The Brazilian state of Rio de Janeiro has declared a financial emergency less than 50 days before the Olympics.

Interim Governor Francisco Dornelles says the "serious economic crisis" threatens to stop the state from honouring commitments for the Games.
Most public funding for the Olympics has come from Rio's city government, but the state is responsible for areas such as transport and policing.
Interim President Michel Temer has promised significant financial help.
The governor has blamed the crisis on a tax shortfall, especially from the oil industry, while Brazil overall has faced a deep recession.
The measure could accelerate the release of federal emergency funds.
Rio state employees and pensioners are owed wages in arrears. Hospitals and police stations have been severely affected.
What has gone wrong in Brazil?
In a decree, Mr Dornelles said the state faced "public calamity" that could lead to a "total collapse" in public services, such as security, health and education.
He authorised "exceptional measures" to be taken ahead of the Games that could impact "all essential public services", but no details were given.
The state has projected a budget deficit of $5.5bn (£3.9bn) for this year.
Rio's mayor Eduardo Paes said on Twitter the state's decision "in no way delays the delivery of Olympic projects and the promises assumed by the city of Rio".
There are also concerns over an outbreak of the Zika virus, which has been linked to birth defects, and the impact it could have on the city's tourism.
Rio expects about 500,000 foreign visitors during the Olympics.


Children who are bullied can still experience negative effects on their physical and mental health more than 40 years later, say researchers from King's College London.

Their study tracked 7,771 children born in 1958 from the age of seven until 50.
Those bullied frequently as children were at an increased risk of depression and anxiety, and more likely to report a lower quality of life at 50.
Anti-bullying groups said people needed long-term support after being bullied.
A previous study, from Warwick University, tracked more than 1,400 people between the ages of nine and 26 and found that bullying had long-term negative consequences for health, job prospects and relationships.
This study, published in the American Journal of Psychiatry, suggests that the impact of bullying could be longer-lasting - into middle age.
Although the risk of poor health, and social and economic consequences 40 years after exposure to bullying was small - about 1.5 times the norm - the study said it was similar to that faced by children in care.
To collect their data, researchers asked parents if their child had been exposed to bullying, at ages seven and 11. More than a quarter said they had been bullied occasionally and 15% bullied frequently.
Over the years, researchers then carried out tests to see if the known effects of bullying persisted into adulthood.
Individuals were tested for psychological distress and general health at the ages of 23 and 50, for psychiatric problems at 45 and cognitive functioning, social relationships and well-being at 50.
The study found that those who were bullied in childhood were more likely to have poorer physical and mental health and cognitive functioning at 50.
Those who were bullied frequently were more likely to be depressed and have suicidal thoughts.
There were also social and economic consequences to childhood bullying.
Those bullied as children were more likely to be less educated, with men who were bullied more likely to be unemployed and earn less.
Social relationships were also affected with bullied individuals less likely to be in a relationship and to have good support from friends and family at 50.
Prof Louise Arseneault, senior study author, from the Institute of Psychiatry at King's College London, said: "We need to move away from any perception that bullying is just an inevitable part of growing up. Teachers, parents and policy-makers should be aware that what happens in the school playground can have long-term repercussions for children.
"Programmes to stop bullying are extremely important, but we also need to focus our efforts on early intervention to prevent potential problems persisting into adolescence and adulthood."
The study said the harmful effect of bullying remained even when other factors including childhood IQ, emotional and behavioural problems and parents' socioeconomic status were taken into account.
Prof Arseneault added: "Forty years is a long time, so there will no doubt be additional experiences during the course of these young people's lives which may either protect them against the effects of bullying, or make things worse. Our next step is to investigate what these are."
Lucie Russell, director of campaigns and media at Young Minds, said the research highlighted that the effects of bullying are not just temporary.
"Bullying is traumatic and painful for every young person who experiences it and its long-term impact can lead to psychological damage for many years to come as this important study has shown.
"Responding to bullying must therefore take on board this impact with long-term, follow-up support to minimise the pain and suffering many victims experience throughout their lives."
Martha Evans, acting national co-ordinator for the Anti-Bullying Alliance said: "Parents/carers, teachers and children and young people all have a part to play in working together to create a society where bullying is not tolerated and where we all respond to bullying quickly and appropriately."
Emma-Jane Cross, CEO and founder of BeatBullying, said young people now faced even greater threats from cyberbullying and trolling, and called for more action.
"We can only assume that the consequences of bullying could be even more damaging for future generations.
"We need an urgent review of how bullying and cyberbullying is tackled in this country led by an anti-bullying tsar - covering the role of industry, schools and government, and ensuring that children who are bullied receive the counselling support they desperately need."


One man has died and three people have been injured in a crash in South Lanarkshire.

Two cars were involved in the collision on the B7078 Carlisle Road near Blackwood at about 18:15 on Friday.
Police said the 19-year-old passenger in one of the cars, a Seat Ibiza, had died at the scene.
The 25-year-old man driving the Seat was taken to Wishaw General Hospital. His condition has been described as "serious".
The other car involved, a Nissan Micra, was being driven by a 55-year-old man who is in a stable condition in hospital.
A five-year-old girl in the car was taken to the Royal Hospital for Children in Glasgow and is in a serious condition.
Police have appealed to witnesses to get in touch.


A witness has described how passengers tackled a man who allegedly made a false bomb threat on a Malaysia Airlines plane.

Flight MH128, bound for Kuala Lumpur, was forced to return to Melbourne after the man tried to enter the cockpit.
The flight landed safely and the passenger was arrested, police said, adding it was not terror-related.
One passenger said the suspect was carrying a "very unusual object", which police later said was not explosive.
"He ran down the back aisle and three great Aussie heroes wrestled him to the ground and totally immobilised him," the witness, Andrew Leoncelli, told the BBC.
The suspect was a 25-year-old Sri Lankan man who was released from a Melbourne psychiatric facility earlier on Wednesday, said Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton.
Police initially treated it as a possible terrorism incident before determining it was "a case involving a mental health issue", the commissioner said.
Police said the man was carrying a bluetooth speaker or something similar. Malaysia's Deputy Transport Minister Abdul Aziz bin Kaprawi described it as a "powerbank", the AFP agency said.
Mr Leoncelli, a former professional Australian Rules football player, said it had two antennae and what appeared to be a smartphone input.
He said the suspect told airline staff he needed to see the captain before becoming "really agitated" and making threats, including making button-pressing motions.
"I went back to tell the other passengers there was a real threat here, we need to do something," Mr Leoncelli said.
Of the passengers who then overpowered the man, he said: "I cannot tell you their names but they are good fellas."
Earlier, Mr Leoncelli told Melbourne's 3AW radio station that the man threatened to "blow the plane up", prompting staff to scream for help.
Malaysia Airlines said the Airbus A330, carrying 337 passengers and crew, was in the air for just 30 minutes of its eight-hour flight time before landing.
Heavily armed police boarded the plane just before midnight local time (14:00 GMT) and placed the man under arrest.
Mr Ashton defended what local media said was a 90-minute delay between the plane landing and police intervention.
He said counter-terrorism officers had feared there may be other explosive devices or potential suspects on board.
"If we had an incident where there were further explosives that were triggered, we could have had a mass casualty incident," he said.
"Decisions had to be made about what was the safest way to get passengers off the plane."
Mr Ashton said man had been living in Melbourne on a current visa, clarifying earlier information he was an Australian citizen.
A number of flights were diverted following the incident, but the airport confirmed it was operating as normal.

They are services that are often vital to the public whether it is travelling to work, school, for leisure activities or shopping.

But bus companies also need to make a profit and in recent years that has proved a problem for some.
In the last few months, three have gone out of business.
But why?
Buses are expensive to buy and to run and the Welsh companies tend to have profits of about 7%, which is below the returns suggested by the Competition Commission.
A new coach can cost £250,000, while each bus on the road costs £135,000 a year to run.
Staff costs, which are on average 60% of the cost of most of the firms, have been rising as has insurance.
Fuel costs have been on the increase over many years although they fell recently.
They are rising again now and expected to go higher as petrol is traded in dollars so the low value of the pound will make it more expensive.
TIMELINE - THE LAST BUS
August: Lewis Coaches of Ceredigion, employing 40 people, went into administration. The company had 30 coaches. Aberystwyth-Carmarthen-Cardiff bus service ended.
July: GHA, based in Ruabon near Wrexham, went into administration. It employed 320 people and operated 230 vehicles on school and bus routes across north Wales, Cheshire and Shropshire.
June: Silcox Coaches in Pembroke Dock ceased trading after 134 years, with 40 job losses.
Other companies have fallen by the wayside in recent years. In 2013, Gwyn Williams of Tumble, based at the Derlwyn Garage, went bust while two years before that, Swansea-based holiday coach firm Diamond ceased trading.
£80m value a year to Welsh economy in wages and taxes
4,000 staff employed
105m people use buses each year
4.5% of all journeys made in Wales
Professor Stuart Cole, a transport expert from the University of South Wales, has identified cash flow as a major problem for many bus firms.
They may have contracts that can keep the business afloat but they cannot access the cash in time.
He also identifies issues like companies expanding too fast and not tackling problems early enough as reasons some have been struggling.
"Persuading people to admit that there's a problem, especially a family business that's been going for decades, can be difficult," said Prof Cole.
He added that the Welsh Government could help, through encouraging Finance Wales loans for example, if it was aware of problems early enough.
Competition has also become tighter as council funding has been cut since they are major customers of bus companies including through school travel provisions.
Prof Cole says some bigger bus companies had pulled back from traditional areas, but smaller, local firms did not have that option to move away from less profitable routes.
"There could also be a reluctance to reduce staff and let go of many loyal employees," he added.
According to John Pockett, the Welsh director of the Confederation of Passenger Transport, ministers need to take some responsibility.
"Welsh Government funding has been cut. There's a lack of certainty. Things always happen at the last minute. You can't plan ahead."
The Welsh Government said despite very challenging funding settlements, its funding to councils to subsidise bus and community transport had been maintained at £25m since 2013-14.
"A number of local authorities have cut their own budgets for service subsidy during the same period," said a spokesman.
"In addition to the Bus Service Support Grant, we also fund a growing network of popular longer distance TrawsCymru bus services across Wales which provide essential public transport links for rural communities."
TrawsCymru carried a record two million passengers in 2015-16 and a new service providing hourly travel between Swansea, Neath, Yestradgynlais and Brecon, was starting soon.
The T1 service linking Carmarthen, Lampeter and Aberystwyth had also seen "particularly strong growth" alongside the rural Bwcabus.


Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has declared victory in Sunday's parliamentary election, winning a second consecutive term.

His centre-right Fidesz has polled 45%, with most of the votes counted.
A centre-left opposition alliance is trailing with 25%, while the far-right Jobbik party is credited with 21%.
The Hungarian left has never fully recovered from its heavy defeat in the 2010 ballot, in which Mr Orban swept to power with a two-thirds majority.
Sunday's election has been mainly fought over the state of the economy, correspondents say.
"No doubt we have won," Mr Orban told supporters gathered in the capital, Budapest, late on Sunday evening.
"This was not just any odd victory. We have scored such a comprehensive victory, the significance of which we cannot yet fully grasp tonight."
He said the election results showed that Hungarians wanted to stay in the European Union, but with a strong national government.
"I'm going to work every day so that Hungary will be a wonderful place," he declared.
Fidesz is predicted to win around 135 of the 199 seats in parliament.
It now also seems likely that Jobbik will become the second-largest party in parliament, the BBC's Nick Thorpe reports from Budapest.
Although the Socialist-led opposition is in second place, the five parties making up the alliance plan to form their own factions after the elections, our correspondent says.
Observers say Jobbik's adoption of a softer image has paid dividends, as a recent opinion poll found leader Gabor Vona to be the most popular opposition politician.
Fidesz supporters say Mr Orban's victory is a tribute to his leadership powers. But opposition parties have accused the prime minister throughout their campaign of undermining Hungarian democracy.
They have also accused Mr Orban of curtailing civil liberties and harming free speech.
Fidesz has insisted that reform was needed to complete the work of eradicating the legacy of Communism from the country, and reduce the budget deficit to below the EU's required 3% of gross domestic product.
Mr Orban's populist and Eurosceptic approach has proven popular with many Hungarians.
"The left had eight years to show what they can do, and they showed us all right," he told Hungarian media on Saturday.
"Why on Earth should we believe that the same people and the same parties would not do the same if given another opportunity?"


Prime Minister David Cameron will later attempt to halt the civil war in his party caused by Iain Duncan Smith's resignation from the cabinet.

Mr Duncan Smith has warned the government risks dividing society with politically-motivated spending cuts.
Mr Cameron is to reject this - and No 10 has rubbished claims of a rift with George Osborne, saying the chancellor still has the PM's full confidence.
The disability cuts Mr Duncan Smith quit over will be shelved.
Downing Street said the changes to Personal Independence Payments (PIP) announced ahead of Mr Osborne's Budget last week would not go ahead "in their current form".
But alternative proposals for saving the Â£4bn earmarked for the savings would not come until the Autumn Statement towards the end of the year.
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn has called for Mr Osborne's resignation and Conservative MPs have spoken out against the leadership with Mr Duncan Smith's former ministerial team divided in their responses to his resignation.
Treasury minister David Gauke is answering an urgent Commons question from Labour's shadow chancellor John McDonnell on changes to the Budget - Mr McDonnell had called for the chancellor himself but this appears to have been ignored.
This will be followed by a statement from Mr Cameron - ostensibly on last week's EU summit - at which he is expected to restate his commitment to "compassionate Conservatism" and reject Mr Duncan Smith's criticisms of his style of government.
Former Tory leader Lord Howard urged MPs to "listen to what the prime minister has to say" and to "calm down".
Mr Duncan Smith set out the reasons for his surprise resignation in an interview with the BBC's Andrew Marr, in which he said the way Mr Osborne had cut benefits in his Budget at the same time as cutting taxes for the better off was "deeply unfair" and that he had become "semi detached" from government.
Ross Hawkins, BBC political correspondent
George Osborne: chief tactician and patron, a man whose word makes or wrecks careers.
That was the view of many Tory MPs for a very long time. Now, many doubt he will ever be their leader, or even the chancellor much longer.
It's not that they think David Cameron is poised to sack him or that he's about to resign, as Labour demand.
They simply believe a swift leadership election is highly likely whatever the result of 23 June's EU referendum.
If it does come that soon, there will be - one predicts - a "genocide of the Cameroons and Osbornites".
A stubbornly enduring deficit, a tax credit U-turn, and the sheer numbers of MPs who have chosen to back a leave vote at the referendum have seen Osborne's authority leak.
A weekend of melodrama has - in one Tory MP's view - burst the dam.

Lord Howard played down Mr Duncan Smith's criticisms of government policy - but Conservative MP Sarah Wollaston said they were "very serious".
"Today, when David Cameron stands up, he has to reaffirm the message that led many people like myself to join the Conservative Party in the first place when he became leader," she said.
"Are we about social justice? Are we about spreading the burden fairly? We need to hear that very clear message today."
She suggested pensioner benefits - which the Conservatives pledged to protect in their manifesto - should be cut to make up the shortfall.
A number of senior Conservative figures have questioned Mr Osborne's credentials to replace David Cameron as prime minister when he steps down.
Former chief whip Andrew Mitchell described Mr Osborne's abortive attempt to reform PIP as a "cock-up".
He said Mr Osborne was "not the only candidate" for the party leadership and there were a "large number" of alternatives.
Influential backbencher David Davis told the BBC's Victoria Derbyshire the Â£4bn welfare savings should be cancelled and suggested Mr Osborne should be moved to another department if he wants to be a successful replacement for David Cameron as prime minister.
London Mayor Boris Johnson, seen as Mr Osborne's main rival for the top job, is returning from a skiing holiday and has yet to comment.
BBC assistant political editor Norman Smith said it was understood Mr Cameron had urged Mr Osborne to avoid any major controversy in the Budget so as to avoid fuelling discontent among Tory MPs ahead of the EU referendum.
Despite this, our correspondent said, Downing Street insists "the two men remain as close as ever", and have dismissed reports that the prime minister will seek to distance himself from Mr Osborne.
Number 10 has stressed that PIP will still have to be reformed in the future as the cost is "unsustainable."
Mr Corbyn told the BBC Mr Osborne should be "considering his position".
"His Budget simply doesn't add up and it unravelled within hours of him presenting it. This isn't the first time a George Osborne Budget has unravelled," the Labour leader told BBC1's Breakfast programme.
"It seems to me we need to look at the very heart of this government, at its incompetence, at the way it puts forward proposals that simply don't add up and expects the most needy in our society to take the hit for them."
Who would the disability changes impact?


Two British reporters and a translator have been formally charged by a Turkish court with "working on behalf of a terrorist organisation".

Vice News journalists Jake Hanrahan and Philip Pendlebury were detained by police as they filmed in the south-east region of Diyarbakir on Thursday.
Their lawyer told the BBC police interrogated them about alleged links to Islamic State and Kurdish militants.
They deny the charges, which Vice News calls "baseless and alarmingly false".
The trio had been in the region filming clashes between police and Kurdish militants, Vice News said.
Violent exchanges between security forces and youths from the outlawed Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) have erupted in recent days. Turkey has limited journalists' access to the region.
By Selin Girit, BBC News, Istanbul
The two British journalists and their translator were detained on Thursday at their hotel, their lawyer told the BBC.
He said they were initially accused of filming a military base nearby without permission. Then the material on their computers and cameras was investigated.
The lawyer said the journalists were subject to questions of whether they were working on behalf of the IS or the Kurdish militant group PKK. They denied the accusations, saying they were only doing their job.
The Vice News journalists were working in the predominantly Kurdish south-eastern town of DiyarbakÄ±r when they were detained, which has seen intense clashes between militants and security forces recently - it's increasingly difficult for journalists to report from the area.
Turkey was dubbed as "the biggest prison for journalists" in 2012 and 2013 by journalism organisations. In general though, detained foreign journalists would either be released or deported.
The journalists' lawyer told the BBC they had a right to object to the court ruling within a week, but that they do not expect an overturn of the decision.
The journalists' lawyer said the trio were detained at their hotel and initially accused of filming a military base without permission.
Their camera and computers were seized and investigated, he said.
They were then asked questions about whether they had been collaborating with the PKK or the so-called Islamic State group, before being formally arrested by a local court. They have denied all charges.
Kevin Sutcliffe, Vice News's head of news programming in Europe, said the Turkish government had levelled "baseless and alarmingly false charges" in an attempt to intimidate and censor its coverage.
"Vice News condemns in the strongest possible terms the Turkish government's attempts to silence our reporters who have been providing vital coverage from the region," he said.
No further court dates have yet been set.


The nominees for posts in the next European Commission are facing confirmation hearings in the European Parliament - and some tough questioning is expected.

