I read quite a few months ago about the Norway Pavillion at Epcot redoing its movie, but haven`t heard much since. Any news on whats happening?
Yes I need to know about this too. My wife loves the Malestrom, and was so excited to take me to it the first time that we had to get fast passes, and then we came back to a 5 minute line...she still loves it though
This past wednesday it was still the old one. We didn't stop to watch it, but I could tell in passing it was the old one.
The rumor of a new movie has been floating around for a good 10 years. While I do enjoy the charm of the old movie (I'm one of the few who actually sit and watch the whole thing) I'm ready for a new one. I just doubt a new movie will increase the crowds at Epcot so where is the ROI for Disney? Unless the Norwegian government is paying for it, I wouldn't hold your breath.
Maybe if they revamp all of the movies it will keep people in the world showcase longer, actually increasing the roi for the while park. Many visitors may be skipping the ride now because its dated. Time in the park increases revenue, period.
The ROI I see, if Norway is indeed still funding maintenance of Maelstrom, would be an increased desire on the part of Americans to visit Norway. Wasn't that the original purpose of the WS movies?
According to the following article, the Norway pavilion at Epcot opened in 1988 with sponsorship, but Disney has been solely responsible for the Norway pavilion since 2002: http://land.allears.net/blogs/jackspence/2012/01/norway_pavilion_part_one_1.html I'm sure the Disney Company would love to have a sponsor willing to pay for an update to the movie (and to Maelstrom too). But there's been no sponsor for more than ten years, so any enhancements would have make ROI sense for Disney.
Ill chip in $5 toward the new Norway movie. I'll even double that to $10 if they kick Norway out of the World Showcase and put in Sweden or Denmark. Imagine a replica of the VASA or the "real" little mermaid in the lagoon.

The cost of Northern Ireland cuts
A number of leading psychologists visited Belfast for the Society's Division of Clinical Psychology 2011 Strategy Meeting last week (June 9 and 10). The event began with a Stormont lunchtime lecture delivered by the Division's Chair - Professor Peter Kinderman from the University of Liverpool.
The meeting discussed ways of securing access to quality psychological interventions, often for the most vulnerable in our society, in the current climate of cuts and efficiency savings.
Professor Chris McCusker, Chair of the Northern Ireland Division, said the government is paying notable attention to psychological therapies at present.
He explained these interventions are important "not only for improving the health and well-being of individuals but the health of the nation through employability, productivity and social inclusion".
Speaking to the BBC, Professor McClusky noted cuts to psychology budgets within trusts in Northern Ireland would serve to undermine the Department of Health's psychological strategy that was outlined in 2010.

Revisiting the Moto X: Only the good die young
This week Google shocked the tech world by announcing that it was selling Motorola Mobility to Lenovo. While that raises lots of questions about future Motorola phones, it doesn't take anything away from the company's current flagship, made entirely under Google ownership. Read on, as we use our first hands-on with the wood-backed version as an excuse to revisit the terrific Moto X. Read More
ModCubes: The LEGO bricks of modular furniture
Modular furniture – that is, furniture than can be adapted to suit changing needs – is becoming an increasingly common concept. One company has gone right back to basics, and designed building blocks for an extensive range of modular furniture. These building blocks are called ModCubes, and when combined together they form pieces of furniture known as ModRoomz. The word LEGO is nowhere to be seen, but the Danish toy company deserves at least a small nod of appreciation. Read More
Lincoln to use wood-based fiberglass substitute in new MKX
Usually when you hear about wood being used in a car's interior, it's a fancy solid hardwood used to class up the dashboard. On Ford's 2014 Lincoln MKX, however, a relatively new wood-based composite material will be used in place of heavier, less eco-friendly fiberglass. Read More
Wood-framed Sandwichbike ready to hit the streets
Since the unveiling of the first Sandwichbike prototype in 2006, it's been a long road to commercial production for its Dutch designer Basten Leijh. The wood-framed bike is due to officially launch in Amsterdam on Sunday, and will be available for shipping thereafter. Read More
Spruce Stove burns one long log, a bit at a time
I speak from experience when I say that it's actually fun to go into the woods, saw up fallen trees, then bring the wood home to burn over the winter. What isn't so much fun is subsequently sawing the logs into stove-length pieces. With the Spruce Stove, however, you don't have to – you just continuously feed one long log in as it burns, sort of like feeding a pencil into a pencil sharpener. Read More
The Nomadic Chair is built for portability over comfort
Spanish designer Jorge Penadés believes that our idea of what makes a piece of furniture a luxury item has now changed. In a press release, he explains how luxury is "not anymore a matter of comfort." Instead it's being able to "decide where you want to have a moment of peace, a chance to escape from hectic activity of contemporary lifestyles." This philosophy is in plain view with his Nomadic Chair, which sees comfort reduced to a minimum to increase its portability. Read More
Rubber band gatling gun fires 800 "rounds" per minute
With its Rubber Band Machine Gun, or RBmG for short, XYZbot hopes to bring a new level of firepower to living room warfare. The wooden, battery-powered gatling gun is capable of unleashing devastation at a rate of 800 rounds (well, rubber bands) per minute and, should its crowd funding campaign prove successful, it'll ship as a build-it-yourself kit you can put together in half an hour.

