It was found in 2005, in a small area of the Udzungwa Mountains, the Ndundulu Forest.

The crank call that shook SRK
Even as Bollywood badshah Shah Rukh Khan was celebrating his 45th birthday in Berlin with his family and close friends, a different sort of drama was unfolding at his bungalow, Mannat, at Bandra Bandstand. The sprawling bungalow became a virtual fortress on Tuesday afternoon, with police personnel cordoning off the area leading to it, following an alert that one of the visitors there would be attacked. All hell broke loose and senior police officers and crime branch teams swooped down and began examining the bouquets and gifts sent to Khan for explosives. They also got police personnel to check the vehicles on the roads. The frenzy began with a call received by the control room at 2. 30pm. The caller told the police that "gutka baron Joshi" was going to be killed at 'Mannat' and that his murder had been ordered by gangster Chhota Shakeel.
The newly weds of B town

After innumerable link-ups, a very public affair with Aishwarya Rai and an equally public break-up, the toy boy of tinsel town has finally said his 'I do' to Priyanka Alva, daughter of former Karnataka minister Jeevaraj Alva. The ceremony took place at the bride's Bengaluru farmhouse. The reception in Mumbai saw the who's who of Bollywood and political biggies in attendance. A star-studded affair, some of the invitees were Askhay Kumar, Jackie Shroff, Tabu, Gulshan Grover, Ritesh Deshmukh, Ramesh Sippy, Sajid Khan, Farah Khan, Fardeen Khan, Shakti Kapoor, David Dhawan, Zoya Akhtar, Salim Khan, Ram Gopal Verma, Vishal Bharadwaj.

I followed this tutorial about Resque on Raiscast: http://railscasts.com/episodes/271-resque
In the tutorials, there is an example about a code highlighter that resides in the #create method in controller:
def create
@snippet = Snippet.new(params[:snippet])
if @snippet.save
uri = URI.parse('http://pygments.appspot.com/')
request = Net::HTTP.post_form(uri, {'lang' => @snippet.language, 'code' => @snippet.plain_code})
@snippet.update_attribute(:highlighted_code, request.body)
redirect_to @snippet, :notice => "Successfully created snippet."
render 'new'
It is said that
"Communicating with external services through a Rails request is generally a bad idea as they might be slow to reply and so tie up your entire Rails process and any other requests that trying to connect to it. It's much better to move external requests out into an external process. We'll set up Resque so that we can move the request into a Resque worker."
What it wants to say is that: Resque helps speed up the Rails app. However, I don't quite understand why/how moving that piece of code out of the controller speed up the app. It looks for me just moving it from the controller to another library. Can anyone explain to me?

Welcome to the Bangkok Hash House Bikers. We are a group of people who like to take our mountain bikes out once a month for a ride of 40-50km. At the start of the ride only the hares who laid the trail know where it goes. Just follow the shredded paper and enjoy warm and friendly Thailand. After the ride we 'circle up' with a few beers. You don't even need to own a bike to take part as bikes are available for rental by private companies. Don't miss the fun! Find out more.
Message from your webnerd: I'm not riding this weekend so I won't be able to record the trail. If you have a GPS and can send me the trail (any format, but GPX preferred) I'd be very grateful. My e-mail address is at the bottom of this page.

Charlie Shelton "Shorty" Huffman
Hi Again Robert,
I truly want to Thank You so much for all the info you gave me. You see all of my childhood was wrapped up with my maternal Grandparents, John "Henry" Huffman and Annie Elizabeth Scroggins Huffman. When Grandma would receive letters from Aunts Lizettie, Isophene, Berlie, and Bertha, (Aunts Dovie and Juanita lived about twenty miles away in Morrilton, we got to see them quite often, and cherished every minute)this was a time of family gathering to hear news from these wonderful ladies. Grandma would read each letter aloud for all of to hear. Each of the Aunts would come to visit once a year, usually in the Spring. My Grandparents' home would be a buzz of preparations for these Most Important Guests. My Grandma was so close to these ladies that I thought they were her sisters for a long time. When I found out that they were my Grandpa's half sisters, I was a bit confused. At that time in my young life, I had no idea what a half sister was. My Grandpa was a "man's man". Grandpa loved his half-btother, Shorty very much. He truly enjoyed the company of his brothers-in-law and relished in his sisters' visits. To see my onery Grandpa so happy was a rare thing. There would always be a banquet. With ALL in attendence. When I was growing up around my Grandparents, I truly had a deep connection with Andy of Mayberry fame. Thank you for bringing those wonderful memories back.

