The Full Story: Abby Sunderland's solo circumnavigation of the globe at the age of 16, in a tiny sailboat, would have been noteworthy no matter what. But she didn't really break into the headlines until June, when her 40-foot sailboat, Wild Eyes, capsized in the Indian Ocean, about 2,000 miles from Australia. The world's eyes were glued to the dramatic rescue that ensued. The young sailor from Thousand Oaks, Calif., activated her emergency rescue plan, which included a set of flares. Meanwhile, her parents -- and then the world -- grew increasingly worried about her safety. After a few days, a French fishing vessel discovered Sunderland and brought her back to a French protectorate. The French and Australian governments footed the bill for Sunderland's rescue, but both governments later said they were happy to do so.
What's Happened Since? Since the theatrical rescue at sea, Sunderland has had plenty of media exposure. The 16-year-old gave a press conference a few days after her rescue. "My trip didn't end because of something I did wrong," she said. And what would a dramatic rescue at sea be without a book deal? Sunderland's planned book, "Unsinkable: A Young Woman's Courageous Battle on the High Seas," is being co-written by Lynn Vincent, who co-authored Sarah Palin's memoir. Sunderland's book won't be available until April 2011, according to her mother, but Amazon.com is already reserving copies. More recently, Sunderland has been visiting colleges and briefing NASA and Congress members, according to her blog.
In Her Own Words: "Crazy is the word that really describes everything that has happened best," Sunderland wrote on her personal blog after the storm.

Until March 2011 the hole over the Arctic region used to be very small compared with that of the Antarctic.
In a recent development, scientists representing 19 institutions from nine countries discovered that the ozone layer hole over the Arctic region has dramatically expanded to an alarming size during the winter of 2010 – 2011. Their findings stated that due to a high altitude wind pattern called the polar vortex, the region has suffered a loss of as much as 40 percent of ozone in the stratosphere from the start of winter until the end of March 2011, surpassing the previous seasonal loss that recorded only about 30 percent.
The ozone depletion is blamed on a combination of winter that gets much colder and lasts longer than it used to be, and the persistent presence of ozone-depleting man-made chemicals in the atmosphere, the most harmful of which is the chlorofluorocarbons or CFCs. The cold high-altitude weather activated the existing chemicals in the atmosphere. Although the concentration of CFCs in the atmosphere has considerably dropped after its production and consumption were ordered phased out by the Montreal Protocol, its presence still lingers, and will remain in the atmosphere for decades more before it can be contained.
The recent ozone layer depletion in the Arctic is seen to be so much more harmful than that of the Antarctic region. Although the winters in the Antarctic, which are normally longer and colder, and often, have 55 percent ozone depletion, its impact on human health is quite negligible since the region is virtually uninhabited, except for the southern tip of South America, which at times, comes under the ozone hole. The hole in the Arctic, which has become so thin like never before, covered two million square kilometers over Scandinavia, Greenland, northern Canada, and Russia. This means that more of the sun's harmful ultraviolet B rays can now easily penetrate through the atmosphere and directly hit the people in these areas, exposing them to health hazards, like skin cancer, cataracts, and damage to their immune system.
The ozone layer has been depleting over the years because of the increased level of concentration of free radicals, such as the hy-droxyl radicals, nitric oxide radicals and atomic chlorine, bromine, and the CFCs. The chlorofluorocarbon compounds, which are otherwise very stable in the lower atmosphere of the earth, break down in the stratosphere and release a free chlorine atom due to ultraviolet radiation, and consequently become responsible for almost 80 percent of the total depletion of ozone in the stratosphere. The chain of reaction starts when a free chlorine atom reacts with an ozone molecule to form chlorine monoxide and one molecule of oxygen. The chlorine monoxide then reacts with an ozone molecule to form a chlorine atom and two molecules of oxygen, and then the cycle is repeated over again to eventually deplete the ozone in the stratosphere. This ozone depletion is, therefore, a cause for concern because mankind becomes exposed to strong ultraviolet rays.
However, after scientists discovered the ozone layer hole in the Antarctic region in 1985, a number of governments pushed for stronger measures to reduce production and consumption of the man-made compounds that cause depletion of the ozone in the stratosphere. The United Nation's Montreal Protocol, which banned these chemicals, has successfully brought down the amount of ozone-depleting gases, albeit gradually.

