Woking have signed teenage striker Ben Morris on loan from Championship club Ipswich Town.

The 17-year-old has yet to make his first-team debut for the Tractor Boys, but scored twice for their under-23 side against Bristol City last Monday.
Morris has been capped by England at both Under-17 and Under-18 levels.
Woking, who are 20th in the National League table, just two points above the relegation places, have not disclosed the length of Morris' loan.


A 'fatberg' clogging up a sewerage pipe under south Belfast's Ormeau Road has now been cleared.

The blockage, caused by fats and grease mixing with waste such as baby wipes, had been causing strong smells of sewage on the upper Ormeau Road.
Des Nevin, of the water service, said the fatberg was a build-up of inappropriate materials  put into the sewer network.
"You get a mixture of rags and fats, oils and greases," he said.
"The fats, oils and greases tend to coagulate then mix along with the baby wipes and the sanitary products that get put down the sewers, and this then forms a ball that causes your blockage."
In August, a fatberg the size of a double-decker bus was found under the streets of south-west London.
Mr Nevin said the one in south Belfast was much smaller.
"The one that we're talking about here is not particularly large, but it's very much to do with the diameter of the sewer and indicative of the type of problems we would find in this diameter of pipework," he said.
"This is where problems are caused by inappropriate materials being put down the sewer network.
"The sewers can't cope and the sewers aren't designed to cope with it.
"This is about educating our customers and I don't believe our customers do this deliberately. I think it's just lack of knowledge in terms of what should go down the sewer."


National Grid has agreed to sell a majority stake in its gas pipe network to a group of investors.

The UK's power network operator said it would sell a 61% stake in the distribution business in a deal that values the division at about Â£13.8bn.
The consortium of investors is led by Australian asset managers Macquarie, with backing from Qatari and Chinese state investors.
National Grid will return Â£4bn to shareholders after the deal.
The auction for the gas network has been running for at least a year and saw the Macquarie consortium fight off a raft of competitors, including a team led by Chinese investors.
National Grid's distribution arm comprises four UK gas networks. Together they distribute gas on behalf of gas shippers to approximately half of the UK's connected households and a substantial proportion of the UK's business premises.
The deal needs clearance from the European Commission to go ahead. Assuming it is not blocked, National Grid expects the transaction to complete on or before 31 March next year.
National Grid said that the consortium was also in talks to acquire an additional 14% of the business at a similar price to the agreed transaction.
The full consortium comprises Macquarie Infrastructure and Real Assets, Allianz Capital Partners, Hermes Investment Management, CIC Capital Corporation, Qatar Investment Authority, Dalmore Capital and Amber Infrastructure Limited/International Public Partnerships.
Hermes said it had been "actively pursuing" an investment in National Grid's gas distribution business in the UK for the past year, saying it offered the prospects of "low level of operational risk" and "relative certainty of earnings".
However, one expert warned the business faced challenges.
"In buying this gas infrastructure, Macquarie and other investors are surely aware of how old the UK's gas grid is and the extent of maintenance needed to keep it going," said Jonathan Marshall, energy analyst at the Energy and Climate Intelligence Unit.
"The Climate Change Act requires the UK to cut emissions by 80% on 1990 levels by 2050, and this will impact gas use in the UK.
"The need to decarbonise residential heating is becoming increasingly apparent to the government and to the industry, and could be considered a long-term threat to the returns expected by the buyers in this deal."
Public services union Unison, which is the largest union in the gas industry, said it was "dismayed" by Macquarie's involvement in the deal.
"When Macquarie ran Thames Water, the end result was poorer customer service, higher bills, massive debts, complex tax structures and profits siphoned off to its parent company in Australia," the union said.
"Unison fears a similar fate lies in store for the UK's network of gas pipelines and the country's consumers more generally."


The oldest crocodilian eggs known to science have been discovered in the cliffs of western Portugal.

They are so well preserved that they give an insight into the "mother croc" that laid them 152 million years ago.
The prehistoric crocodile ancestor would have spanned two metres, based on the size of the larger eggs, say palaeontologists.
Crocodilians arose some 200 million years ago, when they prowled the land with early dinosaurs.
Today, they are found throughout the world and are successful predators.
"The fact that they are from the Late Jurassic makes these eggs the oldest crocodilian eggs known so far," said João Russo of Universidade Nova de Lisboa, Portugal.
"This new discovery from Portugal extends the knowledge of this type of egg by approximately 40 million years."
The eggs were laid by close relatives of "true" crocodiles, a group called crocodylomorphs.
"The fossil record tells us that crocodiles and their relatives (forming the larger group of crocodylomorphs) were much more diverse in the past, with different feeding habits, ecological niche distribution or morphology," he added.

Crocodile bones are fairly common in the fossil record. They include Sarcosuchus, the super-croc, which lived in the rivers of Africa, eating dinosaurs and fish.
Fossil eggs from the crocodile family are rarer and are often fragmented.
The eggs were found over a number of years during excavations of a dinosaur nest near the village of Lourinhã, north of Lisbon.
They were found in several clutches and appear to be of two different types. They are remarkably similar to the eggs of modern crocodiles, suggesting crocodile eggs have changed little in shape in the last 150 million years.
It is a mystery why some of the eggs of crocodiles were found in a dinosaur nest. Crocodiles are top predators today, but in the past large dinosaurs were at the top of the food chain.
The research is published in the journal, PLOS ONE.

Plymouth Argyle climbed back into the automatic promotion places with a win over relegation-threatened York City.

Jamille Matt's strike put Argyle ahead and Reuben Reid added to the lead from the penalty spot after Matt was fouled.
Will Boyle's own goal should have put the game out of reach, but York's Russell Penn pulled one back with a drilled finish after the break.
Luke Summerfield's late penalty ensured a nervy finish, but Argyle held on to close the gap on Oxford to two points.
Plymouth also have a game in hand on second-placed Oxford, who drew with Cambridge United.
York have still not won away since 5 September and are seven points from safety with seven games to go.
York City manager Jackie McNamara told BBC Radio York:

"I thought we played well, that's the frustrating thing.
"We started the game well with a few chances and a few blocks and came close.
"Three-nil at half time, obviously was a test of character and I thought in the second half we were fantastic.
"It's probably the best we've played for a while."


Pharmaceutical firm Johnson & Johnson (J&J) has been ordered by a US court to pay more than $110m (Â£85m) to a woman who says she developed ovarian cancer after using its talcum powder.

Lois Slemp, 62, from Virginia, Missouri said she developed the cancer after four decades of using talc products.
Prosecutors argued the company did not adequately warn about the cancer risks associated with the items.
Experts say links with ovarian cancer are unproven. J&J says it will appeal.
The verdict in a St Louis state court is the largest so far to arise out of about 2,400 lawsuits against J&J over its talc-based products, Reuters news agency reports.
Ms Slemp is currently undergoing chemotherapy after her ovarian cancer initially diagnosed in 2012 returned and spread to her liver.
She said the products she used included J&J's Baby Powder and Shower to Shower Powder.
"Once again we've shown that these companies ignored the scientific evidence and continue to deny their responsibilities to the women of America," said Ted Meadows, a lawyer for Ms Slemp.
The verdict included $5.4m in compensatory damages and $105m in punitive damages against J&J.
The company said it planned to appeal. "We are preparing for additional trials this year and we continue to defend the safety of Johnson's Baby Powder," it said in a statement.
"We deeply sympathise with the women and families impacted by ovarian cancer."
J&J lost three jury verdicts last year in cases related to its talc-based products, but won its first trial in March, when a jury in Missouri sided with the company.
There have been concerns for years that using talcum powder, particularly on the genitals, may increase the risk of ovarian cancer.
But the evidence is not conclusive. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies talc used on the genitals as "possibly carcinogenic" because of the mixed evidence.
The mineral talc in its natural form does contain asbestos and does cause cancer, however, asbestos-free talc has been used in baby powder and other cosmetics since the 1970s. But the studies on asbestos-free talc give contradictory results.
It has been linked to a cancer risk in some studies, but there are concerns that the research may be biased as they often rely on people remembering how much talc they used years ago. Other studies have argued there is no link at all and there is no link between talc in contraceptives such as diaphragms and condoms (which would be close to the ovaries) and cancer.
Also there does not seem to be a "dose-response" for talc, unlike with known carcinogens like tobacco where the more you smoke, the greater the risk of lung cancer.
The charity Ovacome says there is no definitive evidence and that the worst-case scenario is that using talc increases the risk of cancer by a third.
But it adds: "Ovarian cancer is a rare disease, and increasing a small risk by a third still gives a small risk. So even if talc does increase the risk slightly, very few women who use talc will ever get ovarian cancer."


Vulnerable children across the UK are likely to have lost out amid ministers' "special treatment" for failed London charity Kids Company, MPs have said.

