Emerging markets will be no soft touch for blended Scotch
Blended Scotch whisky producers are banking on emerging markets to provide the growth to offset flat or declining sales elsewhere but a new report from just-drinks suggests this cannot be expected as a matter of course. Meanwhile, any revival in mature markets will be hard to achieve without fresh thinking about how and to whom blended Scotch is marketed.

I bought some delphiniums last year but need to move them - I don't know what kind of light and moisture conditions they require. I have beds on every side of my house (but those that get morning light only are very dry). What does a delphinium need to be happy?
I'm sure, by now, you realize I'm answering these backward..
Your delphs should be poking up out of the ground by now. Too much wet can induce rot in these fellows as well. All the books say Full Sun - but I've seen some OLD delphs happy in a mostly shady site. [Full sun means 5 - 6 + hrs / day]
Make sure your soil is healthy by adding in some organic matter - always a good idea before planting. Consider strong winds when you're siting as well. Staking is always a pain - but neccessary with these guys. I like to use a medium sized tomato cage. Place it right over the emerging foliage and bury it to the first rung well before serious new growth starts. Within a few weeks, you won't be able to see the support at all.
When your delph has finished it's first bloom cycle, cut down the flowerstalks almost to the ground. Fresh, new growth will start up again and you should get another flush of hearty blooms by Septemberish. If you want to collect seed, do so from the second flush - otherwise you won't be able to trim the plant early enough for it's second bloom.

A Global Framework for Cooperation Among CDS CCP Regulators |
February 19, 2009
Representatives from regulatory agencies with direct authority over one or more of the existing or proposed credit-default swap central counterparties (CDS CCP) discussed today possible information sharing arrangements and other methods of cooperation within the regulatory community. Today's discussion follows an initial meeting held at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on January 12, 2009. The discussions included representatives from the Federal Reserve, Commodity Futures Trading Commission, U.K. Financial Services Authority, the German Federal Financial Services Authority (BaFin), Deutsche Bundesbank, the New York State Banking Department, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the European Central Bank and the Hungarian Financial Services Authority in their roles as co-chairs of the joint ESCB-CESR Working Group on Central Counterparties. The primary objectives of the effort discussed today include:
To facilitate communication among the regulatory community with respect to all CDS CCPs, CDS CCP regulators plan to host a workshop in the near future with representatives of other interested regulators and governmental authorities that are currently considering CDS market matters, to discuss the CDS CCP regulatory interests and information needs of other authorities and the market more broadly.

