Nokia N900 Review

INTRODUCTION: BY Rayan Shah

Ever since I started using Nokia Internet Tablets (the 770, N800, N810), my biggest dream has always been the addition of GSM radio and packet data transmission, which would make them fully functional, always connected mobile devices, rather than just "tablets", relying on access to WiFi hotspot or requiring the use of mobile phone for remote Internet access and for phone calls. I've loved the flexibility and performance of the Linux (Debian) based Maemo operating system and, especially, the Hildon user interface, providing PDA (or even computer) like experience rather than dumb smartphone UI. I missed such an advanced PDA-phone since the Series 80 platform was killed and the N900 seems to be my dream finally come true. Is it? In this preview, I'll try to express my initial impressions and share with you some introductory information about the N900. I am currently using a pre-sales "proto" device with early software build, so many things aren't finished or fully optimized yet, making it impossible to go into each and every detail and judge on things like performance or power consumption. However, this preview will be seriously expanded or replaced with a full, detailed review as soon as I get hold of a final unit, which shouldn't last longer than just a couple of weeks.

I. HARDWARE
The look and feel

Right after being announced, I've seen many comments from people calling the N900 a "brick". Sure, there are smaller mobile phones out there, but I think it's silly to even try to compare them. Small phones with QVGA (or even nHD) screens just serve different purpose. It's like comparing a truck to a small coupe. Trucks aren't bigger because they are "worse" - they just serve different purpose and their size is actually their advantage. And so it looks with the N900. If you prefer small phones and you do not need advanced functionality offered by PDA-phone devices, it simply means that they're not for you, but surely for someone else. Just ignore their existence, just like you ignore the existence of trucks while looking for a new car.

Having said that, let's see if the N900 (110.9 x 59.8 x 18 mm, 113 cc, 181 g) is really that big compared to other devices of similar specs and purpose. The most natural comparison is probably the Nokia N97. Put both side by side and it turns out that the N900 is actually.... a little bit SMALLER, and only slightly thicker (just by 1-2 mm and even that only on one side; the upper part of the N97 where the protruding camera is located is of the same thickness). The N900 is also by about 1 cm shorter than the Omnia HD, while sharing with it the same width. It's obviously about 0.5 cm thicker than the Omnia, but hey, the keyboard has to take some space. Finally, it is also (by over 2.5 cm) shorter than the E90 Communicator, while sharing almost the same thickness and width with it, and while noticeably heavier than the iPhone 3Gs (115.5 x 62.1 x 12.3 mm, 130 g), the dimensions of the N900 do not really justify calling it considerably larger, either, and the difference only results from the N900 having a hardware keyboard.

So is it really a "brick" compared to other devices of its type? It is not; in many cases it is actually smaller.

My subjective impression when it comes to its size and weight is entirely positive. That's what I like. When holding it, I feel that I'm holding something that won't break just because of squeezing it a little bit too tightly. It seems to be just tailored for the size of my hand. While I loved the huge screens of Internet Tablets, I find the reduction of screen size from N810's 4.1" to 3.5" fully justified to keep the size of the device on a level acceptable for a mobile phone. 4.1" display of the N810 is fantastic for an Internet Tablet, but would have to boost the dimensions to a slightly cumbersome level for a mobile phone. The iPhone also has a 3.5" screen and so many people love it so much :-), so it seems to be a good choice. At this point it is also worth noticing that despite smaller size, the N900 retained the display resolution of Internet Tablets (800x480 pixels), which is not only 2.5 times bigger than iPhone's 320x480 (hence it fits 2.5 times more content at once), 1.7 times bigger than nHD of the N97/5800/Omnia HD, but also slightly bigger than E90's internal screen.