The Public Accounts Committee said it was "staggering" government gave KidsCo more than £40m over 13 years with "no idea" what it was getting for that.
Kids Company collapsed in August amid claims of financial mismanagement - something its former bosses deny.
The government said it would consider the recommendations made by the PAC.
Kids Company said it was bemused and angered by the report as the committee had not taken evidence from the charity. The charity's founder and former chief executive Camila Batmanghelidjh has called for a further "independent" inquiry into its demise.
In a damning report published on Friday, the cross-party committee said money was ploughed into Kids Company to the detriment of "other, deserving" charities.
The charity, run by Ms Batmanghelidjh and BBC executive Alan Yentob, was given "at least £43m" from central government from 1996, and more than £4m from local authorities and lottery bodies, the PAC said.
This was "far in excess" of what other charities were given, even though Kids Company, which worked with vulnerable young people, operated "in only two London boroughs for most of its existence", said the MPs.
It is a frank report. MPs say it's "staggering" the government spent so much money on Kids Company and calls it "a failed and expensive experiment".
In fact the committee wasn't investigating Kids Company but the behaviour of senior civil servants. It didn't have much to say that was positive about them either.
It concluded civil servants knew the charity had friends at the top of government, so they gave it an easy ride and didn't raise concerns until it was too late.
This is the second committee of MPs investigating Kids Company. And more damning allegations about the charity's spending were made to the other one.
Kids Company collapsed days after receiving a £3m grant from the Cabinet Office and in the midst of a Scotland Yard investigation into allegations of historical sexual abuse.
The closure came after ministers said they wanted to recover the grant, with officials saying they believed conditions attached to the use of the money had not been met.
The PAC said decisions to fund Kids Company "were not based on evidence" and failed to follow due process.
And despite "all the warning signs" about the charity's financial situation and the impact of its work, funding "continued and was never seriously questioned, let alone stopped".
Ministers were criticised in the report for relying too "heavily" on the charity's own performance assessments.
And civil servants were accused of failing to stand up to successive ministers who, the MPs say, favoured the charity. They "have not served taxpayers or children across the country well", MPs said of the officials.

In light of the case, the committee has called for a "fundamental review" of government grants to charities and a register of such payments to improve monitoring and evaluation of organisations in receipt of public money.
Meg Hillier, Labour chair of the committee, said: "So many other charities did not get the same support and it is clear that Kids Company received special treatment - to the detriment of other deserving charities around the country."
Commenting on the report, a government spokesman said it would "consider the recommendations" put forward by the committee.
"The welfare of the young people continues to be our primary concern and we are now working closely with local authorities to make sure they have access to the services they require."
Ms Batmanghelidjh and Mr Yentob have strongly denied accusations of financial mismanagement at the charity.
The National Audit Office is investigating grants given to Kids Company, and the charity is also the subject of a statutory investigation by the Charity Commission and an inquiry by the Constitutional Affairs Committee.
But Ms Batmanghelidjh said the current investigations were insufficient because they were not "independent of government structures" and a judge-led inquiry or Royal Commission might be necessary.


Plans to limit the number of dogs that walkers can take out in a Hampshire town have triggered a row on social media.

Gosport Borough Council is considering new rules to reduce the number of dogs allowed per walker from six to four.
It is acting over complaints about dog mess and the animals being out of control.
The issue has split contributors to Facebook, with some dog owners questioning whether it is fair.
Dennis Brown wrote: "Who is to tell anyone that they can only have four dogs?
"This has no legs as it goes too far to interfere with people's rights to choices."
However, Jenny Brown posted: "I'm pleased this has come into focus. I've had so many problems when encountering larger groups of dogs."
Jackie Black also wrote in support of the plans, saying: "I agree, how do you poo-pick with six dogs? You only have one pair of hands."
The Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO) could unleash a fine of Â£100 and would require dog owners to carry something to pick up dog mess.
Dogs would also be excluded from children's areas with fixed play equipment, and sports pitches while they were in use for organised events.
The council said it had received "many complaints" from residents about people leaving dog mess in public spaces and not controlling their dogs.
Councillor Graham Burgess, chairman of the community board, said: "In a densely-populated borough like Gosport, we do believe new rules are needed."


Private radio and TV stations provide stiff competition for their public rivals.

Public broadcaster Ceska Televize (CT) operates two TV networks and a 24-hour news channel. Public radio, Cesky Rozhlas (CRo), operates three national networks and local services.
Leading private TV channels Nova and Prima are foreign-owned and broadcast nationally. There are scores of privately-owned radio stations, including market leaders Impuls and Frekvence 1. BBC World Service is available on FM in many cities and towns.
The global recession in 2008 began a process of the media returning to Czech ownership. In early 2014, Forbes.cz noted that eight out of the ten most influential figures in the media were Czech or Slovak.
Most papers' paid-for circulations have practically halved over the last decade or so. Most titles have become 'prestige' projects for their owners, who have their own commercial and/or political agendas.
In its most recent Freedom of the Press report, watchdog Freedom House gave the country a better ranking than France and the UK. Some Czech commentators questioned this positive scoring in view of media ownership becoming more concentrated and media barons getting involved in politics.
Around 8.3 million Czechs were online by 2014 (internetlivestats.com). Around 30% of Czechs were using social media by 2013, with Facebook being the leading platform. Lide.cz is a domestic social media site. YouTube.cz is a popular entertainment source for younger Czechs. In June 2013 a study showed that those in the 15 - 34 age range watched it more than any domestic TV channel apart from Nova.


Thirty firefighters have tackled a major fire at a textile plant in County Londonderry which describes itself as one of the world's oldest companies.

William Clark and Sons, based at Upperlands, outside Maghera, traces its history back to 1736.
Its website states the firm is home to "Ireland's oldest linen fabric mill".
While a 150-year old building in the complex was destroyed, management said the fire was confined to that building and the business is still intact.
The fire was spotted by a dog walker.
A Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service (NIFRS) spokeswoman said they deployed three pumping appliances and three specialist appliances to the scene.
Firefighters pumped water from the linen processor's nearby dams to fight the flames.
Thirty-five people work at the plant.
The firm's managing director, Kevin Devlin, told BBC Newsline: "The building itself seems to be pretty extensively damaged and there is some machinery kept in there and some raw materials.
"But, it's been isolated to that particular unit, so I think we've been quite fortunate in that aspect."
Company director Robert Clark said: "It will affect one process but hopefully we'll be back to normal very soon."


Great Britain's Kyle Edmund and James Ward remain in contention for the second singles place at the Davis Cup final against Belgium.

Edmund practised with Dan Evans in Ghent on Wednesday, before Ward had a lengthy hit with Andy Murray.
British number two Edmund, ranked 100, would make his Davis Cup debut in the final.
"If I get into that situation, it's something I'm going to have to deal with," Edmund told BBC Sport.
Great Britain are in the final for the first time since 1978 and hope to win their first Davis Cup since 1936, while Belgium have yet to win the team competition.
Edmund, 20, could be the first player since Spain's Feliciano Lopez in 2003 to make his Davis Cup debut in the final, and the first man ever to win a live singles rubber on a final debut.
"At the end of the day, it still is a tennis match," he said.
"Even with experience or no experience, whoever plays is going to be nervous because it's a Davis Cup final. I think that's normal. I'll just deal with it, if I play."
Ward, 28, won a dramatic five-set match against John Isner to help Britain past the United States in the first round, but was left out of the team for the semi-final win over Australia.
The Londoner, ranked 156, has won 11 singles matches since making his Davis Cup debut in 2010.
"It's not easy," he said. "Everyone wants to play in such a big competition, and obviously the final.
"But, you know, it's been a big team effort for years. It's not just about this year, it's been about the last four, five years. Many different players, even guys that aren't here this week, have played a big part in that."
Jamie Murray and Dom Inglot complete the five-man squad, with the Murray brothers expected to pair up for the doubles on Saturday after winning tight matches against France and Australia.
Captain Leon Smith has until one hour before the draw, at 13:00 GMT on Thursday, to select his final four and decide on the line-up for Friday's opening two singles matches.
The Flanders Expo will host 13,000 spectators on each of the three days of the final, and the venue has been notable for the low roof and temperature early in the week.
"The roof is low but it's approved," Belgium captain Johan van Herck said. "It's not that high and I think Andy will find a way to make the lobs - he's a good player.
"I think it will be noisy, with all the people in here it will be hot, and I think it will be worthy of a Davis Cup final."
Around 5,000 British fans are expected in Ghent over the three days, and security has been heightened following the high state of alert in the capital Brussels, 35 miles away.
"It's safe to be here but it's an awkward situation," Van Herck added. "We have to live with it. We have all the confidence in the organisation that it will be a safe event."


More than 20 industrial companies have urged the UK government to go ahead with the planned £1.3bn Swansea Bay tidal lagoon.