Australian company Zeo has developed and patented a glue-free process that creates a strong, versatile new building material out of just cellulose and water. The resulting hardwood-like material known as Zeoform can then be sprayed, molded or shaped into a range of products. And it's not just trees that stand to benefit – Zeoform also promises an eco-friendly alternative to the use of plastics and resins. Read More
As we've previously reported, the use of wood as a building material for larger structures is gaining steam throughout the construction industry. In honor of this year's IBA Hamburg architecture festival, German architectural firm Architekturagentur has created Woodcube: a 5-story carbon-neutral apartment block constructed almost entirely from wood.

Bangladesh is a country with over 150 million residents but more than that, it is the most densely populated country on the planet, with more people per square mile than any other country. The population is on the verge of an economic breakout, especially in the e-commerce sector, and now the European Union is looking to create strong ties with Bangladesh.
If you want to connect a bank account to your Payza account from Canada or Bangladesh, you may have noticed there's a special validation procedure you'll need to complete before you can start using that account for deposits and withdrawals.
Last week the web was rocked with the news of the Heartbleed bug, which affected servers by exploiting a vulnerability in OpenSSL encrypted data (Payza's servers were secure – you can learn more in this post). The vulnerability had particularly severe implications for ecommerce businesses, as it gave hackers access to a server's memory, where sensitive data like usernames, password information, and credit card numbers are stored. Ecommerce businesses can take this opportunity to take another look at their web server security.
Payza, a leading online payment processor and remittance platform, announced the launch of Bank Transfer (ACH) deposits and withdrawals for all Payza members with U.S. bank accounts. The new services are currently the lowest cost deposit and withdrawal methods available to members.

CentoOS router/firewall prob - local network works but router can't access Internet
Okay, I just replaced an old RHEL3 router/firewall with a CentOS 4.4 machine. I have since been unable to get to the Internet (any host/protocol/etc) with the router/firewall box. All the clients in the local network and the VPN network can get out (via nat).
I run an internal DNS/DHCP server separate from the router/firewall. I also run several web, ftp, external dns, etc servers inside the router that I DNAT/SNAT to the outside world. All of these work fine. Every machine on the internal/vpn networks can access the outside world. The only machine that cannot is the router. DNS on the router works because it is using the internal DNS server but pings/traceroutes/whatevers don't work. It would seem to me that this is a gateway problem, but from what I see in my routing table everything looks good. It is important to note that this exact same setup worked fine when running RHEL3. Any help is appreciated. I would like to be able to download updates for this machine. Let's start with a pretty drawing. =================================== Internet || || \/ ISP P2P (xxx.xxx.209.9) || || \/ (xxx.xxx.204.1) Router/Firewall (192.168.1.1) || || ==> DMZ (xxx.xxx.204.62) || \/ Local Network (192.168.1.0/24) The P2P connection is w1g1ppp. The local network is connected to eth0.

Don't know if this'll help - I had a (maybe) similar problem. I could ping external ip addresses, but not get pages to appear on my browser. Try setting your MTU to less than 1500. 1492 seemed to work for me.
Regards, Oz. |
Leave the whole thing aside & tell me, Are you able to ping any domain on internet with its ip ?
Like pinging linuxquestion.org with Code:
ping 126.96.36.199 |
ozymandias: Thanks for the thought on switching the MTU. That wasn't the problem.
amitsharma_26: Nope, can't ping anything except the internal addresses. It doesn't matter wether it is by IP or by name (DNS resolution is working because I am using an internal host for that). Thanks. |
-A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT |
Thanks! I really appreciate your help.. |
You are welcome.
Usually the wayout to troubleshoot such problem is to see the iptables packet counters(watch -n1 "iptables -nvL"). You could have noticed that all the packets which are going out would be incrementing the counters of -j DROP rule while they come back; you should have further checkback those packets to see the actual reason. |

