News in brief

The Cambridge Evening News has launched an exclusive online version of hit puzzle game Sudoku.
Created entirely in-house by the New Media team, Sudoku Online has a live leaderboard so players can compete against each other for the best times. Web editor Jeremy Palmer said: "Many websites carry a version of the game now but the only way to play is to print it out and use a hard copy. We wanted to offer our readers something different and give them the chance to play against each other online".


A disabled grandfather has admitted the road-rage killing of a former reporter on the Bristol-based Evening World, who was also the brother of Hollywood legend Deborah Kerr.
Edmund (Ted) Trimmer, who worked for the Evening World in Bristol before leaving to work at the Daily Express in 1968, was 78 when he died last August following an attack in the city.


Newsagents were the latest guests to be invited to a social evening at the Leek Post offices in North Staffordshire.
The event, the third of its kind, saw editor Doug Pickford and his staff welcoming newsagents to the offices to enjoy a buffet and drinks. He said: "We have already held highly successful social evenings for our sports contributors and for our contacts in local groups such as WIs, the historical societies and the ramblers. It is always good to meet the people who help make the Leek Post such a success, and to thank them for the hard work they put in for us."


A new book, The RAM Report, edited by journalists Rich Cookson and Mike Jempson, explains every aspect of the ground-breaking work conducted by the RAM - Refugees, Asylum-seekers & the Media - Project since 1999. It is designed to assist minority groups develop strategies that will improve media coverage of their issues.
Launched in response to growing concern about the way refugee and asylum issues were being covered in the UK and European media, the RAM Project set out to offer advice to complainants and assist refugee groups in their media relations in 1999, and was soon providing media training for networks of concerned citizens and refugee community groups in dispersal areas, working closely with NUJ members and exiled journalists.
