Paul Stenhouse: Taylor's fans let down by Ticketmaster and Elon's ultimatum
18 NOV 2022 · Taylor Swift's fans feel let down by Ticketmaster
The pre-sale earlier this week was Ticketmaster's biggest event ever. To put it into perspective, they had 4x the number of system requests than their last peak. There were 3.5 million registered verified fans, who purchased 1.5 million tickets. There were long digital queues, and now resellers are taking advantage of the demand putting tickets back up on Ticketmaster's own site for thousands of dollars.
In a strange move, Ticketmaster has now canceled a public sale of her tickets “due to extraordinarily high demands on ticketing systems and insufficient remaining ticket inventory to meet that demand”. Seems to be a mixed message! Did they sell too many?
Taylor hasn't been on tour since 2018 so the Swifities are eager to see her IRL again.
Elon Musk's ultimatum to staff - are you hardcore or not?
Staff had to pledge they would be hardcore if they wanted to keep their jobs, or they'd be paid three months salary and need to leave. It seems hundreds of folks have left. Many of the teams that used to be critical to the operation of the site are either wiped out, or down to a couple of people.
There's a new policy for their Twitter Blue subscription service which gives you a verified checkmark - new accounts won't be able to buy the service for 90 days.

Nici Wickes: Coq au Vin aka Chicken in Wine
18 NOV 2022 · COQ AU VIN AKA CHICKEN IN WINE
Wine in cooking adds a certain something to a dish that is irresistible. Not only does the kitchen smell divine as it’s cooking but the taste is incredible – perfumed, aromatic, delicious.
Here is my very basic, no-fuss version of that French classic, coq au vin.
Serves four to six
20g butter
3 rashers smoky bacon, diced
2 medium onions, quartered
2 stalks celery (leave whole)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 whole chicken, cut into 8 pieces, excess fat removed (or use 6–8 chicken pieces)
1 cup red wine
1 cup vegetable or chicken stock
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
1 dozen small brown button mushrooms, stalks removed
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon flour and water to thicken (optional)
For this dish, use a large pot or flame/ovenproof casserole dish (Le Creuset or similar) that has a lid. Melt the butter in the pot and add the bacon, onion and celery stalks. Sauté until golden, remove and set aside.
Add the olive oil to the pot and brown the chicken pieces. If necessary, do this in 2–3 batches so as not to overcrowd the pot.
Once finished browning, return the chicken, bacon, onion and celery to the pot. Add the wine and bring to a rapid simmer for 2 minutes — this allows the alcohol to cook off. Add the stock, bay leaves and thyme.
Cover and simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour (or cover and cook in a preheated oven at 160°C for 1½ hours), until the chicken is very tender and wanting to fall away from the bone. Halfway through the cooking, add the mushrooms and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Just before serving you may choose to thicken the gravy slightly with flour mixed with a little water. Pour it into the pot and cook for a further 10 minutes. You want a sauce that is not too thick, not too thin, just right!
Serve with crusty bread.
Note: Without a doubt, this dish is better made the day before, cooled, then reheated. It deepens the flavours.
