17 Candidate Interview Reviews Back to all InterviewsSort: Popular Date Difficulty
- Accepted OfferEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at IRS.
Very basic and simple interview. The questions were not compicated and I was interviewed by Contact Representative managers. Think the main point of the interview was to hear how my voice sounded and how I talked.
Interview Questions
- How would you deal with an irate caller? Answer Question
- Accepted OfferEasy Interview
I applied in-person – interviewed at IRS.
Applied the end of august. It's mid September and I just got offered position after having to complete an online assessment, tap assessment, and interview. Must pass back ground check and criminal record.
Interview Questions
- Questions were the same Genreal questions at any interview. How would you handle conflict? What would you so if you didn't know something? Etc Answer Question
There is NO NEGOTIATION. Take it or leave it.
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 2+ months – interviewed at IRS in August 2014.
The hiring process is pretty lengthy. There are many steps that you have to go through before you are given confirmation that you actulally have the job. The job does require that you take and assessment online and also an assessment onsite. All correspondence are done by email. You will also receive phone call letting ou know to check our email.
Interview Questions
- There was no diffcult wuestions asked. Answer Question
- Accepted Offer
While the hiring process is lengthy the interview itself was comprised of four fairly logical questions posing potential caller scenarios.
Interview Questions
- A question about an apparent tax software company error mistakenly directing four taxpayers in a row to call the IRS to obtain their last year's AIG and how to deal with that. Answer Question
Helpful (6)Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 4+ months – interviewed at IRS (Portland, OR) in October 2013.
Getting through to the interview was very interesting indeed. The testing process was basic and thorough. Do your research on internet and you should get through their process. The whole process takes months of waiting, and then a flurry of process, and back to waiting. Best of luck!
Interview Questions
- The interview itself was four basic questions asking how you would deal with specific call situations. Very easy. Answer Question
no negotiation
Helpful (3)Accepted OfferEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 6+ months – interviewed at IRS (Saint Louis, MO).
It was very lengthy( about a 6 month process). There was a phone test, finger printing, and an interview. During the process you will be brought in with other candidates to go over your application. You must include every job within the given range and be totally honest because they will dig deep within your background. You could be fired a year after working there for not being completely honest on the application. I saw it happen to a co-worker. The interview was very laid back. The questions were mostly to determine if you could handle difficult customers and not be afraid to follow the policies and procedures.
Interview Questions
- Not very difficult. They will ask you to describe you experience and your plans for the future. 1 Answer
No negotiation. The pay is straightforward and predetermined based on your grade level.
Helpful (1)Accepted OfferAverage Interview
They post the job, you apply, a couple months later you get an email (check your spam!) telling you to take an online assessment. If you pass, they contact you to come to the federal building for fingerprints, paperwork, and interview. While there they have you sit in one of the cubicles and take a call from someone (another manager maybe???) in a sort of role playing thing.
Interview Questions
- Before you took the evaluation calls, you were given a number in order to log in to the phone. What was that number called? Answer Question
No negotiation.
Helpful (4)Accepted OfferPositive Experience
I applied online. The process took 6+ months – interviewed at IRS (Cleveland, OH).
Completed the online application two days before announcement expired, received a call to complete fingerprinting two months later, received a call to complete computer/practice call assessment a month afterwards and received an offer for employment about three months after the assessment.
Interview Questions
- There was NO interview back in 2006 for contact reps. You have to complete an assessment on a computer taking phone calls from a recruiter that you cannot see. They did not want to see if you would have the right answers necessarily...but rather, if HOW you answered them and followed directions. TIP: They are always monitoring your professionalism. Most of the escorts are actually MANAGERS so behave professionally, dress well and act as if someone is watching you at all times (because they are). 4 years later, I became a Lead / Manager and know first hand. Best wishes Answer Question
There was NO negotiation at the time. Now, they base it on your education/experience level and you WILL be measured up to your abilities later on.
- Accepted OfferNeutral ExperienceAverage Interview
I applied online. The process took 2 days – interviewed at IRS in November 2012.
Upon submitting your resume to the IRS, you will be asked to take an online assessment. Basically, you are given a simulated phone conversation with a database of information in order to see how well you can use the information to answer questions. If you score well enough on the test you are asked to come in for an additional live assessment. During this test, you speak to a person pretending to be a customer. You answer their question based on information you are given before the test. At this stage, you are also given a brief interview by a manager where they ask you general interview questions.
Interview Questions
- A fake customer becomes irate at an answer you are required to give them. They demand a supervisor and you are instructed to assure them a supervisor will only give them the same answer. 1 Answer
You are given the specific salary upon submitting your application. Negotiation is typically not entertained.
- Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy Interview
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks – interviewed at IRS (Holtsville, NY).
Applied online, 2 weeks later went in for pre-employment meeting with about 30 others. Piles of paperwork. Then set up another appointment for a telephone assessment and quick interview.
Interview Questions
- During the phone assessment they purposefully try to mess you up. A little pressure, but totally doable. Answer Question
None, set times and salaries.