They said it could be crucial to meeting the UK's energy needs, in a letter to the Financial Times.
The Hendry Review - set up to consider the lagoon plan's viability - is to be published on Thursday.
The firms said the project was one of the "biggest industrial opportunities in a generation".
The co-signatories - including Sheffield Forgemasters, the steel and engineering company, and the British arm of General Electric - employ more than 42,000 workers at more than 250 UK sites.
They said: "We have at our fingertips a brand new sector that will create a multibillion-pound industry, provide tens of thousands of jobs across the country and create a significant local supply chain. All of this before we even think about the massive potential as a British export technology."
Those behind the new manufacturing and energy sector believe it can deliver sustainable, locally-produced electricity for about a hundred years.
There is cautious optimism that the Hendry Review, which is looking into the economic viability of the scheme, will give a thumbs up.
However, questions have been raised over the project, both in terms of its scale and its related electricity strike price - the government subsidy required for the power generated.
Tidal Lagoon Power, the company behind the plan, has said it is "confident" it could hit a "viable" electricity strike price, having also dismissed engineering and environmental impact concerns.
The project received planning consent in June 2015 from the then energy secretary Amber Rudd before the UK government commissioned former energy minister Charles Hendry to scrutinise whether it was a "cost-effective" solution.
The Swansea tidal lagoon project has been described as heralding a new industrial era. That may be over-egged but, if Swansea gets the go-ahead and if more lagoons follow, it could be that some of the parts for those lagoons would still be made in Wales. Certainly for Cardiff and Newport.
The company Tidal Lagoon Power is very ambitious. It is already talking about developing the technology in Gujarat in India. The challenge for Wales would be to develop an expertise which could benefit from similar projects internationally.
But we also need to remember that we will not know for sure until Thursday what the Hendry Report actually says and what the UK government response will be.
There are a number of variables. Even if it's a green light for the Swansea lagoon, the project still has to get a Marine Licence from the Welsh Government. That would not be automatic as there is significant opposition from environmental groups and anglers who fear the effects the Swansea lagoon might have, in particular, on fish breeding grounds.
Firms hoping to be part of the project's complex supply chain will have a much better idea of whether the UK is going to embrace this new source of energy generation on Thursday, but there may well be questions about the detail.
The Hendry Review was originally expected to be published last year but will now be released on Thursday.
However, those supporting the lagoon scheme believe it could generate enough clean energy from the ebb and flow of the tide to satisfy 11% of electricity consumption in Wales.
The wider plan is for the lagoon in Swansea Bay to be a prototype and the smallest in a series.
If approved, it would be followed by lagoons in Cardiff - east of where Cardiff Bay is now - Newport, Bridgwater Bay, Colwyn Bay and west Cumbria, north of Workington.
In their letter to ministers, the firms said the UK must have the confidence to embrace its "first-mover advantage" in a project which would boost the economy and employment.
"The world-first Swansea Bay tidal lagoon would use unproven, yet cutting-edge technology to provide a pathfinder for a fleet of larger projects which, if approved, could power up to a third of UK homes for the next five generations. It will catalyse a new British engineering and construction industry," they said.
Pembroke Dock-based engineering firm Ledwood and Goodwin Steel Castings, of Stoke-on-Trent, were also among the list of signatory companies.


A hoard of silver coins dating back to Roman times has been found in a village near Norwich, it has been revealed.

A metal detector enthusiast unearthed the 26 silver coins, which were issued between 154BC and AD37.
The precise location of the discovery is not being revealed in a bid to deter illegal treasure hunters.
Norwich Castle Museum expert Adrian Marsden said more coins could still be hidden at the site, where two previous hoards have been found.
He said about 100 other coins dating from the same period had been discovered in the area in two batches unearthed in September 2012 and August 2013.
The most recent find was made in the autumn of 2014.
Mr Marsden said these coins were "probably the property of a soldier, or at least a Roman citizen, soon after the invasion of Britain".
He estimated them to have been worth about six months of salary for a Roman soldier.
The latest find, which the museum hopes to acquire for its collection, will go before the coroner on 5 October.


Ryan Jackson was an unlikely match-winner as Gillingham went top of League One with a 2-1 victory over Bury.

The right-back gave the Gills a first-half lead, before his dangerous cross was turned into his own net by Bury captain Antony Kay in the second period, with Tom Pope pulling one back in vain.
The opener came in the fifth minute after Mark Byrne's chipped through-ball found the overlapping Jackson, who took a moment to steady himself before sliding the ball under Ben Williams.
Two minutes before the break, Emmanuel Osadebe met Paul Konchesky's cross and thumped a header against the bar and a Josh Wright long-range volley drew a stunning save from Williams.
Gillingham's second came in the 57th minute when Bury skipper Kay tried to clear Jackson's low cross but skewed past his own goalkeeper.
Bury were back in it nine minutes later, though.
Tom Soares crossed for Pope to plant home a header into the bottom corner but they could not find an equaliser.
Report supplied by the Press Association.

Here's why the Aussies decided Herbert Badham's oil painting, Snack Bar (1944) should not be allowed to leave the country to hang on a wall in its owner's London pad.

"The subject matter, which graphically records the interaction of different races, associating in congenial circumstances at a time of great danger for Australia is deeply impressive."
Does it? There doesn't appear to be much "interaction" to me. The Americans are depicted as either lecherous chancers (see the facial expression on the woman being chatted up by the seated sailor), or crashing bores (the well-to-do gent at the table makes plain his low opinion of the sailor to his right).
And what do they mean by "races"? Are they talking about Americans and Australians, or the depiction of a single black GI?
If it's the latter, the welcome seems decidedly frosty to me. He's on the outer margins of the room, the girl he is hitting on looks like she wishes he'd go away, and most of the rest of the room has its back to him.
The true unifying element is suggested by the packed snack bar: the food and drink down at the Hasty Tasty in Kings Cross were pretty decent back in 1944, which is fine up to a point - congenial, even - but hardly cause for a chest-puffing expression of national pride.
As a piece of socio-political art, it's hardly Guernica. Nor is it on a par with the early 20th Century paintings of Walter Sickert, whose depictions of Camden Town's more "colourful" characters informed, in part, Herbert Badham's realist aesthetic.
Sickert was doing with paint what Dickens had done with words: that is chronicling the underbelly of London life. Badham's take on Sydney's urban interior was nothing like as dark.
He had a similar interest in the everyday, in the bars, and shops, and street scenes of the city, but where Sickert's paintings contained a sense of menace, Badham's presented a largely benign, sometimes jolly, world.
But that doesn't mean they aren't worthy of our attention or respect.
The way in which he groups his characters in Snack Bar is impressive, as is his confident handling of light and form, and sense of rhythm. Which is why, I imagine, the painting sold for around four times its estimate at auction last year.
It's a decent work of art by a largely underappreciated Australian artist whose slightly naÃ¯ve take on modernist realism has aged well.
I don't think Snack Bar merits a national export ban on the basis of its narrative content, but I do think it should remain in the country for its technical and aesthetic qualities.


A third person arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following a shooting outside a pub in Bristol, has been released on bail.

The 17-year-old boy was arrested after a 34-year-old man was shot in the shoulder outside the Jolly Roger pub in All Hallows Road, Easton on Saturday.
A 15-year-old boy and a man, 29, also arrested on suspicion of the same offence were bailed on Monday.
Police are continuing to appeal for witnesses to contact them.


A cheap drug, which is already prescribed for arthritis, could fight amoebic dysentery, according to researchers in the US.

They were testing old drugs to see if any killed the dysentery bug.
Tests on animals,
          published in Nature Medicine
, showed that auranofin was 10 times more effective than the best drug currently available.
Further studies will be needed in humans, but researchers say it holds great promise.
Amoebic dysentery is caused by Entamoeba histolytica, which infects the bowels. It results in severe diarrhoea including bloody stools. More than 70,000 people are thought to die from the disease each year - most are in developing countries.
US researchers tested 910 drugs, some of which had already been shown to be safe for human use, on amoebas in the laboratory.
It showed that auranofin was much better than the current treatment, metronidazole, at killing Entamoeba histolytica.
Follow-up experiments showed that it was also more effective at treating mice and hamsters which had been infected with the ameoba.
It has been prescribed to patients with rheumatoid arthritis since 1985.
One of the researchers, Prof James McKerrow, from the Sandler Center for Drug Discovery at the University of California, San Francisco, said: "When we're looking for new treatments for the developing world, we start with drugs that have already been approved.
"If we can find an approved drug that happens to kill these organisms, we've leapfrogged the development process that goes into assessing whether they are safe, which also makes them affordable throughout the world."
Prof Sharon Reed, from the University of California, San Diego, said: "Because auranofin has already been approved for use in humans, we can save years of expensive development.
"This new use of an old drug represents a promising therapy for a major health threat."
Dr Graham Clark, a reader in molecular parasitology at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, said metronidazole was very effective, but it did have side effects and was not always successful.
He said: "The work presented in this paper is particularly useful as it identifies an existing drug, auranofin, that has already been tested and approved for use in humans, which seems to be at least as effective as metronidazole.
"Although auranofin has to date only been tested in animal models of amoebic disease, this means that there is now a potential alternative treatment for individual cases where metronidazole fails to cure the infection or in the event resistance to metronidazole emerge as a clinical problem in the future."


