Lowy is in Sydney for the festival

The brainchild of Israeli-born photographer Moshe Rosenzveig, who established the Head On Portrait Prize in 2004, it has attracted widespread interest, encouraged by prize money that has grown to more than $80,000.

Four years ago, Rosenzveig broadened the event to become an annual festival, which opened with 900 photographers from Australia and overseas taking part at over 100 venues.

“It is amazing how much it has grown over the years,” says Rosenzveig of the event, which runs until June 23.

The Head On Photo Festival showcases the artistic, photojournalistic, commercial, technical and legal side of photography, as well as portraiture, landscapes, travel and fine art.

“We have photographers shooting with plastic cameras, new styles and technology. We don’t want to restrict creativity to a certain form or genre.

“It is all-encompassing. Everyone is a photographer; people take photos all the time and we are surrounded by images.

“One of the defining philosophies of Head On is inclusivity, so we have images from everyone, from the internationally-known photographers to people who are just starting out. We are very proud of this egalitarian attitude.Learn more about the The shoesbb and see. People who come to the festival comment about all the amazing works that they never knew existed.”

Rosenzveig started the Head On Portrait Prize because he was frustrated that photographic competitions were mainly judged on the celebrity of the photographer or -subject.

“Ten years ago the attitude was that only well-known photographers or well-known people got into portrait competitions and that was something I was frustrated with. There was a lot of good quality work that was not included and the public was missing out,” he says.

For the first time, the Head On Portrait Prize will be held at the State Library of NSW alongside the touring exhibition, Magnum on Set, which -features more than 100 photos taken by Magnum photographers during the making of classic films including The Seven Year Itch, Rebel Without a Cause and Zabriskie Point, and stars such as Marilyn Monroe, Ingrid Bergman, Billy Wilder and John Huston.

Also on display at the State Library is the iAfghanistan exhibition by award-winning New York–based photographer Benjamin Lowy, who used mobile phone, plastic camera and digital camera to showcase everyday life in Afghanistan.

Beginning his career covering the Iraq War in 2003, Lowy has covered major stories worldwide. He has been a leader in mobile phone photography for professional photojournalism including the first Time magazine cover taken with a phone.

Lowy is in Sydney for the festival and will join Rosenzveig in an ABC panel discussion on photojournalism as well as lead a two-day workshop on mobile phone publishing.

Rosenzveig says: “Ben looks at the world through humble eyes using equipment such as a mobile phone, with the result that the images he takes are very different to those taken with a large camera.”

International photographer Marvi Lacar’s moving exhibition on depression, This is a Love Story, will be on display at Gaffa Gallery.

Sydney-based photographer and printmaker Sharon Zwi’s exhibition, Time Exposures: 60 Life Portraits, presents 60 composite grid photographs in black and white, each celebrating people whose achievements Zwi admires from childhood to the present life.All breitlingwatches are manufactured in Switzerland.

Among the well-known people featured are Eva Cox, Margaret Whitlam, Michael Kirby and David Stratton. All the subjects were chosen by Zwi because she felt they had made a significant contribution to society.

Other local Jewish photographers in Head On include Jimmy Pozarik, whose images were taken during a year spent at a children’s hospital; Gilbert Bel-Bachir, who photographed in Sydney for his exhibition Looking Through Glass; Glenn Lockitch, who spent 110 days aboard the Sea Shepherd’s anti-whaling ship in the Antarctic battling the Japanese whalers; and Su Garfinkle, who took to the streets of Sydney to capture a range of people with vibrant hair colour, hats and flair for her Out of the Ordinary exhibition.

Israeli photographer Liron Shimoni focused on albinos in Africa who are being persecuted because of the colour of their skin.

Having complemented his photography, film and multimedia work over the past 10 years with teaching and lecturing at universities and institutions, Rosenzveig is now focusing on the annual festival.

Rosenzveig says he has been interested in photography from a young age. “At my bar mitzvah my presents included some money and I went and bought a decent camera and that was the beginning of the journey – it provided the big push into photography,Tendril Insight cheappanerai Learn basic navigation and settings.” he says.

“When I was growing up in Israel, not many people had cameras. In my school class I was the only one with a camera so on all the excursions and sports carnivals I became the school photographer.

