Skoda Octavia Estate review
The new Skoda Octavia Estate won Auto Express' Best Estate Car of 2013 award and offers huge value for money
Long gone is the era of Skoda jokes: the latest Octavia Estate is in fact a class-leader. It blends VW Golf mechanicals with lower prices and a practical bodystyle that's more handsome than the regular Octavia hatch. All this makes this cavernous load-lugger a real winner for families, wallet-conscious fleet buyers and, in the case of the GTI-baiting vRS version, even hot hatch fans.
• Best estate cars to buy right now
Offering 610 litres of space with the rear seats in place and a gargantuan 1,740 litres with the rear bench folded, the Octavia Estate is roomy enough to embarrass cars from the class above such as the BMW 3 Series Touring and Audi A4 Avant. Yet its Germanic cabin, while rather dour and uninspiring, is solidly put together and feels more expensive and more refined inside than rivals such as the Ford Focus Estate and Vauxhall Astra Tourer. You can identify the shared switchgear from the VW Golf Estate and SEAT Leon ST, but you should choose the Skoda if outright space is your biggest concern.
Skoda's Octavia Estate was first seen on Britain's shores in 1998, when it earned instant recognition for its now trademark qualities of practicality and space, VW-inspired reliability and relatively low cost.
That first-generation Octavia was one of the first really significant products of Volkswagen's involvement with Skoda. The two companies had formed a joint venture in the early 1990s, which led ultimately to a VW Group takeover. The first Octavia was a runaway success because it was built on the same VW platform as the Audi A3 and MkIV Golf, and benefitted immediately from VW's engineering prowess and reputation.

Now in its third generation, the Skoda Octavia Estate has grown up a little in size, making room for the Skoda Rapid compact family hatchback to slot into the space between the Octavia range and the Fabia supermini. As a result, the latest Octavia estate offers an even more capacious load bay than its already competitive predecessor.
Six engine options are available, each a four-cylinder turbocharged unit, from the entry-level 104bhp 1.2-litre TSI right through to the flagship vRS hot-rod, which is offered in both 220bhp petrol and 184bhp TDI diesel form. There's a GreenLine eco diesel version, and all-wheel drive is also available on some models.
Various trim choices are offered, starting with the S. This features plenty of standard equipment, including manual air-con, touchscreen-operated eight-speaker audio system with DAB and Bluetooth, height-adjustable drivers' seat and rake/reach adjustment for the steering wheel, plus split fold rear seats and 16-inch alloy wheels.
The SE model improves the spec a little with body-coloured mirrors and door handles, fog lights and various interior upgrades. There's also an SE L which adds Alcantara and leather upholstery, plus various additions to interior comfort and practicality including a variable boot floor and a luggage net, and front and rear arm rests.
The Scout model is similar to the SE but with ground clearance raised by 33mm, a rough road package with engine and underbody stone guards, and some rufty-tufty body cladding for an adventurous outdoorsy look.
The range-topping Laurin & Klement model gets special 18-inch Turbine alloys, cornering fog lights and electric folding mirrors, plus the most luxurious interior with electric seat adjustment, automatic lights, park assist, cruise control and sat-nav.