The screen

The touch screen is resistive, so it is not as responsive/sensitive as capacitive screens of e.g. the Omnia HD and requires pressing it a little bit harder. But not to a point that would make it an issue. Actually, the display being too sensitive on its edges (resulting in accidental touches when I just want to grab the device) on the Omnia HD annoys me much more than that additional small pressure I have to apply to the screen of the N900. To compare, the responsiveness of the N900 display is considerably better than of the 5800 XpressMusic and probably on par with the N97, if not a little bit better.

While resistive LCD screens appear slighly less crisp/vidiv indoors (which I am not so sure in case of the N900, as when set to max brightness it's actually of the same quality as Omnia HD's AMOLED, or maybe even better thanks to its higher resolution, i.e. smaller pixel size, resulting in better "sharpness"), their performance is considerably better outdoors. The screen of the N900 retains clarity and visibility even in bright sunlight.

You can set the N900 to vibrate when you touch the screen, which provides nice tactile feedback. Additionally, you can also enable audible feedback, a "click" tone.

The only thing that worries me when it comes to N900 display is its resistence to scratches and other damages. And it seems to be lower than expected. I got the device without any protective case and the display got some awful scratches in just one day, and that's only because some sand grains got into the pocket I kept it in. Maybe it is just a coincidence and the same would happen to any other device, but a good screen protector or soft carrying case are recommended, just in case. OK, now...

Keyboard, buttons

i.e. something really important for E90 Communicator users thinking of the N900 as of a possible replacement/upgrade. Well, most of you have already seen lots of pictures and videos of the N900 so it's not a secret that the N900 does not have a full QWERTY keyboard as we know it from Communicators. It is a 3-row keyboard similar to the N97 one. In that sense, it is obviously worse. While typing letters actually isn't much more difficult, it looks a little bit worse with digits, which require additionally pressing the blue "Fn" key (fortunately, double-pressing it "locks" its function so if you need to type more digits at once it'll free you from having to press "Fn" multiple times). As you can see on the following pictures, the keyboard of the N900 is actually the SMALLEST of all smartphones I currently have, not just the E90, but also the Xperia X1, or even the E75, which is actually quite surprising as the E75 is both shorter and narrower, yet apparently it was possible to fit a larger keyboard in it. N900's keyboard is also considerably smaller than that of the previous Internet Tablet, the N810, which additionally included a nice d-pad... Well, what can I say... even such a small keyboard is better than no keyboard at all, but I really wouldn't mind if it was slightly bigger...

However, layout and size certainly aren't all that determines whether a keyboard is good or bad. It is easier to compare the N900 keyboard to N97, so I'll start from that. N900's keyboard is simply a better one, period. While the keys aren't actually much larger and there's no space between them like on the N97, they provide considerably better tactile feedback in the means that they're more springy and with more perceptible click.

The tactile feedback seems to be better also compared to the E90 keyboard, which feels softer. The keys of the N900 are considerably smaller than on the Communicator, but what somehow partially compensates for this is that they're convex, which means that you only feel the central part of a key under your finger and there's enough space around it not to touch the surrounding keys.

Finally, unlike the E90 or the E75, the N900 is a touch screen device and additionally offers virtual, on-screen text input (only full screen QWERTY keyboard at the moment; I haven't found any trace of handwriting recognition or a small QWERTY keyboard for use with stylus in the tested proto unit, hopefully these input methods present in Internet Tablets' previous Maemo releases will be added in final SW builds) so you're not restricted to entering text with the hardware keyboard only. I find myself using the virtual keyboard quite often, especially for short texts like SMS, URL in the browser, short emails, chats, etc. The virtual keys are huge and predictive (T9) text input (two languages can be used at once) additionally accelerates typing. Again, this somehow compensates for the hardware keyboard being smaller and of less convenient 3-row layout, so it should be taken into consideration when thinking about the N900 as of a possible E90 upgrade.

The keyboard is backlit. Backlight is controlled by the ambient light sensor, which means that it is enabled only when needed and does not consume power when there's enough light to use the keyboard without backlight.