The present invention relates to an optical compensatory film that contributes to widen the viewing angle of a liquid crystal display device, and a polarizing plate using the same. Further, the invention relates to a liquid crystal displaydevice, in particular liquid crystal display device of an in-plane switching mode in which display is carried out by applying a lateral electric field to liquid crystal molecules aligning in the horizontal direction.BACKGROUND ART Widely used is a liquid crystal display device with a system in which a liquid crystal layer of twist-arranged nematic liquid crystals are interposed between two orthogonal polarizing plates and an electric field is applied in the perpendiculardirection to the substrate, so-called TN mode. In the system, since the liquid crystal rises relative to the substrate at the time of black level, when viewed from an oblique direction, birefringence due to the liquid crystal molecule generates andlight leakage occurs. To solve the problem, a system, in which a film in which liquid crystalline molecules are hybrid-aligned is used to optically compensate a liquid crystal cell and prevent the light leakage, is put into practical use. However, evenwhen liquid crystalline molecules are used, it is very difficult to optically compensate a liquid crystal cell completely without problem, thereby generating such problem that graduation reversal in the bottom of a screen can not completely suppressed. In order to solve such problem, there have been proposed and put into practical use a liquid crystal display device according to so-called in-plane switching (IPS) mode in which a lateral electric field is applied to the liquid crystal, andvertical alignment (VA) mode in which a liquid crystal having negative permittivity anisotropy is vertically aligned and alignment-divided by a protrusion or slit electrode formed in a panel. Recently, these panels are being developed not only formonitor application but also for TV appl

With less than 75 days until the start of the 2013 NFL regular season, let's take an updated look at the Top 10 quarterbacks in the NFL today. These rankings are primarily based on each player's career to this point. Note: Instead of including the young, up-and-coming star signal-callers like Robert Griffin III, Russell Wilson, Andrew Luck and Colin Kaepernick with the proven veterans around the league, the top players at the position have been divided into two categories—one group of guys who are 25 or under and the other group includes QBs that are at least 26-years-old. This list covers the latter. Check in later this week for the former on the Top 10 young guns at the position. Photo From Rangaprabhu.com (via Sodahead.com) 1. Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay Packers) Since taking over as the successor to Brett Favre in 2008, Rodgers has completed 1,717 of 2,606 passes (65.8 percent) for 21,332 yards with 170 touchdowns to 45 interceptions and carried the ball 292 times for 1,395 yard...

Nam Y. Huh, Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama rolled to re-election Tuesday night, vanquishing former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney despite a weak economy that plagued his first term and put a crimp in the middle class dreams of millions. In victory, he confidently promised better days ahead.
Obama spoke to thousands of cheering supporters in his hometown of Chicago, praising Romney and declaring his optimism for the next four years. "While our road has been hard, though our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have fought our way back and we know in our hearts that for the United States of America, the best is yet to come," he said.
Romney made a brief, graceful concession speech before a disappointed crowd in Boston. He summoned all Americans to pray for Obama and urged the night's political winners to put partisan bickering aside and "reach across the aisle" to tackle the nation's problems.
Still, after the costliest — and one of the nastiest — campaigns in history, divided government was alive and well.
Democrats retained control of the Senate with surprising ease. With three races too close to call, they had the possibility of gaining a seat.
Republicans won the House, ensuring that Speaker John Boehner of Ohio, Obama's partner in unsuccessful deficit talks, would reclaim his seat at the bargaining table. With numerous races as yet uncalled, the size of the GOP majority was unknown.
At Obama headquarters in Chicago, a huge crowd gathered waving small American flags and cheering. Supporters hugged each other, danced and pumped their fists in the air. Excited crowds also gathered in New York's Times Square, at Faneuil Hall in Boston and near the White House in Washington, drivers joyfully honking as they passed by.
With returns from 88 percent of the nation's precincts, Obama had 55.8 million, 49.8 percent of the popular vote. Romney had 54.5 million, or 48.6 percent.
The president's laserlike focus on the battleground states allowed him to run up a 303-206 margin in the competition for the 270 electoral votes needed to win the White House, the count that mattered most. Remarkably, given the sour economy, he lost only two states that he captured in 2008, Indiana and North Carolina.
Florida, another Obama state four years ago, remained too close to call.
The election emerged as a choice between two very different visions of government — whether it occupies a major, front-row place in American lives or is in the background as a less-obtrusive facilitator for private enterprise and entrepreneurship.
The economy was rated the top issue by about 60 percent of voters surveyed as they left their polling places. But more said former President George W. Bush bore responsibility for current circumstances than Obama did after nearly four years in office.
That boded well for the president, who had worked to turn the election into a choice between his proposals and Romney's, rather than a simple referendum on the economy during his time in the White House.
Unemployment stood at 7.9 percent on Election Day, higher than when the president took office. And despite signs of progress, the economy is still struggling after the worst recession in history.
Obama captured Ohio, Wisconsin, Iowa, Virginia, New Hampshire, Colorado and Nevada, seven of the nine states where the rivals and their allies poured nearly $1 billion into dueling television commercials.
Romney won North Carolina among the battleground states.
Florida was too close to call, Obama leading narrowly in a state where there were still long lines of voters at some polling places long after the appointed closing time.

