We are double world champions
Posted in ICC World Twenty20
I'm sure by now everyone would have heard about our semi-final clash against the Aussies in which we had the game of our lives (well with our batting anyway). Not knowing what a good score would be on the Oval we decided to bowl first. All didn't go to plan as they came at us and we had no answer to it.
We didn't get a breakthrough until they had 78 on the board. The Aussies lost firstly Nitschke for 37 and then the very next ball Poulton for 39. This slowed them down slightly but then they managed to kick on again towards the end as they had wickets in hand.
They finished with 163 for five, which was a big score but we still felt in with a chance because the angles of the pitch and the wicket was like a road (flat, quick and good).
We lost Sarah Taylor early and were reduced to 43 for two. We didn't realise how close the game was until a comparison of our scores came up in the 10th over and we were exactly level. The crowd was starting to build up and really got behind us and think this helped us kick on and even though there were quite a few nerves around the dug out we were relieved when Claire Taylor hit a four to win the game with three balls to spare.
It was the partnership between Claire (76) and Beth Morgan (46) that won us the game. I've never seen batting quite like it especially under the amount of pressure they were both under with a finals day spot at Lord's for the winners.
Our celebrations consisted of our usual team song of Never Forget by Take That, sung loud and proud at the back of our team bus. It had to be one of the best trips back and showed how close we are as a team - but that was as far as our celebrations went as we were all very tired after a big day.
We knew the big game was yet to come against the Kiwis, who were going to be out for revenge for the last final they lost to us back in March.
We had training the next day at Lord's and they are the nicest tracks to bat on, but the worse to bowl on (I'm just happy I'm an all-rounder!). It was a good practice and everyone was so pumped for the final it just couldn't come round quick enough.
To play a finals day at the Home of Cricket in your own country is amazing and warming up at 8.30am we were shocked when the stands were already starting to fill up.
We won the toss and chose to bowl first again, and we got a breakthrough very early with Laura Marsh bowling Bates for one to get us going.
Katherine Brunt came firing in from the other end and removed the very dangerous Aimee Watkins (Mase) to kick start the fall of wickets. She bowled a fine spell of four overs, three for only six runs. Every bowler chipped in and came back well from our performance in the semi-final. They managed to get to 85 and we were pretty happy with chasing that total.
We set off at a steady ready and were going a long nicely but just lost our way a little in the middle before Claire Taylor steadying the ship with a fine 39 not out, including hitting the winning runs for us. I was out in the middle when we won and kind of made up for missing the 50-over final a couple of months ago - and we are now double World Champions, which doesn't happen too often.
Our celebrations were on hold as we stayed to watch the men's final. We were allowed to go and sit with friends and family and walking over to the stand dressed still in England gear, two Sri Lankans came up to me and asked me to help them to their seats as they thought I worked there!
I happily helped them as I didn't have the heart to tell them who I was (my good deed for the day!).
We had two days off before we had to report back to Derby the day before our next game. Our next match was strange as it was another Twenty20 against the Aussies. We lost the toss and were bowling first.
They came at us again and raced away to 55 before the first wicket. Every batter got going but it was Rolton with 43 and Ebsary 24 off 13 balls that did the damage towards the end. They posted 151 for three, and in reply we lost wickets at regular stages and never really got going.
Claire Taylor hit 31 off 23 balls but with not much support. I was given a bit of stick from Rene Farrell when I came out to bat; and a lot of people have asked me that they thought we were best friends. But I was taught growing up by my dad that you have no friends on the pitch, only enemies, so once you cross that white line there's only one thing on your mind, to win!
We ended up losing by 34 runs and was strange that one day you can be on top and then the next lose, guess that's Twenty20 cricket for you.
We now head down to Chelmsford to get our 50-over series off and running. We play on Monday followed by a day-nighter ODI the day after. Our big summer of cricket continues!

