It is not necessary to compile the LSB-si for testing; the official packages released by the LSB project should be used for this purpose. However, it may be instructive to see how the LSB-si is constructed to get to a clean implementation of the LSB Written Specification. The remainder of this section describes the process.
The LSB-si is built from clean upstream package sources. The build instructions are captured in a set of XML files that serve as inputm to a tool called nALFS; the concept is derived from the Linux From Scratch  project.
The build is a multistage process (Figure 12.1), so that the final result has been built by the LSB-si itself, and the majority of dependencies on the build environment of the host machine are eliminated. Ideally, all the dependencies would be eliminated, but in practice a few minor things may leak through. In particular, the initial stage of the LSB-si build now does not do the GCC fixincludes step as this pulled in some details of the host system in the "fixed" header files that were then used throughout the build process.
The first phase, or bootstrap, of the LSB-si build is to produce a minimal toolchain of static binaries as shown in Figure 12.1. Packages such as gcc, binutils, kernel-headers, and coreutils are built.
The second phase of the build is to use the bootstrap as a chroot environment to build a more complete toolchain as shown in Figure 12.1. As binaries are rebuilt, the new ones are installed on top of the old static copies built in the bootstrap phase so that by the end of the second phase, we have a complete development environment, using all dynamic libraries. This environment has the characteristic that it is entirely isolated from the details of the build host environment, since none of the tools from the build host have been used to compile the final binaries and libraries.
To reduce the rebuild time, the bootstrap phase is copied to another location before starting, and the copy is used as phase 2. During LSB-si development, there tend to be few changes to the bootstrap, but many to the later phases. For a released LSB-si source tree, this really doesn't matter except that it increases the space requirements of the build area a bit. Thus the bootstrap copy of second phase is not essential for the build strategy, but rather a convenience for LSB-si developers.
This intermediate phase 2 of the build can be used as an LSB Development Environment; in effect, this is what it does when building the final phase. The final phase does not have a compilation environment, as that is not part of the LSB Written Specification. The intermediate phase 2 is designed to be used as a chroot environment; using the compiler directly (not in a chroot) won't work as things will point relatively to the wrong places. Although the intermediate phase 2 is for the same architecture as the host machine, it is more like a cross compilation environment. Note that producing a more usable build environment is a future direction; the current intermediate phase is not officially supported as such and the bundle is not part of the released materials.
The third phase is the construction of the actual LSB si as it will be delivered as shown in Figure 12.1. In this phase, the completed second phase is used in a chroot as the development environment, and each package is then compiled and installed to a target location in the LSB-si tree. During the third phase, care is taken not to install unnecessary binaries or libraries, because an upstream source package will often build and install more than is required by the LSB, and these need to be pruned from the final tree.
Since the LSB team has already anticipated several uses for the LSB-si that require more than the core set, there exists a fourth phase that builds add-on bundles that can be installed on top of the base LSB-si bundle to provide additional functionality as shown in Figure 12.1. There are currently three subphases of the fourth phase: the first one to build additional tools required for running the lsb-runtime-test suite on the LSB-si, the second to build additional binaries to make a bootable system, and the third to build additional binaries to make a User-Mode Linux system. The fourth phase is built by the second phase build environment just like third phase is, and is completely independent of the third phase. That is, if one had a completed second phase, one could start off a fourth phase build without ever building the third phase and it would work fine. It is likely that in the future, there will be additional fourth phase subphases to include in a build environment.
The source code for the LSB-si Development Environment can be obtained from the LSB CVS tree. The code can be checked out in several ways: as a snapshot either by release tag or by date, or as a working cvs directory (even if you're not an LSB developer, having a working directory can let you check developments more quickly by doing a "cvs update"). For an example using a release-tag snapshot, see the build instructions in Section 12.4.2.
You can browse the CVS tree Web interface to determine the available release tags.
You will also need to check out (or export) the tools/nALFS directory to get the build tool. Again, see Section 12.4.2 for an example.
Source code for the patches to the base tarballs is in the CVS tree in si/build/patches. These patches should be copied to the package source directory. The base tarballs must be obtained separately. Once the build area has been configured, a provided tool can be used to populate the package source directory.
The same tool (extras/entitycheck.py) can be used to check if all the necessary files are present before starting a build. With a -c option, it will do a more rigorous test, checking md5sums, not just existence. Every effort has been made to describe reliable locations for the files, but sometimes a project chooses to move an old version aside after releasing a new one (if they have a history of doing so, the location where old versions are placed is probably already captured). The packages are also mirrored on the Free Standards Group Web site.  Still, retrieval sometimes fails; entitycheck.py will inform of missing files and the expected locations are listed in extras/package_locations so it's possible to try to fetch the missing packages manually.
Use -D now instead of the release tag to grab the current development version.
Configure the build environment. There's a simple configuration script that localizes the makefile, some of the entities, and other bits. The main question is where you're going to build the LSB-si. The default location is /usr/src/si. Make sure the build directory exists and is in a place that has enough space (see the note at the end of this section).
From here on, you'll need to operate as superuser, as the build process does mounts and the chroot command, operations restricted to root in most environments.
If there's a problem, make should restart the build where it failed. If the interruption happened during the intermediate LSB-si phase, it is likely that the whole phase will be restarted; this is normal.
The build takes a lot of space (around 1.4GB), and may take a lot of time. A full build on a fast dual-CPU Pentium 4 is about 2.5 hours; depending on architecture, memory, and processor speed it may take as much as 20 hours.
If the build stops, voluntarily or through some problem, there should be a fair bit of support for restartability, but this is not perfect. In particular, be cautious about cleaning out any of the build areas, as the package directory may still be bind-mounted. Each of the team members has accidentally removed the packages directory more than once, causing big delays while it's being refetched (it pays to make a copy of this directory somewhere else). Be careful! The makefile has a clear_mounts target that may be helpful.

