Game time. The Indian huddle has broken up and they take the field. Dilshan and Tharanga are the openers, and they've been in terrific form. Tharanga to face Zaheer Khan, bowling from over the wicket.
1425 So the national anthems are underway. By the way, this is what Dhoni said last evening. "The only person who can control Sreesanth is Sreesanth," he said. "It is beyond my control and I don't think too much about."
Since 2000, of the eight finals contested, India are yet to win against Sri Lanka while chasing. Two of the matches were abandoned in 2002. India have lost three matches by a margin of 100 runs or more. But that's only history.
1405 A bizarre moment at the toss. Obviously one captain knew that he lost the toss. But because of the confusion he got away with it. Sangakkara would have known what he called, and the coin fell one way. So the captains could have sorted it out. But they didn't. I don't think the match-referee or anyone else knew what was going on. Let the mind games begin ...
"Toss confusion, can India ask for review? Can the third umpire try to lip read the what Sangakara called?" asks Anjali. Let's move on though shall we ....

Toss 1400: There's some confusion over who's won the toss. What drama. And they are doing a re-toss. No one heard who called what the first time. Kumar Sangakkara has won the re-toss and Sri Lanka will bat, a massive moment.
Sreesanth is in, playing ahead of R Ashwin for the injured Ashish Nehra. That's the only change India have made from the team that beat Pakistan in the semi-final.
Sri Lanka have made a glut of changes. Mathews, Mendis, Herath and Chamara Silva are out. Perera, Randiv, Kulasekara and Chamara Kapugedera are playing the final. So they've gone for more firepower in their middle order.
How much will be enough? "Anything we get on the board will be good enough," says Sangakkara. That's the best answer to that question I've heard.
I don't know how he manages it so often, here's early bird Mark Kidger: "I think that India will win, but I'd like to see Sri Lanka pull off a surprise after two near misses. People tend to obsess on India, but what Sri Lanka have achieved since 1982 with far fewer resources and with all the problems that the country has had is nothing short of miraculous. Who would begrudge Muttiah Muralitharan a spectacular send-off?"
1355 It's a rather small ground is the Wankhede. Largest boundary is 76 meters, the smallest is 58. Nasser Hussain, on Star Cricket, says the pitch is dying to turn. Ganguly says there isn't enough grass cover, but the little moisture in it will make the new ball seam. You'd want to bat first though. Ganguly reckons India will play three quicks.
Sreesanth is marking his run-up now. So that is a pretty strong indicator ...
1345 The Wankhede has gone from 5% full to 70% full in about an hour. The teams are going through their paces, warming-up, taking catches. The Indians are on the east, the nosier side of the ground. The Sri Lankans on the west, where it's relatively quieter. And between them, there's that bare, brown 22-yard strip both captains will hope to win the toss on. In an ideal world, the pitch will confer no advantage on the team winning the toss. But it isn't an ideal world, is it?
"Zaheer getting his legs stretched so much that if anyone did this to us we would roll over and howl for mummy," says Sharda. Sreesanth is bowling on the practice wickets. Zaheer and Munaf are marking their run-ups on the match pitch. Sreesanth isn't marking his run up yet. The plot thickens.
1330 All the experts on Star Cricket are saying Ashwin ahead of Sreesanth. Dhoni has indicated a preference for three seamers, though, so your guess is as good as mine. I do think Sri Lanka will make a few changes to their team though. Toss in 30 minutes.
1315 Both these teams had a chance to win a World Cup in the 21st century but failed against the might of a marauding Australian batsman. In 2003, Ricky Ponting plundered a century of breathtaking aggressiveness, leaving my common room in college - and common rooms everywhere in India - shell shocked. In 2007, Adam Gilchrist, with squash ball in batting glove, blitzed Sri Lanka with a century more devastating than Ponting's. I never played fantasy cricket after that final.
Australia have faded since.
