By Dani Porter Half the fun of the Edinburgh Fringe Festival is in the pot-luck nature of finding shows - the joy, for example, at unexpectedly striking gold (I remain in awe of physical theatre show Giant, 12 months on). The alternative, wading through the thick wad of alphabetically-listed shows for an exhaustive search, is nigh on impossible anyway. So you keep an ear and an eye out for recommendations, or you head to a box office and pluck something at...

Britain's fittest family are ALL international triathletes Meet Britain's fittest family - four members of the same clan who will represent GB at the World World Triathlon Championship next month. Martin Rogers, 51, will be joined by his three children - Charlotte, 22, Tabby, 21, and Oscar, 17 - at the event in Rotterdam on September 17.

Cllr Chris Steward, who is a former City of York council leader, drew the comparison on his Twitter account on Sunday, but has since removed the tweet.

On Monday at 2:45, Hisham Al-Omeisy, a civil rights activist and documenter of Yemen’s often-ignored war, was taken from his family by armed guards loyal to the Houthis. Three years ago these people had swept into Sanaa, the capital of Yemen, and overthrown president Abed-Rabbo Mansour Hadi’s internationally recognised Government, seeking to secure military support from Arab Gulf states. Soon after, a Saudi-led coalition, which have led many to label this war as the Saudi Proxy War,  began a campaign in...

Regardless of the industry you work in, you may find that the spread of germs is quite difficult to stop. In the typical office, where there’s many workers in a small area, germs are bound to spread with very little contact needed. If somebody comes into work with a cold, it doesn’t take long before the whole office has it and a few people take days off to recuperate. It’s important, as a business owner, to expect these to happen....

These days, it makes logical sense to buy an existing e-commerce website. Not only does it give you the traffic and clientele that the previous owners of the website had, but it also means that you will have less work creating the site and building the clientele. As you can imagine, a site which did well before it is sold can end up to be quite a profitable purchase for a new business that specialize in the same niche that...

Miles Reucroft is undertaking a different way of playing the ever popular Fantasy Football this season. To understand his methodology, read part one here. The Week 1 review is here, Week 2 transfers & preview here. Crisis is a big word. Especially after two weeks. But for the likes of Newcastle, West Ham, Bournemouth and Brighton, the talk may not be so premature, but rather a precursor for a long, drawn out season. It’s a word I’m keen to avoid at FC Fakin’...

By Jim Mackney Hotel Salvation (Mukti Bhawan) is an allegorical film that deals with life, death, shame, and friendship. It is the first film by director, Shubhashish Bhutiani and despite the film’s small budget the piece uses this to its advantage by creating a film with a slow ambient rhythm, allowing the films bigger questions to be explored at their own pace. The film follows septuagenarian Daya (Lalit Behl) and his family, creating a sense of intimacy that is far...
