I saw charity getting out of a DVD rental place and immediately struck up a conversation. She was looking for something to entertain her and I suggested myself. She was not too receptive at first but when I mentioned I would pay her 400 dollars for her time, she became real interested. She hopped into my car and we made our way over to my hotel room. She whipped out my cock and let me know she knew exactly what I was getting at and since it had been two months since her last sexual encounter with her ex-boyfriend, she was ready to really let loose.

While some investors were standing on the sidelines during the market rally, Alan Lancz was busy buying, with a one-word explanation: Valuation. (Part Two)
Technology is one of the most attractive sectors in the stock market presently, offering high-quality names at greatly reduced prices, tech investor Ben Rogoff from Polar Capital Partners said Friday.
Stocks eked out a gain Tuesday as the massive amount of stimulus being thrown at the economy has started to lift the mood on Wall Street. The Dow and S&P extended their winning streaks for a third day, though the Nasdaq slipped amid a selloff in big-name techs.
Technology stocks led the market lower as a morning rally inspired by the Federal Reserve plan to support consumer lending fizzled.
With 105 out of the S&P 500 stocks trading under $10 per share, compared to only 59 out of 500 back in October 1987, is this a clear sign of a value trading opportunity of a lifetime or a value trap?
In the midst of the financial crisis Netflix is busy transforming itself from a DVD-by-mail company to a true online content distribution service.
The rules for investing in technology have changed as much as the markets themselves. Weiss Capital's Mike Burnick and Fort Pitt Capital's Kim Caughey offered CNBC their tech stock picks — and pans. (Part Two)
Here we go again -- another market day that feels more like the latest heart-stopping roller coaster, starting off with a big rally at the opening following Cramer fave Hewlett-Packard's great quarterly numbers. But mid-day, the market drops like a rock, down 372. Finally, in the last hour of trading, we get another "jacked-up happy ending." How are you supposed to be a calm and cool investor in times like these? Well, last night, Cramer talked about how good things can still happen in tough circumstances: namely, his number one Wall-of-Shamer, Jerry Yang, announced he was stepping down as Yahoo CEO, where "he's been like a value wrecking ball."
Today was a triumph of the technicals over the technological. Today was a day we touched the Dow 8,000 level -- down 20% from where Cramer last said to sell. When you hit that level, you catch buys. If you're using Cramer's strategy of buying stocks with bountiful dividends like CAT at 4.5% or Nucor at 4%, you caught a great price earlier in the day. Now you should be done buying and, as the high-yielders rally, it's time to start the selling. You can't buy again until the stock takes out your last low price and the yield's even bigger. That's the only strategy that's worked consistently in this crazy market -- stocks that bounce most have the biggest yields.

I've searched and searched but cannot find an image of a tradescantia matching my plant. Help me name that plant!
No I don't think that's what it is. I think it's likelier a Goldfish plant or some other Gesneriad, try an image search for Nematanthus or Columnea.
Your plant is a Gesneriad, but it's Aeschyanthus. It might be A. marmoratus/Basket Vine. Synonym..A. zebrinus.
I have one, but its lost variegation.

The community of Henderson has been on high alert in recent days after an unknown man was spotted taking pictures of young children at bus stops and outside daycare centers. The man is described as being middle-aged with a receding hairline and glasses, and he is reportedly driving a black Dodge Charger with tinted windows. A vehicle matching that description with a man taking pictures has also apparently been seen outside homes in Belle Plaine. Henderson police have adjusted their patrols to have a greater presence when children are most present in the community, and have sent out letters to parents with tips on keeping kids safe. Anyone who witnesses suspicious activity in the Henderson area, or who spots a man in a black Dodge Charger taking pictures, should contact Henderson Police at (507)248-3591.