The shake-up of portfolios by EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker has upset many MEPs, the BBC's Chris Morris reports from Brussels.
The UK's Lord Hill has been assigned to financial services and capital markets. His hearing is on Wednesday.
MEPs can block Commission appointments.
Each would-be commissioner faces a public grilling lasting several hours.
Many of the questions will be about technical details of policy, less than three weeks after the nominees found out which job each of them had been given.
The hearings will be televised live on the European Parliament website.
Among those under particular pressure from MEPs are the Spanish and Hungarian nominees, as well as Lord Hill, our correspondent says.
A former lobbyist, he is likely to come under close scrutiny because of the Conservatives' Euroscepticism and concern about the power of bankers in the City of London.
The hearings will begin with Sweden's Cecilia Malmstroem (Trade), followed by Karmenu Vella of Malta (Environment, Maritime Affairs and Fisheries).
The parliament is scheduled to vote on whether to approve the new Commission as a whole on 22 October.
There is particular concern among Green and Liberal MEPs that the climate action and energy jobs will be merged in one post, in the hands of a Spanish conservative, Miguel Arias Canete.
Some MEPs are also worried about having Hungary's Tibor Navracsics in charge of education, culture, youth and citizenship.
A former Hungarian justice minister, he is close to Prime Minister Viktor Orban, who clashed with EU officials over alleged curbs on civil liberties.
The European Commission took legal action against Mr Orban's government over several new laws, including data protection policy and the judiciary.

Wales have been practising penalties since arriving at Euro 2016, manager Chris Coleman says.

The Welsh have never been involved in a penalty shoot out, which could happen in Saturday's last 16 match in Paris.
Coleman admits it is impossible to replicate the anxiety of sudden death penalty shoot out.
''If it comes our way we will have to try and deal with it,'' said Coleman, who has a fully-fit squad after beating Russia 3-0 to top Group B.
Individual players have penalty experience, including top-scorer Gareth Bale who scored from the spot in Real Madrid's shoot-out win over Atletico Madrid in the Champions League final in May.
The current squad have been sharpening their spot kick skills in training, but Coleman recognises its limitations.
''I would say on three days out of five, the players naturally just gravitate after training to take penalties," he said.
''If it comes to that (on Saturday), again it is new territory for us.
''How do you recreate 50,000 people breathing down your neck;  or the eyes of the world upon you as you are stepping up to take the penalty and you need to put it in the back of the net. You cannot recreate that.''
Coleman reported no injury worries after clinching Group B top spot with Monday night's commanding win over Russia in Toulouse.
Eight Wales players started all three games in the opening stages of the competition and Coleman says he will not hesitate to alter the line up on Saturday, if required.
"'I would make changes if I think physically, they cannot do it," he added.
"But I would be surprised if any of them admit to me that they are a bit tired and may be they don't want to start.
"The guys who have not been on the grass or have not been starting are chomping at the bit. They are not very happy they have not been on the grass. That is a positive.
"But I can only pick 11 . . . I look at the opposition and I think if we can create a few problems with a different player in there, or in a different place I will do it.
"That does not mean the player who is being replaced in the last game has not done very well. It's just horses for courses."


A patient at a mental health unit in Scunthorpe was killed in his room in between staff visits which took place every 15 minutes, a court has heard.

Robert McNeill, 60, died at Great Oaks Hospital on 16 January.
Hull Crown Court heard he died of a brain injury after being choked, struck on the head and poked in the back with a pen.
Fellow patient Jamie Reed, 26, has admitted manslaughter by diminished responsibility but denies murder.
The jury was told Mr McNeill had a history of alcohol problems and was admitted to the unit two weeks before his death and in such a confused state that he needed to be checked by staff every 15 minutes.
In the hours leading up to the killing, staff made regular checks on the victim after he went to bed.
But when an employee went to check on the patient at 02:00 BST they saw Mr Reed leaving his room, the court heard.
Asked by the worker what he was doing, he replied: "I was visiting", the jury was told.
Staff found Mr McNeill under the mattress on the floor with a pillow over his head.
They were then called by police saying Mr Reed had phoned to report he had murdered someone by asphyxiation, the court heard.
When staff went to Mr Reed's room, he told them Mr McNeill had been troubling him, intimidating him and stealing from him, the jury heard.
The prosecution said the 26-year-old patient was admitted to the hospital on 6 January after he threatened to harm himself with a knife.
Prosecutor Paul Mitchell said there was no evidence Mr Reed was "actively psychotic" at the time of the attack, but he had an adjustment disorder associated with using cannabis.
The trial continues.


A man aged 31 has died after an incident on the River Dee near Wrexham.

North Wales Police said they were alerted by ambulance crews at 14:15 BST and called to an area at Newbridge.
Officers said the man, who was local to the area, was "taken ill in the river", and later pronounced dead at the scene.
Investigations are continuing into the cause of death, but there are not believed to be any suspicious circumstances.
North Wales Police said the man's family have been informed, as well as the coroner.


Swansea City captain Ashley Williams expects West Bromwich Albion to be harder to beat because Tony Pulis is now manager there.

Pulis, 57, led Crystal Palace to safety last season and he replaced Alan Irvine at the Hawthorns on 1 January.
The Baggies, have lost one of the seven games since the Welshman took charge.
"Tony Pulis is there now and we all know what sort of manager he is, so we know it's going to be a tough game," Williams said.
"What you know with his sides is that they're going to be organised and very difficult to beat.
"I'm sure he's trying to implement that there, and it's about us trying to break them down.
"But they're at home so they should come out a little bit and hopefully it's a good game."
Swansea eased to a 3-0 win over West Brom at the Liberty Stadium in August during Irvine's seven month spell in charge at the Hawthorns.
Victory over the Baggies saw Swansea briefly move to the top of the Premier League, although they are currently ninth in the table.
The Swans recovered from going a goal down at home to Sunderland on Saturday to rescue a draw, thanks to Ki Sung-yueng.
That resulted followed a 1-0 win at high-flying Southampton the previous weekend.
"I thought we showed great character to come back from being a goal down, especially when you're not playing as well as you want to," Williams said.
"Second half we played a lot better and finally Ki got the goal, so credit to the team for that."
Holding midfielder Jack Cork signed from Saints in the January transfer window and Williams praised his debut against Sunderland.
"I thought he did really well, another one who put a shift in, covered a lot of ground and was fully committed to the team," Williams said.
"He seems a really nice guy and started brilliantly.
"It's nice to hear that people want to come to the team, maybe we've struggled with that before with it being a smaller club, being in Wales and a lot of people want to live in bigger cities.
"But it just shows the work that we've all done here... that we can attract players to the club and Jack is a good British player. I think he'll have a good career here."


GPs in Northern Ireland have been saying for some time that the profession is entering a "perfect storm" over problems with recruitment, funding and workloads.

In December, hundreds of individual GPs signed undated resignation letters, meaning they could leave the health service.
The GPs are members of the British Medical Association (BMA), the professional association and trade union for doctors.
They met in Belfast on Wednesday to agree the next step in the process.
They have now voted to collect undated resignations from practices, something which NI GP Committee chair Tom Black says was done with "deep regret".
"General practice is on the brink in Northern Ireland and we feel we have no alternative to proceed with collecting undated resignations from our members," he said.
This is not the first time GPs in the BMA have threatened mass resignation as a look back at the health service shows.
The term general practitioner first appears in records in the early 19th century. The role evolved separately from physicians and surgeons, who specialised and held hospital appointments from which GPs were largely excluded.
Before the setting up of the NHS in Great Britain, people not covered by the National Insurance Act 1911 either had to join a medical aid society or pay to see a family doctor.
A famous report by William Beveridge in 1942 provided a blueprint for the welfare state that changed everything.
The BMA, while initially supportive of some aspects of a national health service, became strongly opposed by 1946.
They negotiated directly with British Health Secretary Nye Bevan to ensure general practitioners did not simply become salaried employees.
In Northern Ireland, health reform was done via Stormont and, according to historian Dr John Privilege from the Centre for the History of Medicine in Ireland, GPs in NI got a good deal.
"Doctors were given a seat at the negotiating table not only from the get go, they were also consulted on framing legislation and on the form their payment and compensation would take," he said.
"For example, they received compensation to the tune of Â£2m for the loss of potential revenue and the fact they could no longer buy and sell their own practices."
People in Northern Ireland were enthusiastic about the new service and figures show that 93% of the population enrolled with a GP.
But less than 10 years after it was set up, GPs across the UK were threatening to leave.
John Simpson, a former chair of the Eastern Health Board in Northern Ireland, said: "I think that the threat of resignation in 1957 was a continuation of the fact that they still hadn't settled the institutions that became the national health service.
"That has been there ever since, it set the tone and we lived with a situation where we have not really got a settled relationship between general practice in the health service and what we as citizens expect."
The immediate threat from GPs was lifted when the Westminster government set up a Royal Commission on pay.
But it wasn't the last use of the mass resignation technique, which resurfaced in the 1960s.
GPs felt they had too many patients, too much form-filling and that they weren't properly supported.
The BMA came up with a charter and collected letters of resignation from nearly 80 percent of GPs.
A solution was thrashed out and formed the basis of a new contract.
The 1970s and 1980s were more settled decades. With the Blair government in place in the late 90s, the BMA again took ballots on mass resignation in 2001 and considered doing so in 2008.
Now Northern Ireland GPs say they're on the brink of resigning from the health service, citing pressures of overwork and under-resourcing.
For Dr Privilege, this is unexpected.
"The lines of communication between medical professionals and politicians in Northern Ireland, even under direct rule, were always good," he said.
"Somewhere that link has been lost and you no longer have this communication between government and medical professionals."
For Mr Simpson, the current situation could be the beginning of a bigger conversation about the role of GPs.
"Around 95% of contact with the medical profession is with the general practitioner and the availability of GPs to do that is becoming limited.
"We've seen under Transforming Your care and the Bengoa proposals that primary care should be shaken up and do much more to prevent us loading people into hospitals."
Dr Black said he and his members have been left with no choice.
"The work of the Northern Ireland government may have stalled, but the need to provide safe and efficient healthcare to patients has not stalled," he said.
"General practice is being delivered under unsustainable conditions that we can no longer tolerate."


Optician group Specsavers has had its plan to trademark the use of "should've" and "shouldve" approved by the UK Intellectual Property Office (IPO).

