thetelegraph--2020-01-07--Ben Stokes the hero again as England secure thrilling last-gasp victory to level South Africa series

Hello and welcome to what looks a fascinating culmination to this second Test match .
Just think , as our cricket correspondent Scyld Berry points out in his close of play piece from yesterday , this would have ended in a draw if this form of the game moves from five to four days : Before the scheduled close on day four , England ’ s players would have shaken hands with South Africa ’ s stubborn batsmen - if the game ’ s administrators had been allowed to impose their set of values , which are primarily financial .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ match will see drama of a kind that no other format in cricket - and no other sport - can offer .
The task is daunting for both sides .
For South Africa , the goal is to bat out an entire fifth day of a Test , having already repelled England for 56 overs .
The loss of Zubayr Hamza just before close yesterday was a blow , but they still have Pieter Malan at the crease unbeaten on 63 .
And what a find he looks .
Malan is one of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ cap and leaves you wondering how he reached the age of 30 and played 148 first-class matches before it happened .
His technique and temperament look spot on for this level of cricket .
Yet he has a huge job if South Africa are to survive the day with eight wickets to play with .
From an England perspective , the sun is shining , the pitch has flattened out and the bowlers will have woken this morning fully aware of the grueling task ahead of them .
Taking eight wickets will be @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , should n't they ?
They should be able to bowl a side out in almost 150 overs .
The assumption is they have two ways of doing so .
If the old ball starts reversing then James Anderson and Stuart Broad 's ears will prick up and wickets could start tumbling .
Then there is spin .
Dom Bess and perhaps Joe Denly will be given plenty of overs to bowl today .
How they fare could well determine the course of the match .
England start the day as favourites , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Even if the maths seems plausible , a South Africa win looks highly unlikely .
But hey , day five of a Test match with all three results still in play .
Excellent .

thetelegraph--2020-01-07--Henman and Hewitt to resume rivalry as captains at ATP Cup quarter-final

Most tennis fans will remember the Tim Henman-Lleyton Hewitt rivalry of the early 21st century , which peaked in the Wimbledon semi-final of 2002 .
The match was a heart-breaking affair for home hopes , as well as a tipping point in the gradual eclipse of serve-volleyers by baseline scrappers .
On Thursday , Henman and Hewitt will resume that rivalry – but by proxy this time , as Great Britain and Australia meet under their respective captaincies in the quarter-final of the ATP Cup .
The famous Henman fist-pump was much in evidence on Tuesday as Great Britain overcame @ @ @ @ @ @ @ end of the day ’ s play – which finished at the matchsticks-under-eyelids time of 12.15am – they had been confirmed as winners of Group C , and thus joined Australia , Serbia and Russia in the knockout stages .
To come through the group was a fine achievement – especially after the disappointment of the first night , when Grigor Dimitrov ’ s Bulgarian team had inflicted the narrowest and most agonising of defeats at 2.47am .
But life is not going to get any easier .
Australia have so far played @ @ @ @ @ @ @ three dangerous teams in Germany , Canada and Greece .
They have not lost a single one .

Wednesday morning brought a reminder of the precarious nature of life in Australia this summer. A westerly wind change blew a fresh dose of smoke across Sydney, dropping the air-quality index to hazardous levels and threatening the progress of the ATP Cup.
The last day of group matches in Sydney progressed on time anyway, at 10am. A spokesman for the ATP said that "We are monitoring the situation and it is safe to start at 10 for players fans and staff."
Still, there will be concerns about player health if the smoke haze continues. A forecast suggested that another wind change on Wednesday evening would bring fresher air. Until then, the players will be wishing that the Ken Rosewall Arena had a full roof and air-conditioning system rather than a canopy that is open at the sides.
The forecast change of weather – which was expected to arrive at around 8pm – should be welcome for the British team, who managed to squeak out of Group C as winners on Tuesday. Their reward will be a quarter-final against hosts Australia, who have been the form team of the competition to date.