The Glencore stock price jumped roughly 15% to 139.70 pence today (Friday) after the company drastically slashed its zinc production.
Zinc prices have fallen 30% in the last few months, prompting the production cut. Today's announcement sent zinc prices soaring more than 11% intraday to $1,850 per metric ton. That was the sharpest gain since at least 1989, according to Bloomberg.

Q: How do I proceed to the next andThen if the value in the current andThen is nil? I have chained multiple calls to the same Completable like this:
self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockReleaseTime)
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockRelease) })
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockVoltage) })
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockPowered) })
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockPowered) })
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockInstall) })
                    .andThen(Completable.deferred { self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockKick) })
                    .subscribe(onCompleted: {
                        print("-- Done setting parameter")
}).disposed(by: self.disposeBag)

The problem here is that the arguments can be nil (lockRelease, lockVoltage, etc); and if they are, I just want to skip the current andThen and proceed to the next andThen sort of like this:
.andThen(Completable.deferred {
    guard let lockRelease = lockRelease else {
        Completable.skipToNextAndThen
     }

    return self.viewModel.setParameter(parameter: lockRelease) })

Is it possible to do something like this?

A: Your skipToNextAndThen is called .empty(). Also, there's no need for the deferreds in this situation.  As in:
func example() {
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockReleaseTime)
        .andThen(setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockRelease))
        .andThen(setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockVoltage))
        .andThen(setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockPowered))
        .andThen(setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockInstall))
        .andThen(setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockKick))
        .subscribe(onCompleted: {
            print("-- Done setting parameter")
        })
        .disposed(by: disposeBag)
}

func setOptionalParameter(parameter: Param?) -> Completable {
    guard let parameter = parameter else { return .empty() }
    return viewModel.setParameter(parameter: parameter)
}

Also, instead of all the andThens, you can use concat:
Completable.concat(
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockReleaseTime),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockRelease),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockVoltage),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockPowered),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockInstall),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockKick)
)
.subscribe(onCompleted: {
    print("-- Done setting parameter")
})
.disposed(by: disposeBag)