Favorite Jersey Day: The Best Uniform Clash for Each NHL Team
By Adam Rickert ,
In case you didn't know, today is Wear Your Favorite Jersey Day, which kicks off Hockey Weekend Across America.
Unfortunately, I was stubborn enough not to bring one of my very many NHL jerseys up to college, so I'm sitting here without wearing my favorite sweater and feeling like I need to do something to make up for it.
There have been a lot of articles about jerseys in the NHL, but most are the cliched "Ugliest NHL Jerseys of All Time" and whatnot. We are going to go in a different direction today.
Basically, a uniform clash is just what its name suggests—how well uniforms clash with one another. Usually, these will be between teams of different colors, as red vs. red or blue vs. blue often does not contain much of a variety in color.
Which opponent creates the most aesthetically-pleasing or best-looking game for each NHL team? Click through the slides and find out.
Anaheim third jersey vs. Chicago road jersey
Anaheim has worn its alternate threads several times against the Blackhawks, and for good reason. The jerseys are obviously very easy to differentiate no matter how bad your sight is, and they also combine for a good-looking contrast in color.
Think of any color (besides purple or blue) and see if you can't find it in this matchup.
Boston home jersey vs. Montreal road jersey
There are so many good things about every game between these two. Most importantly, it is arguably the greatest rivalry in the NHL and it is an old-school Original Six battle every time the two teams step on the same ice surface.
Also, these are two of the best-looking jerseys in hockey, and they look even better when matched up against each other. Both have classic designs, and the intimidating black and gold scheme of Boston clashes great with the cool red, white and blue of the Canadians.
Buffalo home jersey vs. Philadelphia road jersey
Both of these teams revamped their uniforms a few years back, and they both took on a vintage feel. Every time the Flyers visit Buffalo, the game looks like something out of the '70s.
Well, it would if the Sabres would just get rid of those chest numbers and the silver piping around the arms.
Calgary third jersey vs. Edmonton road jersey
Both of these teams brought back their beloved jerseys from the '70s and '80s a few years back. The Flames installed their classic look as an alternate to be worn a few times a year, but Edmonton restored its Gretzky-era uniforms full-time with a white and blue set.
Whenever these jerseys are worn during the Battle of Alberta, the game takes on a vintage look, reminiscent of the exciting history of this great rivalry.
Carolina road jersey vs. Toronto home jersey
Like so many other Eastern Conference teams, the Carolina hurricanes are primarily red. Obviously a clash with one of the many other red teams often results in too much red on the TV screen.
Toronto has some of the best blue uniforms in the league, with a classic look and the perfect balance of blue and white.
When these teams meet in Toronto, it is always a pretty good-looking game.
Chicago road jersey vs. Edmonton home jersey
The white Blackhawks jersey looks great no matter which team it is worn against thanks to the vintage design and beautiful plethora of colors.
The Oilers were chosen for this slide since they, too, have a very colorful jersey and an extremely similar striping pattern that seems to suggest that these teams were meant to play against each other.
Colorado road jersey vs. Minnesota home jersey
It always reminds me of nature every time these two teams play. Obviously, the Minnesota Wild's team name is supposed to evoke that anyway, but something about the maroon and turquoise matching up against red and green has a natural feel to it.
Columbus road jersey vs. Nashville home jersey
With a red, white and blue color scheme, it is tough to find a jersey that clashes well with Columbus's since most teams are either primarily red or blue.
Thankfully, Columbus's division rival Nashville switched to primarily yellow jerseys last season, providing viewers with a very bright and colorful matchup every time they play.
Dallas home jersey vs. Chicago road jersey
When all else fails, Chicago's white sweaters always provide for an excellent clash among teams that do not have much of a variety of colors.
Dallas has some of the most boring jerseys in the league, but they usually look decent when worn against any team with red in its color scheme.
Detroit road jersey vs. Toronto third jersey
Every time the Wings and Leafs get together, they usually provide one of the best-looking hockey games of the year.
They each have classic designs and the two simplest color schemes in the NHL, providing some of the most iconic looks in sports history.
I can't wait to see what each of these two come up with for next year's Winter Classic.
Edmonton road jersey vs. Calgary third jersey
Yes, there will be some repeats in this slideshow, but can you blame me for this one?
Again, Edmonton and Calgary have vintage looks that provide for a throwback-looking game when worn against each other.
Florida home jersey vs. Philadelphia road jersey
Florida is primarily red with a decent amount of dark blue and a slight amount of gold. These colors happen to clash great with Philadelphia's vintage-style orange and white uniforms, as these games provide a good amount of colors and two jerseys with clean, simple templates.
Los Angeles road jersey vs. Columbus home jersey
The Kings' jerseys can look a little dull, but they look great when matched up against the patriotic color scheme of the Columbus Blue Jackets.
It's tough to explain, but red, white and blue just happen to look great against black and silver.
Minnesota home jersey vs. St. Louis road jersey
This is one of the most underrated rivalries in the game, and the jerseys make it even better to watch. At first glance, it looks like a typical red vs. blue matchup—which always looks good, but Minnesota also has a decent amount of green in its uniform to add a unique edge to this uniform clash.
Montreal road jersey vs. Toronto home jersey
Toronto and Montreal create not only one of the best rivalries in hockey history, but one of the best rivalries in the history of sports.
The jerseys play their part in the rivalry too, as Montreal's red and Toronto's blue collide to create games that screams hockey, Canada and the Original Six just by looking at them visually.
Nashville home jersey vs. Detroit road jersey
This is becoming one of the better rivalries in hockey, as Nashville finally knocked off the hated Red Wings in last year's playoffs.
When these two teams play each other, it is obviously extremely clear to tell them apart, as Detroit's brilliant red and white clash with Nashville's Michigan Wolverine-esque colors.
New Jersey road jersey vs. Pittsburgh third jersey
Any team with a good amount of red in its color scheme looks great on the ice against Pittsburgh's two-tone blue throwbacks.
The mix of dark blue with light blue seems to cause the red on the Devils' uniforms to jump out and be very noticeable.
New York Islanders home jersey vs. New Jersey road jersey
The Islanders have some great uniforms, reminiscent of the days where the team brought home four-consecutive Stanley Cups.
Just like the previous slide: The beautiful shade of blue on the Islanders jerseys causes the red on New Jersey's uniforms to jump out, which in turn makes the blue seem even more vibrant.
New York Rangers road jersey vs. Boston Bruins home jersey
New York and Boston have so much history when it comes to sports, and hockey is no exception. These two Original Six rivals are two of the better teams in the Eastern Conference, and they provide for one of the best rivalries in the league.
Boston's black and gold threads clash very well with New York's red, white and blue sweaters, creating contests that are very easy on the eyes.
Ottawa road jersey vs. Pittsburgh home jersey
Both of these jerseys are pretty boring, but they create a decent clash because they have nearly identical templates and clashing colors.
Both teams have a decent amount of black, but Ottawa's subtle amount of red stands out because of Pittsburgh's subtle amount of gold.
Philadelphia home jersey vs. Montreal road jersey
Philadelphia's jerseys create a good-looking clash with most opponents, as the Flyers are the only primarily orange team in the league.
Montreal's beautiful shades of red and blue stand out against the Flyer orange and black, resulting in a great-looking hockey game with a vintage feel.
Phoenix road jersey vs. Vancouver home jersey
The Coyotes have some of the nicer jerseys in the league, as they are very simplistic and have a clean yet unique template.
They look great when worn against the Vancouver Canucks because Vancouver's cool shades of blue and green make Phoenix's dark red hue stand out.
Pittsburgh third jersey vs. Montreal road jersey
These jerseys look beautiful when worn against each other. The dark and light blue of Pittsburgh always make opponents' red hues stand out, but something about Montreal's looks extra special.
Both uniforms also have a throwback feel, which is always a good thing.
San Jose third jersey vs. Detroit road jersey
We saw these uniforms collide four times in the spring of 2011, as the Red Wings and Sharks competed in one of the most exciting playoff series of all time.
This is always a good-looking game because red and teal are basically exact opposites of each other and San Jose's template used for its BlackArmor third jerseys is fairly similar to the template that the Red Wings have used for years.
St. Louis road jersey vs. Chicago home jersey
St. Louis and Chicago have been rivals for a very long time. Now, they are among the Western Conference's better teams and their meetings matter even more.
When the Blues travel to Chicago, the Blackhawks' brilliant red uniforms look great against St. Louis's white and blue duds.
Tampa Bay home jersey vs. Florida road jersey
These in-state rivals always look good while playing one another. Both underwent uniform changes in the summer of 2011 (Tampa Bay's were much more drastic), and now both teams look great on the ice.
Tampa Bay's classic-looking blue uniforms look great against Florida's white uniforms, which have a deep red stripe over the top.
Toronto home jersey vs. Montreal road jersey
I've tried to stay away from repeats, but this one has to be on here twice, being possibly the greatest clash of jerseys in the NHL.
The looks of each of the NHL's two most-storied franchises are only a small part of what makes this rivalry so great.
Vancouver road jersey vs. Boston home jersey
This is currently the biggest inter-conference rivalry in hockey, thanks to the 2011 Stanley Cup Final.
Both of these jerseys have so much color to them. The picture doesn't do justice to Vancouver's beautiful shade of green and how it looks against the black and gold of Boston.
Washington road jersey vs. New York Islanders home jersey
It is very tough to come up with a jersey that clashes well with Washington's home uniforms since there is so much red but also a decent amount of dark blue. Washington's white jersey, however, looks great against several teams.
The Islanders' blue home uniforms clash best with these white Caps jerseys because of how the royal blue and bright orange look against the subtle amount of deep red on Washington's sweaters.
Winnipeg road jersey vs. New Jersey home jersey
When Winnipeg was welcomed back to the NHL, the Jets unveiled some very cool jerseys. Since they are two-tone blue, they look great against all red jerseys, but no jersey looks better against them than the red and black home sweaters of the New Jersey Devils.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – The No. 23 University of Arkansas swimming and diving team (3-1, 2-1 SEC) is set to compete in the Houston Cougar Swimming and Diving Invitational.
"We're really excited about this invite coming up," head coach Sean Schimmel said. "It's close to the championship meet format for the SEC and NCAA Championship and it is one of the few times all year that we get to compete in that format. It's a real focus for our fall and we are certainly looking to be at our best."
The Razorbacks are coming off a successful triple-dual meet, in which Arkansas swept Missouri, Kentucky and Southern Illinois on the road. Prior to the triple-dual meet the Razorbacks faced No. 2 Georgia, where Arkansas suffered its only loss of the season.
The Razorbacks have had many highlights so far this season, starting with redshirt sophomore Shana Lim's school-record breaking swim (54.95) in the 100 backstroke against Georgia in the first dual meet of the season. Freshman Nina Drolc was named the SEC Freshman of the Week for her performance against Missouri, Kentucky and Southern Illinois.
"Some of the teams participating like Texas A&M, LSU, SMU and Wyoming are some of the top teams [in the country]," Schimmel said. "We get in-conference competition and we get some people we will face at SEC's and NCAA's and we can see how we stack up against them. I know that we will rise to the occasion, and I feel like the better the competition you have around you the better you will be."
The invitational will be held at University of Houston Campus Recreation and Wellness Center from Nov. 15-17 and features, No. 4 Texas A&M, No. 19 LSU, Air Force, Houston, Florida Gulf Coast, Fresno State, Idaho, New Mexico State, New Mexico, SMU, Rice, Tulane and Wyoming. On the diving side, the Razorbacks will also face Clemson, Kansas, Nebraska, TCU and UCLA.
"We are looking to be the best that we have been so far," Schimmel said. "The expectations are high to perform well."
A full recap will be available on ArkansasRazorbacks.com after each day of competition. A live blog will also be available for fans to follow along during the meet.

