Dow Today: Chevron (CVX) Leads The Day Higher, United Technologies (UTX) Lags
Dow Jones Industrial Average (
^DJI) closed up 34 points (+0.3%) at 13,080. During the day, 624.3 million shares of the 30 Dow components have changed hands vs. an average daily trading volume of 818.6 million. The NYSE advances/declines ratio closed at 2,120 issues advancing vs. 863 declining with 116 unchanged.
The Dow component that led the way higher today was
Chevron (NYSE:
CVX), which sported a $1.06 gain (+1%) bringing the stock to $106.41. This single gain lifted the Dow Jones Industrial Average by 8.02 points or roughly accounting for 23.6% of the Dow's overall gain. Volume for Chevron ended the day at 5.4 million shares traded vs. an average daily trading volume of 8.8 million shares.
Chevron has a market cap of $212.53 billion and is part of the
basic materials sector and
energy industry. Shares are up 1.4% year to date as of Thursday's close. The stock's dividend yield sits at 3%.
Chevron Corporation, through its subsidiaries, engages in petroleum, chemicals, mining, power generation, and energy operations worldwide. It operates in two segments, Upstream and Downstream. The company has a P/E ratio of eight, above the average energy industry P/E ratio of 7.9 and below the S&P 500 P/E ratio of 17.7.
TheStreet Ratings rates Chevron as a
buy. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, largely solid financial position with reasonable debt levels by most measures, attractive valuation levels, good cash flow from operations and notable return on equity. We feel these strengths outweigh the fact that the company has had sub par growth in net income.

Why This Hacker Stood Up Against 'Verbal Abuse' in Linux Land
Skip to storyWhen Sarah Sharp was a 20-year-old university student in Portland, she took on an extra-credit project writing USB driver code for the Linux kernel. She was too young to stay past 10 p.m. in some of the brew pubs where the local Linux-heads met, but she hung in as long as she could, learned a lot about Linux, and embraced the community.
Growing up in the small town of Ranier, Oregon (Pop. 1,900), she knew she wanted to be a programmer. She profiled that way: She loved playing with Legos and, later, taking apart PCs. Now, she spends her spare time in appropriately geeky pursuits: tinkering with open source rockets and writing her own gardening software (available on GitHub, natch). And over the past seven years, she's had her dream come true. She's been writing USB code for the Linux kernel, working with her longtime mentor, Greg Kroah-Hartman.
But this week, after Linux creator Linus Torvalds told Kroah-Hartman to get tough with developers who submitted sub-standard patches, Sharp, 28, felt he'd crossed a line, and she told him so. Torvalds says he needs to be plainspoken so that the thousands of contributors to the Linux project will get a clear message of what works and what doesn't. But Sharp says that that aggressive tone is bad for Linux. According to her, it's keeping some good developers away. Following is an edited transcript of a telephone interview with Sharp
WIRED: So what happened on the Linux kernel mailing list this week?
Sarah Sharp: Greg's one of the nicest kernel maintainers out there. He's very very polite and helpful to newcomers in the kernel. And I think he gets things done without resorting to verbal abuse.
So, basically, these people were joking: "Hey, you need to be verbally abusive." And it just didn't seem right. This has been something that people have tried to discuss before about the kernel communications style. So, basically, I just decided to say: "Hey, this is really not cool. We shouldn't be advocating for having more verbal abuse on the mailing list."
The thing is: this discussion itself is probably not going to change anyone, but it's going to spawn a lot of private conversations. And we're going to go talk about this when the kernel summit happens in October.
WIRED: What have people been saying to you privately, since you brought this up?
Sharp: I've gotten a lot of private emails expressing support for standing up to Linus. Some of these are from prominent open source people in KDE, Gnome, Canonical…I can't say who they are because they wanted to remain private, but they basically said: "Yes, this is a problem and thank you for standing up."
I also got some really awful hate mail that tried to drag my gender in. But I don't think this is a gendered topic. This is about people and developers being civil and respectful to each other and trying to figure out how to communicate.
WIRED: Is this an open source issue or is this a Linux issue?
Sharp: There are some open source projects that have explicitly told their members: "We need to be civil because we don't want to be like the kernel project." And there are some people that justify how their project is run by saying: "Well the Linux kernel works this way." So, I think it's not just a Linux kernel discussion. It's also an open source discussion.
WIRED: On your blog, you point out that much of the Linux kernel development is being done by professionals on salary. Many people don't realize that.
Sharp: Twenty percent of the kernel contributors are either students or hobbyists. But 80 percent of the kernel contributors are paid by companies. So that means that the Linux kernel really has a lot of people from corporations on there. Some of them, like Linus, are paid by nonprofits. But it's still becoming more of a corporate environment, and a lot of corporations have codes of conduct. And those codes of conduct often say things about how you conduct yourself on public forums or social media. The code of conduct for those companies also applies to the [Linux Kernel] mailing list.
So we need to figure out how to be respectful and civil to each other in the mailing list because this is no longer a volunteer project. People are paid to work on this. This is about making a workplace more civil and more respectful.
WIRED: You're from a different generation than Linus. Do you think your attitude represents a changing attitude toward open source work?
Sharp: I think that my perspective is somewhat colored by both my gender and my age. A lot of the kernel maintainers came into Linux at the very beginning when there weren't a lot of women in there. There weren't a lot of racial minorities. There were a lot of real young kernel developers. So I think they picked up a little bit of the brogrammer culture and kind of said: "Yeah it's OK to yell at each other because we'll obviously just meet over beer and pound each other on the back and it will be all fine."
Sometimes, that just doesn't work for people who aren't men. As for the age, I think because I came into Linux later — I came in seven years ago instead of 20 years ago — I work in a pretty diverse group at Intel. I see face-to-face a lot of different people that are working on Linux. I think I have a different perspective on how we should work together respectfully than some of the people who may have been around in Linux for longer.
WIRED: How diverse is the Linux kernel community now?
Sharp: I think less than one percent of the kernel developers are women. We don't really know what the hard numbers are, but FOSS [Free and Open Source Software] in general is maybe 1 to 3 percent women. And proprietary software is maybe 20 to 30 percent. As for minorities, I think we're getting a few more minorities in the kernel. But you can count them on your hand.
WIRED: Linus says that "if I'm not the way I am, then people will misunderstand me." What do you say to that?
Sharp: You can be direct without being aggressive. You can give negative feedback without cussing people out.
There's a fine line between showing your displeasure and verbally tearing somebody apart. How do you tell someone that their code is crap without making it into a personal attack? This discussion is going to be ongoing. I don't expect Linus to change overnight. He's been this way for 20 years. The only thing is: I just want to open a discussion channel and have a frank discussion with this, and have it among kernel developers.
WIRED: So how are things with you and Linus right now? Do you guys hate each other?
Sharp: I don't hate Linus. He is who he is. He's been doing this for a very long time. I really respect him technically. I respect his ability as a release manager — he manages so much code. So I really respect Linus, I just don't respect his communication style. This has opened up a lot of good conversations. I don't think we're going to hate each other. I think we're going to go to Kernel Summit and eat cookies and discuss this.