All in all, compared to E90, the keyboard is not as a challenging experience as it might initially look. The layout and size surely need getting used to and typing (especially digits) may be slower, but not to a degree of "unusability". The virtual full-screen keyboard also helps, and is actually quite a nice thing to have for "casual" text input, and in this regard it is more convenient and faster to use than E90's external phone keypad, also used for similar purposes. While the hardware keyboard alone definitely isn't half as good as on the E90, it is actually THE ONLY drawback; all the remaining funtions, features (including much more advanced, better looking and more intuitive UI) are so much better on the N900 that they're really worth sacrificing the keyboard for.

Besides the keyboard, there's only a few buttons located around the device. Unlike the N97, the N900 does not have hardware Call/End buttons, so accepting, ending and rejecting phone calls requires using the on-screen buttons. The only existing hardware buttons include (on the top of the device) Power On/Off button (which, when pressed shortly, also displays a menu to change profiles, (de)activate the GSM radio, switch to or from the Offline mode (WiFi, Bluetooth), lock the device with a security code, lock the screen and keyboard, and end/kill the currently running application (e.g. when it freezes)), Camera button, +/- button (to change loudness or zoom level), and a Screen Lock/Unlock slider (on the right side of the phone). That's it.

The N900 does not have any kind of d-pad, which is a pity, as it surely would be a very welcome addition for gamers (it's an Nseries device afterall, isn't it?). Unlike the N97, the N900 has a "slot" for stylus, located on the lower right side. The stylus is made of plastic, yet quite sturdy and hard, convenient to hold and long (its length is the same as the width of the device).

Best Beaches in Asia

Asia is a vast continent covering many tropical areas with plentiful sandy beaches. From India to the Philippines to Indonesia, there are so many beaches to choose from that naming a few as “the best” is a difficult task. Selecting the best beach really depends upon personal criteria. For me, I’m considering the natural beauty of the area, pristine qualities, agreeable weather, and sparse crowds. The last qualification is most difficult to find as just about every good beach on the planet has been developed extensively.

Over the last 10-15 years development on the once-remote locale of Bali, Indonesia has exploded as international tourists have discovered the exotic island. While the rest of Indonesia is 93% Muslim, Bali remains under the influence of Balinese Hinduism and compose a unique culture not found anywhere else in the world. But, to follow my criteria and seek out the best beach in Bali we have to journey north of Kuta away from the crowds to Seminyak. Seminyak is one of the few beaches left in Bali where you can feel like you have the whole beach to yourself. The wide, sandy beach is bordered by lush greenery and few hotels. But hurry, development is picking up here.
Palawan is a group of islands belonging to the Philippines and is home to several of the world’s most beautiful and most pristine beaches. It is not unusual to stroll alone on the beaches next to the crystal-clear sea. Roads have largely gone undeveloped here and the islands consist largely of rain forest and white sand beaches. Flora and fauna are abounding also, during your stroll you may see monkeys and parrots among the cherry blossoms blooming in the area. Palawan is truly a tropical paradise like few others left in the world. Once again, better journey there before development kicks into high gear and the crowds roll in.
The beaches of Phuket in Thailand are also a wildly popular destination with international tourists. Considering Phuket is home to some of the finest beaches on the planet it’s easy to understand why. Finding seclusion here can be difficult, but the best chance is at Kata bay, south of the main Phuket beach of Patong. Kata is quite developed, the most developed of all the beaches I’m mentioning here, but there is a much more intimate feel to the area within a protected bay than there is among the throngs at Patong. There is plenty of lush greenery and the ocean is a beautiful greenish hue in the bay that merges into a dark blue out in the open ocean.
Our final stop on this tour of the world’s best beaches is the Maldives, an island nation 435 miles southwest of Sri Lanka. Island hopping here can remind you of Robinson Crusoe’s islands in Treasure Island. Many beaches remain undisturbed here and you can stay in a bungalow on the soft sand within a crystal blue lagoon. The Maldives’ government has capitalized on the booming tourist industry – Europeans have been traveling here for years, but the government stresses quality over quantity. That means the beaches aren’t overdeveloped and you’re likely to have some personal space on the beaches here for years to come.