Also, I expect they don't really have to be done one at a time, in order. If not, you can use zip:
Completable.zip(
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockReleaseTime),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockRelease),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockVoltage),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockPowered),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockInstall),
    setOptionalParameter(parameter: lockKick)
)
.subscribe(onCompleted: {
    print("-- Done setting parameter")
})
.disposed(by: disposeBag)

Home EMG SA Set Electric Guitar Pickup, Red, Single Pickup
EMG SA Set Electric Guitar Pickup, Red, Single Pickup
Brand: EMG
EMG's most popular system for Stratocaster-type* guitars was originally developed in 1974 but was redesigned along with all the other models in 1979. It was voiced with the help of guitar Repairman/Luthier John Carruthers and his professional clientele. The first professional who spread the gospel about the EMG-SA was Peter Frampton who visited EMG in 1979. By 1985, Peter had turned Steve Lukather on to the system along with a host of others. They can't recall when David Gilmour got his first SA System, but Rob remembers delivering a system in L.A. for David and meeting Phil Taylor (David's main man) for the first time.The EMG-SA combines the attributes of the early Strat* sound but with an added midrange response and higher output. It's "bell-like" ringing harmonics and increased sustain give the SA greater versatility than normally found in single-coil pickups. A single Alnico bar magnet delivers classic overdrive with a smooth midrange distortion, while still retaining the familiar high-end of a single-coil pickup. The internal preamp rejects every bit of hum and buzz for noiseless operation. Only three connections are necessary to complete the assembly. Package Includes: EMG's exclusive Quik-Connect cables (3), prewired control set including volume, 2 tone controls, 5-way selection switch (black & white knobs), output jack, and battery clip, screws & springs.

(c) Licensee's personnel shall report each instance of any failure or malfunction of the Pre-Release Software ("Program Failure") in full (including, without limitation, description of the application then underway and the specifics of the Program Failure). If any Program Failure results in damage to files or data or if the frequency of Program Failures is excessive under the circumstances, Licensee shall also promptly notify Vendor of this fact. Copies of the reports regarding Program Failures shall be forwarded to Vendor.
The Pre-Release Software, the related documentation, and all authorized copies thereof shall remain the exclusive property of Vendor and shall not be used in any way other than as allowed by this Agreement. Licensee acknowledges that, as between Vendor and Licensee, the Pre-Release Software and its related documentation and all copyrights, trade secret rights, and other intellectual property rights with respect thereto, are and will at all times be the property of Vendor, even if suggestions made by Licensee are incorporated into subsequent versions of the Pre-Release Software or related documentation.

This is a really nice 76 with fair centering. The honest seller was kind enough to show us the back of the stamp. Because this issue is printed on the thicker opaque paper, grills of the later issues stand out more than their banknote counterparts. There is no grill present when originally sold.
The seller "schuylerac" describes the following: TINY PRESSED CORNER CREASE. CENTERING COULD BE BETTER, COULD BE WORSE!

US heat wave just warming up for long and scorching weekend -
The heat wave that has been roasting much of the U.S. in recent days is just getting warmed up, with temperatures expected to soar to dangerous levels through the weekend. Officials are also concerned about smog, which is exacerbated by the heat and makes it harder for certain people to breathe, including the very young, the elderly and people with asthma or lung diseases. More than 100 local heat records are expected to fall on Saturday, according to the National Weather Service.

'Habit' of workouts at consistent time of day tied to meeting activity goals -
Among 375 people who had lost weight and kept it off for at least a year, those who typically worked out at the same time every day averaged about 350 minutes of exercise per week, versus 285 minutes for those with inconsistent exercise schedules. "On average, those with high physical activity levels have a consistency with their routine, and that includes finding an optimal time to perform their daily routine," said senior study author Dale Bond of The Miriam Hospital/Brown Alpert Medical School Weight Control and Diabetes Research Center in Providence, Rhode Island. Most guidelines recommend at least 150 minutes per week of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity for health and 250 minutes per week for maintaining weight loss over the long term, the study team notes.