The process of economic growth has always been characterised by structural changes. In primeval stages of economic development, the share of agriculture both in output and employment is overwhelmingly large. As industrialisation proceeds apace, demand for agricultural goods slides down, and market for industrial goods goes up. When the economy reaches a still higher stage of development, the service sector comes into its own, overtaking both agriculture and industry. Service sector has emerged as the largest and fast-growing segment in the world economy today.
Correspondingly, the Indian service sector has also registered unprecedented growth; it has now become a major driving force spearheading the economy. The LPG phase [liberalisation/privatisation /globalisation] of Indian economy, commencing from the 1990s set the pace for a rapid turnaround of the service sector. It is during the last two decades that India has changed from an agrarian base into a knowledge base. Knowledge base creates, disseminates, and employs information in the developmental process of an economy.
The service sector holds the key to accelerating growth and promoting plenty and prosperity in the country. Services are extensively used by people in their day-to-day activities. "The objective of this book is to analyse the role of the service sector in development, with reference to the Indian experience", says Gaurav Nayyar in the preface. When a research thesis is transformed into a book, the metamorphosis usually suffers from a structural handicap. The academic straitjacket of the previous format is not easy to let go.
But this volume takes the reader step by step in a linear and logical fashion, which makes the narrative easy to read and retain. In the words of the author: "… the results of one chapter set the stage for the analysis in the next chapter, or a set of results from one chapter validate important assumptions in a subsequent chapter." Thus, the book is born as a cohesive and consistent literary work.
Real growth
The opening chapter provides an overview of the book, besides an introduction into its central theme. A detailed discussion follows about the migration of the economy from agriculture to industry and from industry to service sector. The second chapter recounts the presence of conceptual problems, statistical constraints, and measurement difficulties in analysing output and productivity in the service sector. Nevertheless, it moves forward and attempts to resolve theses issues in order to recognise the dominant role of the service sector.
The book, then, provides ample evidence to establish that growth in service sector is real, and not notional. Another factor surfacing in this context is the quantum of exports triggered by software technology, call centres, and business process outsourcing. The author, then, employs advanced econometric tools like Engel Curve Estimates [so named after Ernst Engel, an economist from Belgium, who evolved this technique] to explore and vindicate demand potential for the service sector in India.
Towards this, a household survey is conducted in respect of six types of services viz., education, health, entertainment, personal, communication, and transport. The results demonstrate that "services" account for a larger share in the domestic budget, when family income is on the rise — more prosperity in the family means more scope for services.
The fifth chapter creates history by opening "the black box of the service sector". In other words, the service sector is disaggregated with reference to a set of ten economic attributes for furthering a full-scale analysis of its features and framework. While examining the scope for, and nature of, finding employment in the service sector, the book declares that employment opportunities are more in areas where educational requirements and quality of life are both at the low end of the scale.
The penultimate chapter addresses issues of labour productivity in agriculture vis-à-vis urban informal sector. A significant recommendation made is that public investment in economic and social infrastructure is an essential determinant of labour productivity. The last chapter is devoted to a summary of the earlier chapters: "to present and synthesize the main conclusions from each chapter of the book and to explore possible links between them." The book ends with a beacon call to academic scholars that "future research must focus on carrying out detailed case studies of individual segments of the service sector."
The service sector in India's Development by Gaurav Nayyar; Cambridge University Press, 4381/4, Ansari Road, Daryaganj, New Delhi-110002. Rs. 895.