"It's hard to look at what's going on in our society today and not get discouraged, but I like to think that the better angels of our beings will win in the end, and that the importance of a pop band or a pop record will take its proper place. I think of being an entertainer as a high calling. For that 15 minutes that your record's on or that hour and a half you're on stage, you are taking someone out of their daily life and moving them in some way and giving them enjoyment, and that's a high calling. But it's no higher calling than a plumber when you have a leaky faucet and need your faucet fixed. You don't want a pop star. You want a plumber. Society just places more importance on pop stars, and the people who do that take on these mantles are absolutely ridiculous. I am suspect of anyone who would want to treat me that way--good or bad. If you don't like our music, don't listen to it. It's pretty simple.

virginity is a societal construct, but a first time is still a stressful situation with or without the "purity" spectre. They don't call it "getting intimate" for no reason.
mmm… yes. This is good. We like this. Bring Us more of this, Buzzfeed. You shall be handsomely rewarded from Our fortunes.
in all honesty my ideal guy would be bisexual (I'm a straight girl). Even just him recounting past male-male encounters would be completely arousing for me.
I think it's telling that most people who cry "apartheid" as soon as the hear "Israel" have never set foot in the country. The Jewish Israelis and the Arab Israelis that I saw during my last visit lived peacefully side by side. They did business with each other. Employed one another. Women were allowed to do as they pleased and there was no more racial tension on the average sidewalk there than there is in the US.
Hunting down the one Chinese restaurant in the county that is open on Christmas Day. I will not let my ancestral tradition die!
Daleks are not robots. They are living, mutant creatures inside a cybernetic armor shell. Cyborgs are not robots. K-9 is a robot. So that part is accurate.
He isn't Chilean. He's Spanish and practices in Chile. Spain is a fully developed European country (if currently economically unstable). Also, it's quite small minded to assume that Chile has low standards based (I assume) on the fact that it's in South America. Chile is quite developed and prosperous, not just for South America. Not to mention that the economy in Chile is, at the moment, far better than in Spain. Also, it takes seven years of schooling and two years of internship to become a fully fledged medical doctor in Chile, this is comparable to much of Western Europe.
I would actually feel really awkward being examined by a OB that I found sexually attractive, Also, the moment you become his patient all chance of a social relationship is immediately removed from the situation. So, all in all, I do not want to be his patient. But I wouldn't mind meeting him at a bar.
I could watch the gig in #9 forever
not homemade candy corn. it's a bit on the difficult side but tastes fantastic.
you bet your tuchus we do.
Same here. Somethings are sacred (literally) and co-opting them for secular pop culture is gross and disrespectful.
it's a shofar. The animal from which the horn is taken depends entirely on which community of Jews you're looking at. Long, twisting shofars originated with Yemenite Jews whereas bulls' horn shofars are found in Israel and in Eastern Europe. The big ones are popular in the US because they are quite awesome to look at, but smaller ones are easier to use.
I totally posted the same quote just now. Drunk Ted and a pineapple. Yes indeed
#12. Isn't that hauntingly beautiful?
and for all these reasons and so many more "Harry Potter" will be required reading for any children I have and "Twilight" will be banned with possession punishable by horrors yet to be conceived of.
I love her facial expressions. all of them. always.
#2. Only other American BBC fans can comprehend the agony of Doctor Who and Sherlock hiatuses. No, waiting three months for the next season isn't hard. Waiting three months to resolve the MID-season cliff hanger is hard. Waiting six months for the anniversary and then another month for the Christmas special is hard. How about almost TWO YEARS between seasons. Non anglophiles will never understand.
I'm not even gay but I had experience with #9. My two best friends are gay and don't know each other. My father suggested I set them up. Umm… No. They are not even sort of compatible beyond both liking dudes.
is it weird that I want Mandy Patinkin to be higher?
bought the digital version (pictures only). I'm not waiting for the thing to ship to California.
but that character was played, in large part, for humor. "Rich guy has a trans fetish, hahaha".
not burned, recorded over until the tape wore out, then disposed of. but yeah, First Doctor is mostly lost to us. there are audio recordings though.
#6 makes me want to go Wales. A lot.
#19 is definitely a hen and she is offended by the male pronouns used to refer to her.
Buzzfeed can't tell an ovine from a caprine.
#4 is also wearing strappy high heels.
when my sister was in the video production class at our high school her group made a silent film about two boys in love with their calculators. it won them a private tour of Pixar.
as one of the many (MANY) white kids at a school with literally only five black kids I am only guilty of one of these things. I was obsessed with my friend's 'fro-hawk. He had the best hair-cut I've ever seen. It nearly broke my heart when he had to shave it for the school play.
John is gay. He has a civil partner.
buzzfeed forgot to include the explanation of how the product works. makes it much more appealing when you know it's strategically placed vibrating drivers that create the sensation. NOT electric shocks.
I love you and I love this GIF.
I was thinking exactly the same thing yesterday. Especially the "pronounced normally, spelled weird" names. Like they couldn't decide if the kid should fit in or stand out.
I have a normal name that is next to impossible to hear correctly. "H"s at the beginnings of words are so soft I almost always end up as Anna instead. And it bothers the ever loving sh*t out of me.
why would anyone complain to OMM about a Geico add? wouldn't they, if offended, complain to Geico?
I'm with you. Originated Che in Evita on Broadway. Putting it Together! And one of my most memorable experiences was seeing him, live, in Compulsion at Berkeley Rep, it was AMAZING!
#17 it think we still have a bottle of cinnamon scented spray that my sisters used for me. I knew I'd have better luck getting either of them up instead of our parents and they kept my monsters at bay. Love my sisters.
it's time for Animaniacs, and we're zany to the max!
Not a twin myself, but I have heard that the "feel each others' pain" thing between identical twins may be based in the fact that they have very similar brain wave patterns. Just an interesting tidbit. Also, you forgot Nicholas Brendon and his brother Kelly Donovan. Identical twins, Kelly was Nick's stunt-double on Buffy, and the episode with two Xanders featured both of them.

