2010 Côte-Rôtie, Côte Blonde, Domaine René Rostaing
Red | Ready, but will improve | Code: 10713 | 2010 | France > Rhône > Côte-Rôtie | Syrah/Shiraz | Medium Bodied, Dry | 13.0 % alcohol
More powerful than its siblings, the Côte Blonde is the longest lived member of the Rostaing family. From 80 year old vines, with clay, iron and gneiss soils, this wine is aged in barrique rather than demi-muid, its structure thus differing from the Landonne; the soil lending more minerality and a touch less acidity, the wood affording a creamy texture in support of the rich blackberry and cassis fruit. This is a wine of rare complexity and elegance, the quintessence of Côte Rôtie in short.
Simon Field MW, BBR Buyer, February 2012
M Rostaing, or RR as we affectionately call him, is something of an enigma, a man giving all semblance of being a classicist, yet whose winemaking philosophy, with its use of rotary fermenters and pragmatic approach to destemming, is far from the old-school. His vocabulary, however, is pleasingly old-fashioned; he likes the 2010 vintage, as there is 'une belle rigueur', describing it as 'Jansenist' in temperament. The classicism now extends to the names of the wines; the wine formerly known as 'Cuvée Classique' has been renamed Ampodium, the Roman name for the town of Ampuis, and the location of his winery.

The Wine Advocate
The Wine Advocate - Truly blockbuster stuff, and a wine that will compete with the 99 when its at full maturity, the 2010 Cte Rtie Cte Blonde gave up a spectacular array of sweet red and black raspberry, cassis, violets and underbrush. A full-bodied, impeccably balanced, yet concentrated and massive Cte Rtie, it has world-class tannin quality, a stacked mid-palate and blockbuster length. It will need another decade to show some maturity, and hold nicely through 2040.
Jeb Dunnuck - 28/02/2015
Parker - A wine of great intensity, the 2010 Cote Rotie Cote Blonde exhibits abundant notes of flowers, raspberry liqueur, kirsch, cedar and forest floor, silky tannins and a long finish. It should drink well for 10-15 years, as the silkiness of this wine is incredibly appealing. Rene Rostaings elegant style is well-displayed in both 2010 and the riper, more fleshy, exuberant 2009 vintage. Always the sexiest wine in Rostaings cellar is the Cote Rotie Cote Blonde. It includes 3-4% co-fermented Viognier and is always the most seamless wine resembling haute couture. (Robert Parker - Wine Advocate #197 Oct 2011)

The Grape
A noble black grape variety grown particularly in the Northern Rhône where it produces the great red wines of Hermitage, Cote Rôtie and Cornas, and in Australia where it produces wines of startling depth and intensity. Reasonably low yields are a crucial factor for quality as is picking at optimum ripeness. Its heartland, Hermitage and Côte Rôtie, consists of 270 hectares of steeply terraced vineyards producing wines that brim with pepper, spices, tar and black treacle when young. After 5-10 years they become smooth and velvety with pronounced fruit characteristics of damsons, raspberries, blackcurrants and loganberries.
It is now grown extensively in the Southern Rhône where it is blended with Grenache and Mourvèdre to produce the great red wines of Châteauneuf du Pape and Gigondas amongst others. Its spiritual home in Australia is the Barossa Valley, where there are plantings dating as far back as 1860. Australian Shiraz tends to be sweeter than its Northern Rhône counterpart and the best examples are redolent of new leather, dark chocolate, liquorice, and prunes and display a blackcurrant lusciousness.
South African producers such as Eben Sadie are now producing world- class Shiraz wines that represent astonishing value for money.
The Region
Côte-Rôtie is one of the most famous of the northern Rhône appellations, with some single vineyard cuvées now selling for the same prices as First Growth Bordeaux. It is the northernmost outpost of the Syrah grape.Côte-Rôtie translates as 'roasted hillside', as the south-facing slopes are exposed to the maximum-possible sunlight. Vines have been planted here since Roman times, although the appellation was only created in 1940. Today it covers 500 hectares, with 276 hectares of vineyards stretched across eight kilometres.
Phylloxera devastated vineyards in the late 1800s and Côte-Rôtie's fortunes remained in the doldrums for another century. After the War, a farmer would receive double the price for a kilo of apricots as for a kilo of grapes, hence vineyards were grubbed up and wine production became increasingly smaller.
It has only really been recognised as a top-quality wine-producing area since the 1970s, with Guigal being the main impetus behind its revival. The two best slopes, Côte Brune and Côte Blonde, rise steeply behind Ampuis and overlook the river. The Côte Brune wines are much firmer and more masculine (the soils are clay and ironstone), whereas the Côte Blonde makes wines with more finesse and elegance due to its light, sandy-limestone soil. Both the Côte Brune and Côte Blonde vineyards rise to 1,000 feet, with a gradient of 30 to 50 degrees.
The wines are made from the Syrah grape, however up to 20 percent of Viogner can be used in the blend, adding finesse, elegance and floral characteristics to the wine. Viognier ripens more quickly than Syrah and the appellation rules stipulate that the grapes must be added to the fermentation – rather than blended later. The best Côte-Rôtie are very deep in colour, tannic and spicy, and need 10 years to evolve and develop.
There are nearly 60 official vineyards (lieux-dits); the best-known are: La Mouline, La Chatillonne (Vidal-Fleury, owned by Guigal) and La Garde (Rostaing) in Côte Blonde; La Viallière, (Rostaing), La Landonne (Guigal, Rostaing) and La Turque (Guigal) in Côte Brune.
Styles vary from heavily-extracted tannic wines which need many years to soften through to lighter, supple and less-structured wines which do not require extended bottle ageing. The most famous wines of Côte-Rôtie are Guigal's three single-vineyard cuvées: La Mouline, La Turque and La Landonne. These are aged in new wood for 48 months, and demand for them amongst connoisseurs and collectors is significant, leading to prices sometimes comparable to Bordeaux First Growths.

