Pepsi and Coke in India victory

Coca-Cola and Pepsi have won their legal battle against a complete ban on selling their soft drinks in the southern Indian state of Kerala. They successfully challenged the claim that their products contain harmful chemicals. This report from John Sudworth:

The complete ban on the production and sale of Coca-Cola and Pepsi in Kerala was the toughest action taken by any Indian state in response to the allegations of pesticide contamination. It was introduced in early August following a report by an Indian campaign group, the Centre for Science and Environment, which claimed the drinks they tested contained harmful traces of chemicals.
The ban shut off a market of thirty-million potential customers in the south of the country and reinforced the negative publicity facing the soft drinks giants. But Coca-Cola and Pepsi went to court, arguing that the communist state government acted outside of its powers and that the prohibition was harsh and unfair.

The Kerala High Court has now found in favour of the two companies, ruling that only the central government has the power to ban food products. Coca-Cola and Pepsi also dispute the evidence on which the ban was based, saying they can verify that the ingredients they use conform to the highest purity standards.

Money is a good that acts as a medium of exchange in transactions. Classically it is said that money acts as a unit of account, a store of value, and a medium of exchange. Most authors find that the first two are nonessential properties that follow from the third. In fact, other goods are often better than money at being intertemporal stores of value, since most monies degrade in value over time through inflation or the overthrow of governments.
So money isn't just pieces of paper. It's a medium of exchange that facilitates trade. Suppose I have a Wayne Gretzky hockey card that I'd like to exchange for a new pair of shoes. Without the use of money, I have to find a person, or combination of people who have an extra pair of shoes to give up, and just happen to be looking for a Wayne Gretzky hockey card. more

АриаднА (EnglishTogether) все записи автора Не так давно я переводила американцев из Техаса. Заметила, что они очень часто употребляют выражение "Pass the ketchup" . Долго не могла понять, в чем же дело, спросить было немного стыдно, ведь я же переводчик. Однажды, решилась. И оказлось, что эта фраза означает "I don't care"! Но, если я не ошибаюсь, это распространено только на некоторых территориях США. Вотъ.

My heart cries, but you don't hear it.
My heart breaks, but you don't feel it.
My body longs to feel your arms around me.
My lips long to feel your kisses.
My ears long to hear you say I love you.
My eyes long to see your smile and eyes twinkle.
My life longs to have you in it.
My world longs to have you make it complete.
My body longs to feel you lie next to it.
My love longs to have you return it.
My heart will cry, my heart will break.
My body will go limp, my lips will only speak.
My ears will miss your words, my eyes will shed tears.
My life will be so lonely, my world will be so empty.
My love will go unreturned.
My heart aches as my life is turned inside out.
My mind will never forget, my heart will never let go.
I have loved you since the day I met you
But now my heart cries, and you don't hear it.

Did you know?
Your light shines so bright
It lights the way.
It takes away the shadows
And opens the path.
Can you see?
The love you spread?
The smiles you bring?
The gentle caring touch
We all love so much?
Does your heart guide you?
I think as much
You see joy and tears of happiness flow down your face
If sorrow appears, rivers of heartaches
Stream down your cheeks
Did you know?
Your light is shown for all to see.
This light is love that is given and received.
Your love is welcomed by waiting arms
Your love is light. You SHINE SO BRIGHT!!!!!

Солнышко_Claire (EnglishTogether) все записи автора Known as the pearl of the Indian Ocean, Sri Lanka lies like a teardrop, falling from the tip of India's South Coast. Once a little-known treasure, thousands of travellers stumbled upon the island by some 'fortunate accident' and so began to call Sri Lanka the Isle of Serendipity. Known for its white-sanded beaches and turquoise sea, its abundance of rare wild-life and rich foliage, its precious gem mines, its rolling hills carpeted with the best tea in the world, and its rich history and cultural heritage, Sri Lanka is a breath-taking get-away.
The pear-shaped island consists mostly of flat-to-rolling coastal plains, with mountains rising only in the south-central part. The most significant mountains in the Island are Sri Pada and Pidurutalagala, which is also known as Mt Pedro, Sri Lanka's highest point at 2,524 meters (8,281 ft). The Mahaweli River and other major rivers provide fresh water to the burgeoning foliage. The pattern of life in Sri Lanka depends directly on the availability of rainwater. The "wet zone" which consists mainly of the mountains and the southwestern part of the country, receive ample rainfall (an annual average of 250 centimeters). Most of the southeast, east, and northern parts of the country comprise the "dry zone", which receives between 1200 and 1900 mm of rain annually.
Climate
Sri Lanka's climate can be described as tropical, in other words, hot and humid. Its position between 5 and 10 north latitude endows the country with a warm climate, moderated by ocean winds and considerable moisture. The mean temperature ranges from a chilly low of 16oC in Nuwara Eliya in the Central Highlands, where even frost may occur for several days in the winter, to a high of 32o C in Trincomalee on the northeast coast. The average yearly temperature for the country as a whole ranges from 28 to 30oC.

Seasons - monsoon
Although Sri Lanka maintains its lovely warm and tropical climate year-round, the island does experience mild changes in rainfall. The rainy monsoon season takes place from October to January; during the rest of the year there is very little precipitation, and all living creatures must conserve precious moisture. The arid northwest and southeast coasts receive the least amount of rain - 600 to 1200 mm per year - concentrated within the short period of the winter monsoon. May, June and July are probably the hottest months of the year and a great time to hit the beach and soak in the sun.

I belive that the best way to learn a language is to learn poems by heart, rather than learning words only. Also, while learning texts and poems, grammar constructions are being fixed by one's memory better. Here is my favourite poem by Kipling:

IF

If you can keep your head when all about you
      Are losing theirs and blaming it on you,
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you,
      But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting,
      Or being lied about, don't deal in lies,
Or being hated, don't give way to hating,
      And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise:
If you can dream -- and not make dreams your master;
      If you can think -- and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
      And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
      Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,
      And stoop and build'em up with worn-out tools:
If you can make one heap of all your winnings
      And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings
      And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew
      To serve your turn long after they are gone,
And so hold on when there is nothing in you
      Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!"
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue,
      Or walk with Kings -- nor lose the common touch,
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you,
      If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute
      With sixty seconds' worth of distance run,
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it,
      And -- which is more -- you'll be a Man, my son!

Солнышко_Claire (EnglishTogether) все записи автора Sri Lanka is known for its diverse cultures and scenery. An Island with an area of 65,525 sq.km in the Indian Ocean is today the largest exporter of tea in the world with a market share of 21%. Sri Lanka, though relatively small in size, is the world's fourth largest tea producer behind India, China and Kenya. It produces over 310 millions kgr of tea and has a share of approximately 10% of the global tea production. We have the ability to produce an array of teas from different agro climatic zones - Uva, Nuwara Eliya, Uda Pusselawa, Kandy and Ruhuna which are unique to each agro climatic district. The flavour and aroma of Sri Lanka's teas are as distinctive and unique as the climate and geography that give rise to them.
Russia continues to be the largest market for Sri Lankan Tea. Russia records a total of 79.7 million kgs in 2006 as against 71.1 million kgs in 2005 with a market share of 41.6%. Direct export from Sri Lanka during the year 2006 was 59.2 million kgs and showed an increase of 10% in volume and 15% increase in value terms. The potential for Ceylon tea to make further inroads into the Russian market is extremely high as consumers in Russia have rated Ceylon teas as the best quality orthodox tea.