Engines, performance and drive
As it uses the same underlying architecture as the SEAT Leon ST and VW Golf Estate, you'd expect the Octavia to feel similar on the move. Yet there are some key differences when you get behind the wheel. For starters, the 109bhp 1.6-litre TDI engine isn't as well insulated - there's a distinct diesel rattle at idle, and it sounds more strained when you accelerate, too.
There's a six-speed manual or DSG gearbox available on the Octavia estate. The gear change itself is very smooth but opt for the automatic and you'll sacrifice a little when it comes to economy. It's also too sluggish to kick down when you demand a squirt of quick acceleration, so the new seven-speed versions on other VW products perform better.
The Octavia comes with a Driver Profile system, which adjusts engine and steering response according to which mode you've selected (Eco, Normal, Sport or Individual). Yet it doesn't get a front differential, which means it's not really eager to turn in. Normal mode remains the only worthwhile choice, as Eco makes the throttle response too lazy and Sport spoils the normally fluid steering with extra weighting. In its default mode, the naturally weighted steering, decent grip and strong brakes give the Skoda composed and confidence-inspiring handling.
All-wheel drive is available on certain models, handy for those who'll be tackling tougher terrain more frequently. Under normal driving conditions the 4x4 model is driven only by the front wheels but when the car detects it is struggling for grip, the rear wheels come in to play. The transition from front to all-wheel drive is seamless even when faced with the worst of British weather.
Like all Skodas, the ride in the Octavia estate is very impressive. It can be a little firm when driving around town but like its rivals from Honda, VW and SEAT, the ride softens at higher speeds.
The Octavia Estate has four turbocharged petrol engines to choose from, starting off with a 109bhp 1.2-litre TSI that offers 0-62mph in 10.2 seconds and a 122mph maximum.
Image 3 of 11
Next up is the 1.4 TSI which has 148bhp and does 0-62mph in 8.2 seconds with a 134mph maximum. The 1.8 TSI has 178bhp, and the relevant numbers are 7.4 seconds and 142mph.
The performance range-topper is the 2.0 TSI which comes with 217bhp in the standard vRS, or 227bhp in the even more pumped-up vRS 230. The performance differential between the two is marginal – 0-62mph in 6.9 or 6.8 seconds, and a top speed of 152 or 153mph. If you pick the DSG gearbox you'll lose a few tenths too.
Diesel options include the 109bhp 1.6 TDI which does 0-62 in 10.8 seconds and 121mph, unless you pick GreenLine eco-spec when the lower rolling resistance tyres and extra gear (it comes with a six-speed manual instead of five) shave a tenth of the 0-62mph time and extend the maximum speed to 127mph.
The 2.0-litre TDI comes in to variants, with 148bhp or 182bhp. The first delivers 0-62mph in 8.5 seconds with a 134mph maximum. The second does 0-62mph in 8.0 seconds and 143mph, and is yours with the diesel-powered vRS.
MPG, CO2 and running costs
The Octavia Elegance with the DSG gearbox is just £10 more than the equivalent Golf SE. However, the Skoda comes with more equipment, including climate control, voice-activated Bluetooth and rear parking sensors – adding just the latter two items bumps up the Golf's price by £1,140.
If you need the advantage of four-wheel drive (not available in the VW Golf Estate, or any rival this side of an Audi or Subaru), Skoda will charge you £1,450. The 4x4 variant also comes in at £2,630 cheaper than the equivalent Vauxhall Insignia Sports Tourer and a whopping £6,520 less than the VW Golf Estate.
Image 5 of 11
Both the Octavia and the Golf have a decent range of options, although the Skoda manages to trump the VW once again here, as its extras are slightly cheaper.
The automatic models all have identical tax costs, but the manual Octavia 1.6 TDI emits just 99g/km of CO2, which means tax will cost less – although bear in mind tax bands do get rejigged from time to time. It also offers up to 74.3mpg on the combined test cycle.
The most economical option is the 90g/km GreenLine eco special, which can deliver up to 80.7mpg. With a 50-litre fuel tank, that gives a theoretical range of 888 miles, but even if you can't match the official figures all the diesels should prove very frugal at the pumps.
The petrols are pretty efficient too, and even the 217bhp vRS has a claimed combined figure of 44.8mpg – but it does have a higher CO2 rating of 143 g/km.
Insurance groups
Insurance groups for the Octavia Estate range from 14 for the entry S model, and rise to 29 for the sportiest petrol vRS. The 2.0-litre diesel models are group 20, while the flagship Laurin & Klement trim is up to group 25.
The Octavia Estate's solid reputation and obvious practical qualities mean it's quite in demand on the used market, so it'll hold onto its value reasonably well. Our experts reckon you can expect to retain up to 45 per cent of an Octavia's value after three years, whereas a rival from Ford or Vauxhall would likely dip below 40 per cent.
Image 7 of 11
The 1.2 petrol is likely to perform less well than the frugal diesels in percentage terms, but it's a couple of grand cheaper up front.
Interior, design and technology
Like the company's larger Superb, the Octavia looks better as an estate than a hatchback. But the combination of right angles and straight edges means it's handsome rather than pretty. And while it may not be as eye-catching as the SEAT Leon ST or as daring as the Honda Civic Tourer, the well-proportioned Skoda has plenty of upmarket appeal, even in mid-range SE specification.
Most attractive is the range-topping Laurin & Klement version, named after Skoda's 19th-century founders. Fitted as standard are bi-xenon headlights, LED rear lights and 18-inch wheels, adding a dash of sophisticated aggression to the plain Octavia Estate shape.
Surprisingly, the Octavia Estate is exactly the same length as the hatch, but the estate-car styling means the long rear overhang doesn't look anywhere near as awkward as it does on the five-door. The only other difference between hatch and estate is the addition of black roof rails – although you can upgrade them to silver for £150.
The SE model comes with 16-inch alloy wheels, which seem a little lost in the arches. The 18-inch optional wheels are smarter.
Inside, the Octavia is pretty solid, but unspectacular. There's plenty of dark grey plastic trim, yet it's lifted a little by the gloss-black finish surrounding the radio, and extra silver trim around the gearlever and doors. In order to maintain the VW Group pecking order, materials aren't quite up to the plush nature of the VW Golf's.
Image 6 of 11
Sat-nav, stereo and infotainment
All Octavia Estates come with an up-to-date touchscreen-controlled infotainment system that even has motion sensors to call up menus.
The standard audio system is an eight-speaker set-up with digital radio and a CD player, plus Bluetooth connectivity for music streaming if required. The display can hook up to your smartphone using MirrorLink, Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
You can upgrade the audio to Skoda's Canton system, which adds a central dash speaker and boot mounted woofer for surround effects.
The optional sat-nav system is a pleasure to use thanks to its intuitive menus and clear mapping.
Practicality, comfort and boot space
Thanks to a straightforward dashboard and good ergonomics, the Octavia Estate is easy and uncomplicated to drive. There's plenty of adjustment in both the steering wheel and driver's seat, and with good leg- and head-room it's easy to get comfortable, too.
Once on the move, you'll be glad of the car's good all-round visibility, although optional parking sensors and a reversing camera will help if you add them to your spec list.
Around the Octavia's cabin, you'll find plenty of useful storage, including an air-conditioned glovebox, deep door bins and a handy cubby in front of the gearlever.
Image 9 of 11
At 4,658mm overall the Octavia Estate is a big car, but some way short of the 1,867mm Ford Mondeo Estate, which the Skoda beats for interior space. The Honda Civic Tourer – which has a bigger boot than either if you don't fold the seats - is 4,535mm long.
The width measurements tell the same story, with the 1,814mm Octavia sitting between the Ford and Honda.
Leg room, head room & passenger space
Overall, the Octavia Estate offers more passenger space than the Ford Mondeo, so accommodating five people should present no problems apart from a lack of foot space for the central rear passenger. (Although most models are front-wheel-drive, 4x4 models require a transmission tunnel.)
In the back, there's a folding centre armrest with a pair of cup-holders. Better still, rear passengers get loads of headroom and legroom.
The Octavia no longer leads the way for boot space in this class. The 624-litre Honda Civic Tourer now wears that crown, although the Octavia's 610-litre capacity will be more than enough for most buyers.
However, fold the 60:40 split rear bench and the space increases to 1,740 litres – which then comfortably beats the Honda's 1,668 litres. The Ford Mondeo has 537 litres, or 1,728 litres with the seats folded.
Image 11 of 11
The Octavia has a step in the floor behind the seats, so you don't get a totally flat load area. For £150, you can add an optional variable load floor, which removes any obstacles and creates handy underfloor storage. The load bay is also packed with useful hooks and cubbies, seatback release levers and a 12V socket. However, we find it very stingy that Skoda asks an extra £50 for a luggage net, even on high-spec models.
Reliability and Safety
The Skoda is a relatively new car, but there should be no concerns about its long-term durability. Its platform forms the basis of many VW Group cars, while the 1.6-litre TDI engine is tried and tested.
You also get excellent dealer back-up from Skoda –the brand consistently impresses in our Driver Power satisfaction surveys and in 2015 the manufacturer scored an excellent third overall, a few points behind the winner Lexus and runner-up Jaguar.
Getting down to specifics, the latest generation Octavia itself earned itself a decent 42nd place (out of 200 cars) in the 2015 reliability category, and an excellent 25th place for build quality. Overall, the odds for a positive ownership experience are definitely in the Skoda's favour.
Meanwhile, on the safety front, EuroNCAP has already awarded the Octavia hatchback a five-star crash-test rating. While the estate model hasn't been independently tested we'd expect any future results to be broadly similar.
EuroNCAP awarded it a very reassuring 93 per cent rating for adult occupant protection, with a good 86 per cent for child occupants and 66 per cent for pedestrians. The latter score was downgraded because the Octavia was initially tested with an active bonnet that moved upwards to provide a crumple-zone effect for pedestrians – but Skoda hasn't made the technology available.
Image 8 of 11
The Octavia's standard safety kit includes post-collision braking, which will automatically apply the brakes after a crash to stop the car moving in the event of a secondary impact. Driver fatigue and tyre-pressure monitors feature, too, while other options include lane assist, and crew assist. The latter senses when a collision seems inevitable and closes the windows and sunroof, as well as tightening the seatbelts.
You might think that, given the brand's decent reliability reputation, Skoda's marketing types could come up with a warranty that improves the current offer. Three years and 60,000 miles used to be an industry standard, but with five- and seven-year deals on offer from Hyundai and Kia, and others offering much bigger mileage caps, the Skoda warranty is starting to look a bit miserly.
Skoda servicing is competitive with other mainstream rivals, and the firm offers a range of service and maintenance plans so you can spread the cost monthly.
Service plans cover just the scheduled checks, while maintenance plans also include any necessary repairs to cooling and electrical systems, plus engine, suspension and transmission repairs – with certain exceptions – up to a maximum of 120,000 miles. (Including many of the things that would otherwise be covered by a longer standard warranty term.)