Oh thanks coffetea, so kind, there is already a similar one on my page one of my bubble which I did a month ago…. well i was just playing with the extract tool and layers, but when i finished it, the image was rather small, so i have just redone it with a bigger bit of sky to make the overall image bigger! Anyway, because there is already a similar image floating around various groups, I have not submitted it to any groups, just put it at the bottom of my bubble, on the vaguest off chance someone wants to buy it!!!

For Aries men, sex is very important. They can not live for long without it. Their relationships usually start very early. They rarely carefully choose their sexual partner, but it is true that they gain so much experience from quite early age. At the beginning of any relationship he is very passionate and fiery, but he later gradually settles his passion and sometimes attains a routine practice in sex which might be tedious and boring.
Aries is adventurous, passionate, hunter! He likes to make risky sex and he has a strong and violent sexuality. He can light fires in the air and he has the most amazing ideas. He gives it all and he wants it all. He is not very loyal. He seeks for original experiences, sensual, often with older women and Aries women with younger men or the opposite. Aries knows the strategy to succumb to his charm. He has no taboos and he enjoys challenging the situations. He is bold and takes chances. He likes to have sex in the most unlikely places experiencing strange postures. He does not confuse sex with relationship. For him sex is a workhorse. He likes to show his abilities and to always have the last word. But he is romantic and sentimental.
Searching for wild passion and love, he lives his life to the fullest. Tensions and quarrels are aphrodisiac to him. He is zealous and sometimes he can become a masochist. He is a champion in sex and each time is even better than the previous one. Love wants imagination and creativity. If you want to stay with him, you must fulfill all his sexual needs. He is wacky, he likes to speak by vulgar words. He likes kisses on his neck, ears! Massage to the hair, excites him. He loves sex show. He is quick at all! He wants to date the woman who met two hours before! Do not go after him because he feels that he loses his identity and his interest. He sometimes has catastrophic instincts.
If he does the same things, he constantly loses his imagination. Ii is quite difficult for him to match with a partner who seeks sensitivity simply because he cannot understand what his partner wants. So if you are in this position, you must find a discreet way to guide him and to indicate what you want. But beware! Aries dislikes suggestions and comments, so it would be good to be quite careful.
Sometimes, some Aries likes threesomes, porn movies and group sex. But these are rare cases and they are always willing to follow your suggestions!

OXFORD, England, June 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Today Moscamed made the first releases of Oxitec GM mosquitoes to mark the launch of a new programme to control the dengue mosquito Aedes aegypti in the town of Jacobina in the State of Bahia.
In previous trials Moscamed have demonstrated that, using the Oxitec mosquitoes, it is possible to rapidly reduce the number of dengue mosquitoes in a town. In the most recent demonstration in Mandacaru the level of these mosquitoes were reduced by 96% within 6 months and it was shown that this reduction could be maintained for many months including through the time of the year when normally mosquito levels would be at their peak.
The launch of the new programme came at the initiative of Jorge Solla, Secretary of Health for the state of Bahia, who is determined to reduce the threat of dengue fever in the region. In the first three months of 2013, there were 72 registered cases in this city of 48,000 people. There was previously an outbreak with over 1,700 cases and 2 deaths in 2012.
The Mayor of Jacobina, Rui Macedo said "It is a historic fact to be able to deploy this project to control the Aedes aegypti mosquito in our city. This research that aims to reduce the dengue mosquito population is extremely important for the public health of Jacobina. We are really excited with the results that we might achieve through this research".
Moscamed Director Dr Aldo Malavasi said, "The Jacobina programme represents the next step for us in the fight against mosquitoes that spread dengue. We have had wonderful support from the local community, local and state health and vector control officials and national authorities and experts and we are now ready to show that this approach can be used at significant scale to help protect people from these disease carrying mosquitoes.