This year's 67th annual Tony Awards race boiled down to a hotly contested duel between a homegrown musical about thigh-high footwear, Kinky Boots, and a British import about a contemporary little girl's Dickensian life, Matilda.
When the smoke cleared, Broadway's big winner was Kinky Boots, which, besides being named best musical of the season, took home a total of six awards, including one for best leading actor in a musical Billy Porter – whose jet-propelled acceptance speech left the crowd touched and breathless.

Cyndi Lauper has plenty to celebrate – and she's not doing it alone.
Not only is the singer-songwriter Tony-nominated for her critically acclaimed score to the best-musical contender Kinky Boots, but she's also marking the 30th anniversary of the monster hit that first put her on the map, "Girls Just Want to Have Fun," which she released in 1983.
To celebrate? She was totally surprised by the Kinky Boots ensemble. After quietly securing permission from Lauper's manager and her record company, Sony Music, they assembled this performance music video (see below) of Lauper's signature number.
"It's so sweet, I'm crying," Lauper, 59, during a quick break from rehearsal Monday, told PEOPLE of her reaction to what was done – and about those who participated. She first saw the video Sunday night, before it was posted to YouTube.
Robin Roberts: 'I Feel the Best I've Felt in a Long Time'

Robin Roberts's fans always worry about her when she's off-screen too long (just check out her Twitter), but the Good Morning America anchor says people needn't be concerned.
"I feel great. I feel the best I've felt in a long time – and I mean that sincerely," Roberts told PEOPLE Monday at the 12th Annual Women Who Care Luncheon benefiting United Cerebral Palsy of New York City.
Roberts, rocking tight black leather pants and spiked heels at the luncheon to celebrate women's accomplishments, took Thursday and Friday off last week on the heels of a brief hospitalization in April. But taking care of herself has worked wonders, she says.
Tom Hanks, Cyndi Lauper, Kinky Boots Among Top Tony Nominees
Originally posted 04/30/2013 09:25AM
Star power shined on Broadway this season – and some of the big names even managed to gain Tony nominations, it was announced Tuesday morning.
Among them: Tom Hanks, in the Tony-nominated best-play contender by the late Nora Ephron, Lucky Guy; Laurie Metcalf, in Sharr White's The Other Place; Cicely Tyson, in a revival of Horton Foote's The Trip to Bountiful; Holland Taylor, in the play about the late, outspoken Texas governor Ann Richards, written by Taylor herself, Ann; David Hyde Pierce, in Christopher Durang's best-play nominee Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike; Nathan Lane, in Douglas Carter Beane's The Nance.
In the best musical category, the nominees are Bring It On, A Christmas Story, Matilda and Kinky Boots, which received the most nominations of any show: 13, including a nod for its Cyndi Lauper-written score.
Best play contenders, besides Lucky Guy and the side-splitting homage to Chekhov, Vanya, are Richard Greenberg's The Assembled Parties and Colm Tólbin's The Testament of Mary.

Several investors in The World are waiting and watching. Oqyana, the Kuwaiti company with 22 islands on The World, says its entire project is tied to one master plan, with the bulk still at the design stage.
"Oqyana is still in the development stage and we haven't launched sales yet," a company spokesman said. But a former Nakheel executive says such claims have been made for a long time and don't make sense.
"They paid 100 percent cash down and their inaction means they are confronted with a depreciating asset value. In 2006 they had decided to set up a captive power plant and bought another island for power supply. How can they remain at the same level of development for three years?" asks the insider. Oqyana isn't willing to elaborate.
A group of investors in a leading Dubai developer that experienced trouble with Nakheel was recently advised by management with the following words:
"Work on Palm Jebel Ali [a Nakheel project even larger is scope than Palm Jumeirah] has effectively stopped, with no indication of when it might restart."
Investor Jean Von Gissel (who owns an island on The World) looks on the bright side, however. "I'm probably going to be the only one going ahead with construction (on The World) considering the environment," he laughs, adding that he likes it that way.
"The cost of materials has gone down significantly, and a lot of contractors who were not looking at my project because of its relatively small size are now responding favorably," he says.

