Women's Rugby World Cup: England win 'surreal' - Gary Street
England's 21-9 victory over Canada in the Women's Rugby World Cup final felt "surreal" and a "bit like a dream", said head coach Gary Street.
Centre Emily Scarratt scored 16 points as England, who had lost the last three finals, won in Paris to claim the title for the first time since 1994.
"I still can't quite believe we're world champions," said England vice-captain Sarah Hunter.
"We're just so proud of everyone involved," added Street.
"We've been on a long journey but to have that trophy makes it worthwhile. It's a pretty amazing feeling."
Full-back Danielle Waterman scored a first-half try and Scarratt crossed late on as England won the tournament for only the second time, having beaten the United States in the 1994 final.
"You dream about being an England captain and lifting the World Cup," said skipper Katy McLean. "That's something I've just gone and done."
She added: "It's a team sport and you have such a bond within the group. I've never felt that as much as I have with this group of players and staff. Every single one is a world champion, it's amazing."
England had lost the last three finals to New Zealand - in 2002, 2006 and 2010 - but their experience proved decisive this time as they beat a Canada side playing in their first.
"It perhaps wasn't our best performance and it didn't quite click at times, but the true team showed that, when we're under pressure, we keep going, picking each other up off the floor," added Hunter.
"Our defence was simply outstanding."
Prime Minister David Cameron was among those paying tribute, tweeting: "Huge congratulations to England women on their first World Cup triumph in 20 years. Your country is so proud of you."
England's 2003 men's Rugby World Cup winners Jason Robinson, Lawrence Dallaglio and Richard Hill also congratulated Street's side.
Former England captain Dallaglio called the team "inspirational", while ex-England back rower Richard Hill tweeted: "Congratulations ladies. A proud day. I'm sure Tuesday training sessions feel worth it now!"
England were in a strong position to win after two Scarratt penalties and Waterman's try put them 11-0 ahead after 31 minutes.
Canada's Magali Harvey kicked a penalty shortly before half-time and then another two after the break to make the score 11-9.
Even though Scarratt was successful with another penalty shortly afterwards, it was only when she scored a converted try in the closing minutes that England began to look safe.
Street added: "Huge credit to Canada as well. I thought that they were excellent and made it extremely tough for us."
Women's Rugby World Cup: England's winners 'back to work'
England's victorious rugby union squad returned home from Paris on Monday after securing their first World Cup title in 20 years, but, for many of the players, it will be back to full-time work within days.
Among them is Marlie Packer, a plumbing and heating engineer who will swap her boots for overalls before the week is out.
"I've got two days hopefully to let this all sink in and then it's back to work," said the 24-year-old flanker. "I'll be heading back to London first and then down to Yeovil to see the family."
But at least the Wasps forward, capped 28 times by her country, will have a World Cup winner's medal on her CV alongside her day-to-day career following Sunday's 21-9 success over Canada.
"The boss emailed me on the morning of the final to wish me the best of luck, so they've been celebrating the success as much as I have," she added.
Packer's story is a familiar tale. The women's game is yet to turn professional or benefit from the boost in sponsorship and media profile experienced by the likes of women's cricket, netball and football.
Danielle Waterman, playing in her third World Cup, quit her job as head of coaching on the apprenticeship scheme at Gloucestershire's Hartpury College in order to focus on the tournament in France.
"The support I've had from my family's been absolutely huge," said the 29-year-old full-back, daughter of Bath legend Jim Waterman.
"My mum's been there for me emotionally.
"I've had a real rollercoaster with injuries over the last four years and to have her here along with my dad, my brothers and my boyfriend has given me that extra boost to go out and play well.
"It was definitely worth it quitting work. As a team, we've been on a massive journey and this has been coming for a number of years."
Later this week, captain Katy McLean will be back in the classroom preparing her primary school pupils at Bexhill Academy in Sunderland for a new school term.
The fly-half, 28, believes her side's win will do great things for the sport.
"I know when I get back to school, I'm going to have everyone in my class out there playing rugby," she said.
"There might be some reading and writing as well in between, but I think we can inspire the next generation.
"The support's been absolutely phenomenal. I've had messages during the tournament from children as young as three and five."
Vice-captain Sarah Hunter, a university development officer with the Rugby Football Union, admits being crowned a world champion makes the sacrifices of juggling full-time work with sport very worthwhile.