6 Actors Who Should Play The Next 'Green Lantern'
Published 2 years ago by Andrew Dyce , Updated October 1st, 2013 at 2:12 pm, This is a list post.175 Comments
It would be too hard for Alex O due to his busy schedule with Five-0 they only get 3 2 and a half months break and has a son who has just turned 5 months old today but with Alex & Bob I think they'll find a way but great choice. I would also think Nathan Fillion of David Boreanaz also
The trolls, they are a-comin'!!!
Guard your women, children, and livestock…oooh, the humanity…
Idris and Pine would be GREAT choices. I'd even like Common (definitely over RR's Hal, even though I like RR).
I'd also like to throw Michael C. Hall, Toby Kebbell and James Franco into the mix.
Great list! If Reynolds doesn't want to reprise his role as Hal, Pine would definitely be my first choice, and Elba would make a great John Stewart imo.
The only actor on this list that doesn't make sense (at least, as Hal Jordan) is Jai Courtney: he doesn't really look the part and as an actor he's been kinda "meh" in all the movies I've seen him in (I think they should get someone who has better screen presence)If Ryan Reynolds does't reprise the role of GL, I think that Chris Pine or Alex O'Laughlin would be perfect in the part. No one else, in my opinion, would be as good. I enjoyed Ryan Reynolds in the part and cannot understand why the movie was so panned. I even bought the DVD and have watched it more than once. I hope that Reynolds will reconsider, if he is approached to sign on again. He IS Green Lantern, as far as I am concerned.
I like Bradley Cooper as Hal Jordan, Idris as Stewart, the son from Die Hard 5 as Gardner, and Pine as Barry Allen.
Common as John Stewart, then they're good to go.
Yeah hed be good I also think that if they do it Hal should be older, a big part of the corp but not the main focus, i think they should focus on Chris Pine as Kyle Rayner, and if guy is in it Jensen Ackles should play him. I dont think Pine should play the Flash i think the role of Barry Allen should go to someone more like John Krasinski. Who ever plays Hal if he retuns should be in their 40's. Batman should be Matt Bomer in the JLA movie
I think Gabriel Macht from suits would be a great recast for Hal jordan.
I like Macht and think he would be an inspired choice (though I'm fine with Reynolds returning). I, however, would love to see him as The Question…or even The Phantom Stranger.
I'm a GL Nerd, So, here goes
Ryan Reynolds-Hal Jordan (Hey dude, it's the writers fault. They botched Deadpool in Wolverine, too. And if your gonna quit. You should 've been patient & played The Flash, like you was casted for)
Michael Jai White-John Stewart (Remember, John Stewart is a MARINE!!)
Josh Hartnett- Kyle Rayner
Liam Nessen- Alan Scott
Keith David- Voice of Kiliwog
Michael Rosenbaum-Guy Gardner
And bring Sinestro back, Mark Strong did a good job.
They can have him team up with MongelMongel-Gerard Butler (Plus CGI)
And bring in Fatality, for a cameo
Fatality-Keke Palmer
Killer Frost-Oliva Wilde
DC doesnt get it. GL is about as tough as his supporting Cast. Built them & BAM!!! You got it.!
I totally agree with you on The Flash bit.
and have better writers. How about it being over seen by someone who knows the book well……Like Me!!!
I would like to see Jensen Ackles to play "The Emerald Archer" as Hal Jordan..
I still like Ryan Reynolds, give him another chance for the part
I agree
Ok a lot of lists have great actors, all of which have proven themselves. But some of the actors don't match the profiles of those epic characters. I admit a few match the profile well.
Here are some of my suggestions
Flash: funny, energetic, good heart, not super buff but toned: Matt Bomer( charming, athletic build, movie tested actor) or Garret Hedlund: I thought he did well in Tron( physically fits th role, but note that the flash is known for his happy go lucky personality), Armie Hammer( good looking, tall, body fits the role really well, serious but still charming, I think he would be perfect)
Superman: Serious, bold, strong, the penical of morality, iconic strong jaw lined mans man:
Henry Cavill( thought a long time and he is already doing man of steel plus he has got the superman look down)
Batman: Dark, serious, bold, strict,: honestly Daniel Craig hands down
I'm gonna get lazy now
Green Lantern: Stewart: Idris Elba
Gardner: Jai Courtney
Wonder Woman: Jessica Biel, Olivia Wilde, Jennifer Lawrence
Aguaman: Garret Hedlund, Ryan Gosling, or Alex Pettyfer
Martian Man Hunter: Djimon HounsouYou know what I'll give Hedlund Aquaman and Gosling Green Arrow
I like Chris Pine, but he lacks a physical presence. In other words, he's kinda small.
I may be alone here but I liked Ryan Renolds and The Green Lantern so I think they should just stick with him.
I got an idea, why don't we have John Stewart get a Lantern Ring in the Justice League movie, then in the next Green Lantern film Hal Jordan trains him and then they do a simple prison transfer for Mongul, this is where Hal Jordan tells John he had to stop Mongul and his War Machine while Justice League was going on. During the prison transfer Mongul breaks free thanks to Sinestro and now it's up to Hal and John to stop them.
I think Nathan Fillion should play Green Lantern
Howdy very cool blog!! Guy .. Excellent .. Amazing ..
I'll bookmark your web site and take the feeds additionally? I'm satisfied to seek
out a lot of useful info here within the publish, we
need work out extra strategies in this regard, thanks
for sharing. . . . . .An outstanding share! I have just forwarded this onto a coworker who was doing a little research
on this. And he in fact ordered me breakfast due to the fact that I stumbled upon it for him.
.. lol. So let me reword this…. Thanks
for the meal!! But yeah, thanks for spending time to talk about this topic here on your website.I say Chris Pine should play Guy Garner
John Stewart: J. August Richards
Guy Gardner: James DeBello
Kyle Rayner: Aaron JohnsonNo Michael Jai White? I am disappoint.
All of these options suck. Seriously.
Try again.
John Barrowman would look more like Hal than any of these guys and (if you can stop him from kissing everyone) would be able to pull the acting off too.
Honestly, someone needs to be the grizzled Veteran of the group. I grew up on Hal Jordan, and the way he was portrayed and his powers displayed…utterly damaging. This guy is willpower and imagination in the same way that Batman is Justice personified…unstoppable. I want the gray sideburns and a veteran presence on the team to tie them to the larger universe. He rivals Supes in power. I'd get the blond Stark from GoT or Chewetle Okefor (SP?) if you want diversity (sorely needed). But I'm a Hal guy.
Idris would be a phenomenal John Stewart and if they decide to recast Hal I think Chris Pine would be the best choice they could make
I think that if they do it Hal should be older, a big part of the corp but not the main focus, i think they should focus on Chris Pine as Kyle Rayner, and if guy is in it Jensen Ackles should play him. I dont think Pine should play the Flash i think the role of Barry Allen should go to someone more like John Krasinski. Who ever plays Hal if he retuns should be in their 40's
I would like to see Renolds back. Granted even if you have your problems with the 2011 Green Lantern Movie, you can at least admit he makes a great Hal Jordan. If not hi, I would like to see Justin Bartha (The Hangover Trilogy) fill the slot. Looks the part, under rated actor, and naturally whitty.
Would be nice to see a dark skinned guy play John Stewart. Why doesn't anyone want Michael R. to play Flash, his voice is perfect for the kind of comic relief Flash brings to the table…
rosenbaum will forever be lex luthor
common was the best choice in that list
I would like to submit LL Cool J for consideration. I think he has the physical presence for the role. And his roles in SWAT and NCIS LA shows that he can play a lawman with a certain snarkiness.
I think Ryan Reynolds should be green lantern because he was in the movie green lantern It would just be the smartest instead of re-casting a new face. Ryan Reynolds is the best session. I love Ryan Reynolds he is such an amazing actor.

