bbc--2020-09-13--The coal-pots fuelling Antigua's ghost stories and folk tales

Ask the elders in Antigua and Barbuda for their memories of communal meals in days gone by and many will recall with fondness the times spent sitting around a traditional earthenware pot , heated by hot coals , as the evening meal cooked .
Culinary techniques may have evolved over the years but the skilled practice of moulding the clay vessels entirely by hand and firing them on an open bonfire survives to this day .
At sunrise , she is found elbow-deep in a bag of damp black clay which she will shape into a `` jabba '' - @ @ @ @ @ @ @ calabash to plane the sides .
It takes about half an hour to form , she explains .
Then it will be left to dry in the air for several days before being daubed with red clay mixed with water as a varnish .
The final stage is the firing .
This part , Mrs Lyne says arranging her creations among a pile of tree branches soaked in fuel , is the reason why the art is in decline .
For Mrs Lyne 's grandmother , pottery was a thriving business .
Back @ @ @ @ @ @ @ British control , she sold her pieces for two pence each .
The cooking pots Mrs Lyne makes , along with the ashtrays and figurines she sells to tourists for a few dollars , are a supplement to her day job as a cleaner .
These days much of the pottery seen in backyards nationwide is largely decorative , a nod to nostalgia and handy as flowerpots .
But some traditionalists still use the vessels for cooking , and roadside stalls barbecuing ears of corn on them and simmering stews can be seen @ @ @ @ @ @ @ every house in Antigua has a coal-pot in case the gas runs out , '' Mrs Lyne says .
`` You can cook anything you want in it really and it only takes a few minutes longer than a stove . ''
Sea View Farm has been a hub for pottery because both types of clay used are found within its environs - although the exact locations are kept secret from outsiders .
While Amerindians are known to have used ceramics for cooking , some of the varieties which persist today are likely @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that Antiguans ' ancestors brought with them from Africa .
`` When I was a child all the cooking was on a coal-pot ; we did n't use a stove until the early 70s .
But my niece still uses a coal-pot every weekend , '' Mrs Lyne says .
The time-honoured practice makes for a unique taste too .
Coals or wood are placed inside the bowl of the structure used to support the `` jabba '' which sits atop it .
`` The pots are mainly used for slow-cooked food like @ @ @ @ @ @ @ resident , attorney George Lake .
`` The use of wood or coals gives a smoky , earthy flavour . ''

These days much of the pottery seen in backyards nationwide is largely decorative, a nod to nostalgia and handy as flowerpots. But some traditionalists still use the vessels for cooking, and roadside stalls barbecuing ears of corn on them and simmering stews can be seen sporadically across the landscape.

The BBC 's weekly The Boss series profiles different business leaders from around the world .
This week we speak to Jules Miller , founder of dietary supplements firm The Nue Co. Jules Miller says she became so ill that she had internal bleeding .
`` I was exhausted , bloated , I was n't living a normal life anymore .
That 's when I started to think about food , wellness and supplements . ''
This was back in 2015 .
Living a stressful life in London , Jules , then aged 30 , had been diagnosed with irritable @ @ @ @ @ @ @ started taking supplements to try to alleviate the problem , but found that nothing worked .
She says that some even made her feel worse , and she was alarmed that most of the pills she tried were full of fillers and bulking agents .
At this stage many of us in her predicament may have got depressed , worried or angry , but Jules had a secret weapon - her grandfather was a chemist at the University of Cambridge .
So with her granddad - the late Prof George Miller - she @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ingredients .
`` It was a great insight , '' says Jules , now 35 .
`` There were brands out there that were supposed to help you , but they contained ingredients that were clinically proven to bring on other symptoms . ''
Her work with her grandfather inspired Jules to start her own all-natural supplements business .
And in 2017 she launched Nue .
Today the business has reported global annual revenues of $ 7m ( £5.4m ) .
Jules says that so far this year sales have soared six-fold compared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to more people being concerned about their underlying health in the face of the coronavirus pandemic .
• The foods we are all eating during lockdown Half-Colombian , Jules was born in the South American country , and Spanish is her first language .
She moved to London with her parents when she was seven .
After school she studied philosophy at Birmingham University , before working in advertising in London .
Prior to launching Nue she was head of business development for vegetarian food firm Detox Kitchen .
Looking back at when @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was fearless .
`` I think if I launched another business now I would n't have the confidence I had then , '' she says .
`` I was so cocky .
I wrote down a list of things I did n't know , and individuals who might have the answer , and I emailed them .
Two people she contacted were Natalie Massenet , the founder of fashion retailer Net-a-Porter , and Harvey Spevak , the boss of US fitness firm Equinox .
Luckily for Jules both replied , and she had @ @ @ @ @ @ @ initial product was called Debloat , a supplement to alleviate IBS that Jules found worked for her .
Other items then followed , such as vitamins and , more recently , skin creams .
The company was based in Cambridge to begin with , but within its first year of trading it relocated to New York .
Jules says this was to allow it to better take advantage of the fact that the US is the largest market for dietary supplements .
`` Some 80 % of Americans are taking vitamins or another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to it . ''
Globally the supplements sector is booming , with a report last year saying it was expected to see annual sales rise to $ 210bn ( £160bn ) by 2026 , up from $ 125bn ( £95bn ) in 2018 .
Nue started out in 2017 by selling via its website , but its products are now stocked by a number of retailers , and it has one shop of its own , in New York .
The business has now secured $ 11.5m in funding in total , including @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Jules and her husband Charlie Gower remain the largest shareholders .
He also holds the chief operating officer job , while Jules is the chief executive .
Caroline Peyton , a British nutritional therapist , says it is good that the company talks about exactly what goes into its products .