The company uses the phrase "should've gone to Specsavers" in its adverts.
The trademark application means that other companies will not be able to use that form of words in their marketing.
Rivals have until 12 October to make objections to the claim, the IPO said.
It said that applications for trademarks on common words could be made where they were linked to a company through "use or association".
"It is surprising that the office has accepted this trade mark for a single word, which is a verb in common usage," said trademark lawyer Tania Clark from Withers and Rogers.
"It means that the retailer could soon have the right to exclude others from using the word 'should've' or 'shouldve' when communicating about certain classes of goods, including optician services, medical hearing aids and eyewear."
It is relatively uncommon for companies to trademark a word in common usage, but Carlsberg secured a trademark for the word "probably" in 1993 in the UK, Ms Clark said.


Steve Bate and Adam Duggleby's gold medal in the time-trial was the highlight of Great Britain's three-medal haul at the Para-cycling World Cup in Maniago, Italy.

The double Paralympic champions put in a dominant performance on Friday to win their first race since Rio.
Crystal Lane then won silver in the time-trial, while Saturday saw Craig McCann win silver in the road race.
GB struggled on Sunday and failed to add any further medals.
The team will now head to the second round of the Para-cycling Road World Cup season in Ostend, Belgium next weekend as they continue to build towards the Para-cycling Road World Championships in South Africa in September.
The squad for Belgium will be announced on Tuesday.


Campaigners are making a last-ditch bid to reopen a Denbighshire cinema and arts centre.

The Scala in Prestatyn, which opened in 2009 after a Â£3.5m refurbishment, closed last week with the loss of five jobs.
Now, officials from the Scala Trust are holding a drop-in session on 16 January at the town's Beaches Hotel.
They are looking for members of the public to attend and help generate suggestions for fundraising.


Newport Gwent Dragons chief executive Stuart Davies admits a new pitch needs to be laid to cure drainage problems at Rodney Parade.

The Welsh region's Anglo-Welsh Cup match with Newcastle on 29 January was abandoned with 12 minutes remaining.
That followed the postponement or abandonment of three Newport County football matches this season.
"We are looking forward to a summer break where we can deal with some of the drainage issues," said Davies.
"Beyond that, we are speaking to all the stakeholders to see if there is a more permanent and better solution."
Davies is also the chief executive of Rodney Parade Limited, which owns the ground used by the Dragons and Newport rugby teams, and Newport County football club.
He said they would like to install a hybrid pitch at Rodney Parade - similar to the one at the Liberty Stadium which is used by Swansea City and Ospreys.
"The drainage works would be helpful but are not a solution in themselves," he added.
"We are looking at a Desso-type pitch, but it comes at a cost and we simply can't afford to put it in ourselves.
"So it's going to take a joint-effort between all those people with an interest in how the pitch presents.
"None of us want to witness the conditions we were playing in [on Sunday] or deal with the recurring issues we are facing at the moment.
"It's a very difficult situation and everyone recognises that ultimately it will take significant investment to resolve it."
Newport County manager Graham Westley had previously claimed the club are not getting value for money in their deal to use the ground - a suggestion denied by Davies.
The Exiles agreed a 10-year lease for the football club to use the stadium in 2013.
Davies also did not rule out taking some Dragons matches to Cross Keys' Pandy Park ground in future to lighten the load on Rodney Parade.
"It's something we could look at, going forward, as a more permanent arrangement, perhaps in some of the competitions we find ourselves in," added Davies.
"That in itself may take some of the pressure off the Rodney Parade pitch. It's a seed of an idea and we would like to talk to all our Premiership sides about that possibility."


Pokemon Go has released its first major update, but faces a battle to reinvigorate the gaming phenomenon.

The augmented-reality game's popularity has waned since its launch in July when it smashed download records and sparked a global craze.
But it soon fell from the top of app charts as downloads plunged and many players stopped buying in-game coins.
Analysts, though, point out it has an enormous player base and is still one of the highest grossing mobile games.
The main updates released on Monday by US firm Niantic, which developed the game under licence from Nintendo, include:
Niantic said more Pokemon would be added over the next few months. It had already added the blob-like Ditto last month.
However, there was no mention of the ability to trade characters, which Niantic's chief executive had previously hinted at. Nor was there the introduction of multi-player battles, which many gamers desire.
The update will compete for attention with Nintendo's own Super Mario game, which will be released on iPhone on Thursday.
Pokemon Go generated about $600m (Â£470m) in global revenue in its first three months and is still bringing in $120,000 a day in the UK, according to analysts at App Annie.
However, downloads have dropped sharply, falling from 79 million in July to less than 10 million in November, mobile trackers Apptopia told the BBC.
Estimates from Slice Intelligence suggest the number of paying players has also plunged from its peak, down 80% by September, although others dispute those figures.
At its launch, Pokemon Go tapped into demand for the hugely popular franchise and brought augmented reality gaming into the mainstream.
"It is always a challenge to bring users back to a mobile game," said Jack Kent, a mobile analyst at IHS Markit.
But "done correctly" Niantic could satisfy many existing players and encourage lapsed users to return.
"Despite its initial success, some players have found the core game play lacking," he added.
Special promotions around Halloween and tie-ups with retail giants including Starbucks in the US have already been used by Niantic to keep players engaged.
"Pokemon Go had the biggest launch the mobile games industry has ever seen," said Craig Chapple, editor of mobile games trade publication PocketGamer.Biz.
"Millions of players have stopped playing, but millions are still playing it and paying for items in the game."
The summer of Pokemon Go already feels a distant memory. When the craze began earlier this year I spent some time around popular spots in San Francisco including Ocean Beach. As far as the eye could see: kids out on their phones playing Pokemon Go. And a few adults.
When I asked them if it was just a passing fad, they all said: "Of course". The game play was limited, and the fact you couldn't battle against your friends hurt any potential for longevity.
These updates won't change that. It will get the hardcore enthusiasts excited - Pikachu in a hat! - but will it be enough to tempt those who uninstalled the app to try again? I doubt it.
Pokemon Go's update will have attention only for a day, maybe two at best. Then it's time for the real star of the show: Super Mario is coming to iOS later this week.

The new section of the M8 is to open to traffic almost a week ahead of schedule.

The so-called missing link of Scotland's busiest motorway between Newhouse and Baillieston will open westbound on 23 April.
Economy and Infrastructure Secretary Keith Brown said the eastbound section was expected to open a week later.
It is the latest stage in the Â£500m M8 M73 and M74 motorway improvements project.
Transport Scotland said the work would cut journey times at peak times by around 20 minutes.
Major diversions on the M8/A8 started in February while the finishing touches were put to the new carriageway.
Mr Brown told BBC Scotland: "It will mean that for the first time main street Scotland, the road between Edinburgh and Glasgow, is motorway the whole way though and indeed 60 miles of motorway, from Edinburgh right through to Greenock.
"This is tremendous news on this substantial project."
He said he believes all the delays and congestion will have been worth it.
The minister said: "If you look at this road now there are three lanes with a hard shoulder, so the capacity has dramatically increased. We should see major improvements in terms of journey times."
Mr Brown said he has been aware of the progress as he regularly drives in the area.
He said: "My partner lives in Baillieston which has been at the centre of much of the work, so I've been aware of the changing nature of the work and diversions, and I'm from Edinburgh originally so this is a road that we use.
"It's credit to the contractors. Everybody who lives locally or uses the roads knows the level of activity there's been.
"You can see the quality of the roads built here under very difficult conditions.
"The hardest improvements are those that take place when you have to keep traffic running at the same time. That has meant congestion, but that's now coming to an end and from next Sunday we'll see phases of all the different roads affected by this opening up and improving the road experience for people right across Scotland."
Transport Scotland on the M8/A8 said the diversion was needed to remove 13,000mÂ² of existing carriageway and 40,000mÂ³ of earth to connect the new M8 to the existing M8, which is about 5m higher.
Around 12,000 tonnes of blacktop then had to be laid to complete the seven mile "missing link".
All work in the M8 M73 M74 improvement project is due to be completed by the end of the spring.
It has included major work at the Raith interchange of the M74 and the Shawhead junction of the M8.
Transport Scotland project manager Graeme Reid said the full benefits will be realised when all junctions and project roads open.
"Commuters between Edinburgh and Glasgow should experience a vast improvement to their journeys between Newhouse and Ballieston Interchange.
"When the M8 opens, pressure on the A8 will ease, allowing the contractor to focus on completing the upgrade of the existing A8 and linking it to the new all-purpose road."


John Dayal, an Indian Christian, left journalism to focus on human rights work, investigating hate-crimes and targeted violence against tribespeople and religious minorities, particularly Christians.