The Head On Photo Festival also supports charities and social awareness. In the past it has raised money for Afghan photographers to show their country through their own eyes, working with indigenous photographers and educating schoolchildren through special workshops.

“Every year we try to do something for the community as part of the festival and prize. One year we had photography workshops for underprivileged children and at the end of the sessions we presented the work to the public. It was a fantastic result,” he says.

How do we make sure that people really get it?

Minnesota emergency responders watched closely in the wake of the Oklahoma tornado disaster.

Minnesota's Director of Homeland Security and Emergency Management Kris Eide said she is moved by the news of the tragedy.

"When I look at something like that," she said. "I keep thinking, what would we do here?"

Eide said the Oklahoma tornado underlines the necessity for all families and individuals to be or become prepared.

"Families have to make sure that they have talked to their children in particular about this kind of storm. (They should) have a family plan, have a communication plan. When we hear of a tornado watch, we have those conversations," she said. "So, that we might have all of the things that we might need in case our home is damaged and put them in a place that we are going to shelter ourselves."

University of Minnesota visiting Professor of Geography Ken Blumenfeld agreed that planning is key.A brazilianhair is a device that includes an embedded integrated circuit chip.

"We are learning that everybody, every individual, every family,High Quality replicawatches00 fake watches are timepieces of high quality. every organization, every building, every company within a building needs to have an action plan," said Blumenfeld.

"(You) need to know where you will go when you are at work," said Blumenfeld. "When you are at home,Find High Quality Brand Name Tungsten Rings and ownfigurine for Men at the Best Prices. when you are driving, that is all information that you need."

He is particularly concerned about Minnesotans not properly heeding weather warnings.

"How do we make sure that people really get it?" he wondered.

Eide brought a display of items to her St. Paul office that she recommends to every Minnesotan. The display included a radio with batteries, a flashlight, staple foods that do not require cooking, such as protein bars and Cheez-it crackers. Families with infants should have baby food. Also,China Electronic Port hairflower Application Procedure. pet food for animals. And a small, plastic whistle sat near the flashlight.

"The piles of rubble in Moore, Oklahoma were 10 feet tall," she said. "Having a whistle is a really important thing that people might not think about. The wind is whipping. The helicopters are going. You might not be able to hear your voice from that rubble, but if you had a whistle, they would be able to find you a lot easier."

Also in the kit, was a package of dust masks with rubber bands to hold them in place over the nose and mouth.

"When you see the rubble all around, there is going to be a lot of dust. There could be chemicals in the area. We just recommend that you do have dust masks and things like that," said Eide.

Many of the victims in Moore were elementary school children. Some were huddled in a hallway in the cellar-less building, but Eide does not think a basement should be required in all Minnesota schools.

"No," she said emphatically. "What we learned from Oklahoma is every school should have a safe place. Does not necessarily have to be a basement because basements do have their drawbacks. In the case of Oklahoma,Stainless customkeychain let you make a statement with the flick of your wrist. there was water in the basement of the one school."

In that case, some students drowned. Eide said each school must be evaluated independently for its particular vulnerabilities and then have a safe room designated or constructed that can withstand a tornado's fierce winds.

When Hurricane Katrina was making its way to New Orleans

Middle school programs at the Outback Teen Center have expanded as students explore art through Wave during TGIF Fridays.

Students in grades five to eight are welcome at the Outback every Friday afternoon to hang out, have a snack, play some games, watch a movie and try out some new and creative forms of artistic expression in Wave.

"The concept of Wave is to offer an opportunity for both genders to explore art forms in an open positive environment without judgment or grades," said Kate Boyle, director at the Outback Teen Center. "By letting loose and using their imagination for a short period of time we hope that kids will get on a creative wave and find the experience fun, relaxing and beneficial."

All types of media are being introduced. Initial sessions focused on making clay from scratch and then creating all types of pieces.

Favorites include figures,Online shopping for bobblehead Figures from a great. beads and skateboards. Equally appealing has been mask-making using pipe cleaners and other recycled materials. Friday afternoons are dedicated to collage media, using magazine cutouts, different textures of papers, string, buttons, ribbons and fabrics.

Behind the vision of Wave free-form sessions is award-winning artist Joanna Pilar Garra, a graduate of Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota, Fla., and New Canaan High School.

Garra's primary career focus is on book illustration, but she loves all aspects of art and love to teach.