`` Having great clarity about this is a good thing for the industry .
There will always be a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ some people value paying a bit more for purity . ''
But how necessary are dietary supplements ?
In the UK the National Health Service advises taking vitamin D tablets if you are not getting exposed to enough sunlight .

And supplements should not be used as a substitute for a healthy diet .
`` There are though , importantly , some cases where supplementation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ folic acid supplement during pre-conception and early pregnancy . ''
Jules says it is all about finding out what supplements work for you .
Nue also ran a campaign last year urging people to be mindful of their mental health .
Called `` How are you really ? ''
it talked about how the wider wellness sector was guilty of focusing solely on people 's physical wellbeing .
`` We want people to listen to their bodies , as everyone 's journey , like mine , is personal , '' says Jules .

Lewis Hamilton took his 90th career victory by beating Mercedes team-mate Valtteri Bottas in a chaotic, incident-strewn Tuscan Grand Prix.
The race was punctuated by two red flags, the first caused by a pile-up on the pit straight, the second by a high-speed crash for Lance Stroll.
In one of the most dramatic races for years, six cars had retired before a lap of racing had completed.
Red Bull's Thai-British driver Alex Albon took a maiden podium in third.
Hamilton's win was his sixth in nine races this season and, coupled with a fastest lap secured on the penultimate tour, it extended his championship lead to 55 points as the season passes halfway, and puts him just one behind Michael Schumacher's all-time record of wins.
Hamilton is one win away from equalling Michael Schumacher's record of 91 victories in Formula 1

What caused the huge pile-up?
While Grosjean's Haas was lucky to make it out of the gravel, the Red Bull of Verstappen was not
Amid the sequence of incidents and crashes, the victory hinged on three standing starts between the Mercedes drivers.
In the first, Hamilton got away poorly from pole position and lost the lead to Bottas, but racing lasted only three corners because of a crash between Kimi Raikkonen's Alfa Romeo, Alpha Tauri's Pierre Gasly and Haas driver Romain Grosjean.
The incident also took out Red Bull's Max Verstappen, who had been struck by engine problems as he accelerated away from third on the grid.
That led to a safety car, and at the restart, as Bottas bunched up the field down the pit straight, there was a massive crash towards the back of the field.
Haas' Kevin Magnussen accelerated and then slowed, he said because of cars doing the same in front of him. Williams driver Nicholas Latifi swerved to avoid him and Alfa Romeo's Antonio Giovinazzi then cannoned into Magnussen.
McLaren's Carlos Sainz then hit the back of the cars of both Giovinazzi and Magnussen, pitching the Alfa 90 degrees into the air before it came down on all four wheels.
How Hamilton got the lead
Stroll's car suffered significant damage in his high-speed accident
At the restart, the positions of the Mercedes drivers was reversed. Hamilton drafted Bottas down to Turn One and took the lead around the outside, controlling the race from there.
The Mercedes drivers disappeared off into the distance and appeared untroubled, but Bottas developed problems with excessive wear of his front tyres and began to drop dramatically away from Hamilton.
Bottas had to pit earlier than expected for fresh tyres. Hamilton followed him in next time around and the two drivers were instructed to stay off the kerbs to protect their tyres.
The race appeared done, but that was counting without another development.
Racing Point's Stroll was in the middle of a three-way fight for third with Renault's Daniel Ricciardo in front and Albon behind when his left rear tyre exploded as he entered the second of the two 170mph Arrabbiata corners.
That led to a second red flag, to repair the barrier.
The final part of the race
Ricciardo was pushing for his first podium finish with Renault
At the restart, with just 12 laps remaining, Bottas again got away slowly and lost second place to Ricciardo.
But the Finn was able to pass the Renault next time around and secure second place.
That left Ricciardo defending from Albon for third, which would have been the first podium for Renault since they returned to the sport in 2016.
But Albon had too much pace in the Red Bull and passed the Renault with a lovely move around the outside of the first corner with three laps to go to take his maiden F1 podium.
Albon made hard work of the result. Starting fourth, he dropped back to seventh at the second start and had to fight his way back up, which he did with some excellent passes.
Ricciardo took fourth, ahead of Racing Point's Sergio Perez and McLaren's Lando Norris.
Williams driver George Russell just missed out on his first points, finishing 11th, behind Ferrari's Sebastian Vettel.
Ferrari had a difficult day as they celebrated their 1,000th F1 Grand Prix. Charles Leclerc was running third early on, but dropped down the field, lacking pace and straight-line speed and finished eighth.
Driver of the day
A tough one after such a staccato race but let's give it to Albon. The start of his first full season with Red Bull, after being promoted mid-way through 2019, has not been great, and he has come under pressure because of his lack of pace compared to team-mate Verstappen. But he grabbed his opportunity with some typically aggressive and skilled passes and deserved his podium. "I can breathe," he said, reflecting the relief.
What's next
A welcome two-week break after nine races in 11 weeks before the Russian Grand Prix, where Hamilton can equal a record some felt might never be broken - Schumacher's haul of 91 victories.
What they said
Lewis Hamilton: "It was all a bit of daze. It was like three races in one day. Just incredibly tough today. This track is phenomenal and the heat and keeping Valtteri behind was not easy.

