David Cameron heckled by flood victim as he visits York
Some 500 military troops have been mobilised to aid emergency services, with another 1,000 on standby should the situation worsen. The Environment Agency urged residents to remain vigilant because more “severe” flooding was expected to continue today.

All three were sent home for failed drug tests.


Tadcaster Bridge collapses, another victim of the floodwater
A historic North Yorkshire town has been cut in half after a 300-year-old bridge collapsed last night in a surge of flood water. There are now four severe flood warnings, 46 flood warnings and 81 flood alerts in place across England and Wales.

“When you don’t do the right things, there’s consequences”, he said.


‘Star Wars,’ ‘Jurassic World’ bring record box office
The previous record was held by ” Jurassic World “, which hit the milestone 18 days after it was released, including China sales. Disney and Lucasfilm couldn’t have hoped for a better reception, both critically and financially.

Swinney did not say what rules the players violated.

“115 guys on the team, 112 did what they were supposed to, three didn’t”, Swinney said.

Deon Cain is one of three Clemson players reportedly suspended for the Orange Bowl. They usually involve trips to new cities during winter break, fun festivities before the game, and lots of goodies for the players. Lakip is a senior and already graduated, so his college career is over.

“He won’t be back with us at Clemson”, Swinney said. Cain has the chance to rejoin the team at some point if “he grows up” said Swinney. “If he doesn’t, then he won’t, it’s really pretty simple”. All three are backups, but Cain is a significant loss. Lakip, who was also suspended for three games earlier this season due to drug related issues, has handled Clemson’s kickoffs and recently took over kicking extra points. The freshman was expected to play a prominent role in the bowl game. Bowl games are rewards for teams following grueling regular seasons. Cain ranked second on the team with 582 yards and added five touchdown catches, all of which came in the Tigers’ last six games. He had five touchdowns and averaged 17.1 yards per reception.

McCullough saw playing time in 2015 but didn’t have a catch. He did not catch a single pass in 2015. “They broke (team) rules”.