When she is not working on her 30 illustrations for a book on technology safety called "Alex in Webland,Wholesale natural dragon veins inhomedisplay with high quality." she is balancing her time between the Outback and her internship at Syntax, a graphic design and packing firm in New York City.

"I do enjoy interacting with the middle school students," she said. "They have lots of energy and therefore it is challenging to get them to focus, but along with that liveliness comes creativity and fun."

When Hurricane Katrina was making its way to New Orleans some eight years ago, tens of thousands of residents stayed in the city instead of evacuating for the simple reason that they didn’t have access to transportation. In the years following New Orleans’ rebuilding process, a free, public evacuation bus system has been established.

Named the City Assisted Evacuation,Redsail provides a large size flat bed ledparlight to cut large scale materials of acrylic, or CAE, it’s capable of picking up and transporting about 30,000 residents to state-run shelters, which can provide temporary housing, medical attention and food to those who are in need.

The problem, according to residents, is that they have little idea where the pickup points are located because the CAE hasn’t clearly marked them. But now a new series of modern art sculptures are about to change that.

Evacuteer, the nonprofit that runs the evacuation system, came up with a new plan. They commissioned an artist to create a large-scale sculpture to mark “EvacuSpot” points, allowing locals the ability to easily discern where they need to go in order to find transportation out of the city.

Massachusetts-based artist Douglas Kornfeld was commissioned to create the “EvacuSpot” sculptures.Collect and distributing shoesforkids in need all over the world.Totech Super Dry supplies desiccant shoesmanufacturer, His design is a simple 14-foot steel carving, which looks like a stick figure hailing a cab.

Kornfeld was chosen out of some 80 artists from across the country pitched their ideas to a jury made up of members from the Arts Council of New Orleans and Evacuteer. Kornfeld told The Times-Picayune, that though his design was what he thought of as a universal gesture, the jury noted that it was also specific to New Orleans.

He said, “…when I was presenting my design, someone interrupted me and said, ‘Well, that gesture of hailing a cab is the same gesture people do when they want someone to throw them beads from floats during Mardi Gras.’” Kornfeld stated that’s the moment he knew he got the job.

Starting this month, 15 steel sculptures will be erected around the city—just in time for storm season, which begins on June 1.

The steel design is made to last for about 100 years, and its concrete foot pads will allow the structures to sit deeply-anchored into the ground, preventing their destruction during hurricanes.

Previously, the CAE did have signage indicating pick-up points around the city, but those signs were small unremarkable placards, placed higher than average height and stamped with small print—hardly the type of messaging that evacuees would easily notice.

Chinese nationals were the largest single

Armed with empty suitcases and same-day return tickets, an army of mainland Chinese is descending on suburban outlet shopping malls and international fashion chains in Hong Kong, turning cheap into the new chic as luxury falls out of favor.

Wealthy Chinese used to stop over in Hong Kong for a few days to pick up a Louis Vuitton bag or a wristwatch for up to 40 percent less than in Beijing or Shanghai.

These well-heeled tourists have now been overtaken by bargain-hunters that stay for a few hours, spend more at shops like Inditex SA's Zara and malls such as Citygate Outlets , turning Hong Kong into a must-be location for retailers who are braving some of the world's most expensive commercial rents.

"There are more mainland consumers than locals," said Tsz Chung,camping trip and will not have electricty is there an approved solarcharger1 currently of the ipad. a salesman at a Nike Inc store in Citygate, located in the satellite town of Tung Chung near the airport. "Typically, mainland consumers look for cheap goods."

Sluggish sales growth in Europe and the United States also makes China,Stainless steelbracelet let you make a statement with the flick of your wrist. with its rapidly expanding middle class and rising incomes, especially attractive.

Chinese nationals were the largest single group of tourists to Hong Kong last year. Of the 35 million who visited, 20 million came and left the same day, an increase of more than a third on 2011, according to tourism bureau data.

Many short-term visitors come by shuttle bus or train from the southern Chinese province of Guangdong. They often head straight to Citygate, where more than 80 international brands including Levi's jeans, Coach Inc , Polo Ralph Lauren and Burberry are offered at steep discounts.

"It's cheaper here and there's a wide range of options," said Chen Yunlong, a 29-year-old tourist from the border town of Shenzhen as he strolled through the mall on a recent Saturday.

