from BERNAMA, The Malaysian National News Agency NEW DELHI, July 27 (Bernama) - Finally, India seems to win the confidence of the International Hockey Federation (FIH) to host the 2010 World Cup in March in Delhi, but FIH president Leandro Negre is still edgy over its preparations.

Internal rift within the Indian hockey fraternity, sponsorship disputes and delay in constructing the stadium kept the issue of the 12th Men's World Cup boiling in the last few months.

FIH had even threatened to withdraw Delhi as a venue and put Malaysia on standby to host the premier hockey event.

"There are no worries now. There have been a lot of improvements over the last six months but I have to visit the stadium tomorrow to see the progress.

And, I want a democratic election (to elect office bearers)," Negre told the media in Delhi.

Today, FIH and Hero Honda Motors Ltd, the world's largest two- wheeler manufacturer, signed an agreement, with the latter being the official sponsor for next year's championship.

"India is one of the most valuable and important members of the FIH family.

For the global development of hockey, its is important that Indian hockey should come up and play to its true potential.

"The FIH hopes that hosting the 2010 World Cup will give a tremendous boost to Indian hockey," said Negre.

India won the World Cup only once in 1975 in Kuala Lumpur and this will be the second it is hosting the event, which is held once in every four years.

India last hosted the championship in 1982 in Mumbai.

NEW DELHI: Even as more floods threaten to inundate Pakistan, the government there is reluctant to avail of India's offer of assistance.

Atlanta-Falcons

India indicated on Monday that it was willing to give more assistance over the $5 million it has already pledged. "We can and are willing to do much more," senior sources in the government said.

But New Delhi is yet to receive a response from the Zardari government to its earlier offer of assistance of $5 million.

India's offer of assistance was conveyed to Pakistan by foreign minister S M Krishna when he spoke to his counterpart Shah Mahmood Qureshi last weekend. Pakistan's foreign office, however, did not mention the Indian offer, merely saying that Krishna had extended India's sympathies to Pakistan at the time of crisis. When questioned, the foreign office spokesman said Pakistan had not "rejected the Indian offer outright".

The Indian government had also come under some criticism for being slow off the ground. New Delhi took time to craft its response because of the memory of Pakistan's indifference to its offer to help with earthquake relief in 2005. It has, however, now got its act together. Sources said the government has already begun preliminary work on an assistance package with the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA) which is resource-rich, and would even be willing to route the assistance through the UN if that's what Pakistan wants.

But it feels the bilateral approach is better because given the short distances, India would be able to reach assistance much faster to the affected areas lacoste in Pakistan. In fact, India is even willing to be the source country for assistance material for other countries, multilateral organizations helping out Pakistan, even NGOs.

But so far, Pakistan is yet to signal that it is willing to receive any aid through India, a move that is short-sighted in the extreme. Given the enormity of the catastrophe in Pakistan, and the prospect of more in coming days, India believes it can rush material across really quickly.

Pakistan had got $5 billion in international assistance in the wake of the earthquake that caused enormous destruction. But it has struggled to attract international assistance this time. What it has so far got -- just over $120 million -- pales before $1.2 billion that Haiti attracted after it was devastated by an earthquake.

US has led the international effort in Pakistan with an assistance of $80 million and by pressing heavy-lift choppers into rescue operations. But Pakistan's "all-weather " friend China and the Islamic nations it identifies with -- Saudi Arabia and other cash-rich ones -- have not stepped forward.

During the civil war in Sri Lanka, India had sent across family-packs that contained everything for a family for a specific time period. In Afghanistan, India supplies fortified biscuits which could be a good source of nutrition for children in Pakistan right now.

Pakistani authorities warned of a new flood wave making its way south along the Indus river and more heavy monsoon rains. The forecast came after UN secretary general Ban-ki Moon said it had received only 20% of the $460 million needed to provide aid.

The UN may organize an emergency meeting later this week to mobilize more funds. For Reprint Rights: timescontent.com

Now, with many old estates being pulled down and replaced with award-winning affordable and social-housing schemes, it's an area that's ripe once again for investment.

Homeowners with a long-term view are set to benefit from the huge number of projects due over the next decade in the Nine Elms regeneration scheme -- the new American Embassy and the revamp of the New Covent Garden Market by Foster Partners.