Swiss bank in Wikileaks case abruptly abandons lawsuit
A Swiss bank that successfully sued to yank the Wikileaks.org domain name, and then faced a severe setback in a subsequent court ruling, has given up for now.
Bank Julius Baer filed a brief note with a court in San Francisco Wednesday saying it would voluntarily dismiss its own case, while reserving the right to file it again in the future or pursue it "in an alternate court, jurisdiction, or venue."

The Armada XP sports 2MB of L2 cache, supports 64-bit DDR3 memory interface with ECC at 800MHz clock rate, and "heterogeneous multiprocessing" (SMP/AMP/Mixed) with "hardware-based Cache Coherence." In addition, the SoC features quad x4 PCI Express interfaces, multiple USB ports, Gigabit Ethernet ports, SATA ports, and security features. Just like other ARM-based SoCs from Marvell, it features advanced power management technologies; the developer claims it can achieve 16,600DMIPS at less than 10W.
While it's no surprise that Marvel underlines the Armada XP is the fastest ARM processor available on the market today, ARM-based servers won't be gaining popularity very quickly given that they don't (yet?) support 64-bit capabilities and don't have compatible software for servers. To address the latter, Marvell is already offering a development platform, including software drivers and board support package, in order to get its customers to start system development for the Armada XP even before they get the hardware.
"Marvell's introduction of a powerful solution for enterprise-class cloud computing applications is a very important milestone in the mobile Internet revolutioncloud computing mobile servers like those powered by the ARMADA XP are the key link in what I envision to be a seamless, unified ecosystem of mobile connected devices, information appliances and smart 'furnishings,'" Weili Dai, Marvell's co-founder, said in a statement. "Marvell's leadership in mobility, consumer, storage, enterprise networking and Wi-Fi products completes the circuit, delivering a powerful end-to-end total solution to anyone connected to the new global mesh, from consumers to small business and the enterprise."

Woww, quadcore! Cool! Can't wait to have some of that power on my next cellphone just imagine the future where you could even overclock your cellphones... Yummy !!
Heheheh, an overclocked cell phone! I pushed mine to 1.93 GHz without crashing, although the a full battery charge gets drained in about 35 minutes. LOL
Still, it is cool to see new developments in all directions, mobile, desktop, server, netbooks, and even cell phones.
Wait a sec... the article says:
Marvell has announced a new system-on-chip (SoC) product, the first ARM-based solution designed for servers: the Armada XPNVM, this chip is for server environments. -
Oopss... I relate Arm with low profile electronics... But true... This one's for servers LOL
hehe.....i wonder if we really need quad core procs in our phones now, it not like the bettery side of our phones are improving that much too.

Why would any1 overclock their cell? I wouldn't want to deplete it's battery faster.
ARM lacks too much in the server department to be able to compete. I don't even know why they are putting so much effort there instead of the GMS market where they have a fighting chance. This just looks like a big waste of money from their part.
Sure, thinking ano 2010, overclocking your mobile CPU is totally a waste of battery life... but try to think 10 years ahead, we might even be able to build our own personalized cellphones (like Pcs, choosing between batteries, screens, cases, etc...), and having a solid mobile gaming scenario by then, with 3D and HD titles, someone might think it would be good to have an overclocking App for the hardcore gaming community! wait a minute... did I smoked something today... LOL
These days mobile chips have become more powerfull then my desktop config. :)
These days mobile chips have become more powerfull then my desktop config.
I know, my HTC desire's 1GHz CPU clock speed is only 400MHz slower than my laptops CPU clock speed.... Thats nuts! lol.
I have been looking for low powered procesors to mount a home server, but I dont want an atom for it... will have to keep looking have seen one another VIA, but never an ARM based.
I wonder how this compares in performance with an Intel ship of the same power draw. Four cores at 1.6GHz at 10W sounds nice, but I'm sure the speed per GHz doesn't compare to modern day x86 CPU's (though might be comparable to the Atom).
The arm based processors have always been really good in my opinion. All of my old iPAQs have been arm processors and they always seemed to be the best in the market at the time. A low power quad core arm sounds really good!

A Smithville woman has agreed to serve a six-month probation sentence after pleading guilty to a lesser charge Thursday morning.
Cynthia Redd pleaded guilty to a Class C misdemeanor. She was originally charged with felony engaging in organized criminal activity.
Authorities raided the parlor on Woden Road in July 2010 and issued about 15 citations to patrons. Investigators confiscated about $2,700 in cash. The location was believed to be linked to an Austin-based company involved with other illegal gaming operations.
Redd was charged in the case, along with her daughter and son-in-law.

Worldwide PC processor shipments fell sharply in the fourth quarter of 2008, though Intel's Atom chip bucked the trend, according to new data from IDC.
In the fourth quarter, processor unit shipments declined 17 percent quarter over quarter and 11.4 percent year over year, while market revenue declined 18 percent over the previous quarter and 22.2 percent compared to the year-earlier period to $6.78 billion, IDC said.
"The decline in PC processor unit shipments in the fourth quarter was the worst sequential decline since IDC started tracking processor shipments in 1996," said Shane Rau, … Read more

Postdoctoral scholars [1] (1) hold a doctoral degree or the foreign equivalent. Unlike Visiting Scholars, Postdoctoral Scholars enroll with the UCLA Graduate Division for an approved research and training program under faculty supervision. Postdoctoral scholars normally apply in response to a formal position announcement, though in some cases the postdoctoral position may be established independently with an individual faculty member.
Postdoctoral scholars in the Department of Urban Planning are relatively rare, as they usually require funding from a research project housed at UCLA, and the funding from these projects is most often reserved for UCLA graduate students. Most postoctoral positions in the School of Public Affairs are sponsored by research centers [2], not by academic departments.

All of us need to eat a variety of different coloured fruit and vegies every day – both raw and cooked. The recommended daily amount for kids and teens depends on their age, appetite and activity levels – see table below.
Note: One serve of fruit is 150 grams (equal to 1 medium-sized apple; 2 smaller pieces (e.g. apricots); 1 cup of canned or chopped fruit; ½ cup (125ml) 99% unsweetened fruit juice; or 1½ tablespoons dried fruit). One serve of vegetables is 75 grams (equal to ½ cup cooked vegetables; ½ medium potato; 1 cup of salad vegetables; or ½ cup cooked legumes (dried beans, peas or lentils).
While whole fruit contains some natural sugars that make it taste sweet, it also has lots of vitamins, minerals and fibre, which makes it more filling and nutritious than a glass of fruit juice.
One small glass of juice provides a child's recommended daily amount of vitamin C. Unfortunately, many children regularly drink large amounts of juice and this can contribute to them putting on excess weight.
Eating more fruit and vegies every day can sometimes be a struggle. However, research shows that we're more likely to do so if they're available and ready to eat. Children may need to try new fruits and vegies up to 10 times before they accept them. So stay patient and keep offering them. It can also help to prepare and serve them in different and creative ways.