Very clean, great breakfast
Close to railroad tracks
The staff was very friendly and help fix
Staff VERY friendly, nice selection for breakfast (plus a little different each morning), room was clean, nice workout room.
Small pool & no jacuzzi. (Steps on pool were sharp. My son cut his arm and friends daughter cut the bottom of her foot) Difficulty with our heater in our room but the manager was extremely nice and promptly fixed the problem.
it was a two night stay and the bed was not made
Very nice hotel. Clean, spacious and friendly staff. Would definitely stay here again.
Only has 1 elevator working. Rooms little noisy as they had a lot of little kids staying and running around unsupervised.
Nice access to both Routes 70 and 40 in Richmond. Lots of restaurants close by including Cracker Barrel within an easy walk. New, clean, affordable.
One of the desk clerks was very friendly and customer service oriented. The kitchen and microwave were convenient. The room was clean.
The air conditioner didn't work, but luckily the windows opened and it was cool outside. The pool was closed due to construction. Actually, much was closed due to construction. We had to pay extra for even reasonably good internet.
good breakfast, clean rooms, nice visit
everything was fine
The strawberry waffles and the Staff. It was also close to my daughter's residence.
It's condition of up keep and cleanliness. It needs maintenance by a competent maintenance worker with more experience.
The room was comfortable and affordable.
It took nearly three hours, 3-4 stops, and 5-6 phone calls to find the location. It was extremely frustrating. The desk tried to be helpful but seemed to be limited, not knowing the correct directions and arrival estimates. With e-mail confirmation a map of where the client will be and a map with directions could have been provided. I came away feeling like I should have not been charged for all the time and grief endured that evening. Sincerely
Location to the friends we were going to see
Called a week ahead for 1st floor room because of knee problems, Both days we stayed, our key cards stopped working before we went into our room at night. Over charged my credit card by $2.22 over the price you quoted me on the Kayak website. Said they refunded my card and it's been 2 days and still on refund. Wouldn't say anything about that amount if it weren't for all the issues.
Close to Highway.
The facility is old and needs lots of attention. Stop for the night on my way home to Wisconsin. There was mold growing in the grout lines of the shower and bathroom ceiling, probably because it doesn't have a vent fan. Sink in bathroom was rusting. Battery backup in smoke detector was missing. The room had not been vacuumed in some time. This became apparent due to toe nail clipping and debris next to the night stand. Said it was non smoking but smelled like a ash tray. Silverfish crawling on bathroom floor in the morning. Wasn't even interested in the breakfast they offered. Bob Evans was across the street, THANK GOD! I didn't ask for a new room because of the looks of the place, I would fare no better. To tired to deal with trying to get a refund as well and going someplace else. I did shower again when I got home. Super 8 need to pull the franchise from this establishment. Word of caution about booking on line. I guess you never know what your going to get.
The staff was very friendly & helpful and the room was clean. Traveling with young children, I appreciated the microwave & fridge in the room as well.
Clean room. Friendly staff.
The hotel is conveniently located on US 40, a ten-minute drive from Earlham College.
Like much of Richmond, it's seen better days. Although basically clean, there's peeling paint, a leaky faucet, old carpet and an unsightly, covered out-of-use pool outside. It was a place to hang my hat, but that's all.