PHX: E. Bledsoe 28 Pts, 5 Reb, 8 Ast, 3 Stl, 2 Blk
PHOENIX -- That dynamic double point guard backcourt of the Phoenix Suns might have had its best game yet.
Goran Dragic scored 29 points, Eric Bledsoe had a career-high 28 and the Suns extended their season-high winning streak to four games by beating the Sacramento Kings 116-107 on Friday night.
"Every game is better," Dragic said. "I know what he's going to do, he knows what I'm going to do. We've got a good feeling about each other and that's really tough for opponents."
Suns coach Jeff Hornacek called it "a great tag team."
"Both of those guys trust each other," Hornacek said. "If they don't really have a play and the other guy is in the view, he can get it to him and make a play."
The Suns' Miles Plumlee had two crucial blocks of DeMarcus Cousins' shots and had four emphatic fourth-quarter dunks for 12 points.
"I don't know if the guys in the league know if he can jump," Dragic said of Plumlee, "but we know."
Isaiah Thomas scored 29 for Sacramento. Rudy Gay added 22 in his first game for the Kings since being acquired this week in a trade with Toronto. Cousins had 15 points and 15 rebounds but shot just 5 of 15 and wouldn't talk to reporters afterward.
It was a testy night for the officials, who called five technical fouls.
Gay was on a losing team in Phoenix for the second time in eight days. Toronto lost to the Suns a week earlier.
"That's the thing with trades in the middle of the season," he said. "You have to learn on the fly."
Sacramento coach Michael Malone lamented his team's lack of defense.
"That is two games in a row where we haven't defended anybody," he said. "You look at Bledsoe and Dragic, what they did to us tonight, I am embarrassed by our defense right now. ... I can't go out there and guard. I wish I could."
Phoenix took the lead for good with a 14-0 third-quarter run that started after Plumlee chased down Cousins from behind on a fast break and blocked the layup try hard off the glass.
"I know I'm really fast, I knew I could catch him," Plumlee said. "It's just a matter of timing it up, and it worked out."
It was a play that drove the energy level in the building up a notch.
"When a player makes a hustle play, it definitely gets the crowd into it, and everybody else gets motivated even more," said Bledsoe, who had eight assists. "Just for Miles to hustle back, it means a lot to the team."
Bledsoe missed the first two games of the season against the Kings, and Sacramento won both.
Dragic's 3-pointer punctuated the 14-0 outburst and Phoenix led 77-65 with 6:13 to play in the third quarter. Dragic and Bledsoe scored five apiece in the run.
But the Kings responded with a 12-4 spurt and, after Thomas' driving layup with 2 seconds to play, trailed 85-82 entering the fourth quarter.
Sacramento never got closer than that again. Gerald Green and Channing Frye sank 3s, then Plumlee blocked Cousins again, leading to Bledsoe's layup that boosted it to 101-91 with 6:43 remaining. The Kings cut it to 105-101 on Thomas' driving layup with 3:11 to go, but Bledsoe hit a 3-pointer, P.J. Tucker scored inside, then Plumlee's final big dunk made it 112-103 with 1:29 to play.
The Kings led by as many as 11 before a 14-3 Suns spurt put Phoenix ahead 49-47 on Dragic's two free throws with 4:07 to go in the second quarter. Sacramento ran off nine consecutive points to go up 58-49 on Thomas' third 3-pointer of the night 1:43 before the break.
Frye's 3-pointer with 1.9 seconds to play cut Sacramento's lead to 61-58 at the half.
Game notes
Bledsoe's previous career high was 27 last Feb. 6 for the Los Angeles Clippers at Orlando. ... Dragic just missed getting the first consecutive 30-point games of his career. He has three 30-point games this season after previously getting three in his entire career.... Technicals were called against Tucker, Hornacek and Marcus Morris of the Suns, and Jason Thompson and Cousins of the Kings. ... Gay has reached double figures in 18 of 19 games this season.

BERKELEY, Calif. -- Pizza returned to the lunchroom menu at a California high school after students chose it over healthier meal offerings.
According to a brief in the New York Post, Berkeley High School had invited local restaurants to sell dishes such as organic pork tacos and hormone-free chicken sandwiches in the hope the students would eat healthier, said the school's principal, Michele Lawrence.
But after sales in the school cafeteria dropped 33 percent last year, pizza was brought back.

Hurricane watch from Surf City, N.C., to Virginia, as Irene expands reach (VIDEO)
Once Irene crosses a narrow reach of Long Island Sound, the storm is forecast to track generally north northeast through western Connecticut and western Massachusetts into Vermont and eastern Quebec.
Although forecasters held out some expectation that Irene could strengthen to a Category 4 storm, at least briefly, en route to North Carolina's outer banks, the current outlook keeps the storm in the Category 3 range, with maximum sustained winds of 111 to 130 m.p.h. Forecasters caution that storms of this magnitude will deliver "devastating damage."
Evacuation orders are being implemented along the North Carolina coast, and they may be required for additional stretches of coastline to the north because of the changes to Irene's forecast track, according to Craig Fugate, who heads the Federal Emergency Management Agency.
Heeding those orders not only can save the lives of evacuees, he notes, but also can safeguard the lives of rescue crews who otherwise might be sent out because conditions are too dangerous to effect a rescue.
During a briefing Thursday, Mr. Fugate recalled overhearing poignant 911 calls during hurricane Ivan in 2004, when he was still head of Florida's Division of Emergency Management. People either tried to ride out the storm or waited too long to leave in hopes of a favorable change in the forecast.

