Republican Donald Trump is pulling away from the pack in the race for the party's U.S. presidential nomination, widening his lead over his closest rivals in the past week, a ReutersIpsos poll showed on Friday.


Republican voters show no signs they are growing weary of the brash real estate mogul, who has dominated political headlines and the 17-strong Republican presidential field with his tough talk about immigration and insults directed at his political rivals. The candidates are vying to be nominated to represent their party in the November 2016 general election.


Nearly 32 percent of Republicans surveyed online said they backed Trump, up from 24 percent a week earlier, the opinion poll found. Trump had nearly double the support of his closest competitor, former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, who got 16 percent. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson was third at 8 percent.


Even when Trump was pitted directly in the poll against just his top two competitors, 44 percent backed him. Bush won about 29 percent of respondents, and Carson 25 percent.


"He's not taking any guff from anybody," Dewey Stedman, 70, a Republican from East Wenatchee, Washington, said of the publicity-loving billionaire. "If you don't have something in your brains, you're not going to have billions of dollars."


Trump has driven the debate on the campaign trail with a hard-line immigration plan that calls for the deportation of undocumented immigrants, amendment of the Constitution to end automatic citizenship for all people born in the United States, and construction of a wall along the border with Mexico.


He also has feuded with Bush and other rivals while boasting he could easily beat Democratic front-runner Hillary Clinton.


Trump's campaign momentum has paid off with bigger crowds on the campaign trail. On Friday night, he moved a planned rally in Mobile, Alabama, to a football stadium seating more than 40,000.


"It is an appeal to people that are just aggravated about what's going on," Republican strategist Rich Galen said, adding that Trump is a "novelty act" that voters will tire of.


Friday's results in the online rolling opinion poll are based on a survey of 501 Republicans and have a credibility interval of plus or minus 5 percent.


Separate results found Clinton leading among Democrats, though support for her dipped below 50 percent to 48.5 percent.


U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont came in second in the poll of 625 Democrats, followed by Vice President Joe Biden, who has not entered the race. That survey had a credibility interval of plus or minus 4.5 percent.


A public memorial service for former All Blacks winger -Jonah Lomu will be held at Auckland's Eden Park on November 30, New Zealand Prime Minister John Key said Monday.


Lomu, who was awaiting a second kidney transplant and undergoing dialysis treatment, died unexpectedly on Wednesday aged 40 after battling a kidney disease for 20 years.


He had only returned to New Zealand a day ago after having undertaken commercial obligations at the recent Rugby World Cup in England, won by the All Blacks.


"Jonah touched people's lives across the country and around the world," Key said in a statement.


"This service will be open to all members of the public who want to remember the significant contribution Jonah made, not only to rugby here and overseas, but also to the wider community through his work with charities."


A special "Aho Faka Famili" (Day of the Family) event allowing people from the Pacific Islands to pay their traditional respects would be held on Saturday at an indoor venue in south Auckland before the Eden Park service, Key added.


A private funeral service is to be held on December 1.


Lomu's death plunged the rugby-mad nation into a state of disbelief, despite his well-publicized health issues.


Widely considered the sport's first global superstar, Lomu's life was commemorated around the rugby world over the weekend with the -Argentina team wearing jerseys with No.11 emblazoned on them as they warmed up for their clash with the Barbarians at Twickenham on Saturday.


Barbarians left winger Nemani Nadolo also blanked out the No.11 on the back of his jersey as a mark of respect for Lomu, who made several appearances for the invitational club side.


A church service in Mangere, where Lomu grew up, was held on Sunday with his -mother Hepi among the almost 1,000 mourners who gathered to remember him.


"He will always be a son of Tonga and the Pacific," local MP Sua William Sio told the service. "And he will always be a son of the South Side."


BEIJING, July 3 (Xinhua) -- Chinese President Xi Jinping said Monday that China-Russia economic and trade cooperation has great potential to be tapped as many new growth areas are emerging from structural optimization.


Xi made the remarks in an interview with Russian media ahead of his departure for the July 3-4 state visit to Russia.


The Chinese president said he and Russian President Vladimir Putin both think China and Russia should deepen economic and trade cooperation so as to reinforce their interests bond and better benefit the two peoples.


Economic and trade cooperation enjoys the broadest basis in China-Russia practical cooperation, and has great potential to be tapped because many new areas of growth are emerging from its structural optimization, Xi told the Russian media.


Xi cited the growth could be achieved from increased trade of mechanical and electrical and hi-tech products, smooth investment cooperation, deepening financial cooperation, the rapidly growing farm produce trade, the Far East development cooperation on a fas.
