a possible new global agreement on climate change, aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions to avoid the threat of dangerous warming due to human activities.

Anti-fracking protesters have set up camp in Surrey close to where an oil company is starting test drilling.

UK Oil and Gas Investments (UKOG) drilled a well at Horse Hill, near Gatwick airport, in 2014.
The company later claimed there could be up to 124 billion barrels of oil under the Weald Basin.
UKOG has maintained that it does not intend to use the controversial fracking technique in its attempt to extract the oil.
One protester told the BBC: "They're talking a lot about tight oil, which is essentially the same thing as shale oil - they're just trying to avoid the f-word."
It is the second time the protesters have set up camp at the site.
Engineers are due to test the well at three levels to see how easily oil will flow.
The deepest will be into Kimmeridge Limestone about 700m (2,296ft) down, with another section in the same limestone about 650m (2,132ft) deep.
The shallowest will be into Portland Sandstone at 600m (1,968ft).
Stephen Sanderson, executive chairman of UKOG, said there would be no fracking.
"The zone we're looking at is 700m. We're not allowed to frack above 1,000m," he said.
Natalie Bennett, leader of the Green Party, visited the site on Friday in support of the protesters.
"We shouldn't be heading in this direction in Britain in 2016.
"What we need to do is be investing in renewables, investing in energy conservation," she said.
Mr Sanderson said oil supplies would "create a lot of jobs and a lot of wealth for the country".
"That's good for the local area, it's good for England, and it's good for the UK."


Strong winds reaching almost 90mph have been recorded as Storm Doris hits the British Isles.

An 87mph gust was recorded on the Galway coast in the Republic of Ireland.
Doris has caused problems for travellers on trains, on the roads and some flights have been cancelled.
The docks in Liverpool have had to be shut because of high winds.
Thousands of homes have been left without electricity in parts of the UK.
Electricity companies are working hard to restore power to places affected by the storm damage.


Ulster Director of Rugby Les Kiss has praised the character shown by his players following a month which yielded four victories from four outings.

The Irish province edged out Connacht 10-3 in their Boxing Day Pro12 game.
"You can talk about character and guts but these guys define it every week in the way they go about their business.
"We are growing with each game and we have a lot to be confident and pleased about. Teams gain confidence from winning tight matches," argued Kiss.
Prior to the last-gasp win at the Sportsground, Ulster had beaten Edinburgh in Belfast and banked back-to-back Champions Cup victories over Toulouse to boost their European hopes.
"We have won away against two teams who hadn't been beaten at home this season and we will see what that means in terms of momentum when we face Munster at Kingspan on Saturday.
"This a fairly crucial part of the year and things can change very quickly, so we won't be taking anything for granted."
The former Ireland assistant coach was fulsome in his praise of Ulster's defence in Galway, but added that the squad still have "a few things to work on".
"To defend the way we did against Connacht with the amount of ball they had, particularly in the first half, was very pleasing and shows the heart and soul of this team.
"We went off plan a couple of times but managed to get back on track. We displayed a deep resolve and a willingness to fight hard for each other.
"Our breakdown work wasn't maybe as good as it could have been and we got isolated a few times but we will work on that."
Ulster should have captain Rory Best back for the visit of Munster, having been rested for the Connacht game.
Fellow Ireland international Chris Henry should also return after injury.


South African civil engineer Naadiya Moosajee co-founded non-profit organisation WomEng to help develop the next generation of female engineers in Africa.

In the country's biggest city Aleppo there are signs that the problems could be getting even worse.
Despite that, children in Syria are trying to get by and do what they can to put a smile on their faces, as Leah's been finding out...


Former England seamer Isa Guha has become the first woman to be appointed to the board of the Professional Cricketers' Association.

The 31-year-old becomes a non-executive director of the players' union.
PCA chief executive David Leatherdale said: "Isa has a vast knowledge of the game from a men's and women's perspective.
"With our international women players now full members of the PCA, Isa will bring real insight to the PCA board."
Guha was a Women's World Cup, World Twenty20 and Ashes winner.
After retiring in in 2012, she pursued a career in broadcasting, including for the BBC's Test Match Special.
"I am delighted to be joining the PCA at an exciting time for the game here in England for our men and women at both domestic and international levels," Guha said.
"I look forward to working with the team at the PCA, and with all the many past and present players, as the country prepares for a number of major events, starting with the ICC Champions Trophy and the Women's World Cup this summer."

Turkey has lifted a ban on policewomen wearing the Islamic headscarf.

Female officers will be able to wear a headscarf under their caps or berets, provided it is plain and is the same colour as the uniform.
Headscarf bans on university campuses and state institutions - except for the judiciary, military and police - have also been lifted in recent years.
The garment has been controversial in Turkey for years. Secularists regard it as a symbol of religious conservatism.
Since the 1920s, Turkey has had a secular constitution with no state religion.
The opposition have accused President Recep Tayyip Erdogan and his Islamist-rooted Justice and Development Party (AKP) of trying to reinterpret secularism.
However, public debate has also evolved to accept the hijab as an expression of individual liberties, correspondents say.
No strong opposition has been voiced against this latest move.
President Erdogan has long embraced Turks' right to express their religious beliefs openly, but he says he is committed to secularism.
In 2010, the country's universities abandoned an official ban on Muslim headscarves.
Three years later, women were allowed to wear headscarves in state institutions - with the exception of the judiciary, military and police. That year, four MPs wore headscarves in parliament.
Most people in Turkey are Sunni Muslims.