In The Kind Diet, actress, activist, and committed conservationist Alicia Silverstone shares the insights that encouraged her to swear off meat and dairy forever, and outlines the spectacular benefits of adopting a plant-based diet, from effortless weight loss to clear skin, off-the-chart energy, and smooth digestion. She explains how meat, fish, milk, and cheese—the very foods we've been taught to regard as the cornerstone of good nutrition—are actually the culprits behind escalating rates of disease and the cause of dire, potentially permanent damage to our ecology. Yet going meat- and dairy-free doesn't mean suffering deprivation; to the contrary, The Kind Diet introduces irresistibly delicious food that satisfies on every level—it even includes amazing desserts to keep the most stubborn sweet tooth happy. Alicia also addresses the nutritional concerns faced by many who are new to a plant-based diet, and shows how to cover every nutritional base, from protein to calcium an

80 Blood Elf Paladin
<Nostalgia> is a horde guild focused on raiding Wrath of the Lich King content at level 80.
We are currently recruiting DPS and Healers!
The main goal of this guild is to do Wrath of the Lich King raids at Level 80 with gear that was only obtainable in that expansion. Sure we could all just buy a bunch of Cataclysm green's off the Auction House and maybe call it good, but that pretty much defeats the purpose entirely. There will be some limitations and some exceptions when it comes to finding a middle ground between Wrath and Cataclysm.
I spent some time into deciding whether to make a raiding guild for Level 70 or Level 80. As you can see, I chose Level 80 for several reasons. The biggest reason is because there is a whole lot more Achievements in Wrath than there was in Burning Crusade since they had just come out with them towards the end of that expansion.
People love Achievements. And with those Achievements come titles, mounts, companions and various other rewards. In the next expansion, Mists of Pandaria, it has been rumored that Achievements will become account wide and not just for a single character. One particular achievement I've wanted to get is Herald of the Titans. You don't see very many people with this title. Another goal of this guild is to get this title. In order to do so, everyone in the raid group has to be Level 80 and can't be wearing any items with a higher item level than what can be acquired from Ulduar 10 man (armor with item level 226 and lower; main hand, off hand and ranged/relic with item level 232 and lower) and defeat Algalon the Observer. So not only are we going to need to get a set of gear that is Icecrown Citadel ready, but we'll also have to work on a set for this achievement.
Level 80 also opens up 5 more talent points (36 in total) that you can spend in another tree. There are also some key spells and abilities that players will learn between the levels 70 and 80. Overall, I feel that raiding at Level 80 would offer not only more of a challenge to members but would also be more rewarding and fun.
Currently we're very small so will just be focusing on 10 man regular and heroic content. Later on if we end up getting more people joining us we can move up to 25 player regular and heroic content.
For more information and a detailed overview of how our guild will function, please check us out on our website.
If you're interested in joining our ranks, fill out an application! :)

Half nature, half ruins... who needs the rule of thirds, anyway?
The "mouth" of an old stack, at or near the Adventure Mine (yes, that was its real name!) last fall. This was the opening which would have led into the adjacent boiler building.
Still catching up on some old photos...
Edit, many years later: Actually, this was for the Mass mine, not Adventure. Whoops! They are neighbors...

Looks great without the rule of thirds!
very nice shot!
How high up is the hole? Another interesting photo (and I have March 2010 photos still to upload ...)
Thanks all!
@mcdeegan50: The bottom of the opening was about head-height, so maybe 6 feet. I didn't climb up, but I've been in plenty of these before. Nothing much in there except old tires.
Good day! I am an admin for the Flickr group Stacked, and we would appreciate having your photo added to the pool.
For a rather bland subject, there sure is a lot of color here (courtesy the autumn afternoon light). As for the Rule of Thirds, well, some rules are meant to be broken.
I love the lighting you captured in the trees....
Well done and very interesting capture.
DC, I like the contrast between the man-made stack and the trees!

⬅ Return to Drone Legislation: What's Being Proposed in the States?
Sam Kephart
Mar 7th, 2013 at 1:48am
Published Feb 2013
Emmy-winning journalist, Shad Olson, explores the controversy over U.S. drone policy, both at home and abroad.
While technological sky supremacy gives America strategic superiority on the battlefield, the prospect of drone proliferation over U.S. cities is causing concern about loss of privacy, an end to Habeas Corpus and judicial due process and the destruction of Constitutional rights.
South Dakota U.S. Senator John Thune and former U.S. Senate candidate, Sam Kephart share their views about the consequences of domestic drone deployment in the fight against terrorism.
Mar 31st, 2014 at 5:06pm
Or there is my situation, in which a drone "hobbyist" was flying his aircraft over my daughter's kindergarten playground and filming the students (we think) for many days on end. There is no law against it, nothing to protect the kids, so he kept on. :(
One important law in that regard is the prohibition on politically partisan activity. Given our nonprofit status, we may not endorse or oppose candidates for elective office.