Most people know the stories of Snow White and Sleeping Beauty, but very few know that behind the Brothers Grimm and their fairy tales stood a network of sisters-and mothers, neighbors, and female friends. In this intimate history, Valerie Paradiz tells the real story of the greatest literary collaboration of the nineteenth century, and gives the long-lost narrators of these beloved tales their due. Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm were major German intellects of their time,… (more)

I so badly wanted these shoes to work. They are beautiful shoes, they just ran about a full size too small. I bought a 9½ but I am not even sure that a size 10 would fit, which is the largest size. Sadly, they are going back. These are beautiful shoes!

Life Insurance Advice That Is Easy To Follow
Posted by Eugene D. Smith on Wednesday Aug 27, 2014 Under Digest
Save money by purchasing a policy that covers what you need, and not more. It's important that any life insurance policy you choose will provide for all your family's needs. You shouldn't purchase any coverage beyond what you need.Think carefully about how much life insurance coverage you need. Many insurance companies have calculators to use or you can also do this online. To ensure you'll be covered in any case, you must consider major expenses that your family will incur in the future. These include college tuition, housing costs and medical bills. If you want to save the most amount of money on a life insurance policy, you need to buy the policy from a reputable and financially stable company. There are independent agencies that will research and grade insurance companies. Look for an A rating or higher from these companies.You might not necessarily have to obtain life insurance if there is no one that depends on you financially, such as a spouse Click This Link

Alizey Khan had little hope she'd ever see one of her cherished paintings ever again after it was stolen in July from a Charleston County library. But the Charleston artist got a surprise when a library official called her on Friday to give her the good news: the painting had been mailed back to the library anonymously.
In total, seven pieces of artwork, with a total value of $5,825, had been stolen from exhibits in the Saul Alexander Gallery and the lobby at the Main Branch of the Calhoun Street library, including three of Khan's paintings. This was the final one of hers to be recovered.
Khan, 23, said the library received her painting, "Flame Nebula" by mail from Rock Hill two weeks ago.
"They said it came from the UPS store," she said. "I figured it was out of the city. But I didn't realize it would actually come back to me in such a way."
Nancy Sullivan, the library building manager, opened the package and said she immediately recognized the painting as the stolen piece.
"I was very surprised because it didn't have anything in the box with it, just the art, just packed in bubble wrap and popcorn and that was it," Sullivan said.
Khan retrieved the painting from the library on Friday afternoon, when she tweeted: "It is quite damaged but I can fix it by sanding down and re-coating the top layer!"
The painting had been part of a display of artwork at the main branch library when it was stolen on July 30.
A man with a backpack snagged the paintings, took off, then hawked the stolen works to a Reid Street business owner, Charleston police said. Then, with the thefts all over the news, the thief allegedly strolled into the library for a second helping of artwork.
Investigators arrested Robert Wayne Russell, 57, of Meeting Street later that same day and charged him with grand larceny in connection with the theft of seven paintings valued at nearly $6,000, police said.
With all her stolen paintings returned, Khan plans on re-displaying the pieces in her next show at the Coastal Community Foundation starting on Oct. 17.
"I'm going to figure out a locking mechanisms," she said.