It seemed like there was never an opportunity once I lost the position at the second start. That is how it goes. I will just keep pushing and keep trying to get better. It has to turn out well for me at some point."
Alex Albon: "It was good obviously it is a while to get here but it was a tough one. I had to work for it. I am happy. I can breathe. It is nice to be here. It was brutal, especially the high-speed in sector two. It is more adrenaline going in my body than anything else. I am happy."

Thiem had lost three consecutive Grand Slam finals: the 2018 and 2019 French Opens, followed by the Australian Open earlier this year
Austria's Dominic Thiem clinched his first Grand Slam title after a gritty fightback from two sets down stunned Alexander Zverev in the US Open final.
Second seed Thiem, 27, had lost his previous three major finals and looked destined for another agonising defeat.
But 23-year-old Zverev, playing in his first Slam final, became edgy at key moments and Thiem took full advantage.
Both players failed to serve out victory in a tense decider before Thiem sealed a 2-6 4-6 6-4 6-3 7-6 (8-6) win.
Thiem took his third championship point when Zverev pulled a backhand wide, leaving the Austrian - who suffered cramp during the tie-break - falling flat on his back in celebration.
When he climbed back to his feet, he found a gracious Zverev - with whom he is close friends - waiting to hug him at the net.
"I wish we could have two winners today, we both deserve it," Thiem told Zverev, whom he has known since they were juniors.
Thiem is the first player to claim a Grand Slam title from two sets down since Argentine Gaston Gaudio at the French Open in 2004.
It had been longer since anyone achieved this feat in New York, with Thiem emulating American Pancho Gonzales' comeback in 1949.
Thiem, who remains third in the world rankings, is the first man to win a maiden Grand Slam singles title since Croat Marin Cilic's 2014 US Open victory.
The absence of 2019 champion Rafael Nadal and Swiss great Roger Federer at the behind-closed-doors Grand Slam, plus the expulsion of top seed Novak Djokovic for hitting a line judge with a ball, opened the door for a new name to be etched on to a major trophy.
Thiem took his opportunity to become the first man outside the 'Big Three' to win the Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon or US Open since Switzerland's Stan Wawrinka triumphed at Flushing Meadows in 2016.
Thiem overcomes edgy start to fulfil Grand Slam dream
While this final was not of the same ilk as some recent Grand Slam classics, it developed into a gripping contest which was impossible to call right up to the very last ball.
Odd moments of brilliance from both players were outweighed by mistakes, with the match eventually won by a battle of the minds as much as their techniques.
Thiem was the favourite to take advantage of the absence of the 'Big Three' and finally land his maiden Grand Slam title.
The Austrian had lost the past two French Open finals to Nadal, who cemented his place as the greatest clay-courter of all-time by winning his 11th and 12th titles at Roland Garros.
Then he lost February's Australian Open final against Djokovic, who claimed a record eighth title in Melbourne.
So this was the first major final where the world number three was not playing one of the game's greats.
Whether his jittery start came as a result of that additional expectation to achieve his ultimate career goal, or perhaps an Achilles injury that bothered him in Friday's semi-final against Daniil Medvedev, was unclear.
Eventually, he settled down to the task after trailing by two sets and a break. Thiem started to land more first serves and find more fizz in his returning game, as well as being aided by Zverev's own edginess starting to appear in the third and fourth sets.
Momentum had now swung back to the Austrian and when he broke serve in the first game of the decider, it seemed like that might have been the catalyst for him to close out victory relatively comfortably.
That was not the case as the drama stepped up. Thiem hit a double fault on break point in the next game, then fought back from 0-30 in the sixth game after a stunning forehand winner down the line.
Little separated the pair as they were locked at 3-3, having won 139 points each in the match, and led to that riveting finale where they split four breaks of serves before the tie-break decided the outcome.
Tearful Zverev falls agonisingly short
Zverev was aiming to become Germany's first Grand Slam men's champion since Boris Becker at the 1996 Australian Open
Like Thiem, Zverev was also aiming to fulfil his much vaunted potential by winning a first Grand Slam title.
The 23-year-old made a confident start in his first major final as he moved into a two-set lead, but some of his weaknesses - particularly the tendency to hit double faults under pressure - began to appear.
Two double faults in the fifth-set tie-break gave the upper hand to Thiem, who eventually got over the line despite struggling physically in the final moments.
Zverev's heartbreak at the manner of his defeat was clear, breaking down in tears as he struggled through his runner-up speech.
He cried as he tried to thank his parents Alexander - also his coach - and Irina who were not in New York after testing positive for coronavirus.
"I miss them. I'm sure they are sitting at home pretty proud even though I lost. I wish one day I can bring the trophy home," he said.
For so long Zverev had been touted as a major winner but had failed to deliver on the Grand Slam stage.
That was until he reached his first Grand Slam semi-final at the Australian Open earlier this year - where he lost to Thiem - and then backed that up by going one better in New York.
"It was a tough battle and I wish you had missed a little bit more so I could lift that trophy," he told Thiem.
"To my team, the last two years haven't been easy but we are definitely on our way up."
Analysis
BBC tennis correspondent Russell Fuller
An astonishing Grand Slam final - which had moments of sheer genius, and others which felt like intruding on private grief.
For the first two sets, Thiem was listless and horribly off key; Zverev often excelling in his first Grand Slam final.
The final set produced the best tennis of the match, but also moments of unbearable stress and pressure. Both served for the title, and in the tie-break Zverev's two double faults made the difference, after Thiem looked to have a case of terminal cramp.
Perhaps we underestimated just how stressful it would be to win a Grand Slam in the absence of Djokovic, Federer and Nadal. Without any of them as opponents in the final, neither could pretend they had nothing to lose.
It will be a crushing disappointment to Zverev, but he has reached a semi-final and a final in this year's two majors, with still so much room to improve.
Thiem, meanwhile, is likely to become an even more formidable Grand Slam foe for Djokovic and Nadal.
He will think anything is possible right now, but surely even this extraordinary athlete will need more than 13 days to get ready for another tilt at a major title at the French Open in Paris.

