guardian.co.uk	TITANIC ANNIVERSARY: THE IRISH VILLAGE WHERE THE SUFFERING STILL RUNS DEEP At precisely 2.20am on 15 April every year, a church bell is rung in the tiny County Mayo parish of Addergoole on the west coast of Ireland. As the sound echoes across the slopes of Nephin mountain and the surrounding boglands, residents gather in the churchyard to remember the night that changed the parish for ever. It was at this exact time that RMS Titanic disappeared into the inky waters of the Atlantic. The parish was then home to just a few hundred people, but 14 of them were on board the Titanic. It is believed to have been the greatest loss from the disaster suffered by any area. As the 100th anniversary approaches, residents say that it is impossible not to feel a connection with those emigrants who set out from the village a century ago – only three of the 14 survived and just one returned, though only briefly. Their loss is still felt keenly....	18th March 2012

telegraph.co.uk	BELFAST'S MONUMENT TO THE TITANIC TALE The World's Largest Titanic Visitor Experience opens on Saturday, just in time for the 100th anniversary of the sinking on April 15, 1912. Other places (Southampton, Liverpool, Nova Scotia) like to trumpet their Titanic connections but Belfast is determined to ensure that the rest of the world recognises its superior claim. It has spent £97m – Northern Ireland's biggest-ever outlay on a tourism project – on Titanic Belfast, a glittering edifice at the Harland and Wolff dockyards where the ship was built. Less-imaginative people might think a city which constructed a supposedly unsinkable liner that went down, with the loss of 1,517 lives, on its maiden voyage would be inclined to keep quiet about it. This is not the Belfast way. "Ah, you know how people here love to celebrate a disaster," as a taxi driver explains it. ("Gore tours" – trips around infamous atrocity spots during the Troubles – have been tourist offerings for years.) In any case, the firm line you'll hear from Belfast residents on the Titanic's subsequent tribulations is: "She was fine when she left here". ...	29th March 2012