"The title, War and Peace is very appropriate for the saga of political intrigue and warfare. While the setting is Russia's war with Napoleon, War and Peace is also a story of personal conflict and resolution".
The title of this book is an appropriate description of not only what happens on a Macro level between nations, but also what often happens in communities, churches, families and even in personal relationships. It is sad but true that in life we find conflicts at all levels of society, but alongside that there is always and deep inner yearning for peace. So how might we obtain peace instead of war in our personal relationships. In this passage we see in the middle of an open conflict between his disciples, Jesus gave a discourse on Peace?
Remember the backdrop to this part of the passage is he had just recently taken Peter James and John and gone up onto a mountain top and been transfigured (appeared in his full heavenly glory) before them. Then he has come down from that mountain and He meets the other nine disciples and there is an opportunity to teach the disciples some things that he did not particularly want the general public to know at this time. That, 'The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men. They will kill him, and after three days he will rise.' In other words, he is telling them he is going to Jerusalem to die. It is this foundation that Jesus is attempting to lay here, but sadly verse 32 tells us as, 32 But they did not understand what he meant and were afraid to ask him about it.
Jesus of course would have known they had been arguing because he would have heard their bickering as they made their way along the road. But having asked the question the disciples keep silent because they knew exactly what they had been doing, and that it was not going to go down well with Jesus. In response to this situation Jesus sits them down and begins to teach them about conflict saying, 'Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last, and the servant of all.' 36 He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms, he said to them, 37 'Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.' The philosophy of the world means that greatness is achieved by getting others to serve you but according to Jesus greatness come by serving others. Let's be clear this is not Jesus abolishing ambition, it is Jesus recreating and refocusing our drives and ambitions. Changing the ambition to rule into an ambition to serve. Removing the ambition of having things done for us and substituting them with the ambition of doing things for other people.
This is where there appears to be a sort of interruption to the narrative and out of left field so to speak. This happens. 38 'Teacher,' said John, 'we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us. People have been doing exactly what they were supposed to be doing, and crediting Jesus but the disciples told them to stop. Sometimes Christians are guilty of acting exclusively. Their attitude can be if you are not part of our group then you are not a proper Christian. Just because someone doesn't see eye to eye with you or maybe is even not quite correct on minor theological issue does not mean that that person does not know the Lord and is serving the Lord.
Jesus goes on to say, "Do not stop him,' Jesus said. 'For no one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, 40 for whoever is not against us is for us. I believe here Jesus is reasoning that someone who is casting out demons in my name must be a believer. If he was a believer, they then should have brought him into their fellowship, he may have needed further discipleship and teaching, but they should have welcomed him and received him, because by receiving such people you are in fact receiving the Lord.
Those who serve people in the name of the Lord especially serve those who cannot pay them back, but also, never forget service will also included welcoming and receiving those who already serve in His name. In this country and in our climate, we perhaps don't readily get the image of offering something as simple as a cup of water as a sign of Hospitality, but a cup of water in the heat of the day was indeed hospitality to someone in need.
I began by say in there was a novel called War and Peace, a novel as much about interpersonal conflict and relationships, as it is about politics or war. War, where does that come from. Peace, how might you have it. If we can say to out brothers and Sister in Christ, I am here to serve you, not to be served by you. I submit to you that if in every conflict in this and every church, if everyone of us was to say, how can I help, what can I do to be of service, how can I help you, we would resolve a lot of conflicts, very quickly. The greatest in the kingdom and the people whose life is characterised by peace, are those that serve others. To put it in modern language, the greatest of those in the kingdom are those who are prepared to let others take first place and bear no ill will. I heard someone once say, the mark of spiritual believer is marked when someone takes off the bib and puts on the apron. D L Moody said, the measure of a man is not how many servants he has, but how many people he serves. That's not the way the world operates, but that's the way the kingdom operates. You may not be well known in this world, but you will be well known in the kingdom that is to come and the people who are the most well-known down here may well not be known at all in heaven.
OK folks, time for us to take of our bibs and put on our aprons.