Frenchman's Cove

The prettiest and most charming cove in Jamaica, if not in the Caribbean. Frenchman's Cove consists of a lagoon which meanders around a bar of sand from one direction while the sea barrels in from the other, pinched between two tiny headlands that are overhung with greenery - giving the beach a luminous green light.

Anse la Roche

A fantastic beach cove on the western side of the northern tip of Grenada. Very secluded, reached off a remote road by a path that leads down through the forest (it may be easier to take a water taxi from Hillsborough). Almost like a treasure hunt getting to this beach. Superb sand that shelves steeply into lovely clear water. A real hideaway for the day. There are no facilities so take water and supplies. Good snorkelling off the beach.

Grace Bay Beach

Grace Bay and its beach, crown jewel of Turks and Caicos, is home to some of the best rated hotels in the world. Grace Bay's soft white sands and glistening blue ocean make the perfect backdrop for some serious pampering. Snorkelling, diving, and fishing are just some of the things you can do on its beach to while away the balmy hours - but for those wanting a sedentary getaway, Grace Bay also has several spas and some quality restaurants on and nearby the beach.

Aitutaki

Although Aitutaki comes second to Rarotonga in being the visitor's favourite Cook Island, it makes up for it with the natural beauty and charisma of its beaches, as well as the fact there are way fewer people here - so for a get-away-from-it-all exotic beach escape, Aitutaki is my favourite. This fabulous triangular-shaped island has a beautiful blue lagoon and is surrounded by small, vacant island-beaches peppered with palm trees.
Aitutaki is known for excellent fishing and varied marine life. Surrounded by reef, the island is great for snorkeling, and you can snorkel right off Aitutaki beach as well. Visit the island between June and October for the driest weather - though from November to February you can see sea turtles through Aitutaki's crystal-clear waters.

Whitehaven Beach

Whitehaven Beach is a spectacular, picture-perfect white sand beach. In the competition for best beach, Whitehaven, on Whitsunday Island, has been regularly bandied about. Whitehaven Beach supporters cite the sand, which is pure white silica (which means made up of tiny grains of granite and suitable to be used to create the most precise glass for optical instruments etc.) and very very bright in the warm sun, set against 7kms of clear waters which naturally appear a stunning shade of blue. If your idea of the best beach involves having the colours just right you will love Whitehaven Beach. You can walk the beach for over 5kms, and also camp, swim, snorkel and buff your jewellery in the sand...
The best way to get to Whitehaven Beach is to moor offshore on your yacht and swim to the beach, and find a spot not frequented with day-trippers. Failing that, you need to become one yourself, and there are a number of catamaran and other boat trips from Airlie Beach to Whitehaven Beach.

Puncak Bagus : Other View of Bali

Bali is famous of its beaches. Kuta beach is among one of the best beach in the world. White soft sands, long beach, nice waves, sunset.. just perfect!

But don't forget, Bali doesn't only have beaches. Bali has four lakes and four of them in the high area near mountains and hills. Nice cool weather. There is this one place, oftenly called Puncak Bagus. Actually Puncak Bagus is the name of the cafe in the area. The area itself is called Munduk.

In this place you could see two lakes: Buyan and Tamblingan with mountains and hills background. Just perfect! You have to go in the day time. Don't get too late in the afternoon, it's mostly got foggy. You hardly see a thing when it's foggy.

Beer Massage

Thanks to you guys who commented to my last body arum article. I was really curious about the service called beer massage. I went there last week and K.S was the therapist. It's cost 200.000 for 2 hours. It's quite premium compare others. You can get 25% discount if you go before 13.00. I was there about 14.00, damn.