Yong , Wilson Thau Lym and Henry, Erle Stanley and Abdullah , Janna Ong (2010) Enhancers of agrobacterium-mediated transformation of tibouchina semidecandra selected on the basis of GFP expression. Tropical Life Sciences Research, 21 (2). pp. 117-131. ISSN 2180-4249
Full text not available from this repository.
Genetic engineering is a powerful tool for the improvement of plant traits. Despite reported successes in the plant kingdom, this technology has barely scratched the surface of the Melastomataceae family. Limited studies have led to some optimisation of parameters known to affect the transformation efficiency of these plants. The major finding of this study was to optimise the presence of selected enhancers (e.g., monosaccharides (D-glucose, D-galactose and D-fructose), tyrosine, aluminium chloride and ascorbic acid) to improve the transformation efficiency of Tibouchina semidecandra. Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harbouring the disarmed plasmid pCAMBIA1304 was used to transform shoots and nodes of T. semidecandra. Different concentrations of the transformation enhancers were tested by using GFP as a reporter. The results obtained were based on the percentage of GFP expression, which was observed 14 days post-transformation. A combination of 120 μM galactose and 100 μM tyrosine supplemented with 600 μM aluminium chloride in the presence of 15 mg/L ascorbic acid gave the highest percentage of positive transformants for T. semidecandra shoots. Whereas 60 μM galactose and 50 μM tyrosine with 200 μM aluminium chloride in the presence of 15 mg/L ascorbic acid was optimum for T. semidecandra nodes. The presence of the hptII transgene in the genomic DNA of putative T. semidecandra transformants was verified by PCR amplification with specific primers.

I wouldn't be opposed to the new format if they still had the ads on the side, but if no ads are worthy of that top blue box they are all pushed down to the bottom and only a few ads (three at the most) make it onto the page.
I've been seeing this new layout in my Internet Explorer for about the past week. Things are normal in Firefox.

Citibus unveiled six new buses on Monday. The 35-foot long buses use an alternative, ultra-low sulfur fuel, and can carry 33 passengers.
They also feature a low-floor design, which allows handicap riders to board using a ramp rather than a wheelchair lift. The nearly $1.5 million project was funded through federal, state, and local agencies.

I wish him continued success, I enjoyed his athleticism over the years.
Is it primarily a speed skating rink? They might be banked a bit?
Oh this is sad news.
Well, the best of luck to Kevin in all his future endeavors!
Congrats to my ♥Baroque Rock Princess Adelina♥Meryl&Charlie♥Tatiana&Maxim♥!Team ♥Mirai♥Adam♥Julia♥D&W♥V&T♥
He is a real athlete and did the best he can, considering his natural abilities.
CONGARTS for this very good career !
"If I agree well it's just to appease you 'cause I don't remember what were fighting for..." - Sarah McLachlan
And now that Jenna is staying eligible, Kevin can become the male Euro version of Lisa Thornton-Weiss .
He is one of my favorite skaters. I will miss him. But I'm happy his last performance as a competitive skater was so great.
Thank you for a lot of wonderful performance, Kevin. Remember Belgian men have two spots for 2013 Euro.
Last edited by chrysanthemum; 04-06-2012 at 03:24 AM. Reason: For correcting typo
It's amazing what he was able to do considering the little ice time he had and the few resources as compared to other countries. Belgian skating owes him a lot.
In my spare time, I like to interview figure skating legends.
What a great interview! Very honest, I love it.
I will miss his great jumps! When will we see a 3-3-3 like that again?
Awwww, (((Kev))),
It reminds me of the story of the diva soprano (Caballe, IIRC?) who was given direction on where to move during her aria. Her reply was basically: I either sing or move, I don't do both at the same time.
We look forward to little Vandercorklles at the 2034 Olympics!
manleywoman, I hope if KvdP is ever somewhere that you can interview him (say with a Belgian skater at Worlds in Canada this coming year) that you will!
I´m so glad that his last performance at worlds was so good
Most memorable KVDP peformances???? Anyone?
I remember seeing him in an exhibition in The Netherlands years ago....and without the pressure of competition, (wish I could remember the music)...he had so much fun with the program and the audience! :-)
Great article. Not to change the topic too much here, but which female skater was he referring to who won Worlds with only 3 triples?
Never mind, I misread the article - he said a woman could win a competition with 3 triples, not that a woman did win Worlds with 3. My mistake

I sent this image to Dr. Paul after I made this sign to demonstrate at BO's visit last year here in Seattle.
Maybe we can come up with some good ideas for signs, bumperstickers or t-shirts.