"We train harder than anyone, getting up when it's dark outside and people are tucked up in bed, then working late to fit in a session at lunchtime," she said.
"But there's absolutely no regrets about anything we do and moments like this make it all worth it."
L'équipe d'Angleterre de rugby à XV féminin est une sélection des meilleures joueuses anglaises. Depuis son premier match en 1987, elle a remporté 10 Tournoi des six nations et deux Coupes du monde en 1994 et 2014.
En 1983, le Women's Rugby Football Union (WRFU) est créé pour diriger le rugby féminin dans toute la Grande-Bretagne. Pour leurs premiers matchs internationaux en 1986, les Anglaises sont donc associées aux Galloises et aux Écossaises dans l'équipe de Grande-Bretagne. Peu à peu, de 1987 à 1990, cette équipe se divise par nations et l'équipe d'Angleterre de rugby à XV féminin joue et remporte son premier match en le 5 avril 1987 contre l'équipe du pays de Galles. Elle reste invaincue pendant quatre ans et perd son premier contre les États-Unis en finale de la première Coupe du monde féminine en 1991.
En 1993, l'Angleterre remporte la première Canada Cup puis gagne la deuxième Coupe du monde en 1994 en prenant leur revanche en finale face aux États-Unis. En cette année 1994, le Rugby Football Union for Women (RFUW) est fondé pour gérer le rugby féminin sur l'Angleterre seule, en lieu et place du WRFU. Par la suite, les Anglaises remportent les deux premières éditions du Tournoi britannique de rugby à XV en 1996 et 1997 ainsi que le Championnat européen des nations 1997.
En 1998, elles s'inclinent en demi-finale de la Coupe du monde face aux futures vainqueurs, les Néo-zélandaises, et terminent à la troisième place. De 1999 à 2001, elle enchainent trois Grands chelems consécutifs dans le Tournoi des cinq nations. Le Tournoi se joue à six à partir de 2002 et les Anglaises s'inclinent face à la France et terminent à la deuxième place de la compétition. C'est également la place qu'elles occuperont deux mois plus tard en Coupe du monde après une nouvelle défaite face à la Nouvelle-Zélande.
La Coupe du monde 2006 ressemble à la précédente et elles subissent une nouvelle fois la suprématie des Néo-zélandaises en perdant 25-17 en finale. Entre temps, elles réalisent de nouveaux Grands chelems dans le Tournoi en 2003 et 2006, puis plus tard en 2007 et 2008. En 2009, elles remportent une nouvelle fois le tournoi malgré une défaite de justesse, 16-15, contre le équipe du pays de Galles. Elles gagnent également les deux premières éditions de la Nations Cup disputées en 2008 en Angleterre et en 2009 au Canada.

With a huge red lei around his neck and a wide grin that could have stretched across Oahu, Larry Fitzgerald held up the gleaming, silver MVP trophy. It sparkled in the sunshine as much as his game.
The only problem: It wasn't the Lombardi Trophy.
Fitzgerald caught five passes for 81 yards and two touchdowns, 44-year-old John Carney kicked two fourth-quarter field goals, and the NFC rallied to a 30-21 victory over the AFC. The Arizona Cardinals' All-Pro receiver, coming off a record-breaking postseason and a spectacular Super Bowl in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, earned MVP honors.
But he said the victory over the AFC, which featured three members of the Steelers' defense, didn't ease the pain from the Super Bowl.
"No, not one bit," he said.
Fitzgerald also took home keys to a new Cadillac.
"I'm just glad we won, that's the most important thing," he said.
On a sweltering day, with 60 percent humidity, Kurt Warner started for the NFC and played just one series before making way for Brees. Warner was just 1-of-2 for 8 yards.
"I would've liked to have won last week and not this week, if I could switch them out," he said.
Fitzgerald caught a 46-yard scoring pass from Drew Brees before the half and a 2-yard TD pass from Eli Manning for the go-ahead score with 4:07 to play.
The NFC defense took care of the rest.
Manning, making his Pro Bowl debut, was 8-of-14 for 111 yards. While big brother Peyton had better stats, 12-of-17 for 151 yards and a TD, Eli got the win.
"He didn't play the whole second half, so it's not about beating my brother, it's just about having fun," Eli Manning said.
