Hello, Sweetie

Our poor Doctor. He’s so harangued by River Song. LOL. Even the brief, surprise greeting of, “Hello, Sweetie,” elicits such a hangdog response that you just want to put your arm around The Doctor and tell him that everything will be okay. Being out of the loop, I had no idea there was a current running through fandom with theories about River. I’m pretty bad to take a plot point at face value and just let the story play out, but now I’m dying to get into the conspiracy theorists’ minds.

That’s the big difference with the new series; it’s smarter. Certainly not to disparage RTD’s helm, which was still largely better than anything else on television, but the nuances now are just a bit more mature and cerebral. Perhaps the least cerebral clue, as I mentioned before, is “The Crack” and though I did not spot the crack in the episode, it’s FINALLY being seen by The Doctor in the preview for next week’s episode. Next week’s episode, by the way, looks to be full of excitement, and motion, and intrigue.

In what I consider to be the mark of greatness for a show, a Twitter friend of mine is just getting into Doctor Who, and I’m proud to have him jump on board with Eleven and Amy. Welcome to the greatest show on Earth. Or Gallifrey. Or Raxacoricofallapatorius. Or, well, you get the picture. With The Doctor and the TARDIS, anything is possible!

  4. July 20 (Reuters) – Philip Morris International beat analysts’ expectations for quarterly profit and raised
    the lower end of its annual earnings forecast, as tobacco
    and labor costs ease, and demand remains robust for its smokeless Zyn and
    IQOS products.

    In December last year, Philip Morris acquired Hay-maker Swedish
    Match for a share of the popular smokeless and spitless nicotine pouches as younger customers
    increasingly prefer alternatives to traditional combustible cigarettes.

    Shipment volume growth for Zyn in the U.S. jumped more than 50% in the three months ended
    June 30, the company said on Thursday.

    From mid-2024, Philip Morris will have the sole rights to market and sell IQOS products – which heat cigarettes instead of
    burning them – in the U.S., as per its deal with Altria Group .

    Total IQOS users at the end of June were up by 1.4 million from March, the company
    said, taking the total number to 27.2 million.

    Its second-quarter adjusted profit per share of $1.60 beat analysts’ average estimates for a profit of $1.47, as per Refinitiv data.

    Net revenue rose 14.5% to $8.97 billion, topping estimates of $8.65 billion.

    The 176-year old company is also benefiting from higher prices for its
    traditional combustible cigarettes, after supply-chain snags inflated freight and raw-material costs last year.

    Philip Morris now expects these pressures
    to ease in the second half of the year, allowing the company to raise the lower-end of its full-year profit forecast.

    The company boosted the lower end to $6.13 per share from $6.10, while
    retaining the upper end at $6.22.
