A retired boxer has been charged with the murder of a pensioner found stabbed to death in her bungalow 11 years ago. David Newton, 69, appeared in court today in connection with the killing of Una Crown, 86 (pictured). The retired postmistress, of Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, died from stab wounds to her neck and chest, according to a post-mortem examination at the time.

Newton, also of Wisbech, appeared at Cambridgeshire Magistrates Court for a two-minute appearance, after which he was remanded into custody.

Paul Alexander (left top, left bottom, and central left) died on Monday, aged 78, after going through every adversity to live a life of incredible personal triumph and achievement. Despite being tied to the machine that kept him alive for 72 years after contracting polio aged six in 1952, the American lawyer lived a full and varied life as an amateur painter, law professor, published author, and rights campaigner. Among his many accomplishments, he graduated from law school and went on to represent clients in court, taught himself how to inhale, liberated himself from the confines of his iron lung - and even fell in love.

Emma Stone, the Oscar-winning actress,'s charming Los Angeles home sold for over $4 million in less than two weeks after she listed it. Norman Brokaw, William Morris talent agent, purchased the two-story home built in 1926 for $4.3 million. That's just below the city's mansion tax bill, Measure ULA, which goes into operation in April and puts a 4 percent levy on all residential and commercial real estate transactions over $5 million. The four-bedroom, four-bathroom home is nestled in the suburbs of Comstock Hills, an upscale neighborhood bordered by Sunset Boulevard to the north and the Los Angeles Country Club to the east.

Sam Haskell IV commands building workers to carry two heavy bags with rocks away, only for the workers to discover they contained body parts. The workers returned the bags and the money to Haskell, along with the receipt. They were then compelled to call the police and were arrested. Haskell was arrested on Wednesday morning and charged with murder. His wife and his in-laws are also missing.

A group of workers says they were hired to move garbage bags of 'body parts' from Sam Haskell's Los Angeles home. The employees said they were recruited by Haskell, 35, the son of a top Hollywood music talent agent who was arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of murder. A dismembered torso was thrown in a dumpster before a homeless man discovered it. Survivance video caught the moment a homeless man was thrown into a garbage can before being discovered by a homeless man. According to the workers, they were charged $500 to remove three large garbage bags from inside Haskell's garage, which they discovered was full of rocks.

A white SUV pulling up to a dumpster, a man getting out, opening the trunk, and throwing a heavy bag from the trunk into the dumpster were caught on a CCTV video from an Encino parking lot. After a woman's body was discovered inside the dumpster, the video was handed over to the police. Sam Haskell IV, 35, has been arrested and charged with murder. His wife, as well as her parents, are still missing, according to the KTLA.

Tanya and her husband bought a farmhouse in West Cornwall six years ago. The couple adore old buildings, but they have now made their house 'filthy and overwhelming.' 'We painted the farmhouse to match the Teletubbies, pink, blue, green, yellow, and gold, and then packed it with curios until it was the equivalent of a woman dressed in the dark,' she writes.

There is no period of British history that compares to Victorian age in terms of sheer zeal and innovation in terms of architecture and design. Around one in every six homes in the United Kingdom are Victorian, and many owners of these historic houses are trying to recreate the look that suits their buildings after a long postwar period of stripping away the past. So how best to go about getting the Victorian look?

Punters at a Stonegate pub in central London who recently launched 'dynamic' pricing have called the change a poor business decision, arguing that the pint price should be the same as advertised, not different. Others, who opposed the pricing system, said they could understand why pubs were enforcing such steps when the likes of theatres and airlines had already been using the same methods for years. Given how tough people were struggling financially at the time, another customer said the dynamic pricing was a bad corporate decision.

Stephen Bird, the Abrdn chief executive, warned that a slew of economic uncertainties - from geopolitical concerns to rising inflation and credit risk - was affecting investment.

Marlborough College is a prestigious private school with a cost of £42,930 per year. Some of the former pupils of the Princess of Wales, Jack Whitehall, and William Morris are among its former pupils. Kate Middleton, a 14-year-old girl who had left the school after being subjected to allegations of bullying at her previous school, Downe House, was a shy and lanky teen who had enrolled. She quickly found her feet in Marlborough, co-captaining the hockey team (left and right) and establishing close friendships.

In federal court, John Griffin had pleaded guilty to using interstate commerce to lure and coerce the child to engage in sexual activity at his Vermont ski house. Griffin, a reporter, paid $3,350 to Heather Carriker to fly with her child from Nevada to Boston in the Summer of 2020. After Griffin picked the pair up in Boston, Carriker and the then nine-year-old travelled to Ludlow, Vermont, to his ski cabin. Griffin subjected the child to sexual abuse while she was in the hospital.

Simon Mills, a damsel from a flood two days before Christmas in 2020, began to restore his 17th-century cottage in west Oxfordshire. He and Annabel, an interior designer, are now at the point of the project, where they debate cushions and curtains. They hope to be done by Easter!

The Anstey factory was established in the early twentieth century and moved to the Loughborough headquarters in 2000, employing a unique combination of old-fashioned and high-tech techniques. Whizz printers are cranking out rolls of wallpaper completely digitalized; on the other hand, there are shelves of original William Morris block prints, hand-carved from fruitwood and stored in a controlled cold room to prevent them from swelling or splintering.

As the people across the pond call it, every house needs a boot room (or a'mud room') - a place to take off coats and muddy boots before going across the threshold into the main house. To sort the problems of dripping waterproofs, filthy Wellingtons, screaming babies, and mud-caked canines, the majority of us have a porch, hallway, or utility room. Here's how to make yours a stylish space.

CHRISTOPHER STEVENS: The nonsense that wiggles through the brain of a self-righteous Leftie celebrity's brain is difficult to comprehend. Grayson Perry, an artist, looked at archive footage of a Boy Scout parade and likened it to the Hitler Youth. What is the twerp on about? I was a Scout a decade ago, and our Thursday teatime meetings consisted mainly of knots, woggles, and raucous gan-gooly. We didn't annexe the Sudetenland at any time. However, Perry is so programmed to see bigotry staining Britain's history that he conjures it out of nothing. When you consider that those 1930s lads, or their brothers and fathers, may have fought and died to defeat Hitler, his remark was particularly offensive.

EXCLUSIVE: With MailOnline's analysis revealing the highly different costs faced by families up and down the country, the cost-of-living crisis that has exacerbated the north-south divide has been left bare. According to a survey by MailOnline, regional variations in food and drinks in Leicester Square are higher than Middlesbrough, although a pint is £2.40 cheaper in Darlington than High Holborn.

MailOnline examines the differences between costs from the north to the south, from fish and chips and pies to pints, water bills, and council tax.