The Manning brothers were the first quarterback brothers in Pro Bowl history. And Carney, who was a perfect 3-for-3, became the oldest player in the game's history. He booted a 48-yarder with 2:06 remaining to make it 27-21 and sealed the win with a 26-yarder with 32 seconds to go.
Sunday's all-star game ended a successful 30-year run at Aloha Stadium, with a sellout every year. The Pro Bowl will be played in Miami next year, a week before the Super Bowl. The NFL, which has been looking to increase the profile of the game, hopes to bring the game back to Hawaii.
The players, who spent most of the week by the beach and sipping umbrella-adorned mai tais, were pretty unanimous in wanting the game to return.
For Warner, the question now is whether this was his final game in the NFL or, as a free agent, will he opt to continue playing at age 38?
"I don't know right now," Warner said. "Again, when I have a feeling one way or the other, I'll let everyone else know. I don't have a time frame. This is the first time right now that I am done having to think about football for a while, and I'm going to enjoy that part of it, enjoy my wife, enjoy my kids and then we'll make a decision as soon as we can."
The AFC was looking to hula dance into halftime with a comfortable 14-3 cushion after Kerry Collins connected with Owen Daniels on a 9-yard scoring pass with 28 seconds left in the half.
However, that was more than enough the time for the NFC, with all its weapons.
The NFC took over at its 45 with 19 seconds left after a nice kickoff return by Clifton Smith. They ran two plays before Larry Fitzgerald hauled in Brees' 46-yard bomb with fellow All-Pro Cortland Finnegan on his back as time expired to pull the NFC to 14-10.
It made for two huge end-of-the-half plays in consecutive weeks for Fitzgerald. But this time, rather than trying -- and failing -- to chase down James Harrison on his 100-yard interception returned for a TD, Fitzgerald was the one celebrating.
Fitzgerald also beat Finnegan on his second score.
"These guys are such elite players, it doesn't take much time to get in the groove with these players," Fitzgerald said. "These guys were great."
The usual high-scoring affair surprisingly also featured plenty of defense. Despite rules such as no blitzing linebackers and safeties, the quarterbacks were feeling the heat, at times buried by the defensive line. None of the passes had any room for error on throws against the speedy defensive backs.
The AFC had a chance to take the lead late, but Julius Peppers got in the way. Down by six, the AFC started its drive on its 20 with 4:03 remaining and got to midfield. Peppers then swatted a pass by Jay Cutler with his left hand and came up with the interception that led to Carney's 48-yard field goal.
There were three straight drives ending with a turnover in a span of about 2 minutes in the third quarter alone, including two by Collins.
The second led to the NFC's first lead of the game, 17-14, late in the third quarter. Jared Allen stripped Collins from behind and scooped up the bouncing ball at the AFC 10. All-Pro Adrian Peterson, last year's Pro Bowl MVP, finished it off with a 10-yard run.
Pinned on its 4, the AFC came out firing behind the league MVP. Peyton Manning completed passes of 20, 18, 22, 4, and 6 yards to five players before hitting Tony Gonzalez for the score on a high-arcing, 19-yard pass.
Gonzalez easily outmaneuvered Seattle linebacker Julian Peterson before hauling in the pass and tiptoeing into the end zone. Gonzalez, also an All-Pro, finished with six catches for 98 yards.
On the ensuing series, Robert Mathis stripped Brees and gave possession back to the AFC.
Manning then completed a 22-yarder to Colts teammate Reggie Wayne before the NFC finally started playing some defense.
After the AFC reached the NFC's 31, Peppers squashed Manning -- and gave him a hand to get back up. It is, after all, the Pro Bowl.

Women's Rugby World Cup: England win 'surreal' - Gary Street
England's 21-9 victory over Canada in the Women's Rugby World Cup final felt "surreal" and a "bit like a dream", said head coach Gary Street.
Centre Emily Scarratt scored 16 points as England, who had lost the last three finals, won in Paris to claim the title for the first time since 1994.
"I still can't quite believe we're world champions," said England vice-captain Sarah Hunter.
"We're just so proud of everyone involved," added Street.
"We've been on a long journey but to have that trophy makes it worthwhile. It's a pretty amazing feeling."
Full-back Danielle Waterman scored a first-half try and Scarratt crossed late on as England won the tournament for only the second time, having beaten the United States in the 1994 final.
"You dream about being an England captain and lifting the World Cup," said skipper Katy McLean. "That's something I've just gone and done."