text: Grammy Nomination 2005 Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik, Bestenliste 2/2004 Fono Forum, Empfehlung des Monats Gramophone, Editors Choice This is a landmark recording and a courageous venture. It is probably the first devoted to Machauts motets, containing no fewer than 18 of the 23 that survive. It is certainly the first to present them in the order in which Machaut himself presented them in his own manuscripts. And the performances are of a truly mandarin refinement. Here are The Hilliard Ensemble with goodness knows how many combined years of experience performing this kind of music in public; they are not just on the top of their form but also constantly showing the fruits of that experience. David Fallows, Gramophone Recordings of the Mass are infrequent, and albums drawn from other corners of Machoauts copious output are rarer still. The Hilliard Ensemble helps to redress that neglect with a new selection of 18 motets, secular and sacred songs, in French and Latin. The five Hilliard singer render these pieces beautifully, in the smoothly blended sound that has become the ensembles trademark. The conjecture the Hilliard singers provide has less to do with historical re-creation than with bringing this marriage of text and music to life for listeners attuned to modern notions of tone. As it happens, the transposition works extremely well. Allan Kozinn, The New York Times The Hilliard allow their performances to unfold at their own, sometimes leisurely, pace; the singers tone is wonderfully even and the dissonances are allowed to pass by naturally without special emphasis. Every number here has the same unflashy polish, and it is not surprising that this disc should have been released to celebrate the Hilliards 30th anniversary this year. These are performances full of insights derived from long experience of singing such elusive music, yet ones that wear experience and musical scholarship lightly. The decisions about the way in which the music should be realised and the texts delivered, always vital considerations when dealing with the works of this period, are made without fuss and seem utterly natural. It is a marvellous survey. Andrew Clements, The Guardian If I tell you that my favourite disc of recent months contains over an hours worth of three-minute bursts of the same kind of music, seven centuries old and built on principles in no way related to anything else in our repertory experience, you may want to change stations but wait! Know first that the disc is on ECM, one of the more trustworthy of surviving classical labels, and that the performers are the Hilliard Ensemble, that lively and questing group countertenors, tenors, baritone whose lust for stylistic exploration is apparently boundless. here they sing a collection of motets by the fourteenth-century poet, philosopher, musician and churchman Guillaume de Machaut, music whose strange, distant beauty is much enhanced by the typical ECM treatment. We cannot, of course, hear this music with fourteenth-century ears, but the weight of history can be a marvellous enablement for discovering a whole new level of freshness in this music. Is it so wrong to hear Arvo Pärt or Bartók or Charles Ives in the cross-references and false cadences in Machaut? It would be equally wrong to hear this music as any kind of primitive, to miss the high level of poetic daring in the textual or musical crossovers, the sheer beauty in the sinuous melodic lines. This is a hypnotic, stupendous disc. Alan Rich, LA Weekly The musics florid and rhythmically complex contrapuntal lines, each setting different words, may lack the immediate appeal of the Mass, but the members of the Hilliard Ensemble have complete affinity with its style and the vocal virtuosity to convey Machauts deeply felt emotions with a conviction and intensity that bring out the musics true greatness. Elizabeth Roche, Daily Telegraph Voici les cinq Britanniques tout occupés à sublimer les Motets de Guillaume de Machaut. Lisibilité absolue, expressivité poussée à lextrême : grâce aux voix irréelles des Hilliard, la science des entrelacs, lalchimie mélodique du génial compositeur-poète bouleverse comme jamais. Tribune de Genève Die isorhythmischen Motetten Guillaume de Machauts verkörpern die höchste Kunst mittelalterlicher Mehrstimmigkeit. ... Ein faszinierendes Mit- und Nebeneinander von verschiedenen Sujets und musikalischen Linien, das zu aufmerksamen Hinhören zwingt. Das Hilliard-Ensemble führt das fragile Gebilde aus strenger Linearität und emotionalem Ausdruck zu betörender Wirkung. Vom Geflecht der fünf Männerstimmen, die sich klanglich aneinander reiben, ohne je den übergeordneten strukturellen Atem aus den Augen zu verlieren, vermag man sich nur schwer zu lösen. Christoph Ballmer, Neue Zürcher Zeitung Die 18 hier eingespielten Werke lassen Guillaumes künstlerische Physiognomie deutlich zu Tage treten: Sie zeichnen das Portrait eines sensiblen, feinnervigen Lyrikers, dem es gelingt, innerhalb der hochartifiziellen isorhythmischen Strukturen eine Klangsprache von zarter Expressivität erblühen zu lassen. ... Dass die Aufnahme der meist zäsurarm voranwiegenden Motetten eine ganz eigentümliche, sinnlich-reizvolle Wirkung entfalten kann, liegt nicht zuletzt auch an den exzellenten Hilliards, die die unverkennbare Klanglust und fremdartig wirkende Dissonanzfreude der Musik mit ihrem typischen Ensemblesound genüsslich auskosten. Marcus Stäbler, Fono Forum