There were plenty of armed and uniformed posse members helping out or looking for unauthorized immigrants to nab.
He then looked up to find 50 uniformed men all pointing machine guns in his direction.
Some of this is evident, with an increased presence by uniformed cops; some of it is not visible to the public.

41 year old man | Fair Lawn, NJ, USA | Seeking women 26-36 within 50 miles
Just looking to hang out and have fun...
My name is Mark and I currently live in Northern NJ. I like meeting new people but also value my family and the close group of friends that I usually spend my free time with. I love to travel and would like to continue visiting many cities and countries that I haven't yet been to. I usually travel with friends or family but would enjoy taking trips with someone special who also likes to travel as well. I have Greek heritage and enjoy visiting distant family in Athens and on the Greek Islands. I have also visited various cities and countries in the Americas and Europe, but have yet to travel to Asia or Australia and hope to visit them sometime soon. I also love sports and attending sporting events of all kinds. I play golf on occasion as well as ice hockey and enjoy cycling / spinning, swimming, skiing, and other forms of exercise in my free time. I listen to all kinds of music and like going to concerts, shows, musicals, and nightclubs. I'm also into motorcycles and definitely interested in getting a private pilot's license someday. I have always been very career oriented but now looking to meet someone that I can have fun with, spend time with, and eventually settle down with. I believe that meeting the right person starts with a natural connection to someone that might share in some common interests but that more importantly wants to share in new life experiences. I'm looking to meet an honest, genuine person who values family and friends but that also values hard work and accomplishment - a quietly confident woman that knows what she wants and when she wants it but that is also comfortable enough in her own skin to trust and accept any guidance that she might receive if that confidence is ever shaken...especially from someone that she really cares about and that genuinely cares about her in return. I'm also looking to meet someone that enjoys unplanned romantic getaways as much as she enjoys an occasional movie over a bottle of wine (and just about everything in between). I'm very comfortable starting casual and understand that not all dates lead to relationships so definitely let me know if you're interested in having fun and spending time together!

The Dollop Book of Frosting
Frosting is the stuff you put on top of a cupcake, or in between the layers of a whoopie pie. People often pay more attention to what the frosting is going onto than to the frosting itself. The fact is that a good frosting can make or break a dessert and sometimes all you need is to get out of the rut of making plain ... Read More »

Recent Ocean Gallery reviews
"My family and I stayed at this condo. We truly enjoyed our stay. Being a bit skeptical, I have never rented a condo - always have stayed at a hotel. After looking at the pictures, I decided I would take a chance on this unit. It was EXACTLY as the pictures portray. The condo is updated, very clean, homey, beds were comfortable, all the cooking utensils were there; simply beautiful. Being from Ohio (where it was 59 when we left in June) I was a little warm. I called the number given and immediately the temperature was adjusted to our liking. Also, I appreciated the text/call to ensure we arrived. The pools were great, the beach was a short walk, even the gate attendant was super. It's positioned only a short drive to downtown and great restaurants. If my travels bring me back to St. Augustine, I will visit again, it was a great trip!"Guest: Julie Date of Stay: June 2015 Review Submitted: June 19, 2015View listing
"We just returned from spending 2 awesome weeks at this beautiful condo! There wasn't a thing that wasn't 100% top of the line through out this condo including the well kept grounds and pool area. We loved having our morning coffee on the patio looking out onto the ocean listening to the waves breaking and seeing the gorgeous sunrise- evenings were just as blissful! The only draw back was Ocean Gallery was sandblasting/redoing the sidewalk outside the condo and it was terribly noisy and extremely dusty..no one's fault and when it is finished it will add to the beauty and well kept appearance of the property also "start up" supplies like hand soap, electric dishwasher/dish soap, paper towels would have been appreciated but since we always have to make a trip to the grocery for supplies it was no biggie. The owners were especially nice to work with. I now call this my new "my happy place"!! Can't wait to get back in April!!"Guest: Steve and Joann Date of Stay: October 2014 Review Submitted: November 2, 2014View listing
"Just returned home after a week at this beautiful condo and I miss it already! This condo is so much more than the pictures show. It is beautiful and well stocked with anything you could need. The resort is very nice, very clean and very well maintained. This condo is in a great spot in the resort and the beach and pool were uncrowded. The owner of the condo was very friendly and easy to work with as were the staff at the resort. I definitely would return here and would like to thank the owner and family for allowing us the use of their home."Guest: PIEDMONT ALABAMA Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: August 12, 2014View listing
"We have been coming to the Ocean Gallery for 16 years now and have stayed at this condo more than any of the others. The tropical decor as well as the easy access to the room from the parking lot are all bonuses for us but what keeps us coming back is the owner. She is an absolute delight and so easy to work with. I would recommend this condo to anyone."Guest: Grace Date of Stay: August 2014 Review Submitted: November 6, 2014View listing