Neymar has been sent off three times in his Paris St-Germain career
Neymar was one of five players sent off after an injury-time brawl as Marseille beat Paris St-Germain in Ligue 1.
As he left the pitch, PSG's Brazil forward told the fourth official he had heard a racist comment.
Florian Thauvin scored the only goal as PSG lost their opening two league games for the first time since 1984-85.
Home substitutes Leandro Paredes and Layvin Kurzawa, and Marseille's Jordan Amavi and Dario Benedetto, were dismissed along with Neymar.
The referee watched a video assistant referee (VAR) replay of a punch by Neymar before showing the 28-year-old a straight red card.
After the match, Neymar posted on social media to say that his "only regret" was not hitting Marseille's Spanish defender Alvaro Gonzalez in the face, having struck him on the back of the head.
In response, Gonzalez denied claims of any wrongdoing, posting on social media: "There is no place for racism."
In the post-match news conference Marseille manager Andre Villas-Boas said: "There is no place for racism in football but I don't think that was the case.
"We'll have to look at it."
The game, which was watched by a crowd of about 5,000 fans at the Parc des Princes, was fractious even before that late brawl. There were 17 cards shown, a record for a Ligue 1 game in the 21st Century.

A melee broke out, with Kurzawa and Amavi punching and kicking each other.
Benedetto and Paredes were shown second yellow cards, with Kurzawa and Amavi given straight reds.