(Picture credit: Hogan Photos) #7 IBF, #13 WBC Yoshihiro Kamegai (24-1-1, 21 KO's) expects to beat Robert Guerrero (31-2-1, 18 KO') this Saturday night in their fight at the StubHub Center, in Carson, California, USA. Kamegai traveled all the way from Tokyo, Japan to fight the 31-year-old Guerrero, and he doesn't plan on coming home a loser when he departs for Japan after the fight. Kamegai has big power, and he plans on using that power to punish Guerrero with it.
Guerrero hasn't fought in over a year, as he's been taking it easy since getting a big payday against Floyd Mayweather Jr in May of last year. With the money that Guerrero got for that fight, he didn't have the need to return to the ring as fast as he had previously done. But he had to come back now because for him to wait longer, he'd be putting his career at risk. For a welterweight, you don't ever want to stay out of the ring for more than a year due to the changes that occur in your body when you've been inactive. I'd be surprising if Guerrero is at the same level he was when he last fight, because not fighting messes with a fighters' endurance as well as his ability to stay sharp.
"I didn't fly all the way across the ocean to lose," Kamegai said. "I came here to not just win the fight but to have a decisive victory. What I've worked on most since arriving is a way to avoid all of his holding tactics and a way to keep him from being able to fight from long range. Not a lot of people know me, but they will after the fight."
5'9 ½" doesn't have to worry so much about Guerrero fighting him at long range, because that's not really his game.
Guerrero tends to get in close range to bomb his opponents with shots, and he definitely likes to hold and hit. Kamegai is going to need a good inside game to deal with these tactics otherwise he's going to take a beating on Saturday.