Click here to view your Craft Projects.
These Berry Sweet Earrings are sure to be loved by anyone lucky enough to wear them! Made using a variety of pink, red, yellow, and orange buttons, these super sweet earrings are easy and budget-friendly. They would be great for girls of all ages...and if you're feeling extra creative, you could easily make a matching charm bracelet or necklace to go with these precious button earrings.
- 6-8 cm of thin silver chain (the more chain you use, the longer the earrings will get)
- Assortment of lavender and light green buttons
- 10-12 Jump Rings
- 2x Earring Hooks
- Chain Nose Pliers
- Wire Cutters
- I started by gathering all my supplies. Then I cut my thin silver chain 2x 3cm.
- Taking my chain nose pliers, I bent open my jump rings. I thread one open jump ring through each button then attached it to the chain.
- Once all my buttons had been attached to the chain, I checked it twice to make sure that they looked balanced, and well spaced out. Then attached them to the earring hooks with my chain nose pliers.

After taking steps toward ending their road struggles, the Utah Jazz would like to do the same in the second game of back-to-back situations. That could prove difficult against the Indiana Pacers, who have been resilient when facing that challenge. The Jazz will try to snap a three-game losing streak in the second game of back-to-backs on Wednesday night when they visit the Pacers, who are 5-2 in those situations. Even though they've won eight of 11 overall against the Pacers, the Jazz have never won at Indiana in the second game of a back-to-back (0-6). Utah is just 2-4 in those games this season. The Jazz (14-12) look to put an end to those streaks after they came from 13 down at halftime to win 92-90 at Brooklyn on Tuesday night. Despite turning it over twice in the final 31 seconds, Utah survived a pair of misses on the Nets' final possession to win for the second time in three road games after a 3-9 start. "The game, we still pulled it out, that's all that matters," said ...

Pope Benedict's March trip, his first trip to Mexico, will include a stop at El Cubilete. To those outside Mexico, it seems like an obscure choice. Mexicans, however, are not surprised at all: El Cubilete is considered the second most important religious site in the country.
Pope Benedict will celebrate Mass at the foot of El Cubilete Hill, the site of the colossal statue of Cristo Rey (Christ the King). With its height of 9,000 feet, El Cubilete looks much more like an imposing mountain than a hill. The statue was declared a national monument in 1928. Cristo Rey can be compared to Poland's ark church of Nowa Huta, the major symbol of Catholic Poland's resistance to the anti-religious...READ MORE

The New York Times reports that Syria has fired scud missiles at rebel fighters:
Read more...
Steve Hayes, with A.B. Stoddard and Charles Krauthammer, last night on Fox News:
Two technology firms that monitor global Internet traffic report that Syria has been cut off from the Internet. Regular landline phone and cell phones services have been affected as well, Syrian opposition activist Ammar Abdulhamid told me. "Therefore, the possibility of accidental damage can be discounted," said Abdulhamid. "This is something done intentionally by the regime, and reflects growing desperation on account of the recent advances made by rebels, especially in Damascus."
Yesterday a car bomb in Beirut killed a senior Lebanese security chief along with seven others, while wounding hundreds in Ashrafiyeh, a busy neighborhood in Christian-majority East Beirut. The target, Brig. Gen. Wissam al-Hassan, was close to former prime minister Saad Hariri and his late father, Rafik Hariri. Yesterday evening, Hariri supporters, mostly Sunnis, closed down roads and burned tires in protest against the assassins, almost certainly tied to the Syrian regime and their Lebanese ally Hezbollah.
After almost a week of exchanging fire with Syrian troops across its southern border, Turkey finds itself embroiled on another, albeit related, international front. Wednesday the Turkish air force scrambled two jets to intercept a Syrian passenger jet flying from Moscow to Damascus.
Later this morning, in remarks at the Virginia Military Institute, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney will say:
Aleppo, Syria
In Beirut last week, former Lebanese MP and cabinet member Michel Samaha was arrested and later confessed to "planning terrorist attacks in Lebanon at Syrian orders."
Earlier this month, 48 Iranian Shiite "pilgrims" were abducted in Damascus. The Free Syrian Army claims they were members of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, who have been dispatched to Syria to protect one of Tehran's vital interests, Bashar al-Assad's regime.
Bill Kristol, with Juan Williams and Charles Krauthammer, last night on Fox News:
On Wednesday, July 18, a bomb killed at least three top officials from Bashar al Assad's crumbling regime. Among them was Assef Shawkat, the deputy defense minister and former head of Syrian military intelligence.
In Damascus this morning a bomb at the National Security building killed several members of Bashar al-Assad's "crisis cell" —a group of key regime figures tasked to put down the 16-month uprising against the Assad regime. Interior minister Mohammed al-Shaar and head of national security General Hisham Ikhtiyar, are reportedly wounded.
Advocates of robust American action in Syria to help remove Bashar al-Assad from power have typically made two arguments.
Senators John McCain, Joe Lieberman, and Lindsey Graham released the following statement on Syria:
The Syrian regime has reportedly perpetrated another episode of sectarian cleansing. Yesterday, the army and paramilitary gangs loyal to president Bashar al-Assad killed more than 200 people in the Sunni village of Tremseh, in Hama province.