Dog owners are being urged to take selfies with their pets as part of a campaign to mark a year since a dogs' home was destroyed by fire.

Sixty animals died in the arson attack on Manchester Dogs' Home last September. More than 100 dogs were rescued from the fire by volunteers.
Staff have asked dog owners to post photos online using the hashtag #hugyourhound.
A spokeswoman said the idea was intended to be "a show of solidarity".
"It's celebrating the bond between people and dogs, because that's what moved so many people to help," she said.
Hundreds of volunteers helped the home's residents, arriving at the scene of the fire with blankets, toys and food.
Steve Mapley, the home's manager, said: "During our darkest time, we were buoyed and hugely encouraged by the incredible wave of love and support we received."
Well-wishers went on to raise more than Â£2m to help rebuild the facility, in Moss Brook Road, Harpurhey, which will partially reopen later this month.
A three-year-rebuild project is continuing at the site, where a small block will reopen for adoptions "imminently".
Greater Manchester Police has also issued a new appeal for information.
Ch Insp Neil Jones said: "On the first anniversary, we are hoping that the memories of that night may prompt people's thoughts.
"I am appealing to members of the community to search their consciences, and if they have any information about who was behind this deliberate attack, then please do the right thing and call us."
Two teenagers were held on suspicion of arson but released without charge.


An 88-year-old man has died following a fire at a house in Lossiemouth.

Police and firefighters were called to the fire, in Elgin Road at its junction with Inchbroom Road, at about 16:10 on Wednesday.
The body of the elderly man was found inside. His name has yet to be released. No-one else was injured.
Police said a joint fire investigation would take place but their initial inquiries suggested there were no suspicious circumstances.


Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini says the club's failure to sign striker Robin van Persie in the summer could cost them the Premier League title.

Mancini says he was "very close" to signing Van Persie, who has scored 14 goals in 20 games following a £24m move to Manchester United from Arsenal.
"Robin van Persie is a very important player for United," said Mancini, whose side trail United by seven points.
"He has changed their situation. He is the difference between us."
We were very close three or four months before he joined United
Van Persie, who scored 37 goals for Arsenal last season, was linked with City before deciding to sign for rivals United.
"We wanted Van Persie because we knew he could be an important player," added Mancini.
"He is totally different from our other strikers. We wanted him for the Champions League and for the Premier League.
"We were very close. We were sure he was for us but this did not happen and now we can do nothing. We were very close three or four months before he joined United."
Mancini said he knew why City failed in their bid to sign the Dutchman but would not elaborate. When asked if it related to money, the Italian said: "It is not the problem."
Mancini added he retained faith in his striker options of Sergio Aguero, Carlos Tevez, Edin Dzeko and Mario Balotelli despite the quartet struggling to find the back of the net recently.
"I am happy, very happy," he said. "Last year we were the team that scored the most goals in the Premier League.
"But when you can improve your team with another top player, this is important. With Van Persie we would play with three strikers sometimes."


Ray McKinnon played down suggestions that goalkeeper Cammy Bell is on his way from Dundee United to Kilmarnock.

The United boss has signed Harry Lewis on loan from Southampton and Deniz Mehmet from Port Vale and negotiations have taken place with Kilmarnock, with Bell keen to return to Rugby Park.
"There is no situation," McKinnon told BBC Scotland ahead of a 2-0 League Cup win over Raith Rovers at Tannadice.
"Cammy has an injury and we wanted to make sure we had plenty of cover."
Paul McMullen and James Keatings scored their first United goals in the Group C tie.
McMullan broke the deadlock when he curled a shot high into the corner to beat Raith goalkeeper Aaron Lennox.
Keatings' scored from the penalty spot in the second half to make the points safe for the home side.
However, it is Cowdenbeath who occupy top spot in the group, on goals scored, after they won 4-2 against Highland League champions Buckie Thistle.
United's best effort in the first half came in the opening minute when McMullan hit a low shot with the right foot after cutting in from the left to test Lennox, who fumbled but held the ball at the second attempt.
Raith should have gone ahead when Mehmet mishit a clearance straight at Greig Spence who squared to Liam Buchanan, but his 20-yard effort towards an open goal was headed off the line by Mark Durnan.
Keatings' shot after the restart brought a save from Lennox and the tempo of the game went up a notch, then a touch of class from McMullan from the left of the box saw him pick out the top corner for United's opener.
Keatings made it 2-0 from the spot when Ian Davidson bundled on-loan midfielder Sam Stanton off the ball to concede a penalty.
Billy King fired a low shot which Raith keeper Lennox saved at full stretch, then Buchanan missed a chance to pull one back for Raith from 14 yards.
At Central Park, Craig Dorrat gave Buckie Thistle the lead but David Syme scored the first of two goals to equalise.
Cameron Muirhead rounded the goalkeeper to put the home side ahead, and though Drew Copeland levelled Syme's second restored the lead.
Ryan Connelly's fantastic solo goal rounded off the win for Billy Brown's side.

A song released to raise money for a tribute statue to the late frontman of the Wurzels, Adge Cutler, has failed to sell a single copy.

Tribute band, The Cornish Wurzells, released their song Drink Up Yer Scrumpy as an mp3 download in November.
Keyboard player Terry Pascoe, who also played in the Wurzels in the 1980s, said no-one had bought a copy.
The group wants to raise Â£40,000 for a statue to be erected in Mr Cutler's home town of Nailsea, North Somerset.
"We've not had a single download from either iTunes or Amazon," said Mr Pascoe.
"But we're not quitters, we'll let it run its course and review it in a year's time."
He said the idea for a life-sized bronze statue may have to be abandoned if not enough money is raised.
The Wurzels had hits with songs such as Combine Harvester and I Am A Cider Drinker in the 1970s.
"Without Adge there would be no Combine Harvester or Cider Drinker," said Mr Pascoe.
"He was a quality writer, there's alliteration in his songs - all the things you find in classic English language."
Adge Cutler died in a car crash at the age of 42 in 1974.


Four members of a Birmingham family have been jailed for "clocking" four million miles off vehicle odometers in what was described in court as "a professional operation".

Waseem Hussain, 27, Nadeem Hussain, 29, and father Abid Hussain, 54, all of Mary Road in Stechford, and Shahid Mahmood, 44, of Heather Road, Small Heath, were convicted of fraud.
The terms ranged from 18 to 61 months.
The case was brought after "numerous" complaints to Birmingham City Council.
Barbara Dring from the council said she believed it to be the biggest investigation into car clocking Birmingham trading standards had carried out.
"The distance dishonestly taken off the cars sold by this family is almost 10 times the distance to the moon and back.
"Not only is the mileage wrong but it is misrepresented, and as such could also have major mechanical problems that could put passengers' safety at risk".
The four were caught after trading standards officers monitored the Auto Trader car sales website, and discovered the family used several business names to sell seemingly low mileage cars.
Investigators arranged to buy a used Audi A8 advertised as having 125,000 miles on the clock - but checks revealed it had done more than 250,000 miles.


Championship side Millwall have loaned teenage defender James Brown to Carlisle United until 1 January.

The 19-year-old full-back, who made his one first-team appearance for Millwall in last season's EFL Trophy, is captain of the Lions' under-23s.
Brown could make his debut for the Cumbrians at Lincoln City in League Two on Saturday.
"James is someone we've known about for a while," Carlisle United boss Keith Curle told the club website.
"He is very highly thought of and he's at a point where he needs to develop a profile within the game."

The wife of a Hong Kong bookseller who disappeared last week, and is believed to be in mainland China, has withdrawn her request for police to help find him saying he has been in contact.

A letter reportedly handwritten by her husband, Lee Bo, was published by Taiwan's Central News Agency.
It says he had gone to the mainland to work with "concerned parties".
Mr Lee is the fifth man linked to a shop selling works critical of China's government to go missing since October.
One of the men is a British citizen, the UK foreign office confirmed on Tuesday saying it was "deeply concerned".
It did not name him - but reports have said Mr Lee holds a British passport.
The disappearance of the men has raised concerns that China is undermining the territory's legal independence.
Local legislator Albert Ho has said Mr Lee - also known as Paul Lee - was kidnapped and taken to the mainland.
It's another twist in the mystery of the missing bookseller.
Human rights activists who have been advocating for the Lee family say they believe the letter is genuine.
In it, Paul Lee appears to be taking responsibility for leaving Hong Kong. And he implies he will be staying in mainland China for some time.
The activists believe the letter was indeed written by Mr Lee, but under instruction from whoever is holding him.
The intent, they say, is to tame the public outcry that has been sparked by his disappearance.
Mr Lee's wife,  Sophie Choi, had said last week that he had called her from Shenzhen, just over the border in mainland China, and told her he was helping with an investigation.
She had said his return permit, which Hong Kong citizens must show to enter China, was still at home - seen by some as evidence he may have been abducted.
But in the letter dated Sunday, which was said to have been faxed to his colleague, Mr Lee says he had "returned to the mainland using my own methods".
He also said: "I am very well. Everything is fine. And please do look after the bookstore."
Mr Lee raised the alarm when four of his colleagues at the tiny Causeway Bay Bookstore and related publishing house, Mighty Current, went missing in October.
One of them, publisher Gui Minhai, was last seen in Thailand. The other three were last seen in mainland China.
The BBC's Juliana Liu in Hong Kong says some suspect the men's disappearance is connected to a book the publisher may have been planning about an alleged former mistress of Chinese President Xi Jinping.
There has been no official comment from the Chinese government on Mr Lee's case.
However, an editorial in the Global Times newspaper, a mouthpiece for the Chinese government, on Tuesday, said some were trying to "hype" the incident "to create estrangement between Hong Kong and the mainland".


