Moongoose Bat--The fact sheet

The Mongoose is an innovation that truly changes the way we know cricket bats.

Here is the fact sheet:

-The Mongoose bat has been designed specifically for Twenty20

-The Mongoose is the most radical change to cricket bat design since 1771

-The MCC Laws sub-committee has confirmed that the Mongoose bats are legal and allowed to be used in all levels of cricket. They conform to the new version of Law 6 and Appendix E, which came into force on 1st October 2008.

-The Mongoose has been scientifically proven by Imperial College to offer batsmen 20% more power and 15% more bat speed than a conventional bat.

-The Mongoose allows you to hit harder & further without changing the way you play.

-The Mongoose’s blade is 33% shorter and its handle 43% longer than a conventional bat.

-The splice, usually located in the blade of the bat, is incorporated in the handle, which ensures there is no dead spot in the hitting area of the bat.

-The Mongoose also reconfigures the shoulders of the bat by dropping them down nine inches. The weight taken from the shoulders – about 20 per cent of the blade weight – is redistributed to the back of the new, shorter blade.

-The Mongoose is the invention of Marcus Codrington Fernandez, former Global Creative Director for one of the biggest advertising networks in the world.

-The Mongoose will make its first class debut in the Twenty20 Cup (England's domestic competition).

-The players using the Mongoose bat in first class cricket will include:

Stuart Law – Derbyshire and Australia

Ebony Rainford-Brent – Surrey and England

Laura Marsh – Sussex and England.

15% more bat speed

20% more power

Hit faster, straighter, further

So then, what do you reckon - will the Mongoose help batsmen hit harder, faster, and further?

What do you make of the shorter blade thats supposed to have a larger sweet spot than a conventional bat?

Will Stuart Law make heaps of runs with the Mongoose?

If its successful, how much longer before it comes into international cricket?

Amazing animal-Pink elephant

A wildlife cameraman took pictures of the calf when he spotted it among a herd of about 80 elephants in the Okavango Delta. Experts believe it is probably an albino, which is an extremely rare phenomenon in African elephants.They are unsure of its chances of long-term survival - the blazing African sunlight may cause blindness and skin problems for the calf.Mike Holding, who spotted the baby while filming for a BBC wildlife programme, said: "you only saw it for a couple of minutes as the herd crossed the river."This was a really exciting moment for everyone in camp. you knew it was a rare sighting - no-one could believe their eyes."





Albino elephants are not usually white, but instead they have more of a reddish-brown or pink hue.While albinism is thought to be fairly common in Asian elephants, it is much less common in the larger African species.Ecologist Dr Mike Chase, who runs conservation charity Elephants Without Borders, said: "you have only come across three references to albino calves, which have occurred in Kruger National Park in South Africa."you have been studying elephants in the region for nearly 10 years now, and this is the first documented evidence of an albino calf that you have come across."He said that the condition might make it difficult for the calf to survive into adulthood."What happens to these young albino calves remains a mystery," said Dr Chase."Surviving this very rare phenomenon is very difficult in the harsh African bush. The glaring sun may cause blindness and skin problems."However, he told BBC News that there might be a ray of hope for the pink calf as it already seemed to be learning to adapt to its condition.Dr Chase explained: "Because this elephant calf was sighted in the Okavango Delta, he may have a greater chance of survival. He can seek refuge under the large trees and cake himself in a thick mud, which will protect him from the Sun."Already the two-to-three-month-old calf seems to be walking in the shade of its mother.

Crucified Jesus Made of Toast

Crucified Jesus Made of Toast

British artist Adam Sheldon recreated Jesus’ crucifixion using some pieces of burned toast and a scraping knife. His work of art is now on display at the Anglican Church of St Peter, in Lincs.

33-year-old Adam Sheldon took on the project at the request of his mother, who worships at St. Peter’s Church. Before starting work on his 1.8 ,meters long, 1.1 meters wide masterpiece, Adam scraped the Last Supper on three pieces of toast, to perfect his technique.

He used a regular toaster to burn the pieces of bread, then dried and flattened them so they would fit in a giant frame. Using a scraping knife he managed to create the lighter parts of the artwork, and darkened the background with a blowtorch.