Rated 93 by Robert Parker
Fully blended and about to be bottled, the 2010 Cote Rotie Brune et Blonde is more serious, with obvious structure and density. Fabulously perfumed, with violets, black pepper, bacon fat, coffee bean and striking minerality, this medium to full-bodied effort is concentrated, layered and brilliantly focused, with fine tannin lending edge and cut through the finish. Give it another 3-4 years in the cellar and enjoy it through 2030.

Vintage: 2010
2010 saw extremely high quality viticulture in many parts of the world, with an exceptionally long and hot summer providing huge benefits for wineries across many countries, especially in the southern hemisphere. The northern hemisphere and Europe saw something of a cooler summer and flowering period, but this was by no means as disastrous as it could have been. France, especially, had a fantastic year in 2010, with the world renowned Burgundy region proclaiming that their white wines of this year are ones to look out for, and despite yields being relatively small across much of the country, the quality was exceptionally high. Spain, too, received some cooler weather, but Rioja and the rest of central Spain are hailing 2010 as a very good year indeed, again as a result of smaller, finer yields. California also received similar climatic conditions, but again, wineries are highly positive about the overall effect this had on their produce, as the slightly challenging conditions resulted in smaller yields of much elegance and distinction. 2010 was really Australia's year, and in South Australia and across the Mornington Peninsula, Chardonnay vines produced good yields with a lower sugar level than in previous years. As such, the majority of South Australian white wines from 2010 are superb, and packed full of character. Shiraz also had a great year, and most Australian wineries have been proclaiming 2010 one of the great vintages. Both the Argentinian and Chilean wine industries benefited from some ideal climatic conditions this year, and are reportedly ecstatically pleased with the fact that their 2010 wines ended up with lower alcohol levels, and were beautifully balanced wines packed full of flavor.
Varietal: Syrah
There continues to be much debate surrounding the name of the Shiraz/Syrah grape varietal, with many experts still quite unsure which came first. Indeed, even the origins of this varietal are more or less unknown, despite it being most commonly associated with the Rhone Valley of France, and New World countries, most notably Australia. However, its popularity and unique characteristics have seen it planted all over the world, where it continues to impress with its powerful flavors and wonderfully spicy notes of pepper and clove. Shiraz/Syrah wines are renowned also for their versatility, and are regularly used in single variety still and sparkling wines, as well as blended and oak aged wines which demonstrate its ability to express its terroir and secondary flavors very well.
Region: Rhone Valley
In southern France, one of the primary wine regions responsible for the production of a fine and varied range of wines is the Rhone Valley. Split into two large sub-regions, this expansive valley benefits from micro-climates which allow the wineries to grow a vast array of fine grape varietals. The northern region is the more limited one in regards to the amount of varietals grown, focusing predominantly on raising excellent quality Syrah, Marsanne, Roussane and Viognier vines for their distinctive and elegant range of wines. The southern region, on the other hand, has a beautifully Mediterranean climate, and is home to dozens of grape varietals which are used to produce white, red and rosé wines, alongside some of the most famous and widely loved blended wines in the world.
Country: France
Year in, year out, France enjoys its prestigious reputation as the producer of the finest wines in the world. With a wine making history which spans several thousand years and owes its expertise to the Romans, it comes as little surprise that this most highly esteemed of the Old World wine countries continues to impress and enchant both novices and experts to this day. Despite the rise in quality of wines from neighboring European countries, not to mention the New World, the French wine industry continues to boom, with up to eight billion bottles being produced in recent years. However, France prides itself on always putting quality before quantity, and the wide range in fine produce is a testament to the dedication and knowledge of the wineries across the country. Indeed, from rich and complex reds to light and aromatic white wines, French wines are as varied and interesting as they are enjoyable to drink, making this country a firm favorite for wine lovers across the globe.