What about the game itself?
Under any other circumstances the headlines would have been about a famous victory for Villas-Boas' Marseille over the French champions.
Marseille had last beaten PSG in Le Classique - one of French football's biggest rivalries - in 2011.
PSG - who were beaten 1-0 by promoted Lens on Thursday - have lost their opening two league matches for the first time in 36 years. They finished 13th that season.
The last time they lost their opening two fixtures without scoring was 1978.
Including the Champions League final against Bayern Munich only 21 days ago, that is three 1-0 defeats in a row for Thomas Tuchel's side.
Thauvin scored the only goal when he volleyed Dimitri Payet's free-kick in from close range. Di Maria and Benedetto both had goals disallowed for offside.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin's goal was his 25th for Everton in the Premier League, equalling Wayne Rooney's total for the Toffees
Dominic Calvert-Lewin's brilliant header ensured new-look Everton made a flying start to the Premier League season with victory at Tottenham.
Calvert-Lewin gave Hugo Lloris no chance after getting between Toby Alderweireld and Eric Dier to connect with Lucas Digne's in-swinging free-kick to earn the Toffees a first win over Spurs since 2012.
In a high-octane encounter, Jordan Pickford produced two excellent saves to keep out Dele Alli and Matt Doherty, who was making his debut after signing from Wolves.
But with new signing James Rodriguez in excellent form, Everton fully deserved their win after a hard-working performance.
Everton should have taken the lead in the early stages but Richarlison lost his footing after rounding Spurs keeper Lloris.
New-look Everton turn on the style
After Everton's disappointing 12th place last season, their lowest position since 2003-04, Carlo Ancelotti has embarked on an ambitious rebuilding job, specifically targeting the midfield.
As well as Rodriguez, Brazil's Allan and Watford's Abdoulaye Doucoure have also been drafted in to provide energy and creativity in the engine room - and all three gave Ancelotti huge encouragement for the season ahead.
Rodriguez, in particular, stood out, with his quality passing. The signing from Real Madrid created five opportunities for his team-mates, the most by a player on their Premier League debut since Alexis Sanchez back in August 2014.
The Toffees could - and should - have won by a more handsome margin against a static Tottenham side short of ideas.
Everton have the squad to compete - Ancelotti
Rodriguez twice picked out Richarlison after half-time but the Brazilian, who wasted a great chance in the first half after sprinting past Alderweireld and rounding Lloris, was unable to punish Spurs.
Allan, who played under Ancelotti at Napoli, was calm and composed as Everton looked rejuvenated after a poor 2019-20.
Pickford was commanding and his saves to keep out Alli and Doherty were crucial, with Ancelotti delighted with a clean-sheet win against a side that finished 10 points and six places above his side last season.
Flat start by Spurs
Spurs boss Jose Mourinho was unhappy with Everton's goal, claiming the free-kick which led to Calvert-Lewin's winner was taken from the wrong place.
But over the 90 minutes, Spurs were distinctly second best and their lack of threat was summed up by the fact Harry Kane only touched the ball twice in Everton's penalty area.
Son Heung-min was Spurs' most threatening player, particularly in the first half when he set up chances for Kane and Alli.
Tottenham manager Jose Mourinho is happy the cameras documenting his team are gone
Kane looked a shadow of the player who finished last season with five goals in three games while Alli, despite forcing a fine save from Pickford, was replaced at half-time.
Mourinho said before the game that he wanted a new striker before the transfer window closes next month and this performance will reinforce his need to strengthen the squad.
New signing Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg also started but was unable to have the same impact as Everton's new additions.
Man of the match - James Rodriguez (Everton)
James Rodriguez inspired all around him as he sparkled in Everton's midfield, producing a classy performance which bodes well for the future
'We could have done more' - what they said
Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho: " I was expecting much more individually and collectively. It wasn't a very good performance, not a consistent performance, not a performance that leaves me with a very good feeling that all of my players gave everything.
"I go home with the feeling that some of the boys could do more."
Everton boss Carlo Ancelotti: "We are satisfied, I am satisfied, the performance of the team was brilliant.
"I am pleased we started the season well and we showed we can compete which is the most important message to take. We can compete with everyone if the spirit is good, if the attitude is good and the players showed this."
Head start - the stats
Only Chris Wood (14) and Harry Kane (12) have scored more headed goals in the Premier League since the beginning of the 2017-18 campaign than Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin (11).
Spurs boss Jose Mourinho has been defeated on the opening matchday of a league campaign for the first time in his managerial career.
Everton have secured their first Premier League win in London in nine games.
Only Pep Guardiola (4/4) can boast a better 100% winning ratio on the opening weekend of a Premier League season than Everton manager Carlo Ancelotti, who has won each of his three matches to kick-off an English top-flight season (also Frank Clark, 3).

bbc--2020-09-14--Coronavirus: Monoclonal antibodies to begin UK trial

A new antibody treatment is to be trialled on Covid-19 patients in UK hospitals .
Monoclonal antibodies , which are potent , laboratory-made antibodies , will be given to about 2,000 people to see if they are effective against coronavirus .
It forms part of the UK Recovery Trial , which found that a cheap steroid called dexamethasone could save lives .
The first patients will be given the new drugs in the coming weeks .
Prof Martin Landray from the University of Oxford , who is co-leading the Recovery Trial , said : “ This is the first type @ @ @ @ @ @ @ specific virus .
“ There are lots of good reasons for thinking it might well be effective - stopping the virus from reproducing , stopping the virus from causing damage , improving survival for patients .
“ We need to know , and the way to know is to do the trials that will tell us whether that hope turns into reality.
” Antibodies could be described as the `` warriors '' of the immune system .
When coronavirus infects your body , antibodies attach to the spikes of the virus , blocking @ @ @ @ @ @ @ we produce many different types of antibodies - the most potent are called neutralising antibodies .
So scientists `` sieve '' through them to find the one that ’ s best at sticking to the spike .
The chosen antibody is multiplied in the lab , and produced in huge quantities .
This is then given to patients , immediately boosting their immune response .
Which monoclonal antibodies are being used in the trial ?
The trial will test a mixture of two monoclonal antibodies made by the US biotech company Regeneron .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ virus at slightly different places .
So if the virus mutates , and the structure changes , at least one should still work .
Regeneron has already produced monoclonal antibodies that can treat Ebola .