Early on, he noted that disgraced actor Charlie Sheen has attracted a sizeable Twitter following for his unfiltered musings. Klososky asked the audience if they followed Sheen. Only a few hands went up, but that was enough. "Stop it," Klososky commanded. "You're just encouraging him at this point."
Later, Klososky pointed out that young people are young people regardless of the technologies available to them. A 10-year-old boy is going to waste little time with a connected device before he's searching for terms like "kissing" or "naked." After waiting a moment for the audience reaction to fade, he said, "Don't act like you weren't a 10-year-old boy!"
"But I wasn't!" came a female voice in response.

Coupon exclusions for 4inkjets
If you entered a code and didn't get a discount, the most likely reason is that genuine name brand ink (called, "OEM") is excluded from most coupons. In fact, companies like Canon, Epson, HP, Brother, Ricoh, Xerox,and Lexmark have strict rules that prevent inkjet resellers from offering coupons that undercut their own profit margins.
For this reason, most stores that sell ink online hope that you'll choose the less expensive generic version of ink, as they can be much more flexible with the price.

There are actually seasonal sales, usually in the 2 weeks leading up to a major holiday when 4inkjets offers their best coupons; usually 15% off plus free shipping on any size order.
The more you buy, the more you save
What's true for mayonnaise and soda is also true for ink; the more you buy, the lower the price is per ounce. In fact, if you go to 4inkjets.com, you notice that next to most ink cartridges there is a lower price per unit if you buy at least three. For this reason, you'll get the best price when you stock up, especially when you add a coupon into the mix!