His outspoken activism has put him on the hit list of Hindu nationalists on social media. Most recently, he was threatened after he tweeted that a Mumbai school principal, arrested on charges of molesting two students, had links to India's governing Bharatiya Janata Party.
Here he talks about the impact of the abuse he has received online.
I have, by now, become used to being called a "Traitor to Mother India". Undeserved, I hasten to add.
The first time was at the turn of the century by the then spokesman of the Bharatiya Janata Party, in power at the time. It was when I wrote and spoke in national and international forums about the burning down of village churches in south Gujarat's Dangs forests and the burning alive of Australian missionary Graham Staines in Orissa.
So sharp was the ruling party's indictment that several Catholic political leaders rushed to the press to disown me, with a few bishops following them. The call for a trial for treason, however, fell through.
Social media was then a dream, though email was catching up. Twitter and Facebook were aspirations by their now billionaire inventors.
If people did not like what you said, they phoned you up, abused you, and hung up. You had their phone numbers. Or they sent you an email. You had their address.
Once in a long while, someone would organise a small protest near your house. Specially if you were a politician or a "public figure".
There were not too many threats to anyone's life through the media.
If anyone wanted to kill anyone else, they did so, or hired someone to do the job.
I am a professional journalist and have logged four-and-a-half decades and more, mostly in newspapers but also in other forms, though I gave up employment in 2000 to focus on voluntary human rights work, investigating hate-crimes and targeted violence against tribespeople and religious minorities, particularly Christians.
Targeted violence against religious minorities has dominated the Indian landscape since the demolition of the Babri mosque in the northern town of Ayodhya in 1992. Violence against Christians has escalated from 1998 to reach its peak on 2008 in Kandhamal in Orissa.
Writing and speaking about the violence, and advocating justice for the victims and survivors has made human rights activists face targeted hate themselves - vocal and often physical.
Twitter has added a new dimension to this targeting. And makes it a preferred platform for calling upon like minded people to "take out" someone they do not like, or to silence another.
The anonymity makes it a haven for cowards. The power of computers and electronics makes it exceedingly and ominously powerful.
For the victim, often alone, powerless other than from the courage within of conscience, it can be overwhelming. It is certainly depressing. The trolls win every time, or so it seems.
I abhor religious nationalism, and hold it responsible for much of the divisiveness and bloodshed India has faced since independence from Britain in 1947.
As a pro-life person, I also abhor capital punishment and am vocal in the campaign calling for its abolition.
Earlier this year, India hanged a Muslim, Yakub Memon on his birthday, for his alleged role in a series of bomb blasts in Mumbai in 1992-93. I was among those objecting to the hanging, on principle.
A senior BJP leader went on social media to denounce us all and held us as guilty as the man hanged. His admirers, followers and supporters took up his cry. There was a barrage of hatred against me and Tushar Gandhi, a great grandson of Mahatma Gandhi who had spoken against the hanging on television channels.
But that was insignificant compared to what happened last week when my daughter, a journalist in another city, phoned to ask why I was "trending" on Twitter. "What had I done," she asked, "to invite such vitriolic hate and such cyber violence?"
Ordinary people almost never trend. It requires, according to technical experts, thousands of people writing a tweet on the person in a short period of a couple of hours or so. This can only be done through teamwork, resources and strong political motivation.
Your computer screen is inundated with hate, often graphically illustrated with flying bullets and other weapons of bodily harm. The words match the pictures. It can be scary.
It does not scare me, although I have lodged formal complaints with the police and cyber crime agencies. But it impacts the family, freedom of movement, and of expression.
It also terrorises friends and the leadership of the church who are afraid to come out in the open in your support. It can isolate you even though the silent lovers of freedom and peace support your stance.
Does this trolling end up in actual physical violence, in murder?
Police have so far not been able to find the killers of three people, all as old - or older - as me, who were murdered in Karnataka and Maharashtra for their writings and their campaigns, which irritated the votaries of religious nationalism. Possibly the police can tell if they were trolled or were trending.
The police say they have really no means to catch the offenders. And Twitter, zealous guardian of the freedom of expression, does not help.
Meanwhile, the threat increases for the freedom of thought, and dissent.
They are critical to a republican, plural democracy such as India, which is still evolving and trying to live by a modern constitution a mere 65 years old - two years younger than me.

Work has begun to demolish a 1970s shopping centre in the centre of Oxford as part of a £440m redevelopment.

The Westgate development in the city centre will eventually have more than 100 shops, 25 restaurants and cafes, a cinema and 61 flats.
The multi-storey car park on the site was demolished last year. It will be replaced with a 1,000-space underground car park.
The development is due for completion in autumn next year.
It will include rooftop terrace dining and new public spaces.
Site owner Westgate Oxford Alliance, a joint venture between commercial property company Land Securities and The Crown Estate, said the development would cover 800,000 sq ft (74,322 sq m) when complete.
Preparatory work began in February 2015 following planning approval by Oxford City Council.


Six care home staff accused of wilfully neglecting an elderly resident have been cleared by a judge.

Three men and three women had been on trial at Bradford Crown Court along with two other defendants.
It was claimed Edward Hinnells, 79, was kept in "abject squalor" at Highdell Nursing Home, in Idle, Bradford.
However, Judge Colin Burn told the jury to return not guilty verdicts against the six people, saying there were "very good legal reasons".
Senior care worker Jennifer Cross, 60, from Idle, carer Nicki Kassama, 30, from Shipley, senior carer Valerie James, 58, from Eccleshill, nurses Desmond Crowley, 59, from Daisy Hill, Bradford, and Gerard McDermott, 58, from Ilkley, and 49-year-old cleaner Piotr Czajkowski, from Ravenscliffe, were cleared of any wrongdoing.
Judge Burn said he was unable to elaborate on his reasoning at this stage.
The trial continues against care home manager Stephen Pelkowski, 51, from Addingham, and senior nurse Phillippa Robinson, 57, from Shipley.
Prosecutors allege Mr Hinnells was left to live in a room "not fit for human habitation" without bedding, toilet paper or wipes after he became a resident at the home in February 2013.
Mr Pelkowski and Mrs Robinson deny the charge.


A motorcyclist has died from his injuries after a collision with a taxi in Merseyside.

The rider was taken to hospital following the collision at 05:00 BST on the junction of Allport Road and Bridle Road in Wirral.
Police said the taxi driver was shaken but not injured, and is "cooperating fully".
Motorists have been advised to avoid the scene and the slip road from New Chester Road into Allport Road.


Former world number one Tiger Woods has parted company with Steve Williams, who had been his caddie since 1999.

Woods, who missed last week's Open because of a leg injury, made the announcement on his official website.
Woods said: "I want to express my deepest gratitude to Stevie, but I think it's time for a change.
"Stevie is an outstanding caddie and a friend and has been instrumental in many of my accomplishments. I wish him great success in the future."
Williams has been working with Australian Adam Scott at the last two majors, and Woods has made no announcement yet about who will replace him when the 14-time major champion returns to action after his injury.
Williams was Woods' caddy for 13 of those 14 major wins, and was at one stage thought to be New Zealand's highest earning sporting figure.
Speaking to his official website, Williams confirmed the end of his relationship with Woods and revealed he would team up with Scott on a permanent basis.
He said: "After years of loyal service needless to say this came as a shock.
"Given the circumstances of the past 18 months working through Tiger's scandal, a new coach and with it a major swing change and Tiger battling through injuries, I am very disappointed to end our very successful partnership at this time.
"I have had the opportunity to work of late for Australian Adam Scott and will now caddie for him on a permanent basis.
"Having started my caddying career with Australian great Peter Thompson and working for Greg Norman in the 80s I am excited about the future working for another Australian. "
The only caddies Woods has used in his 14-year career on the PGA Tour are Mike Cowan and Williams.
His childhood friend, Byron Bell, caddied for him when he won the Buick Invitational in 1999 and 2000, and Billy Foster caddied for Woods at the Presidents Cup in 2005 when Williams was home for the birth of his son. Foster now works for Lee Westwood.


Mine is a story of misdiagnosis, but how did I get there?