Coronavirus: Monoclonal antibodies to begin UK trial Published 14 September 2020

A new antibody treatment is to be trialled on Covid-19 patients in UK hospitals.
Monoclonal antibodies, which are potent, laboratory-made antibodies, will be given to about 2,000 people to see if they are effective against coronavirus.
It forms part of the UK Recovery Trial, which found that a cheap steroid called dexamethasone could save lives.
The first patients will be given the new drugs in the coming weeks.
Prof Martin Landray from the University of Oxford, who is co-leading the Recovery Trial, said: “This is the first type of treatment that's targeted for this specific virus.
“There are lots of good reasons for thinking it might well be effective - stopping the virus from reproducing, stopping the virus from causing damage, improving survival for patients.
“We need to know, and the way to know is to do the trials that will tell us whether that hope turns into reality.”
What are monoclonal antibodies?
Antibodies could be described as the "warriors" of the immune system.
When coronavirus infects your body, antibodies attach to the spikes of the virus, blocking it from entering your cells.
But we produce many different types of antibodies - the most potent are called neutralising antibodies.
So scientists "sieve" through them to find the one that’s best at sticking to the spike.
The chosen antibody is multiplied in the lab, and produced in huge quantities.
This is then given to patients, immediately boosting their immune response.

Which monoclonal antibodies are being used in the trial?
The trial will test a mixture of two monoclonal antibodies made by the US biotech company Regeneron.
Both attach to the spike of the virus at slightly different places. So if the virus mutates, and the structure changes, at least one should still work.
Regeneron has already produced monoclonal antibodies that can treat Ebola.
Leah Lipsich, vice president of the company, said: "We're hoping that we can springboard from that very effective result against Ebola to something that's just as effective with Covid-19."
How will the trial work?
The UK Recovery Trial was set up at the start of the pandemic to identify treatments that could help people admitted to hospital with Covid-19.
It has already showed the steroid dexamethasone cuts the risk of death by a third for patients on ventilators, and by a fifth for those on oxygen.
Patients will start being given monoclonal antibodies in the next few weeks, and the results will be compared with other patients who have not been given the antibodies.
Prof Landray expects that about 2,000 people in each group will be needed to answer key questions.
He said: “We need to understand not only if these treatments work. We also need to understand in whom do they work, and in whom do they work best.
“Do they work in people who are older or younger? Do they work in people with more severe or milder disease? Do they work in people only when they're on ventilators or, possibly more likely, before they ever need ventilators?”
The results will also be compared with people receiving convalescent plasma, another treatment currently undergoing trials by the Recovery team. This is where plasma, the yellowish, liquid part of blood, is taken from people who’ve recovered from coronavirus and given to patients.
The Recovery Trial is also looking at azithromycin, a commonly used antibiotic, and tocilizumab, an anti-inflammatory treatment.
Which other diseases are monoclonal antibodies used for?
Monoclonal antibodies have been used clinically since the 1980s, and are used to treat many diseases including some forms of cancer.
But because they are a relatively new technology, they can be expensive.
The price for the Covid treatment has not yet been set.
But Prof Landray says if it works, fair access to all patients, internationally, is an issue that needs to be considered.
Do we still need treatments if we have a vaccine?
Some vaccines are entering the final phase of trials, but none are near being ready to roll out.
And with Covid cases rising, people are still being hospitalised and some are dying.
Apart from dexamethasone and another cheap steroid, hydrocortisone, there are no other clinically proven treatments for Covid-19, so finding new ways to help patients is vital.
But even once we do have a vaccine, treatments will continue to play a role.
Leah Lipsich, from Regeneron, said: “There will be populations - the immunocompromised, the elderly - who may not mount a sufficient immune response to a vaccine and will require treatment.
“And we feel very strongly that these highly potent neutralising antibodies really will help boost the immune response, and will always be needed even even when a vaccine is available.”