Kid friendly | July 20, 2014 | |
My young daughter loves her "panda" tea. She has always enjoyed fruity teas, and this is her new favorite. It is a little heavy on the fruit for me (I'd prefer a more subtle flavor), but since I purchased it for her, it's perfect. :) |
Really good | May 29, 2014 | |
My wife is taking chemo and many things don't taste very good. She loves this and since it doesn't have caffeine it doesn't keep her awake when steroids are part of the chemo mix. |
My New Favorite from Republic of Tea | April 02, 2014 | |
This tea has a really nice strawberry and cherry flavor. Of the seven teas I've sampled from Republic of Tea, this is my new favorite! I plan to always have this tea on hand. |
a perfect blend | March 27, 2014 | |
I hesitate to buy blended fruit teas. However, Panda Berry Tea immediately shot to the top of my personal 'go to' list. |
One of the best teas I have ever had | January 12, 2014 | |
This tea is excellent. I have only had it hot, but it is easy for me to imagine it cold and still tasting wonderful. This tea was amazing with honey and it is great for kids too. |
Great for a work night! | October 12, 2013 | |
I love this tea on a night when I have to get up for work the next day. I've made it both hot and iced, and its good both ways. I find when I brew it, I need to use two tea bags in order to get the maximum flavor. It's my favorite decaf tea, and my second favorite overall. I will definitely be purchasing this product again. |
not much cherry flavor. | January 19, 2013 | |
would like it to be stronger flavored.Wount buy again, unless, i mix it with something else... |
So good for kids with bad coughs!!! | January 04, 2013 | |
Doctors often do not recommend cough syrup for children. I found that when my children have bad coughs they sip on the tea and feel much better. They love the taste !!! |
Not worth it | December 05, 2012 | |
I was so excited when I first read about this tea--strawberry, cherry, and decaf black tea--sign me up. I was so eager to try this tea and was so hoping that I would love it like I do the Cherry Apple Red and Strawberry Vanilla Red, but I just found this difficult to drink. It wasn't awful enough to hassle with returning/exchanging it, but it took me forever to finish this tin. It was fruity tasting, but I couldn't distinguish it as being either strawberry or cherry and it just wasn't a quality black tea leaf...well, I suppose it could have been and the flavoring could have killed it. I wouldn't recommend this. |
Love it | November 03, 2012 | |
I love this tea - it's hard to find now so I'm stocking up, It's my go to decaf tea. You do have to let it steep for a while, but that doesn't bother me. Love it! |
Kids Cuppa | October 16, 2012 | |
I was in love with the Kids Cuppa tea but was very disapointed when i discovered they no longer made it. My best friend emailed the company and they simply changed the name to this! I have yet to receive this in but i hope its as good as the original. Thanks :D |
Great Childrens Tea | October 08, 2012 | |
I am a big tea drinker and wanted to start my grandchildren out early. I tried other teas recommended for children but this was the first one they liked. My granddaughter has been drinking it since she was 4. At 8 she enjoys other of your decaf flavored teas but this is one of her favorites. A suggestion when starting out is to use a little more water and even add a tad more honey. I did this for the first several times and eventually made it per the recipe. |

Our taste buds just did not like this tea. |
Not for me | March 17, 2012 | |
I was very disappointed in this tea. I tried to have a couple cups of it, but never liked it. Guests and friends all liked it, so I used it up by giving it to other people to drink. I'm a HUGE fan of Republic of Teas and love most other flavours but this is one of the few, rare ones that I didn't like at all. |
92 year old loves this tea | March 16, 2012 | |
This is one of my 92 year old father's favorite teas. He loves the blend of strawberry and cherry. |
March 09, 2012 | ||
What a dreadful tea-I threw the entire, expensive can out after one cup. The last few cans I bought in a grocery store so thought their staleness was due to that but this was horrible. I fell in love with Ginger Peach so hopefully that's still delightful. |
The Original Panda Berry Tea | January 26, 2012 | |
This is a delicious tea and it was originally called the Panda Berry Tea. I don't know exactly why The Republic of Tea changed the tea's name and its location. It used to be part of the Children Teas. It has been my son's favorite since he was 5 and he calls it "Andy Panda". He and I enjoy drinking a cup together after school. It is full of fruity flavors and leaves you relax and happy! |
Not my Favorite | January 15, 2012 | |
Not sweet or fruity. Tastes a bit like cough syrup, with flavors I can't identify. Just not a pleasant experience at all. |
Well blended flavor | December 25, 2011 | |
Thankfully not a candy taste of cherry or strawberry, but a mature blend with the black tea that produces a "tea" not a syrup. Excellent with cream. |
Not very berry like | December 10, 2011 | |
The smell and taste of this almost makes me sick. I cannot taste any strawberry or cherry flavors. Too many other flavors in the tea that I do not like. Not good as an iced tea either. Not at all as advertized. |