The massage begun with drinking a small glass of beer. It's felt quite strange. Normally you get a hot ginger tea or some healtly drinks. The spa music and the beer was just not combined. But that's the sensation. She sprayed me with a beer before applying the lotion. The beer aroma was so nice. The massage begun as usual from the back started from the feet. The show begun with massaging my b(l)ack hole. This time was real massaging. It's not pretending that it's touched accidently. She kept touching my black hole every 1 minute I think :)

Next I turned around. The best part was when she massaged my chest area. She touched my nipples then went down to my pant. Her hand slipped under my paper black pant, touched the area under my ball and rised her hand to reach more down area under my ball. So when she rised her hand, my dick which really really on high alert, was out from its cage. It's right in front of her face. FAK! She kept repeating this massage for such a long time.

As some experiences from friends and you guys, I didn't ask for extra. Well this is the worst part really. I got really really high, but no ending. But the sensation.. hmmmm... you can't find anywhere else..

ICC World Cup 2011 Schedule

Mumbai: International Cricket Council's (ICC) World Cup Organising Committee, headed by former cricket board president Sharad Pawar, on Tuesday decided to shift the 2011 World Cup secretariat to Mumbai from Lahore, after Pakistan was stripped of their 2011 World Cup hosting rights by the ICC earlier this month due to security concerns.

India will host the final and one semi-final of the 2011 World Cup while Sri Lanka will stage the other semi-final, the tournament's organising committee decided in Mumbai on Tuesday. India will host 29 of the 49 matches across eight venues, Sri Lanka will host 12 in three venues while Bangladesh will stage eight at two grounds as well as the opening ceremony on February 18, 2011.

Bangladesh would host the opening ceremony of the 2011 World Cup as well as eight matches, which would be played on two venues, Lorgat said.

The 14 matches originally scheduled to take place in Pakistan have been redistributed with eight going to India, four to Sri Lanka and two to Bangladesh. The quarter-finals will be shared India and Sri Lanka one each while Bangladesh hosting two.

Tendulkar's double ton leads India's run feast

Star batsman Sachin Tendulkar hit 203 and debutant Suresh Raina made 120 as India bettered Sri Lanka's run-spree in the high-scoring second cricket Test on Thursday.

India, kept on the field for the first two days during Sri Lanka's massive 642-4 declared, responded by piling up 669-9 by stumps on the fourth day at the Sinhalese Sports Club.

With just 13 wickets having fallen on the placid wicket in four days, the batsman-dominated Test is heading for a draw with Sri Lanka enjoying a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.

Tendulkar and Raina, who came together on the third afternoon with India on 241-4 and struggling to avoid their second successive follow-on, put on 256 runs for the fifth wicket.

Tendulkar compiled his fifth double-century, adding another feather to a glorious 168-Test career marked by more runs (13,742) and hundreds (48) than any other batsman in history. He is also the leading one-day batsman with 17,598 runs and 46 hundreds, including the only double-century in limited-overs internationals.

The 37-year-old braved the stifling hot and humid weather in the Sri Lankan capital for more than eight hours to play a marathon innings studded with 23 boundaries and a six. Tendulkar reached the 200-mark, his first in six years, with a flick off Ajantha Mendis for two runs, earning warm applause from team-mates and spectators alike.

Left-hander Raina became the ninth Indian to score a century in his first Test innings, before holing out to short mid-wicket off Mendis shortly after lunch. Raina, just 23 and already a veteran of 98 one-day internationals, was awarded his Test cap only after Yuvraj Singh reported sick on the opening day of the match.

He hit two sixes and 12 boundaries, reaching his century with a fluent off-drive against seamer Dammika Prasad that raced to the fence. Indian captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni (76) joined in the run feast after Raina's departure, adding 95 for the sixth wicket with Tendulkar and 51 for the eighth with Abhimanyu Mithun (41).