bbc--2020-09-14--Nvidia to buy UK chip designer ARM in $40bn deal

`` But with the expiry about to happen and obviously the Brexit negotiations under way it will be very interesting to see how this develops in the future . ''
Moreover , the two co-founders also claimed that once ARM was owned by an American firm , Washington could try to block Chinese companies from using its knowhow as part of a wider trade clash between the countries .
`` [ That ] means that if hundreds of UK companies that incorporate ARM 's [ technology ] in their products , want to sell it , and export it to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ which is a major market - the decision on whether they will be allowed to export it will be made in the White House and not in Downing Street . ''
`` The majority of our products are designed in the UK or outside the US , and the majority of our products do n't fall under much of the US export control set of rules . ''
Mr Huang added that ARM had `` some of the finest computer scientists in the world '' in Cambridge and he intended to both retain @ @ @ @ @ @ @ become Nvidia 's largest site in Europe .
Under the terms of the deal , Nvidia will pay Softbank $ 21.5bn in its own stock and $ 12bn in cash .
It will follow with up to a further $ 5bn in cash or stock if certain targets are met .
But experts say one risk Nvidia faces is that the takeover could encourage ARM 's wider client list to shift focus to a rival type of chip technology , which lags behind in terms of adoption but has the benefit of not @ @ @ @ @ @ @ a takeover by Nvidia , one of the many firms that licences ARM 's designs , appears to pose a threat to its business model - why will its hundreds of other customers now have faith that they will have equal access to its technology ?
In recent days leading figures in the Cambridge technology sector have lobbied Downing Street , calling for ministers to intervene to bring ARM back under UK ownership .
There have been signs that the government is considering a more active industrial policy .
Now , with Hermann @ @ @ @ @ @ @ will make Britain a US vassal state , the government is under pressure to step in and ensure that control over vital home-grown technology is not lost to a foreign power .

"[That] means that if hundreds of UK companies that incorporate ARM's [technology] in their products, want to sell it, and export it to anywhere in the world including China - which is a major market - the decision on whether they will be allowed to export it will be made in the White House and not in Downing Street."


bbc--2020-09-14--Fifth UK ex-PM speaks out against post-Brexit bill

David Cameron has become the fifth former prime minister to criticise a new bill attempting to override the Brexit withdrawal agreement .
The Internal Market Bill will come before MPs later , with the government calling it an `` insurance policy '' .
Mr Cameron said he had `` misgivings '' over it and breaking an international treaty should be the `` final resort '' .
Former Tory PMs Theresa May and Sir John Major , and Labour 's Tony Blair and Gordon Brown have condemned the plan .
He echoed comments made by Justice Secretary Robert Buckland on Sunday @ @ @ @ @ @ @ just in case the UK and EU do not agree a post-Brexit trade deal .
Boris Johnson was expected to speak to reporters at an event later , but No 10 confirmed it had been cancelled due to urgent parliamentary business .
The government is expected to win a vote in the Commons later on the next stage of the bill - which should take place around 22:00 BST ( 21:00 GMT ) - but it is also expected to face more difficulties in later stages , especially when the legislation heads for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ General Geoffrey Cox has said he will vote against it , accusing Mr Johnson of doing `` unconscionable '' damage to Britain 's international reputation .
A senior government source told the BBC `` all options are on the table '' in terms of possible action against Tory MPs who do not support the bill .
The PM 's special envoy for Freedom of Religion or Belief , Tory MP Rehman Chishti , has resigned over the proposed law , saying : `` I have always acted in a manner which respects the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ voting for this bill as it currently stands would be contrary to the values I hold dearest . ''
The UK left the EU on 31 January , having negotiated and signed the withdrawal agreement with the bloc .
The two sides are now in the closing weeks of negotiations for a post-Brexit trade deal before the transition period ends on 31 December - with informal talks taking place in Brussels this week .
A key part of the withdrawal agreement - which is now an international treaty - was the Northern Ireland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ border returning to the island of Ireland .
The Internal Market Bill proposed by the government would override that part of that agreement when it came to goods and would allow the UK to modify or re-interpret `` state aid '' rules on subsidies for firms in Northern Ireland , in the event of the two sides not agreeing a future trade deal .
Last week , Northern Ireland Secretary Brandon Lewis said the bill would `` break international law '' in a `` specific and limited way '' , leading to swathes @ @ @ @ @ @ @ political spectrum .
Here we go again ... a Brexit deadline looms , there 's a whole lot of noise about it in Westminster , and the UK and the EU ca n't agree .
And yes , yet again , there is a swirling soup of jargon every other sentence .
Take a few steps back though , and here is what this all amounts to - how the UK will trade with its nearest neighbours from January next year onwards and how the different parts of the UK will trade with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and matters politically too .
The Brexit process has long exposed the tensions between the UK and Brussels , but do n't underestimate the tensions it places on the UK as well .
Those in Scotland , Northern Ireland and Wales who have long argued to be unshackled from London , as they see it , argue Brexit is the ultimate case study to illustrate their argument .
And so the government at Westminster 's delicate task is to extricate the UK from one union , the EU , while holding together another @ @ @ @ @ @ @ these rows have that central aim at their core .
Mr Cameron - who called the EU referendum when he was PM - said he had `` misgivings about what is being proposed '' .
Speaking to reporters , he said : `` Passing an act of Parliament and then going on to break an international treaty obligation is the very , very last thing you should contemplate .
It should be the absolute final resort . ''
Mr Cameron said the `` bigger picture '' was about trying to get a trade @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government to `` keep that context [ and ] that big prize in mind . ''
The comments follow stronger criticism by the four other surviving former prime ministers of the UK .
Mrs May , who still sits as an MP in the Commons , said breaking international law would damage `` trust '' in the UK , while Mr Brown said it would be akin to `` self-harm '' for the country .
Sir John and Mr Blair - who were both in office during key periods of the Northern Ireland @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in the Sunday Times accusing Mr Johnson of `` embarrassing '' the UK and urging MPs to reject the `` shameful '' attempt to override parts of the withdrawal agreement .
Mr Malthouse defended the bill , saying it `` solves the problem that we 're faced with '' over the future of trade with the EU .
He told BBC Breakfast : `` What we 've done is to say transparently that this is a situation which we think may occur - certainly that 's what 's being intimated from the EU @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to solve so here 's a bill that solves it .
`` In the end those people that oppose this bill have to tell us what the resolution is . ''
On Sunday , Justice Secretary Mr Buckland told the BBC he hoped powers being sought by ministers would never be needed , and that he would resign if the UK ended up breaking international law `` in a way I find unacceptable '' .
But Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer accused government ministers of handing out `` misinformation '' over the weekend @ @ @ @ @ @ @ were pursuing the new bill .
He told LBC : `` [ Mr Johnson ] is making a mistake reneging on a treaty - that will have reputational damage for the UK .
`` I would say to the prime minister , look go away , go back to the drawing board , drop these problems , do n't act in this reckless and wrong way and we 'll look again at the legislation . ''
The bill has split opinion on the Tory backbenches .
MP Sir Desmond Swayne said he would @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government for preparing in case no trade deal is agreed by the end of the year .
He told BBC News : `` If the government did n't take precautions against that possibility , it would be utterly negligent .
It is right it arm itself with the powers just in case . ''
But his colleague , and chair of the Justice Select Committee , Sir Bob Neill , said the government and its supporters needed to `` calm the language '' .
He said there was already a mechanism for addressing @ @ @ @ @ @ @ was willing to `` meet them half-way '' with an amendment to the bill - only allowing the elements that would break international law to be used if Parliament signs it off .
• THE RULE OF SIX : What 's in the small print ?
• UNWIND WITH THE MINDFUL MIX : Switch off and escape

