By PETER SIMPSON - More by this author » Last updated at 22:15pm on 25th January 2007 Zhang, the eight-year-old marathon girl She is only eight, but Zhang Huimin's father has high hopes for her. However, as he trains the schoolgirl for the 2016 Olympics, many fear for her health. As part of Huimin's training, she must run 33 miles - more than a marathon - every day for 15 days.

The "despicable" behaviour of scavengers has forced the authorities to invoke ancient legislation to stop looters raiding cargo on a Devon beach. Powers not used for 100 years will be used to force people to return goods recovered from the stricken container ship MSC Napoli. Separate laws will also be used to ban the public from Branscombe beach. The police said organised gangs were targeting the beach and were behind some of the worst looting. Over the last two days scavengers have descended on the beach, taking away goods that included BMW motorbikes, wine, face cream and nappies. Officers closed roads to the beach to deter treasure-seekers and to allo…

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6289519.stm China admits satellite shot down China has confirmed it carried out a test that destroyed a satellite, in a move that caused international alarm. Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Jianchao said a test had been carried out but insisted China was committed to the "peaceful development of outer space". The US backed reports last week that China had used a ground-based medium-range ballistic missile to destroy a weather satellite. It was the first known satellite intercept test for more than 20 years. Several countries, including Japan, Australia and the US, have expressed concern at the test. Until Tuesday, …

FORGET the festive socks, this year’s most wanted Christmas present was the Nintendo Wii. The latest games console, which boasts a unique wireless hand-held controller, has been flying off the shelves since its release earlier this month. And despite complaints about the safety of the Wii Remote - used here by model Nell McAndrew - shops have been inundated with pre-orders from people desperate to get their hands on one. Online retailer Amazon says the console is the fastest selling pre-order item in its history. The site’s Console and Video Games manager James Schall said: "We sold out of our entire initial stock in just seven minutes. It was definitely th…

They call him The Whirlwind. But one of snooker’s biggest draws has been blowing cold for too long. Jimmy White used to have the swagger of a natural-born thriller, a man who drew gasps with his dashing style and outrageous potting ability. But his 6-1 drubbing by Matthew Stevens in the wildcard round of the Masters on Sunday at his local Wembley venue was a sorry sight. To see him sitting forlorn, powerless, in his chair was to witness a hugely popular sportsman in danger of terminal decline. Jimmy will tell you otherwise. Six times a World Championship runner-up, he still says he can win the big one in Sheffield. He is deluding himself. White is provision…

Clever girls are more likely to binge-drink Last updated at 22:16pm on 17th January 2007 Young women are more likely to binge-drink if they are well educated, says a study. But the reverse is true in later life as those with fewer qualifications start drinking more heavily in their 40s. Researchers believe the difference could be down to the fact that better-educated females tend to put off child rearing while less-educated ones have children earlier and are more likely to drink heavily when the children are grown up. The type of jobs linked to higher and lower qualifications also contributes to contrasting drinking habits, the study found. …