Certain songs are so closely associated with a specific show and moment in television that it feels like blasphemy when another series dare use it for its own soundtrack. Here are 10 songs that shows need to avoid from here on out:
Phyllis Diller
Her laugh is as legendary as her one-liners. A cross between Burgess Meredith as the Penguin and Sesame Street's Count, Phyllis Diller's signature cackle cracks up anyone within earshot. Unfortunately, it's impossible to hear (or even spell) in print, which is one of the many reasons why you should see Goodnight, We Love You, a loving and revealing documentary about the groundbreaking comedian that arrives on DVD today. In between riotous clips from her 2002 farewell concert, Diller offers an unprecedented peek at her private life and her outrageous wardrobe. TVGuide.com joked with the octogenarian stand-up about her five decades in showbiz, her plastic surgery and her ill-fated Playboy spread.
TVGuide.com: Hello, Ms. Diller? Phyllis Diller: Hello, Raven? Oh, you're a lady! [Laughs.] I heard your name and figured you would be a man.

First off, since all you loyal readers were so helpful last week in trying to figure out what Walt said — either "Don't push the button, the button is bad" or "Push the button, no button is bad" — by listening to it played backward, this week's quest is to try to figure out the name of the company that is on all the logos in the supply room, on Desmond's shirt and, weirdly enough, on that shark. Hmm... something's fishy there. And if anyone has a clue as to what the 237, 236 then 108,000 countdown clock means, I'd also be interested in hearing thoughts on that. Or on what would happen if the numbers weren't entered in time? Oh, and are Apollo candy bars real, or is that another in-joke? Anyway, these were the most coherent questions I had after I finally calmed my heart palpitations and got the Mama Cass song out of my head again. With Sawyer's mid-ocean self-surgery, Michael's near-drowning experience, Sawyer's shark-bait swim with a predator,

Question: What can you tell me about the song playing on the record player in the hatch last week on Lost? I keep thinking the lyrics are some kind of clue.
Answer: It's called "Make Your Own Kind of Music," and it's sung by Mama Cass. I can't seem to find any hidden messages in the lyrics, but then again, it never dawned on me to play Walt's creepy message backward. I also didn't realize the guy who died in Jack's flashback had the same last name as Shannon. Or notice the cursed numbers were printed on Desmond's pill bottle. Or....
What I love most about Lost is that — cue up the record player — it makes its own kind of music. (And whoever that cat Desmond is who's living in quarantine in the hatch, we at least are kindred spirits when it comes to Mama Cass.)
The playfully surreal opening sequence of Lost's season premiere blew my mind, and the rest of the suspenseful, emotionally compelling episode put my mind at ease. Not that I was listening to the naysayers over the summer who, peeved at all the cliff-hangers from May's finale, were drooling that this fabulous fable was all tease and no payoff.
So much for that theory. I haven't a clue why this mystery man is living under the island, surrounded by retro gizmos, computers and guns as he works out, guzzles health shakes, and injects himself with some drug that seems to share Hurley's lottery numbers (other fans have to tell me such things, because I simply can't retain that m

Education Management says court denied motion filed by Marblegate
Education Management announced that the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York has denied the motion filed by Marblegate Asset Management and Magnolia Road Capital seeking to preliminarily enjoin the company from consummating its proposed debt restructuring. The court denied the injunction based on, among other things, the balance of equities and the public interest. The court also concluded on a preliminary basis that the plaintiffs are likely to succeed on the claim they have asserted under the Trust Indenture Act. The company respectfully disagrees with that aspect of the opinion and, based on the court's order, plans to move forward promptly with the restructuring.

Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO examined the tax consequences to veterans of the required offset of certain types of Department of Defense separation pay and Department of Veterans Affairs disability compensation, focusing on whether veterans could: (1) reclassify separation pay as disability compensation; and (2) deduct recouped separation pay from gross income. GAO noted that according to the Internal Revenue Service, veterans may: (1) not reclassify separation pay as disability compensation; (2) not deduct recouped separation pay from gross income; and (3) retroactively exclude part of their lump-sum separation pay from gross income if they also qualify for disability compensation.

BOX JOINT JIGcomments (0) July 27th, 2014 in Jigs
I have been looking around for a box joint jig lately but decided to design one where I don't have to set the blade width and opted for a adjustable advance mechanism to match the finger width to the slot cut by the cutter .This is a simple sliding table with a fence that slides on a dovetail way and a clamping setup that is mounted on a sliding carriage that is controlled by two adjustable stops in travel length .The parts to be machined are inserted and clamped by the bar clamp at the front of the jig and held square by the end stop which is typical for this type of jig .The carriage is set for the beginning cut and held in position by the clamp located at the top rear of the jig .To set the fence for the second cut I hold the fence with my left hand and release the clamp with my right hand and slide the clamping carriage to the opposite stop and lock it on the clamping rail and then slide the fence and clamping carriage over to the other stop and cut the second slot.This same procedure is repeated until the fingers and slots are cut .I remove the material from the jig but leave the fence locked in place for the next cutting sequence To cut the opposing end I simply flip the boards end for end and start cutting the board using the setup in reverse direction .So far the results are better then I expected and I will add a safety shield and a turret at the adjustable stops to accommodate different sizes of joint width .This is a proto type and when complete it will likely include some improvements and changes in safety .I used a stop block to limit the travel of the sled clamped to the saw to prevent the cutter from exiting through the safety block at the back of the jig but it does not show in the pictures or video .Let me know what your opinion of this is and also any improvements that can be made I would appreciate it .

I can make this a poll if we get some examples of ratios etc to post as options.
We could make it more general, how many IT staff to PC ratio?
I have been asked to come and help sort out some ICT problems within a school in Norfolk. I was really surprised to find that there was not a stand alone ICT support department?! Instead the ICT system and network management and first, second and third line support is covered by 2 ICT teachers that teach for at least half of their week?
Can you guys let me know what the ratio of ICT technicians to computers/users is at your school, schools you have worked in?
Thanks in advance for any responses,
I can make this a poll if we get some examples of ratios etc to post as options.
We could make it more general, how many IT staff to PC ratio?
This was discussed somewhere else... computer:tech ratio
But becta guidlines are:
Badly run network - 100:1
Well run network - 150:1
Last edited by mossj; 27th April 2009 at 04:05 PM.
We have 850 workstations inc laptops, 100 IWB and speaker systems, 120 Printers. 2000 students 250 staff.
2 x technicians
1 x admin (printer credits passwords etc
1 x manager (technical as well as software install etc)
Last edited by rad; 27th April 2009 at 07:44 PM.
That would be great!
looking through a Becta paper on implementing FITS, they had 6 schools that had these ratios of PCs to ICT Technicians:
With around 400 machines and 1200 users (students and staff) we've got 1.5 technicians (myself and someone part time!) although that's moving to two of us full time in the summer.
From that you've got 200:1 ratio
2 schools on 1 site
4 networks
6 servers
150 ish PCs/laptops
1 Network Manager/ICT Tech/Dogs Body/ anything else (Me)
Seems to cope ok
Has anyone heard of a school without a full time technician?
Most Primary Schools i think
Theres two schools(primary & a Highschool (that closed down)) in the area we used to support that didn't have one (we just went there once a week)... does that count?
This is a Secondary school with 700 users, 250 pc's 60 laptops 20 interactive whiteboards and no full time technician? I was just rather suprised!?
I thought it was 50 to 1 for an inefficient IT Dept or very old equipment 150 to 1 for an efficient IT Dept with new kit?
250 PCs & Laptops (give or take a few), 2 ICT technicians & me managing, I do as much support as my time allows so realistically 2.5-ish, haha.
I think considerations need to be made for your network too, I would rather have 400 computers, 2 members of staff and myself with HP printers, standardised builds on PCs, Dell laptops, SMS and lots of other really cool bits than my current network setup of a mixmatch of Toshiba, Acer, HP, some makes i'm not even sure about, although in time it'll be what i want...