Syria: Should Britain get involved?
There have been acres of newsprint devoted to the increasingly violent conflict in Syria. One such article appeared in the Daily Telegraph detailing how many Western troops could be deployed into Syria. A paper written by an influential defence think tank argued that as many as 75,000 troops would be needed with an initial deployment of 30,000
Now it might be that Western troops may have to be involved but the question should be how these forces will be formed and who will be involved. The USA is usually the biggest contributor to these international forces. This is because of the amount of money and military hardware the U.S. is able to devote.
If you look at the National Security Strategy under George W Bush it argued "the United States has long maintained the option of pre-emptive actions to counter a sufficient threat to our national security…..to forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries the United States will if necessary act pre –emptively" . This meant that US forces were sent into action where there was just a sniff of a threat against the United States. This pre emptive strategy lead to the disastrous Iraq war in 2003.
If we fast-forward this to the National Security Strategy under Barack Obama we see a marked change, his national security strategy will put the emphasis "on diplomacy with war as a last resort" . We have seen this in action regarding the Syrian crisis with the United States and Great Britain consistently using the United Nations to come with a plan to end it bit which have been consistently blocked by the Russians on the Security Council.
This has naturally led to the talk of Western forces becoming involved in the conflict. The US has said, "It will not intervene a message that was carried to London last week by Tom Donilon the National Security Adviser". This therefore leaves Great Britain this author would argue in the unenviable position of having to be the ones who will put together the lion's share of the force that will go into Syria. This would mean that we would have troops committed to Iraq, Afghanistan and Syria if it gets to that point.
At the time of writing Britain has committed to "an extra five million pounds worth of aid to Syria's opposition……Foreign Secretary William Hague insisted that the U.K. would only supply equipment to those who are not directly involved in the fighting"
There is a note of caution which needs to be sounded. Syria is riven along sectarian lines, no matter who overthrows the Assad regime it will not bring peace in fact in this author's opinion it will only bring more conflict which has the potential to spill over into the wider region given that both Iran and Saudi Arabia and Iran are funding either side.
Should Britain get involved in Syria? We have already got involved but this is as far as the support should go. We should continue to try to use the diplomatic channels but leave the Arab League and the Syrians to work out a lasting peace deal.