Olympus OM-D E-M1: Mirrorless Perfection for Serious Photographers
Mirrorless cameras aren't supposed to be this good. Yet, somehow, Olympus has made a compact interchangeable lens camera so marvelous and drool-worthy that I don't even know where to begin. If there's a mirrorless camera that can replace a DSLR, it's probably the OM-D E-M1, the successor to last year's critically acclaimed OM-D EM-5 (don't let the higher number fool you, it's the older model). Despite its small size, the solid E-M1 still manages to pack a serious punch.

User Review and Ratings
$49 Adult Ticket ($6 Savings), $47 Senior, $24 Child
Yes, it's the best tour ever. The tour guides are very friendly and will accommodate any questions. Will take this tour again and your offers are great!
The tour was well arranged and the staff at 'Tower Tours' were helpful. They even arranged a special conveyance from downtown to our hotel when we turned up a bit late for our drop off to the hotel. The driver of the Muirwood bus did a good job as guide also.
Excellent value and entertaining/knowledgeable tour guide/driver.
Just right! Arrangements and all timings were fine. The driver was safe, courteous, knowledgable, articulate, neat and humorous. Thank you.
It was a great experience! Guide.com was polite, helpful, gave me detailed instructions on contacting the tour company directly for confirmation/pickup instructions.
My wife and I enjoyed this tour. Our driver/guide, James, was very knowledgeable and very easy on the ear.
Great tour with a great and entertaining tourguide! Would do it again on a next visit!
Aaron is a real asset to your company. He is a font of information and has a great sense of humor! He made the tour interesting and fun. We liked him so much, we doubled the tip we had planned on giving him. I would recommend your company to anyone who asks!
great tour. tour guide was informative. It's just a long trip from San Fransisco.
We had such a great time on this tour. Excellent value, too. Joe was an outstanding tour guide. I highly recommend this tour.
We were so fortunate to have George as our guide. I was stunned at all his knowledge. And he was SO sweet the whole time. Captivating would be a one worder I would use to describe his tour. Honestly the woods were great, but, in part because he made them great with all the knowledge, history & stories. I would highly recommend this tour. It was SO worth every penny.
The trip to Muir Woods and Sausalito was fantastic. I don't remember the name of the drive who picked us up at the hotel, but he was so nice. For the trip to Muir Woods, Gordon was our driver and he was the BEST!!!! He made the trip fun, interesting and went out of his way to make our experience fun and educational. Muir Woods is truly a national treasure. We would do it again anytime. I will highly recommend this to any of my friends going to San Francisco.
A nice tour for a change from the hustle of San Francisco. Good Tour Guide and it was a beautiful day and the walk through the woods was relaxing.
Our experience was wonderful. The tour driver was great and informative. Thanks for a great tour.
Thoroughly enjoyed our trip, our driver was very personable and knowledgeable. Redwoods, of course, beyond fabulous
5 stars! Jerry was great: knowldegable & enthusiastic!
Very well organized, great bus driver/guide, beautiful sites. I'd recommend this tour.
Try to get John as the tour guide, he is great!
This was a very interesting trip. Great ride with a lot of information. Would recommend this to everyone.
Loved Muir Woods!
Very knowledgeable driver. We had a great time! We had enough time to walk a nice trail. Left the tour at Sausalito and went to the recommended Hamburger. It was pretty good! Ferry back to Fishermanswharf was beautiful also! Definitely recommend!
Great guide and interesting facts
This was THE best thing I did on my visit to San Francisco. The forest itself is unbelieveable, but add to that the vast knowledge of our driver and the door-to-door hotel pick-up service. A great value -- I got more than my money's worth. Thank you!
Great tour! Muir Woods is absolutely breathtaking and Sausalito is a great village on the bay. The stores are wonderful and the views of the bay are spectacular.
We only had 36 hours in San Francisco and took this in conjunction with a City Tour, and thoroughly enjoyed both tours whuch gave us a quick introduction to your lovely city and surrounds. Thoroughly recommend to other vistors.
The tour guide was SO knowledgable and very friendly. He talked the entire ride there and back! I don't remember his name (he had white long hair). Muir woods was beautiful and it was nice to ride through Sausalito. I would suggest having maybe an hour stop in Sausalito to accompany the trip.
We had a great time and our driver Charles (I think) was worth his weight in gold. A great last day in San Francisco.'Sue
Loved it. The Guide, John, was excellent and full of information and so entertaining. The trip to Muir Woods in the mini-bus was super, especially over the Golden Gate Bridge. The time allowed in the park is adequate to do a short walk and admire the wondrously tall Redwoods. We would have liked a little more time, but I guess on a day trip only so much time is allocated. On the drive to Sausalito John was entertaining, but also provided interesting facts and figures. We left the tour there to spend more time in Sausalito and took the ferry back to SF at our leisure. To summarise, yes, its a very good trip to do, to see and hear some of nature, and its so close to the city!
The guide was excellent and the place was wonderfull. Its been a very pleaseant trip.
This tour was worth the money. Woods are wonderful and trip to Sausalito great. We stopped on the Golden Gate for pics too. That was a nice bonus! Highly recommended way to spend an afternoon.
This is my third time to visit Muir Woods and Sausalito. And every time I have the privilege to repeat the experience I get more and more admired. The tour was very well guided by an enthusiastic, educated and well informed person. He went far away to help each of the tourists to their final destination and assisted those willing to return by the Bay Ferry. Sausalito is an experience by itself. It is a dream place located in one that is possible one of the best panoramas in the world. I wouldnt doubt one second to repeat this and more tours with Guide you.com. From Buenos Aires, Argentina
Lots of great background info and fun!
great time, great tour guide!
My husband and I enjoyed the redwood forest a lot. We'd want to do it again when we visit next year year. We told our friends about it and they all want to go with us next time. The tour bus driver was excellent. He was funny and kept us entertained. Over all, it was highlight of our trip in San Francisco.
Great trip and fab guide would recommend.
I had the most wonderful time on this tour! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Our driver was amazing!! I forget his name but he had long hair and is a runner. He was knowledgeable and very entertaining. He even let us have 15 extra minutes in the woods which I was very happy about because seeing the Redwoods was the most exciting part of my whole trip in SF.
Great tour. I picked this tour because they allowed for the most time in the park, 90 minutes.
I was great to be in nature. The tour guide, Richard, was very informative to and from the site. The ride is a little nerve racking with such a big bus on winding roads but it becomes part of the whole experience.
that's great. Recomended
Almost perfect. Perhaps because we spend 1,5 hours in Muir Woods, the "sausalito tour" was very short. 10 minutes is not enough. Nevertheless, doesn't matter. Just the experience of walk across the forest of redwoods pays the trip. Sausalito it's nice, but it's not necesary.
Wonderful experience. The driver who picked us up from the hotel and the driver who drove us to Muir Woods were very good. The tour itself was very informative and enjoyable. thank you
Great experience! Our guide, Harold, provided a lot of really interesting information, and his voice sounds like Garrison Keillor. Such beautiful, majestic, serene redwood trees. The only thing I would change is to give me a little more time with them. 1.25 hours sounded like it would be long enough, but it wasn't!