JOINT RELEASE: GOV. SIGNS HOLOCAUST AND GENOCIDE STUDIES BILL
DENVER, CO– Today, at Jewish Colorado in Denver, Governor Jared Polis signed into law HB20-1336, sponsored by Representatives Dafna Michaelson Jenet and Emily Sirota and Senators Steve Fenberg and Dennis Hisey. The bill, which passed unanimously in both the Colorado House and Senate, requires high school seniors in public schools to learn about genocide and the Holocaust as a requirement for graduation.
"All Colorado students should graduate with an understanding of the darkest parts of our history so we can work together to stop racism and hatred and ensure that atrocities like the Holocaust never happen again," said Rep. Michaelson Jenet, D-Commerce City. "We've seen a rise in anti-semitism and racist and bigoted language during this pandemic, and it's important for all our children to learn how hatred and discrimination can lead quickly to genocide."
"By requiring Holocaust and genocide studies be taught in public schools, Colorado has taken a critical step to ensure future generations understand the importance of tolerance and inclusivity," said Senate Majority Leader Steve Fenberg, D-Boulder. "At a time when these principles are most needed, this new law will provide students with opportunities to recognize signs of hate, and ensure that the voices of the survivors of these horrific tragedies are never forgotten."
"Teaching Holocaust and genocide education is a necessary and difficult conversation that we need to have with our students," said Rep. Sirota, D-Denver. "Learning about the mass atrocities of the past will help us stop future horrors and injustice and help our high school graduates identify the warning signs that tell us when history is repeating."
HB20-1336 requires the State Board of Education to adopt standards related to Holocaust and genocide studies. Specifically, it requires that by the 2023-24 school year, local school district boards of education and public charter schools incorporate a Holocaust and genocide studies component into an existing course that is required for graduation. The bill would also create, by 2021, a publicly available educational materials resource bank. The bank will include sample academic content, instruction programs, learning resources, professional educator development materials and case studies related to Holocaust and genocide studies, including but not limited to first-person testimony and materials about the Armenian genocide. Both the standards and resource bank must be developed in accordance with best practices and with input from experts.


P&G Sochi Countdown Ends Today!
I had not heard of Rule 40 until reading this article. I can't believe that actually exists as a rule. I see why people would want it since there are these ambush ads by certain companies but olympians really don't make that much money unless they have a lot of good sponsors so by not letting them endorse them at all makes the olympians lose a lot of money making opportunities. I think olympic athletes should have the right to endorse brands at least on social media.
I think this post is fascinating. I had no idea that the Olympics were banning the athletes from promoting their sponsors. It seems cruel that the Olympics would do something that is essentially taking away the athletes right to speak freely. Athletes should be able to give thanks and promote those who have helped them along the way. I was also surprised by the fact that Nike is known for being an ambush marketer. I don't really understand why a company would want to be known for that. I understand that they got a lot of press at the World Cup but it just seems like they are selling out. What do you think? Also thanks for such an informative blog!
These rules and restrictions have gone too far in my opinion. I believe these individuals whom have made it this far to represent such achievements should be able to give recognition to such sponsors. After reading this post, I have been informed on rule 40. These personal sponsors might not be the biggest name and giving them credibility will not only help their company but help other outstanding athletes. Nike has been one of my favorite companies for a while now, i'm shocked at their actions. I can compare this article to Super Bowl commercials as well. The top dogs always remain on top. I would like to take away a broader network of sponsors to explore from the Olympics instead of these huge brands. Moreover, now I'm curious as to what rules 1-39 are. Thanks for sharing!
Like Brett said this was the first time hearing about this as well, and I cannot help but to disagree with this rule of keeping athletes from acknowledging their sponsors. Keep in mind that many athletes in the Olympics are young. Very young actually, some not even being 18. A teenager participating in the Olympics obviously does not have the means to pay for the coaching, facilities, and equipment needed to be good enough in their sport without the contributions of sponsors. Without these sponsors backing, athletes wouldn't even be able to participate in these games. Add in athletes from much smaller and less commercialized countries who need that sponsorship desperately and you run into a problem. If companies don't get the exposure for their athletes in the Olympics, then what is the point of sponsoring them? The Olympics is risking the livelihood of some of these athletes because if the sponsors back out then they don't have the means to participate in the Olympics. As far as the ambush advertising goes, it will play an even bigger role this year and it will be entertaining to see what some of these countries try to pull off.
Very interesting read! Prior to this article, I had never heard of the Rule 40 and had no idea at the social media mini-revolution of the Olympic athletes. It's interesting how an external force would attempt to constrain athletes to not thank and promote their vital sponsors, when nearly any other organization, individual, or company acts in a very parallel nature. Looking forward to see where this story goes in the future!