She added: "It's a team sport and you have such a bond within the group. I've never felt that as much as I have with this group of players and staff. Every single one is a world champion, it's amazing."
England had lost the last three finals to New Zealand - in 2002, 2006 and 2010 - but their experience proved decisive this time as they beat a Canada side playing in their first.
"It perhaps wasn't our best performance and it didn't quite click at times, but the true team showed that, when we're under pressure, we keep going, picking each other up off the floor," added Hunter.
"Our defence was simply outstanding."
Prime Minister David Cameron was among those paying tribute, tweeting: "Huge congratulations to England women on their first World Cup triumph in 20 years. Your country is so proud of you."
England's 2003 men's Rugby World Cup winners Jason Robinson, Lawrence Dallaglio and Richard Hill also congratulated Street's side.
Former England captain Dallaglio called the team "inspirational", while ex-England back rower Richard Hill tweeted: "Congratulations ladies. A proud day. I'm sure Tuesday training sessions feel worth it now!"
England were in a strong position to win after two Scarratt penalties and Waterman's try put them 11-0 ahead after 31 minutes.
Canada's Magali Harvey kicked a penalty shortly before half-time and then another two after the break to make the score 11-9.
Even though Scarratt was successful with another penalty shortly afterwards, it was only when she scored a converted try in the closing minutes that England began to look safe.
Street added: "Huge credit to Canada as well. I thought that they were excellent and made it extremely tough for us."
Women's Rugby World Cup: England's winners 'back to work'
England's victorious rugby union squad returned home from Paris on Monday after securing their first World Cup title in 20 years, but, for many of the players, it will be back to full-time work within days.
Among them is Marlie Packer, a plumbing and heating engineer who will swap her boots for overalls before the week is out.
"I've got two days hopefully to let this all sink in and then it's back to work," said the 24-year-old flanker. "I'll be heading back to London first and then down to Yeovil to see the family."
But at least the Wasps forward, capped 28 times by her country, will have a World Cup winner's medal on her CV alongside her day-to-day career following Sunday's 21-9 success over Canada.
"The boss emailed me on the morning of the final to wish me the best of luck, so they've been celebrating the success as much as I have," she added.
Packer's story is a familiar tale. The women's game is yet to turn professional or benefit from the boost in sponsorship and media profile experienced by the likes of women's cricket, netball and football.
Danielle Waterman, playing in her third World Cup, quit her job as head of coaching on the apprenticeship scheme at Gloucestershire's Hartpury College in order to focus on the tournament in France.
"The support I've had from my family's been absolutely huge," said the 29-year-old full-back, daughter of Bath legend Jim Waterman.
"My mum's been there for me emotionally.
"I've had a real rollercoaster with injuries over the last four years and to have her here along with my dad, my brothers and my boyfriend has given me that extra boost to go out and play well.
"It was definitely worth it quitting work. As a team, we've been on a massive journey and this has been coming for a number of years."
Later this week, captain Katy McLean will be back in the classroom preparing her primary school pupils at Bexhill Academy in Sunderland for a new school term.
The fly-half, 28, believes her side's win will do great things for the sport.
"I know when I get back to school, I'm going to have everyone in my class out there playing rugby," she said.
"There might be some reading and writing as well in between, but I think we can inspire the next generation.

L'équipe d'Angleterre de rugby à XV féminin est une sélection des meilleures joueuses anglaises. Depuis son premier match en 1987, elle a remporté 10 Tournoi des six nations et deux Coupes du monde en 1994 et 2014.
En 1983, le Women's Rugby Football Union (WRFU) est créé pour diriger le rugby féminin dans toute la Grande-Bretagne. Pour leurs premiers matchs internationaux en 1986, les Anglaises sont donc associées aux Galloises et aux Écossaises dans l'équipe de Grande-Bretagne. Peu à peu, de 1987 à 1990, cette équipe se divise par nations et l'équipe d'Angleterre de rugby à XV féminin joue et remporte son premier match en le 5 avril 1987 contre l'équipe du pays de Galles. Elle reste invaincue pendant quatre ans et perd son premier contre les États-Unis en finale de la première Coupe du monde féminine en 1991.