Totally worth it! I was very impressed with the service and professionalism. Muir woods was amazing! I would highly recommend it to get out of San Francisco for a nice day trip.
Our Muir Woods trip was wonderful. The guide was very knowledgeable about the history of the area. The park was beautiful and we had enough time for a short hike and lunch. We even stopped at the Golden Gate Bridge for pictures. I highly recommend this trip!
The tour was an excellent experience. Although the English. Not speak, we had a lot of fun to the stories and explanations of the tour leader / any driver. On this opportunity to thank you. Fam Mischnik with granddaughter
We enjoyed our tour of Muir Woods and Sausalito Waterfront. Our tour guide made the trip fun with lots of facts about San Francisco and the surrounding area. The game we played on the way back was fun also. The only thing I would change is to have 2 hours in the woods instead of 1 1/2 hours.
We had an excellent time, our driver Mr. Lee was awesome. He was very informative and told stories and pointed out locations from films, celebrity homes, etc. Muir woods and Sausalito were beautiful. This was a good way to see the sites and go places with out having to rent a car and try to drive in San Francisco. Had a great time!
great experience!
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Muir Woods and Sausalito. The pick up was prompt and our driver guide was very informative and friendly. the only ting that would have improved our experience would have been if we had been pricked up from our own hotel (Hotel Drisco on Pacific Avenue).
Excellent tour - the Woods are beautiful - we had plenty of time to look around and tour guide Curly was a great character and very knowledgeable about the area. Recommended.
What a fabulous tour. Our guide was charming, knowledgeable, charasmatic & funny. Muir woods was beautiful. My boyfriend proposed to me during the tour when I stopped & commented on a spectacular site in the woods. I was taken by surprise. It was very romantic. GuiderYou.com was efficient in booking the tour & provided an opportunity for great memories that will not be forgotten. Thank you. Best Wishes, Tina from Philadelphia.
Was a very enjoyable experience visiting the Muir Woods. I would recommend this company as your tour guides! I love Bay City Guides maps...have used them on many occasions.
Great tour of Muir Woods and Sausalito. Out tour guide Doug was extremely knowledgeable and helpful with tips that only a local would know. I wish we could have stayed longer in Muir Woods.
The tour was extremely enjoyable and our tour guide was an absolute blast! He was extremely knowledgeable and made the experience so much fun for us! Thank you for a spectacular San Francisco experience.
Tour Guide was great. Tour was good though i thought there was a stop and wander in Sausalito. Muir Woods was one of the most awe inspiring locations i have ever visited in North America and found myself (after walking around for an hour) just sitting at on a bench and looking at the trees and contemplating life. Hard to explain unless you go yourself. Would recommend this trip, i'd go again and take more time.
Great tour, perfect length of time. Well worth the money.
This tour was wonderful. The driver was well informed, courteous, very personable and a safe driver. The coach was spacious and comfortable. The drive to Muir Woods and back through Sausalito was beautiful, but the giant redwoods themselves were breathtaking and the national park was well designed and maintained with many opportunities to sit and rest on the trail, a nice cafe and gift shop and clean restrooms. A wonderful trip that I will never forget! Thank you. Rebecca Craig, Florida
Tour was very nice. Enjoyed Muir woods & the guide was very nice & well informed.
Hi !! My daughter [20 yrs] and I LOVED this tour and our guide was EXCELLENT!! He was very well-informed and very funny, making the trip there and back go quickly. The trip is also a "quick" one if you only have a short day. Definitely spend extra time in Sausalito and take the ferry back!!
I love this tour and the tour guide who is very entertaining yet knowledgeable to inform tourists about the places we are going. Muirs Wood, Sausalito. History, some interesting stories. Nature, plants. The only drawback is limited time. Can't possibly walk all the bridges within one hour and 10min in Muirs Wood. Probably more time. The same with sausalito. Noon time is lunch time, so you have to eat which will take almost 45mins then time is up to go. No chance to go shopping. I wonder whether there will be tour to Mt Tamp? Would like to go with tour too.
Tyrone (sp?) was the BEST tour guide we had while we were in the US! This was a good few hours in Muir Woods and Sausalito.
Really fun! Tour infor informative and funny. Another 30 minutes at Muir Woods would have ben helpful. Stop in Sausalito and take the ferry back. It's a gorgeous ride.
miur woods was great! loved sausilto. The tour guide was fun and informative. this is my favourite picture of the Muir woods.
Muir woods is unbelievable, I knew I would be amazed but yet it managed to exceed my wildest expectations. The tour itself was very good, we got a very knowledgable and entertaining tour guide. Will definitely repeat the next time I'm in San Francisco.
We appreciated the on time pickup and drop off times of our tour as the location was very near our cruise ship and pier. The driver was very knowledgeable of Muir Woods and Sausalito.
Muir Woods is an impressive sight with Redwood trees standing as tall as 200ft. Nice and relaxing tree 'talk walk', with plenty of picture taking. We did the tour which provided us more than enough time to walk the main trail. The kids enjoyed the trip and the trail walk/talk as well.
The guide was really informative. Thanks.
Excellent trip!!
Fantastic tour. The woods are spectacular. Driver/tour guide was brilliant (sorry can't remember his name)
This was a nice way to see Muir Woods. Some folks think an hour and 15 minutes is too short, but I felt it was fine. The pick up at the hotel was on time and convenient. The pick up driver gave us a "tour" of the route to the Beach St HQ. It gave me good ideas for dinner and places for coffee. The check-in was efficient and we were on our way with a nice driver/ride guide (Lynn) in a clean comfortable small bus. He had interesting info on the creation of the park and the land around it. He stopped at the Fort for pictures of the bridge on the way back. Because the Muir Woods doesn't have a lot of information on the trees and no rangers unless you're lucky to see them, I would have liked more information on the biology of the trees, but I also like the Science Channel.
Wonderful and affordable tour experience. Our driver for the tour, was also the one who came to the hotel and picked us up. He was fantastic. He joked with us and provided us with very interesting information about the local area the whole time we traveled to and from Muir Woods. Not to mention he didn't race through the curvy mountain roads like some of the other buses we saw going to and from Muir Woods. My gf and I left the tour at Sausalito to take the Blue & Gold Ferry back to SF. I highly recommend this tour for everyone visiting the SF Bay area.
The tour was fantastic despite the poor weather San Fran was experiencing that week. While I wish we had more time to roam the Muir Woods, everything was timely and the woods themselves are gorgeous. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting San Fran.
We enjoyed the tour very much. The drivers were courteous and interesting. It was described as 3.5 hours, and we were on buses from 1pm to 7pm (to and from Union Square). Traffic does slow down the travel.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamThe free hotel pickup and drop off does add some transit time to the front end and backend of the 3.5 hour tour but most guests find this preferable to the expense of a taxi.
We had a great time on the tour; Muir Woods are beautiful and it is now my ambition to move to Sausalito one day! Particular praise should go to our tour guide for the day who was absolutely fantastic and really made the day with his charm, wit and outstanding knowledge.
