Turkey cheese was our attempt to make a healthier version of Hogshead Cheese. It turned out to be even better and is now wildly popular. We follow the same process as the hogshead cheese but replace all the pork meat with whole turkeys. Again, we don’t use any gelatin and the lack of pork gives turkey cheese a softer, more spreadable texture.

Initially, "Where Them Girls At" was recorded in 2010 and featured just Rida, however after getting into touch with Minaj about a collaboration, Guetta played Minaj the record and she decided to record vocals for it. Computer hackers obtained an a cappella version of the song, and added their own production before leaking the song online. Guetta and his label subsequently mastered a proper version of the song, released it earlier than planned and called an employee of The Pentagon to investigate the matter. An accompanying music video for the song was filmed in Los Angeles in May 2011 and released on 28 June 2011.

The government's LGBT advisory panel has been disbanded after three members quit last month, the BBC can reveal.

A government spokesman said a replacement for the panel, which was set up under Theresa May's premiership, "will be set out in due course".

The advisory group, which originally had 12 members, had been due to end their terms on 31 March.

Some members told the BBC they were willing to carry on but were not clear if their terms would be extended.

Equalities Minister Liz Truss has since written to the seven remaining members thanking them for their "constructive input".

The number of one-horned rhinos in Nepal's wildlife sanctuaries has increased by more than a hundred, marking a positive milestone in the Himalayan nation's conservation efforts.

According to the results of the latest census, Nepal's rhino population has risen to 752, from 645 in 2015.

Nepal is among only a few countries where greater one-horned rhinos are found. The animal was close to extinction in the last century, and its revival in Nepal and India is regarded as one of the greatest conservation success stories in Asia.

"We are very excited by the rhino survey's findings. After the tigers, now the rhino population has also gone up," Haribhadra Acharya, a senior official at the Department of National Parks and Wildlife Conservation, told the BBC.

Of the total number of rhinos, more than 90% live in the Chitwan National Park, which is also home to tigers, elephants, leopards and Gangetic gharials (fish-eating crocodiles).

Following the population increase in recent decades, the rhino's status has improved from endangered to vulnerable.

Sharp, who has scored three goals in 14 top-flight outings this season, picked up the injury during training.

"Always gutting to miss games so to be ruled out for the remainder of the season hurts," said the 35-year-old on social media.

Disgraced Wall Street financier Bernie Madoff, who was convicted for conning investors out of tens of billions of dollars, has died in prison at age 82.

The death was announced by the US Bureau of Prisons.

It collapsed during the financial crisis of 2008.

Hundreds of British Gas workers are expected not to sign new contracts to keep their jobs as a bitter industrial dispute rumbles on.

Engineers are taking strike action as part of the dispute over "fire and rehire" changes to contracts that give less favourable terms.

The GMB union said the company is engaged in "mass sackings" of workers.

But British Gas owner Centrica said the contract changes are "reasonable" and engineers are choosing to leave.