En 1993, l'Angleterre remporte la première Canada Cup puis gagne la deuxième Coupe du monde en 1994 en prenant leur revanche en finale face aux États-Unis. En cette année 1994, le Rugby Football Union for Women (RFUW) est fondé pour gérer le rugby féminin sur l'Angleterre seule, en lieu et place du WRFU. Par la suite, les Anglaises remportent les deux premières éditions du Tournoi britannique de rugby à XV en 1996 et 1997 ainsi que le Championnat européen des nations 1997.
En 1998, elles s'inclinent en demi-finale de la Coupe du monde face aux futures vainqueurs, les Néo-zélandaises, et terminent à la troisième place. De 1999 à 2001, elle enchainent trois Grands chelems consécutifs dans le Tournoi des cinq nations. Le Tournoi se joue à six à partir de 2002 et les Anglaises s'inclinent face à la France et terminent à la deuxième place de la compétition. C'est également la place qu'elles occuperont deux mois plus tard en Coupe du monde après une nouvelle défaite face à la Nouvelle-Zélande.
La Coupe du monde 2006 ressemble à la précédente et elles subissent une nouvelle fois la suprématie des Néo-zélandaises en perdant 25-17 en finale. Entre temps, elles réalisent de nouveaux Grands chelems dans le Tournoi en 2003 et 2006, puis plus tard en 2007 et 2008. En 2009, elles remportent une nouvelle fois le tournoi malgré une défaite de justesse, 16-15, contre le équipe du pays de Galles. Elles gagnent également les deux premières éditions de la Nations Cup disputées en 2008 en Angleterre et en 2009 au Canada.
Back in 1990, when i was 13, my father gave me an Atari 800 xl. This is a (very) Basic program I made using the highest graphical capacity of 300x190 px.
In a tv, the output seems to have pixels in white, red and blue, but the graphics is actually made in just one color.
Just a bit of fun on Christmas morning with Capture NX2. Black and white conversion and then the selection brush.
A little bit of a mystery here: Arleen Coach Hire took over operation of the Devizes – Trowbridge services 77 and 87 jointly with Clapton Coaches in February 1992 following the retirement of the proprietor of MC Coaches, the previous operator. However in June 1992 Arleen surrendered its workings and the whole service was then provided by Clapton.
But on 22nd June 1993 I found Arleen’s BYC 827B (formerly WHC 802T) operating on service 87 in Devizes, presumably on hire.

All hail the deer tick. There is no escaping this disease carrying creature in our neck of the woods. As if one bout of Lyme disease wasn't enough, now it's time to dose on Doxycycline again.
a bit poorly executed but sometimes when i drink i like to take pictures and this is the outcome. the light painting was a lot harder on the darker car and being inebriated i wasn't able to keep the lines as straight as i wanted them to be. oh well
a little over 100 shots stacked. first time i messed with white balance and i kind of liked the redish sky vs the blue of the car.
side note:
ive been thinking of trying to do one in one single frame but finding a place where there is no light is becoming quite difficult
Kicking off this campaign with a relatively straightforward 8-bit make-over. Love how the negative space arrow between the E and x translates into pixels.

Feeling a bit exhausted and uninspired today. I just want to slow down and enjoy the season but there's always something to do and it hasn't stopped raining for days. Youngest had a Covid test today after a couple of days with a high temperature. Praying it will be negative so we can see my mother-in-law at Christmas.

In today's fun family daily vlog, I got all of the ingredients to make the Durian Fruit Smoothie that I told you I wanted to make when I tasted the Durian the other day. I forgot to thaw our the durian, so I had to take a knife to it to get the durian seed out of the durian flesh. For this durian fruit smoothie, you need durian, half of a banana, coconut milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and a dash of salt. For this durian fruit smoothie recipe, you add all of the ingredients together and blend. Once the durian fruit smoothie was ready, I was nervous about tasting it because of how the durian smells. Some of you mentioned that my durian may have been too ripe. I'm not sure if I like the durian fruit smoothie, but it wasn't bad enough for me to not finish the smoothie.

It's a nice hairstyle for her! Before the family went for a family walk, we planted some vegetable plants in our pot garden that our family bought yesterday. Our family also worked together to plant a blueberry bush that our family picked up yesterday. We show you how to plant a blueberry bush. This is my first time planting a blueberry bush, and our family did a good job! While our family went for our family walk, a cat came up to us and wanted to be petted. Our family had fun playing with the cat until the kids saw a fire hydrant! Thank you for watching our family vlog! We really appreciate it. We would love it if you thumbed up this video!