In an interview with German newspaper Welt am Sonntag, Thomas Haldenwang, the head of the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution (BfV) — Germany's domestic intelligence agency — warned against an increasing threat posed by the return of "Islamic State" (IS) jihadis from Syria and northern Iraq.
"I cannot give an all-clear on IS," Haldenwang said. "It can launch an attack in Germany anytime," he added.
The BfV president said that IS still exists with a focus on the "virtual cyber caliphate" that can still attract collaborators for attacks.
Haldenwang, however, admitted that it is not possible for authorities to monitor all terror suspects. "We'll need at least four people to monitor one such person. We are only focusing on those who could be extremely dangerous."
The BfV head called for a legal change to monitor children of IS returnees. "If we are allowed to take their data, then we can, for example, give the information to the youth welfare office," said Haldenwang, adding that these children are themselves victims.
The BfV president said that some of these children have witnessed IS violence and that they worship their fathers as heroes.
"We ask ourselves: is this the new generation of terrorists?" Haldenwang said.
The German federal official also defended a proposal to monitor messenger services: "We can monitor regular telephones for superficial feuds. What happens on messenger chats often remains hidden from us," he said, adding that extremists and terrorists know exactly how they can interact with each other without being noticed.
Haldenwang also stressed that Germany had to "pay more attention to far-right extremism." He said the agency had noticed that far-right groups were more and more "interlinked" and that the lines between those groups and ordinary "citizen protesters" were increasingly blurred.
Germany's domestic spy agency has been blocked from classifying Germany's far-right AfD party as a "test case." The party had complained the label was defamatory.

UEFA EURO 2020 - EURO Classics: Netherlands 1-4 England - News
EURO Classics: Netherlands 1-4 England
Watch this memorable EURO '96 performance from England in full on UEFA.tv; we set the scene.
England were already playing in front of an expectant nation at EURO '96, but this was the game that turned that anticipation into delirium.
WATCH THE GAME BACK IN FULL ON UEFA.tv
Watch great England EURO goals
Both teams needed only a draw to progress to the last eight having picked up four points from their opening two Group A games. Hosts England had drawn 1-1 with Switzerland before a 2-0 victory against rivals Scotland, while the Dutch followed stalemate with Craig Brown's side with a 2-0 defeat of the Swiss.
Alan Shearer: The then Blackburn striker had drawn a blank in 12 internationals prior to his effort against Switzerland and finished as tournament top scorer with five goals in all. Joined boyhood club Newcastle United for a world-record fee later that summer.
Teddy Sheringham: The crafty Spurs striker forged a lethal partnership with Shearer that became known as 'The SAS'. Never did the pair dovetail better than in this game.
Paul Gascoigne: Thought of by many in England as a once-in-a-generation player, 'Gazza' was a true maverick. A larger-than-life character on and off the field, one of the defining moments of a brilliant if chequered career was his goal and celebration against Scotland a few days prior to this game.
EURO '96 highlights: Spotlight on Paul Gascoigne
In a nutshell, England put in their best performance for years. Terry Venables' side were riding the crest of a wave with their home fans growing in excitement by the game – even more so than after this.
Shearer's first-half penalty put England in front, but it was a devastating 12-minute spell in the second half which is still remembered so fondly even today. Sheringham headed in the hosts' second, contributed a delightful lay-off to Shearer for the third and finished on the rebound for the fourth. Patrick Kluivert's late consolation sent the Dutch through as group runners-up.
EURO '96 top scorer: All of Alan Shearer's goals
Terry Venables, England manager: "I can sleep easily now. This makes all the years of hard work, the planning and the worrying worthwhile. I'm full of pride, because to beat Holland like this means so much to me."
Alan Shearer, England goalscorer: "The best performance by an England team I'd ever played in."
The Guardian newspaper: "The game is now enshrined in folklore as one of England's greatest ever performances."
Elsewhere that evening
Ally McCoist scored the only goal as Scotland beat Switzerland to give themselves a chance of going through from second spot in Group A. They missed out on goals scored, though, following Kluivert's effort against England.
EURO '96 highlights: The full England-Germany penalty shoot-out
England beat Spain on penalties in the last eight but lost to eventual winners Germany on spot kicks in the semi-finals, just as they had done at the 1990 FIFA World Cup. The Netherlands had also exited after a shoot-out following a goalless draw against France in the quarter-finals.

