Time Zone Table. Click here for a World Map of Time Zones from the USNO. In the new NOAA solar calculators, we have changed our time zone definition to conform with the standard, which is the number of hours to add to UTC to get local time. Please note that if you use the old calculators (those without the Google Maps interface), you will need to reverse the sign (+7 becomes -7) from the numbers in this table.

JosÃ© Gabriel TÃºpac Amaru (March 19, 1742 â May 18, 1781) â known as TÃºpac Amaru II â was a leader of an indigenous uprising in 1780 against the Spanish in Peru. Although unsuccessful, he later became a mythical figure in the Peruvian struggle for independence and indigenous rights movement and an inspiration to a myriad of causes in Peru.
Among his fans especially, he is remembered simply as âTupacâ. The names âTupac Amaruâ and âShakurâ mean Shining Serpent or Royal Serpent in Quechua and Thankful (to God) in Arabic, respectively. The name âTupac Amaruâ comes from TÃºpac Amaru II, grandson of the last Sapa Inca (TÃºpac Amaru). Contrary to popular belief, Tupac Amaru was not his first given name (nor one he chose himself); his mother re-named him shortly after birth and had his birth certificate changed to reflect the name by which we know him.