Redwoods were impressive,walking trail exceptional...but short
We had a lovely time, thanks. And particularly appreciated being left alone in the woods, with plenty of time just to wander. Decent bus. Good guide. Thanks.
Guide-driver was knowledgeable of his business. Excellent tour!
Muir Woods was awesome.
Super experience, as the redwoods are simply stunning. A couple of minor annoyances stopped this being a 5 star experience, however: - we were seated right at the front of the small bus, and were under the speaker and the audio commentary (though entertaining) was DEAFENINGLY LOUD. Seriously, it felt like our ears were ringing when we disembarked. We asked the driver to wind it back a bit but he seemed reluctant to turn it down too far for risk of not being heard in the back - the ferry back is surprisingly costly at $9.75 and you're supposed to be able to have the option of a return trip by ferry (at a reduced rate) - this was not available for us Sausalito is a bit touristy and boring/noveau riche, but the ferry ride back is pretty cool.
Suggest to increase time up to at least two hours for this park as 1,5 makes you to be in big hurry in order to have close watch and make fotoes. It was really good tour!
A really worthwhile tour with appropriate and informative commentary. To provide a more exploratory journey into the forest perhaps an extra hour could be written into the tour schedule but still have time for a drive through of Sausalito. Definitely recommend this tour.
A great tour of the woods!! Our driver was so nice and very knowlegeable. Although we only spent about a 1/2 hour in Sausalito, after the driver explained to us why, I understood. Would use Guide You tours again. Thanks for the service of picking us up and dropping us off at our hotel.
The guide was good. I enjoyed the tour , just a little dispointed in that by the way it was written I along with others thought we would stop in Sausalito for a little while as opposed to it just being a drive thru and drop off point.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamThanks for your review. After much customer feedback the tour was altered this year so guests had more time in Muir Woods. The option to return by ferry is intended to allow for more time in Sausalito.
Muir Woods was really great our driver was funny albeit a bit corny but funny and poetic the only quibble i have is that as i wasn't able to stop in Sausalito to catch the ferry back due to the fact i was leaving that night is that perhaps at least we could have made a stop not for just the ferry goers but a chance for souvenirs and a few quick pictures of the beautiful views.
I feel that this was a bit rushed. We were practically speed walking to try to get to the bus on time. The same with Sausalito. If you want to do this, try a longer time frame so that you are not speed walking the whole entire time and so that you actually get to enjoy your time. Both places were very nice. The routes were scenic. The guide was nice, funny, and took us to an amazing spot where we were able to take an awesome picture with the Golden Gate bridge.
Our driver Curly was excellent with info and quite humorous - did a great job! I had plenty of time to see what I wanted, and the optional ferry back to the Wharf was perfect!
Loved the tour! Think I learned more about redwoods and Sausalito than I had learned from living in Marin County for 5 years in the 60's. Highly recommend this tour-great picture opportunity.
The tour was good-- it was a minibus, which was much nicer than a large tour bus, and the tourguide engaging and full of facts (even though he was fairly new and the facts seemed more disjointed and memorized than knowledge) The tour left barely enough time to enjoy Muir Woods or Sausalito- I recommend staying in Sausalito longer and taking a ferry back. It's a quick overview, but not a real discovery. Also, the pick-up from hotels to then wait in line at the tour office again was a bit of a pain.
We enjoyed our trip very much. Our guide, Rich?, was very informative and cordial. I would have liked another 1/2 hr. at Muir Woods. Sausalito was kind of boring. We drove around, had a small lunch, and saw some homes. Other than taking a great picture of the Golden Gate Bridge, I'm not so sure I would say it was worth the $$$.
Great experience however the time in Sausalito was too short. I loved walking through the woods and looking at the giant red wood trees. I would have loved to spend more time exploring Sausalito, I felt the time there was too short. Despite the short time in Sausalito, I enjoyed the tour and would recommend it to others.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamHi Nadia, Thank you for offering this feedback. Guests who wish to explore Sausalito for an extended time should consider taking the ferry back.
This was an awesome tour of Muir Woods. The redwoods themselves were awe-inspiring in many ways, while exploring Sausalito was a fun, short experience. Our tour guide himself was literally the best guide I have ever had on a trip. Charles Hightower cannot be recommended highly enough, both as a very knowledgeable guide on the tour areas, but also as an extremely, personable, warm and hilarious guy. We were both smiling and laughing throughout our entire ride experience. Thanks for a great tour.
Our Driver was the best and very, very knowledgeable!
great tour next time need more time would like a hop on hop off bus to much to see and just not enough time.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamThe Muir Woods Tour/Sausalito tour allows guests to take in the Park highlights. GuideYou also offers a Muir Woods/Wine Tour with extended time in the woods.
We had a wonderful time on this tour. It was the highlight of our time in San Francisco. I would advise everyone to squeeze this into your itenerary. We had a wonderful tour guide and outstanding trip. Muir Woods is just spectacular and the quaint town of Sausalito is just peaceful. Highly recommended!!!
August 4 2011 i turned 21 when to live it up in San Francscio ..I loved the tour i took i had never been anywhere and to have experinced things the way i did when i was there, i would love to go back and take a few more tours. it was fast and fun and there was plenty of room in the tour bus. the driver was super friendly and informative about where we were going and what we would be doing. At the muir woods i had a great time seeing these huge trees i have never seen befor and for me working in the field of trees it was a great experience im really glad i took this tour i would recomend it and have recommend for people to do when they head up to San Francisco the seniery was awsome i almost didnt want to leave but i knew we were going to head to another awsome place and we did we went to Sausalito which was nice but im out doors kind of girl so it was alright.. over all i had a GREAT TIME and would love to go back some day when i can save up some more cash :) HAVE FUN EVERYONE
Enjoyed the tour but the temperature on the bus was quite uncomfortable, very warm. The driver was fabulous, George, he did a great job.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamKathryn, Thanks for your feedback. The drivers will usually adjust the temperature if a guest asks.
Super! Tour was great!
The scenery at Muir Woods was quite a site to see. I think it would be favorable to share the weather conditions. While I was dressed comfortably in polar fleece, many others were under dressed and very cold. Can a blurb be added to the tour description? However, I wished we had more time to walk around and had seen more of Sausalito. I felt like we just didn't have enough time there. Our tour guide was okay. He seemed to have a chip on his shoulder about something. He shared a story about knowing Robin Williams when they were younger. I don't know if it was his intent or not, but he sounded bitter when he told the story.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamAnita, Thanks for reminding visitors to bring a jacket. We recommend dressing in layers - the SF Bay Area is known for its "climatic diversity".
