OpenID Ελλάς Irn-Bru turns back time to find its fizz after sales slump Irn-Bru is turning the clock back more than a century, months after warning of plummeting profits. Drinks maker AG Barr is to launch a limited edition new version it claimed was based on an original recipe from 1901. It comes three months after it warned profits were being hit by customers turning away from its reduced-sugar drinks. The firm said Irn-Bru 1901 - to hit shelves in December - was made from a handwritten recipe which had been "stored deep in the company archives for over 100 years". Without caffeine, the drink is sweetened with sugar and "does have a frothy head on its gingery fizz". Robin Barr, who unearthed the recipe, said: "The 1901 recipe has aged beautifully over the last 118 years. "For a limited time, we'll be producing a premium 'old and unimproved' Irn-Bru 1901 just as it was enjoyed by our first fans. "This is Irn-Bru as you've never tasted it. This has led to a backlash among some customers, who have complained about the new tastes.
OpenID OpenID is an open standard and decentralized authentication protocol. Promoted by the non-profit OpenID Foundation, it allows users to be authenticated by co-operating sites (known as Relying Parties or RP) using a third party service, eliminating the need for webmasters to provide their own ad hoc login systems, and allowing users to login to multiple unrelated websites without having to have a separate identity and password for each.[1] Users create accounts by selecting an OpenID identity provider, and then use those accounts to sign onto any website which accepts OpenID authentication. The OpenID protocol does not rely on a central authority to authenticate a user's identity. Moreover, neither services nor the OpenID standard may mandate a specific means by which to authenticate users, allowing for approaches ranging from the common (such as passwords) to the novel (such as smart cards or biometrics).

Pizza Hut Debuts Stuffed Cheez-It Pizza If you've ever wondered what a mashup of the popular Cheez-It cracker and pizza would be like, you can wonder no more. Pizza Hut debuted a limited-time menu offering that does exactly that with the Stuffed Cheez-It Pizza, turning the cheesy cracker into an epic delivery vehicle for actual cheese that may make you completely rethink the boundaries between meal and snack. According to CNBC, the Stuffed Cheez-It Pizza consists of four large pizza crust squares that have been infused with the sharp cheddar flavor of Cheez-Its that is stuffed with either cheese or a cheese and pepperoni combination. The sauce -- a marinara dipping sauce -- is served on the side. The end result is a menu item that looks, smells, and taste just like a giant Cheez-It, just with the bonus taste of pizza as well. "I always thought it was cheese flavoring, but it was really cheese that is baked into their crackers," Radley explained. What do you think?

TCP/IP model The Internet protocol suite is the computer networking model and set of communications protocols used on the Internet and similar computer networks. It is commonly known as TCP/IP, because its most important protocols, the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) and the Internet Protocol (IP), were the first networking protocols defined in this standard. Often also called the Internet model, it was originally also known as the DoD model, because the development of the networking model was funded by DARPA, an agency of the United States Department of Defense. TCP/IP provides end-to-end connectivity specifying how data should be packetized, addressed, transmitted, routed and received at the destination. The TCP/IP model and related protocol models are maintained by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