India are without Ashish Nehra today, he has a broken finger. He only played the semi-final because MS Dhoni misread the Mohali pitch and millions were outraged at R Ashwin's exclusion. Nehra, however, bowled wonderfully. Who will India replace him with? Ashwin (reliable, the pitch will become a turner), Sreesanth (a gamble: match-winner on his day, problem child when it isn't) or Yusuf Pathan (a defensive move, but a possible game-breaker against Sri Lanka's spinners).
Sri Lanka are without Angelo Mathews - canny bowler, calm middle-order bat, and perhaps their second best fielder. Will they play Thisara Perera instead of Mathews? And what about Ajantha Mendis, whom India have played well in ODIs? His place has been talked about as well.
The early indications are that this pitch will turn later in the evening. It looks a typically red Mumbai surface. It hasn't been used since the stadium was renovated so it's a new surface. It will have carry and bounce, which is good for the spinners as well. Win toss and bat should be a no brainer.
1300 Good afternoon and welcome to ESPNcricinfo's ball-by-ball coverage of this grandest of occasions. A World Cup final between two co-hosts, one a nation of a billion and more, the other its tiny island neighbour. India and Sri Lanka were expected to be playing today when the tournament began, and here they are.
It is also Muttiah Muralitharan's final international appearance. He's injured, in more places than one, but he's not going to pass up this stage. Sri Lanka wouldn't want him to either, on one leg or none. And then there's Sachin Tendulkar, who's been playing top-flight cricket for more years (22) than he has not (16) but hasn't won a World Cup yet. India will either celebrate with him tonight, or cherish a magnificent career that sadly was without team glory.
"Fans in the subcontinent can sometimes be accused of missing the bigger picture by obsessing with individuals and certainly no one man can win the World Cup by himself. But that Tendulkar and Murali lend this World Cup final a certain poignancy and romance is unquestionable," wrote Sambit Bal on the eve of this final. "Neither deserves disappointment but that's the cruelty of sport: for one dream realised tomorrow, there will be one broken. Murali has already been part of a World Cup-winning team but, if India lose tomorrow, Tendulkar will never know the feeling."
Feeling a bit jittery now? Nothing like a few laughs to calm yourself. And no one guarantees laughs like Andy Zaltzman. "Final Day. Mumbai is excited. India is excited. Sri Lanka is excited. Cricket is excited. My breakfast dosa was excited. "Who's going to win, Andy? Don't eat me yet, don't let me die before you tell me who's going to win …"
Sharda Ugra weighed in with a mood piece, capturing the feeling around the Wankhede on the eve of this clash. A particularly resonant bit was at the end, when she mentioned the umpires. "It will be Australian Simon Taufel's first chance to stand in a World Cup final. His partner Pakistani Aleem Dar will look up to the sky and make a familiar gesture: touch his heart and then the ground. He does this in memory of the daughter he lost when officiating in the 2003 World Cup, a reminder that man comes from and returns to the earth. It is both a remembrance and a reminder that in the manic few hours before a World Cup final, it will help everyone in cricket - those on the field and those watching outside - to always stay grounded."

"What a change 8 years bring -- Zaheer in 2003 0/28 in 3 overs; in 2011 3 maidens in 3 overs.. Impressive even though bowling to Hayden/Gilly is different from bowling to Dilshan/Tharanga," says Sundar.
Khan to Tharanga, OUT, caught at slip! And Zaheer hasn't conceded a run yet. Zaheer pitches the ball on a length around off, forcing Tharanga to prod because of his line as well as the pressure he's created, the ball nips away from the left-hander off the pitch and Tharanga edges it. The chance flies quickly to Sehwag's right at first slip and he takes it before falling to the ground

This is just in: Replays of the toss indicate decisively that Sangakkara called heads the first time as well, and the call is audible to the television producers. In the noise, Dhoni mis-heard it as a 'tails' call. It was why he turned towards Shastri saying, "we'll bat." However neither Shastri nor Crowe had heard Sangakkara's call, Crowe due to the noise, while Shastri was looking up at the coin. Shastri looked across to Crowe, the referee said, "I didn't hear it." There was then a brief conversation and it was decided the toss had to be held again.