It was left to part-time spinner Tillakaratne Dilshan to get rid of Tendulkar soon after tea as wicket-keeper Prasanna Jayawardene held a bat-pad catch moving swiftly to the silly point area. Dilshan also dismissed Harbhajan Singh in the same over and later took a return catch off Dhoni to finish with three wickets.

Sri Lanka missed the wicket-taking abilities of the retired Muttiah Muralitharan and injured fast bowler Lasith Malinga as the young crop of bowlers failed to contain the Indians. Mendis finished with 4-157 from his 54 overs, while off-spinner Suraj Randiv failed to add to his two wickets on the third day and returned with 2-212 in 64 overs.

Muralitharan and Malinga had claimed 15 of the 20 Indian wickets in the first Test in Galle last week, which Sri Lanka won by 10 wickets.

Google Adsense

AdSense is a simple program to comprehend, it offers a beneficial form of promoting, adding a lot of benefits to all individuals in the chain. In this Google AdSense review I will show you the effects it could have on a business; you will see people encourage this type of promotion.
As for the surfing public AdSense banners are in all probability the most direct variant of promoting available, since they can be orchestrated to many new sites they would not have otherwise found. Suffice to say, if you've an AdSense banner on your web site, and a great number of visitors you will know it provides a large fiscal profit.
Indeed why should it work for the purchasers clicking the links, contrary to the accepted approach.
They are assisted by today's society. With bloggers and data based articles online, people may be encouraged to conclude purchases, which AdSense could provide links to applicable suppliers whilst also benefiting the publisher.
And the beauty of this is, that it works for web site visitors as well. As a matter of fact Google saw that by satisfying the people who are looking for something, and guiding them to what they need faster, everyone wins.
It's because of this that a great number of websites promote through AdSense in both content and search. They do it since in the end they learned that it works for everybody.
When we enter a web site and we see graphical type banners, our primary thought is to strike it out of our mind, because it's of no interest to us.
That's because orthodox banner advertising is unsuitable. It is exactly because people understand that they do not want to look at flashy banner ads because they think they'll be wasting their time with them.
We have got accustomed to banners that do not interest us. And we are used to them having skilled graphics. So we of course associate the two things and believe that a banner with skilled graphics has nothing to show us.
If we have a look at a text-ad we can now see that we have grown accustomed to them being targeted at what we're searching for. In essence these adverts have commercialised themselves into being viewed by any visitor.
You will find this to be typical of a no frills just stuff situation. Ultimately it means the visitors will see what they're interested in, not a few random cool graphics you have throw at them.
As expressed earlier in this Google AdSense review, web site visitors acquire an advertising mechanism, since it is effective in directing them to pages of interest and could offer up a ton of things they actually prefer to see. Somebody chancing on an article on AdSense might well have been looking for a leather jacket or doing research on leather jackets when they arrived at the article.
And most especially for everybody, including visitors, this system could only improve whilst the procedure gets further polished to construct ads more applicable to what you are looking for, not just a few of keywords on a web site.
Today, it's because of AdSense that people are searching for a lot more interesting associated things from banners, and the companies behind the web site. The search engine that is Google and the advertisers need to have fresher ideas to exhibit, since expectations have expanded a great deal.
So could this non cut throat approach actually work in today's competitive marketplace? Well, as you can see it can and it does. And as you, the visitor can see, you're the one who will relish this the most. Promoting gets less of a encumbrance and more of a benefit, and is still a benefit you can decide to ignore..
Whilst a few might feel unwilling to read articles such as this goggle AdSense review that are there strictly to compel consumers, doubtless without this stipulation they can still be useful. In the final analysis the adverts imply that you do not have to go back to your homepage each time you're obliged to complete a purchase

Pakistan seal win over Australia to share Test series

Pakistan celebrate after Umar Gul hits the winning run against Australia

Pakistan completed their first Test win against Australia for 15 years with an edgy three-wicket triumph at Headingley to share the two-match series 1-1.

