FRIDAY THE 13

Getting the creatures to hop on to the scales sometimes involves some clever tactics, such as allowing the northern rockhopper penguins to p-p-p-pick up a fishy breakfast, or giving the pygmy hippo a dab of of his favourite marmite. A group of three adult lions and seven youngsters, the pride of Whipsnade Zoo, waited in line for the scales. Ms Forsyth said: "Obviously, trying to get seven cubs to stand on weighing scales is challenging, but it allows us to monitor their growth. "At the age they are at, everything's exciting so it's been very challenging for the keepers to get them to stay put, but they are working on it and they will get there." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckge9yrllyzo

This was the mantra behind the scenes at Newcastle United long before a draining window finally shut. And with good reason. It was always going to be a breathless finale and so it proved as Newcastle sold Alexander Isak to Liverpool for a British record £125m but brought in Yoane Wissa in a £55m deal from Brentford. There is relief on Tyneside that Newcastle have signed a proven Premier League forward in Wissa to ease the burden on record signing Nick Woltemade, who has never played for a club outside Germany. But, after holding firm for so long, Newcastle have also lost one of the best strikers in the world to the champions on deadline day. That felt like an unimaginable prospect to outsiders when Isak was bouncing up and down in a celebratory huddle as the Champions League anthem played out at St James' Park after Newcastle secured qualification on the final day of last season. But this has been a summer like no other in the club's history. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cjdy7mxk5lxo

A council has released a confidential report revealing that a former leisure contractor still owed thousands of pounds - months after its contract ended in January 2024. Bedford Borough Council had refused a Freedom of Information request by the Local Democracy Reporting Service for the information. Following a challenge to the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) the report was made public which showed Fusion Lifestyle Ltd had unpaid management fees of £166,038. Bedford Borough Council said the debts have now been repaid in full. Fusion Lifestyle Ltd has been approached for comment. The ICO said the council failed to demonstrate a valid reason for withholding the information and said on 16 July 2025 that it should be disclosed within 30 calendar days. The report was shared on day 29. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ce3jky23937o

the Chinese leader is having his moment in the spotlight. The SCO summit in Tianjin has allowed him to project power and offer a vision of a new world order which he hopes will challenge the United States. Now attention turns to the parade in Beijing, which will showcase his country's growing ability to rival the US in any conflict. The leaders of Iran, Malaysia, Myanmar, Mongolia, Zimbabwe and central Asian countries will witness the precise troop formations and get a glimpse of what authorities say will be new hypersonic weapons and unmanned underwater drones. The only Western leaders on the guest list are from Serbia and Slovakia. Kim Jong Un is a surprise addition - his attendance was only announced at the end of last week - and his armoured train and usual motorcade flanked by bodyguards will add to the spectacle. Xi is expected to have both Kim and Putin by his side which will inevitably lead to Western headlines or analysts describing them as the "axis of upheaval". While the parade is a show of China's strength and Xi's influence as a world leader, there is also a clear domestic message: pride and patriotism. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn020wrnw78o

Tottenham Hotspur made it back-to-back Premier League victories under new manager Thomas Frank by stunning Manchester City once again at the Etihad Stadium. Spurs came here last November and inflicted a 4-0 humbling of City in a scintillating performance and went home once more with all three points courtesy of a resolute defensive display. They started slowly as Omar Marmoush latched onto Pedro Porro's loose header and squeezed a shot narrowly wide of the far post before seeing a thunderous strike from range pushed away by Guglielmo Vicario. The Egyptian was lively early on and forced another excellent save from the Spurs goalkeeper after being played through by Erling Haaland. With their first real threat of the game, Spurs took the lead courtesy of a lightning breakaway as Richarlison's low cross was converted by Brennan Johnson. The goal was initially ruled out for offside, but overturned following a review by the video assistant referee. With seven minutes added on in the first half because of an injury to City left-back Rayan Ait-Nouri, Spurs doubled their lead through Joao Palhinha smashing in after a loose pass from James Trafford inside his own area. It capped a difficult few minutes for the City keeper who could have been dismissed for a collision on the edge of the box with Mohammed Kudus. Haaland should have pulled one back before the break but headed over from close range and the home side were left frustrated in the second period as Tottenham made it consecutive clean sheets so far this season. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/live/cd0d3zjj8g3t