Caring for Concrete Floors
Concrete Floor MaintenanceOnce a concrete floor is acid-stained, a concrete sealer is added to help resist water, stains, and dirt, and abrasives.
Keeping your floor clean will be relatively simple. You'll want to talk to the concrete contractor who stained your floor about specific instructions for the specific products and colors used for your floor.
There is often more than one way to do the job. If you called three companies for advice, don't be surprised if you get a couple different answers on how to clean the concrete.
For general cleaning, first try water and scrub with a soft, non-metallic brush to see if this removes the surface dirt.
If that doesn't work, step up to water with a mild soap, then water with a stronger soap, then water with a stronger soap plus ammonia.
If a sealer has been previously applied to the concrete surface, the surface may only need a light, general cleaning and to have the sealer reapplied or touched up in high traffic areas.
However, if the concrete has ground in dirt or grime, the substance should be removed prior to installing a sealer. And the surface must be penetrated to do so.
Cleaning polished concrete
Although keeping polished concrete shiny requires minimal effort and expense, some regular care is necessary.
Doug Demmert of Demmert and Associates recommends a simple maintenance program of occasional dusting to remove grit and damp mopping with a neutral cleaner to enhance the shine. Some manufacturers sell special cleaners and conditioners for polished concrete that not only clean the surface, but also leave behind a dirt-resistant film. These products can be applied with a mop or auto scrubber and do not require buffing.
With basic cleaning, polished concrete should keep its luster for years. Eventually, though, the shine can dull, especially in high-traffic areas. Fortunately, it's easy to restore the gleam. Sometimes simply buffing the floor with a commercial polishing compound will do the trick. If more touch-up is necessary, the floors can be lightly repolished with a fine-grit abrasive.

Quote:Thank you. I will try that. So, if I am facing west, and I push the up arrow, it will slew left toward Polaris?
Uncle Rod Uncle Rod's Astroblog: http://uncle-rods.blogspot.com/
Quote:So, if I am facing west and I want to go left (west). Which button would you push?
Quote:Push the one that makes it go west Forget which button that is. Once your in the EP, things will change again. N-S-E-W may or may no be top-bottom-left-right depending on Diag being present where and how the scope is pointed.
Quote:So the RA is controlled by the arrows pointing up and down and the Dec is controlled by the arrows pointing side to side? Have I got that right?
Quote:The up/down buttons slew you toward or away from Polaris (up = toward). The left and right buttons slew in a circle around Polaris (right = counterclockwise).
Quote: Thanks to all for first clarifying everything and then confusing me all over again.
Quote:You say "when you (finally) get an object in the ep, lock the clutches and let the mount track"I had no idea that if I get something within the eyepiece by slewing with the buttons that it would track whatever is in the eyepiece. How will the mount know to track that object?

Quote:I've always wondered why the first alignment star is so far off. I mean, I do a pretty good polar alignment by hand now but no matter where the first alignment star is it's usually at least 5 to 10 degrees off.
Quote:A friend came over last night to help me get an alignment. He has the same CG-5 mount. Before he got there, I got Polaris through my polar scope and had him take a look. He said that I was quite a bit off. I had aligned Polaris in the large circle and not the smaller circle. Man, I was doing it all wrong. I thought that Cassiopia and the big dipper were in the polar scope just to make it look nice. He showed me how to turn the polar scope so that the big dipper is in the same position that it is in the sky and to get Polaris inside of the really small circle. After we got that done, I was able to get an alignment but I still can't get used to the movement of the mount. That cheat sheet that I made up was of no use. Because it took so long to get the alignment, I only slewed to Saturn but it went right there. By then, it was after midnight and I had to go to work the next day so I slewed to Polaris and then put it in hibernate mode. Now, when I wake it up, hopefully it will be close to alignment.

2009 season
In 2009, Favre signed with the Vikings, further driving a divide between himself and the Packers fanbase that revered him. Favre went on to have one of the best statistical seasons of his career, throwing 33 touchdown passes and only seven interceptions. He led Minnesota to a 12-4 record and to the NFC Championship Game.