The Atari 800XL, together with the 600XL, were successors of the Atari 400/800 series and the unsuccessful Atari 1200 XL in a more compact case. They could use almost the same software, just so long as the program was written correctly, because of some slight differences between OS versions. The 800XL had 64 KB of RAM, two joystick ports and kept all the custom chips (Pokey, GTIA, Antic) of the previous models. It also featured the new Parallel Bus Interface (PBI) providing high speed access to the system bus. The new version of the graphic Antic chip offered 16 graphics modes instead of 12 for the 800. An enhanced version, called 800XLF, appeared in summer 1984. It was equipped with the new "Freddie" chip which allowed faster memory management, especially for graphics display. This version was released in Europe with SECAM video interface. Alongside the Commodore 64 and the Apple II, the 600 and 800XL were among the most popular home computers. They would be replaced in 1985 with the XE series when Atari launched the ST.
Martin Scott Goldberg says : Regarding the comment "and can use the same software just so long as the program was written correctly", a translator disk was provided with the 1050 disk drive (the drive released with the XL series) that allowed the 600/800xl to run all older software. What it basicly did was load the original 400/800 OS over the XL one in memory.
The Atari 6502 CPU was a custom made and incorporated "74LS245" that allowed it to disconnect from address and data bus. This allowed the Antic CPU (Display processor) to access video memory while 6502 waits. I think a HALT pin was added for this purpose or something similar.
Yes, the CPU is called the 6502C. The letter isn''t a speed bump designator like the A or B, it''s just a 6502 with a custom pinout. I don''t think it was ever used elsewhere and I think all they did was add a HALT PIN.
I don''t believe the prossesor was a 6502C, the 6502 was 1MHz, the 6502A was 2MHz so an A variant would have been enough to run at 1.79MHz and I remember as a kid opening the computer I was looking for the 6502 processor and there is no chip inside with the part number 6502 $ the chip wasn''t numbered 6502 it had a different part number because I believe it was a modified 6502. from what I remember I don''t think there ever was a 6502C, a manufacturer did produce an 65C02 which was a lower power CMOS version but I am fairly sure didn''t come until some time later and was not used in the Atari computers.

Changing prices are stretching family budgets
Even the most blasé citizen has had to sit up and take notice of the price graph. From cereals and pulses to fruits and milk, chicken and meat, and processed foods, everything has become dearer. Needless to say, monthly budgets are strained as families grapple to stretch the budget without cutting down on the essentials.
People are putting in place coping mechanisms that range from change in consumption pattern to consciously cutting down protein-rich foods. The constant revision of prices is being attributed to a variety of factors along the production chain, including rising input costs for farmers, poor rainfall, lack of timely government intervention and hoarding.
Since February 2011, the price of milk — an important source of nutrition — has increased by no less than 42 per cent. Sugar is up by 13 per cent and wheat by 18. Eggs, which low-income families will tell you have become a luxury, have seen a 36 per cent price increase.
Pulses, which saw a huge price spike that later stabilised, recorded no less than a 60 per cent increase. However, the steepest rise has been in the price of two crucial staples, rice and ragi: a staggering 78 per cent and 100 per cent, respectively. Among other protein sources, mutton, fish and chicken went up by roughly 77 per cent, 100 per cent and 23 per cent.
Even fruits have become somewhat of a luxury. The prices of the popular yelakki banana and even the papaya shot up by 30 per cent during the period. The cheapest grape variety is up by 34 per cent and twice that much for the high-end variety. As for apples, they don't tempt as much as they did with their three-figure tag.
Even consumers with expensive tastes — particularly those who buy organic — have had to swallow hard and fork out premium rates. Yes, everybody is feeling the pinch.
"You name the product, its price rise has been steep. Rent, LPG cylinder and petrol too have gone up," said Kiran S., a mid-level executive in a private bank. "However, our salaries have not seen the kind of rise needed to meet these expenses," he said. In the last two years, the budget of his family, consisting of his five year-old daughter and wife, has gone up by almost Rs. 3,000 a month.
So how is he coping? "We have cut back on eating out and weekend travel," he said. So much so the family is now toying with the idea of ironing its own clothes. "We were paying Rs. 3 a garment: it is now Rs. 4," he added.
Blaming government policy for this steep rise, Ramesh Chandra Lahoti, president of Bangalore Wholesale Grain Merchants Association, said: "We have no control over climatic conditions. But proper government intervention can help. Even when agriculture input declines, foodgrains continue to be exported, [pushing up] prices in domestic market due to scarcity."
He attributed the high pulse prices to dependence on imports.
The steep increase in chicken price is being attributed to a sharp upward price movement of soya and maize. "The cost of soya went up by about 70 per cent and maize 50 per cent. However, despite the rising chicken prices, demand has not come down," said K. Giridhar, business manager, National Egg Coordination Committee.
The worst hit are the low income families. For, unlike in the past, when they could substitute rice with other millets such as ragi, this time around this option too is a bit of a stretch: a kg of the humble ragi is now Rs. 40, compared to Rs. 20 in the past.