With exactly a year to go until the Rugby World Cup final, the next 12 months will be as vital for England as those that preceeded the final in Paris three years ago – a match that France won. We speak to World Cup-winner Will Greenwood for his views on the year ahead, and pick out our hottest tickets for the upcoming action
Investec Autumn International Series
England's opening fixture in the autumn internationals is one that sends a shiver down the spine of even the most hardened rugby fan. When the New Zealand team run out onto the pitch at Twickenham in front of 82,000 pumped-up fans on Saturday 6 November, there'll be silence. You'll be able to hear a pin drop as the men in black perform the most feared precursor to a match in sport. Watching the haka live – a Maori war dance performed by the All Blacks for over a century – is one of those moments in sport that you just don't forget. The game is a huge test for England. Having not beaten the All Blacks since the build-up to the 2003 World Cup, the result will say a great deal about their chances for the tournament in 12 months' time. And like all games in the autumn series, it's England's chance to compete with the best teams in the world on home soil. 'The autumn internationals are fantastic for spectators – it's the best rugby in the world,' says Will Greenwood, World Cup winner and ex-British Lion. 'All the main teams are there to win, and win well. You stick your 50p in the tombola and on any one weekend you'll draw out a ticket to watch the best players on the planet.' With there being no autumn Test series next year due to the timing of the World Cup, this will be the last time to catch the southern hemisphere sides playing at Twickenham until 2012. And with less than a month until the series kicks off – and general admission tickets all but sold out – last-minute hospitality packages are the best way to guarantee a seat. Aside from New Zealand on 6 November, we'd recommend taking a look at the England v Samoa game on 20 November. With the date marking the seventh anniversary of the World Cup win in Sydney, the match is a milestone for England fans. Great prices are being offered for the fixture, with fine dining packages available from Keith Prowse in its pitch-side restaurants, Obolensky's and Wakefield's, starting from £379 per person. It's also opening up Rugby House, which comes complete with a lively rugby club-esque atmosphere, with packages starting at £279. Also appealing is the price of a ticket to the England v Australia game with Mike Burton, which comes in at £495 for lunch and a high-profile speaker.
With all the northern hemisphere sides so evenly matched at the moment, next year's tournament will be one of the toughest yet. 'In a World Cup year the 6 Nations are always massive,' says Greenwood. 'It's all about finding momentum to take to the big event.' The tournament is significant for several reasons. Firstly, players from all six teams will be competing for a place on the plane to New Zealand and, secondly, the tournament marks the inaugural match at Ireland's awesome new Aviva Stadium – the reincarnated Lansdowne Road. Ireland lift the lid on the Aviva on 13 February against France. A guaranteed 52,000 sell-out, it'll be the first time Ireland have used the ground in a Test match since moving from their temporary home at Croke Park four years ago. With Les Bleus giving it a dress rehearsal, England will be the second team to play there on the final day in a potential Grand Slam decider on Saturday 19 March. A ticket to Dublin for the match is arguably the corporate invite of the year. England Rugby Travel (tel: 0844 788 5000) has packages for the trip, offering two nights' accommodation and guaranteed seats for £649. If you consider that general admission tickets have all but gone and Dublin's hotels will be cranking up the prices for the weekend, you'd be hard pushed to find a better deal. Back on home turf, the biggest game at Twickenham will inevitably be against France on 26 February. 'Without a doubt, England v France is the game of the year,' says Mike Burton's head of sales and marketing, Justin Hopwood. 'It's always big, but with what's happened between the two sides in the last few years, it's going to be massive'. As Hopwood suggests, there was already a good helping of healthy competition between the two sides, but with so many English players flocking to Gallic soil to make the most of the higher wages, ties between the players are greater than ever. With the game kicking off at 5pm, hospitality will be taking on a different format to the more usual 3pm starts. Guests will begin arriving later in the day, meaning a more relaxed build up to the match. The food offering after the game will change too, with Mike Burton's off-site Chase Bridge facility dishing out a delicious, beer-sponging lasagne. Keith Prowse is offering five on-site facilities for England v France, ranging from the £679-per-person Rugby House, to the £879 Players' Lounge – the stadium's flagship facility, where guests have the opportunity to quiz the players after the match, still bruised from battle. The best off-site option is from Mike Burton at Chase Bridge just a couple of hundred yards from the stadium. At £645 for the fine dining package, it's cheaper, but still of the highest quality.

The rugby World Cup next year will be one of sport's unique experiences. No other nation has rugby in its blood like the Kiwis as Will Greenwood says: 'New Zealand is an amazing country; it's so diverse. And, boy, do they love rugby. The stadia are dotted all over the country so travelling to watch matches is a great way to see the land.' It seems that many fans agree, with England Rugby Travel reporting package sales up 37% from the last tournament in the first six weeks. It's the trip of a lifetime that many fans just can't miss out on. The entry level package starts at £1,989, which includes 12 nights' hotel accommodation, transport to and between Dunedin and Auckland, and tickets to England's last two group games. To watch all of their games – right through to the final if they make it – takes 46 nights and comes in at £13,999. Although England's form is nowhere near the dominance Clive Woodward's men showed in the build-up to the 2003 win, Martin Johnson's boys certainly aren't to be written off. Playing more tournament-format rugby in Europe gives us the edge over the southern hemisphere teams when it comes to the World Cup, which showed in France when England were narrowly beaten in the final after a pretty sorry year. With some of the hottest talent around, it's worth looking out for some of the names set to do big things in New Zealand this time next year. 'Tom Croft has potential to be one of the best in the world,' says Greenwood. 'If Phil Dowson and Chris Robshaw have good years, we've got a lot to be excited about.' And what does Greenwood think of our chances of lifting the trophy again? 'It'll be one of the toughest campaigns yet, but I can see us getting to the semi-final, no problem.'
Will Greenwood is available for hosting, after-dinner and keynote speeches. For more information on Greenwood or other rugby talent, contact Benchmark Sport on 020 7240 7700