Doctor Who's TARDIS, it's bigger on the inside.
Transdimensional engineering allows the TARDIS to have a deceptively large inside. Letranger Absurde (vitreolum) has cleverly used forced perspective to build what appears to be an impossibly big TARDIS interior:
Though the rest of the build is equally clever as the camera angle, including the great Doctor Who figure, the TARDIS itself, the doors and I really like the simple but effective sewer gate.
Apple Macintosh 1984 Commercial Gets LEGO-ified.
Apple cascaded its way into the public psyche with its famous 1984 commercial, directed by Ridley Scott. Jason Allemann's wonderfully poignant LEGO version re-imagines the work with Apple itself as the all-seeing overlord. Whatever side of the fence you sit regarding Apple's business these days, this is a fantastic piece.
After enjoying Evan B's recent miniland scale Firefly lifter, I'm overjoyed to see yet another iconic spacecraft get the same treatment! This time it's Eagle 5 from Mel brooks' classic Star Wars spoof Spaceballs, courtesy of Chris Rozek.
And in a matter of days you'll be able to see this creation – and a million others – at Brickworld Chicago. Let's just hope Chris can hang onto this build longer than the giant one he traded away in Simon's Red Brick Game!

Matt De Lanoy (Pepa Quin) turns to a classic subject I've rarely seen in LEGO form before: Looney Toons. The figures are spot on. Now all we need is for Matt to build Elmer Fudd to hunt the wabbit and duck.
Star Trekking, miniland style
I am currently enjoying reruns of Star Trek The Next Generation on Belgian TV. When I saw the first episode a few weeks ago, many years after I first saw it, I was a bit surprised at how dated the series looks nowadays and how young most of the actors were. Of course, many Trekkies consider Captain Picard, Cdr. Riker and their crew to be young upstarts. The real Starship Enterprise is captained by Kirk, with Spock serving as his first officer and Uhura, 'Bones' McCoy, Chechov, 'Scotty' and Sulu making up the rest of the cast.
Ryan Ziegelbauer (rionz) has recreated all of them in miniland form. Despite the limitations inherent to building miniland figures, to me they are all instantly recognisable. The only thing missing is a cardboard set that wobbles slightly!
Arthur, the point man.
MOCpages people's champion matt rountRee just finished his take on the famous zero-G hallway fight scene from 2010's Inception and it is every bit as eye catching as the film. The expression on Arthur's face is perfect and the pose of the bad guy makes for an inspired tribute to the trippy scene. If you follow the link you'll find some interesting commentary about the build and some pulled-back photos that show how extensive the set-up is.
Just for comparison's sake I've included Alex Eylar's (Profound Whatever) take on the very same scene, in minifig scale, from 2010.
"Maegor the Cruel was murdered in that chair."
Ever wonder what the Master Model Builders at LEGOLAND Carlsbad like to do on their California State-mandated, twice daily, ten minute breaks? Well according to my source, (a mole positioned deep within the Carlsbad California model-shop known as "The Encroacher") many of the Master Builders use the free time to build. Who can blame them? With one of the world's greatest parts-palette to work with, the temptation to put it to imaginative use must be overwhelming.
In my monthly meeting with "The Encroacher" he pointed me towards a posting from fellow shop worker Joel Baker. The model in question is a Miniland-scale interpretation of everyone's favorite chair o' doom, the Iron Throne from George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones. The model itself was actually constructed by a third Master Model Builder, Megan Correnti…yes this story is like a sweet onion, constant reader; layers upon layers.
Stay tuned for more tales from…"The Encroacher"…
(edit) I just saw that the model was also featured on BrickNerd. Tommy Williamson does a great job on the blog, and it wasn't my intent to poach his post.
Three, two, one, GO!
This Lego rendition of the classic Super Smash Brothers by Daniel Church brings me back to my middle school days when I played this game. The stage of Peach's Castle is instantly recognizable and features miniland-scale Nintendo characters by Nick Jensen and Casey McCoy.

©2008-2016 rockmanzallz
I have a huge power rangers kick goin on now for some reason. Mainly due to the announcement of the 5 inch Retrofire Megazord toy coming out (hopefully) soon! So here's the lineart. I might color this. Who knows..
Holy Zordon that is an awesome sketch
when i first this i bet the ultrazord was saying check me out bitches!
because he's has enough fire power to tear up the joint
because he's has enough fire power to tear up the joint
That's awesome! You sure brought some cool style to these guys!
Actually in Japan it's originally called ultimate daizyujin.
I really like how you made the Dragon Megazord look cool, instead of the downright silly toy/tv version.
nice, i love how you made it look realistic and not stiff like a toy!!
Im a really big Power Rangers fan I know all about the generations from Mighty Morphin, up to know. And I Don't mean to correct you or anything, but Megazord, Dragonzord and Titanus combine forms Ultrazord, not Ultra Megazord. I like the picture though, nice job.
Thank you, I was never one for titles tho. Haha I just feel the extra "Mega" in the title sounds tougher.
That's pretty freaking awesome. He looks just like a knight, I never really noticed before.
I always thought the original Mighty Morphin' Megazord was very chivalrous looking. Haha thanks again!
Sometimes, I like to call the Ultrazord by it's japanese name, Kyuukyoku Daizyujin. Nice art. Mabye you should another picture of the Ultrazord, but this time, it would be firing it's cannons.
yeah i actually drew the cannon in pencil, i forgot to ink it but that's a neat bit of trivia, i had no idea what the Megazord was called in the original Japanese show. went i get unlazy i plan on coloring this beast in. thanks for looking!!
DANG !!!!!!!!! That is Tight !!
i was think about drawing the ultra zord myself but i was missing a few parts.
im still amaze...colour it in