For years, visitors to San Francisco have been struck by the number of rough sleepers and tent encampments on sidewalks. But one year into a more aggressive crackdown, many streets look very different. Now President Donald Trump - who has mocked the city for its problems - is taking a page out of San Francisco's playbook. Starting last week, federal agents have been clearing out homeless encampments in the nation's capital, making Washington DC the latest city to levy penalties on people for sleeping rough. The move to criminalise homeless camping began last summer, following a landmark US Supreme Court ruling that found it was constitutional to issue citations to homeless people and arrest them, even in the absence of shelter. Soon, cities and counties across the country were issuing citations. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom - a frequent Trump foil and former San Francisco mayor - quickly made clearing encampments a priority, paving the way for San Francisco's dramatic transformation. Yet while local businesses and some residents say this has helped remove a blight on what's considered one of the country's most beautiful cities, others question how effective it has really been in solving the issue. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c2kz4d0vwlzo

It's all been about the natural world this week, with animals from current times and ancient history. There's a new resident at Longleat, and an extensive dig at Cerney Wick has come to an end. Wiltshire's farmers have been in the focus this week as part of a national campaign to tell the stories of rural life. All this is mixed in with the usual scenes of beautiful landscapes from across the county. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c98l4q475nlo

Manchester United have completed the signing of RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko in a move worth £73.7m. The deal for the Slovenia international, who has joined on a five-year contract, includes a guaranteed payment of £66.3m, with the remainder in add-ons. He is United's third major signing in attack following the arrivals of Matheus Cunha for £62.5m and Bryan Mbeumo for £65m with £6m in add-ons, with the trio presented to the club's fans prior to Saturday's pre-season home game against Fiorentina. Sesko, 22, was also a target for Newcastle United but has chosen to join Ruben Amorim's side. United finished 15th in the Premier League last season, while the Magpies were fifth and qualified for the Champions League in a campaign in which they also won the EFL Cup. "The history of Manchester United is obviously very special but what really excites me is the future," said Sesko. "When we discussed the project, it was clear that everything is in place for this team to continue to grow and compete for the biggest trophies again soon. "From the moment that I arrived, I could feel the positive energy and family environment that the club has created. It is clearly the perfect place to reach my maximum level and fulfil all of my ambitions. "I cannot wait to start learning from Ruben and connecting with my team-mates to achieve the success that we all know we are capable of together." https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c39dx8mjd39o

Disgraced former congressman George Santos has reported to prison to begin a more than seven-year sentence for wire fraud, identity theft and other charges. The federal Bureau of Prisons confirmed to the BBC on Friday that Santos was in custody at the Federal Correctional Institution in Fairton, New Jersey. The 37-year-old pleaded guilty to federal charges in New York court last year. It marked the downfall of the novice New York politician, who was expelled from Congress after the fraud case alleged that he lied about his background and misused campaign funds to finance a luxury lifestyle. In a post on X before he reported to prison, Santos said his "rhinestones are packed". "I may be leaving the stage (for now), but trust me legends never truly exit," he wrote. The federal government alleged Santos laundered campaign funds to pay for his personal expenses, illegally claimed unemployment benefits while he was employed and lied to the Federal Election Commission (FEC). Prosecutors said he charged more than $44,000 (£32,000) to his campaign over a period of months using credit cards belonging to contributors who were unaware they were being defrauded. In court last year, Santos admitted to theft and applying for unemployment benefits that he was not entitled to receive. He was also ordered to pay at least $374,000 in restitution. After his sentencing in April, Santos attempted to raise money on Cameo, a platform where people can purchase personalised videos from celebrities. Santos gained attention when he defeated a Democratic incumbent in 2022, flipping a district that encompasses parts of New York's Long Island and Queens to the Republicans. The controversy began when the New York Times published a story that year revealing Santos - who had no background in politics - had lied about his CV, including having a university degree and working for Citigroup and Goldman Sachs. It was not long before a series of new lies came to light, including that he falsely claimed his mother survived the 11 September terrorist attacks. Shortly after, local and federal officials launched investigations into the congressman. Santos was eventually charged with 23 federal felony crimes and in 2023 he became the first member of Congress to be expelled in more than 20 years, and only the sixth in history. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c5ykynzked7o