He said there was already a mechanism for addressing the government's concerns, but he was willing to "meet them half-way" with an amendment to the bill - only allowing the elements that would break international law to be used if Parliament signs it off.


bbc--2020-09-14--Warren Harding: Grandson of former US president asks to exhume his remains

The grandson of former US President Warren G Harding has launched a legal bid to have the Republican 's remains exhumed to confirm they are related .
James Blaesing told a court he wants to establish his ancestry with `` scientific certainty '' .
But other members of Harding 's family have opposed the request , filed in May .
They say they have accepted DNA evidence that Mr Blaesing 's mother , Elizabeth Ann Blaesing , was the daughter of Harding and Nan Britton .
Harding , the 29th president of the US , had an extramarital affair with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ between 1921 and 1923 .
The affair only came to light after Harding died of a heart attack while still in office in 1923 .
Britton revealed their relationship in a 1927 book , The President 's Daughter , but never sought DNA evidence confirming Harding 's paternity of the child .
Harding had no other children .
Then in 2015 , genetic testing confirmed a match between Mr Blaesing 's DNA and that of two Harding descendants .
Mr Blaesing 's biological link to Harding was officially declared by AncestryDNA , a @ @ @ @ @ @ @ grievances have surfaced ahead of the 100-year anniversary of Harding 's 1920 election as president .
Harding 's benefactors are preparing to mark the occasion with site upgrades and a new presidential centre in Marion , the Ohio city near which he was born in 1865 .
But Mr Blaesing said he and his mother have not received the recognition they deserve in the new museum .
`` I did the test and we brought it to the public in 2015 .
It 's now 2020 and no one has asked me one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Blaesing said he deserves to `` have his story , his mother 's story and his grandmother 's story included within the hallowed halls and museums in this town '' .
He said he hoped to change that by providing further DNA evidence of his biological link to Harding .
Mr Blaesing 's lawsuit to exhume Harding 's remains from his presidential memorial in Marion has been challenged by another branch of the family .
`` Sadly , widespread , public recognition and acceptance by the descendants , historians and biographers ( and @ @ @ @ @ @ @ is President Harding 's grandson is not enough for him , '' relatives said in a court filing .
Ohio History Connection , which manages the Harding home and memorial , told the Associated Press news agency that it takes no position on the family dispute .
It did , however , tell the court to consider a host of issues before disrupting the Harding Memorial 's sealed sarcophagus .
The non-profit organisation said it accepted the 2015 DNA results `` as fact '' and was planning to include a section of the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .

Dominic Thiem has become Austria's second Grand Slam champion, following Thomas Muster's triumph at the 1995 French Open
US Open champion Dominic Thiem says his "whole life" has been dedicated to winning his maiden Grand Slam title.
Austrian second seed Thiem fought back from two sets down to beat Germany's Alexander Zverev in Sunday's final.
Thiem, 27, overcame a nervous start - and being unable to serve out victory in a tense deciding set - to win 2-6 4-6 6-4 6-3 7-6 (8-6) in New York.