The flat was great, rooms with big space and very clean, location was perfect and the area was very quiet, excellent for resting after a big day of visiting and walking on the streets of Rome!
The Metro line A to main "must sees" is 5mins away (Ponte Lungo stop), there are few supermarkets around the corner, and a very good restaurant as well ("L'Angolo").
We (2 adults + 3 kids) had great time at Lucia's place and she organized, while took care of our comfort at best.
We strongly recommend this flat and would go there again next time in Rome.
Giulia is a lovely person. Always on the move, she is very good at making decoupage and furniture restoration. Her apartment is very large, elegant and bright. In all the apartment there is great attention to detail.

Sometimes it's easy to forget that just a few years ago, the guys in My Chemical Romance were simply five comic-book-obsessed everydudes from rural New Jersey. So with all that's happened to them lately — hit record, "TRL"-approved single, boatload of Video Music Awards nominations — you'll have to forgive them if they get a little carried away.
Which is kind of what happened when they began talking about their first-ever headlining tour, promising a mega-theatrical production, complete with films and dancers. But when details of the tour finally surfaced, it turned out that the guys had gotten a bit ahead of themselves with their grandiose ideas (see "My Chemical Romance Fall Tour: Arena Rock On The Installment Plan" ).
And while the tour is still a definite go, the band was forced to scale things back just a bit, which, as MCR frontman Gerard Way told MTV News, isn't necessarily a bad thing.
"We're a very passionate live band — our show is very kinetic, so we don't want people to be watching a whole lot of video. We want you to be watching us," he laughed. "That being said, we've taken our ambitious ideas and broken them down into something I don't think anyone has seen before. We're going to be using a lot of video content and shapes and visual elements. We want to give people a full night with us, and we want to give some fans who've known us for a long time the chance to hear some of those older songs that they never get to hear, ever."
And that includes a set filled with songs not just from their breakthrough, Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge, but from 2002's I Brought You My Bullets, You Brought Me Your Love too. It's the kind of show MCR have been itching to put on ever since they started making the rounds on big-ticket tours like Green Day's American Idiot trek or this summer's edition of the Warped Tour: big on emotion, heavy on older material (see "My Chemical Romance: They're Okay [Promise]" ).
And they've even gone so far as adding a few extra dates to the tour — including two homecoming shows in Jersey — which was originally scheduled to end on October 5 in Orem, Utah, but now runs all the way to the end of October. MCR will also take the stage at New Orleans' massive Voodoo Music Experience, held on October 29 and 30 (see "My Chemical Romance, Queens, Bravery Join Voodoo Lineup" ). Anything, they say, to thank their longtime loyalists.
"We've always wanted to give something back to our fans, and to play the kind of shows we know they want to see," Way said. "And we really think this tour is exactly that."
The new dates for My Chemical Romance's fall tour, according to Reprise Records:
- 10/7 – Birmingham, AL @ Boutwell Auditorium
- 10/8 – Duluth, GA @ Arena at Gwinnett Center
- 10/9 – Tampa, FL @ Plaza at Ford Amphitheatre
- 10/10 – Fort Lauderdale, FL @ Revolution
- 10/11 – Lake Buena Vista, FL @ House of Blues

EDMOND, Okla. — With the area's Citylink paratransit bus service running at capacity officials are searching for a solution as requests continue to grow, according to The Oklahoman.
The service provided 8,453 rides last fiscal year, up from 3,520 rides in 2009-10, when the system started operation. Each month, the paratransit service gets 10 to 12 new applications. For the full story, click here.
The Titan800 Retractor System is designed to meet the latest WC18 industry regulations, which take effect December 2015.
The Final Rule applies to public entities providing fixed route, dial-a-ride and complementary paratransit services. It establishes that an individual's disability cannot preclude a public transportation entity from providing full access to its service except where doing so would fundamentally alter the service.
Following unanimous approval by the SFMTA board in January, the SFMTA has worked tirelessly to meet the city's demand for this program. In just over one month, the SFMTA has processed more than 38,000 applications for the Free Muni program expansion.
The accusations stem from a human rights complaint by a rider who said a bus driver refused to lower the wheelchair ramp for her because she was using a walker and not a wheelchair. STM holds monthly meetings where they open the floor to citizens to ask questions directly to board members.
The Berkshire Regional Transit Authority Soldier On call center coordinates transportation for veterans and their families traveling to VA medical centers in Leeds, Mass. and Albany as well as Pittsfield's VA clinic. Users can also coordinate work, education and shopping trips using existing routes.

