By Richard Shears and Martin Robinson PUBLISHED: 01:04 EST, 13 June 2013 | UPDATED: 12:36 EST, 13 June 2013 A British oil worker who spent a terrifying 48 hour ordeal at the hands of kidnappers in Indonesia, fought back the tears as he told how his captors let him go because his Indonesian wife could not afford their £300,000 ransom demand. Engineer Malcolm Primrose, 61, who was found yesterday in a palm oil plantation, said he had feared he was never going to see his wife and family again. 'Excuse me if I am a little bit emotional,' Mr Primrose as he sat with his wife Nurasiah at the police station in Parsi Putih village in the northern province of East Aceh.

By Richard Hartley-parkinson Last updated at 11:51 AM on 11th July 2011 Nasa is monitoring a piece of 'Russian' space junk that looks likely to come dangerously close to the International Space Station during a planned space walk tomorrow. The debris is heading towards the station, where Atlantis yesterday docked on its final mission. Scientists are still trying to work out how big the object is and how close it will come to Atlantis. Some believe it originated from a defunct Russian satellite that is orbiting Earth. LeRoy Cain, mission management team leader, said he hopes the space junk will keep a safe distance and as they observe its trajectory throughout today, they will be able to work out how close it will come.

(CNN) -- Newt Gingrich quit the presidential race on Wednesday. Long after he exhausted the patience of the voters, he finally concluded that the mathematical probability of winning the Republican nomination was next to nil. Why spend money and raise false hopes if you can't win? Best to get out now and join the veepstakes. That's the kind of logic that an ordinary, candidate-focused campaign employs. Ron Paul, on the other hand, refuses to drop out. Commanding a plurality of delegates in only one state, and having taken just 10.61 percent nationally so far, it could be argued that the 76-year-old libertarian has even less reason to carry on than Gingrich -- except perhaps to collect the air miles.

Timothy Stanley says Ron Paul has gained influence, if not a nomination
@highlight
Paul's brand of libertarian Republicanism deserves GOP notice, he says

Paul represents a message that is bigger than the candidate, Stanley says

Question: All of this means the @placeholder can no longer ignore its libertarian "fringe."


By Kieran Gill Anton Ferdinand has signed for Police United in the Thai Premier League in a bid to revive his career, and says Muangthong United's Jay Bothroyd convinced him to make the switch. Ferdinand had a sorry time in the Turkish Super Lig last season, making just three appearances for Antalyaspor as they were relegated and six on loan to Bursaspor. The 29-year-old's career has stalled since leaving QPR in August 2013 after they were relegated to the Championship, but Ferdinand hopes to follow Bothroyd's lead and seize his chance in Thailand.