Campus Food:
The Coffee Shop is wonderful, if a little pricey. The main dinning hall is not as good. All the food is well cooked and they use mostly local ingredients but the options are limited.
Campus Food:
The Kitchen Staff is incredible. They are friendly, approachable, and always looking for suggestions. They directly respond to the needs and wants of the community. Unfortunately, they can only work with what the administration provides them, but they absolutely do their best, and they consistently provide delicious food.The Coffee Shop is really hit-or-miss. It's all student workers, and they vary greatly in skill level. It has been slowly increasing in overall quality, though.
Campus Food:
Fantastic and dedicated staff provides stellar meals with an emphasis on vegan/veggie folks. We just signed the Real Food Challenge - google that.
Campus Food:
The Kitchen does a great job of making sure to respond to community feedback on the food. They make meals that appeal to anyone who is a meat-eater, vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, has allergies, etc. They are so lovely to talk with and truly are a part of our community. They work hard to make sure that everyone is satisfied and take criticism well when a meal isn't very good. They have dramatically changed for the better in recent years.
Campus Food:
The dining hall does the best with what they can. There is one set of staff serving 230 people three times a day. So undercooked rice is to be expected, but the staff are super friendly and helpful if you need anything. Like if you want to bake banana nut bread, and have no bananas these guys are more than willing to help out.

Sorry, there are no reviews.
College food generally has a bad rap. But, like everything else at Marlboro, we do things a little differently. A lot of universities have food courts and popular chains along with their cafeteria options, but Marlboro has one dining hall and one café. Most meals at Marlboro have a bit of home cookin' to them. There are rarely meals with any packaging or plastic. Each dish is prepared with love and often will taste like it's right out of the oven. You won't find that at other colleges. Though generally good and sometimes even yummy, there a number of Marlboro dishes, made with love as they may be, that stand out as not so great. Avoid "Vegan Surprise" and "Tofu Yummy."
For vegetarians, there is usually a large variety of options compared with other schools, though vegans will find it a little harder to construct a full meal. When the Dining Hall is not sufficient or a meal time is missed due to class or sleeping in, the café in the Campus Center is always a sweet spot. It has made-to-order dishes that are consistently good, and the prices are very reasonable. Imagine meals at Marlboro as dinnertime for a family of 300. Everyone eats together.

Unbalanced? That is an interesting assumption. Please define "unbalanced". Perhaps some basic research towards finding a human phenome (nucleotide polymorphism) pornography trait is warranted. How do you intend on wording the pledge? "I promise not to follow my biological urges that are the result of any random genetic mutation leading to the consumption of, well, I know it when I see it." I think that you have your assignment cut out for you, so it's off to the laboratory with you!

Christina Grimmie was runner-up in her high school's "Cherokee Idol" singing competition in 2011. It was largely a popularity contest, friends said, and the introverted, video-game-loving Grimmie came up short in the votes.
On Monday, Grimmie, a Marlton native, will compete in the highest-rated singing popularity contest in the country as a finalist on NBC's The Voice - and with 500,000 Twitter followers, two million YouTube subscribers, and a strong cohort of South Jersey support, she has a good chance at redemption on a national stage. On Tuesday night, she will find out live on the show how America voted.

First mentioned in 1278, the Augustinian friary in Freiburg is almost as old as the town itself.
The chancel roof dating from the 14th century is the oldest in Freiburg after the one on the minster. At the beginning of the 18th century, the church was extended and remodelled in the baroque style, but the friary was secularised in 1810. The Augustinium Museum opened in 1923 and houses the municipal collections including medieval sculptures and pictures, baroque art, 19th century paintings, a collection of prints and drawings, and collections of applied arts and everyday culture.

It wasn't a pretty morning for Rihanna when she had to be evacuated out of her hotel room at six in the morning.
According to Mail U.K., the "We Found Love" singer was rudely awakened at 6 a.m. when a lift shaft at the hotel caught on fire. Rihanna was immediately evacuated from the hotel–what a way to ruin her beauty sleep!
The 24-year-old star tweeted "Roamin da streets since 6am! Fyah in da telly #evacuationlife" as she waited outside the hotel with over 300 guests. Turns out Rihanna isn't a complainer–any other girl would have been pretty cranky at such an ungodly hour in the morning!
Add "fire alarms" to the dramatic life of Hollywood stars! What do you think about Rihanna's evacuation? Would love to hear your thoughts below!

