FILE - In this Thursday, Feb. 19, 2008 file photo, Pino Daniele Performs during the "Festival di Sanremo" Italian song contest, in San Remo, Italy. inger, songwriter and guitarist Pino Daniele, whose fusion of blues and jazz was greatly inspired by the beauty and ugliness of his native Naples, has died. He was 59. Carlo Saitto, an official at Sant'Eugenio hospital in Rome, told Italian state TV that Daniele died Sunday, Jan. 4, 2015, night soon after arriving with grave cardiac and respiratory problems. Daniele, with a history of heart trouble, had given a New Year's concert in Italy last week. The musician was so identified with Naples that the city's mayor ordered flags flown at half-mast. Daniele's style was constantly evolving, as he experimented with blues and jazz. His voice, sexy, bordering on hoarse, was expressive, like his fellow Neapolitans. Some of his songs mixed Neapolitan dialect with Italian. He played with jazz stars like Wayne Shorter.

Age of stars is pinned to their spin: World News
Age of stars is pinned to their spin: World News
  • Order:
  • Duration: 4:43
  • Updated: 06 Jan 2015
Age of stars is pinned to their spin. Astronomers have proved that they can accurately tell the age of a star from how fast it is spinning. We know that stars slow down over time, but until recently there was little data to support exact calculations. For the first time, a US team has now measured the spin speed of stars that are more than one billion years old - and it matches what they predicted. The finding resolves a long-standing challenge, allowing astronomers to estimate a star's age to within 10%. The work was presented in Seattle at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society and also appears in the journal Nature. Closing a gap Establishing the age of stars is a central question in astronomy - much like dating fossils is crucial to studying evolution. This method applies to "cool stars" - suns about the size of our own, or smaller. These are the most common stars in our galaxy and they also last for a long time. "They act as lamp posts, lighting up even the oldest parts of our galaxy," said senior author Dr Soren Meibom from the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Cool stars also host the vast majority of earth-like planets that we have spotted in the distance. Most properties of a star like ours - like its size, mass, brightness and temperature - stay about the same throughout most of its life. This makes figuring out a star's age decidedly tricky. The solution of measuring spin was first proposed in the 1970s and was dubbed "gyrochronology" in 2003. "A cool star spins very fast when it's young, but just like a top on a table it gets slower and slower as the star grows older," Dr Meibom said. But it is difficult to see a star spinning. Astronomers use sun spots, travelling across the surface, and these only dim its brightness by much less than 1%. Old stars are particularly problematic, because they have fewer and smaller spots. Dr Meibom's team used images from the very sensitive Kepler space telescope, which has been trailing Earth around the Sun since 2009. They managed to measure spin speeds for 30 stars in a specific cluster known to be 2.5 billion years old. This cluster, known as NGC 6819, plugs what Dr Meibom called a "four-billion-year gap" in our knowledge of stellar spin. Half-built clock Before the Kepler mission, we only had data from very cool stars in very young clusters, all less than 0.6 billion years old and all spinning fairly fast (about once a week). In 2011, Dr Meibom's team used Kepler images to report on a different cluster, the one-billion-year-old NGC 6811. Its cool stars spin about once every 10 days. But beyond that, the only star we knew both age and spin rate for was our own sun - 4.6 billion years old, with a spin period of 26 days. "The construction of the cool star clock was on hold," Dr Meibom said. Now, the clock is looking good. The sun-like stars in the freshly studied cluster sit squarely and satisfyingly in the gap, spinning about every 18 days. "These new data show, with real observations, that this is on solid ground," Dr Meibom told BBC News. "We can get age as accurately as about 10% from this method." He added that this is a big improvement on some other methods for guessing stars' age, where the margin of error for cool stars can reach 100%. Ruth Angus, a PhD student researching gyrochronology at the University of Oxford, said the results were "a really big deal" for the field. "More evidence has been slowly accumulating that lots of stars do seem to follow this pattern, but how reliably stars fall onto this relation is a bit of an unknown," Ms Angus told the BBC. "This cluster will certainly help with our understanding of how good gyrochronology is as a method, and how valid it is. "It shows that these stars are doing what they're expected to do, and everything's peachy."