Iran warns it will 'set ablaze to place America loves' referring to Israel as dozens die in stampede at Soleimani funeral

The leader of Iran 's powerful Revolutionary Guards threatened to “ set ablaze ” places America loves in an apparent reference to Israel on Tuesday , as a stampede at the funeral of one of its slain generals left dozens dead .
Hossein Salami made the pledge before a crowd of thousands gathered in a central square in Kerman , the hometown of the slain general Qassem Soleimani , as they prepared to bury him .
Overcrowding in the square left at least 32 dead and more than 190 injured , forcing authorities to postpone the official ceremony .
A @ @ @ @ @ @ @ one million people .
`` We will take revenge .
We will set ablaze a place they like , and they well know where it is , '' Salami said , drawing the cries of `` Death to Israel ! ''
Israel is a longtime regional foe of Iran and under US President Donald Trump the two countries have drawn considerably closer .
Tehran has been threatening revenge against the US and its allies since an American drone strike killed Soleimani , a celebrated commander who for two decades led the Quds Force @ @ @ @ @ @ @ International Airport on Friday .
Benyamin Netanyahu , Israel ’ s prime minister , has been notably quiet since the strike , attempting to distance himself from the US move .

At least 60 people died and 200 were injured in a stampede yesterday during the funeral for Qassim Soleimani, the Iranian general killed by the US.
Tens of thousands had gathered in a central square in Kerman, the home town of the commander, as they prepared for his burial. Witnesses say mourners were violently pushed back from the cortege as the coffin passed, with crowds trampling on men, women and children.
Video from the scene showed bodies covered in coats as paramedics worked on the wounded. Funeral processions in cities in Iraq and Iran over three days have been an unprecedented honour for Soleimani, who is viewed by many Iranians as a national hero for heading the Guard’s elite Quds Force. A procession in Tehran on Monday drew more than a million people.
Speaking to those gathered yesterday, Hossein Salami, head of Iran’s Revolutionary Guard, vowed to avenge the killing. Soleimani was now more powerful in death than in life, he said.
“We will take revenge. We will set ablaze a place they like and they well know where it is,” he declared, prompting cries of “Death to Israel”.

LuluPet’s AI Smart Cat Litter Box, which is an honouree in CES 2020’s innovation award, is touted to have built-in stool and urine image recognition and "excretory behavioral algorithms". Which is not a phrase you might have ever expected to read.
The headless kitten
And it seems, this year, CES just can't get enough of kittens. Yukai Engineering unveiled the prototype for its headless robotic kitten at the event, something which may sound unbelievably creepy but, oddly enough, will be marketed to seniors in nursing homes. It comes a few years after a larger version was released, but, according to the company, people wanted to be able to take their devices out and about. The Petit Qoobo is small enough to fit in a bag.
What's the appeal, you may ask? Apparently its "comforting communication warms your heart the way animals do".
Samsung rotating TV
Televisions are not usually the strangest thing to see on the CES floor, but how about one that can automatically spin around to display vertically?
Samsung’s Sero TV is already available in Korea, designed to allow viewers to cast vertical video such as Instagram and TikTok from their phones to the biggest screen in the house. In theory, a telly that’s moving with the times… but hopefully one that isn’t going to fall off.

Australian firefighters are battling to get the upper hand against colossal fires across three states before another heatwave hits later this week.
On Tuesday, authorities in Victoria reported that the number of individual blazes in the state was down to 14, but largely because many smaller blazes had combined with others.
In New South Wales, firefighters fought desperately to capitalise on cooler weather, but the light rain did little to suppress the 130 blazes burning in the state, and posed problems for emergency workers trying to manoeuvre heavy equipment in slippery conditions.
The NSW Rural Fire Service warned that a Very High Fire Danger rating would be in place in three regions on Wednesday, and High Danger in 10 others, out of a total of 21 regions in the state.
While the Australian navy continued to assist in evacuations and supply runs, the insurance industry announced that there have already been $700,000,000 (£367,000,000) in damages claims from the fires.