Thanks George. It's been a good start from India but Sri Lanka have been steady, and with Sangakkara and Dilshan both starting to look good, this match is set up well. Personally, I reckon Kumar looks like he's wearing Donald Duck on his head, but there you go.

It was a very leg-side delivery and Dilshan went for the sweep, got a bit of glove on the ball and it's lobbed back on to his leg and deflected on to the stumps! Oh dear, what a disappointment for Dilshan but full credit to Harbhajan for building that pressure.
TM Dilshan b Harbhajan Singh 33 (87m 49b 3x4 0x6) SR: 67.34
Here's Mahela Jayawardene. He and Sangakkara have a big job ahead of them now.
Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, 1 run, tossed up on the stumps and it's clipped to leg
Harbhajan Singh to Sangakkara, 1 run, very good running now as Sangakkara dabs it to leg with soft hands and immediately takes off
Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, 1 run, well flighted by Harbhajan, and Jayawardene turns it through mid-on for another single
Madhu has this: " Dilshan became the fifth player to score 500 or more runs in a World Cup tournament. Sachin Tendulkar has done it twice in 1996 and 2003. Matthew Hayden, Ricky Ponting and Mahela Jayawardene are the others to achieve this feat. All three batsmen passed 500 runs in the 2007 World Cup."

Patel to Jayawardene, no run, guided away off the face of the bat to point
Patel to Jayawardene, no run, driven gently down to mid-on and can't find a gap this time

Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, FOUR, good shot! Jayawardene gets a big stride forward and drives hard through point, all the way along the ground and finds the gap. The odd boundary will relieve some of the pressure building on Sri Lanka here.
Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, 1 run, clipped through forward square leg, again he's happy with a single
Harbhajan Singh to Sangakkara, FOUR, edged and safe! And four, to add to Harbhajan's frustration! That was well flighted and straightened enough to get a genuine outside edge from Sangakkara, and the ball has fizzed through the vacant second slip region.

Sreesanth to Sangakkara, 1 run, very straight once again and Sangakkara works a single through square leg
Sreesanth to Jayawardene, FOUR, another boundary through slips! Not that there are any slips in for Sreesanth, and to be fair it looked like Jayawardene played that very deliberately, cutting late and opening the face to run it through third man. Well played.
Sreesanth to Jayawardene, no run, driven to mid-on and can't justify risking a single
Sreesanth to Jayawardene, no run, there's a well-timed cut, but not well-placed. Jayawardene has steered this one straight to point

Yuvraj Singh to Sangakkara, 1 run, soft hands now as Sangakkara clips a single off his pads

Vishnu Udayan: "How on the GOD's green earth could you call Yuvi as a part timer?!" Ouch.
Nirav: "Odd captaincy. Even without bowling sreesanth, the other 4 have enough overs between them to finish the innings. Why go to the part timers when they've done well the rest of the innings." Here is Zaheer Khan

Yuvraj Singh to Samaraweera, OUT, Yuvraj has a leg-before appeal turned down by umpire Taufel, and straightaway implores his captain to go for the review, Thilan went outside off stump on his knee for the big sweep, missed the delivery that went straight on with the angle, the question will be whether that hit him in line with off stump, it did, and is taking out middle stump, it is a rare occasion when umpire Taufel has to overturn his decision, this is one of them, and it is Yuvraj Singh for India again, he pushed Dhoni to go for the review

Gareth: "I question Kapugerera's place in the side. Surely there's a chandimal or someone who offers more with the bat. He's had 80-odd matches listed as a batter, and has failed to notch up one ton, even when his side needs him."
Patel to Kulasekara, no run, Kula misses the cut, Dhoni collects and immediately goes up for the catch, Munaf thinks he has got his man too, umpire Dar shakes his head, Dhoni wants another review, there seems to be no indication of an edge there, seemed like a review in hope rather than conviction, there was some sort of noise as the ball passed the bat, but that will not earn India a wicket

