Herd deployed to moo-ve on bikers
Hampshire County Council has placed eight cows on playing land at Monks Brook in Swaythling, Southampton, in a bid to deter youths on motorcycles as well as prevent travellers settling on the site.

Thieves smash car windows to steal inspection tabs

Mich. Muslim group says FBI asking people to spy
A Michigan Muslim organization said Thursday it has asked U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder to investigate complaints alleging the FBI is asking followers of the faith to spy on Islamic leaders and congregations. The Council of Islamic Organizations of Michigan sent a letter last week to Holder after mosques and other groups reported members of the community have been approached to monitor people coming to mosques and donations they make. Sandra Berchtold, a spokeswoman in the FBI's Detroit office, had no immediate comment.
Brown says sorry for 'smeargate'
Prime Minister Gordon Brown has apologised for the "smeargate" email affair which targeted members of the Conservative Party. Damian McBride, a close adviser to the Prime Minister for almost a decade, resigned in disgrace at the weekend after it emerged he had written "juvenile and inappropriate" emails to ex-Labour spin doctor Derek Draper.
In the private missives, the two men discussed setting up an "attack blog" called Red Rag that would have spread unfounded gossip about senior Conservative politicians.