A DIY wedding can save you a lot of money, but it can also cause you a lot of stress. Even if you don't do everything yourself, many couples decide to do some things themselves. It allows them to save a bit of cash and add a personal touch to their special day. The question is, what should you DIY and what's better off left to the professionals?
Professional: Scheduling the Day
You probably think that it's pretty easy for you to schedule everything, and decide what will be happening and when. It's not as easy as you might hope it would be, but it's also not the most complicated thing in the world. You probably will be involved in deciding how the day will progress, no matter what you do. However, the one thing you don't want to do is to be in charge of scheduling on your wedding day. You have enough to worry about, without running around and trying to make sure everything is happening at the right time. Hire a coordinator instead.
DIY: Stationery
One of the first things that you're likely to do for your wedding is send out save the date cards or invitations. The good thing about these is that even when you choose a professional route, you can still do a bit of DIY. You can either make your stationery from scratch (try to keep it simple), or you can use a website that will allow you to customize everything. This is an easy way to put your personal touch on your stationery while also saving money and receiving a professional finish.
Professional: Flowers
Flowers are everywhere at a wedding, from the venue to the bridal party bouquets and the groomsmen's boutonnieres. It could be easy to convince yourself when looking at flower arrangements, that you could easily do it yourself. However, flower arranging is more difficult than you think. Not only that but if you do it yourself, you need to deal with collecting and arranging your flowers at the last minute. You don't need that just before you get married. Use a professional florist if you want to have all of your flowers ready on time.
DIY: Decorations
If you want to help with decorating, making some decorations could be a lot easier for you to handle. They're not going to perish before the big day, so you can make them in advance. Even paper decorations can look charming if you choose the right design. In particular, creating decorations for the ceremony is a good way to save some money. The ceremony won't last long, so spending a lot of money on decorating might not be a priority for you. It's easy to create some baskets of flowers or buy some candles (or LED lights) and decorate to your liking.
Professional: Cake
Even if you're a seasoned baker, who has taken on similar challenges, who wants to spend the days before their wedding making their cake? Baking and decorating a cake that's big enough to feed all your guests can take a long time, and then you have to get it to the venue. If you're determined to bake your own cake, you'll have to be prepared for a lot of stress. Using a professional is much easier, and you can still customize it to your liking.
DIY: Party Favors
If you want to provide a sweet treat for your guests, doing it with your party favors is a much easier DIY option. It's not difficult to put together a few little gifts, whether you choose candy or something else. You can turn inexpensive items into something a bit more special just by adding a couple of your own details. For example, a candle can be a lot more presentable just by putting it in a glass holder and tying a ribbon around it. You can get your favors ready long before the wedding, so it won't stress you out.
Professional: Outfits
Obviously, you want everyone to look their best on your wedding day. Some people do decide to make their own wedding outfits, which you could do over an extended period before your wedding. If you feel confident about it, it might be something you choose to do. However, unless you're an experienced sewer, it's not a great idea. If you want custom outfits, you can have a dress made or shop Chookhare.com for custom suits. There are some experienced professionals who can give you want you want so you can look perfect for your wedding.
DIY: Accessories
One thing you might find a bit easier to DIY is your accessories. It's not as difficult to sew some pocket squares or even make a necklace as it is to make an entire dress or suit. If you want to make your own wedding jewelry, one of the easiest ways to do it is to learn to thread beads and choose some that you like. Another great option is to take a workshop. You can even make your own wedding rings under the guidance of an expert.
Professional and DIY: Photography
A lot of people will warn you not to DIY your photography. While it's true that you probably want to avoid only having DIY photography, it doesn't mean you can't mix it up a bit. If you're trying to save some money, consider having a professional photographer for the ceremony and perhaps a few photos afterward. For the rest of the day, you might consider something else. Maybe you have a friend who's learning photography or does it for a hobby who you can trust (check their work first). Or you might just want to rely on your guests to take some photos. You'd be surprised how many accidentally excellent photos your guests can take. And, let's face it, do you really need hundreds of professional photos of everyone dancing and getting drunk?
You can make your wedding special by choosing to DIY some of the elements. Just be careful about what you DIY and what you entrust to a professional.

The Legislature has been arguing over assignment of benefits reform for years, to no avail. Tuesday, Tampa Republican James Grant found out why — the hard way.
The lesson was delivered by the House Insurance & Banking Subcommittee, which defeated by a single vote Grant's bid to resolve the issue by boosting consumer protections and requiring the collection of data to allow policymakers to get a firmer hand on the problem.
The committee opted instead for an earlier draft of HB 1421, sponsored by Grant and Rene Plasencia, a Republican from Orlando. It passed, 14-1.
"You have a challenge of landing an issue that has multiple stakeholders on both sides. We tried to put something together that would have been the middle lane between the House and Senate proposals," Grant said following the vote.
"We heard from people on both sides of that lane that they would prefer no bill or they would prefer the underlying bill," he said. Now, "we're going to continue working with all the stakeholders and committee members to see if we can find common ground."
A major bone of contention was attorney fees. The bill as adopted would link fees to pre-litigation offers of judgment — if the plaintiff wins more than the insurer offers, the insurer pays; if less, the insurer collects.
The bill also requires that policyholders receive notice if a contractor files suit, and an opportunity to withdraw from the agreement without penalty.
Grant argued that would simply encourage unscrupulous contractors to spread out statewide in search of homeowners willing to sue.
He was unwilling to risk that.
"The question is, do we wrestle into the world of the one-way attorney fees, or do we simply try to make all the fixes (in his amendment) to reform the bad actors," Grant said.
The amendment took a beating during testimony — contractors, insurers, attorneys, and business interests, for the most part, preferred the original language or nothing at all.
What might have killed the amendment, in the end, was uncertainty over whether it would lower insurance rates.
"If this isn't going to lower rates, I'm not sure what we're doing," Tampa Democrat Sean Shaw said.
AOBs are contracts in which a policyholder signs away all rights to a claim in exchange for a quick repair. They've been on the upsurge in water damage claims, but they also apply to car and health insurance claims.
But they can be abused, leading to shoddy or inflated repairs and frivolous lawsuits, according to insurers and the state Office of Insurance Regulation. Trial attorneys argue lawsuits are reactions to insurers that reject claims or offer inadequate settlements.