There are a Discount Bally Handbags Bags Replica limited number of three-and fourbedroom houses. Call 020 7735 9422. For those on a tighter budget, Genesis Homes is offering flats in a shared-ownership scheme a few minutes' walk away from Streatham Common at William Court.

There are only two flats left at William Court but Genesis is completing a similar car-free, 69-home development in Glyn Street by Vauxhall City Farm. It launches in autumn and will feature 32 sharedownership flats. Call 0845 600 4663.

Cheslea's England star Frank Lampard is praying the rift can be healed between boss Phil Scolari and outcast striker Didier Drogba.

Drogba was left at home for the midweek FA Cup win at Southend - and he appears to remain doubtful for this weekend's clash with Stoke following an apparent bust up with Scolari.

"It's the manager's prerogative to leave players out," said a philosophical Lampard.

"Every manager I've played under, and I've played under some top managers, has the right to drop someone, put them on the bench, rest them, whatever.

"Didier is a very big personality and player at this club, and he will take it in the right way, I'm sure.

Detroit-Pistons

"Hopefully he will remain a massive part of this club because he's definitely one of, if not the best, striker in the world. You always want those sort of people around."

Lampard also sprang to Scolari's defence after the Brazilian bore the brunt of the media onslaught in the wake of last weekend's 3-0 beating at Manchester United.

"I don't know if he is feeling the pressure," said Lampard, "but a lot of people are trying to blame him, which is wrong.

"We go out every week and we are the ones letting down the fans and the manager.

"If we don't perform people blame the manager, but it's down to us. We take full responsibility for results."

Meanwhile, first-team coach Ray Wilkins is confident Chelsea will clean up their set-piece weaknesses before Stoke roll on to the King's Road this weekend.

Chelsea's Achilles heel has been their defending from corners and free-kicks - and even Southend exposed the Blues to briefly threaten an FA Cup upset this week.

"It's always disappointing when any side concedes at a set- piece," said Wilkins, "because you work extremely hard to keep them out.

"With this group of guys, what you always expect is that they will work extremely hard to rectify that in the next game they play.

"We will try everything to get it right - zonal, man-to-man, sticking a coach in front of it. We will try the lot until we get the right solution."

And his words will doubtless echo around the training field in the run-up to the Stoke fixture and the unique threat posed by Rory Delap's monster throw-ins.

Delap's aim and distance was back to its best against Liverpool last weekend, while the signing of James Beattie adds yet more aerial power to Stoke's cause.

Chelsea's 4-1 victory over Southend silenced Discount Womens Fashion Shoes the critics for a few days after they had suffered a pounding in the wake of their 3- 0 capitulation at Manchester United three days earlier.

But Wilkins, right, feels the media's attack helped bond the Chelsea players ahead of their third-round FA Cup replay win at Roots Hall on Wednesday.

"Because of the slightly adverse media reporting on the club at the moment, which is slightly disappointing from our point of view, you do tend to get that (spirit) from within.

"Nobody likes being criticised and they put that right.

"Our spirit has been fantastic and you can see that from the pace with which

RAPID CITY, S.D.

A whirlwind getaway jam-packed with world-famous attractions, scenery like nowhere else on earth, wildlife, good food and even, if you want, gambling.

That's what you get in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. In a single weekend, using Rapid City as our base, our family hit Mount Rushmore, Custer State Park, the Crazy Horse Memorial, Wall Drug, Badlands National Park and Deadwood. Along the way, we saw buffalo, antelope, bighorn sheep, burros and prairie dogs, and even met a man who was one of the original workers on the construction of Rushmore.

Of course there is an argument to be made for a slower style of travel, soaking in the sights. But as New Yorkers on our first visit to the area, traveling with two boys whose travel mantra is, "Show us the wow, never mind the details," a tour of the highlights was perfect for us. It was remarkable how much fun we managed to pack into a mere 48 hours.

We started at Mount Rushmore. Who hasn't seen photos of this place? And yet to view it in person is astonishing. You simply can't get over the sheer hubris that it took to carve presidents into a mountain. You glimpse the faces as you approach, but then, suddenly, you're right there, staring up Jefferson's nostrils. The reality lives up to the hype.