Cole looking to avoid sophomore slump for Pirates |
Written by Admin |
Wednesday, 26 March 2014 10:09 |
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) - A.J. Burnett may be gone to Philadelphia, but the Pittsburgh Pirates believe they have their next ace in Gerrit Cole. The former No. 1 pick was spectacular at times during his rookie season in 2013, winning 10 games and getting better as the year wore on. The 23-year-old struck out 100 in 117 innings and went 6-2 over his final eight starts. Cole pitched so well the Pirates opted to start him over Burnett in Game 5 of the NL division series against St. Louis. Pittsburgh loss but Cole hung tough in defeat. Manager Clint Hurdle called Cole ''special'' and credited Cole's competitiveness for making him so effective at such a young age. |

[IMAGE]BombardierDeutscheBahnFull.jpg[/IMAGE] Bombardier Transportation and Deutsche Bahn (DB) have signed a framework agreement for 800 double-deck coaches with a total volume of up to $2.1 billion.
With the new generation of vehicles, Deutsche Bahn will actively compete for tenders in the local rail transport market in 2009.
Since the Rail Reform in 1994, the year of the German railway reform in which Deutsche Bahn AG was founded, DB has purchased more than 1,600 double-deck coaches. DB Regio currently has more than 2,000 double-deck coaches in its fleet.
Standard equipment in the coaches includes power outlets at the seats, first- and second-class seating areas, ergonomic seats and customer information systems.
The 68-year old streetcar was acquired as part of a trade with United Transportation Corporation (UTC)/Rail Air Sources (RAS) in exchange for two Siemens U-2 light rail vehicles that were phased out of the MTS fleet.
HART's property acquisitions range in price from $22,304 to about $6 million. In June, HART said that it has to acquire 213 properties for the project, and that it had an acquisition budget of $222 million.
The new production facility will serve the Brazilian market and, in a near future, the Latin America region where a number of new tramway projects are emerging. When fully operational, the facility will employ around 150 people.
The first phase of the effort calls upon local law enforcement agencies to show a greater presence at grade crossings, issue citations to drivers that violate rules of the road at crossings and consider rapid implementation of best practices for grade crossing safety.
The first phase of the plan would construct a four-mile section elevated guideway above a section of abandoned railroad tracks. The first section of the elevated railway could connect Clemson University's International Center for Automotive Research campus with downtown Greenville.

Egypt's Mubarak moved to prison from army hospital - MENA
REUTERS - Egypt's ousted president Hosni Mubarak was taken back to prison from an army hospital on Thursday after appearing fitter at his aborted retrial on charges of complicity in the killings of protesters in 2011.
Hundreds of his supporters blocked the road in front of the hospital late on Wednesday, delaying the transfer, the MENA state news agency said.
"We love you Mubarak" and "Down, down with the rule of the Muslim Brotherhood," chanted the protesters, referring to new President Mohamed Mursi's group.
The retrial of Mubarak will start again on May 11, a Cairo appeals court said on Wednesday. A first attempt collapsed on Saturday when the presiding judge withdrew from the case and referred it to another court.
Judge Mustafa Hassan Abdullah had been widely criticised for acquitting security men accused of attacking protesters in an incident in which crowds were charged at by men riding camels during the 2011 uprising which overthrew Mubarak.
The new presiding judge will be Mahmoud Kamel El-Rashidi, a low-profile jurist.
Many Egyptians were angered when the 84-year-old Mubarak, who was seriously ill last year, appeared in good health, smiling and waving to the public in court on Saturday, and there were calls for him to be sent back to jail.
The prison hospital is fully able to deal with Mubarak's health, the interior minister said in a statement carried by MENA later on Thursday.
Mohamed Ibrahim said that in the event of an "urgent health crises", the former president would be transferred immediately to a hospital outside the prison in accordance with prison regulations.
The prosecutor general's office said it had decided Mubarak would be returned to Torah prison on the outskirts of Cairo. Mubarak was taken by car from the Maadi Military Hospital to the prison in a heavily guarded police convoy early on Thursday, MENA reported.