Suzy Favor Hamilton was a middle-distance runner who represented the US in three Olympic Games before becoming an escort in Las Vegas as she struggled with bipolar disorder. Listen to her story on Stephen Nolan, 12 February, 23:30 GMT on  BBC Radio 5 live.
There is a history of mental illness in my family. My brother lived with bipolar disorder and the household was often chaotic as a result.
Our family never discussed it. To the outside, we looked like the Brady Bunch. Looking back, there were signs something was not quite right with me either.
WATCH: Suzy Favor Hamilton talks to Stephen Nolan on 5 live
I did everything at a mile a minute and couldn't focus for the life of me. Growing up, I lived with an eating disorder, had suicidal thoughts and a suicide attempt in college, then experienced severe anxiety when I raced. But I kept it all in, trying to maintain the facade of the perfect Midwestern girl, strong and powerful.
If others noticed any problems, they looked the other way. I usually won, and they liked it that way.
Running seemed to be the one thing in life that quietened my brain, and because of that, I loved to run and grew to obsess about it.
I saw my winning races have a positive effect on my family, namely my parents. I strangely grew to feel that my success could make this a happy family, and take away any silent pain we were experiencing as a result of my brother's odd behaviour.
My running career was highly successful. I won more NCAA Championships than anybody ever had. I won seven US Championship titles between 1991 and 2004, set a couple of American records, and made the 1992, 1996 and 2000 Olympic teams.
I won a lot, but tended to "choke" at the big, big meets. I didn't know why and it ate at me. My body would just tighten up on me unexpectedly towards the end of a race. Like I was running with a piano on my back. I even fell on purpose in the 1500m final at the Sydney Olympics when, as the favourite, I knew I would not medal with 50 metres to go.
That was easier to swallow than failure. I wanted so badly to win that one for my family, to ease the pain of losing my brother Dan to suicide the year before.
Incredibly, I never thought of myself as having any kind of brain disorder. All I knew was that I dreaded competing. Filled with anxiety most often, I could not wait to retire, but I marched on to please others.
Finally, in 2005, I got pregnant. Having a child would be my way out. This was my excuse, and I could not wait to be a mom. I would have a baby, maybe two, and live a life of perfect happiness. But that's not what happened.
Months after having my beautiful daughter, I was in a dark place.
A new "real world" job in real estate, a suddenly strained marriage, a disintegrating relationship with my siblings, strain with my parents, a miscarriage, then another, feelings of inadequacy of being a mother. It was building up.
All I knew was that I had to hold my daughter all the time. I could not let go. I had no motivation to run. I rocked myself constantly. I was irritable like never before. And then I decided I wanted to run my car off the road, into a tree. I just wanted the pain to stop.
Thankfully, I thought of my daughter, resisted those thoughts, made it home, and told my husband.
Soon, I saw a doctor, was diagnosed with post-partum depression, put on anti-depressants, and things improved. Years passed. Triggers intensified. I was getting by, but had grown to detest the side-effects. I felt fat, sluggish, unmotivated. I stopped taking the drug that had been keeping me somewhat stable.
It didn't take long, but before I knew it, I was in that dark place again. Suicidal. Triggers everywhere. My marriage was deteriorating. My family was driving me crazy. I had a modest speaking career, but they insisted I not publicly speak about my mental illness or my brother's bipolar and suicide. I hated my real estate job. I just wanted to escape.
My doctor put me on another anti-depressant. The effects were immediate. I felt great. I felt beyond great. I felt alive. I wanted to live. Time for my fantasies to now become a reality.
Our 20th wedding anniversary was coming up. A nice dinner date out on the town with flowers perhaps? Not for me. I wanted to go to Vegas, jump out of a plane, hire an escort, have a threesome. Bucket list stuff I never thought I would actually do. Never. I wanted it now.
Skydiving was amazing, something I would never dare do, but I was doing it. Then the threesome. Now this was life changing. I was a new woman.
How had I been missing out? Freedom. I wanted sex. It was all I could think about. Our marriage was on fumes.
I asked for and was granted permission to stray. An open relationship we would try. Divorce was not an option, not for my daughter or for business. To keep things steady, or at least seemingly steady.
Over the next six months, I made several trips to Las Vegas on my own. First meeting with a male escort, then hooking up with men I met at casino bars, then insisting on gifts in exchange for sex. And then the light bulb flashed. I wouldn't hire the escort. I would be the escort.
Within months, I was the number two-ranked escort in Vegas (yes, there actually are rankings out there), and top 10 in the world. I was never happier, never higher, never more alive.
For the first time in my life, I was independent, could take care of myself. I loved the taboo, the riskiness, the slight danger to it all, and I always had to take it a step further. It was never quite enough.
The money was intoxicating, but not the driving force. It was the thrill, the risk, the taboo, the attention, the power, the sex. All the while, an infuriated Mark covered for me, protecting my reputation, raising our child, keeping the real estate business going on his own, while I was off, totally out of control.
A year into my life as an escort, I was outed by a jilted client. A tabloid told of my activities to the world. My life had been taken away.
Suicidal thoughts crept back in. The world came crashing down on me. My husband would leave, take my child, my parents would abandon me, as would my friends, or so I believed.
To save these relationships, I felt compelled for once to seek help, even if for appearance sake.
Admittedly, I was beginning to feel there was something wrong with me after months of denial. This was the first time I had ever visited a psychiatrist. I tried my best to fool him that I was fine, that I could continue with my life "as is".
But within a couple of weeks, I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder, weaned off the anti-depressant that the doctor believed had driven me to a mostly constant manic state over the past year and a half.
The process of recovery would begin, slowly, with several bumps and relapses along the way.
My husband did not leave. He did not take my daughter from me. My parents failed to understand why, but they stuck with me, loved me the best they knew how.
Friends bailed on me, but many remained, though confused by it all. I had some support in the athletics world, but some considered me an embarrassment to the sport and wanted me to just go away. I also had to quit the real world job as it was not good for my bipolar.
How did the sweet, innocent Suzy wind up here?
My bipolar is manageable now. I learned to feel no shame for what I did. Regrets yes, but no shame. Shame holds you back and prevents recovery.
What hurts most though is what I put my loved ones through. My journey, as odd as it was, moulded me into a person I'm happier with.
I have more of a voice. I'm more independent. I'm a better wife, mother and friend as a result. I teach yoga and I am a public speaker on mental health matters. I'm healthier than I ever have been, I believe. I've found healthy coping mechanisms. I'm more compassionate than ever as I know what it's like to be shamed and shunned on an intimate level.
I'll never be cured, and I'll live with bipolar for the rest of my life. I know it won't always be smooth sailing ahead. But I'll always know that as dark as things might get in the future, it always gets better.


A group of conservation charities is launching its biggest ever recruitment drive for volunteers to help protect the native red squirrel.

A total of 5,000 squirrel-watchers are required across England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Volunteers will help protect resident squirrel populations.
Researchers say the species remains under threat because of disease and competition for food from larger grey squirrels, from north America.
This army of volunteers led by the Wildlife Trusts will focus on nine "red squirrel strongholds".
At each of these woodland sites, volunteers will be asked to monitor the animals, and to set up motion sensitive cameras for continuous, detailed surveys.
Squirrel-watchers will also be asked to look out for the larger, much more common grey squirrels, so that where they are encroaching on the reds' habitat, they can be culled.
A pox virus, carried by the greys and usually deadly to native reds, is largely blamed for the nationwide crash in the red squirrel population since the 1950s.
In the Pine forests of Scotland, the native species is faring better, with a population that appears to be increasing.
But having dedicated volunteers in these nine pockets of habitat, according to Wildlife Trusts ecologist Dr Cathleen Thomas, will be key to ensuring that this "icon" of the countryside doesn't disappear from the rest of Britain in the next few decades.
"We've seen a great deal of success, and numbers of reds increasing, where we have had dedicated groups of volunteers, so we want to co-ordinate that on a national scale," she told BBC News.
Controlling numbers of the greys, she added, was central to that success.
"It's not that we value the life of one species over another," Dr Thomas said. "But the ecosystem here evolved with the reds."
She added that the greys were "quite damaging" - their habit of gnawing bark can damage and kill trees, and the food they take can impact other wildlife, including birds and dormice.


Police in Glasgow have confirmed they are searching for a third youth they believe was injured during a fight in the centre of the city.

Two groups of youths were involved in the incident in Buchanan Street at about 16:10 on Friday.
An 18-year-old, and a boy aged 15, sustained stab wounds and were treated in hospital. The 18-year-old remains in Glasgow Royal Infirmary.
Officers believe a third teenager was injured but left the scene.
Det Sgt Colin MacRitchie said: "What we know is that a group of six to seven male youths were in Buchanan St, between West George Street and Bath St, when three of the group became involved in an altercation with at least one other man in the street.
"A number of his friends came to his aid and it is then that the fight took place.
"From CCTV and our inquiries, we understand that one man sustained an eye injury during the incident but he left before police arrived. It is essential that we trace him both to find out if he is OK and also what information he has about the assault."
He added: "We are also looking for three suspects who made off west in Bath Street following the attack. They are all described as white and in their late teens, early 20s."
Buchanan Street was busy at the time of the fight and some of the violence was captured on mobile phones.
Det Sgt MacRitchie asked anyone with video or stills to get in touch.
He said: "We know from social media and from speaking to witnesses that some of it was captured on mobile phones.
"If you have any footage at all, please let the police know. Police are also checking CCTV in the area to identify the third injured man and the suspects."


A police memory stick containing sensitive data about serious crimes and witnesses was stolen during a burglary at a detective's home, it has emerged.

The unencrypted device with no password protection stored details of 1,075 people with links to drug probes, arrest targets and officers' names.
Greater Manchester Police has been fined £120,000 by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)
The device was stolen in a burglary at a detective's home in July 2011.
In a report, ICO director of data protection David Smith said if the data got into the hands of "untrustworthy third parties" it could expose the people involved to physical harm.
He said: "This was truly sensitive personal data, left in the hands of a burglar by poor data security.
"The consequences of this type of breach really do send a shiver down the spine.
"It should have been obvious to the force that the type of information stored on its computers meant proper data security was needed.
"Instead, it has taken a serious data breach to prompt it into action."
Mr Smith added: "This is a substantial monetary penalty, reflecting the significant failings the force demonstrated.
"We hope it will discourage others from making the same data protection mistakes."
A similar security breach took place in September 2010 but the force failed to sufficiently re-train staff and put precautionary measures in place, the ICO said.
Ass Ch Const Lynne Potts said: "This was very much an isolated incident.
"We take all matters relating to the storage of data extremely seriously and have stringent measures in place to ensure the safe storage of data."

Unilever has bought US start-up Dollar Shave Club for a reported $1bn (Â£764m) in cash to compete in the male grooming market.

The four-year-old e-commerce company sells disposable razors and other male grooming products directly to consumers for as little as $1 a month.
Dollar Shave Club has 3.2 million members - but has yet to make a profit.
Founder Michael Dubin, who will remain as chief executive, said he was "excited" by the deal.
His company came to global attention after he posted a humorous marketing video about shaving on YouTube. The video went viral, crashing the company's server within an hour.
It now operates in the United States,  Australia and Canada.
But the company is facing legal action from rival Gillette, owned by Procter & Gamble, seeking unspecified damages. It claims that the coating used to strengthen its blades infringes on a Gillette patent.
Since that YouTube video, Dollar Shave Club has taken a sizeable slice out of Gillette's market share. In response Gillette introduced its own Gillette Shave Club last year.
Now the Anglo-Dutch multi-national Unilever wants to use Dollar Shave Club's  "innovative and disruptive male grooming brand" to compete with Gillette head on.
Unilever already has a foot in the male grooming market with the Axe brand, known as Lynx in the UK.
"We plan to leverage the global strength of Unilever to support Dollar Shave Club in achieving its full potential in terms of offering and reach," said Kees Kruythoff, president of Unilever North America.
Dollar Shave Club, which now also sells male personal wash, skincare and hair styling products, logged $152m in turnover last year and is "on track" to exceed $200m this year.
The firm was valued at around $615m following its latest venture capital funding round in November.


The assignment editor of the Venezuelan TV news network Globovision has been kidnapped, according to her father.