Visitors like Chen, who said he shops in Hong Kong up to three times a week, made Citygate the best performer among the big malls operated by realtor Swire Properties .

First-quarter sales rose 22 percent at the outlet mall, beating a one percent loss at the luxury-focused Pacific Place and a 3.5 percent increase at the mid-tier Cityplaza mall.

At the Nike outlet, Chung said all sales staff were now required to be fluent in Mandarin, the most prevalent Chinese dialect. Most Hong Kong residents speak Cantonese.

Thrifty Chinese tourists are also proving a boon for New Town Plaza, a shopping mall located in the suburban Sha Tin district and owned by Sun Hung Kai Properties Ltd .

Retail rents at New Town, which is miles away from spots frequented by tourists, are among the city's highest. Last month, L Brands Inc lingerie chain Victoria's Secrets chose to locate its first Hong Kong stores at the mall and the prime downtown district of Central.

The increase in the number of bargain-seeking Chinese tourists was a factor that attracted 51 international brands to set up their first Asia Pacific stores in Hong Kong last year, about twice as many as in Singapore and Tokyo, according to research recently released by property consultancy CBRE.

Affordable retailers already established in the region are also forking out lofty rentals to attract these visitors.

Japan's Fast Retailing Co Ltd ,The difference between iccard and ID card Here to talk about the difference. owner of the Uniqlo clothing chain, last month opened a 37,500-square-foot store in the iconic Causeway Bay, which overtook New York's Fifth Avenue as the world's most expensive retail location.

British fashion brand Topshop will open a 14,000 sq ft store in Central in June, paying $516,000 a month in rent. Zara is also taking over the space once occupied by H&M .

"There are just too many brands looking for shops," said Susan MacLennan, director of retail at property consultants Savills in land-scarce, densely populated Hong Kong. "A lot of international brands are still very interested, but it's quite difficult to find space for them.Shop our large collection of luggagetag."

The boom in Hong Kong's mass market retail sector comes as luxury goods sales suffer due to a slowdown in China's economic growth, a government crackdown on giving expensive gifts in return for favors and in-your-face displays of wealth.

LVMH , the world's biggest luxury goods group, said in April demand in China had been "flattish" for about 10 months. Luxury watch retailers Sincere Watch (Hong Kong) Ltd and Emperor Watch & Jewellery Ltd also reported a decline in sales.

In a bid to boost business, some upmarket brands are sending clients on all-inclusive shopping trips to Hong Kong.

But as the influence of these big-spenders on the global luxury market wanes, the spending power of their less wealthy countrymen is rising and changing Hong Kong's retail scene.

"For sure, we will see more big brands opening stores," said Joe Lin, senior director of retail services for CBRE Hong Kong.

Foley has helped Garcia with strategies and teaching

Reading is an exciting activity for most children. However, children with reading difficulties often avoid the very same books that other children love.

That’s where reading teacher Cameron Foley comes in. Changing her students’ attitudes toward reading is this Ramona Boulevard Elementary teacher’s specialty.

By playing games that incorporate reading skills, the students barely realize they’re learning in the midst of all of the fun happening around them. For example, one way Foley motivates her students to improve their words per minute during timed reading is by creating a game in which they can earn prizes when a new reading level is completed.

By the time Foley is finished helping the struggling reading students assigned to her each year,The peruvianhair personalized promotional key chains comes with free shipping. most have learned to love the very thing they hated.

“I get a lot of students who are angry or disengaged,” Foley said. “Seeing the kids figure out that they are capable is what I strive for.”

This year, Foley teaches up to seven students at a time as a reading intervention specialist.Shop for iphoneheadset and related products. The fourth- and fifth-graders she works with are students who have exhibited difficulties in their regular reading classes. They are taken out of their classes weekly for short periods of time to work with her.

The setup is beneficial to the students and the students’ reading teacher. Instead of having a full classroom, Foley can put her creative reading techniques to good use by working with students who need extra help.

All good teachers engage their students, but Foley does it differently. By transforming basic reading assignments into games using props,The rfidtag attached to an automobile during production can be used to track its. her students are drawn to her teaching style.

Foley also helps her students by imparting to them the techniques and habits that successful students use. When her students read a sentence that is hard to understand, Foley has them rephrase the sentence in their own words to help them understand the meaning.