Arun: "The Sri Lankan lower middle over has gotten away scot-free thanks to Mahela. Brilliant!"
Khan to Kulasekara, SIX, Kula takes off in the Mumbai evening, gets a length ball in the slot and smashes it over deep midwicket, just stood in the crease and swung it hard
Khan to Kulasekara, 1 run, now he brings Mahela on strike with a single towards mid on
Khan to Jayawardene, 2 runs, short one from Zaheer, Mahela goes for the pull, and gloves it over Dhoni who runs back but the ball drops just over his head, Mahela lives on

Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, 1 run, goes for the big slog over midwicket but gets it off the toe end of the bat
Harbhajan Singh to Perera, no run, Harbhajan offers lots of width outside off, but also bowls it quick and flat, and he misses on the cut
Harbhajan Singh to Perera, 1 run, smashed down to long off, Mahela on strike now
Harbhajan Singh to Jayawardene, 1 run, fires it in on the pads, 113 kph. he slogs it to midwicket, who lobs an under-arm throw, enabling them to easily complete the single

Khan to Perera, SIX, 63 runs off the batting Powerplay, 22 off 9 for Thisara, gets a fuller delivery in his swinging zone, swivels, and hammers it over deep square leg for maximum
Sri Lanka have surged to 274, thanks to an elegantly effective century from Mahela Jayawardene. This will take lots of chasing, they have a terrific bowling attack. But the pitch has played true, these are the smallest boundaries at the Wankhede according to Ravi Shastri, and it can be done. This is also the big final, there will be pressure, lots of it, there will be a legend to tackle in Muttiah Muralitharan, and the yorkers of Lasith Malinga to deal with. Can India do it? They barely have twenty minutes to psyche themselves up. Join us for the final chase of this World Cup in some time. Nitin Sundar will take you through till the first drinks break. That will be it from me, Abhishek Purohit. I will see you all on the Chatterbox.

Conservatively Speaking
State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) represents parts of four counties: Milwaukee, Waukesha, Racine, and Walworth. Her Senate District 28 includes New Berlin, Franklin, Greendale, Hales Corners, Muskego, Waterford, Big Bend, the town of Vernon and parts of Greenfield, East Troy, and Mukwonago. Senator Lazich has been in the Legislature for more than a decade. She considers herself a tireless crusader for lower taxes, reduced spending and smaller government.
Press Release: Lazich applauds Senate approval of Strong Communities/Health Kids Act
November 2, 2011
For immediate release
Contact: Sen. Mary Lazich (608)-266-5400
Lazich applauds Senate approval of Strong Communities/Health Kids Act
Wednesday night, the Senate approved Senate Bill 237, the Strong Communities/Healthy Kids Act, with a 17-15 vote. State Senator Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin) authored the legislation to return human growth and development curriculum decisions to local school boards.
Senate Bill 237 removes state government mandates and allows each school board to design and implement human growth and development curriculum.
"The Strong Communities/Healthy Kids Act is another win for proponents of local control," Lazich said. "This takes the emphasis of human growth and development away from special interests and government mandates, and places it on ensuring students receive the necessary education to become healthy and productive members of society."

Reason for the nomination: These are "catches" out of Category:Possibly out of scope. They are bot-uploads from the Forest Starr & Kim Starr which is a very valuable source of images of specimen of plants or animals (thanks for that). But the subject of these images are not the named plants or animals but are private shnapshots of people "during the tour". On the most images the named speciman is not even on, which makes these IMHO out of scope.