Coronation chicken salad
(Read article summary)Coronation Chicken, as Poulet Reine Elizabeth became known, was created as a balance between necessary thrift and needed elegance.
The Runaway Spoon
Last weekend, Queen Elizabeth II celebrated her Diamond Jubilee – 60 years on the throne. When she was crowned (she became Queen when her father died in 1952, but the coronation was June 5, 1953), Britain was still recovering from the wartime devastation, and rationing was still in effect for many foods. But it was, of course, necessary to create and elegant meal to serve to the guests of Her Majesty.
Coronation Chicken, as Poulet Reine Elizabeth became known, was created as a balance between necessary thrift and needed elegance. It was, originally, a cold poached chicken dish with a curried mayonnaise sauce. I have been doing research about the origins of Coronation Chicken and found that there is some dispute.
It is credited to Constance Spry, a famous English florist, but now thought to have been the creation of her partner chef Rosemary Hume (which seems more likely). But then, there was a dish of chicken in curry sauce served at the jubilee celebrations of George V in 1935. I even read that the idea was thought perfect for Britons to create at home to eat in front of the television watching the coronation.
But truthfully, I didn't find the story as interesting as the dish. From its royal beginnings, Coronation Chicken has become a staple of the British menu, though it devolved over the years to a rather sorry sandwich filling. You'll find this flaccid, flavorless version in café and sandwich bars across the country. Some more upscale chains do a pretty decent version, but its reputation has definitely suffered (I have even seen it as a sandwich filling from a shelf-stable jar). In my travels, I have encountered some truly awful versions. But many Britons make Coronation Chicken at home, and an English food magazine recently created a Twitter thread asking readers about the best way to make Coronation Chicken. The answers were so varied, it shows that this is truly a dish that has been taken to heart and transformed to family tastes.

RALEIGH (AP) -- Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton says she's better prepared to handle the nation's economy than presumed Republican nominee John McCain.
Clinton criticized the Arizona senator for opposing government intervention in the nation's credit and mortgage crisis during a stop at a community college in Raleigh.
She says the government needs to help displaced workers.
Clinton says the government seems to be more focused on how people lose their jobs than how people can find new jobs. She also says there's been too little effort to help people get new skills while they have their existing jobs.
The New York senator says Pell Grants should be extended to workers enrolled in education programs designed to upgrade their skills.
North Carolina's primary is May 6.

Steed back in favour - and back in the Sunderland team
STEED Malbranque returns from an enforced exile to take his place in the Sunderland starting line-up for this evening's Premier League home game with Bolton Wanderers. Malbranque was axed from the squad for the recent goalless draw with Fulham after a breach of club discipline in a nightclub. The Belgian's days as a Sunderland player had looked to be numbered, but with his options limited because of injury, Black Cats boss Steve Bruce has opted to restore him to the squad. Malbranque replaces Kieran Richardson in the only change to the side that drew with the Cottagers nine days ago. Lee Cattermole had been an injury doubt because of a hamstring injury, but the Stockton-born midfielder has been passed fit to partner Lorik Cana at the heart of midfield. SUNDERLAND (4-4-2): Gordon; Hutton, Turner, Mensah, Ferdinand; Campbell, Cana, Cattermole, Malbranque; Jones, Bent. Subs: Carson (gk), Bardsley, McCartney, Zenden, Da Silva, Kilgallon, Benjani. BOLTON (4-4-2): Jaaskelainen; Steinsson, Ricketts, Knight, Robinson; Lee, Wilshere, Muamba, Gardner; Elmander, Davies. Subs: Al Habsi (gk), Samuel, Taylor, Riga, Klasnic, O'Brien, Weiss.

On Monday, Clemens handed a written statement to reporters at the Houston Astros spring training facility in Kissimmee, Fla., where he is serving as a special instructor for the team.
"Yes, that is sad news. I had heard over time that she was trying to get peace and direction in her life. The few times that I had met her and her manager/agent they were extremely nice."
McCready also was engaged to actor Dean Cain in 1997, but their relationship fell apart as well.
Her troubles weren't just romantic. Over time she was arrested for fraudulently obtaining prescription drugs, probation violation, misdemeanor assault of her mother Gayle Inge and other problems.
In 2010, after a stint on Dr. Drew Pinsky's "Celebrity Rehab 3" where she was treated for "love addiction," she told The Associated Press she may have finally found love and the strength to get her life back on track.
Pinsky, who had no comment Sunday, called McCready an "angel" in the season finale and expressed hope she would continue to seek treatment in a later interview. McCready suffered a seizure in one of the show's scarier moments. Tests showed she had suffered brain damage, something she attributed to her abuse at the hands of McKnight.
McCready is the fifth celebrity to pass away since appearing on Pinsky's show and the third from Season 3. Alice in Chains bassist Mike Starr and "Real World" participant Joey Kovar both died of overdoses.
She entered her relationship with Wilson, a producer and musician who was 34 when he died last month, a short time later. She'd just met Wilson and talked openly about their relationship in the 2010 interview. Wilson declined to speak on the record.
With a publicist, reporters, cameras, makeup artists and musicians swirling around her during a press day for her last album, "I'm Still Here," McCready fended off questions about a sex tape and said she and Wilson started out as friends.
"And I've never had a relationship like that before where we started completely as friends," she said. "It turned into friends really caring about each other and then it turned into love and I've never had that happen before."
Things didn't remain calm for long, though. Unhappy with custody arrangements, McCready took her older son from her mother, the boy's legal guardian, in late 2011. She fled to Arkansas without permission over what she called child abuse fears. Authorities eventually found McCready hiding in a home without permission and took the boy into custody.
She and Wilson had their son in April 2012, and she regained custody of Zander in December. But Wilson's death appears to have led to another dark period.
"I met Mindy at 23 coming off of a big record, and from knowing her as personal as I did back then, sometimes being famous can hurt you," McKnight said in a phone interview Monday from Tampa, Fla. "I think she was too young. I think that she was having some personal issues in her life and her family anyways, and when she got famous ... she started mixing booze and pills and the negativity, it took the best of her."
Music Writer Chris Talbott reported from Nashville, Tenn. Sports Writer Noah Trister, in Kissimmee, Fla., contributed to this report.