Melbourne Cup - Bon Voyage to Southern France
Last Updated: 6th November 2019
It's "the race that stops a nation". The 2019 Melbourne Cup is upon us and if finding the winner wasn't hard enough, the added competitiveness of the race in recent years has seen the weights become far more compressed. This means those lower in the handicap have been asked to carry more while those up in the weights aren't quite as disadvantaged as they once were.
We preview Tuesday morning's 24-runner handicap.
European challenge – tough for Cross Counter to win it again
British and Irish raiders have enjoyed a great deal of success in the past two years, with Joseph O'Brien's Rekindling and most recently Charlie Appleby's Cross Counter both leading home back-to-back 1-2-3s for European raiders. The overseas challenge looks strong again this time around with 10 confirmed runners including defending champion Cross Counter, Raymond Tusk, Master Of Reality and Hunting Horn.
You have to go back to 2005 for the last horse to win this race in consecutive years and it's hard to see the son of Teofilo becoming the first internationally-trained horse to win back-to-back Melbourne Cups. He's been running in top-class races in the UK this season, chasing Stradivarius home twice at Ascot and Goodwood, but this has clearly been the target all season. He was the bottom-weight last year, but shoulders top-weight this time around and although he has the class for this, it would take a pretty seismic effort to win it again.
Cross Counter is 11/1 to give Appleby another day to remember.
Wet weather brings plenty into it
Given the ground at Flemington is already riding on the slow side and there's still more rain in the forecast, you've got to be looking for horses with soft ground form. It's unlikely to be heavy in Melbourne, but it's going to be tough work for the field and stamina for this two mile trip is also going to be crucial.
Japan's Mer De Glace won another competitive handicap, the Caulfield Cup, last time and has been backed into 6/1 favourite as a result. He has won all six starts this year including three 1m2f Group 2 races in Japan as well as that Caulfield Cup victory and must be respected. His breeding doesn't suggest the two mile test will suit though and there must be reservations around the ground too.
The ground will be to the liking of Ebor winner Mustajeer, formerly with Ger Lyons in Ireland and now trained by Kris Lees, and he looks a fair price at 14/1. However, it could pay to take a chance on another former Irish contender in the shape of Southern France.
A talented galloper on his day, Southern France is also a bit of an enigma who doesn't always show his best form. Placed in both the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot and the St Leger at Doncaster as a three-year-old, he ended last season finishing seventh in the Cesarewitch – a route that many horses who have run well in the Melbourne Cup have taken.
This season has once again been mixed, with a very good second to Stradivarius in the Yorkshire Cup before disappointing in his next three starts at Ascot, the Curragh and Goodwood. However, the colt was much better when defeating Downdraft on soft ground in the Irish St Leger Trial at the Curragh before running another good race when third in the Irish St Leger itself on his most recent start.
The form of that run looks strong, with the runner-up Kew Gardens taking the Long Distance Cup at Ascot recently and given his ability to handle a softer surface, the 18/1 on offer with six places looks worth snapping up.