Nairobi Pinto was seized by two masked gunmen at her home in the capital Caracas, her father Luis said.
He asked the kidnappers to "see sense" and release his daughter.
Kidnappings, especially for ransom, are not uncommon in Venezuela, and a number of diplomats, as well as businessmen and athletes, have been abducted over the past years.
While the majority of those kidnapped for ransom are released hours or days after they were taken, some kidnap victims have been killed or died from injuries sustained during their ordeal.
In February, former Venezuelan boxing world champion Antonio Cermeno was killed after being kidnapped in Caracas.
His body was discovered with gunshot wounds on a roadside in the state of Miranda.
In 2012, the trade attache at the Costa Rican embassy in Caracas was abducted and later released. It is not clear if a ransom demand was met.
Also in 2012, the Mexican ambassador Carlos Pujalte and his wife were briefly kidnapped in Caracas before being released.
And in 2011, the Chilean consul in Caracas was abducted, beaten and shot in the leg before being released.
In the same year, baseball player Wilson Ramos, who plays for the Washington Nationals in the US, was also kidnapped from his family home in the city of Valencia before being rescued by the security forces.
Venezuela has one of the highest crime rates in the region. According to official figures, more than 11,000 people were killed in 2013, down from 16,000 in 2012.
But the non-governmental organisation Venezuelan Violence Observatory says the number of victims is closer to 25,000 for 2013.


One of Oldham Athletic's biggest backers has told Newsbeat he'd pull out if the club signs convicted rapist Ched Evans.

Craig Verling, whose company sponsors a stand at Boundary Park, said: "There's no way, in any way, shape or form we'll support a rapist."
Evans was set to join the Latics on a long-term deal on Monday.
But more than 25,000 people have signed an online petition urging Oldham not to sign the Welsh international.
Verling, who's managing director of Verlin Rainwater Solutions, said he wouldn't hesitate in ditching the club should the 26-year-old sign.
"My views as a family man, running a family business, is that we do not wish to support Oldham if Ched Evans signs.
"That's our stance on it. Whether people think my opinion is right or wrong doesn't really bother me."
Oldham Athletic's Chief Executive has declined to say whether the club will sign Ched Evans.
Neil Joy read a statement outside the club's Boundary Park ground in which he said the club would "continue to have conversations" with the Professional Footballers' Association and "conduct due diligence" on the potential signing of Evans.
"The young generation that are going to Oldham Athletic shouldn't be exposed to someone like Ched Evans," said Verling.
"I'm for people having a second chance in life. Ched Evans should have a second chance, but it should not be in the public eye - and it certainly shouldn't be as a role model to young people."
Evans has always maintained his innocence and an investigation by the Criminal Cases Review Commission into his conviction is ongoing.
"If he went to court and he was found not guilty, it would change 100%," Verling admitted.
"But the fact of the matter is he's not shown any remorse. And if he was to apologise this late on it would only be to further his career.
"The apology should have come way, way, way before now."
The League 1 club are no strangers to controversy.
In 2007 they signed Lee Hughes, the former West Brom striker who had recently been released from prison after causing death by dangerous driving.
Verling wouldn't support a similar move for Evans, but said he would continue to support the club should they back out of any deal.
"I'd support 100% the decision not to sign him. If Oldham Athletic didn't sign Ched Evans then as far as I'm concerned nothing's changed."

Former Newcastle striker Shola Ameobi scored what proved the winner in a Fleetwood victory that saw Gillingham's promotion hopes take a knock.

Wes Burns' corner caught a gust of wind and clipped a Gills head before flying past stranded keeper Stuart Nelson.
The hosts went 2-0 in front when Burns crossed for Ameobi to smash home his first for the club at the far post.
Luke Norris' drive reduced Gillingham's deficit, but Elliott List missed the chance to level from six yards out.


America's Jimmy Walker shot an eight under par 65 to take a two-shot lead at the Tournament of Champions in Hawaii.

The 2016 PGA Championship winner posted six birdies and an eagle to head a strong field after the first PGA Tour round of 2017.
American trio Jim Herman, Justin Thomas and Ryan Moore are tied second after scoring six-under rounds of 67.
Scotland's Russell Knox is tied 19th on two under, after carding four birdies and two bogeys in his 71.

The way that offenders sentenced to unpaid community work in England and Wales are managed and supervised has been criticised by inspectors.

HM Inspectorate of Probation found delays in getting offenders to start their work, and said too many were let off if they did not attend.
In one case, an offender had completed just 16 hours in the 17 months since he had been sentenced.
The Ministry of Justice said it was acting on the report's recommendations.
Anything from 40 to 300 hours of unpaid work - or "community payback" - may be given for offences like shoplifting, theft, drug offences, or criminal damage.
Some 70,000 offenders were ordered to do unpaid work such as garden maintenance, decorating or litter-picking in 2014.
Inspectors looked at 100 cases and interviewed 86 offenders from different probation divisions for their report.
The report outlined 15 recommendations for improvement.
Some of the problems identified were:
Seven years ago the government, then led by Gordon Brown, placed an order for 10,000 orange bibs.
They were to be worn by offenders doing unpaid work under a re-branded scheme known as "community payback".
It was intended to give the public confidence that community sentences, involving clearing communal paths and gardens, picking up litter and painting over graffiti, were a "tough" alternative to imprisonment.
When the coalition came to power in 2010 it promised to make unpaid work more physical and intense, with unemployed offenders required to complete their sentences more quickly.
The difficulty has always been organisation. Getting people who lead chaotic lives - many of them with drink or drug problems - to work on time is a task in itself.
If sanctions are applied, they will end up in prison; if not, the sentence cannot be enforced. As the inspection report reveals, it is a problem the authorities still have not solved.
Inspectors did praise instances of high-quality work, and cases where offenders believed they had gained skills from using good tools and equipment.
They also highlighted that many offenders viewed their sentence positively and "were determined to... desist from future offending".
Among its recommendations were that community rehabilitation companies should reduce how often offenders are turned away from work when they have reported on time, and to try to create objectives for unpaid work that "match the circumstances of the offender".
The chief inspector of probation, Paul Wilson, said it appeared in most cases that unpaid work was viewed simply as a punishment, which was a "wasted opportunity".
"Although we found some high-quality management and delivery, much of it was simply not good enough, lacking in focus on the basic requirement to deliver and enforce the sentence of the court."
He called for "urgent remedial action".
A Ministry of Justice spokesperson said it wanted "much more effective rehabilitation" - which had to start with making sure offenders turned up on time and faced consequences if they did not.
"It's totally unacceptable for offenders to skip work enforced by the courts.
"We accept all the recommendations for the Ministry of Justice in this report and are already taking action to implement them."


Bradford Bulls' future has been secured after the administrators confirmed the Super League club has been sold to Omar Khan's consortium.

The Bulls had been in administration since June and were facing liquidation.
But administrator Brendan Guilfoyle said in a statement that he had sold Bradford Bulls Holdings Limited to OK Bulls Limited for an undisclosed sum.
The Rugby Football League will not ratify the takeover until next week, but that is expected to be a formality.
The Bradford restaurant owner's consortium, which included Bradford South MP Gerry Sutcliffe, and Bradford Park Avenue were confirmed as front runners to buy the Bulls by the Rugby Football League.
And a total of four bids were placed for the Bulls, including one from Super League (Europe) Ltd which was considered a last resort.
My main duty as administrator is to get the best return for creditors - and this was the best deal on the table
"This is a great achievement for Bradford Bulls, the players, fans and the city of Bradford," said Guilfoyle.
"My main duty as administrator is to get the best return for creditors - and this was the best deal on the table.
"Omar Khan has also passed the Rugby Football League's test as being a 'fit and proper person' to run a rugby club as well as being a passionate fan of the Bulls."
Despite being deducted six points for entering administration, the Bulls remain in the Super League play-off places with two matches remaining after a run of three straight wins.
Guilfoyle added: "I am really pleased that we were able to retain the playing squad without selling off young stars - which in the end was a crucial decision to achieve the sale.
"There are many people to thank in making this deal possible, not least employees, coaches and the interim chief executive who have all been working without pay.
"But I'm sure they would join me in saying the fans' support has been outstanding and they have played a major part in this rescue.
"And through all this the players have won an extraordinary string of matches."


Three companies wanting to run a £91m entertainment arena in Bristol are being asked to bid for a 25-year lease.

Bristol Arena, a 12,000-seat music venue, will be located at the Temple Quarter Enterprise Zone.
The arena is part of the city's plan to regenerate about 70 hectares (170 acres) surrounding Bristol Temple Meads station and is due to open in 2017.
The bidders have until 1 September to submit their applications to Bristol City Council.
They must outline how they would run the facility and the amount they would pay as an annual lease to the council.
The authority will select a preferred and reserved bidder in October, with the contract running for at least 25 years.
The winning bidder will be involved in the design of the arena and in charge of operating, maintaining and managing it for the duration of the lease.
West of England Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) will contribute £53m towards the cost of building the arena, with the remaining £38m funded by Bristol City Council.
The Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) is also investing £11m in regenerating and improving access to the site.


A 25-year-old Wilts & Dorset double-decker bus has been spotted trundling the streets of San Francisco.

The bus "complete with UK adverts" was described as looking a "little lost in San Fran" by surprised residents.
City resident Alan Milford said: "It drove past and I snapped it as it was so out of place."
Andrew Wickham, from the UK bus operator, said it was one of a fleet of double-deckers shipped to the States about a year ago.
Shots of the "random English" double-decker struggling through traffic in San Francisco first started appearing on social media in October.
Former BBC Radio Five Live presenter Caroline Feraday, who spotted it in the city centre, posted a shot with the tweet: "I can't help but think this Wiltshire & Dorset school bus is a little lost".
While Dan Cassell said he was "speechless" when he saw it go by.
He added: "It even said it was going to Christchurch!"
Mr Wickham insisted it was "not one of their longer services" but actually part of a fleet of double-deckers shipped to the United States about a year ago.
"The buses had reached the end of their lives and they [Americans] love English double-decker buses," he said.
"They were bought by the British Bus Company in San Diego and were shipped across to Florida and then driven across the States.
"It's pretty unusual to ship old double-decker buses to the US and they would have had well over a million miles on the clock."
But Fred Corlett, from the British Bus Company, said all five double-deckers which took on the "3,000 mile journey across the USA" had "made it".
"The one in San Francisco is operated by San Francisco Deluxe Tours and we have two in San Diego that are also still operating in Wilts & Dorset Livery," he said.
"The vehicles are so well maintained and presented  - we have reserved the next two buses to be retired this summer."


