By Julie Muhlstein Herald Writer
EVERETT — They love books and libraries. Her favorite authors are Jane Austen, David James Duncan and Robertson Davies. He likes Raymond Chandler, Rudyard Kipling and Bill Bryson. They also love each other.
Friday morning, in a place that's sacred to them, Barbara Morrow and David Kurland exchanged vows. Librarian Theresa Gemmer officiated at their wedding in the Everett Public Library's Northwest History Room. Gemmer, ordained by the Universal Life Church Monastery, said she has performed about 20 weddings.
In one sweet moment, Morrow started to cry while reciting words they had written together. As she promised to "love you today, tomorrow and forever" and to "always be open, honest and faithful to you," she paused a moment, then said, "We wrote too much stuff."
"That was one of the loveliest ceremonies I've ever seen," said Christine Hansen, the couple's friend and an official witness along with Gary Evans. The brief ceremony happened an hour before the library opened at 10 a.m. After the wedding, library staff enjoyed several kinds of cake.
The couple didn't have far to go to get to the wedding on time. Home is a fourth-floor apartment at Library Place, a downtown apartment complex next to the Everett library.
A week ago, over coffee at their apartment, they told their grown-up love story. It's one of hope, faith in new beginnings, and a belief that love is worth the trouble it takes to find it.
"I had been a single woman for a long time," Morrow, 66, said last week. A psychiatric nurse, she was divorced years ago and has a grown daughter.
Kurland, 64, was living in Bellingham when he and Morrow met about two years ago through the dating website Match.com.
"We both spent a lot of time looking for each other. We wanted the possibility of happiness," said Kurland, who relocated after doing computer graphics for an architectural business in New Mexico. He has also worked as a pastry chef and repaired violins.
When layoffs came in the architectural firm, Kurland followed a longtime dream of moving to the Northwest. He doesn't like the sun. Morrow moved here about 20 years ago to escape Wisconsin's extreme weather.
Kurland, who was also married before, has two sons. One works in Europe, the other is a doctor in New Mexico. Morrow's daughter Rachel and son-in-law John Steendahl live in Seattle.
It was the written word that first attracted Kurland to Morrow's profile on the dating site. "I just wanted to have lunch with the woman who could write like that," he said. They exchanged email before agreeing to meet in a public place.
It didn't take long to see how their lives fit together. As a boy, Kurland spent time with relatives in Scotland, and in his 20s he took a freighter to Yugoslavia. He also taught English in Morocco. Morrow worked on a kibbutz in Israel as a young woman. "It was fascinating to see how other people lived," she said.
There were barriers to their relationship. Morrow had two cats, and Kurland is allergic to cats. He lived in Bellingham, and for a time Morrow spent weekends there. Her elderly cats died. And with Morrow's job at GroupHealth in Everett, the move to Library Place made sense.
Wherever they go, they visit libraries. "Libraries are full of ideas. A person needs lots of ideas. And we both love words," Kurland said. "We are the ultimate nerds."
The couple, who were registered as domestic partners with the state, began thinking of marriage because of Social Security benefits. They considered a courthouse wedding, but decided to ask about a library ceremony.
Joan Blacker, the librarian they first approached with the idea, joked Friday that she became "their wedding planner." Everett Public Library Director Eileen Simmons said their wedding wasn't a first. A couple was married last year on the library's outside balcony. No wedding fees were charged, Simmons said.
The newlyweds will wait until spring for a honeymoon, perhaps to Victoria, B.C. At home, they make books romantic. "We like reading out loud to each other," Morrow said.
After cutting the cake, it occurred to the bride that she could take care of a small detail.
"I have to renew my library card," she said. "I got an email about that, but I was waiting for my name change."

Guiding Your Bowdoin Student
One Of The Most Powerful Tools In Our Approach To Career Planning Is You.
Surveys show that parents play a more influential role in their children's career decision-making process than ever before. A parent offers years of professional experience, connections, and sound advice for students entering the professional realm for the first time. Bowdoin Career Planning is here to help guide you through this time as you accept the responsibility of listening to and supporting your son or daughter through the exploration and pursuit of a career path.
The Question Isn't Whether Or Not You Can Make A Difference.
It's How Big It Will Be.
