Pakistan batsman Umar Akmal has refused to divulge details of his two meetings with suspected bookies before the Disciplinary Panel which handed him a three-year ban after a hearing, according to Board sources. According to the source, Akmal had a meeting with two unidentified men in Defence Housing Society in Lahore. "Umar claims both these gentlemen met him at parties thrown by friends in DHA. But he has refused to even tell the Anti-Corruption officials what was discussed at these meetings," a reliable source in the Pakistan Cricket Board told PTI. "Even when the Anti-Corruption officials first presented their report to him on the night between 19th and 20th February in Karachi, Akmal admitted he committed a mistake by not reporting the meetings to them but refrained from giving any details, the source said.

This review discusses the state of the field of single-crystal diffuse scattering (SCDS), including detectors, data collection and the modelling techniques. High quality, three-dimensional volumes of SCDS data can now be collected at synchrotron light sources, allowing increasingly detailed and quantitative analyses to be undertaken.

Diffuse scattering is a rich source of information about disorder in crystalline materials, which can be modelled using atomistic techniques such as Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics simulations. Modern X-ray and neutron scattering instruments can rapidly measure large volumes of diffuse-scattering data. Unfortunately, current algorithms for atomistic diffuse-scattering calculations are too slow to model large data sets completely, because the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm has long been considered unsuitable for such calculations [Butler & Welberry (1992). J. Appl. Cryst. 25, 391–399]. Here, a new approach is presented for ultrafast calculation of atomistic diffuse-scattering patterns. It is shown that the FFT can actually be used to perform such calculations rapidly, and that a fast method based on sampling theory can be used to reduce high-frequency noise in the calculations. These algorithms are benchmarked using realistic examples of compositional, magnetic and displacive disorder. They accelerate the calculations by a factor of at least 102, making refinement of atomistic models to large diffuse-scattering volumes practical.

Between 13% and 16% of waste electric and electronic equipment (WEEE), furniture and leisure goods disposed of at household waste collection centres are in excellent working condition and could be easily be prepared for re-use, finds a new study from Bavaria, Germany. Improvements to waste collection, storage and treatment practices to prevent damage to disposed items could free up a further 13%-29% of these waste streams for re-use. Notably, weatherproof storage for WEEE at collection points could have prevented up to 86% of the damage endured by the studied items.