Being under falling water demonstrates the principle of charging. A twelve foot drop of a small stream is comfortable but powerful enough for your mind to pick up what is happening to your body, although with quiet meditative focus you can begin to rapidly discover your own shower provides the same effect, which you can focus on and amplify with practice.
You will step out from under the water so energized, your body literally vibrationally tuned to the liquid fractal staccato pulses in four dimensions of the water molecules as they separate and clump suspended in mid air as gravity pulls them toward you the center of gravity in your universe is the center of the universe. Which from your perspective is you. So everything is pulled toward you, or held away by you.
The four dimensional falling water (3 of space and one of time) creates a fifth dimensional experience when your mind places your body in the flow. You are having a 5th dimensional experience.
As you begin to practice the energy of falling water either high or low you can tune your awareness to pick up finer and finer versions of the same thing. Down to the energy field of another person or even light (beyond the obvious warmth clue).
As you tune your neurology to the finer versions of the water fall exercise whole new classes of energy/data begin to appear. This is what we call The Synchronicity. The world around you seems to arrange itself in your senses into meaningful energetic patterns.
You are shifting into a 5th dimensional realm. Let go. And learn to navigate it. It feels a little weird at first.

Welcome to the Ham Shack!
It all began with a simple blog post, trying to gage the level of interest in articles about Open Source Software supporting the Amateur Radio community. Well, actually, it started with a conversation in the #linuxjournal IRC room, which became a blog, and a flood of email, in a good way, and then, well, the January 2010 Linux Journal focusing on Amateur Radio and Open Source and then to this, our own little Ham Shack here at the Linux Journal. And while I do not think we will be having an antenna party anytime soon, I look forward to what should be an interesting exchange of ideas, knowledge, tips, tricks and traps on everything that the Open Source Communities of software, hardware and Amateur Radio have to offer.
So welcome! Do not be shy and let us see where this will take us. Because, When all else fails...
Roger that!
You got it. Give me a few days to get my feet back under me. We have a BUNCH! In the meantime...
New to Amateur Radio: Hello Radio
Amateur Radio and Linux: Linux in the Ham Shack
More to come! Soon! I am typing, really...and so is the horde of penguins under my desk.

Just in time for Christmas
Congratulations on unleashing some pent up demand, David. Now I guess maybe I'll go find the rusty old key to the penguin locker under my desk and give my feeble brain yet another path to follow. Seems like it 's time to have some fun again.

I like that! Might have to do up a presentation on Linux and ARES too. I feel a training session coming soon to an EOC near you.

Linux has become a key foundation for supporting today's rapidly growing IT environments. Linux is being used to deploy business applications and databases, trading on its reputation as a low-cost operating environment. For many IT organizations, Linux is a mainstay for deploying Web servers and has evolved from handling basic file, print, and utility workloads to running mission-critical applications and databases, physically, virtually, and in the cloud. As Linux grows in importance in terms of value to the business, managing Linux environments to high standards of service quality — availability, security, and performance — becomes an essential requirement for business success.

If you already use virtualized infrastructure, you are well on your way to leveraging the power of the cloud. Virtualization offers the promise of limitless resources, but how do you manage that scalability when your DevOps team doesn't scale? In today's hypercompetitive markets, fast results can make a difference between leading the pack vs. obsolescence. Organizations need more benefits from cloud computing than just raw resources. They need agility, flexibility, convenience, ROI, and control.
Stackato private Platform-as-a-Service technology from ActiveState extends your private cloud infrastructure by creating a private PaaS to provide on-demand availability, flexibility, control, and ultimately, faster time-to-market for your enterprise.

text: Thinking of the times we use to share Wishing I could turn back the hands of time So those times will once again be here And you my star once more shine. I never cease reminiscing Walking down memory lane Into fantasy world, always drifting Seeking to ameliorate this pain. Tenaciously, the past holds onto me Thoughts of you have become my daily companion What shall my fate be? This truth seems a chameleon. My life has become a troubled ship On the world a turbulent sea Out of reality I always and constantly slip Into a far away destination my mind's eyes can't see. Life has lost its flavour 'Cos you've abducted my life's loveliness Its blissfulness I can no longer savour You've thrown me into the hands of loneliness. I wonder where those times are And wish this is a dream That wont venture far Before being washed away by reality's stream. But wishes ain't horses So I must trod this hard road of reality Wishes are mere fantasies For real we are now history.

If thats a real boot time then woohoo
Why hibernate if the boot sequence is 5 seconds (I know, you get to keep your documents open - seriously how many do you work on?
I'd love a machine that booted that fast, I might even turn it off overnight. Shame most POST sequences take longer than that...
"boot time of five seconds"
Still not as fast as Apricot's "instant" start-up of Windows, but maybe they were exaggerating. I wonder..?

