    Englands win over Ireland yesterday put the national rugby side into the number 1 slot in the world rankings. This how the rankings look now:

    1 England

    2 New Zealand

    3 Australia

    4 South Africa

    5 France

    6 Ireland

    7 Scotland

    8 Wales

    9 Argentina

    10 Samoa

    11 Italy

    12 Canada

    The big show down will come next autumn when England play against the fearsome New Zealand All Blacks. Experts are predicting that even the legendary NZ boys will have no chance against a much-improved English team.

    Ok Englishman, I'll let you have the rugby field but in this corner of the world the Red Wings rule the ice and the US will rule the ice in Salt Lake.

    To all you NHL fans out there, put your money on the Wings, Sir Stanley is coming home.....

    Regards to all,

    Hah, Norway rules the snow!

    We won the gold in relay cross-country! Another exciting finish against the pesky Italians. Whew!

    Norway has 8 golds in the olympics now.

    I was surprised by an impressive 5th place for the US.

    (Hehe, Sweden was nr 13, of 15 teams in all.)

    Julie,

    You have many more active skiiers in alpine and nordic than we have In this part of the country, there is hardly ever snow.

    Medal statistics so far:

    G S B
    Norway 8 5 0
    Germany 5 8 6
    Russia 4 4 2
    USA 3 7 6
    Italy 3 2 2 Not bad for a country with just over 4 million people. We're even generous, leaving the lesser medals for you folks.

    Hey, this is fun! http://www.zedontheweb.co.nz/nz/haka.ram

    You can actually listen to the fearsome Kiwi's as they perform their ritual "Haka" before a game.

    It still won't help them beat England though......!
