Health secretary Matt Hancock was under mounting pressure last night to say who will take responsibility for the national fight against obesity after his controversial decision to close down Public Health England caused dismay among experts.
Creamy cheeses are considered liquids, so make sure that you've got 3.4 ounces or less if you're bringing on something like brie or goat cheese. Or, make your plane snacks a little less bougie and bring string cheese instead.
Actor Jeremy Bulloch, who played Boba Fett in the original Star Wars trilogy, has died aged 75.
He died in hospital on Thursday from health complications after living with Parkinson's disease for many years, his agent said.
"He had a long and happy career spanning more than 45 years," a statement said.
"He was devoted to his wife, three sons, and 10 grandchildren and they will miss him terribly."
Bulloch was best known for playing bounty hunter Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi.
The character has since featured in the second season of Star Wars spin-off series, The Mandalorian.
Bulloch also appeared in James Bond film Octopussy in 1983, and the BBC TV series Doctor Who in the 1970s.
Daniel Logan, who took over from Bulloch to play the role of Boba Fett in the 2002 film Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones, paid tribute to the actor on Instagram.
"RIP Legend I'll never forget all you've taught me. I'll love you forever," he wrote.
"Conventions won't be the same without you. May the force be with you always."
Star Wars creator George Lucas said Bulloch "brought the perfect combination of mystery and menace to his performance of Boba Fett".
He added: "Jeremy was a true gentleman who was very supportive of Star Wars and its fans, and I'm very grateful for his contributions to the saga and its legacy."
Mark Hamill, who played Luke Skywalker in the original Star Wars trilogy, described Bulloch as the "quintessential English gentleman".
"A fine actor, delightful company and so kind to everyone lucky enough to meet or work with him," he wrote on Twitter.
"I will deeply miss him and am so grateful to have known him."
The icy colossus that is A68a has knocked off a corner, seemingly as a result of striking the seafloor.
The 3,800-sq-km iceberg, which has been bearing down on the island of South Georgia, looked in recent days to be turning with the prevailing current.
But as it spun around, it appears part of the frozen block may have scraped the bed, inflicting damage on itself.
Satellite images on Thursday revealed a roughly 150-sq-km chunk to be floating free of the main berg.
The new piece of debris is so large that it's likely from now on to be called A68d, under the iceberg nomenclature operated by the US National Ice Center.
Two other large lumps that broke away previously from the primary block were designated A68b and A68c.
Originating in Antarctica in 2017, A68a is the world's largest iceberg "in the open ocean". There is another great tabular berg called A23a which is slightly bigger but this has hardly moved from its calving position at the Filchner-Ronne Ice Shelf in the Weddell Sea.
A68a, on the other hand, has travelled more than 1,500km in the past 3.5 years to get up into the South Atlantic.
Kellingley Colliery was a deep coal mine in North Yorkshire, England, 3.6 miles (5.8 km) east of Ferrybridge power station. It was owned and operated by UK Coal.
The colliery closed on 18 December 2015, marking the end of deep-pit coal mining in Britain.
Tarnów is also the warmest city of Poland, with the highest long-term mean annual temperature in the whole country.
James Lilburn "Pat" Coffee (August 3, 1915 – January 25, 1986) was a professional American football halfback and quarterback in the National Football League (NFL). He played for the Chicago Cardinals in 1937 and 1938. He set an NFL record in 1937 with the Cardinals with a 97-yard touchdown pass to receiver Gaynell Tinsley.
The Novato meteorite is an ordinary chondrite which entered the earth's atmosphere and broke up over Northern California at 19:44 Pacific Time on 17 October 2012. The fireball created sonic booms and fragmented.[2] The meteoroid was about 35 centimeters (14 in) across.[3]

Bury FC still exists, though, if only on paper. With no players, no league to play in, and no employees to speak of, it is little more than a hollow shell of the club fans knew and loved.