text: Horses > General > Enjoying Your Horse > Olympic Spotlight: Sue Blinks and Flim Flam Olympic Spotlight: Sue Blinks and Flim Flam Horses Written by: Ann Compton Published: November 24, 2014 Share This Article Print Ask U.S. Olympic Dressage Team rider Sue Blinks to recall her favorite moment with horses and she won't mention the Olympics, or being part of the first U.S. team to win a Nations Cup, or first place in the Grand Prix."It's the night before the horses' day off when the barn is quiet. The horses are all tucked in comfy and satisfied, the work is all done, and the only sound you hear is bran mash slurping. That's a high you can relive every week and my favorite time," she says.If that sets the 44-year-old Blinks a shade apart from her contemporaries, it's not surprising. It's that kind of horsemanship that landed her a berth on this year's Dressage team with her 11-year-old Hanoverian gelding, Flim Flam. She and her mount probably are the best bet for a U.S. Olympic medal.Sue has trained all her own mounts, with help from some top dressage pros. She strongly believes in a customized training program for each animal based on his or her capability, rather than age."I try to listen to each horse, rather than setting a schedule according to what the last horse did or what people think the horse should be doing," she says.Accurately reading where the horse is physically and mentally is an important part of being a good trainer, Blinks notes. "For example, although Flim Flam is a very gifted horse, he was slow to mature physically. I had to resist a lot of pressure to do things faster with him than I thought was right."Sue's Love for Each HorseOlympic teammate Robert Dover observes, "Sue's strongest point is her love for the horse. That shows in her riding. She also has a very large capacity to stick with the job and persevere."Dressage expert and friend Jane Savoie describes Sue as "driven," and recounts a story that illustrates her dedication."A few years ago, Sue wanted me to come look at one of her horses and we set a time like 5:45 a.m., not realizing it would still be dark outside. But when I arrived, Sue was already on the horse, in the arena, in the dark. I had to park my truck so the headlights shone into the arena to see what was happening!"So after Sue and Flim Flam march down Center Line in Sydney after being put through their paces, look for Sue back in the barn where she likes it best – with her horses.

First time here but not the last. This was a great choice. Next time will be summer so we can use the pool.

My husband and I chose the TouVelle House for a brief visit to Jacksonville at the suggestion of a friend. Based on the photos, we knew it would be a unique experience, but we had no idea how much we'd fall in love with the place. The first night there, we happened to be the only guests in the house, so we spent the evening by the fireplace pretending this Arts & Crafts gem belonged to us. Even without the the luxurious sheets, the beautiful furnishings in the room, and the view from our little balcony, just being in this well cared-for, period-detail home would have been worth the cost. If we'd woken up to a breakfast of Cheerios, we would have been happy, but instead, a gourmet breakfast awaited us. Jamie was a pleasant host, who made us feel well cared for and our every need was anticipated. Do yourself a favor and stay here, even if you have no other reason to be in the area.

My husband & I were in Jacksonville for family reunion of sorts and someone had suggested the TouVelle House. Our two-night stay was perfect. The house was gorgeous and offers a wonderful opportunity to "live" in a gorgeous Craftsman home with period furniture. The first night we were there, we were the only people in the house and we sat by living room fire all evening chatting and nearly believing the house was ours. We stayed in the Frank TouVelle room, which is beautifully appointed and cozy. (Two nights on the sheets alone was worth the price.) Our every need was anticipated--from toiletries, to a little box of "things you might have forgotten" in the closet, to hooks for towels and robes in all the most convenient places. And this is to say nothing of the delicious breakfast and good company with Jamie, the innkeeper, who was a delight. Our second morning we were leaving early and couldn't stay for the proper breakfast, so she had to-go bags prepared for us with an array of items for our road trip home. We hope to return to the TouVelle House. I've never felt so well cared for.

Absolutely wonderful experience. A short getaway was just what we needed, and we could not have picked a better place to enjoy it. We stayed in the spacious Frank TouVelle room overlooking the front grounds and Old Stage Road. Oh the history this home has seen!!!! Elegant and romantic great room with a warm and toasty fireplace, (original to the home!) was a perfect fit for an evening of relaxation. This won't be our last visit!! Thank you Jamie and Shawn for you warm and friendly hospitality! Vern and Linda Loy

Thank God that some farmers are willing to take a chance. Farm bottled glass bottle milk is great and the market is growing. I have visited several dairies in four states and love their glass bottled milk, no plastic taste, no leaking cardboard cartons and old fashioned taste. With the advent of a new product produced by EnPakt to carry the bottles safely home and back the glass bottled milk industry should continue to grow. I have one of these carriers, made of fiber, environmentally sound that keep the bottles safe and the product cool.

one of the few made since enpackt never bother completing their original production contract with us and left us holding the bag (no pun intended) on 10k plus losses working with this comapany. so much for enviornmental awareness wasting materials for thousands of bags now sitting in a back room holding area of a Guangzhou China factory, putting out of business a family owned and run chinese business from this companies actions. very environmentally concious....