Saint Cloud's largest mechanical engineering school is Saint Cloud State University. In 2010, Saint Cloud State University graduated approximately 26 students with credentials in mechanical engineering.
A total of 26 students graduated with credentials in mechanical engineering from mechanical engineering schools in Saint Cloud in 2010. Tuition in 2009 at Saint Cloud's mechanical engineering schools was $16,430 per year for instate students and $23,945 per year for out of state students.
In addition to tuition costs, you should plan on spending an average of $1,200 for books and supplies each year, while enrolled in a mechanical engineering program in Saint Cloud. And if you live on campus at one of the Saint Cloud-based mechanical engineering schools, you will have an added expense of $6,016 per year, on average, for room and board. Students who live at home can cut this cost down to approximately $10,414.
Many mechanical engineering graduates choose to work as mechanical engineers after graduation. If you choose to follow that path and remain in Saint Cloud, your job prospects are not very good. The government projects that the number of mechanical engineers in Saint Cloud will decrease by -1% by the year 2018. This anticipated change is slower than the projected nationwide trend for mechanical engineers.

Heartland Institute Responds to Occupy Protests of Climate Conference
If I could make this up, I'd be standing on a stage instead….
If you didn't read my column about Heartland Institute and their obsession with Ted Kaczynski, here is the encore, but without Ted.
President Obama's Chi-town has been busy this past week. While the G8 retreated from Chicago to the Camp David presidential retreat, NATO stepped in to face the Occupy protesters.
Almost-but-not-quite-lost in the news is that Heartland Institute is holding its annual climate change conference to coincide with NATO. Must have thought they needed protection from protesters because here is their press release about the "disrupters." Note that they pinpointed where the conference is taking place, in case the protesters get lost….
May 22, 2012 – A NATO Summit advisory issued at 8:15 a.m. today indicates that Occupy Chicago plans a protest designed to disrupt The Heartland Institute's Seventh International Conference on Climate Change at the Hilton Chicago Hotel.
A left-wing advocacy group called "Forecast the Facts" is also planning a protest of the conference.
The following statement from Joseph Bast, president of The Heartland Institute, may be used for attribution:
"Is man-made global warming a fact, or a failed hypothesis? Does the evidence show that climate change is primarily a natural phenomena, and likely to have positive effects on human health and the environment, or does it show a major human effect and that harms are likely to outweigh benefits?
"These are the questions being addressed at the global warming conference these protesters are trying to disrupt today. The Seventh International Conference on Climate Change is a meeting of some 300 people who share an interest in debating the causes and consequences of climate change. The speakers include some of the world's leading experts on the causes and consequences of climate change, former astronauts and NASA scientists, and political leaders.
"Whether knowingly or not, these protesters are trying to stifle academic freedom and free speech. They are trying to shout down people whose only offense is to question a political dogma called man-made global warming.
"Sixty think tanks and civic and business organizations have joined The Heartland Institute in cohosting this conference, the seventh such conference Heartland has organized in five years. More than 3,000 people have attended these conferences. Hundreds of scientists from scores of countries have attended.
"We are part of the ongoing debate over the causes and consequences of climate change, whether radical environmentalists and their allies in the media choose report that or not. We encourage people to review the extensive research and commentary on climate change that appears on our Web site, as well as videos of presentations made at the current and past ICCCs.
"Make up your own mind. Join the debate."
The following statement from James M. Taylor, senior fellow for environment policy The Heartland Institute, may be used for attribution:
"These are the last-gasp efforts of left-wing extremists who have been defeated in the scientific debate and the court of public opinion.
"We reserved several dozen speaker slots for prominent warmists to discuss and debate climate change issues at the Seventh International Conference on Climate Change. The alarmists are instead sending rabble-rousers and the professionally unemployed to make their best scientific arguments. I suspect the scientists speaking at the conference know a little more about climate change than Occupy Climate Science."

I attended the conference. I'm an old-school environmentalist: clean air, water, soil. The CO2 hypothesis is crap– too many variables on earth's temps. Heartland–actually, the astronauts and other scientists presenting @ the Hilton/Chicago did a good job. I wish my old green friends could have joined me. Sorry– I'm with Heartland on this one.
Curious isn't it, "Ted", that your identical sock-puppet comment is showing up in a variety of places. Name one credible scientist at Heartland's terminal denial-palooza.
Hey Ted, why did you not stay in home-school? You could have learned something.
If not for Heartland, I may not have learned of Mann's mistakes in his hockey stick graph, nor of alternative theories like solar/cosmic ray/cloud nucleation CERN is studying, or of uncertainty of earth's albedo, or of the millions of people dying every year due to lack of fossil fuel power and Indoor Air Pollution. I may not have learned of the dozens of mistakes in Gore's movie, or the millions that he and a handful of scientists have raked in with a theory that is not being proven out. I may not have learned of the record low temps set last year in the Southern Hemisphere, or growing polar ice, or that polar bear populations are booming. In short, I wouldnt have the basis for my conclusion on AGW other than parroting my favorite pundit or friendgroup's opinions.

A/B tests can be conducted for every element to discover which version drives the highest conversions.