I was to be collected at my hotel 1pm on the day of the tour. I sat in the lobby till 1.20pm until i received a call from my son to say that the bus had called for me but that i had missed it. The only way that i can explain this was that i was on my way down from my room when they called at the hotel, all i can say is that they did not wait very long or try very hard to locate me. I told the porter when i came down that i was waiting to be collected and he did not mention anyone looking for me.Because of this i then had to get a cab which cost me $12 on top of what i paid for the tour.However the tour itself was very enjoyable and the driver/guide was excellent. He gave us plenty of information and history about Muir Woods and Sausalito . Apart from the mishap at the beginning of the tour i would book a trip with the company when i hopefully return to San Francisco next year. Regards Anne O'ConnorResponse from the GuideYou.com TeamAnne, Sorry to hear your pick up didn't go smoothly. Fortunately this doesn't happen frequently. But despite the mishap it sounds like you really enjoyed the tour. If you are waiting longer than a few minutes past your designated pick up time, we recommend that you call the tour operator. The bus is usually still in the area and can swing back by to pick up guests.
The trips to Muir Woods, Giant Redwoods and Sausalito Tour was very good. The tour guide was funny and informative. The trip was comfortable and safe, as well. Learned a lot that we would not have known if we had not gone on the tour. Good experience.
We had a wonderful tour and a fantastic tour guide who shared a lot of history of the area for us. The driver did a great job, especially around all the bicyclists. Thanks for a great time.
The tour was excellent, well worth the money. Our guide Silvio was the best - very knowledgeable and incredibly entertaining. We would do it again!
Enjoyed our tour but was very disappointed in that our time was cut so short in Sausalito... didn't even have time to explore... Too bad as that was what I was really looking forward to.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamLee, Your feedback is valuable. For more time in Sausalito guests should consider taking the ferry back to San Francisco. Not only is there more time for exploring the town (which really is charming) but the ferry ride is relaxing and scenic as well.
Enjoyed the Muir Woods tour, but not enough time in Sausalito.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamDavid, Thanks for your feedback. Taking the ferry back from Sausalito (rather than the bus) is a great option as this allows guests more time on their own for shopping, dining and picture taking.
Second time we have taken the Muir Woods tour. Always a great experience.
Our Tour Guide way Tyrel, (sorry if I spelled your name wrong!) and he was wonderful! Gave us great information on the bus ride, and did a good job of keeping things fun with his stories. He did a fabulous job! Would definitely recommend this tour to others!
The tour guide Lee was great, the bus was clean and the seats comfortable,,,but the length of time spent in Muir Woods was simply to short. I would recommend that part of the trip be at least 3 hours. charge more for it and it would be worth it.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamGlad you enjoyed the tour. Muir Woods is a spectacular National Monument with over 500 acres of forest. The Muir Woods portion of this tour is intended to cover the basic highlights. However we do offer other Muir Woods tours which allow for more time to explore the giant redwoods.
Thought the tour was great and our tour guide was not only knowledgeable but entertaining. Muir woods was beautiful and the trails were just the right length for us. Sausalito was so nice we opted to take the ferry back instead of the bus so that we could enjoy a relaxing diner overlooking the water.
The Muir Woods and Sausalito Tour was excellent, tour guide knowledgeable and he allowed time at various stops for camera shots.
The tour was really informative ! got to See alot, and had a wonderful time, the tour instructor was very nice, knew alot, and had a good radio voice. I would definitely go on another tour with this company. The price is reasonable.
Thank you for the wonderful tour of the woods, and the great tour guide. Sausalito was only so-so. Consider dropping the Sausalito part! Thanks, and Happy 2012, John and Mika
Very helpful and informative driver who provided a useful commentary and supportive service throughout. Muir Woods fantastic, Sausalito a bit of a waste of time.
The woods are lovely, a little longer would be good, but thoroughly enjoyed! The burger bar in Sausalito was top notch!
It was good, BUT I thihk that the guide must go with the group inside the park giving explanations, and not send them alone.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamThanks for your feedback. Private tour guides are only allowed up to the entrance of the park. This is to ensure that multiple tour guides are not talking over each other and disrupting the peaceful enjoyment of all guests. However once inside the park there is a visitors center are rangers available to answer questions.
This was such a great tour. Definitely worth the money. The tour guide was funny and knowledgeable as well as a good driver. I only wish the tour lasted longer!
It was great Pick up from Hotel on time and great commentary delivered by guide during tour. Perhaps another half an hour in Sausalito before returning,we discovered that we had missed half the town as it was around the bend in the road and not visible until driving out back to Frisco. All in all, a great tour that was mainly "FOG free"and my wife and I had a fantastic day. Brian and Elonora Barrett, Sancrox, NSW Australia.
Very informative tour. Mr. Hightower was extremely knowledgeable and made it a lot of fun. Comfortable ride and beautiful scenery. Thanks for a rewarding vacation.
The guide was terrible. He had a strong Texan accent (hard to understand). He only talked about his life (how depress he was when his wife died, how good his family meeting was, etc) and didn't talk about Muir or Sausalito!
Our tour was wonderful! From the driver who picked us up at our hotel to the tour bus driver/guide, everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. We were celebrating our 40th anniversary the day we went and it truly was a great, memorable day!
Muir wood is amazingly beautiful, we are so glad we took the tour. Our tour guide was a blast, very professional and also very entertaining, we had a really fun day.
The trip was well worth it. It was interesting and the guide was knowledgable and accomodating. I would definitely recommend this trip. The only thing I would change is to maybe make it little longer. An hour went by very quickly at Muir Woods.
Really great day out and an excellent and informative tour guide but we could have done with 1/2 an hour longer in the woods and Sausalito should have been at least 2 - 3 hours long
It was a great trip, but the time in Muir Woods was a little too short. There was no "tour" of Sausalito as such. Basically we were shown where to go to the toilet and where to meet the bus.Response from the GuideYou.com TeamThanks for your feedback. Sausalito is a small town and the stop there is for personal time to shop and take some pictures of the views. Some guests prefer stay longer in Sausalito and taking the ferry back to SF is a great option to extend the visit.
Excelllent tour with great driver/guide. We really enjoyed this. thank you.
The process of ordering tickets and checking in was smooth and simple. Our guide was very good, knowledgeable, and interesting to listen to. my only regret is the amount of time we had in muir woods. I would have liked much longer than an hour. Billi Chapman
We had a great trip to the Muir Woods and Sausalito. Our tour guide Tyrell, or T as we called him was a great tour guide! He was so entertaining and knew so many things about the area. We are from Alberta, Canada. Below is a picture of "T" skipping rope just before our trip. He was great and I would highly recommend him and the Guideyou tour to anybody who was interested in doing a tour of the Muir Woods and Sausalito. Great experience!!