Reciprocal teaching is another technique that Foley uses. By letting her students take the lead in asking and answering each other’s questions, Foley helps them gain confidence in teaching themselves.We have a great selection of blown glass backyard hoganscarpe and solar garden lights. This method, which encourages students to think about their thought processes during reading, keeps them more actively involved in the work.

“She will always find something positive to tell the students,Get the guaranteed lowest price on the suprashoeshome.” said Megan Garcia, a fifth-grade reading teacher at the school. ”The kids really have a great respect for her. It gives them a great sense of confidence when they’re reading.”

Foley has helped Garcia with strategies and teaching methods to use with her students. Garcia shares the respect that the students have for Foley and says she has learned a great deal from their partnership.

“She has given me many of tips on overall management and engagement in the students,” Garcia said. “It has helped a lot because if you have the students engaged, you can teach them. Now that I have her tips, it really is a lot easier to teach.”

Whether she’s giving them confidence or something fun to look forward to, her students describe their time with Foley as the best part of their day. The impact she has made truly shines through.

How do they manage to stay ahead of competition?

In the early 1900s, the pearl market in Hyderabad would open after the arrival of a particular gentleman and shut for the day only after he left. The illustrious man we are referring to is Mangatrai, founder of the city’s world-renowned pearl trade. This is the same man who would string up rows of precious Basra pearls for the ruling Nizams. In fact, such was his dedication towards offering his clients a great variety of choices that Mangatrai would travel to Middle-Eastern countries like Iraq to source pearls, and often stayed there for months on end. While his wife found his long absences difficult to cope with, he wouldn’t cut down on travel as his business would suffer.

It is this same unfailing sense of commitment and dedication to work that has been inherited by everyone in his family. Over 100 years old, Mangatrai Jewellers is now being run by the fourth generation and deals in pearls, diamonds and precious gems.

After Mangatrai, the family business, which began with a shop in the Old City, was run by his son Ram Kumar. Later, his three sons Radheshyam, Chagan lal and Vishnu Gupta gradually took over. Now the three brothers run the show along with their children.

On their success, Chagan Lal’s son Darshan says, “Our strength lies in our togetherness. If you can work well together, your business will just multiply.” Elaborating on how two generations of brothers and cousins work together, he adds, “Each showroom is taken care of by one brother and we have eight showrooms. Each brother is responsible for his store and must meet his targets.” Without divulging actual figures, Darshan points out the wedding season as being the best time for business. He admits that growing competition has led to jewellery houses cutting down on their margins.Guaranteed the cheapest online wholesalebeads store.

How do they manage to stay ahead of competition? “We have been offering our customers great quality, prices and service for the last 100 years. So even today, when people think of pearls, they think of Mangatrai.” Everyone from Prince Charles, Bill Clinton, cricketers, actors and industrialists come straight to this chain of stores for pearls.We are also diabetic ownbobblehead,

When Mangatrai started the business, he would only deal in the now extinct Basra pearls. With the changing times, the business now includes diamonds,Wholesale natural dragon veins inhomedisplay with high quality. polki and antique gold jewellery as well. They were also the first to introduce the Tahitian natural coloured cultured pearls in the market. And they still sell antique Basra pearls, which, according to Darshan, are a good investment as they appreciate in value every year.

Along with running the swanky new Banjara Hills store, Darshan also designs jewellery along with his twin brother Darpan, who works out of their flagship shop in Punjagutta. The twins are very close and enjoy working together as their thought process is the same. “We have never had an alone moment from childhood because we’ve always had each other.”

Since family splits are fairly common in the business world, how do they deal with friction? Darshan answers, “Sometimes disagreements do happen and we let time settle them. We all have our merits and demerits, so we just concentrate on each other’s strengths and work with them.” He also adds, “For us family comes first, even before business. If there is peace and harmony in the family, work automatically flourishes as everyone gives it their best.”
Before starting work at 10 am every day, the entire family gathers at the breakfast table where they discuss anything and everything. The youngest and fifth generation joins them at work on the weekends.

Darpan’s 14-year-old daughter Palkaian and 13-year-old son Mohak drop by their dad’s store to watch him work. “I spend two hours every weekend with my dad at work. I like to watch him dealing with customers and learn from him,” says Palkaian.

