question:
Eric Becker, 29, from Memphis, Tennessee, shared his "100% edible" design of Blickling Hall, in Norfolk, on a Norwich community Facebook page. "After I posted it I was blown away by the kindness of people," he said. Mr Becker spent about 60 hours making the house, which he has not visited in real life. Mr Becker, who teaches French and Spanish, said he was inspired to make gingerbread houses by watching Mary Berry on the Great British Bake Off on BBC America. He said he decided to recreate Blickling Hall, near Aylsham, because he had "always been interested in British country houses and I was looking for houses to replicate and Blickling just stood out as a particularly stunning house". Mr Becker said he was now thinking of visiting the hall next year, should it become safe to do so. "I have always wanted to go to the UK and so as soon as it is possible I would love to go. The first stop would be London but next stop would be Blickling," he said. Blicking Hall has been owned by the National Trust since 1940.

An American man said he was "blown away" by the public response to his recreation of an English stately home using gingerbread.


question:
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (Icann) plans to dramatically increase the number of domain endings from the current 22. Internet address names will end with almost any word and be in any language. Icann will begin taking applications next year, with corporations and cities expected to be among the first. "Icann has opened the internet's addressing system to the limitless possibilities of the human imagination," said Rod Beckstrom, president and chief executive officer for Icann. "No one can predict where this historic decision will take us." There will be several hundred new generic top-level domain names (gTLDs), which could include such addresses as .google, .coke, or even .BBC. There are currently 22 gTLDs, as well as about 250 country-level domain names such as .uk or .de. Costly process It will cost $185,000 (£114,000) to apply for the suffixes, and companies would need to show they have a legitimate claim to the name they are buying. Analysts say it is a price that global giants might be willing to pay - in order to maximise their internet presence. The money will be used to cover costs incurred by Icann in developing the new gTLDs and employing experts to scrutinise the many thousands of expected applications. A portion will be set-aside to deal with potential legal actions, raised by parties who fail to get the domains they want. The vote completes a six-year negotiation process and is the biggest change to the system since .com was first introduced 26 years ago. Icann said it was beginning a global communications programme to raise awareness of the new domain names. Applications will start on 12 January. High standards Companies and organisations seeking one of the new gTLDs will have to meet high technical standards, according to Bruce Tonkin, chief strategy officer at Melbourne IT, a domain registry service. "You need IT robustness and you need intellectual property protections beyond what is available in the dot com space. "You have to have 24/7 abuse team. You have to have mechanisms where a trademark holder has first right to get their name," he said. The higher standards, said Mr Tonkin, meant the application process would be extremely rigorous. "Using a real estate analogy, it would be roughly the equivalent of getting approval to build a sky scraper. "There's roughly 50 questions, roughly 2-3 pages per question. Icann will then use experts in each field to evaluate them. "The concern that some people have is that the standards of these buildings will be so high, that they will never get built. It will be too expensive," he said.
answer:
A global internet body has voted to allow the creation of new website domain suffixes, the biggest change for the online world in years.


question:
By Lucy WilliamsonBBC News, Arras, France Wilfred Owen's name is there. So is fellow poet Isaac Rosenberg's. There are rows of Smiths, and Wrights, and even some Camerons, but also Fleisches, Ernsts and Mullers. Almost 600,000 names - friends and former enemies - mingled together for the first time on a ring of panels, in strict alphabetical order. No ranks, no nationalities; just a dizzying list of the human stories that ended on France's northern battlefields. In a land dotted with war memorials this new "ring of remembrance" reorders the memory of World War One. One hundred years on, the mood here is not of a national loss, but a European one. A memorial that fits the era we live in, say its creators, reflecting Europe's current and remarkable period of unity and peace. It also honours the sense expressed by soldiers at the time, they say, of a shared experience and shared destiny with men from the other side. One of the names on the panel belongs to Geert Hindricks, from the 3rd Hannover Infantry Regiment. He described in a last letter to his wife how the German soldiers on the Western Front became friendly with their enemies in the British trench just 20m (65ft) away, warning each other when officers were passing by and sharing meat and cigarettes. "When you think about it," he wrote, "it's a sad affair when there's no animosity between the locals and the soldiers, and only those at the top can't agree on anything." For the officials of modern-day Europe, standing side-by-side at the site on Tuesday - French President Francois Hollande alongside German Defence Minister Ursula von der Leyen - this centenary is a visible sign of how much has changed. The reconciliation that grew out of the wars of the 20th Century put an end to inter-European conflicts stretching back hundreds of years. As the historian and philosopher Joseph Rovan puts it: "It took 23 Franco-German wars [since the 16th Century] to finally create Europe." Much of that progress has been down to the personal chemistry between Europe's post-war leaders. But the iconic friendship between France's Charles de Gaulle and Konrad Adenauer of Germany, and their post-war rapprochement, hasn't always been easy to emulate. The creators of the centenary monument have left part of the structure hanging above the gentle slope of Arras's fields - a reminder and a warning about the fragility of peace. With tensions rising between Paris, Berlin and London over how to govern Europe, and how to protect national interests within it, the anniversary is a chance for Europe's current leaders and decision-makers to reflect on the nature of brotherhood and what happens when it fails.
answer:

A new memorial to mark 100 years since the start of World War One has been inaugurated in northern France with the aim of focusing attention, not on the nations involved, but the individuals.