Resort Wear Stretches to Embrace Surf, Scuba
Jackie O. hanging 10?
That's just one of the surprising images evoked on the runway during this week's resort shows, as designers celebrate the original spirit of resort collections: leisure. Everything from scuba to surfing to cycling is being referenced in looks that aim to be sporty yet chic.
At her resort show earlier this week, Diane von Furstenberg dived deep into water sports, citing "the urban surfer, beach networker and snowboarding dreamer" as inspirations. Some models wore cycling shorts under shorts and skirts, bralette swim tops partially exposed under light shirts and fingerless gloves with cuffs that evoked wrist sweatbands. Donna Karan's collection of winter-holiday party dresses included high-tech and sleek elements of active sports, recalling her late husband's love of motorcycles.
Photos: Resort Fashions Celebrate Leisure
Herve Leger's resort presentation included black, curve-hugging top-and-pant combinations with brightly colored, striped detailing reminiscent of racecar-driver bodysuits. Michael Kors last week showed surf dresses and body-skimming looks heavily influenced by scuba. He dubbed the neon, color-blocked sport-chic looks "Surf Jackie."
"I love the idea of something that combines the classic elegance of Jacqueline Kennedy with the athletic spirit of surf culture," said Mr. Kors.
More Resort Wear Collections
Resort wear, also known as cruise, used to consist mainly of bathing suits, sundresses and caftans. In recent years, however, designers have started seeing it as a prime selling opportunity, and have expanded their lines.
Hitting stores in November and staying on the sales floor generally until May, resort is the longest selling period for designer collections. This means the garments are sold at full price for longer than those from the spring or fall collections, before being marked down.
The industry has resorted to calling resort "pre-spring," as collections have evolved to include everything from bikinis to evening dresses to fur coats.
Once shown only to retail buyers in private, designers are now mounting big runway shows and presentations for their resort collections, starting in May and lasting for about a month. Even menswear designers have started to get into the game. Bottega Veneta launched a resort men's collection and showed it to the press last month.
The challenge for designers is that resort clothing must retain a sense of leisure, but can't be too frivolous because it is such an important sales season.
The bold neon colors in these sporty looks could prove to be winners because "color is doing so well at retail right now," said Catherine Moellering, executive vice president of trend-forecasting firm Tobe, citing the enthusiasm for colored denim and the bright, bold spring collections of Jil Sander and Prada.
However, "there's always a danger [these kinds of looks] can skew very young. When these things look overtly like scuba wear, I don't think people in Des Moines are going to be wanting to wear that," Ms. Moellering said.
The question is, "How do we make it sporty and dressed up at the same time?" said Jason Wu, who also dived into the sporty theme with a resort collection he said was partly inspired by West Coast surf culture. The result was a series of looks, including printed, silk surf shorts, chiffon "scuba" shirts and a dress worn with a scuba-inspired belt.
The designer, not known for dress-down clothing, said with this collection he wanted to make clothes that are "multifunctional and multioccasion," since women today "don't go home and change to go out, they go with or without a change in accessories."
In an interview after her resort show on Monday, Ms. Karan said her collection, which includes looks such as a "scuba bodydress" and features a neoprene-like material, is "about holding in the body."
Walking up to a slim model in a pair of form-fitting black pants, Ms. Karan gave the material a quick pull. It snapped back into place immediately.
"I put on these pants," she said. "When she and I can put on the same pants, that works."

Burgess Hill changes
Please can you explain why the recent changes to Burgess Hill were reversed. (Population info, Transport info including information on road links, bus transport and taxi ranks.)
Many thanks in advance,
Curtis31992 (talk) 16:47, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Yes, I should have explained at the time but was in a hurry. Apologies. Wikipedia is not a how-to manual or a travel guide, so that level of detail is not apropriate, and could be seen as advertising.--Charles (talk) 17:47, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Having re-read the changes I made I agree the removal of some of them for that reason. I have however made some minor changes which I believe were still valid, with regards to your reason for changes.
Curtis31992 (talk) 21:11, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Hi there. I noticed you reverted an edit made to the Burgess Hill article made from this IP. I am sysadmin for a retail company and the edit appears to have been made as a joke by one of my staff. I am going to pass on the necessary "training" but just wanted to thank you for your prompt corrective action and for leaving the message you did. -James --220.127.116.11 (talk) 16:33, 11 March 2009 (UTC)
You keep removing a link to the Egremont newspaper and marking it as spam. The newspaper is free and delivered to every house in the Egremont and district area and is therefore not only highly relevant but also cannot be spam as the newspaper makes no charge, nor advertises anywhere on it's website. Please do not remove the link again.
Chacufc (talk) 17:19, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

Please could you tell me why you keep deleting the links to Littlehampton Marina on the Littlehampton page? Fishing( on the river and on the sea) is a big tourist attraction in Littlehampton so lots of people arrive by boat on day trips.Therefore they need to locate the marina for a mooring. To ignore references to the marina is unhelpful for visitors. signed garibaldicamping Garibaldicamping (talk) 23:00, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia is not a directory and should not be used for advertising. Read the guidelines for editing. The link in question is blatant advertising. It is perfectly acceptable to include the marina on the page as long as it is with a neutral point of view.--Charles (talk) 07:43, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
Thank you. I still don't really understand your comment as there is a big piece in the article about Stagecoach buses which is advertising for a private company, as is the stuff on East Beach cafe.How is a link advertising? How is a link not neutral? By the way I dont work for the marina, I just know it provides a facility for boat owners. Any way I'll give up. signed garibaldicampingGaribaldicamping (talk) 23:04, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Speedy deletion of Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy
A tag has been placed on Henry de Percy, 1st Baron Percy requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding
{{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

As you have answered some of my questions in the discussion page of Dorset, I thought that you may be able to answer this one in that discussion page and correct the article:
If the populations and GVAs of the non-metropolitan county of Dorset and of Poole & Bournemouth are as similar as the article explain, how can the the GVA per person for Dorset be £6,671 and the one for Poole & Bournemouth £15,683? There is a huge difference. If the populations and the GVAs of both areas are similar, the GVAs per person should be similar. There is a mistake somewhere.

