The paradox in solved in that the pole fits it both frames of references when it appears that it will only fit in one.

In the bug-rivet the paradox continues because it works from one point of view but not the other - being impossible.

Can you clear up this timeline for me.

Timeline in t' (the pole's frame of reference)

Right side of pole enters at t'=0
Right side of barn closes at t'=5.38ns
Right side of pole leaves at t'=16.14ns

Left side of pole enters at t'=74.07ns
Left side of barn closes at t'=74.07ns
Left side of pole leaves at t'=90.21ns

These were taken directly from the calculations.