A highlight of our visit was meeting Nick Clifford, 88, a construction worker at Rushmore from 1938 to 1940. Today he greets visitors and signs copies of his book, "Mount Rushmore Q&A," in the park gift shop.

Next stop was Custer State Park. Driving the park's 18-mile wildlife loop in a mere two hours, we saw buffalo, pronghorn antelope, bighorn sheep and burros. Deer, prairie dogs and mountain lions live here too.

"There's probably no place better in the nation than Custer State Park to see wildlife," said park spokesman Craig Pugsley. "In a short amount of time, you have a very good opportunity to see a number of species." The hours just after sunrise and before sunset are best for seeing wildlife, he said.

We encountered a traffic jam in Custer Park as cars stopped to pet and photograph the friendly burros who happily stuck their heads in our car windows.

"They're very popular," said Pugsley. Petting the burros is not forbidden, but he said there are reports of bites "from time to time. You need to use your best judgment being around them."

The bison herd is generally kept at about 1,300, and the calves, mostly born in May, are still pint-size by late summer compared to their parents.

A roundup is held each year the last Monday in September to count, brand and vaccinate the herd. Some animals are sold at auction to keep the population manageable.

Christian Louboutin

The park, established in 1919, "played an instrumental role in bringing back the bison from the brink of extinction," Pugsley said. The ones here are descended from animals captured on one of the last big bison hunts in South Dakota in the early 20th century.

Custer Park is named for Gen. George Custer, who was famously defeated by Native Americans at Little Bighorn, Mont., in 1876. Before Little Bighorn, he had led an expedition into the Black Hills that discovered gold.

We stopped in the town of Custer for dinner and had a good meal of bison b

THE director-general of the BBC, Mark Thompson, has criticised rival Sky for failing to invest in British talent and productions.

During a passionate public defence of the corporation, Mr Thompson told a Scottish audience it was time the digital television giant pulled its weight by putting more profits into original programming.

He used the MacTaggart Lecture at the Edinburgh International Television Festival last night to hit back at criticisms of the BBC made at last Salvatore Ferragamo shoes year's lecture by James Murdoch, chairman of British Sky Broadcasting (BSkyB).

He also spoke out against "exaggerated claims about waste and inefficiency" at the BBC.

Mr Thompson said Sky was well on its way to being the dominant force in UK broadcasting. It was an important provider of quality television, he said, but added: "When it comes to investing in original British production, it's a different picture."

The competition offered by Sky's increased investment would be good for the BBC, the industry and the public, he said.

"Our system depends on the big commercial broadcasters backing British talent - not with occasional commissions which are then lavishly marketed but with week-in, week-out investment," he added.

Mr Thompson warned against cutting the licence fee, and spoke of the importance of defending the independence of public-service broadcasters.

He also talked about the need for reform within the BBC, including cutting "top talent pay".

The corporation has come under fire for the large sums of licence- fee cash paid to stars and top managers. It spends pound(s)54 million on its top-earning performers, said to include Graham Norton, Jeremy Paxman and Fiona Bruce. Mr Thompson himself earns pound(s)664,000 a year.

Jonathan Ross was reported to have a pound(s)6m-a-year deal before he left the corporation.

Mr Thompson accepted the BBC would lose stars to other stations. Two recent defectors are Adrian Chiles and Christine Bleakley, who moved to ITV.

But Yves saint laurent he pledged that senior managers would be cut by at least a fifth by the end of next year, and that senior management pay would fall by at least a quarter. "If we can go further, we will, and we will look for reductions at every level," he said.

He said the next round of discussions with the Government on the licence fee would be "a moment for realism", and claimed every pound taken out of the BBC's commissioning budget was a pound taken out of the country's creative economy.

In the lecture, called The Battle for Quality, Mr Thompson cited public support for the BBC and referred to the 17 million people who tuned into BBC1 after the General Election. He said: "There is still a very strong instinct in this country to come together through broadcasting to share great national moments".

lTelevision production in Scotland could expand massively over the next three years, says a new report - but only if it is supported by millions of pounds of public money.

The Scottish Television Broadcast and Production Group said 1700 jobs could be created with the right support, and urged Creative Scotland to boost investment in the sector.

The broadcasters want a "production incentive
