The lawsuit, which seeks injunctive and declaratory relief against Alameda County, was first reported by CNBC. The lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court for California’s Northern District.

Jessica Ennis-Hill said it would be among her greatest feats if she can win a medal at the World Championships in Beijing, barely a year after giving birth to her first baby.

Jessica Ennis-Hill has not given up hope of becoming a three-time world champion as she waits for the gold medal she was denied in 2011 by a drugs cheat.

Olympic champion Jessica Ennis-Hill showed on Thursday that she has one or two extra bows to her sporting string other than the seven disciplines she competes in during the heptathlon.

Jessica Ennis-Hill's coach has told Sebastian Coe to immediately start drawing up a list of medals that should be taken from drug cheats and handed to the athletes they robbed.

Andy Hill, who married the athlete in 2013, shared a photograph of the '#supermum' moments after she crossed the finish line in the 800m, the final round of the event.

Sheffield athlete Jessica Ennis-Hill was pictured at London Heathrow Airport today, having achieved a heptathlon silver medal two years after the birth of her son Reggie.

It was Reggie's bath time when Ennis-Hill found out she would finally be awarded the 2011 world championship heptathlon title which was stolen from her by a Russian drugs cheat.

Amid prevalent chaos and uncertainty over access to the essential services and commodities during the lockdown, we bring you the latest updates from your city.

The complexes bis­(acetyl­acetonato-κ2O,O')(N,N,N',N'-tetra­methyl­ethylenedi­amine-κ2N,N')manganese(II), [Mn(C5H7O2)2(C6H16N2)], bis­(acetyl­acetonato-κ2O,O')(N,N,N',N'-tetra­methyl­ethylenedi­amine-κ2N,N')iron(II), [Fe(C5H7O2)2(C6H16N2)], and bis­(acetyl­acetonato-κ2O,O')(N,N,N',N'-tetra­methyl­ethylenedi­amine-κ2N,N')zinc(II), [Zn(C5H7O2)2(C6H16N2)], were synthesized from the reaction of the corresponding metal acetyl­acetonates [M(acac)2(H2O)2] with N,N,N',N'-tetra­methyl­ethylenedi­amine (TMEDA) in toluene. Each of the complexes displays a central metal atom which is nearly octa­hedrally surrounded by two chelating acac and one chelating TMEDA ligand, resulting in an N2O4 coordination set. Despite the chemical similarity of the complex units, the packing patterns for compounds 1–3 are different and thus the crystal structures are not isotypic.

The two new tetra­kis-substituted pyrazines, 1,1',1'',1'''-(pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra­yl) tetra­kis­(N,N-di­methyl­methanamine), C16H32N6, (I) and N,N',N'',N'''-[pyrazine-2,3,5,6-tetra­yltetra­kis­(methyl­ene)]tetra­kis­(N-methyl­aniline), C36H40N6, (II), both crystallize with half a mol­ecule in the asymmetric unit; the whole mol­ecules are generated by inversion symmetry. There are weak intra­molecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds present in both mol­ecules and in (II) the pendant N-methyl­aniline rings are linked by a C—H⋯π inter­action. The degredation product, N,N'-[(6-phenyl-6,7-di­hydro-5H-pyrrolo­[3,4-b]pyrazine-2,3-di­yl)bis(methyl­ene)]bis­(N-methyl­aniline), C28H29N5, (III), was obtained several times by reacting (II) with different metal salts. Here, the 6-phenyl ring is almost coplanar with the planar pyrrolo­[3,4-b]pyrazine unit (r.m.s. deviation = 0.029 Å), with a dihedral angle of 4.41 (10)° between them. The two N-meth­yl­aniline rings are inclined to the planar pyrrolo­[3,4-b]pyrazine unit by 88.26 (10) and 89.71 (10)°, and to each other by 72.56 (13)°. There are also weak intra­molecular C—H⋯N hydrogen bonds present involving the pyrazine ring and the two N-methyl­aniline groups. In the crystal of (I), there are no significant inter­molecular contacts present, while in (II) mol­ecules are linked by a pair of C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming chains along the c-axis direction. In the crystal of (III), mol­ecules are linked by two pairs of C—H⋯π inter­actions, forming inversion dimers, which in turn are linked by offset π–π inter­actions [inter­centroid distance = 3.8492 (19) Å], forming ribbons along the b-axis direction.

The proton-conducting material (NH4)4H2(SeO4)3 is examined to check whether its conductivity spectra are sensitive to subtle changes in the crystal structure and proton dynamics caused by external pressure. The AC conductivity was measured using impedance spectroscopy, in the frequency range from 100 Hz to 1 MHz, at temperatures 260 K < T < 400 K and pressures 0.1 MPa < p < 500 MPa. On the basis of the impedance spectra, carefully analyzed at different thermodynamic conditions, the p–T phase diagram of the crystal is constructed. It is found to be linear in the pressure range of the experiment, with the pressure coefficient value dTs/dp = −0.023 K MPa−1. The hydrostatic pressure effect on proton conductivity is also presented and discussed. Measurements of the electrical conductivity versus time were performed at a selected temperature T = 352.3 K and at pressures 0.1 MPa < p < 360 MPa. At fixed thermodynamic conditions (p = 302 MPa, T = 352.3 K), the sluggish solid–solid transformation from low conducting to superionic phase was induced. It is established that the kinetics of this transformation can be described by the Avrami model with an effective Avrami index value of about 4, which corresponds to the classical value associated with the homogeneous nucleation and three-dimensional growth of a new phase.

The proton-conducting crystal (NH4)4H2(SeO4)3 is examined to check whether its conductivity spectra and the phase transition to the superprotonic phase are sensitive to subtle changes in the crystal structure and proton dynamics caused by various thermodynamic conditions. It is established that the kinetics of this transformation can be described using the Avrami model with an effective Avrami index value associated with homogeneous nucleation and three-dimensional growth of a new phase.