Chichester (district)
As I said in my note suggesting the merger, it is most unusual to separate the list of parishes like this one. Compare Horsham and Mid Sussex, both of which retain the list; and in particular the three East Sussex districts of Lewes (district), Rother and Wealden The latter are being built up to article length, with much more information than the West Sussex articles - and have two lists! We have to be logical about this: if we leave them as they are, what else can we say on the separate parish list? Peter Shearan (talk) 05:24, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Ray Mears
Oh I heard the information somewhere but I think it must have been a joke. One of those Ray Mears hating people. I added the information but forgot to cite my reference. When I searched for it I could no longer find it, and as a result I decided to pull my original comments. Now I am getting grief for breaking wikis editing policy, however it clearly states be bold in your editing process because if you get it wrong you can always correct the information. So therefore you warning me is wrong because I followed the guidelines. I suggest you read up on them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk) 12:32, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Wikipedia is very sensitive about biographies of living people for legal reasons. Such serious allegations would need cast iron sourcing BEFORE adding them. There is a difference between being bold and being reckless. --Charles (talk) 16:36, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
I hate to drag this on anymore than is strictly necessary but I can't help feeling you and the other bloke only pointed out stuff to me because you feel a sense of power doing it. Your statement along the lines of biographys require extra care, is somewhat unfounded to me the humble wiki user. Now I won't claim to have read every single page of editing guidelines, but the main text implies if you want to, have a go. Because its a website designed for everyone. If you so badly only want you and maybe a few buddies writing then I suggest you set up your own website because like I said all can use wikipedia. Now I explained carefully my account of what happened, I wrote something but forgot to cite my sources. When I looked for them I couldn't find them. This is a situation that could face any wiki user. The obvious next step would be to delete what I had written for I had no references to my statement. This is the very principles on which Wikipedia is based, that one can afford to make a mistake but if they do then they take appropriate action. I did and you have been a power crazed buffoon over the incident. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gunsnroses15 (talk • contribs) 20:34, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

Proposed deletion of Hybridmaster
Per your warning about the proposed deletion of Hybridmaster, I did not create, nor significantly contribute to, the article. Looking at the revision history, I see that I fixed a misspelling in the article in September 2007. When my involvement with an article is a minor revision, I would prefer not to receive a templated PROD warning on my talk page as my overall count of edits across all articles could lead to very high notification levels. Thank you. -- Michael Devore (talk) 13:14, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
Capital Letters...
I've noticed that you've changed the following titles from...
- Cathedral Organists
- Organists & Masters of the Choristers
- Assistant Organists
- Organ Scholars
- Cathedral organists
- Organists & masters of the choristers
- Assistant organists
- Organ scholars.
Firstly, you know the titles Prime Minister of Great Britain, well we writel it like Prime Minister of Great Britain, not Prime minister of great britain. This is because it is a proper title given to a nominated/elected person to an office ...etc.
Cathedral Organists, Organists & Masters of the Choristers ,Assistant Organists & Organ Scholars are all respectively tiles like Prime Minister of Great Britain, but in the liturgical office of the church.
I ask you to correct this clear mistake and leave it!! -Willwal
- I've just come to your page to make the same comment.. Goodbye! Amandajm (talk) 06:15, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
Obviously Great Britain is a proper noun and will always be capitalised. Prime minister will not always be, depending whether it is being used generically, or applied to a specific individual. The examples you complain of above are being used generically in section headings and should not be capitalised. I refer you to the Manual of style.--Charles (talk) 22:34, 28 December 2008 (UTC)
PS I also refer you to Prime minister which has a section "Lists of prime ministers". On further perusal of Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) I see that even God does not get a capital when described as "the Christian god", so I don't think mere organ scholars have much chance. I edit in good faith and my work is rarely rejected, so I find your brusque attitude rather offensive. I wish you a happy new year.--Charles (talk) 22:28, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
As you can see, more than 1 person disagrees with you. You shouldn't find what I said offensive, because we all make mistakes, and Organists & Masters of the Choristers ,Assistant Organists & Organ Scholars are all official titles. -Willwal

Hello, Charles Drakew, thank you for the copy-editing the article but as you know, I'm the one who created the article. Although I picked not quite right word to describe the King's mentality[1], if you read an attached English source, you will know that the king did not have "symphathy" for the class, but tried to avoide hearing the word or reference which could link his mother's class. Would you find more an appropriate word to explain his extreme sensibility over any mention regarding the musuri class? Thanks.--Caspian blue 03:12, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
Ah yes. I see what you mean now. English is a tricky old language to get right. I will have another go at it. Best wishes to you.--Charles (talk) 10:16, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Pippingford Park
Pippingford Park is in Nutley and the website offers a wealth of visual information pertaining to Nutley. Pippingford is still an Army training ground as well as being a haven for Deer and the lakes are Sites of Special Scientific Interest.