4 Surprising Findings About Kids' and Teens' Reading, Plus What You Can Do to Help Kids Read More
Do you have a teen who hardly reads? You're not alone. Common Sense Media's latest research report, "Children, Teens, and Reading," shows that adolescents aren't reading for fun much anymore, and their reading achievement hasn't increased for over two decades. What's more, large segments of the population -- black and Latino (compared with white) kids, and boys (compared with girls) in general -- are falling behind.
We reviewed large, national surveys and databases and found trends on kids' reading rates, reading scores, and more. Here's a sampling:
>>Reading rates have dropped precipitously among adolescents.
- 53% of 9-year-olds vs. 17% of 17-year-olds are daily readers.
- The proportion who "never" or "hardly ever" read tripled since 1984. A third of 13-year-olds and 45% of 17-year-olds say they've read for pleasure one to two times a year, if that.
>>Reading achievement among older teens has stagnated.
- Reading scores of 9- and 13-year-olds have improved, but those of 17-year-olds haven't changed in 30 years.
>>There's a persistent gap in reading scores between white, black, and Latino kids.
- 18% black and 20% Latino fourth-graders are rated as "proficient" in reading compared with 46% of white kids at that age (this gap has been relatively unchanged over two decades).
>>There's also a gender gap in reading across ages.
- Girls read 10 minutes more per day than boys on average.
- 12% more girls are rated as proficient in reading than boys.
In a way, the report's findings about teens aren't surprising. Older kids have always read less than younger ones, as the multiple demands of growing up take over. For many, there's simply no time to juggle reading for pleasure with schoolwork, afterschool activities, sports, homework, jobs, and socializing. But some kids are managing to fit it in. Here's how you can help:
Walk the talk. Our study shows parents of frequent readers vs. infrequent readers are more likely to read themselves.
Provide the opportunity. Parents of frequent readers vs. infrequent readers are more likely to keep books at home. Check out our Essential Books Guide and recommended lists of books for tweens and teens to keep up a steady stream.
Set aside time … for them. Look at your kids' schedules and see if there's something you can help take off their plates. Parents of frequent readers vs. infrequent readers are more likely to set aside time for kids to read each day.
Discover pockets of reading. Our study shows people are undecided about whether ebooks are preferable to print books, but we say take it where you can get it. If reading a whole book is too much, almost everything else counts as long as it doesn't spiral down into distraction. Reading fan fiction from his favorite video game? Check. Reading the news on his phone? Check. Reading Wikipedia pages when she's curious about something? Check. Reading blog posts about an interesting topic? Check. Reading The Fault in Our Stars on his ereader or tablet? Definitely check!
Talk to the teacher. Reading scores are important because they're indicators of how kids are doing across most school subjects. If your kid's scores are flagging, find out from his teacher what she -- or school policies -- can do to help.
Start early. Although it's never too late, it's much easier to build habits when kids are young and impressionable. Raise a reader by encouraging your little one.
Help kids connect. When kids can relate personally to a story's characters and circumstances, they may read more. Seek out reading material with diverse characters and situations to encourage kids who may feel as if they don't see themselves reflected in most books.