Ikea has agreed to pay a family $46m (£35m) in the biggest wrongful death settlement in US history after a child was killed by falling drawers.
Jozef Dudek, 2, was suffocated in May 2017 after the company’s Malm drawers fell over at the family’s home in California. The drawers had been recalled a year earlier over safety concerns after three other children were killed.
According to lawyers, the payout is the largest wrongful death settlement in US history.
Jozef’s parents, Joleen and Craig Dudek, said they were “devastated” by their son’s death.
"We never thought that a two-year-old could cause a dresser just 30 inches (76cm) high to topple over and suffocate him," they said. "It was only later that we learned that [it] was unstable by design."
"We are telling our story because we do not want this to happen to another family.”
The couple are reportedly set to donate $1m of the settlement to groups working to protect children from dangerous products.

Cameron Norrie, Dan Evans and the doubles pairing of Jamie Murray and Joe Salisbury all delivered ferociously focused performances, drawing motivation from the knowledge that every game could be vital in the hunt for the next round.
The outcome was a 3-0 victory in which Great Britain won all six sets. The highlight was Dan Evans’s 6-2, 6-2 defeat of Moldovan No 1 Radu Albot, a quality player who stands just inside the world’s top 50.

With the Premier League season beyond the halfway mark, only Liverpool, Leicester, Sheffield United, Crystal Palace and Wolves can feel truly satisfied with their season so far. That means that, for plenty of clubs, summer transfer money was spent to little effect.
Here we run the rule over ten players who have failed to live up to their billing or not had the desired impact at their new club.
Joao Cancelo (Manchester City)
Cancelo is yet to displace Kyle Walker as Manchester City's first-choice right back and has been nothing more than a backup option despite being a £27.5 million (plus Danilo) buy from Juventus.
His start on New Year's Day against Everton was Cancelo's first since City's 2-1 win over Chelsea on November 23, and there are already reports of a premature departure in January. Given Guardiola's sceptical view of Benjamin Mendy's defensive reliability it is surprising that Cancelo has not been given a chance in City's troublesome left-back berth. The trajectory of Fabinho's Liverpool career gives Cancelo, and other imports on this list, hope that a lack of opportunity is merely an adaptation process.
Joelinton (Newcastle United)
If the jury was out during the season's early months, the sound of Newcastle supporters chanting "you're not fit to wear the shirt" at their £40 million summer signing as he toiled against Rochdale finally delivered the harshest of verdicts.

In the age of Greta, many British holidaymakers – and even some travel journalists – are pledging to swap flying for more environmentally-friendly modes of transport.
Suggest trains as an alternative to planes, however, and most people will usually complain about costs. It’s cheaper to fly, they claim, thanks to low-cost airlines and pricey rail fares. Yes, it can be – but book in advance and you’ll usually find a good deal. And now is the time to start looking. Eurostar has just launched its annual January sale, offering fares from London to Europe for as little as £58 return.
The cut-price fares are available to book from today until January 20, and are valid for travel from January 21 until the end of March for journeys to Paris, Brussels, Lille, Calais, Rotterdam and Amsterdam, or from May 22 until September 7 for trips to Lyon, Avignon and Marseille.

For journeys to Rotterdam and Amsterdam, the cheapest return fares cost £86.50.

Romanian orphans rescued by British families in the 1990s were left seriously brain damaged by their harrowing early lives, researchers have found for the first time.
Between 600 and 700 children were brought to the UK after the horror of conditions in orphanages was exposed following the collapse of communism at the end of the 1980s.
Many of the youngsters, who are now in their 20s, have suffered long-lasting psychological scars and mental illness associated with early neglect, deprivation and malnourishment.
But new research by King’s College London has found that despite being welcomed into loving homes, they have suffered lasting physical damage, with the average child having a brain which is 8.6 per cent smaller than similar British children.
Each additional month in an orphanage was associated with a 0.27 per cent reduction in total brain volume and increased the risk of having a lower IQ and symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
“It’s essential to recognise that these young people have nearly always received great care in loving adoptive families since they left the institutions,” said Professor Edmund Sonuga-Barke from the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN), at King’s.
“However, despite a lot of positive experiences and achievements there remain some deep-seated effects of deprivation on these young adults.”