A sex attack on woman near a university campus could be linked to two other attempted assaults, investigators have said.

A woman in her 20s was pushed to the ground and assaulted by a man on a bike on Boundary Road near Bournemouth University's Talbot campus on Thursday.
Dorset Police said they believe it could be linked to two attempted sexual assaults on women in September.
Thursday's attacker is described as white and in his late 20s or early 30s.
Officers said he was approximately 5ft 7in (1.7m), of slight to medium build with short dark hair and wearing a black thigh-length coat and dark trousers.
The victim was walking down a footpath at about 21:40 GMT when the cyclist approached and then assaulted her.
The attacker was riding a dark-coloured mountain bike with silver handle bars and rode off towards Columbia Road after the assault.
Det Ch Insp Sarah Derbyshire said it could be linked to the attempted assaults of women on 13 and 14 September at Boundary Road and Slades Farm.
She is appealing for witnesses.


China's state-controlled print media declare that justice has been done after the execution of powerful Sichuan-based mining tycoon Liu Han.

The former chairman of the Hanlong Group was sentenced to death in May for "leading mafia-style crime and murder".
He is reported to have had links to disgraced security official Zhou Yongkang, who is currently under investigation for breaching party discipline - often a reference to corruption allegations.
Official media reports, however, make no mention of such links, and indeed refrain from any wider comment beyond welcoming news of Liu's execution.
"The dark evil ones face execution, justice has finally arrived," trumpets the state news agency Xinhua.
"This shows the total destruction of the mega-mafia organisation, and also fully reflects the belief and determination of the central government to pursue rule of law and clamp down on the evil and illegal forces."
Describing Liu Han and his alleged associates as the "people's enemy", the agency quotes observers as saying that the case "sends a signal" that the leadership's ambitious legal and anti-corruption reforms are gathering pace.
"The reform process is being strengthened," the report says. "There will be no 'privileged citizens' if we continue to strengthen the rule of law and improve the legal system where everyone can enjoy justice."
In contrast to the mainland Chinese media, the Hong Kong-based South China Morning Post openly connects Liu with Mr Zhou, describing him as an associate of the latter's son.
"While close ties between the business community and party officials are common in China, Liu's case has exposed in surprising detail large networks of the rich and their uncertain role in political struggles," daily comments.
On a related topic, the press also focuses on comments by Premier Li Keqiang vowing to step up anti-corruption efforts in state-owned enterprises.
Mr Li said on Monday that the government would "devolve some powers to lower levels in order to reduce scope for officials bargaining for benefits", according to Xinhua.
The premier acknowledged that corruption "still plagues the government" and called for tightening of supervision over state-owned businesses to "make sure no national property is pocketed by a small number of corrupt officials".
Backing Mr Li's call, the China Daily argues that the lack of effective supervision and accountability in the state sector is "an invitation to absolute corruption".
In a strongly-worded editorial, the daily lambasts "greedy" executives whose deeds had "reduced them to not even qualifying as citizens".
Corruption is rampant even in China's film, radio and television industries, according to media reports, with the Beijing Times highlighting several recent cases in the sector.
The areas affected include censorship, advertisement as well as content and equipment procurement, the paper says, and quotes observers as welcoming moves to "cleanse the industry and win the trust of the people".
Wang Hailin, a screenwriter, tells the Global Times that some producers promise TV station executives money to pay for their work to get past the censors, allowing "poor-quality" films and TV series onto the market.
And finally, the Global Times reports that several Chinese student representatives were expelled from an international discussion event after they protested against Taiwan being listed as a sovereign nation in the conference handbook.
The participants had been attending the Harvard Model United Nations (HMUN), at which young delegates from around the world simulate being the United Nations.
After a request by Chinese delegates for a change to the handbook was rejected "owing to copyright issues", some of them "ended up being ejected from a meeting", according to the report.
The paper's editorial takes HMUN's organisers to task, saying their "mistake" in granting Taiwan even simulated UN membership is not to be taken lightly.
"Although it's organized by students, the HMUN is a serious simulation of the real United Nations," the paper says. "The blunder should not just be brushed away."

Important Roman artwork belonging to a North Yorkshire stately home has been donated to the nation in lieu of nearly £5.5m owed in inheritance tax.

Among the Castle Howard lot are 62 Roman antiques, including sculptures and figures of god which were collected by Henry Howard, 4th Earl of Carlisle.
A total of 89 items have been allocated to National Museums Liverpool but will remain on display at the house.
They have been acquired through the government's Acceptance in Lieu Scheme.
It allows an inheritance tax bill to be paid by transferring important works of art and cultural objects to the nation.

Arts Council England said the Castle Howard collection was a "highly important group of Roman sculpture" and an "excellent example" of the collecting practices of British aristocrats of that time.
It includes a second century AD head of the satyr Silenus crowned with ivy leaves and berries and a Roman marble relief figure of a woman playing a tambourine.
Edward Harley, chairman of the Acceptance in Lieu Panel, said: "The collection has great art-historical and archaeological importance and its continued display at Castle Howard ensures that it will also be able to tell the story of two great eighteenth century collectors."
Castle Howard was designed in 1699 and was the setting for the 1981 TV series Brideshead Revisited.
The house sits in an 8,800-acre estate in the Howardian Hills, near Malton. The estate has more than 200 listed buildings and monuments.
In 2015, Roman antiques and Baroque painting were sold by Castle Howard to help secure the "long term future" of the estate.


Bournemouth have signed Republic of Ireland international Marc Wilson from Stoke City on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee reported to be £2m.

Wilson, who can play in defence or midfield, had two loan spells with the Cherries in 2007.
The 28-year-old spent six seasons at Stoke, making more than 150 appearances, and has been capped 24 times by his country.
He missed out on the Republic's Euro 2016 squad with a knee injury.
Stoke manager Mark Hughes said last week that Wilson was set to leave the club. "It's fair to say that Marc probably feels his future lies elsewhere and it's fair to say I probably agree with him," he said.
Wilson did not feature for Stoke in their 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough against Middlesbrough on the opening day of the Premier League season on Saturday.
"I enjoyed my years at Stoke but I spoke with the manager Mark Hughes and we both agreed it was time to move on - I am excited now to start a new chapter in my career," he told Bournemouth's official website.
"I didn't come to AFC Bournemouth to play in a team that's going to get relegated. I see a lot of positives in this team."

Takata Corp has denied it has calculated the cost of the global recall of its faulty airbags, after a report alleged it could be as much as 2.7 trillion yen ($24bn; £16.7bn).

On Wednesday Bloomberg reported the figure citing unnamed sources.
Takata has acknowledged some airbag inflators explode with too much force and spray metal shrapnel into the car.
The fault has been linked to the loss of ten lives globally, according the US traffic safety authority.
Takata's shares plunged 20% after the report which called it the "auto industry's biggest recall ever", but were in positive territory on Thursday.
"We have not announced anything to the effect of the report, and it is untrue that we have calculated the estimated costs (of the recall)," the Tokyo-based company said in a statement.
It also said that it was difficult to determine the recall cost given the investigation into the cause of the exploding airbag inflators was still underway.
In a worst-case scenario, Takata's recall would involve 287.5 million airbag inflators, Bloomberg reported.
The latest official figures provided on 22 January said the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) had recalled more than 5 million inflators, bringing the total recall to more than 28 million inflators in the US.
In November, Takata agreed to pay a $70m fine for safety violations and may face deferred penalties of up to $130m.


Sunderland Ladies captain Stephanie Bannon scored two own goals as Women's FA Cup winners Arsenal Ladies moved up to fourth in Women's Super League One.