Discussion in 'Cables & Switches' started by carillion, Jan 28, 2004.
does any body know if i can get a 232 interface for a phillips pronto pro thanks
Are you trying to do 232 control from a pronto or 232 control into a pronto?
hi retro, im in maidenhead (work) but i live in h.wycombe funny eh
i have a dome camera mounted on a ceiling that is 232 but the system its plugged into has visca camera control protocol so it wont talk to the dome.
so i need an interface that will respond to ir commands from the pronto and send 232 strings to my dome camera
at least i think thats corrct the guy who wanted me to post the question isnt here at the mo..
Thanks DANNY
We should have something that will do that job. A little box called a Marata MCU-UNI-IR. It will take in an IR command and output a 232 command or an RC5 IR command. I'm at work at the moment (snow everywhere so traffics stopped) but not sure where the documentation is for it, so I'll have a look tomorow.
Xantech supply two devices:
IR232 - fixed baud rate
IR232A - variable baud rate
See http://www.xantech.com/
Possibly the same or similar to Richard's options.
Best regards
My little board is a custom made jobbie Joe.
Sadly due to being a distributor I'm not entirely sure of how much it retails for.
It's a pretty flexible thing though, plenty of options on it.
Pretty much an addon to the MCU range.
thanks guys im on site in london after i pack up the van so i will check back later if poss
thanks Danny

Interpon Powder Coatings
Powder Coating
Interpon Powder Coatings a global brand of AkzoNobel and the world's leading supplier of paint and powder coatings, today officially announced the launch of the first comprehensive powder coating corrosion protection warranty systems for the Australasian market.Interpon Steelplex™ the name given to the collective group of warranty systems, will be able to offer up to 10 years corrosion protection and 15 years color and film integrity warranty depending on the system chosen; the coating system used; the environment location of the coated parts; and the substrate to be coated.Responding to market needs to provide highly efficient, cost competitive coating systems that use environmentally friendly technologies and provide corrosion protection warranties, has been the challenge for the powder coating industry in general – a challenge that Interpon Powder Coatings has met head on with uncompromising energy and enthusiasm. Backed by exhaustive testing in Europe and a proven track record in anti-corrosion warranties, Interpon already had the solution. The main consideration locally was to ensure that the warranty specifications translated to suit Australian conditions. Australia is well known globally for having some of the most diverse and extreme environmental conditions and Interpon is confident in our ability to not only meet but exceed the needs of our local conditions, and have supported this by offering the first corrosion protection warranty for powder coatings applications in Australasia.To support the Steelplex™ warranty program it was vital to set a high standard in application guidelines. Interpon conduct an extensive evaluation process and only issue accreditation to applicators who meet this stringent criteria. Our foundation partners, Vertikote Corp in NSW and Coating Services Australia in Victoria can certainly attest to this. Collectively these companies have over 100 years of experience in providing coatings solutions to the powder coating industry. They have the necessary equipment, skills and expertise to fulfil the stringent application processes we have imposed and we are extremely proud to have selected both these companies as the first applicators who can offer Interpon Steelplex™ anti-corrosion warranties.Interpon's Australasian Business Manager, Branka Vinaj said "We are extremely excited about the opportunities we are creating for the powder coating industry with these unique corrosion protection warranty systems. We are confident our Steelplex™ warranty systems will further broaden the technology and product portfolio of powder coatings applications."Partner our range of high performance corrosion protection coating systems with detailed and rigorous application guidelines, applied by a National network of Steelplex™ Accredited Applicators and you have a best in class system that exceeds the highest levels of quality assurance. These are standards which Interpon customers globally have come to expect from us.Interpon Powder Coatings is a global brand of AkzoNobel, the world's largest coatings manufacturer.www.akzonobel.com

text: I am 13 weeks pregnant with baby #2, and have been suffering {all day} morning sickness since week 5. I was sick for literally the entire pregnancy with my first baby and I'm worried I'll go down the same path with this one. I got a script from the doctor this morning for Maxolon, which is what I took during my first pregnancy also, but the pharmacy gave me Pramin -- which I believe is just the cheaper version? I'm hesitant to take it until my husband gets home from work, as I read online that many women suffered extremely skewed vision after taking it and were quite scared by the effect. The doctor did say it may cause drowsiness, so not to drive and such while taking it. I was fine with the Maxolon however, so I'm hoping this is basically the same thing. Have any of you taken Pramin? Did you have any adverse side effects>?