A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a woman was found dead and a man suffered life-threatening injuries at a bungalow in Chelmsford.

Essex Police said they were called at 01:30 BST to reports a man was being assaulted at the home in Pines Road.
Officers arrived to find a woman in her 50s dead and a man, also in his 50s, with serious injuries. He is in Broomfield Hospital.
A 31-year-old man from Chelmsford has been arrested and is in police custody.


Injuries to the brain are impossible to detect at the scene of an accident.

The end result is either a waste of resources, as patients are sent for expensive and unnecessary scans.
Or worse, the full extent of the injury doesn't become apparent until hours later, often with fatal results.
That was exactly what happened in the tragic case of actor Natasha Richardson.
In 2009 she fell while skiing and initially laughed the incident off and refused any medical treatment.
But two days later she died from a brain injury sustained during the accident.
For doctors, a simple blood test to detect brain injury would be a huge deal.
It would reveal the patients who, despite all looking and acting perfectly fine, were actually seriously injured and, on top of that, save money on expensive scans for those that are fine.
And this is what researchers in Birmingham have achieved; the first blood test for brain damage.
It works by looking for tiny amounts of chemicals produced when the brain is injured.
A small drop of blood is placed on a silicon and gold chip and then it is placed in a special detector for analysis.
The team from the University of Birmingham and the Queen Elizabeth Hospital have used blood from real patients as part of their research.
They say their test reveals accurately which patients have damage to the brain and which are fine.
The aim is to reduce the size of the prototype detector by half so it could be carried by an ambulance and used at the scene of an accident.
At the moment the prototype detector is quite large and sits on a lab bench.
The finished device should be briefcase-sized and easy to keep in an ambulance, at a sports ground or even in an army vehicle on a battlefield.
This research has caught the eye of Alta Innovations Limited, a company set up by the university to get promising research like this to market.
They hope a real detector could be on sale in three years.
If they succeed, it would be an invention that saves money and lives.


We are exactly a quarter of the way through the Premier League season and some teams at the bottom of the table seem to be turning things around after making a bad start.

You can see highlights of Sunderland v Arsenal on Match of the Day at 22:20 BST on Saturday on BBC One and the BBC Sport website.
Stoke and West Ham, for example, have started to climb away from the relegation zone but the biggest worry for Sunderland fans is that their side do not look remotely capable of doing the same.
I know the Black Cats have got out of trouble before having found themselves in a similar situation but this time, after picking up only two points from their first nine games, things look really desperate for the only top-flight team without a win.
At least one element of their struggles seems to be self-inflicted, with everyone at the club feeling sorry for themselves - and not just because they have lost some players to injury and conceded some costly late goals.
There is a negative feeling about the place with the manager David Moyes and his players talking about how they have gone backwards since last season, when they should be searching for any kind of spark that could change things around.
From the outside, looking at the way they play and their lack of creativity, it is hard to see what that spark might be or what could fundamentally change under Moyes until the January transfer window opens.
If they can get one win under their belt then they will get a bit of belief back but, the longer this winless run goes on, the more negativity there will be.

Sunderland finished last season on a high under Sam Allardyce, with a run of just one defeat in their last 11 games securing their safety.
In the space of five months, all of that confidence and momentum seems to have been sucked out of the club, despite them effectively having the same group of players who, not so long ago, looked inspired.
That is not all down to Moyes, but he has to take some responsibility for it.
I am yet to see a defined style of play from Sunderland since he took charge at the end of July.
That is in contrast to Allardyce's time as manager, when they were resolute and difficult to beat and, at the end of his stint at the Stadium of Light, also played with a purpose when they went forward.
Off the pitch, Moyes has not helped himself much either.
There was no need for him to be so pessimistic when he came out after the second game of the season and announced they would be in a relegation fight, which did not send out the right message to his players or the fans.
When he took charge, he had actually started out by being unrealistically positive - talking about Sunderland becoming a club that regularly finished in the top half of the Premier League - but his expectations went downhill very quickly.
I know you can argue that he has been proved right, because Sunderland are now battling the drop, but it meant there was a cloud over from them almost as soon as the season had started.
It seems to be a case that if you stop Jermain Defoe, you stop Sunderland. His statistics stand up well in comparison to last season, but the rest of their team are not doing enough in attack.
They were reliant on Defoe last season too, but others did chip in - in their first nine league games of 2015-16, five players found the net. This time around, only Defoe and Patrick van Aanholt have scored in the same period.
It is going to be a massive struggle for them to stay up from the position they are now in anyway, but they badly need a win and quickly. I don't see it coming at home to Arsenal on Saturday, though.
Do they even look capable of holding out for a draw against the Gunners, the way another struggling team Middlesbrough did at Emirates Stadium last weekend? No.
If you struggle to make chances and score goals, as Sunderland do, that puts more pressure on your defence because you know if you concede then you are in big trouble.
And the Black Cats have problems at the back as well - their only clean sheet in 12 matches under Moyes was against League One side Shrewsbury Town in the EFL Cup.
It does not bode well against an Arsenal side that are averaging more than two goals a game this season.
It is hard to find any positives from Sunderland's situation but at least they have not been cut adrift at the bottom - yet.
Unless they win soon, that could happen. I think Hull are also in for a very tough season but when I look at the other two teams immediately above them, Boro and Swansea, they definitely have more about them than the Black Cats do.

Changing manager has clearly not helped Sunderland and comparisons with his predecessor do not help Moyes much either.
You cannot tell me that, if Allardyce was still in charge, Sunderland would have only picked up two points so far. It just would not have happened.
Moyes replaced him relatively late in the summer, which is difficult in itself, but he can only complain about the things that have gone against him up to a point. He should be doing much better than he is.
He is still the manager and he is capable of turning things around, so it is right there is no suggestion of him getting the sack.
But that will not last forever. This industry is results-driven and Moyes' results are not good enough.
That clearly has to change soon and, looking at Sunderland's next few fixtures, the one that stands out as a must-win is their home game against Hull on 19 November.
If they fail to beat Arsenal and Bournemouth, then the visit of the Tigers will be the game to define Moyes' tenure.  If Sunderland are still without a win after that, things will become extremely difficult for him.
Chris Sutton was speaking to BBC Sport's Chris Bevan.


Recycling efforts by four Welsh councils will be boosted by an extra £3m to help them meet higher targets.

Flintshire, Neath Port Talbot, Newport and Wrexham won their bids for cash for new vehicles, depots and equipment.
Of the four, only Newport failed to hit the target of recycling 52% of rubbish in 2014 but the target is now 58%.
Natural Resources Minister Carl Sargeant said the aim was to achieve a "more consistent universal service across Wales".
Merthyr Tydfil and Rhondda Cynon Taff were the worst performers in 2013-14, both recycling less than half of all rubbish they collected.


A massive fire has ripped through a derelict warehouse building at a disused dock in Gloucester.

Gloucestershire Fire and Rescue Service said it was called to Bakers Quay at 18:47 BST and had now brought the blaze under control.
Two 19-year-old men from Gloucester have been arrested on suspicion of arson and are in police custody.
The shell of the 19th Century building is said to be structurally unsafe and a section has collapsed.
A fire service spokesman said rugby supporters had been at a nearby fan zone in the docks area watching the England v Australia match, but there was no risk to them or a need to evacuate the site.
The service later tweeted: "Bakers Quay fire out. Crew will stay on site. Engineers will advise re building safety. Thanks all for hard work & patience".


A widespread anti-austerity strike in Finland has shut down ports and disrupted flights in the country, news agencies have reported.

Finnair, the national carrier, has cancelled 16 domestic flights and delays are expected.
Trains and city buses have stopped running, but ferries, including those to Sweden and Estonia, are operational.
Strikers are protesting against government cutbacks, including limits to benefits and overtime pay.
Talks on a collective agreement on wages and working hours collapsed, leading to the strike, Associated Press reported.
Last week, Finnish Prime Minister Juha Sipila announced plans aimed at reviving the eurozone member's economy after three years of recession.
The plans included cutting back holidays, reducing pensioners' housing allowances, and reductions in  employees' overtime and Sunday pay.
"The Finnish state has contracted debt at a rate of almost a million euros (£730,000) per hour for seven years, day and night, every day of the week.  We cannot continue like this," Mr Sipila said.
Police and organisers expect thousands of people to demonstrate in Helsinki, the AFP news agency reported.


A British tourist has raised more than £6,000 for staff at the Tunisian hotel hit by a deadly attack after he decided to stay for the rest of his holiday.

Nathan Priestley set up an online fundraising page for the Hotel Rui Imperial Marhaba workers after 90% of guests left after Friday's massacre.
"They were incredibly heroic," said Mr Priestley, 21, of Norwich, who fears the workers' jobs are under threat.
The 30 British victims out of the 38 killed have now been identified.
Gym instructor Mr Priestley was on a day trip at the time of the beachfront assault by gunman Seifeddine Rezgui.
He said the scene when he returned was "absolute carnage".
"Walking back into the hotel, I still have images of the blood and body bags... and where they were taking them out to hospital," he said.
The fundraiser was launched on Tuesday to help the staff at the Rui Imperial Marhaba and the neighbouring Hotel Rui Bellevue Park.
"One had to run and cover up dead bodies so the fleeing children wouldn't see them on their return to the hotel," said Mr Priestley.
"Our head waiter was absolutely distraught - he was hugging everyone and crying and saying he was so sorry."
Mr Priestley, who will fly back on Thursday night after his seven-day stay, initially wanted to raise £1,000 to give to the workers.
"Many of them have been told not to come into work because there are barely any guests left," said Mr Priestly.
"The staff are overwhelmed from the support and cannot thank us enough."