Bannon headed into her own net on two minutes before poking in another, and Natalia's double put Arsenal 4-0 ahead.
After Dominique Janssen's fine fifth, Beth Mead grabbed a late consolation.
Sunderland, who last won a league match in July 2015, are three points above bottom-club Doncaster Rovers Belles, who have played four matches fewer.
In the first match after the WSL's mid-season break, Arsenal made it three wins from an unbeaten run of four matches, which includes' May's Wembley win over Chelsea.
If the Gunners' first two goals were scrappy, Natalia's brace was superb, first finishing from close range after good skill from Vicky Losada before combining with her fellow Spaniard again to send a sweet volley into the bottom corner.
Bannon did well after the break to clear a Losada effort off the line, but nothing could stop Janssen's powerful drive to make it 5-0.
Mead's low finish provided a late cheer for the visitors, who had just two shots on target and have now conceded 12 goals in their last two visits to Arsenal, following April's 7-0 cup semi-final loss.
Arsenal Ladies striker Natalia: "We didn't start very well in the league. We missed a few points and that's not very good for our confidence.
"Now, after the break, I think the new players are settling in and giving really good things to the team.
"We are a better team now and we can play like that, so we're fighting for the league until the end. It's great to be back after the break with three points."
Sunderland Ladies head coach Carlton Fairweather: "The positives from the game were that we came out in the second half and did really well.
"We got a goal, put them under pressure a bit, created a couple of chances - obviously the one we took from Beth was positive.
"At half-time I told them that we needed to be more ruthless in terms of the opportunities that we get in front of the goal, but also be positive and make sure we defend well.
"The fact we've given away two own goals and the deflected goal doesn't help, especially the first own goal, which was scored in under 90 seconds."

US industrial production grew in September as rising factory output made up for falling output from utilities.

The Federal Reserve said industrial production grew 0.2% in the month, having been unchanged in August.
Factory output grew for a third consecutive month, rising 0.4%, while utility output fell 1.8%.
Manufacturers cut 13,000 jobs in September, having cut 4,000 in August and the average working week for factory workers also declined.
Manufacturing had been among the first part of the economy to show recovery when the recession ended in 2009.
But in early 2011, higher prices for food and fuel depressed demand while the earthquake in the tsunami in Japan disrupted the supply of parts to the auto sector.
Car manufacturing is now recovering from that disruption, with auto output now having grown for the third month in a row.
There was gloomier news from the New York Federal Reserve, which said that its Empire State gauge of manufacturing in New York state had contracted for a fifth consecutive month in October.
"Today's industrial number continues the theme of situational economics, which has come up a lot lately. If you are in the right situation, you are doing OK. If you are not, you are not," said Robert Dye, chief economist at Comerica in Dallas.
"Auto and energy intensive parts of the countries are stable, but in other areas of the country, we are seeing some softness."


A friendly match between Ivory Coast and Senegal was abandoned when fans invaded the pitch in Paris.

The African sides were level at 1-1 on 88 minutes when a handful of fans broke onto the pitch, with one appearing to rugby tackle Senegal's Lamine Gassama.
Players ran from the pitch and referee Tony Chapron opted to end the fixture.
Liverpool's Sadio Mane had given Senegal a second-half lead from the penalty spot but Bi Gohi Cyriac levelled three minutes later.
L'Equipe journalist Herve Penot was in the ground and told BBC World Service the incident "could have been very serious".
He added: "I wouldn't say the people were violent, it was much more about trying to be with the players. But you never know what can happen, the organisation was a disaster, it was incredible.
"After 20-30 minutes a couple of people were on the pitch, then they couldn't start the second-half because they had people on the pitch and the referee said if it happens again he will stop the game. It was very messy."
Local media reported a group of supporters jumped over perimeter fencing at Charlety Stadium moments before the pitch invasion started.
It is the second time in five years that a game between the two countries has been called off because of crowd disturbances.
Senegal were disqualified from the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations when a riot led to a playoff between the sides being abandoned.


World champion Lewis Hamilton will start the Chinese Grand Prix from last place on the grid as Mercedes team-mate Nico Rosberg took pole.

A power-unit problem for Hamilton meant his difficult start to the season continues and his 17-point deficit to Rosberg could grow further on Sunday.
Daniel Ricciardo took second for Red Bull as Ferrari blew their challenge.
Both Kimi Raikkonen and Sebastian Vettel made errors on their final lap and could manage only third and fourth.
Despite qualifying taking place on a near dry track following heavy rain, warm and dry conditions are expected for Sunday's race, where more than 125,000 fans are expected.
The race is live on the BBC Sport website and 5 live.
The world champion, who had not done any laps in the wet final practice session earlier in the day, hit trouble as soon as qualifying started.
Hamilton said the engine felt down on power as he went out for his first lap and was called back in. Mercedes worked on the car and sent him out again but could not solve the problem.
He said: "No-one wants it easy. It's still early on. We are definitely in the mud but we will dig our way out.
"These things are sent to try us. I'm sure the guys are just as gutted as I am.
"You can overtake here. The tyres do not last too well but of course I will give it everything I've got. Hopefully they'll get the issue fixed and I'll have a race."
Raikkonen had been fastest after the first runs in the final session, on which Rosberg braked too late and went too deep into the hairpin at the end of the long straight.
But Rosberg moved into another sphere on his final run with a lap half a second clear of the field.
Vettel chose to do only one run in the top 10 shoot-out and the decision backfired on him as he made the same mistake as Rosberg had done - and Raikkonen also repeated.
Raikkonen was pipped by Ricciardo by 0.055secs, with Vettel a further 0.274secs adrift.
Ricciardo's stellar performance was underlined by the fact that he was more than 0.4secs clear of team-mate Daniil Kvyat, who was sixth behind Williams driver Valtteri Bottas.
Rosberg and Mercedes also played a clever strategic game to give themselves a potentially significant advantage in the race.
The German made it through the second session using only the soft tyre - which means he can use it to start the race. It is slightly slower than the super-soft the other leading runners will have to start on, but significantly better over a series of laps.
That raises the possibility of Rosberg simply destroying the field on his way to what would be a third consecutive win this year and sixth in a row going back to the Mexican race last October.
Rosberg said: "I'm not ecstatic because obviously Lewis had bad luck and the fight didn't happen, but obviously I'm pleased. It has been a good weekend."
Raikkonen said: "It's a shame. We had a chance to be even on the top today but we try to make the best of it in the race."
Vettel added: "We decided to save a set of tyres. I was confident I could make it in the last lap but I didn't. I wasn't happy with the lap. I made a couple of mistakes.
"Nico is starting on a different compound and we will see how the race unfolds.
"P2 was there but I had a bad lap at the end. In all honesty Nico's lap was very strong in the end."
McLaren felt they had a good shot of getting into the final qualifying session for the first time since the start of their engine partnership with Honda last year but fate intervened.
Neither Fernando Alonso nor Jenson Button had completed a run on new tyres in second qualifying when the red flag was thrown because a wheel came off Nico Hulkenberg's Force India - an incident which subsequently earned the German a three-place grid penalty.
Alonso groaned in frustration when he was told by his engineer that he did not have time to do another lap and he and Button ended up 12th and 13th.
"Massively frustrated," Alonso said. "The car has the potential to be in Q3 and we didn't see the new tyres or the full engine power.
"We were saving them until that moment, just waiting for that lap and we didn't even open the lap.
"On the positive side, we were aiming to pass Q1 a few races ago and now are are disappointed not to be in Q3 and we have free choice of tyres. Points are the target, that's for sure."
"A little bit unlucky once again," Button said. "One day we will show our true pace."
Their positions, however, do at least give them free choice of tyre strategy for the start of the race.
At the back of the grid there was a highly impressive performance from Renault's Kevin Magnussen.
The Dane had had almost no dry running going into qualifying after a suspension failure in first practice on Friday forced him to miss the second session.
But Magnussen out-qualified team-mate Jolyon Palmer, who had a much smoother weekend, by 0.9secs.

Security forces in Turkey have killed 23 suspected members of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) in two days of operations in Cizre and Silopi, authorities say.

Twenty-two were killed in Cizre while one was killed in Silopi, state-run Anatolia news agency said.
Curfews have been imposed and tanks deployed in some areas.
Cizre was placed under curfew in September, with Turkey describing the town as a hotbed of PKK activity.
Up to 10,000 police and army members have been deployed in the two towns, in south-east Turkey, since operations began earlier this week.

Turkey-PKK conflict: Why are clashes escalating?
PKK supporters have erected barricades and dug trenches, reports say.
Residents have been urged to leave their homes, with Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu saying operations would continue until "every home is cleared" of militants.
Conditions for families in Silopi and Cizre are hard.
Semsettin, 45, said his family in Silopi woke up on Wednesday to the sound of gunfire and went down to their basement to hide.
As their house is the only one in the area with a basement, 25 neighbours have joined them in the 3-4 sq m room.
"There is no electricity, it's cold and the children are suffering. There is no baby food or milk," he says.
The violence has prompted around 3,000 teachers and a large number of doctors to leave the area and a trade union representative in Silopi told me that deserted schools had been turned into barracks.
Some residents say they don't want to leave but they fear that continuing operations and curfews will force them to go.
Some government supporters and Turkish nationalists say the operations are needed to prevent the PKK youth from taking over the towns, with some accusing civilians who stay behind of either being, or harbouring, terrorists.
Turkey has seen a string of curfews in the past few months after a two-year ceasefire collapsed in July.
Hundreds have been killed in attacks from both sides since then, with the PKK targeting Turkish security forces and Turkey's military bombing PKK positions, cutting off towns in the south-east. Around 200,000 people have been displaced.
On Monday, two protesters died in a clash between police and Kurdish demonstrators over a curfew imposed in Diyarbakir.
The city was placed under curfew in November after a pro-Kurdish lawyer, Tahir Elci, was shot dead in a fight between police and unidentified gunmen. Two policemen also died.