Show Hire, the Milford, England-based PA rental company, has made a significant investment in Electro-Voice loudspeaker systems in order to stay abreast of its increasing workload at outdoor events, notably high-profile equestrian competitions such as the Burghley and Badminton Horse Trials, and county shows.
Show Hire has carved a niche market for itself in 'greenfield site PA rental,' where temporary venues are created for large-scale public events; every cable has to be dug underground and every loudspeaker mounted on a removable pole, and the entire site must be returned to a green field after use.
A good example of this is the Burghley Horse Trials, held in the park of historic Burghley House near Stamford, where Show Hire debuted its new EV system. Sponsored by Land Rover, this event is one of the most prestigious of its kind in Europe, attracting a competition field that includes world eventing champion Zara Phillips, and crowds of 120,000 over four days.
Nick Chubb of Show Hire purchased a number of Electro-Voice Zx100T loudspeakers and PA2400T amplifiers from Shuttlesound, after a successful test-drive of the equipment at the Badminton Horse Trials earlier in the year. At Burghley, the new 100V line compact cabinets were mounted on poles around the large arena, where the dressage and showjumping elements of the three-day eventing competition are staged, along with demonstrations, workshops and prize-giving ceremonies.
"Everything we do at Burghley is temporary," explains Nick Chubb. "We can't even concrete a pole into the ground. This is a total greenfield site, and all the cables we use here will have to be taken up at the end of the event."
The very nature of a greenfield site creates lots of possibilities for error. "We spend a big chunk of our time saving our equipment from other people!" says Nick. "When it came to choosing loudspeakers for such work, we had to consider how robust they were. These are all-weather conditions; the rain gets into equipment, the winds drive at the speakers. When it's sunny and hot, we get the opposite problems, but the Zx cabinets have proved themselves to be up to the job.
"With the EV speakers, we've got four times more power and much better bass response than we used to have in the past. This is especially important for when the system is handling music in the intervals. Essentially, we've got 4x Zx100Ts per side of the arena, which holds 10,000. These act as one zone, and the commentator has a simple zone control and switch relay system which allows him to control his own content, and direct what goes out to where across the whole showground."
Show Hire has been at Burghley for the last 13 years, and watched its remit grow year on year. With the cross-country course, and two arenas, the Show Hire team is now responsible for 7 km of cable runs for loudspeakers, all the telephone systems on site, and the showpiece PA installation in the main arena. "Buying our new Electro-Voice inventory gives us, and our clients, immediate improvements in sound quality and level," says Chubb. "However it also gives Show Hire the potential to bid for other, bigger events, so we hope it will open a few doors for us."

Swans reject Bodde request
03 Jun 2008 - 07:28:15
Swansea City have rejected a transfer request handed in by Dutch midfielder Ferrie Bodde, following recent interest from Derby County.
The 26-year-old was a major player for the Swans as they won the League One title last season, having proved to be an outstanding bargain after joining from Den Haag for just £50,000.
City chairman Huw Jenkins told the club's official website: "Over the last few days Ferrie submitted a transfer request which we turned down. We will try our best to try and make sure he stays with us.
"We took a gamble to bring him over from Holland and gave him his chance to perform on the big stage. So from that point of view it's disappointing he now wants to leave.
"Ferrie signed a three-year contract when he joined us last year and, until that changes, he will remain our player.
"The manager says he thinks Ferrie is worth £2million and I think if a player is intent on leaving and we get the right valuation, then we might have to look at it.
"But nobody has met our valuation on a player that we think can be playing in the top four of the Premier League."