Either one of my children has been channelling his inner Uri Geller using the power of the mind to transfigure spoons, or he is just bent on destruction. Sorry, bad pun.
And yes, I'm sure it's a he. My daughter is devoted primarily to the destruction of electronic devices, also any overpriced clothing required for school activities.
I did not realize in my blissful, pre-child state how much damage children can cause. It's a little like housing a troop of circus bears that have gotten into the fermented honey. They lurch around leaving debris and broken items in their wake. But they're clever bears. They never admit to these petty crimes, nor will they turn on each other, a trait I'd admire if it weren't counter to my best interest.
If I believed in such things as poltergeists and supernatural phenomena, I might be afraid. Very afraid. Much of this destruction could be interpreted as violent and threatening. Crushed iPhones. A rather large hole in my bedroom wall. Dirty footprints near the ceiling in the hallway. A hunting knife stuck in an oak tree in the yard. Were I a superstitious person, I'd be listening for the hushed, bodiless voice whispering, "GET OUT."
But instead, I do what every parent does – persevere and repair the damage. Few of these crimes are heart-breaking, and little of the damage irreversible.
Although, come to think of it, when I glance at the pretty, little pine tree in our yard whose head was unceremoniously chopped off with a pruning shears I'm a little sad. That tree has decades of crooked, unsightly growth ahead of it and no foliage deserves that.
Feel free to vent – worst damage done to your home or property? And yes, damage to automobiles does count.

text: Psychotherapy Print Unconditional Positive Regard in Psychology By Kendra Cherry facebook twitter Kendra Cherry, MS, is an author, educational consultant, and speaker focused on helping students learn about psychology. Learn about our editorial policy Kendra Cherry Updated on August 18, 2019 Tetra Images/Getty Images More in Psychology Psychotherapy Basics Student Resources History and Biographies Theories Phobias Emotions Sleep and Dreaming Unconditional positive regard is a term used by humanist psychologist Carl Rogers to describe a technique used in his non-directive, client-centered therapy. How does this work? According to Rogers, unconditional positive regard involves showing complete support and acceptance of a person no matter what that person says or does. The therapist accepts and supports the client, no matter what they say or do, placing no conditions on this acceptance. That means the therapist supports the client, whether they are expressing "good" behaviors and emotions or "bad" ones. A Closer Look "It means caring for the client, but not in a possessive way or in such a way as simply to satisfy the therapist's own needs," explained in Rogers in a 1957 article published in the Journal of Consulting Psychology. "It means caring for the client as a separate person, with permission to have his own feelings, his own experiences." Rogers believed that it was essential for therapists to show unconditional positive regard to their clients. He also suggested that individuals who don't have this type of acceptance from people in their life can eventually come to hold negative beliefs about themselves. "People also nurture our growth by being accepting—by offering us what Rogers called unconditional positive regard," explains David G. Meyers in his book Psychology: Eighth Edition in Modules. "This is an attitude of grace, an attitude that values us even knowing our ailings. It is a profound relief to drop our pretenses, confess our worst feelings, and discover that we are still accepted. In a good marriage, a close family, or an intimate friendship, we are free to be spontaneous without fearing the loss of others' esteem." Unconditional Positive Regard and Self-Worth Rogers believed that people have a need for both self-worth and positive regard for other people. How people think about themselves and how they value themselves plays a major role in well-being. People with a stronger sense of self-worth are also more confident and motivated to pursue their goals and to work toward self-actualization because they believe that they are capable of accomplishing their goals. During these early years, children learn that they are loved and accepted by their parents and other family members. This contributes to feelings of confidence and self-worth. Unconditional positive regard from caregivers during the early years of life can help contribute to feelings of self-worth as people grow older. As people age, the regard of others plays more of a role in shaping a person's self-image. Rogers believed that when people experience conditional positive regard, where approval hinges solely on the individual's actions, incongruence may occur. Incongruence happens when a person's vision of their ideal self is out of step with what they experience in real-life. Congruent individuals will have a lot of overlap between their self-image and their notion of their ideal self. An incongruent individual will have little overlap between his or her self-image and ideal self. Rogers also believed that receiving unconditional positive regard could help people become congruent once more. By providing unconditional positive regard to their clients, Rogers believed that therapists could help people become more congruent and achieve better psychological well-being. How Self-Actualized People Get Needs Met Putting Positive Regard Into Practice Is it really possible for therapists to offer unconditional positive regard to each and every client? Many suggest that the answer is no. However, as John and Rita Sommers-Flanagan note, it is possible for therapists to try to feel such regard toward their clients. They also note that such acceptance does not constitute permissiveness or an endorsement of all behaviors. Natalie Rogers, the daughter of Carl Rogers, later explained that her father believed that while any thoughts and feelings are okay, not all behaviors are acceptable. Understanding the Dynamics of a Fear Response While unconditional positive regard is a cornerstone of client-centered therapy, it isn't always easy to put into practice. Imagine a situation in which a therapist is working with a sex offender. In their book Counseling and Psychotherapy Theories in Context and Practice, Sommers-Flanagan offers some advice to practitioners who encounter such difficult situations. Rather than focusing on the behaviors themselves, the authors recommend seeking positive regard for the suffering and fears that such behaviors might represent. "Rogers firmly believed every person was born with the potential to develop in positive, loving ways," they suggest. "When doing person-centered therapy, you become their next chance, maybe their last chance, to be welcomed, understood, and accepted. Your acceptance may create the conditions needed for change." 3 Key Qualities to Look for in a Client-Centered Therapist Was this page helpful? Thanks for your feedback!