A ban on begging and rough sleeping in Newport city centre has moved a step closer after a council scrutiny committee backed the idea.

Newport council is considering the plan ahead of a new shopping centre opening.
Councillor Matthew Evans said the committee also backed a ban on drinking alcohol in public but decided that leafleting should not be stopped.
The final decision now lies with the cabinet member for regulatory functions, Councillor Bob Poole.
Human rights organisation Liberty previously said a ban on begging and rough sleeping would "criminalise the most vulnerable in the city" and that the proposals "make a mockery of Newport's Chartist legacy".
However, Mr Evans said he and the other committee members backed the recommendation for the ban after 90% of people who responded to a public consultation were in favour.
"We want to make sure the message is sent out that the majority of people don't want to be approached by beggars or to see people rough sleeping," he said.
"This will make it easier for police to deal with the problem.
"We want to ensure the public and businesses are protected because they're the ones affected by anti-social behaviour."
Councillor Roger Jeavons, chairman of the committee, said they had listened to evidence from the police.
"We have looked at pages and pages of reports from police regarding, in particular, aggressive begging - that was the biggest issue," he said.
"People are feeling very intimidated by these sort of people who are sitting outside ATMs and car park paying machines."
The council wants to introduce a new Public Spaces Protection Order to tackle anti-social behaviour ahead of the opening of the new Friar's Walk shopping centre next month.
It consulted with members of the public about what they would like to see included, such as a ban on begging, rough sleeping, dogs who are not on leads and leafleting in the city centre.
Mr Evans added that the scrutiny committee did not back a recommendation to ban leafleting in the city centre because members did not want to damage small businesses.


When Chris Gardner and his young son were sleeping rough on the floor of a public toilet, he could never have dreamt that his life story would be turned into a hit Hollywood movie.

It was back in the early 1980s that Mr Gardner, then aged 27, and his toddler son were homeless for a year in San Francisco.
Enrolled on a low-paid trainee scheme at a stock brokerage, he didn't have enough money to raise the deposit to rent an apartment.
So Mr Gardner, who was estranged from his partner, and Chris Jr would instead sleep wherever they could.
In addition to the toilet at a railway station, they'd bed down in parks, at a church shelter, or under his desk at work after everyone else had gone home.
They ate in soup kitchens, and what little money he had was spent on putting his son in day nursery so he could go to work.
Despite this adversity, Mr Gardner thrived in his job. A natural at selling stocks and shares, at the end of his training period his firm, Dean Witter Reynolds (DWR), made him a full employee.
Finally able to rent a home for himself and his son, his career then rapidly ascended into the stratosphere, and in 1987 he opened his own investment firm, Gardner Rich.
Today Mr Gardner, 62, is worth an estimated $60m (Â£48m), travels the world as a motivational speaker, and sponsors a number of homeless charities and organisations that combat violence against women.
Add the fact that Mr Gardner had a very troubled childhood, and served time in prison immediately before the internship at DWR, and you can understand why Hollywood came calling when he was writing his best-selling autobiography The Pursuit of Happyness (the misspelling is deliberate).
The movie of the same name was released in 2006, and Will Smith was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Mr Gardner.
Looking back on his life, Mr Gardner tells the BBC that he "wouldn't change anything".
"I went through pain as a child so my children wouldn't have to," he says. "I made a decision as a five-year-old boy that my kids will know who their father is.
"The rest of my destiny came forward because I made the right choices."
Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Mr Gardner never knew his real father.
Instead he was brought up in poverty by his mother Bettye Jean and a physically abusive, alcoholic stepfather.
There was also a period spent in a foster home after his mother, in a fit of despair, tried to kill her partner.
Despite the woes of his childhood, Mr Gardner says his mum was an inspiration.
"I have one of those old-fashioned mothers who told me every single day, 'Son, you can do or be anything that you want to do or be.'
"And I believed it, I bought into it 100%."
He adds that one day as a child he was watching  a college basketball game on TV when he commented that one of the players would make a million dollars.
"My mum said, 'Son, one day it will be you who'll make a million dollars.' Until she said those words the thought had never entered my mind."
The million dollars didn't arrive immediately however, and after graduating from high school he spent four years in the US Navy.
After an honourable discharge in 1974 Mr Gardner moved to San Francisco where he started selling medical equipment.
His life then changed completely when he saw a man parking his red Ferrari one day, and Mr Gardner asked him what he did for a living.
The man was a stockbroker called Bob Bridges, and after the two got talking, Mr Gardner expressed an interest in joining the industry.
They met again, and Mr Bridges helped Mr Gardner secure an interview for an internship.
However, in the days before the interview at DWR Mr Gardner was arrested and jailed for non-payment of parking tickets.
He was ultimately able to make the interview, but only in the clothes he was wearing when he was arrested, which included trainers and a vest.
Despite the scruffy attire, his sense of drive and enthusiasm was enough to get him the job.
Six years after the release of the movie, Mr Gardner's life changed again in 2012 when his wife died from cancer aged just 55.
It made him re-evaluate what he wanted to do for a living, and after three highly successful decades in finance he decided on a complete career change.
"Some of the last conversations [my wife and I] had were her saying to me, 'Now that we can see how truly short life can be, what will you do with the rest of your life?'
"When you have that conversation, that changes everything. I've said that if you're not doing something that you're passionate about, you're compromising yourself every single day."
So realising that he didn't want to work in investment banking any longer, he reinvented himself as a motivational speaker and author.
He now spends 200 days a year travelling the world speaking to packed audiences in more than 50 countries.
Scott Burns, a director at US investment firm Morningstar, says that Mr Gardner "is just an amazing testament of fortitude".
He adds: "You can be down and out, but only as down as you let yourself be."
Mr Gardner believes he disproves the theory that we are all products of our childhood environment.
"According to that school of thought I should have become another alcoholic, wife-beating, child-abusing, illiterate loser."
Instead he says he made his own positive choices thanks to the love of his mother and support from other people.
"I chose light, from my mother, and from others with whom I don't share a single drop of blood, and I embraced it."

Great Britain's Kyle Edmund retired hurt from his first-round match at the Nice Open, casting doubt over his place at the French Open.

World number 84 Edmund, 21, took the first set 7-5 against German Alexander Zverev but hurt his ankle and retired after losing the second set 7-5.
The French Open begins on Sunday.
British number two Heather Watson, 23, lost 6-3 0-6 6-1 to Kateryna Bondarenko of Ukraine in the first round at the Internationaux de Strasbourg.


A man has been charged with attempted murder following an incident in Edinburgh which left another man in a serious condition in hospital.

A 52-year-old man was injured near a bus stop in Ferry Road at about 22:30 on Friday.
Police issued a further appeal for witnesses and were keen to hear from passengers on the number 21 Lothian Bus which was in the area at the time.
A 57-year-old man was due to appear at Edinburgh Sheriff Court on Monday.
Det Inspector Alan O'Brien said: "A man received serious injuries in this incident and he remains in a serious condition in hospital.
"I am still keen to hear from anyone who may have witnessed the incident and who can help us piece together the events leading up to it."


An inquest into the death of a teenager has been told she gave the impression of being a "happy, bright girl".

Seren Bernard, 14, was found dead in Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire, in April 2012.
She had lived with foster carers from December 2011 until her death.
During the fourth day of the Milford Haven hearing on Thursday, social worker Wendy Rodriques said Seren "engaged well" with professionals involved in her care.
She said the teenager had people caring for her that she could trust, that Seren's foster parents had formed a good relationship with her and she had an adult she could speak to at school.
The hearing was told on Tuesday that Seren said she had "no aspirations" in the weeks leading up to her death.
A serious case review last year found her death under the care of social services might not have been preventable and police ruled out crime.
The inquest will resume on 15 June.


Russia's weightlifting team has been banned from competing at the Rio Olympics because of doping offences.

Individual sport federations must rule on whether Russians can compete in Rio following the country's doping scandal.
Two of the eight-strong weightlifting team had already been banned for prior violations, and another four were named in the McLaren report into the issue.
Russia's Sports Minister said 272 of the original 387 athletes selected had been cleared to complete in Rio.
A final figure is expected on Saturday, with the federations of boxing, golf, gymnastics and taekwondo still to confirm their decisions.
The Games get under way on 5 August.
The World Anti-Doping Agency (Wada) had recommended all Russian athletes be banned from the Games, but weightlifting and athletics are the only sports to have imposed a blanket ban on Russian competitors.
The International Weightlifting Federation (IWF) took the step following a series of suspicious test results at the Beijing and London Games.
"We would like to highlight the extremely shocking and disappointing statistics regarding the Russian weightlifters," said a statement by IWF.
"The integrity of the weightlifting sport has been seriously damaged on multiple times and levels by the Russians, therefore an appropriate sanction was applied in order to preserve the status of the sport."
Tommy Yule, team leader of GB weightlifting, said: "Initial reaction is that happy that a decision has been made so that we know what the situation is with the Russian team.
"Secondly I'm happy that to see the toughest possible sanctions have been put in place."