Polarization-domain-wall complexes in fiber lasers |
JOSA B, Vol. 30, Issue 1, pp. 211-218 (2013)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (989 KB)
We present a simple theoretical model that explains polarization switching in fiber ring lasers operating with a normal path-averaged dispersion and a typical intermediate level of birefringence. Such polarization dynamics, based on a type of polarization-domain-wall (PDW) structures, agree qualitatively well with our experimental observations. We also stress the complex and chaotic nature of the observed polarization-switching states. This is corroborated by detailed numerical simulations that predict the buildup of consecutive and transient PDW structures at the subnanosecond scale, which are not fully resolved experimentally.

Magnus Carlsen isn't just a phenomenon on the chess board, but increasingly so off it as well.
The UK edition of the women's magazine Cosmopolitan has published a list of the "Sexiest Men of 2013" and amongst the actors, singers and assorted other celebrities is the world's #1 ranked chess player!
Carlsen has done some modelling before for the Dutch designer clothing company G-Star Raw, and his profile in the general (non-chess) media continues to grow.
The magazine describes Carlsen as a "hottie", using the first studio shot below from Carlsen's official website as an illustration.
Is Carlsen's high media profile unambiguously good for chess, or is it a distraction? Also, is he really a hottie? Have your say in the comments!
I'm pretty sure that anybody would look "sexy" with the kind of help he receives.
He has serious cro-magnon looks. Anyone who cant see there is some savant/retard thing going on here is odd. Yes, best chess player in the world. Great job. But let's not get that confused w/ charisma or beauty.
his present age is 22.MengiseHaikam
When they vote someone "The Sexiest man of ..." they obviously always just mean "successful". To me Carlsen looks slightly retarded and in interviews, or when commenting on a game he just played, he even comes across like a dufus. He never has anything insightful to say about the game he just finished, nor does it seem he even knew what was going on. I'm always disappointed when he speaks. That was particularly apparent in the recent Candidates tournament. Even the lady talking to the players after the game seemed to have caught on to that. She would address most questions to Carlsen's opponents, almost as if she knew that talking to Carlsen would never be met with an intelligent, interesting, or insightful response.
Not sexy by any standard he.
Carlen is definitely ugly, not even close to other in this list
zapatero a sus zapatos!
No1 in chess and sex appeal . :-)
honestly? he looks like he has downs syndrome. great chess player though
Does anyone knows the present age of M.Carlsen? No doubt, this is his first time a challenge to the world champion.
The top picture is from his time at Hogwarts.I guess that explains his wizard-like abilities.
THis is really good for chess and yes he looks hot /stylish
No one since Fisher and Kasparov has anyone gained so much media attention (except Anand for India).. this is great for chess!
The way I see it, is Chess is played by many but appreciated by few, if his high profile can help people become more interested in the game, I'm for it! If it ends up with him becoming something like New England Patriots, Manchester United or Barcelona, there's no real gain for the game, but for himself.
Whenever I see him, he always looks angry. He's got a snarl about his face...
haters r gonna hate potatoe are gonna potate
this kid is really ugly it should be called the famous list
he looks like Matt Damon...

If your network admin has restricted the network from game-play, it's because he is the administrator of the network. If this is a public school (I know, I am assuming) that means that the school and the network are government property. If you can't get the network admins permission and cooperation to game on the network you shouldn't be trying to do it behind their back. The fact is that many colleges and school allow it, but within their guidelines. We (the members) cannot use Bungie.Net to discuss how to bypass security measures on other people's (individuals, companies, or government) networks. It's in the "real rules" guys. The Code of Conduct and Terms of Use that are at the bottom of every page. I'm a Network Admin (one of my many hats I wear at my "real" job) and if I found out that someone had intentionally breached my security and had been told how to do it on a gaming website? I would be on the phone to my lawyers pronto. I can't allow anyone to (unknowingly and without malice, I am hoping) to place Bungie in such a position. This thread is locked and please do NOT let me see any similar ones in the future. -

NT Pod 31: The Passion of Jesus in Matthew's Gospel
I uploaded the second of this week's four Passion Podcasts early on Monday morning. In this one, we turn to Matthew's Gospel, NT Pod 31: The Passion of Jesus in Matthew's Gospel. Apologies again for the lack of extended programme notes this week, but I am prioritizing recording, editing and releasing these back-to-back episodes.