Needing only 40 more runs with seven wickets left at the start of play, they soon lost Azhar Ali for 51.
And Umar Akmal, Shoaib Malik and Kamran Akmal then departed cheaply before Umar Gul finally hit the winning run.
It ended a run of 13 successive defeats by Australia and gave Salman Butt a victorious start as captain.
He was put in charge when Shahid Afridi gave up the job following Australia's win in the first Test at Lord's but had to endure an anxious 65 minutes as his side were made to struggle for almost every run by their opponents.
When Azhar was caught behind in the second over, Pakistan opted for a cautious approach, which was perhaps understandable given their past record against Ricky Ponting's side.
But poor shot selection and indecisive foot movement almost cost them dear before they reached the finishing line on 180-7.
Azhar's place in the team may be under threat if, as suggested, veterans Younus Khan and Mohammad Yousuf come back into the reckoning for the four-match series against England, which begins at Trent Bridge next Thursday.
He reached a maiden Test half century with a delightful cover drive to the boundary off a full toss from Doug Bollinger, but prodded forward at the next delivery and got an inside edge to the keeper to give the left-arm paceman a 29th birthday present.
Umar Akmal's streaky edge through the vacant gully area reduced the requirement to just 30 but he went for eight when he nicked low to the keeper in a Ben Hilfenhaus wicket maiden, bringing elder brother Kamran to the middle to join Shoaib Malik.
Former skipper Malik was then dropped by Michael Clarke diving full length to his right at second slip off Bollinger.
In the next over from Hilfenhaus, however, his sweetly struck drive was astonishingly caught by Marcus North standing only a few yards from the bat at short cover.
Malik went for 13, with his side still 19 runs short of their target, but Kamran guided a four through the gully region and struck a cover drive to the boundary to ease the pressure.

Ricky Ponting's face revealed his feelings about Australia's display

There was still time for controversy as he square cut Mitchell Johnson to gully where Mike Hussey claimed a low catch but Kamran stood his ground and umpire Rudi Koertzen sought help in making his decision from the TV official.
Replays were inconclusive, so Koertzen, who was given a guard of honour by the players as he made his way out to the centre for his final day of Test cricket, gave Kamran not out, much to the chagrin of the Australians.
The scores were level when Kamran drove uppishly at a wide one from Johnson and Hussey dived superbly to his left to take the catch, showing admirable restraint in the process, but Gul confidently struck his first ball through the covers to see Pakistan to their first Test win since beating New Zealand last December.
Popular South African Koertzen was presented with a large bronze statue of himself after ending an 18-year umpiring career.
"I thought I would have a nice and easy day then they started putting pressure on me to see if the old guy can handle it," said the 61-year-old after officiating in his 108th Test match.
"That's cricket. It's an amazing sport and I was so honoured to be part of it and I'll definitely miss it.
"I am really looking forward to retirement. I've got a few things in the pipeline but I am looking forward to taking a break and spending time with my family."

Ricky Ponting's head in the clouds as Australia are skittled out for 88 by brilliant Pakistan

By:Rayan Shah
Ricky Ponting has not inserted a Test side since he asked England to bat at Edgbaston five years ago and threw away the Ashes. How he will be wishing he broke that habit on Wednesday.
The Australian captain looked down at the pitch instead of up at the clouds at Headingley after winning the toss and, scarred by the consequences of his fateful mistake in 2005, condemned his side to two-and-three-quarter hours of abject misery in this second and final Test.

Take that! Mohammad Asif celebrates the wicket of Australia captain Ricky Ponting

With it should come a crushing defeat by Pakistan after an extraordinary opening day.
The facts make such unbelievable reading that they will bring joy not only to Pakistan but also to England as they look forward to their Ashes defence this winter.
Australia were bowled out for 88, simply blown away in 33.1 overs by a combination of magnificent seam and swing bowling and their own technical shortcomings at a ground where overhead conditions are paramount.
It was their second ever lowest score against Pakistan and their lowest against anyone for 26 years when a ferocious West Indian attack in their prime humiliated them for 76 on the world's fastest pitch at the WACA.
Mohammad Aamer, Mohammad Asif and Umar Gul are not in the class of Malcolm Marshall, Joel Garner and Michael Holding but they were a mighty potent combination yesterday, pitching the ball up and exploiting conditions expertly against an Australian line-up who kept pushing ineptly against the moving ball.

