NEW YORK (AP) - Former President Clinton and Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton are being honored Thursday night at a gala at the newly refurbished Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum.

Both Clintons are scheduled to speak at the event, which kicks off the opening weekend of the Intrepid after a nearly two-year restoration. Next week, President Bush will deliver a Veterans Day address on the famed World War II aircraft carrier.

It will be the Clintons' first public appearance since Barack Obama was elected president.