Blocking editing?!?!?
Hi Jeff
Could you please explain who you are and why you are threatening to block me from editing.
Where is your contribution to the discussion apart from the threat! --Smg1965 (talk) 18:42, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
- I am a Veteran Editor with over 27,000 edits under my belt, sometimes involved in Recent Changes Patrol using Huggle. At 17:37 (UTC) yesterday, during one of my patrols, I noticed this edit, in which you restored external links that Charlesdrakew felt were spam (as evidenced by that editor's Edit Summary for this edit). I am trying, as was Charlesdrakew, to protect Wikipedia from inappropriate external links, as we have been explaining to you on your user talk page, so to that end, one minute later I reverted your restoration and issued you standard warning Template:uw-hugglespam3. — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 04:39, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
Firstly Jeff the issue is whether I am a spammer or not as labelled by Charlesdrakew who from the moment I added the link deleted it without any discussion and labelled me a spammer. Viewing my history on Wikipedia it is clear that I am NOT a spammer but a relative Newbie.
Secondly the comments on my user talk page suggest I have not read the spamming guidelines. Just because Charlesdrakew and you think it is Spam does NOT make it so. It should be up for discussion as the guidelines are not black and white and I do not consider the link to be spamming because:
- The site gives a history on the Manor House and the estate which is also relative to Nutley and Ashdown Forest, and also provides a good source of imagery of the area not contained on the Wiki
- I have visited Pippingford Park during one of their events and at no time was solicited for an entry fee or charge for car parking but was free to roam un-hindered
- The website provides no "point of sale", you can't purchase anything via the website
- Any commercial activity Pippingford offers is of interest to a small majority of people in a specific market, as with any Historic Manor, Estate, Garden etc in Britain and the World they have to create an income to survive, this should not detract from it's historic and local importance. E.g. The Tower of London's Wiki page has an external link to Commercial website
Lastly I would be very happy to have this issue taken to the Wikipedia admins for a decision which I would respect. I would at the same time like them to look at the conduct of Charlesdrakew and yourself regarding the authoritarian attitude towards ordinary pedestrian users of Wikipedia.
- Should Charlesdrakew be able to label myself and any other users as spammers
- Should Charlesdrakew be able to delete additions without any discussion beforehand
- Should Charlesdrakew be able to delete existing content without any discussion (the "Nutley Social Club" link added by another user) to justify my link deletion
- Should Charlesdrakew be able to vacillate on HIS decisions as to which links should stay and be removed
- Should Charlesdrakew be able "poke fun" at myself and other users
- Should Charlesdrakew be able continuously undo changes without receiving any warnings as I myself did
- Should you Jeff be able to threaten to ban my editing without discussion
- Do you Jeff really think the link I have added and tried to justify politely is "Vandalism"?
- If I was a spammer would I enter into so much discussion about this point and waste my time
- Did you Jeff actually read the discussion on this before issuing your threat!
Once again I added the link to Pippingford Park in good faith as I was impressed by the area as far as free accessibility and its beauty and thought it would be beneficial to the Nutley page. It seems ordinary users are at the mercy of seasoned users who use their knowledge of Wikipedia to block any open access and discussion. I find this incredibly sad and abusive!
I must admit, having read this item above, I tend to agree as I am suffering a similar fate: I'm an Asperger and find some of the intracies of Wiki quite opaque. If the "marshalls" wore badges to "prove" legitimacy I'd feel a lot better, but when postings are simply deleted it implies & conveys the impression that another viewer (DrakecharlesW) simply disagrees with your view/post and can simply delete without a discussion.
Personally, for me at least, this is the most unappealing side of wiki, and it rather sours the whole universal experience, diluting it down to the lowest common enominator, that of the self appointed judge, jury and executioner. When this happens, wiki and everyone else that seeks to use the resource is infinitely poorer. If I've made a mistake, surely the guardians of Wiki should take pride in helping users improve wiki in a more positive fashion by engaging with some asistance? If, once an explanation has taken place and it's clear that I've made an error, yes I'd be more than happy to apologise, but at the moment I feel that I've been nudged off the road into the hard shoulder by a hit and run driver -no recourse...nothing apart from a clear audit trail that DrakecharlesW really is a law unto himself which ultimately is rather pointless, but maybe this is his mission in life? --Jivebaby 16:32, 4 May 2010 (UTC)

Official titles take capital letters, as in Assistant Organist. The deletion of these caps is an ongoing problem. If you have done it at other cathedral sites, please restor them. Lady Chapel takes caps. It is the "Chapel of Our Lady". "Christian" takes caps as well. Amandajm (talk) 11:56, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Hi Charles; thanks for your note. An interesting story; I hope they still have the documents, or have donated them to the Library. I was planning to walk there at some point (about 1½ hours from my house, straight over the Downs) and take photos prior to writing the article, but in the end I found a good one on Commons and used that instead; I had all the source material for the article ready and waiting. Hope you enjoy Ifield Water Mill as well, if you haven't been already! Hassocks5489 (tickets please!) 23:10, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
