mavis was watching adam head to lane four in the 50 metres final, looking for the black cap.re's been extensive attention on the muscle of the man, but so much rests on the technicality of peaty‘s swim — he makes the old—fashioned breaststroke more active, more efficient, more urgent. yesterday, he did 50 metres in under 26 seconds — 25.95. that's what he was chasing again, as well as simply winning the race, of course. their dreams are no longer quick enough, and the time, 25.99, just outside of his own world record... well, yes, four hundredths of a second outside — don't dare be disappointed. he is a double world champion, and peaty still had the mixed medley relay, where britain finished...fifth. well, watch out for improvements — he promises. i'm so, so happy with my performances here, two 25 points now, and i know there's more in that, but i don't want to spoil it for next year. yes, from uttoxeter to budapest, all his fans need something to look forward to. joe wilson, bbc news. newsnight is coming up on bbc two. here's emily maitlis. a week of drama at the white house

thank you mavis and caroline, mavis and caroline, live in budapest this morning. a shower. we could see the odd rumble of thunder this afternoon. temperatures round about 17 celsius. if you catch a shower and will be some gusty wins associated with that. some breezy winds for scotland and northern ireland and a high chance of seeing showers. through the evening, the showers tend to fade away across england and wales, but they will continue across scotla nd but they will continue across scotland and northern ireland. the high pressure is with us. overnight lows about 12 to 13 celsius. how about friday? it is more of the same really. a largely dry start to the day. showers frequent in northern and western areas. later on friday, we will see persistent rain spreading into south—west england, wales, the midlands and the south—east. some uncertainty as to how far north that area of rain will be by the afternoon, but roughly southern areas of northern england. o nto southern areas of northern england. onto saturday. sunny spells and showers. there could be some cloud an

mavis is a legend. still to come on sportsday.be in budapest for more on his success. celtic start their bid to reach the final qualifying round of the champions league — they take on norwegian champions rosenborg later. and...i and... iam at and... i am at the england training base in the netherlands and tomorrow they face portugal, where a point will see them through to the quarterfinals. and it is a tonne up for the oval as the south london ground becomes the fourth test venue to stage 100 test matches. 12—time grand slam champion novak djokovic won't play again this year because of an elbow injury. it means he'll miss this year's us open in new york — the first time he'll miss a major since making his debut in 2004. djokovic retired hurt during his quarterfinal at wimbledon earlier this month and said at the time he was considering taking a break to recover from what is a long—standing injury. in a message on social media, he confirmed he wouldn't need surgery but rest was necessary. it will take a couple of months at least wi

mavis says, i am gratefulfor good hands out there.nd is in. the staff are wonderful, the food is good, he's showered and shaved every day. i cannot thank them enough. i go four times a week and stay until seven p:m.. thank you for those comments. do get in touch. let's catch up now with the sport. home fans had lots to cheer about at wimbldeon yesterday, because for the first time in 20 years, there are four british players through to the third round. johanna konta said it was great to be part of it — she needed three sets and three hours to beat donna vekic, but she made it through to round three for the first time. iam i am definitely here with the intention to be part of the event for the full two weeks. but as you saw out there, every single player here plays at a very high level, so there is no easy match and i am just grateful to have another go. there was a memorable win for heather watson, who dominated against the 18th seed anastasia sevastova, and faces the former world number one victoria azarenka next. aljaz bedene also re

when peaty won olympic gold in rio, grandmother mavis was glued to the telly in uttoxeter.n. to be here at this time, it meant the world to me. it's very touching, really. i couldn't go and see him in rio. but asi couldn't go and see him in rio. but as i say, this has made up for everything. i have been so pleased i have come. it is 20 years since i have come. it is 20 years since i have flown. but it was well worth it. after two world record tuesday, was it too much to expect more from him today? there has been extensive attention on the muscle of the man. but so much rests on the technicality of his swim. he makes the old—fashioned technicality of his swim. he makes the old —fashioned breaststroke technicality of his swim. he makes the old—fashioned breaststroke more active, efficient, more urgent. yesterday he did 50 metres in under 26 seconds. that is what he was chasing again, as well as simply winning the race, of course. the time, 25.99just outside his winning the race, of course. the time, 25.99 just outside his world record. will yes, four hundredths of a second ou

spencer, to carry on where secretary mavis left and make sure we adopted the threat and we are ready. mr. spencer: thank you, senator. sen. warren: thank you. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you, mr. chairman. mr. spencer, congratulations to you and your family. appreciate your desire to serve your country again. i wanted to get back to the byue that i think was lost the last secretary of the navy. i want to associate my concerns that senator cotton raised about your predecessor, who took his eye off the ball on many things, readiness, but particularly training. to that list that senator cotton mentioned, the previous secretary of the navy gave an order to integrate boot camp in two weeks. he said, have this done in two weeks. the most reckless order i have seen as a member of this committee by anyone in the military. so i want to get a sense of your view on training, on hard, rigorous training. there has been a lot of focus on korea in the last several months. the members of this committee, myself included, have a lot of concerns. have you read the book "this kind of war?" mr. spen

. >> in its farewell speech in front of sailors and marines, secretary mavis said if we fail to act onimate change, instability around the globe will intensify and our basis risk being lost. i think he is right. i will be counting on you, mr. spencer, where the secretary left off and ensure we adapt to this threat and we are ready. >> thank you, senator. >> thank you. thank you, mr. chairman. >> thank you mr. chairman and mr. spencer. congratulations to you and your family. appreciate your desire to serve your country, again. i want to get back to the issue that i think was lost by the last secretary of the navy and i want to associate my concerns that senator cotton raised about your predecessor who took his eye off the ball on many things, readiness, but particularly training. to that list, senator cotton mentioned the previous secretary of the navy integrated boot camp in two weeks. he said have this done in two weeks. the most ridiculous order i have seen as a member of this committee by anyone in the military. so, i want to get a sense of your view on training, on hard, rigorous t

shouldn't have forced through congress without any opposition support of social and economic change as mavis as obamacare, and we shouldn't do the same with ours. why don't we try the old way of legislating in the senate? the way our rules and customs encourage us to act. if this process ends in failure, which seems likely, then let's return to regular order. let the health education labor and pensions committee under chairman alexander and ranking member murray hold hearings, try to report a bill out of committee with contributions from both sides. [ applause ] something that my dear friends on the ore side of the aisle didn't allow to happen nine years ago. let's see if we can pass something that will be imperfect, full of compromises and not very pleasing to implacable partisans on either side but that might provide workable solutions for problems americans are struggling with today. what have we to lose by trying to work together to find those solutions? we're not getting done much apart. i don't think any of us feels very proud of our incapacity merely preventing your political opponent