Our goal at Bowdoin Career Planning is to help your child leverage the skills they have developed as a liberal arts student in the professional world. Our distinct three-phase approach to career planning allows your son or daughter to Explore, Experience, and Pursue various career paths.
A Voice That Matters Is A Voice That Is Heard.
As a parent, you're in a unique position to help your son or daughter fully engage in our three phases of career planning. First, we urge you to encourage your son or daughter to engage in career exploration as early as his or her first year — there is a strong correlation between early effort and results in the job search. For many, the best way to begin is to meet with one of our Explore stage Career Advisors, advisors that guide each student in a process of self-assessment and discovery.
Okay, So Maybe They Still Don't Make Their Beds.
But There's Hope — The Stakes Are Much Higher Now.
One way to increase the chance of success is to encourage participation in the Bowdoin Career Planning student website. It's our dynamic website with expert blogs and sector specific advice videos and content dedicated to sharing practical and tactical information and tools about a myriad of career paths.
Another thing you can do is encourage updating of his or her eBear profile. eBear is Bowdoin's recruiting website, full of jobs and internships, but it's also the master calendar of career related events and workshops. The more we know about your son or daughter's interests, the more we can help.
If They Try It, They Might Like It.
Three summers – that's all the warm weather that stands between a first-year student and the "real world" beyond Bowdoin. By encouraging your son or daughter to seek meaningful summer internships, you increase the chances that he or she will find early career satisfaction. It's a great way to get a realistic perspective of careers they're considering, and to learn early on if an industry or field is a good match for their skills and personalities. Urge them as well to maximize the use of their winter and spring breaks. Those present great opportunities for a short internship, networking meetings, or shadowing experience.

I already have most of the code to successfully float my sidebar and make it follow your scrollbar.
The problem I have however, is that there is a small margin between the sidebar and the footer when the scrollbar reaches its end.
How do I correct this little margin? Nothing, that important but I do want to fix it badly.
About tab
There's a large margin on my screen, because the floating part is fixed to the top of the page.
What seems to be worse though, is when you resize the browser window so that the floating part is taller than what can fit on the screen. When you then scroll to the end, the floating part pushes the footer further away.
so how can I get this to work? i just want the sidebar to follow you so that its visible when you scroll from where it is initially positioned to the footer all the way down.
It seems that you are wanting different things depending on where the scroll is. At the top of the page you want the floating sidebar to be aligned with the top, and at the bottom of the page you want it aligned with the bottom.
What happens when you've scrolled half-way down? Do you want the floating sidebar to still be aligned with the top of the screen? What then when further down? Do you want it aligned still with the top, or with the bottom?
Or do you want it to gradually move down the screen as you scroll down, so that when you've scrolled halfway, the floating sidebar will also be halfway down the screen, and when you've scrolled to the bottom the sidebar is at the bottom too.
Give some details of what you actually want, because what I've just described are only a few of the possible scenarios.
Yes, what I wish to achieve is your last scenario, except bottom is footer
Okay then, what do you need to know in order to achieve that?
how i can edit my current code to do what i want with no glitch
That is something that involves quite a few calculations. You'll need to know the bottom of the header and the top of the footer, and from their difference remove the height of the floating sidebar. What remains is the total amount of movable distance for the floating sidebar.
From that movable difference, you would then want to position the floating sidebar along that section based on the percentage of the page that has been scrolled.
That percentage starts from when the bottom of the header is at the top of the page, and ends when the top of the footer is at the bottom of the page. In between those two extremes is the area of interest, and it's how far that the page has scrolled between those two points which determines how far to push the floating sidebar down the page.
It all gets rather complex really, but if you put your mind to it you can sort it out. We can definitely help you to answer any questions about how to do any parts that you might get stuck on.
OK, I came up with this code but it doesn't seem to work
$(window).scroll(function() {
var dynamicSidebarHeight = $('#sidebar').height();
if ($(window).height() > dynamicSidebarHeight) {
var fixedFooterOffset = 350;
var scrollTo = $(window).scrollTop()
var calculatedMaxTop = $('#footer').offset().top - dynamicSidebarHeight - fixedFooterOffset;
var fixedHeaderOffset = 400;
var viewportHeight = $(window).height();
if (scrollTo > calculatedMaxTop) {
scrollTo = calculatedMaxTop;
else if (scrollTo < fixedHeaderOffset) {
scrollTo = 0;
scrollTo -= fixedHeaderOffset - viewportHeight/2;
{ top: scrollTo + 'px' },
{ queue: false, duration: 500, easing: 'easeInOutSine' }
It seems like that element doesn't want to reposition itself according to the top property. You can try it out with marginTop instead to confirm that the script is running though.