Uber has introduced a motorcycle taxi service for customers in Bangkok.
GrabTaxi, an Uber competitor, recently started offering GrabBike in the Thai capital, forcing Uber to offer a similar service for the cities congested streets.
This isn't the first time Uber has tried a motorcycle service. In 2012, the company launched a moto-taxi option in Paris for a few weeks as a short-term experiment. That program never went into mass practice.
"Two-wheel transportation is a form of mobility for millions and millions of people," Uber spokesman Karun Arya says.
Customers can request a motorbike from the standard Uber app in three central Bangkok neighborhoods. The driver will show up on their motorcycle with a helmet for the passenger.
"Motorcycles are part of the commuting culture in Thailand," Douglas Ma, Uber's head of Asia expansion, said in a statement.
Uber believes the new service will "create tens of thousands of flexible work opportunities for Thais."
Fares start at 10 baht (28 US cents), and cost an additional 3.50 baht for each kilometer and 0.85 baht per minute for every ride. Making the Uber motorcycle option a cheaper form of travel than standard Uber fares.
The service launched on Wednesday and some customers said they were able to hail a motorcycle in minutes, while others said they couldn't find an available ride.
The taxi-hailing app plans to roll out motorcycle in other areas in the future. There are more than a dozen Southeast Asian locations, including Bali, Ho Chi Minh City and Singapore, that could benefit from the program.

The Best of the Drupal 8 Beta
Just last week, the Drupal community reached a major milestone with the first beta release of Drupal 8.
This is a critical step forward for anyone who interacts with Drupal because of the huge amount of potential in what many see as one of the biggest changes the platform has ever seen.
These changes affect Drupal at every level, from core components that handle some of Drupal's lowest level functionality to how content can be distributed, managed and maintained. We've chosen what we think are some of the most exciting features that will make Drupal an even more powerful asset for any business.
Device Agnostic to the Core.
In an age where you can never predict how, where and on what type of device users will interact with your site, a mobile-first, future-friendly approach is key. With Drupal 8, all of the core themes, including the administration panel, have been completely revamped to be fully responsive. These layouts will make navigating the backend of any site a breeze on anything from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy to an Xbox One.
This might come in handy next time you're at happy hour showing off that new landing page the marketing team just pushed live, and your boss finds a typo on the page. Rather than mumbling something about making a note to fix it first thing tomorrow, nonchalantly login to your fully responsive admin interface on your phone, make the copy change and put your phone back in your pocket because you'll need an extra hand to hold the beer that will be coming your way.
An Authoring Experience Tailored to Authors.
With in-place editing and an integrated WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor, content authors can focus on what they really care about. Allowing site admins to interact with content in its native environment takes the fuss out of making small edits and makes it easier to create easy-to-understand permissions silos.
Dries himself lead the creation of a Drupal distribution called Spark to demonstrate the power of this type of authoring experience. We highly recommend spinning up a quick test environment at simplytest.me to truly understand the power of this project and the potential it has to completely change how sites are administered.
Configuration and Code. Together at Last.
A challenge unique to developing on a CMS like Drupal is maintaining and deploying site updates that require both code and configuration (point and click in the Drupal UI) changes. Just about every marketing manager has wanted to push a new landing page live that day, only to find out it's a six hour task.
Drupal 8's Configuration Management Initiative, or CMI for short, seeks to give us a way to make configuration changes once and put them in code, making it easy to standardize and automate deployment across environments. For marketing folks, this means less botched deployments and hours of troubleshooting down the drain because that one little box was left unchecked.
Distribute Your Content, On Your Terms.
Do everything from build mobile apps that use Drupal as a content management framework to expose content via JSON and XML with built-in web services. This makes Drupal even more versatile and a perfect candidate to truly be a hub of marketing efforts. While this isn't necessarily new to Drupal (check out the fantastic Services module for Drupal 7), it is new to Drupal core and is a great representation of how Drupal is truly adapting to become much more than just a tool to power your website.
The Talent Pool Just Got Bigger.
Drupal has often been referred to as an island in the PHP community due to its reliance on programming 'The Drupal Way.' Drupal 8 embraces industry standards and features drastically overhauled object-oriented code and incorporates components from the Symfony framework. This means it will be easier for Drupal developers to interact with PHP code outside of the community and make Drupal a more attractive choice for PHP developers who may not have any specific Drupal experience.
That all sounds great, when can I use it?
In web and software development, the term 'beta' can mean anything from 'use with caution, not for production' to 'this product is an MVP, don't blame us for the bugs.' In the case of Drupal 8, a beta release is an important landmark because both the data model and critical APIs are considered stable. Without getting into the technical details, a stable data model and critical APIs are vital to the forward momentum of the Drupal 8 project because these are what testers and module maintainers most need to continue making progress with finding and resolving critical bugs and porting modules to the new version. With that disclaimer out of the way, we're hoping to be building sites on a fully-functional Drupal 8 by summer of 2015.
Should I upgrade?
Currently, the Drupal community supports two major release channels, meaning that when Drupal 8 is released, Drupal 6 will no longer be supported or receive security updates. If you're running a website on Drupal 6, it's not a bad time to start planning what a migration might look like for you. However, Drupal 7 will continue to be supported by the community until Drupal 9 is released. On top of that, a good bit of the functionality from Drupal 8 has been backported to Drupal 7 (in the form of contributed modules), so this probably isn't a migration Drupal 7 users need to jump on right away.
With no official release date, it's tough to say precisely when a stable release will be out and ready to run a full-blown production site. As of right now, Drupal 8 isn't quite ready for primetime, but the beta release has created a lot of excitement in the Drupal community and the more people that pitch in, the sooner we'll have a usable release.