The Manhattan woman who says she was raped by a police officer will take the stand.
Kenneth Moreno, 41, and Franklin Mata, 27, are charged in connection with the alleged rape in the woman's East Village apartment in December 2008.
Prosecutors say Moreno raped her while Mata acted as a lookout.
Last week, jurors were shown a surveillance video in which Moreno and Mata are seen escorting the alleged victim into her apartment building.
Prosecutors contend the woman was too drunk to consent to sex.
The defense says she was inebriated but not incapacitated.

Feel-Good GreensDark-green leafy vegetables like spinach, asparagus and Brussels sprouts are all off the charts in folate, a B vitamin that may help reduce symptoms of depression. Folate is needed in the brain for the synthesis of mood chemicals like norepinephrine, serotonin and dopamine. Boosting the folate levels of depressed patients helped improve their mood, found researchers from Harvard Medical School.

3 Buy-Rated Dividend Stocks: ETR, MO, E
TheStreet Ratings' stock model projects a stock's total return potential over a 12-month period including both price appreciation and dividends. Our Buy, Hold or Sell ratings designate how we expect these stocks to perform against a general benchmark of the equities market and interest rates.
While plenty of high-yield opportunities exist, investors must always consider the safety of their dividend and the total return potential of their investment. It is not uncommon for a struggling company to suspend high-yielding dividends and subsequently result in precipitous share price declines.
TheStreet Ratings' stock rating model views dividends favorably, but not so much that other factors are disregarded. Our model gauges the relationship between risk and reward in several ways, including: the pricing drawdown as compared to potential profit volatility, i.e. how much one is willing to risk in order to earn profits?; the level of acceptable volatility for highly performing stocks; the current valuation as compared to projected earnings growth; and the financial strength of the underlying company as compared to its stock's valuation as compared to its stock's performance.
These and many more derived observations are then combined, ranked, weighted, and scenario-tested to create a more complete analysis. The result is a systematic and disciplined method of selecting stocks. As always, stock ratings should not be treated as gospel — rather, use them as a starting point for your own research.
The following pages contain our analysis of 3 stocks with substantial yields, that ultimately, we have rated "Buy."
Dividend Yield: 4.70%Entergy (NYSE:ETR) shares currently have a dividend yield of 4.70%. Entergy Corporation, together with its subsidiaries, engages in the electric power production and retail electric distribution operations in the United States. The company generates electricity through various sources, such as gas/oil, nuclear, coal, and hydro power. The company has a P/E ratio of 10.94.The average volume for Entergy has been 1,415,700 shares per day over the past 30 days. Entergy has a market cap of $12.7 billion and is part of the utilities industry. Shares are up 11.9% year to date as of the close of trading on Friday.TheStreet Ratings rates Entergy as a buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its compelling growth in net income, revenue growth, notable return on equity, impressive record of earnings per share growth and increase in stock price during the past year. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had generally high debt management risk by most measures that we evaluated.Highlights from the ratings report include:- The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Electric Utilities industry. The net income increased by 213.8% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$146.74 million to $166.98 million.
- Despite its growing revenue, the company underperformed as compared with the industry average of 18.1%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 9.4%. Growth in the company's revenue appears to have helped boost the earnings per share.
- ENTERGY CORP reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. But, we feel it is poised for EPS growth in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, ENTERGY CORP reported lower earnings of $4.75 versus $7.54 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($4.97 versus $4.75).
- The return on equity has improved slightly when compared to the same quarter one year prior. This can be construed as a modest strength in the organization. Compared to other companies in the Electric Utilities industry and the overall market on the basis of return on equity, ENTERGY CORP has outperformed in comparison with the industry average, but has underperformed when compared to that of the S&P 500.
- In its most recent trading session, ETR has closed at a price level that was not very different from its closing price of one year earlier. This is probably due to its weak earnings growth as well as other mixed factors. Turning our attention to the future direction of the stock, it goes without saying that even the best stocks can fall in an overall down market. However, in any other environment, this stock still has good upside potential despite the fact that it has already risen in the past year.

She says the following juicy reads are the books that Goodreads members are giving the highest ratings and sharing the most on Facebook:

Bared to You, by Sylvia Day: Originally self-published in April of 2012, Bared to You was recently picked up by Penguin's Berkley Books and is one of the top rated books from Goodreads users on Facebook in 2012. "This erotic romance about a wealthy man and his young paramour is enjoying mainstream success, piggybacking on the 50 Shades of Grey juggernaut," says Donaghy, who adds that Goodreads members are gushing about the book, calling it "addictive" and "intense."
2. The Marriage Bargain, by Jennifer Probst: The first in the "Marriage to a Billionaire" series, this book tells the story of a "marriage of convenience that becomes something more." Steamy!

"Both of these veteran romance authors specialize in writing about strong women for whom love doesn't always come easy," says Amazon.com Book Editor Chris Schleup. "Whether you're at the beach or reading long after bedtime, they'll keep you turning the pages."

A company's approach to intellectual property is a clear reflection of its focus on research and innovation. A patent by its nature is granted only for some technical concept that is both new and inventive.
If this technical concept is already in the public domain, no patent will be granted. Hence, a sizeable patent portfolio is clear evidence of a strong focus on research and innovation.
Patents typically originate in one of two ways: a normal extension of work or a radically new product. In the first instance, you have an existing product that may not contain patented technology but you figure out a new and novel product extension.
This patent is often used for "defensive purposes" which means that nobody can leverage the new and novel technical element that you added to the product.
An example of this type of invention is the "Surf Locking" product function. Some customers of the Irdeto conditional access system discovered that some subscribers used to share a single smart card between multiple set top boxes. Irdeto has obtained a patent for a feature in its Conditional Access System that counters this practice.
The other and more compelling type of patent is based on doing something that has never been done before. These patents are the result of extensive time and research to identify a whole new class of products or solutions. Hence, these patents are typically the result of a sizable investment in research. As such new ideas and inventions inherently have a great deal of technical and market uncertainty, it is critical that other companies cannot use the results of the creative technical research and development work.
Researchers come up with really innovative things but if they don't solve a customer's business challenge or there is no commercial value for the invention then it simply remains a very good idea. When such innovative technologies are submitted as a patent, the patent office will only evaluate the patent applications to determine if they are new and inventive. This is an effective external vetting mechanism to verify the innovation capabilities of a company. However, as many ideas get patented but are never commercially deployed (made into products that people want and buy) patents by itself are not a sufficient measure of the innovative strength of a technology company.
At Irdeto we add an additional vetting process before we pursue a patent. We ask "Does it solve a customer's business challenges today or a business challenge in the foreseeable future? By doing this, we not only know that it is new and inventive but, that it also has commercial value. We also measure our patent grant verses patent submission ratio (the number of patents submitted vs. the number granted). We feel these two additional layers have contributed to Irdeto's solid track record of industry firsts including: the first commercial use of smart cards, the first IPTV deployment in North America and the world's first mobile pay TV CA deployed in South Korea to name a few.
A good idea whose time has not arrived: Irdeto's watermarking solution. Eleven years ago, an Irdeto engineer came up with a new and innovative way of doing something but could not figure out how to turn this great idea into a product that had commercially value. Then some years later, two fairly unrelated events happened providing the missing piece to the watermarking puzzle. At this very exciting moment, the idea was conceived and applied resulting in the perfect blend of research, innovation, engineering and marketing.
The outcome: Irdeto awarded multiple patents for the Industry's First Interoperable Watermarking technology for set-top-boxes.