thetelegraph--2020-01-07--Nine of the best vegan protein powders

Nine of the best vegan protein powders

Less active individuals should also consider a protein powder .
`` Protein is important for everyone , whether active or not .
It helps the body grow , repair and maintain muscle tissue .
Without muscle tissue we lose strength , bone health declines and our metabolic rate reduces , '' says Matt Roberts , a personal trainer whose Mayfair gym makes its own protein-packed vegan smoothies and lunches .
When should I take my protein shake ?
While it seems that straight after a workout session is best , it can still be effective to take your protein shake @ @ @ @ @ @ @ hours afterwards .
`` The hour after training is thought to be the best time , '' says Roberts .
`` This is because the muscles are in their most absorptive phase and any protein consumed will be best absorbed into muscle fibres , helping recovery and growth . ''
To Dr Collins , there is n't such a huge rush .
`` You 've got plenty of time and opportunity from when you stop to when you next exercise to meet the requirement .
There 's no urgency to get it before @ @ @ @ @ @ @ As long as you 're getting it one or two hours after the gym that 's generally OK , '' counters Hamilton .
`` Because we eat protein so often we 're constantly building and breaking it down .
The actual timing is not as clear as it used to be . ''

To decide on the best protein powder for you, whether that be regular, whey protein powder, or vegan protein powder, it helps to ask: what are protein powders for? Protein is a nutrient needed all over the body to help build, repair and maintain tissue. It is made up of chains of amino acids, nine of which are termed ‘essential’ since your body can’t make them itself.
For a healthy body, the recommended nutrient intake (RNI) is 0.75g of protein per kg of bodyweight per day. If you don’t typically eat many animal-based sources, protein powders can help you hit that target. And they’re not only for people who go to the gym.
We tested eight of the top protein powders on the market, including whey and vegan options. You can read our full reviews below, as well as answers to frequently asked questions like which is the healthiest, the best for weight loss, and the best for building muscle. If you're in a hurry, here are our top five:
Which is the best protein powder?
Who should take protein powders?
“Protein supplements are used by all sorts of performers and athletes from football, tennis and golf players to stage performers and dancers,” says Shane Collins, founder of Circuit Society gym and co-founder of NUA Health supplements. “But we all cause damage to our muscles every day just by walking around and lifting things, and certainly when we train. Protein helps repair that damage.”
In other words, they’re for everyone. Choosing the right one for you comes down to what it’s made from. With the exception of vegan protein powders, most are made from whey (a by-product of cheese production), which comes in three different forms.
Whey concentrate is the most common form and is often the cheapest, according to Rachel Butcher, head nutritionist at Natural Fitness Food. “It typically has low fat and cholesterol content but the protein levels can vary from 40 to 90% depending on the brand,” she says. “If your goal is to build muscle, a whey concentrate with a higher protein content is probably the best to go for.”
Whey isolate is more refined, and therefore more expensive. “Whey isolate is refined in a process that will remove the fat and the lactose from the compound,” says Butcher. “That makes it one of the leanest options, meaning it usually comprises of upwards of 90% protein content.”
Whey hydrolysate is whey protein that’s been put through hydrolysis. “That is, the addition of water to allow for the protein to be broken down into its smaller building blocks,” Butcher explains. “This means it can be absorbed by the body much faster and at higher rates.” Needless to say, it’s on the costlier end of the scale.
Vegan protein powders are the fourth option. Pea, hemp and soy are popular sources but there are plenty of others. “What’s key here isn’t just looking at the protein content, but the quality,” says Butcher. “You can tell that by looking at its essential amino acids – it’s ‘complete’ if it contains all nine. To achieve this, you’ll want a blend of at least two protein sources.”

The standard Speed Zone we tested is aimed mainly at piste skiing but still has a drifty, freeride feel. Dynastar has softened the flex at the tip and tail to make it easier to turn, and this softer flex and slight tip rocker helps in variable snow off piste. A great ski for intermediate to advanced skiers wanting easy handling in short to medium turns on piste and some fun off the sides. If you ski hard and fast then opt for the stiffer Pro version.
+ Playful and fun in variable snow, easy to handle at lower speeds.
