The Original Article was published on 24 July 2013

This article [1] has been retracted by Professor Ravi P Agarwal, Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Inequalities and Applications.

After publication it became clear that the paper had been submitted without the consent, knowledge and acknowledgement of Betul Acar.

The authors Ayse Maden, Ahmet Cevik, Ismail Cangul and Kinkar C Das acknowledge that they failed to obtain agreement with Betul Acar or to acknowledge her work, resulting in an unfair representation of her ideas and thoughts. All those involved have agreed to this retraction.