Wei Knight International accepted a cash down payment from EnPakt and then failed to live up to their contractural obligation.
EnPakt was able to find another HONEST manufacturer to produce fine glass milk bottle carriers at a fairer cost. |

Jeff co-founded the Weather Underground in 1995 while working on his Ph.D. He flew with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters from 1986-1990.
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 3:28 PM GMT on September 01, 2011
Surface winds over the northern Gulf of Mexico are rising, pressures are falling, and heavy thunderstorms are building today thanks to a tropical disturbance (Invest 93L) that is the product of a tropical wave interacting with an upper-level low pressure system. At 8:35 am CDT, winds at the Mississippi Canyon 711 oil rig were south-southeast at 38 mph. This is just 1 mph below tropical storm force, but the wind instrument was 348 feet (106 m) above the ocean surface, and winds near the surface were probably considerably lower, near 30 mph. Long range radar out of Mobile, Alabama shows heavy rain showers building along the northern Gulf Coast, but these rain showers are not organized into spiral bands and show no signs of rotation. Strong upper-level winds out of the west-northwest are creating 30 knots of wind shear over 93L, keeping the storm's heavy thunderstorms disorganized. Strong onshore winds raising tides to 1 - 2 feet above normal are likely along the northern Gulf Coast through the weekend, and coastal flood statements have been issued for the region.
Figure 1. Predicted rainfall for the 5-day period ending at 8am EDT Sep 6, 2011. A large region of rains in excess of 15 inches is expected over Southeast Louisiana. Image credit: NOAA/HPC.
Figure 2. U.S. drought conditions on August 30. The rains from 93L have the potential to bring major drought relief to drought-stricken portions of the coast. Image Credit: U.S. Drought Monitor.
By late tonight, wind shear is expected to drop to the moderate range, below 20 knots, and 93L should begin to organize into a tropical depression. Wind shear is expected to remain moderate, 10 - 20 knots, into Monday. There is some cold, dry air aloft that will retard this process, and I think the earliest we would see a tropical depression is Friday afternoon. NHC is giving 93L a 70% chance of developing into a tropical depression by Saturday morning. All of the major models develop 93L near the Louisiana coast, and show a slow and erratic movement due to weak steering currents. Coastal Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and the extreme western Panhandle of Florida will likely receive very heavy flooding rains beginning this afternoon and intensifying Friday and Saturday. The latest rainfall forecast from NOAA Hydrological Prediction Center (Figure 1) shows that a large area of 15+ inches of rain is expected over Southeast Louisiana. The region is under moderate drought, so flooding problems will be delayed compared to what we'd normally expect from heavy rains of over a foot. Nevertheless, minor to moderate freshwater flooding is likely from 93L, and flash flood watches are posted for New Orleans and surrounding areas, and rainfall amounts of 1 - 3 inches per hour are possible in some of the heavier rain squalls. Ocean temperatures are near record warmth, 88°F (31.3°C), which will provide plenty of moisture for heavy rains, and plenty of energy to help 93L strengthen into a tropical storm. Most of the models predict 93L will have some motion to the west by Saturday, which would bring rains to the Texas coast near the Louisiana border. Steering currents will be weak in the Gulf this weekend and early next week, making it difficult to predict where the storm might go. If 93L stays over water through Tuesday, like the ECMWF model is predicting, the storm would be a threat to intensify into a hurricane. Most of the other models predict 93L will move ashore over Louisiana by Sunday, limiting the storm's development to just tropical storm strength. I think it at least 50% likely 93L will be a tropical storm with 40 - 60 mph winds along the coast of Louisiana by Sunday.
Hurricane Katia
Hurricane Katia intensified into the 2nd hurricane of the 2011 season last night, and continues its long trek across the Atlantic Ocean today. Katia is expected to arrive at a position several hundred miles north of the Northern Lesser Antilles Islands by Monday. The islands are not in the cone of uncertainty, and it appears unlikely that they will receive tropical storm-force winds from Katia. Satellite images show that Katia is a well-organized storm with plenty of heavy thunderstorms, but the storm has been struggling with dry air and moderate wind shear of 10 -20 knots, and is looking less organized than it did last night. These problems will likely diminish by Friday night, as the upper low bringing the wind shear moves away. It is still unclear how much of a threat Katia may post to the U.S. Dr. Bob Hart's Historical Tropical Cyclone Probability web page suggests shows that tropical storms in Katia's current position have an 16% chance of hitting North Carolina, a 21% chance of hitting Canada, a 12% chance of hitting Florida, and a 54% chance of never hitting land. I suspect that Katia will turn north before reaching the U.S. and potentially threaten Bermuda and Canada, based on what past storms in similar situations have done, and assuming the jet stream maintains its current pattern of bringing frequent troughs of low pressure off the coast of the U.S. It will be another day or two before the models will begin to have a handle on the long-term fate of Katia, though.
Figure 3. Morning satellite image of Katia.
A well-organized low pressure system with a surface circulation and limited heavy thunderstorm activity has developed between Bermuda and the Canadian Maritimes. This disturbance, (94L), is headed out to sea, and is being given a 10% chance of developing into a tropical depression by NHC. 94L is under a very high 30 - 40 knots of wind shear, and will not be able to intensify very much. However, Tropical Storm Jose formed from a similar type of system, and we might get surprised by 94L.
I'll have more on Irene in tomorrow's post.