STATE BRIDGE — For many Coloradans, the September equinox signals the perfect time to hop in a car and head out to the state's unrivaled mountain network of scenic byways for a chance to glance at autumn aspen in their full fall splendor.
For Arn Menconi, it signals the finest time of year to hop in the saddle and ride.
"The golden aspen sure do give you something nice to look at while you are feeling the pain of climbing," said Menconi, executive director of the Vail Velo cycling club. "And the weather is perfect."
The former Eagle County commissioner, who also is founder of the SOS Outreach nonprofit organization that uses adventure sports to help guide troubled teens, knows as well as anyone the benefits of biking, both on and off road. At age 50, he's finished 11 100-mile mountain bike races, using the road bike as a way to build up his mileage base.
"I'm pretty much 50-50, but you just can't do as many miles on a mountain bike," Menconi said. "It's just so easy to get on the road and start spinning. You don't really have to think."
Menconi's Eagle County home benefits from portions of two of the state's 23 scenic byways passing through it: the spectacular if sometimes demoralizing Top of the Rockies route also known to cyclists as the Copper Triangle/Leadville Loop (connecting Vail, Leadville and Copper Mountain via U.S. 24 past Camp Hale), and the less steep Colorado River Headwaters Byway, passing between Colorado 131 at State Bridge and Granby by way of U.S. 40 (connected by the largely unpaved Trough Road).
And while he's ridden segments of both, his preference is for the river route, tacking a corner of the "official" scenic byway onto the no-less-magnificent Colorado River Road downstream from State Bridge to Dotsero. The route serves as a cornerstone to the annual 100-mile Colorado Eagle River Ride produced as a benefit for SOS Outreach, combining riverside riding with mountain vistas and glowing aspen and cottonwood trees.
"It's the most beautiful ride I've ever been on, and I've done quite a few," Menconi said. "It's sort of our version of the Paris-Roubaix (a classic French bicycle race famous for its cobblestoned route), but the 12 miles of hardpack dirt rides just as well as a chip-and-seal road."
They call them scenic byways for a reason, but nowhere in their descriptions does it say they are limited to four-wheel touring. Here are a few suggestions for routes that cyclists are sure to enjoy this autumn:
NORTHWEST Colorado River Headwaters
The 25-mile segment of U.S. 40 running through Hot Sulphur Springs between Granby and Kremmling is a roadie's dream. Tack on 15 miles more to Grand Lake at the foot of Rocky Mountain National Park and it has the makings of the perfect fall ride — complete with a babbling brook that crescendos as it carves through redrock gorges and lush meadows on its way to Gore Canyon. It should be noted the unpaved Trough Road connector isn't well suited to a road bike. An out-and-back ride to Kremmling is probably a better option, or consider looping over Gore Pass to Toponas for an epic that leaves the riverbank.
Tour: Grand Lake (U.S. 34) to Granby (U.S. 40) to Kremmling (Colorado 9) to State Bridge (Colorado 131)
Length: 80 miles
Contact: Granby Chamber of Commerce, 970-887-2311
CENTRAL Peak to Peak
Less than an hour's drive from Denver, Boulder or Fort Collins, this showcase of the Front Range provides views of the Continental Divide and the surrounding Arapaho and Roosevelt National Forests. The string of popular outdoor attractions also includes Rocky Mountain National Park, Golden Gate Canyon State Park, Indian Peaks Wilderness Area and Eldora Ski Area. It's a high-elevation ride with plenty of hills crammed into 55 miles. It's the state's oldest scenic byway, established in 1918.
Tour: Estes Park (Colorado 7) to Allenspark (Colorado 72) to Central City/Black Hawk (Colorado 119)
Length: 55 miles
Contact: Boulder Convention and Visitors Bureau, 303-442-2911
NORTHEAST South Platte River Trail
It's the shortest of the state's scenic byways, but there's plenty of room to roam surrounding this 19-mile loop. The South Platte offers watchable wildlife along the original Pony Express route, and historical markers commemorate the Lincoln Highway, the nation's first coast-to-coast auto road.
Tour: Colorado 138 between Ovid and Julesburg
Length: 19 miles
Contact: Sedgwick County Economic Development, 970-474-3504, rivertrailonline.org
WEST Grand Mesa Scenic Byway
From Interstate 70, the byway climbs through the picturesque Plateau Creek canyon to the 11,000-foot summit of the world's largest flattop mountain. The route's panoramic view is accented by open parks, forests of aspen and evergreen, gently rolling hills and some 300 lakes scattered across the mesa. Changes in elevation between Plateau Creek and Cedaredge take riders through a variety of ecological transitions.
Tour: Colorado 65 from Mesa to Cedaredge with optional spurs
Length: 63 miles
Contact: Grand Mesa Byway Association, 800-436-3041, grandmesabyway.org
SOUTH CENTRAL Gold Belt Tour
This mining town tour is a potential monster circuit of 131 miles along narrow roads clinging to canyon walls. In addition to seeing the historic gold camps of Cripple Creek, Florence, Victor and Cañon City, the route includes views of Pikes Peak and the spectacular Royal Gorge. Mueller State Park and noteworthy fossil beds also line the course, though it's probably best for bikers to bypass Upper Shelf Road, recommended for 4WD only.
Tour: A few variations can be done between U.S. 24 near Florissant (connecting High Park Road with Phantom Canyon Road) and U.S. 50 near Cañon City. Look for scenic byway signs and check local information.
Length: 50 miles, including side routes to 131 miles