The man who tried to rob the Farmers State Bank in Wallace was convicted Monday after he pled no contest in Lincoln County District Court.
Drew Steier, 20, of Evanston, Wyo. will be sentenced April 8.
He will undergo a presentence investigation.
Lincoln County Attorney Rebecca Harling went ahead and recommended a 1-3 year sentence.
Steier went inside the bank in Wallace Aug. 13 wearing a mask and carrying what appeared to be a handgun. The tellers told Steier they had no access to the money and it was locked up. He waved the gun around, and then left the bank.
The gun turned out to be a plastic toy.
Tracy Black, 53, also from Evanston, drove the getaway truck. They were arrested about an hour later near Imperial on Nebraska Highway 61.
Black was convicted on Jan. 28 and is scheduled to be sentenced on March 25.

text: Photos: Office of Juvenile Justice making a move Photos: Office of Juvenile Justice making a move Advocate story Comments BAKER—Come Thursday evening, Jetson Center for Youth will be ready to absorb the entire incarcerated population of Bridge City Center for Youth in New Orleans — 132 juvenile convicts — in the event of a hurricane evacuation. But Jetson's buildings, including the most recently occupied dormitories, also will be empty of practically everything save beds and chairs. Since state officials shuttered the decades-old youth corrections facility in January, ferrying the juveniles in buses to Bridge City and Swanson Center for Youth in Monroe early in the morning on a cold weekend, weeds have been much more active than people on the more than 400 acres of land where Jetson sits just off Scenic Highway in Baker.

Great place and location.Posted Nov 1, 2014 on Hotels.com
We have stayed here before. The staff is great and the pool and hot tub are open late. The only little complaint is that the hot tub was not hot but staff said that they would look into it. Right off the highway with numerous places to eat nearby.

Smoking rooms still exist?Posted Oct 27, 2014
Somehow i booked 2 smoking rooms- had no idea that could be done. The front desk changed them out and all good! Great breakfast and waffles. jk

Close to highway exits, but very quiet surroundingPosted Oct 22, 2014
Pros: See above. Other nice features were the microwave oven and generous size refrigerator in the room.
Cons: A restaurant within easy walking distance would be helpful those who don't like to drive at night in unfamiliar areas.
Other years we had been staying in a hotel located in center of Concord, but we decided to try the Comfort Inn. We are so glad we did! The staff members were friendly and helpful. The indoor pool had light coming in on two sides. It wasn't buried in a basement! The complimentary breakfast offered more than adequate variety.

text: Our Verdict Seemingly tuned with budget kit in mind, the Dalis remain solid upgrade speakers For Smart looks sweet treble, plenty of bass beautiful midrange Against Not the last word in transparency could be more dynamic Reviewed on 12th February 2009 Everyone has a friend whom everyone likes; partners, pals, parents all take to them in an instant. You probably have funnier friends, cleverer friends, friends who can do that thing with their tongue, but they're not as instantly and universally liked. The Dali Lektor 2 is just that friend in the world of £300 speakers. Dali tends to concern itself with more expensive speakers, so it's no surprise that attention to detail in terms of build and design has trickled down to the more affordable Lektor 2s. The furniture-grade, light-walnut finish complements the black soft-dome tweeter and 5in paper mid/bass driver for a smart package. Down to business, and that tweeter delivers a seriously smooth treble, with Florence and the Machine's eponymous singer sounding as if she's been swallowing a steady stream of syrup, such is the sweetness of the swooping vocals on You've Got The Love. There's less of a sugar-coating on lower frequencies, with Moderat's A New Error delivered with the required drive and power thanks to a bass delivery that's all too happy to stick its head above the parapet. We'd be wary of putting these too close to a wall: get good stands and give them room. More after the break A stunning midrange Likable though these characteristics may be, they are certainly colouring the sound – arguably helping to make the most of bright, lightweight, budget kit – in a way the best speakers don't. Nothing dissuades the casual listener from immersing themselves in a prolonged listening session, but a more transparent sound can be found elsewhere. Switch to The Road's brooding score and you don't quite get the dynamic reach that can be heard elsewhere, with the Lektor 2s working their socks off to hit the peaks and troughs required. But listen to that midrange and you'd forgive most of these faults. The XX's Night Time sounds stunningly intimate and emotive thanks to detailed vocals effortlessly breathed into the room. If you want a dependable speaker, the Dali Lektor 2s surely can't fail. We could find a sound that's more faithful and revealing, perhaps a little more exciting and with a more balanced tone, but no matter what you throw at the Lektor 2s they won't let you down. A friend indeed, then. See all our hi-fi speaker Best Buys Where to buy View all » DALI Lektor 2 Related News Last chance to win a pair of PMC speakers worth £1970!

