:22:23. > :22:30.Brendan Rodgers has assured Celtic fans he is staying at the club.
:22:31. > :22:37.If you are happy and you know it, raised the flag. At the Celtic
:22:38. > :22:42.training ground today it was pretty much a league title loving. They
:22:43. > :22:46.have good reason to celebrate. This was empowering their way past heart
:22:47. > :22:51.yesterday. It was never really in doubt. Like so often this season

:23:11. > :23:17.not interested for now. 18 months after the Liverpool job, I was
:23:18. > :23:24.sacked. Now I am very happy and content. I'm in my dream job. That
:23:25. > :23:28.is the reality of it. The other reality is his players are on course
:23:29. > :23:36.for a treble and a possible season unbeaten. I know you do not like to
:23:37. > :23:41.talk about it but there must be something you focus on in that
:23:42. > :23:47.dressing room. It is the history that people talk about for years and
:23:48. > :23:52.years. To get the squad to do that, I believe we have the potential. We
:23:53. > :23:55.just need to keep working hard, as I have said. Something this man
:23:56. > :24:03.demands. But they know when they do they get the rewards.
:24:04. > :24:08.What's it like going into a black hole?
:24:09. > :24:18.The Edinburgh science Festival is aiming to do this and more.
:24:19. > :24:26.Is it art or is it science question at scientists used lasers to
:24:27. > :24:32.simulate lack holes in the laboratory. This artist was working
:24:33. > :24:36.alongside them. The whole version are making light travel slower than
:24:37. > :24:41.the speed of light then making it vanished down a cosmic plughole. I
:24:42. > :24:46.spend most of my residency probably looking like I was doing nothing. I
:24:47. > :24:50.chose to sit in the laboratory corridor, which was not very
:24:51. > :24:57.comfortable. Every time someone was milling around, I would peer over
:24:58. > :25:03.and ask questions. There is a tendency to think about art and
:25:04. > :25:08.science as being separate. Here is a work of art that the base of the
:25:09. > :25:11.laws of physics. After this exhibition is over it would be used
:25:12. > :25:16.in a scientific experiment. Researchers will be using it to save

:25:21. > :25:24.the exhibition Art inspired by research into the waters of
:25:25. > :25:27.Scotland, including a coral reef in the Western Isles. The data and
:25:28. > :25:34.information the scientists gather has a great beauty to it. It is very
:25:35. > :25:39.tactile and sensory. It has been interesting for me talking them
:25:40. > :25:44.about how we can represent that and asking interesting questions like,
:25:45. > :25:48.if you were to walk along the sea bed at 600 metres depth of the
:25:49. > :25:54.coast, what would it feel like and what would you see? The artist did
:25:55. > :25:57.not just watch but worked with the scientists. The process involved a
:25:58. > :26:05.lot of design, discussion, sketching ideas. Much like science. I don't
:26:06. > :26:09.think it's that important that the public understand the details of
:26:10. > :26:13.what we are doing in the lab but what is important is that the public
:26:14. > :26:17.has a good time, enjoys themselves and see something new and learn
:26:18. > :26:21.something new and gets excited about the science. More than a dozen
:26:22. > :26:27.artists are taking part in the exhibition. It is at this venue
:26:28. > :26:30.until mid-May to show that science is beautiful.
:26:31. > :26:43.It has been a going downhill type of day for many of us with rain moving
:26:44. > :26:49.in from the West. Blustery conditions for many. Particularly so
:26:50. > :26:52.along the West Coast and across the Northern Isles. This evening and for
:26:53. > :26:56.a time to write, further bands of rain coming in from the West,
:26:57. > :27:00.crossing the country and eventually clearing away into the North Sea. In
:27:01. > :27:04.the early hours, a lot of dry weather with showers moving in
:27:05. > :27:09.across the North West and Northern Isles. Clear spells in the sheltered
:27:10. > :27:17.east and a touch of ground frost. For the most part, temperatures
:27:18. > :27:20.around two to five Celsius. Wins will be veering westerly overnight.
:27:21. > :27:24.Tomorrow will start the day with a lot of dry weather. Plenty of
:27:25. > :27:28.brightness and sunshine. A chilly start as well. As we go through the
:27:29. > :27:32.day cloud will increase across many areas and we hold on to the showers
:27:33. > :27:39.across the North. There will be fairly frequent showers and at times
:27:40. > :27:44.heavy with hail and strong to gale force winds come tomorrow afternoon.
:27:45. > :27:47.Across much of the mainland, a fairly cloudy prospects tomorrow
:27:48. > :27:51.afternoon. The best of the brightness and sunshine will be in
:27:52. > :27:55.this sheltered East. Temperatures will peak around 13 Celsius. The
:27:56. > :27:59.showers continued to affect the Western Isles and the north-west
:28:00. > :28:05.Highlands, accompanied by brisk, westerly winds. Tomorrow evening the
:28:06. > :28:09.winds will strengthen further across the Northern Isles. Gusts up to 65