Quoting SPLbeater: Just a little while ago on the NAVY/ATCF pages...Awaiting the National Hurricane Center advisory. |
Quoting CybrTeddy:That circulation is larger/broader than Gabrielle Sidibe though lol. I wouldn't call 93L a tropical depression just yet, but as P451 mentioned, since it's close to land, the NHC is a lil' more loose with classifying a system...a lot more loose as a matter of fact. |
Quoting HurricaneNewb: Oh no. You may be referring to the psychic twins, who appeared on the View several months back. They said that a storm of a cat 4, would hit FL, then move up the eastern seaboard. They were close, but no cigar, with Irene. But keep in mind, they didn't say which storm or give exact dates. So, who knows, they may be able to claim Katia as their vision. . . or the next one . . . or the next one. Edit: Can't be the same psycics, because they said they never use their powers for the Power Ball, "that would be wrong". They only use it for good. . . and of course to be on the View. |
THIS SEASON HAS BEEN PSYCHOTIC!!! (BOLD: Check! ; ITALIC: Possible in the next 2 weeks) Arlene Bret Cindy Don Emily Franklin Gert Harvey Irene Jose Katia Lee Maria(Maybe 94L) Nate(Possible from Tropical Wave train shown by models) Ophelia(Possible form TW train shown by models) Phillipe(Probably Sept) Rina(Probably Sept) Sean(Possible Sept/Oct) Tammy(Possible Sept/Oct) Vince(Possible Oct/Nov) Whitney(Possible Oct/Nov) THE GREEK ALPHABET WE GO! Rut Roh... This is crazy, almost 13 NS(TD13/94L), and were just beginning SEPTEMBER, Thats right. not October, SEPTEMBER |
Quote me if i am wrong, but can someone take a look at the shortwave loop on katia, it looks like she missed her next stepping stone! |
Quoting Flawestcoast: Yeah here in Sarasota we just started getting in on the action. Slow start to rainy season but it sure has picked up lately, minus the few days of dry weather Irene brought us. |
Quoting TropicalAnalystwx13: oh,when did that come out? was keeping the puppy occupied lol |
so anyone thinking katia will train west for a few days???? |
Quoting P451: At least it has one vortex center!! *cough* Emily off Florida *cough* |
Quoting P451:I can see Reed now talking about his east coast models and that NYC may be at danger.Lol.I just had to get a laugh. |
Quoting SPLbeater: Other than TROPICAL DEPRESSION THIRTEEN, no. |
Quoting P451: This looks ok to me!!! |
any new news? |
Quoting aislinnpaps:Hope you get some rain. I tried to push that storm up to ya. But it was just moving too fast. Sigh. ;-) |
At some point this morning on here someone posted about some breaking news that a physic had forcasted Katia to coninue west over florida. Think i might see if i can find that story cause if that happened im sure that person might know this weeks Powerball numbers. |
Quoting HurricaneDean07: It doesn't matter which storm reaches TD strength first. It just matters which storm reaches tropical storm strength first. |
Katia isn't liking that T.D 13 or pre Lee is trying to steal the show from her. |
nic way too start SEP LOL |
Looks like you're getting a bit of rain, Patrap. |
Quoting saintsfan06: Got any ribs? LouisianaWoman- it's just too early to tell right now. Hate to say that, but it's a huge disorganized mess of a TD. |
Quoting HurricaneDean07: No, it wouldn't. |
Quoting Clearwater1: That is what I was afraid of... |