Great Britain suffered a setback in their opening Eurobasket 2017 qualifier after being defeated 96-77 by Hungary.

They fell behind by a double-digit deficit midway into the second quarter and only occasionally chipped that down to single figures in Kecskemet.
Dan Clark and Andrew Lawrence hit 22 points each to lead GB's scoring.
They now play three home qualifiers in a row at the Copper Box in London, against Macedonia and Luxembourg and the return leg against Hungary.
For a team that has lost all five games of the summer so far, coach Joe Prunty's team played a secure, competent first quarter, trailing just 25-22 after 10 minutes.
Hungary's 11-4 start to the second period - much of it coming on the fast break after GB handling errors - brought them their first 10-point lead of the night.
Clark had 14 points at half-time and was the team's only consistent scoring threat until Lawrence hit 12 points in a row in the third quarter.
Hungary, led by a stellar performance from Adam Hanga, with 32 points, never looked likely to let GB back into the game.
To reach the 2017 finals, GB need to either win the group or finish as one of the four best runners-up from the seven qualifying groups.


The death of a woman whose body was found after an explosion which destroyed a house is being treated as murder, police have said.

Shelley Saxton-Cooper, 45, and her husband Simon were found inside a bedroom at the home in Riddings, Derbyshire.
The building partly collapsed after the blast and subsequent fire on Sunday.
Post-mortem examinations have yet to take place but Mrs Saxton-Cooper was wounded before the blast, police said.
It is not believed anyone else was involved, Derbyshire police said.
The couple has not been formally identified but police said they believe the bodies are those of Mr and Mrs Saxton-Cooper.
Ch Supt Sunita Gamblin said: "We believe that Shelley was wounded before the explosion and fire and we are treating her death as murder.
"We're still unable to say how either she or her husband died as post mortem examinations haven't been completed."
Forensic experts remain on scene investigating the cause of the fire, she added.
Emergency services declared a major incident after neighbours reported hearing a loud bang at about 07:30 BST on Sunday.
But they had to wait for the building to be declared safe after the fire destroyed much of the roof.
Jayne Titchmarsh, who lives two doors away, said the blast was "like a loud thunder."
"I ran to the window and saw debris coming down across the window and there were flames on the front," she said.
"I just couldn't believe it. The fire really took off. Everyone was shouting 'get out, get out' and I just ran with my son because we thought it was going to catch light.
"It was just really frightening. I thought it might spread."
A pet dog which escaped the blast is being looked after by relatives of the couple.

Black Friday took on another meaning in central London when a power cut plunged a large part of Soho into darkness.

Theatre shows were cancelled and shops closed as tourists and shoppers tried to enjoy the capital's night life.
UK Power Networks said 2,300 properties had been affected by the blackout which began at 17:16 GMT.
The network operator said power had been restored shortly after 21:00 and apologised "for the disruption this caused to everyone's evening".
Aladdin the Musical at the Prince Edward Theatre was one of several shows where ticketholders were told they would be given refunds after the shows were called off.
Electricity was earlier restored at shows such as Harry Potter and the Cursed Child where audience members were advised the performance would start late.
Theatregoer Sarah Ellacott said there had been "rapturous applause" at the theatre when the power returned.
Kurt Pollington, 56, who works on nearby Bond Street said there was a "weird atmosphere" throughout Soho while a lack of working traffic lights had caused "gridlock" around Shaftesbury Avenue.
The power cut did not affect the Tube network, according to Transport for London (TfL).
UK Power Networks said: "An underground electricity cable has faulted on our high voltage network causing an area wide power cut."


A man who rampaged through a Dundee mosque while on licence for seriously assaulting his sister has been returned to prison.

Donald Skene grappled with worshippers and headbutted prayers posted on the walls of the Taj Madina Mosque in Victoria Road last December.
Skene, 38, was ordered to complete 156 days of the unexpired portion of his jail term for breaching his licence.
He was also sentenced to a year's supervision following his release.
Dundee Sheriff Court was told Skene shouted: "I'm white but I'm one of you, brothers", to the Muslim congregation after being arrested.
In CCTV footage shown to the court, Skene was seen entering the mosque's wash room and wandering around crying, as members of the congregation prepared to enter the prayer room.
Depute fiscal Charmaine Gilmartin the court: "His behaviour is bizarre - attempts are made to try and calm him down."
Skene is then seen running in circles around the prayer room as worshippers speak to him.
Mrs Gilmartin said: "There are various religious texts in glass frames around the room.
"The accused punches some of them and latterly headbutts them.
"He had entered using Islamic greetings, and when he was arrested he refers to members of the congregation as brothers and shouts 'I'm white but I'm one of you'."
Ross Donnelly, defending, said: "He is very apologetic."
Skene admitted charges of breach of the peace and resisting arrest.
Allegations that the offence was religiously aggravated were deleted by the Crown.
The court was told Skene had already spent 10 weeks on remand for the offence.


Police have dropped charges of under-aged drinking against a young black man whose violent arrest sparked protests.

Martese Johnson was filmed being arrested near the University of Virginia where he is a student.
The video shows him pinned to the ground with blood streaming from his face as he accuses the police of racism.
Prosecutors said "the interest of justice is best served" by dropping the charged of drinking underage.
Speaking at press conference on Friday, Mr Johnson said he was "ecstatic" that the charges had been dismissed, and that the incident invigorated a desire to work for social justice.
The Virginia governor called for an inquiry following the arrest of the 20 year-old Chicago native by agents of the Alcoholic Beverage Control department (ABC).
The arresting officers are on desk duty until the review of the ABC is complete.


UK technology could aid a US company's ambitions to send spacecraft beyond low-Earth orbit.

Bigelow Aerospace's plans include telescopes that could be sent into deep space.
The UK's Astronomy Technology Centre (UK ATC) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Bigelow.
UK ATC has developed an infrared sensor for the US-European James Webb Space Telescope.
Bigelow's space telescope concepts include operating beyond the Moon, more than one million kilometres away at one of the Lagrange points - gravitational "sweet spots" where spacecraft can hold station without expending too much fuel.
But before any deep space mission UK technology could be tested onboard the private space station Bigelow is planning.
The space station, to be launched in 2014 and operated from 2015, will consist of three habitation modules.
Bigelow's modules are based on Nasa inflatable technology, also known as "expandable" technology.
The US company has already launched two technology demonstrator modules, Genesis I and Genesis II. Launched flat, the modules expand in orbit like a balloon to create habitable volume.
"The very purpose of expandable habitats was initially to go beyond [low Earth orbit], so they are ideal for such applications," Bigelow's Washington DC operations and business growth director Michael Gold said.
"Certainly there is a wide variety of activities that could be conducted at the Lagrange points, whether it's serving as a hub to support Lunar or Martian exploration, or supporting next-generation astronomy missions."
Because the space telescope spacecraft's design could be based on the station modules, both could use the same solar panels from Scotland.
This is because following a February meeting in Edinburgh between UK ATC, Scottish space companies and Bigelow, Glaswegian solar panel specialist Clyde Space has become a bidder for station module contracts.
It was following this Edinburgh meeting that UK ATC signed the MOU with Bigelow. To conduct discussions about possible projects the UK ATC also signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA).
Because of the NDA, the UK ATC declines to talk about its discussions with Bigelow.
However the space station could be a test bed for a range of technologies the UK ATC would want to use for international government funded space science.
Scotland's satellite data communications specialist STAR-Dundee has also declined to comment about any relationship with Bigelow.
STAR-Dundee's managing director Steve Parkes did not deny that his company had met with Bigelow but said "I have nothing to say and we do not give out the names of our customers".
He added that his company did not meet with Bigelow at the Edinburgh meeting.
In October, Bigelow announced that it had signed MOUs with organisations in six nations.
Four of those six are still unknown but the other two are the UK ATC and the state-owned Swedish Space Corporation. The Swedish company has not revealed what its MOU is about.


A recently restored medieval stained glass window at Wells Cathedral is to be shown off during an event to celebrate the project's completion.

The Jesse Window conservation was completed in November following a three-year, Â£500,000 project.
Free guided tours are being offered for the first time on Saturday and Sunday as part of a weekend of celebrations.
The window is described as one the most remarkable examples of 14th Century stained glass in Europe
It depicts the genealogy of Jesus dating back to Abraham.
Lindsay Mann, from the cathedral, said: "It's the first time visitors are being invited to come in and have tours given by our specialist guides.
"It will focus on the story of the window and also its conservation. The window can now be seen as our mediaeval counterparts intended it to be seen.
"It escaped the reformation, in part due to the sheer scale of it and and its height in the cathedral."
Ms Mann said the free tours needed to be pre-booked via the cathedral's website.
A one-day conference looking at the significance of the window and the process of its conservation will also take place on Saturday.