Military spending as another cause of the failure of the PPP
In a recent article, with a strong theoretical argument but poor empirical support, military spending was identified to be a determinant of real exchange rate or a factor causing the PPP to deviate from equilibrium exchange rate. The poor empirical results were mostly due to a small number of observations (21 cross-sectional). This article employs pooled data from across 37 developing countries over the 1985-1998 period and provides very strong empirical support for the notion that indeed increased military spending could cause the PPP to deviate from equilibrium exchange rate.Download Info

Arrr! 6 famous pirate quotes to share with your mates
In honor of International Talk Like a Pirate Day, here are 6 fictional pirate quotes to help ye land lubbers get into the spirit of the day.
Blackbeard"If I don't kill a man every now and then, they forget who I am." Blackbeard was a notorious English pirate of the 1700s who also became a fixture in fictional works, most recently in the film "Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides." Blackbeard is portrayed as the heartless captain of the ship "Queen Ann's Revenge" who is on a quest to find the Fountain of Youth. Long John Silver"There's never a man looked me between the eyes and seen a good day a'terward." Long John Silver was crafted by Robert Louis Stevenson in his book "Treasure Island" published in 1883. He was a one-legged pirate who craftily hid his dark side until the opportune moment. Captain Hook"Yo ho, yo ho, the frisky plank, You walks along it so, Till it goes down and you goes down To Davy Jones below!" Though possibly more well-known as a Disney character, Captain Hook was first created in 1904 by J. M. Barrie in his classic play, "Peter Pan." Dread Pirate Roberts"Good night, Westley. Good work. Sleep well. I'll most likely kill you in the morning." The Dread Pirate Roberts is a character mentioned in the 1987 film "The Princess Bride," who takes farm boy Westley prisoner on his ship. He is never seen, but quoted by Westley mid-way through the film as he recounts his experience. Captain Jack Sparrow"Well, then, I confess. It is my intention to commandeer one of these ships, pick up a crew in Tortuga, raid, pillage, plunder, and otherwise pilfer my weaselly black guts out." Captain Jack Sparrow is a fixture in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" movie franchise, known for his strange mannerisms, trickery and passion for rum. Captain Barbossa"Better were the days when mastery of seas came not from bargains struck with eldritch creatures... but from the sweat of a man's brow and the strength of his back alone. You all know this to be true!" Also a character in the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, Captain Hector Barbossa was first introduced as a cursed mutineer in "The Curse of the Black Pearl." He dies in the end of the film, but is brought back to life in the next installment of the series, "Dead Man's Chest." |

I read a post by Josh here on Planet Green about using urine in the garden. One of the commenters stated that using urine was completely unsanitary, which is a common statement when the subject of human waste comes up. Earlier in the day, I read an article from Mother Jones about the value of using urine as an organic fertilizer. It appears that we Americans are way behind in recognizing the agricultural value of urine. From the Mother Jones article: "For more than a decade, 130 households in Stockholm, Sweden, have collected their urine--nearly 40,000 gallons of it per year--and trucked it off to be sprayed on crops. More than 600,000 Chinese households in at least 17 provinces use special urine-diverting toilets to fertilize crops such as sugarcane, watermelons, and peanuts. Farming communities in 17 African countries have also taken up the practice of collecting urine. And in the central Mexican village of Tepoztlán, an environmental group wheels a urine-collecting porta-potty to fiestas and uses the cache on local fields."
Human urine is a very high-quality fertilizer. It is so high-quality, in fact, that a single person's urine would be enough to fertilize up to one tenth of an acre of vegetables for an entire year. There is a certain grossness factor that would undoubtedly turn some people off of the whole idea of using urine on their veggie garden, but before we blow this off as just one more outlandish idea, let's look at what's really going on here.
Set aside the issue of bodily fluids and letting them loose in the garden for a moment. Let's look at what good fertilizers consist of. On any bag of either synthetic or organic fertilizer you would buy, there are three numbers commonly known as the NPK ratio.
- N stands for nitrogen, which is important for stem and leaf development.
- P stanks for phosphorous, which aids root development, as well as flower and fruit production.
- K stands for potassium, which provides for general overall plant health and disease-resistance.
While I have yet to see an NPK ratio for human urine, we do know that it is high in nitrogen, and also provides good doses of phosphorous and potassium. In fact, in a 2007 Washington Post story, they followed a study in which human urine was used to fertilize cabbage (cabbage was chosen because it requires a lot of nitrogen for strong growth). The study found that the cabbages fertilized with human urine were larger at harvest, grew to their maximum size more quickly, and suffered less insect damage than cabbages grown with conventional fertilizers.
One concern that has been raised about using urine as a fertilizer, especially for edible crops, is that any pharmaceuticals that a person is taking could be passed along to the soil and plants via the urine. In the Washington Post story, one of the lead scientists in the cabbage study said that any pathogens that survived in the urine would have to battle it out with microorganisms that already exist in the soil. He also said that, most likely, those pathogens would lose.
Tips for Using Urine as Fertilizer
- It's probably best to dilute your urine by mixing it with water. A 50/50 mix would probably be best.
- Don't apply urine directly to the plants. Use it to water the soil around the plants instead.
- If you take a lot of medications, you might want to steer clear of using your urine as fertilizer. It seems to me that the microorganisms have enough to deal with.
- If you'd rather not use urine to fertilize your garden, you can add it to the compost pile.
I know this idea isn't for everyone, but it's an interesting concept, and both the Mother Jones and Washington Post articles touted human urine as a possible option for farmers and gardeners who are low on cash. What do you think? Have you used urine in your garden?