While the conflict is confined to their country, the Syrians keep coming to Lebanon to seek refuge. Officially, they are already more than 760,000 who have to be registered or in the process of being registered with UNHCR. The Lebanese government believes the number of Syrian refugees is more than a million in a country of 4.5 million people. An appeal for funds to the international community has had only a limited response. "We register between 11,000 and 15,000 every week. So the numbers continue, they keep a pace. But our appeal is only 27 percent funded. So we have to make very tragic choices every day between competing priorities. So we need a lot more funds. Both to help the refugees, but also to help the hosting communities that are bearing a disproportionate burden here in Lebanon," explained Ninette Kelley, UNHCR representative in Lebanon The European Union is one of the leading providers of assistance to Syrian refugees, but the funds are far from covering all their needs. The Bekaa Valley, the main point of entry into the country for Syrians.About twenty kilometres from the Syrian border is the town of Arsal where there is a clinic run by the charity Médecins sans frontières. It provides free primary health care and reproductive health services. It is an alternative to the Lebanese health services which are too expensive for refugees, whose medical expenses are only partially supported by the High Commissioner for Refugees. The clinic is always full. Rabih Kbar is a doctor in the MSF clinic: "Every day we see new faces, they are all new patients. In the past six months I think the numbers have doubled," he said. Intestine infections, respiratory problems, skin diseases, health problems are all associated with poor living conditions. While some have found shelter among the Lebanese people, many are forced to live in buildings under construction, derelict buildings, or makeshift camps. Shamiyeh arrived in June with her four children. She dreads the approach of winter. "We lack everything here. The most urgent thing is blankets for the children. They are cold and sick all the time and are taken regularly to the doctor," she pointed out. Shamiyeh also fears the spectre of war, which killed her husband and left its legacy on one of her children who was wounded in the head. She does not feel safe in Arsal, which has already come under fire from the Syrian army. "We fear that something will happen and we will be forced to flee again. We fear that the chaos might come here and we will targeted by bombs from the other side," she continued. Several members of the Free Syrian Army who were all were injured during the offensive by troops loyal to President Bashar al-Assad, against the city of Qussair, near the Lebanese border in June talked about their injuries. "Look ," said Faycal pointing out marks on his arm "the bullet entered through here and then exited there." Razi showed his scars from the conflict: "Look at me, look at my arms, splinters of shells everywhere and yet we continue to resist" "Even children, if they catch them, they massacre them.," said Ahmed. "The crisis has been going on for three years. We want a decision to be taken. All states are plotting against us. If they wanted to make a decision, they could do it in an hour," added Razi. "The United States can do everything," said Faycal while Razi opined: "All countries have disappointed us. All the meetings, speeches it's all lies. We call on all countries of the world to support us by giving us weapons, nothing else. The rest is up to us." The refugee camps at Arsal also act as a rear base for the rebels, who come to relax and visit with their families before secretly crossing the border again to fight. These men insist the international community should do more to help the refugees. Khaled has been at the camp since he lost a foot in battle. The Free Syrian Army, he said is determined to continue its fight against the the regime of Bashar al-Assad.

AirAsia QZ8501: Forty bodies found in missing plane search. At least 40 bodies have been recovered from the sea in the search for missing AirAsia Flight QZ8501, the Indonesian navy says. The bodies were spotted along with debris floating in the Java Sea off the Indonesian part of Borneo, in one of the search zones for the plane. There has been no official confirmation that the remains come from the plane. The Airbus A320-200, carrying 162 people from Surabaya in Indonesia to Singapore, disappeared on Sunday. The search operation is now in its third day, with the area widened to cover 13 zones over land and sea. During a news conference by the head of the operation, shown live on Indonesian TV, pictures of the debris were shown including a body floating on the water. Relatives of passengers on the plane watching the pictures were visibly shocked. Later, the Indonesian navy reported that 40 bodies had been retrieved by one warship. Its spokesman said the rescuers were continuing to recover bodies and were "very busy now". AirAsia CEO Tony Fernandes tweeted to the families: "My heart is filled with sadness for all the families involved in QZ 8501. On behalf of AirAsia my condolences." Search operation head Bambang Soelistyo said he was 95% certain the objects shown were from the plane, adding that a shadow was spotted under water which appeared to be in the shape of a plane. All resources were now being sent to the area where the debris was found, he said. Mr Soelistyo added that ships with more sophisticated technology were being deployed to check whether larger parts of the plane were submerged beneath the debris. Indonesian civil aviation chief Djoko Murjatmodjo, quoted by AFP news agency, said "significant things" such as a passenger door and cargo door had been found. He added that the objects had been found 160km (100 miles) south-west of Pangkalan Bun in Borneo's Central Kalimantan province. At least 30 ships, 15 aircraft and seven helicopters joined the operation when it resumed at 06:00 local time on Tuesday (23:00 GMT Monday). The operation, led by Indonesia, includes assistance from Malaysia, Singapore and Australia, with other offers of help from South Korea, Thailand, China and France. The US destroyer USS Sampson is on its way to the zone. Communication lost On board the plane were 137 adult passengers, 17 children and one infant, along with two pilots and five crew. Most were Indonesian but the passengers included one UK national, a Malaysian, a Singaporean and three South Koreans. The plane left Surabaya at 05:35 Jakarta time on Sunday and had been due to arrive in Singapore two hours later. Safety officials say the captain had asked for permission to take the plane higher but, by the time permission was granted, communication with the plane was lost. It was officially declared missing at 07:55. AirAsia previously had an excellent safety record and there were no fatal accidents involving its aircraft.

AFGHANISTAN After US Withdrawal: Return Of The TALIBAN & CIVIL WAR Afghan President Hamid Karzai has said that the withdrawal of the US-led forces from his country will lead to the return of the Taliban. The US and its allies invaded Afghanistan in 2001 as part of the so-called war on terror. The offensive removed the Taliban from power, but insecurity remains across the country. In this episode of INFocus, we will examine whether or not the withdrawal of the US-led foreign troops will push the country to a bloody civil war, to what extent the Taliban is already in control of the country and what share of any future government they could expect to gain.

Age of stars is pinned to their spin.
Astronomers have proved that they can accurately tell the age of a star from how fast it is spinning.

We know that stars slow down over time, but until recently there was little data to support exact calculations.

For the first time, a US team has now measured the spin speed of stars that are more than one billion years old - and it matches what they predicted.

The finding resolves a long-standing challenge, allowing astronomers to estimate a star\'s age to within 10%.

The work was presented in Seattle at a meeting of the American Astronomical Society and also appears in the journal Nature.

Closing a gap
Establishing the age of stars is a central question in astronomy - much like dating fossils is crucial to studying evolution.

Every day hundreds of refugees arrive at the gates of the High Commissioner for Refugees of the United Nations in Beirut.

While the conflict is confined to their country, the Syrians keep coming to Lebanon to seek refuge. Officially, they are already more than 760,000 who have to be registered or in the process of being registered with UNHCR.

The Lebanese government believes the number of Syrian refugees is more than a million in a country of 4.5 million people. An appeal for funds to the international community has had only a limited response.