I am a Groupie!
The kind folk of the blogging world are kind enough to include me in their various groups. BarCampers, PodCampers, Foodies, and Photobloggers come quickly to mind. Did I leave any one out? I consider myself a bumbler among so many talented people. I am forced encouraged to try and take part in all that is happening. My efforts appear to me to be rather tame and amateurish.
I know when a recipe has failed because the term 'YUK!' appears and the very few comments that day! The Photo bloggers are a more mannerly crowd. They say nothing about my feeble attempts. Do they think I am made of tissue paper, ready to shred at the slightest criticism? Come on Grannymar is tougher than that. Someone, anyone, all of you take a look at the picture above and tell me where I have gone wrong. I know I use a baby camera smaller than some of the lenses you guys have, but there must be something I can learn.
What was I trying to achieve in the shot above??? I was walking towards the pergola and liked the shade I was in and the light beyond.
OK you have my permission tear it to shreads.

So far, so good! I have had an awful experience for the past 2 and a half weeks with a bad breakout on my chin. Along with a new cleanser, toner and purchasing this, my breakout has dramatically improved to the point where all there is is some redness. Amazing! And even though I have combination/oily skin, I love that this makes my skin feel a little more hydrated and not at all greasy or feeling like there is lots and lots of product on my face. Heard a lot of great reviews about this product, including some celebrities using this so thought I'd try it - and I am enjoying it!

This Trilogy Certified Organic Rosehip Oil is the first product I have bought from the trilogy range. (Having a nice consistency with helpful dropper )
I find a need more than a few drops, to get the moisture level I require.
I am pleased enough to consider buying the eye contour cream, in addition to this product.
At the present I will continue to place the oil around my eyes every evening and hope for improvement.