CHICAGO — Consumers enjoy breakfast foods and beverages so much that many wish they could eat it any time of day, according to market research firm Technomic. In fact, 46% of consumers surveyed said they would like to see full-service restaurants offer breakfast throughout the day.
Women were especially more interested in having breakfast offered throughout the day. These findings are a part of the new Breakfast Consumer Trend Report from Technomic.
"Operators looking to expand breakfast into other dayparts should be mindful of their customer base and develop new offerings accordingly," said Darren Tristano, executive vice-president at Technomic. "Understanding the general flavor, ingredient and preparation preference held by female consumers can help operators and suppliers introduce the most appealing breakfast options beyond morning hours for these guests."
In addition, one in four consumers treat themselves to a large, traditional breakfast on the weekend. Sixty-three per cent of consumers said they expect their breakfast purchases at restaurants and convenience stores to remain about the same in the coming year, and consumer interest in breakfast sandwiches has grown significantly since 2007. Also, leading fast-casual restaurant chains are adding new entrees and side items to their breakfast menus faster than any other restaurant sub-segment.

The two pipe laying vessels (PLSVs) are to be built at the brand new Vard Promar yard in Recife, in the North East of Brazil. The order is part of four OSVs by DOF/Norskan and Technip, important customers for Vard. The other two of these vessels are to be built in Norway, also to DNV class. The new Vard Promar yard in North East Brazil represents a significant expansion of Brazil's shipbuilding capability as more yards will be built outside of Rio de Janeiro. At 340 tons, the Brazilian built vessels will be among the most complex vessels ever constructed in Brazil. Competence, capacity and speed are crucial elements for Brazilian yards' ability to deliver quality ships faster. "Building these specialized ships represent a great challenge: develop a design, build, test and deliver these two pipe layers in Brazil. When we combine DNV GL's experience, systematics and people with the pioneering of Vard Promar, we can deal this with this challenge," says A. S. David, VARD Promar's project manager for the pipe layers project. "We opted for DNV GL because of its professional competence and credibility as a Class Society. We also believe in a synergy between our existing design group and DNV GL's approval team based in Ålesund in Norway. Beyond that, we count on a resident DNV GL supervisor on our site in Recife, always focused on our needs as a customer, the same way DNV GL serves our Rio office," said A. S. David, Vard Promar's project manager for the pipe layers project. The new designs have been developed in close cooperation with DOF and Technip. The Norwegian built vessels will carry pipe lay towers rated at 650 tons, among the largest ever in the industry. DNV GL is a partner for Brazil's ship building industry. DNV GL has helped yards and owners expand and improve ship building capabilities throughout the world, and in Brazil DNV GL has a leading market share of OSV newbuildings, and almost half of all OSVs in operations. dnv.com

A 79-year-old woman has died in hospital after being struck by a car near Muriwai in one of two incidents in the area this morning.
Acting senior sergeant Andrew Wong said the elderly woman stepped into traffic near the intersection of Muriwai Rd and State Highway 16 about 9.30am, and was hit by a Holden Commodore.
She was taken to hospital with head injuries, but died soon after.
Neighbours of the woman, who is believed to have lived locally, comforted her at the scene.
SH16 was reduced to one lane for a time as serious crash investigators conducted a scene examination and spoke to witnesses including the driver of the Commodore.
The woman's name would not be released until next of kin had the opportunity to notify their wider family, police said.
In the second incident, a toddler was hit by a car in a driveway about 10.20am in Taupaki.
Wong said the two-year-old boy was taken to Starship Children's Hospital with moderate injuries and would be fine but "very sore".