In Pokémon, there are lots of different moves used by different Pokémon. However, there are certain moves we don't normally see being used, heard about, or used in a meaningful manner. On the other hand, there are moves we see that are famous or used often. In this type of discussion, we shall discuss the ins-and-outs of the move of the topic, and there will be some base questions that would help you start this off. Every Saturday, a different move will be the centre of discussion.
(Click picture to go to the Bulbapedia page)
This is our first time covering a signature move. In this case, it is only learned by our fellow cog-based Pokémon introduced in Generation 5. This move, along with Gear Grind, makes them really unique indeed. When this move is used, it will give the user a single Attack boost and two Speed boosts! Essentially, this is an upgraded Dragon Dance. Perhaps you could use your imagination on the question of other potentially qualified users since it's a signature move.Quote:
Originally Posted by In-game Description (Move)
Here are the usual possible questions about this move:
- How do these Gear Pokémon use this move?
- What kind of purpose would this move have for them (in the Pokémon World)?
- How could this move be used to aid a profession in the Pokémon World?
- Realistically, would there be any advantage or disadvantage associated with using this move? If yes, what kind of advantage/disadvantage would the user have when they use it?
- Could this move realistically be used by any Pokémon who doesn't learn it normally? If yes, please explain your choices.
- How would this move be used in battling, realistically or video game-wise?
Other questions (You could ask other critical questions beyond the listed):
- What kind of change will happen if this move is used?
- Is it possible for these gears to be overworked if this move is used too much?
Here are the current users of this move:
- Klink, Klang & Klinklang
Thanks for reading, and happy discussing!

Easy-to-fit lightweight polystyrene coving that is easy to fit and provides a perfect finish
£1.47 per M
Easy-to-fit lightweight polystyrene coving that is easy to fit and provides a perfect finish
"Sceptical at first as always used plaster coving in past but 3m lengths always difficult to do so decided to give it a go. Was very impressed with quality and ease with which it went up- even the 3m lengths. VERY difficult to get nice joins and couldn't understand why. In the end I offset slightly the plaster coving mitre box I had and got some perfect joins, even the external corners. Once painted you wouln't know the difference compared to plaster coving. You do need a lot of Instant Grab adhesive - I used 5 for about 45 mtrs."
"Lightweight so easy to fit,looks like more expensive coving when fitted,.Easy to paint,a superb product. Highly recommended."
"Easy to use and when fitted indistinguishable from tradition plaster coving, HOWEVER the coving tool is woefully inadequate, use the coving but get the tool elsewhere."
"fitted this easily over a weekend taking my time using two packs. fitted very easily using coving adhesive and not no nails as recommended. Very handy and makes a neat job being in 3metre lengths also easy to cut using a gentle hand with a hacksaw. Looks really good now up and fitted. Will be using again for upstairs....so the wife tells me!"

Toyota Prius Owners Tell of Braking Scares
Blue Bell, Pa., resident Julia Reusch noticed a similar problem with her 2010 Prius. "About three weeks ago, I told my husband to make sure he left extra room when braking because sometimes the car seems to slip like it's on ice when stopping, though there is no ice around," she wrote.
Reusch, a producer for Nancy Glass Productions in Philadelphia, filed a complaint with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. She also made an appointment with a Toyota dealer, then canceled when she read that Toyota did not yet have a fix for the problem. Now, she says, she has an appointment.
One day last week, before Toyota announced the Prius recall, eight or nine Prius owners were lined up at a Toyota dealership in Alhambra, Calif., complaining about "the antilock brakes not working as expected when driven over bumps," said Adam Bray-Ali of Alhambra.
"The service writers were polite, but they were defensive," he said. At the time, "they didn't know how to fix it. They didn't have a fix from the national group."