While any given game of NetHack may be very difficult to complete, it is generally understood that every game is winnable — that is, no game is created that the player cannot win.
There are, however, a few quest-related ways that a game may be rendered unwinnable, mostly by accident.
- Before getting permission from the quest leader, converting your alignment at an altar,
- Before permission, quest leader dies,
- Before permission, getting expelled by angering the the quest leader or failing the alignment test seven times (exception: neutral non-wizard),
- Before proceeding down, converting your alignment at an altar (exception: was lawful or chaotic, and quest portal still present)
- With the Amulet of Yendor remaining in the quest dungeon branch, getting expelled (exception: leader still alive)
The exceptions are what can be overcome using the Eye of the Aethiopica and/or a helm of opposite alignment.
These actions make it impossible to obtain the Bell of Opening from the quest nemesis, or to get the Amulet of Yendor back out of the quest branch. Both are necessary to win.
The best a player can do in an unwinnable situation is to escape the dungeon with the Candelabrum of Invocation, the Book of the Dead and any other sources of bragging rights.
Converting your alignmentEdit
If the player unsuccessfully performs an altar conversion by sacrificing at a cross-aligned altar with negative alignment record, he or she is converted to the alignment of the altar. That means permission to proceed down cannot be obtained from the quest leader at all. A player's alignment cannot be converted back to any previously held alignment by means of an altar, and the quest leader will "see through" a helm of opposite alignment.
You cannot go down or level teleport from the quest home level even with prior permission if the player is not of his or her original alignment. This can be overcome with a helm of opposite alignment.
Note that simply putting on a helm of opposite alignment does not render the game unwinnable -- removing the helm (after uncursing, if necessary) restores the character's previous alignment. You cannot put on the helm in the quest branch. The message you get if you try is somewhat misleading.
Getting expelledEdit
A second case is if the quest portal has been removed because you have angered the quest leader, or have failed his alignment record test seven times. Don't throw the silver bell or the Amulet of Yendor at him!
In this case, you will not be able to enter the quest branch at all by normal means. If you do branchport in, you will have to pacify your quest leader before you can get permission to go down.
If you threw the Amulet of Yendor at the quest leader, it is trapped in the quest branch. Once the portal is gone, the only way to get it out is to get expelled again while carrying it. The quest leader still has to be alive for this to work.
Entering the quest at all requires the player is neutral, is not a wizard, and has previously entered the quest branch: the player can wish for the Eye of the Aethiopica to branchport to the quest. (You have to have visited the quest once already because the Eye will not open a portal to a branch you haven't been to, and it will only drop you as deep as you have already gone before.)
Dead quest leaderEdit
If the quest leader is killed before you get permission to go down, the game will also be unwinnable. Due to a bug, a petrified quest leader brought back with stone to flesh or one turned undead will not grant permission. Doppelgangers can imitate your or other quest leaders, but they will not grant permission, either. (Wish for and stone-to-flesh a statue.)
The same principles apply to expulsion from the quest, in case you are trying to leave it with the Amulet.
SLASH'EM does not actually add any new ways to make the game unwinnable, although it certainly adds ways to make it nearly so. For example, although one needs two of the three alignment keys to reach Vlad the Impaler, lacking them, it is possible to wake him up with a mind flayer's psychic blast. He will then teleport to meet the player, and be carrying with him the Candelabrum. Also, locking vital items behind the doors and destroying the keys doesn't make the game unwinnable either. One can retrieve the Amulet or any Invocation item by luring an appropriate covetous monster into the the third level of Vlad's Tower, and the monster will then retrieve the items for the player.
If the quest leader dies, the stairs are automatically unlocked, in order to avoid issues with unwinnable games.

Collective worship is an important part of the school day.
Each term a Christian value is selected as a whole school focus and each act of collective worship is planned carefully to explore these values in more detail.
The context for collective worship is different each day, this may include; Whole school collective worship, class worship, worship around song, a worship with our parish vicar and a celebration worship that all parents and are invited along to. We celebrate a range of Christian festivals throughout the year, including Harvest, Christmas, St. Katharine's day, Easter as well as times for reflection such as Remembrance. Our curriculum work and planned RE teaching takes account of other major festivals from different faiths. We are an inclusive community that values the faiths and beliefs of all.
We regularly use the church to support the developing spirituality of our learners an example of this would be our leavers' service, led by the children at the end of the summer term.
Collective worship creates a space in our busy school day to be still and reflect upon the world we live in and our place within it.

http://www.advancedfootankle.com One of the common foot ailments we see are bunions and hammer toes. A bunion is a malalignment of the great toe joint. Hammer toes occur when there is a contracture of the joints of the lesser toes. Both of these foot ailments cause pain when the toes and joints rub in the shoes and the position puts excessive stress and strain on the ligaments, nerves, and soft tissue that surrounds the joints.
Mild bunion and hammer toe deformities may require wider shoes to avoid rubbing and pressure. Also, a custom orthotic may be needed to balance the joints and tendons, and this may halt or slow the progression of bunion and hammer toe deformation. More moderate and severe hammer toe deformities may require surgical correction. We offer comprehensive surgical correction for bunion and hammer toe deformities. We use the latest surgical therapies and treatments to get you back to doing those activities you love. We look forward to meeting with you to discuss what options would be best for your bunion or hammer toe. Please visit our website or contact our office for a consultation with one of our specialists.

Fashion History Classics: Who invented the Capri Pants?
The European fashion designer Sonja de Lennart invented the famous Capri pants in 1948. Well known as Capris, long or three-quarter shorts, they end below the knee and calf. The pants name comes from the Italian isle of Capri, where they rose to popularity in the late 1950s and early 1960s. First only worn by women, they later became popular also with men in many countries, especially in Europe and Latin America. The American actress Grace Kelly was the first movie star who wore Capris.
Sonja de Lennart studied the skillful trade of tailoring and the customizing of garments after attending a business school in Breslau to fulfill her dream of becoming a fashion designer. After World War II ended in 1945, de Lennart began to produce fashion wear and opened her first boutique, Salon Sonja in Munich, Germany. In that same year, she created a wide-swinging skirt with a wide belt, a blouse with three-quarter arms, and hat. Her design collection became known as the Capri Collection. Three years later when women were wearing the typical wide and rather masculine pants, de Lennart created the sexy tight three-quarter length Capri pants with the stylish short slit on the outer-side of the pant leg. The original classic Capri Pants were designed in specific lengths for winter and summer wear.
De Lennart became one of the most innovative European fashion designers after World War II and was considered a leading pioneer of her time by major magazines. As a result there was almost no fashion designer who did not add Capri pants to their collection.