Pfizer drops AstraZeneca takeover bid: American drugs giant admits defeat and scraps offer for British pharmaceutical company
US pharmaceutical giant had until 5pm to pursue bid or walk away
Deputy Business Editor
Monday 26 May 2014
Pfizer, the US Viagra giant, has scrapped its takeover offer for Britain's AstraZeneca, bringing an end to one of the most politically charged corporate deals in decades.
The company had until 5pm today to make up its mind on whether to formally walk away under UK takeover rules.
It now has to wait six months before launching another bid.
In a statement this afternoon, it said: "Following the AstraZeneca board's rejection of the proposal, Pfizer announces that it does not intend to make an offer for AstraZeneca."
Leif Johansson, chairman of AstraZeneca, said: "We note Pfizer's confirmation that it no longer intends to make an offer for AstraZeneca. We welcome the opportunity to continue building on the momentum we have already demonstrated as an independent company."
He added: "The Board is grateful to Pascal, his management team and to all our employees for their dedication and focus over a period of uncertainty."
The deal's collapse was instantly welcomed by Labour shadow Business Secretary Chuka Umunna, who was concerned from the outset about the implications for the UK's science base.
Pfizer had taken pains to promise that 20 per cent of research and development jobs would remain in the UK, but its track record on previous acquisitions of slashing research budgets and closing research centres still worried the science community.
Memories were still vivid of Pfizer's closure of its big development site in Kent, where it invented Viagra.
The ghost of Kraft's takeover of Cadbury also loomed large. That deal saw the American processed cheese giant renege on a promise not to shut a Cadbury factory soon after the takeover had gone through.
AstraZeneca's board had flatly refused to discuss a deal with the company until it offered more than £55 a share and made clearer proposals on how the deal would avoid disrupting its potentially lucrative programme of inventing new medicines.
At the heart of the controversy was Pfizer's admission that a key reason for the deal was for it to save tax by moving its domicile, but not its headquarters, to low-tax UK.
Some shareholders were angry that it was this, rather than the long term health of the company, that was driving Pfizer's management. Given that a large proportion of the purchase price was to be made in shares of the combined company, investors were more concerned about the future than they would have been if it was a simple cash deal.
However, other big Pfizer shareholders including its biggest investor, BlackRock, were irritated that AstraZeneca had not engaged in talks with Pfizer.
Chuka Umunna MP, Labour's Shadow Business Secretary, said: "It is welcome that Pfizer has kept to its promise not to mount a hostile takeover of AstraZeneca, Britain's second largest pharmaceutical company, following the rejection of its advances by the AstraZeneca Board.
"We were clear from the start that we would judge the proposed deal on whether it was best for British science, jobs and industry. We were not confident this was the case which was why we said the Government should subject the deal to a public interest test to determine whether it would have a material adverse impact on the UK's science and R&D base and, if so, we argued it should be blocked."
The Conservatives have been keen to make it clear that this was an issue for the shareholders and company boards to decide upon rather than politicians. But they too were forced into making a show of demanding strong assurances on UK jobs.
Pfizer was also facing a growing backlash in the US, where a political head of steam appears to be building to block US companies from buying foreign companies in order to move their tax domicile to low tax havens like the UK.
At the weekend, it emerged that a US company had made a similar proposal to InterContinental Hotels Group – the British based biggest hotel operator in the world.
It is unlikely that such a deal would lead to calls for a public interest test, however.

NEW YORK (AP) — Barbara Corcoran expects entrepreneurs to listen to what she says, and then do what they want. Even when they're using her money to build their companies.
Corcoran, now one of the investors on the ABC program "Shark Tank," made her name running New York real estate brokerage Corcoran Group. Over nearly 30 years, she took chances, made some mistakes — and learned how to take risks. She often asked for advice, then grew to trust her own instincts and do what she thought was best.
Now Corcoran expects her "Shark Tank" entrepreneurs, including the owners of food truck operator Cousins Maine Lobster and baker Daisy Cake, to do the same.
"My worst entrepreneurs listen to everything I say and do it that way. My best entrepreneurs listen to me and do as they please," she says.
Corcoran spoke with The Associated Press about Corcoran Group, which she sold in 2001 for $66 million, and her "Shark Tank" entrepreneurs. Here are excerpts, edited for clarity and brevity:
Q. What are the most important lessons you learned about being a small business owner from Corcoran Group?
A. Being a little guy, you have the corner on creativity over the corner on money that the big guy has. I learned that when I was starting the business and in those early years, when I got very intimidated by the fact that the real estate brokerage field was owned by men who inherited the business from their father, and they had access to cash all the time.

Not feeling sorry for yourself is an essential card to have and I don't see people succeed without it.