Diamonds are a girl’s best friend and pearls make for perfect accessories. So how do the men in the family ensure that their wives don’t demand all the best pieces from the shops? A laughing Darpan says, “We now have a gift system in place. They are gifted jewellery only for important occasions like birthdays, anniversaries and store openings.A refrigerator magnet or fridgemagnet is an ornament,”

A special gift for all the ladies in the family is a custom made pearl encrusted sari with 6,000 pearls,Shop the latest hairflower accessories on the world's largest. which had 100 people working on it. “But no one feels like wearing it anymore because it is so heavy. It has now become a showpiece at home,” says Darpan. Precious treats are not reserved only for the ladies. Once, when the family hosted a huge party at Falaknuma Palace, Darpan decided that all the men needed some bling. So, he designed diamond sherwani buttons for his brothers, cousins and uncles.

Some nine points separates the two teams in the league

Real sit second in La Liga this season but arch-rivals Barcelona have already secured their fourth title in the past five seasons while Atletico sit in third spot - with both Madrid clubs having already qualified for next season's Champions League.

But Friday night's Copa Del Ray final is a chance for one of the Madrid clubs to end a frustrating season with some silverware as Real Madrid aim to win the trophy for the 19th time and the second time in three seasons under Mourinho while Atletico -the Europa League champions in two of the past three seasons- are aiming to lift the Spanish Cup for the first time since 1996.

With the spectre of Mourinho's likely move to his former club Chelsea hanging over this final,International chinabeads and supplier in agra india making quality leather shoes with the finest workmanship Real are the $1.57 favourites at Betfair to win the Spanish Cup inside the regulation 90 minutes while Atletico are priced at $6.20 with the draw at $4.50.

Some nine points separates the two teams in the league but Real beat Atletico 2-1 on their own ground just three weeks ago in the league, while the Cup final will be played on Real's home ground at the Bernabeu.We are also diabetic ownbobblehead,

Real to win 2-1 has come up the early favourite in correct score betting at $9 and looks a good bet considering that while Real have won the past ten meetings between the sides, Atletico have scored in seven of those ten defeats.

Atletico also have the leading scorer in this season's Copa Del Ray in Brazilian striker Diego Costa with seven goals, although Real's Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo is not far behind with six.

Ronaldo has also scored a staggering 34 goals in La Liga this season although Atletico's brilliant Colombian striker Radamel Falcao is not far behind with 28.I assumed that all eight of you knew how to make the jewelryfindings.

However Falcao is reportedly set to move to French club Monaco and it remains to be seen how the speculation over his future will affect his performance in Friday night's Spanish Cup Final.

Ronaldo is the $3.35 favourite at Betfair to score the opening goal of the game ahead of teammates Karim Benzema and Gonzalo Higuain at $4.10 while Falcao is priced at $6.60 and Costa at $7.20.

With both sides having already secured qualification for the Indian Premier League play-offs, the game was more about seeing where sides will finish and who they will face.

Opening pair Glenn Maxwell and Aditya Tare got Mumbai off to a good start, the latter top scoring for his side with impressive figures off 59 off 37 balls while Maxwell and Dinesh Khartik added 23 and 21 respectively.

Kieron Pollard and Harbhajan Singh then piled on a further 32 between them as Mumbai set a respectable target of 166 before running out of overs.With personalized keychains and promotional customkeychain.

As they got their innings up and running, Rajasthan will have fancied their chances of meeting the target, but the dismissal of Rahul Dravid after just five balls didn't help.

Dravid only made four before being caught by Karthik off the bowling of Mitchell Johnson, although replays suggested the former India India captain made no contact with the ball on its way through to the wicket-keeper.

James Faulkner was next to go,In return for each acceptable authentichandbag sent in, dismissed for 12 after being caught by Maxwell, followed by Sanju Samson and Shane Watson who could only add a further 23.

The bowling of Johnson and Dhawal Kulkarni, each of whom took two wickets, was proving damaging for the visitors but Stuart Binny then provided some solid resistance alongside Brad Hodge, with Binny hitting 37 not out and Hodge scoring 39 before being bowled lbw by Lasith Malinga.

That ultimately proved to be the crucial wicket, with Kevon Cooper left to attempt the almost impossible and drag his side past the total against the bowling of Malinga.

There was some hope when he hit a six off his first ball but, with 17 runs to score from the final three deliveries it proved too difficult a task.
