Mumps cases soar to highest number in a decade
There were 5,042 recorded cases of mumps in England in 2019 – four times the number in 2018 and the highest level in a decade. Many of these cases were as a result of outbreaks in universities and colleges and most were in young adults who did not have the MMR (measles, mumps and rubella) jab. A large number of the 2019 cases were people born in the late 1990s and early 2000s who missed out on the MMR vaccine when they were children. In 1998, doctor Andrew Wakefield led a study that linked the MMR vaccine to autism. His work was subsequently discredited and he was struck off, but uptake of the vaccine dropped to about 80% in the late 1990s and a low of 79% in 2003.

WATCH: Travis Dean retires hurt after getting hit in the abdomen by Trent Copeland
Travis Dean retires hurt: The Victorian batsman coped a nasty blow which forced him to leave the field at the SCG.During the first day of the 19th match of the ongoing Sheffield Shield season between New South Wales and Victoria in Sydney, Victoria opening batsman Travis Dean had to retire hurt after coping a nasty blow in his abdominal region.It all happened on the second delivery of the ninth over when New South Wales seamer Trent Copeland beat Dean with the ball nipping back into the right-hand batsman. Hit hard where it hurts the most, Dean immediately sat down in pain. While batsmen tend to resume batting after a brief pause due to such a blow, it wasn’t the case this time as Victoria’s medical decided to take Dean off the field.Victoria, who had lost opening batsman Marcus Harris (7) in the previous over, sort of lost their second opener in the first session as captain Peter Handscomb walked in to bat at No. 4 after winning the toss and opting to bat first. While a 90-run partnership between Nic Maddinson…

'We’d love to see people use their tickets': Sooners, like most of college hoops, struggle to draw fans
NORMAN — Lloyd Noble Center was a stunning sight Wednesday night. The seats behind the baskets were virtually all empty for the OU-Iowa State basketball game. The seats in the corners contained scattered fans. Only the seats between the baselines were reasonably populated, and then only in the lower bowl. The Sooners produced an old-school result — a 90-61 rout in which six players scored in double figures, like it was 1990. But the attendance was alarming: a school-estimated 4,240, with 8,235 tickets sold. It might have been the smallest crowd for a conference game in 40 years. Kenny Mossman didn’t sleep well Wednesday night, having just come from the game. “Disappointed is probably the word that

Farmers Fear New Water Rules Could Push Them Under
William Beetham's attachment to the land he farms in the Wairarapa stretches back six generations. His family settled there in the 1850s and is regarded as one of New Zealand's farming dynasties. At one stage, the original 30-plus room Brancepeth station was the largest in the district. Beetham lives on a nearby farm and runs a beef and sheep business over the two properties. This is hilly land - baked dry and brown in the summer, but cold and wet in the winter. It is sandstone country, with easily eroded hillsides stretching down to a river - the Wainuiora - that runs along the valley. The family has been planting trees for years to keep the land from slipping.

Boys Noize – “Girl Crush” (Feat. Rico Nasty)
Are we about due for a blog-house revival? It wouldn't be the worst thing in the world, would it? Alexander Ridha, the German DJ and producer who records as Boys Noize, came up in the that whole mid-'00s wave, and he's been working steadily ever since. He's also become a prolific collaborator — working with Frank Ocean on "DHL" and with Skrillex and Ty Dolla $ign on "Midnight Hour." Today, Boys Noize has a new single out, a collaboration with the festival-wrecking rap energy-bomb Rico Nasty. The combination makes sense, Rico Nasty's single greatest collaborator is Kenny Beats, a veteran of the EDM universe, and Boys Noize records often have the kind of trashy energy that she can project. But "Girl Crush," the new Boys Noize/Rico collab, isn't really a Rico Nasty song. She doesn't rap in it. Instead, she purrs about a girl she likes over a pulsing electro beat. It's not doing a lot for me right now, but I could imagine it going off late at night in a room where everybody is on cocaine.

Universal Confirms That Nirvana, Beck, Soundgarden, Slayer, More Masters Were Damaged Or Destroyed In 2008 Fire
Last year, in a massive feature, the New York Times reported on a musical-history loss that had been kept largely secret. In 2008, a fire at the Universal Studios Florida lot raged through and devastated a warehouse where Universal Music Group had been keeping decades' worth of master recordings. Many thousands of those masters — irreplaceable high-quality original recordings of songs, both iconic and forgotten — were reportedly destroyed. Universal kept this quiet for more than a decade, never alerting the artists, who, at least in some cases, were the legal owners of those masters. And now Universal has been forced to admit to some of the damage done in that fire. According to Rolling Stone, Universal has filed documents admitting that master recordings from 19 artists were destroyed or damaged in the fire. This was part of the discovery process in a class-action lawsuit filed on behalf of many of the musicians whose music was reportedly lost. The list includes some truly important
