The event, due to be attended by Barack Obama and other world leaders, is expected to draw thousands of protesters to Docklands, London. The findings are likely to anger demonstrators, after the news that thousands of riot police will be deployed in response.The report says: Whilst we recognise police officers should not be placed at risk of serious injury, the deployment of riot police can unnecessarily raise the temperature at protests. It adds that the experience of protests in Northern Ireland showed the use of riot police was unnecessary.Relations between police and protesters have broken down at a number of recent high-profile demonstrations, including last year s Climate Camp at Kingsnorth in Kent, where a deterioration in communication between the police and 3,000 protesters resulted in the arrest of 1

Biologists claim to have discovered two new species of lobsters, along with six others which are recorded for the first time in Austral
yeezy ian waters. HT Image An international team, led by Dr Jo Taylor of Museum Victoria in Australia, has documented the lobster species of the Munidopsis -- one of the most diverse in squat lobsters. They have named one of the new species, Munidopsis comarge. Species of the genus Munidopsis are typical animals of the deep sea. The genus is one of the most diverse and species-rich of all the squat lobsters, including more than 225 species from oceans worldwide, say the biologists. Munidopsis species are commonly distributed from the lower continental shelf, usually deeper than 500 m, and around 20 per cent of species are known to occur on the abyssal plain at depths greater than 3000 m. One has even been recorded from the wreck of the Titanic. This new species publication coincides w

In times of tragedy and trauma, we need compassion to get us through. But what do we mean by compassion It is different from kindness and empathy, although these are ways of being compassionate. Our clinical work has led us to define compassion as the motivation to engage with distress and suffering and work to find ways to alleviate and prevent it.So, to build a more compassionate mind, we need first to build enough courage to engage with pain and suffering and, second, commit to learning how best to help ourselves deal with this, and then do it.There is an extraordinary level of suffering all around us, not just because of the virus, but also because of the solutions we are taking to prevent its spread: lockdown, school closures and closures of many businesses. These have led to job losses, isolation, increases in family stress and rising rates of domestic violence. Such changes seriously affect us personally and socially. The distress of others affects us, too. Being compassionate means acknowledging that we are not alone, but instead are united with others who are also facing or trying to work with these difficulties.Self-compassion requires us to keep in mind that the sit