BIAB, double mill, high efficiency, less grain. Just sayin
When I made this, I forgot to add the amber malt and used 15 lbs of us 2-row, 0.25lbs of melanoiden, and 0.25lbs of acid malt (for mash pH adjustment). Found the little bag of amber on the counter about 30 minutes into the boil! Was the best malt character of any beer I have made yet. I guess my point is that even a simple grain bill can be excellent.
Quick question about the original recipe. Is the dry hopping in secondary?
Primary #1 (SS Brew Bucket):
Primary #2 (SS 7G Chronical):
Primary #3 (Better Bottle): Rye Saison
Secondary #1: Pinot Grigio Kit
Secondary #2: Pinot Grigio Kit
Secondary #3: Gewurztraminer Kit
Kegged & Waiting: Citra Black IPA
ON TAP: n/a
2014 Beers So Far:Belgian Wit | Burton IPA | Belgian Wit | Black IPA | Rye Saison | Hefeweizen
I used to rack to a clearing vessel, and add the dryhops there. But for the last few years, I just add the dryhops to my fermenter for the last 5 days or so before packaging the beer.
I made the extract recipie.
My scale went nuts and I added about two and one half lbs of C40. I just went ahead with the recipie.
What should I expect as far as taste?

Castrol Marine said it has welcomed new guidance from Wärtsilä that undermines claims that mid-range base number (BN) oils represent a single cylinder oil solution for marine two-stroke engines. The advice confirms Castrol's long-held concerns that using mid-range BN cylinder oils with higher sulphur fuels when slow steaming could lead to cold corrosion.
The engine major has withdrawn approval for mid-range (50-60BN) cylinder oils when used with many marine engines running on Heavy Fuel Oil of above 2.5% sulphur content.
New 'letters of no objection' to suppliers limit use of mid-range BN oils on all "Wärtsilä RTA, RT-fl ex and W-X engines as well as Sulzer two-stroke engines" to HFO whose sulphur content is "in the range 0.5<S<2.5 mass %".
"Our concerns on catch-all, mid-range BNs for slow steaming were first prompted by our own field investigations and then confirmed by bench tests and further field trials," said Paul Harrold, technology manager, Castrol Marine. "We have consistently argued that mid-range BN oils are not suitable for slow steaming operations on modern engines. The two leading OEMs in the market have now offered specific advice on this issue in line with our position."
The Wärtsilä letters have been followed by key "single oil solution" proponents acknowledging to customers that cylinder oils previously recommended for HFO with up to 4.5% sulphur content are now for restricted use only.
Castrol Marine was the first cylinder oil supplier to raise concerns on cold corrosion after a number of suppliers presented mid-range BN oils as suitable for slow steaming operations. It has consistently advised customers to use an accurate approach when making lubricant choices, based on engine type and operating conditions rather than simplicity and convenience alone.
In May 2013, Castrol reported case studies for in-service ships to the CIMAC Congress in Shanghai showing evidence of the harmful impacts of cylinder oils of inadequate BN in slow steaming regimes. Data supported the view that higher BN lubricants reduce corrosive wear in slow steaming engines and enable lower, more cost effective feed rates than mid-range BN oils.
Castrol Marine recommends Castrol Cyltech 80 AW in combination with its scavenge drain analysis service to achieve safe slow steaming operations that do not compromise engines or increase lube oil feed rates. The company has also recently responded to customer demand by increasing availability of its 80BN Cyltech 80 AW cylinder oil to 35 ports. Cyltech 80 AW is formulated for crosshead engine types operating on high sulphur residual fuel, typically above 2.5% content.
"MAN Diesel & Turbo has already excluded mid-range cylinder oils from its approved list for newer engines," said David Goosey, Castrol Marine chief executive and sales director. "Some argued that MAN's advice was only relevant for a small number of engines. Wärtsilä's restriction effectively excludes the use of mid-range BN oils for about two thirds of the fuel used in the relevant engines outside ECAs."