A Head start: Pakistan bowled Australia out for just 88 runs on Day One

Ponting clearly learnt nothing from the Ashes Test here in Leeds last year when Andrew Strauss elected to bat and saw England plummet to 76 for six at lunch and 102 all out.
On Wednesday, Australia were 73 for six at lunch and skittled soon after as the most promising young fast bowler in the world hurried them to a double figure total.
Aamer, an 18-year- old modern-day Wasim Akram, was on a hat-trick two balls after the interval after two superlative swinging deliveries cleaned up Steve Smith, middle stump, and Mitchell Johnson, off-stump.

Perfect start: new Pakistan captain Salman Butt

The teenager was simply unplayable and a whisker away from being the youngest bowler in Test history to take a hat-trick, Ben Hilfenhaus pushing nervously and just missing an outswinger.
And to compound Australia's misery, the sun came out when Pakistan batted, the pitch suddenly looked flat, Ponting's bowlers pitched too short and the 'home' side moved to 148 for three, a lead of 60, despite two late strikes from Shane Watson.
What an extraordinary turnaround from the most unpredictable team in world cricket.
Pakistan captain Shahid Afridi had appeared to be deserting a sinking ship when he quit after just one Test in charge at Lord's last week and nothing seemed more certain than Australia's 14th successive Test win over Pakistan.
Yet here Pakistan were, five days later and under a new leader in Salman Butt , suddenly transformed into world-beaters and showing England they will come up against a formidable bowling unit in the four-Test series that begins at Trent Bridge next week.

Surely even Pakistan cannot fail to record their f irst Test win over Australia in 15 years . . . can they?
Australia were almost as bad with the ball, their seamers under-performing again and Hilfenhaus reduced to grumpily sledging batsmen who refused to be as accommodating as the Australians.
Tim Nielsen, the Australia coach, said: 'We discussed bowling first but we were surprised how dry the wicket looked and we felt that if we could get through the new ball it would flatten out. They bowled beautifully but when you're bowled out for 88 you haven't had a good day.'
Bowler Gul said: 'It was a shocking decision by Australia to bat first . We would definitely have bowled if we had won the toss.'
What a shame there were not more people here to see it. Yesterday, no more than 5,000 wre present , and if people leave it to the weekend to turn up it may be too late.
Only the weather might extend the match, the players absurdly being taken off for bad light immediately after Umar Akmal had smashed Smith for an outrageous straight six.
No matter. There was more than enough action.

• Middlesex seamer Steven Finn, in contention for the first Test against Pakistan next week, conceded 115 runs for his two wickets in 27 overs against Sussex at Uxbridge yesterday.

Asha Kumara Indian Teen in Innocent White

Asha Kumara might think that she’s an innocent angel, but we all know that this Indian teen gets kinky as hell when given half a chance. She just loves dressing up in all sorts of tight outfits that she just loves to tease everyone with.

Wouldn’t you love to see more of her? I know I wish she would just run around naked all day long. This Indian teen drives me crazy when she’s in the mood to tease, letting her nipples and pussy peek out without fully revealing themselves.

Sweet Lily Koh Ass

Lily Koh has the kind of Asian ass to die for, and I am just dying to see that shit bouncing up and down. She’s taken off to the middle of nowhere once again, letting her panties just barely peek through. You know that her yummy pussy is hiding from between that cloth, and she’s even sporting some sneakers for a super casual look that I really like. Of course, my eyes keep drifting up to her ass. I would love to have her bent over and moaning in my lap, spanking that shit over and over again until it was beat red.