One great thing about Google Docs (and an Internet connection, of course) would be the fact that you are able to access your files just about anytime, anywhere, regardless of whether you are tethered to your desktop or running around with a smartphone or notebook. Well, for those who do not print that many pages in their everyday course of work but do need a printer to spit out one page or two once every couple of months, perhaps you might be interested in what FedEx Office offers.
Their new service is known as the FedEx Office Print Online, where you are able to upload and access your Google Docs directly from their site, select the kind of files to print, and customize your printing options. Once your order is done, just pick up the prints at a local FedEx Office retail location, or you can also opt to have the printed copy end up at your doorstep.
Talk about the Internet making the world a truly smaller place – of course, if you're going to print a whole semester's worth of work, I'd highly recommend getting your very own printer – it is much more cost effective that way.

Axiomatic districting
In a framework with two parties, deterministic voter preferences and a type of geographical constraints, we propose a set of simple axioms and show that they jointly characterize the districting rule that maximizes the number of districts one party can win, given the distribution of individual votes (the 'optimal gerrymandering rule'). As a corollary, we obtain that no districting rule can satisfy our axioms and treat parties symmetrically. --Download Info

Bangladesh v West Indies Test Series 2012
2nd Test
Sheikh Abu Naser Stadium
West Indies are on the brink of claiming a 2-0 Test series whitewash over Bangladesh after another day of dominance in Khulna.
After amassing a mammoth 648-9 declared - a first-innings lead of 261, West Indies then reduced Bangladesh to 226-6 at stumps on the penultimate day.
The bleak scenario means Bangladesh still require another 35 runs to avoid an innings defeat.
Shakib Al-Hasan bravely held up Windies with a counter-attacking 97, however he fell three runs short of his century to Veerasammy Permaul, in what turned out to be the final delivery of the day.
West Indies, who won the first Test of the two-match series by 77 runs in Dhaka last week, had looked set to wrap-up victory inside four days when three wickets for Tino Best reduced Bangladesh to 88-5 at tea.
However Shakib and Nasir Hossain (64no) led a spirited fightback, only for Permaul to end their 144-run partnership and surely any hopes of avoiding a defeat.
West Indies had earlier declared with a lead of 261, moving on from their overnight 564-4 to 648-9 with left-handed lynchpin Shivnarine Chanderpaul unbeaten on 150.
Pace bowlers Best and Fidel Edwards then made immediate inroads into the Bangladesh top order, the latter trapping Nazimuddin lbw just three balls into the innings.
Best clean bowled Tamim Iqbal (28) and Naeem Islam (2) in quick succession and Shahriar Nafees (21) swiftly became the Barbados bowler's third wicket from a superb spell.
Shakib rallied gamely, finding the boundary on 10 occasions and clearing it once, but failed to see out the day when Permaul lured him into a rash shot and Best held a skier at mid off.

Yeah I'm not 100% about my welding to say I would be doing it safely. I'm also not certain my machine will do steel that thick and get full penetration. My next door neighbor is a welder by trade so I could get him to do it, or at least look over my shoulder. I would like to learn to weld good enough to have that sort of confidence, but I realize the learning curve for that is very steep.
100% sure. I bought it from a friend, who claims it's been stuck for "a while"
I guess I'll just keep at it. I may end up cutting the back off with the portaband. At the very least, that will let me get some pb blaster on the other end