You'll only have refinements to make to the script once you get the sidebar actually moving.
Thanks for helping me and guiding me through, I'm almost there!
The sidebar is scrolling as intended however there are still problems.
When the page isn't long enough, the sidebar should still scroll to the footer, but it doesn't.
Also, when the page is long enough, when the sidebar reaches the footer, it is still possible to scroll even further down infinitely with the sidebar pushing the footer down.
I was wondering if it would be possible to make the footer absolute, but not screw up everything.
There might be a few calculations that need refinement.
The two places that seem to most require checking are shortly after the header has scrolled off the top of the page, and shortly before the footer appears at the bottom of the page.
Nearly all web browsers support console.log() so you should be able to use that to ensure that the numbers make sense.
Did you read my main problems? The answer you have given doesn't seem to answer my problem
OK got it working
$(window).scroll(function() {
var dynamicSidebarHeight = $('#sidebar').height();
if ($(window).height() > dynamicSidebarHeight) {
var fixedFooterOffset = 350;
var scrollTo = $(window).scrollTop()
var calculatedMaxTop = $('#footer').offset().marginTop - dynamicSidebarHeight - fixedFooterOffset;
var fixedHeaderOffset = 350;
if (scrollTo > calculatedMaxTop) {
scrollTo = calculatedMaxTop;
else if (scrollTo < fixedHeaderOffset) {
scrollTo -= fixedHeaderOffset - 350;
else {
scrollTo -= fixedHeaderOffset - 350;
$('#sidebar').animate ({
marginTop: scrollTo + 'px' }, {
queue: false,
duration: 500,
easing: 'easeInOutSine'
The only problem that remains is when I resize the window and scroll down, my second problem reoccurs. It seems the only viable solution would be to make the footer unmovable. How could this be done?
Why is the footer offset explicitly set at 350? Could that be the cause of the problem, and can the value be calculated instead?
shouldnt make a difference as the footer offset only appears in the inequality
That's not the only solution. What seems to be a more viable solution is to ensure that the sidebar is not positioned so low that it causes the footer to be pushed away from it.
That does make sense however I don't know how I can do that
Let's try and figure out how then.
You'll need the calculations used to work out the positioning of the sidebar when you're at the bottom.You'll also need to work out the largest value that the sidebar position can possibly be, before the sidebar starts pushing against the bottom of its container.
Once you have that information, you should be able to update the script so that the sidebar keeps its proper distance away from the bottom of its container.
Got it working like you said, however it wouldn't be possible to have the sidebar hit the footer but not push it?

Cardiovascular specialists at University of Missouri Health Care provide outstanding cardiac care to adult and pediatric patients in the state of Missouri. One of the premier teaching hospitals in the Midwest, University Hospital has a first-rate medical staff and state-of-the-art technology.
Coronary artery disease (also called CAD) is the most common type of heart disease. It's also the number one killer of both men and women in the United States.
Coronary artery disease happens when fatty deposits called plaque (say "plak") build up inside your coronary arteries. Those are the blood vessels that supply blood and oxygen to your heart. Plaque buildup reduces the amount of blood that gets to your heart. It can lead to chest pain or heart attack.
It's not always easy to tell if you're having problems with blood vessels in your heart and your body. You can't feel plaque building up in your arteries. That's a scary thought for anyone who is concerned about high blood pressure or high cholesterol.
Plaque buildup can have long-term effects on your heart and blood flow. And it doesn't just affect your heart. Plaque buildup can happen in your leg arteries too. Our heart and valve specialists at University of Missouri Health Care can help you find what tests, lifestyle changes, and treatments are right for you.

Carrie Underwood donates $1 million Red Cross for tornado relief
Listen to Carrie Underwood on iHeartRadio
Carrie Underwood is giving the American Red Cross "a little extra help" - to the tune of $1 million. The Oklahoma-born country star announced the sizeable donation on Thursday.
She explains in a statement that she's "watched the devastation" in her home state over the past several days "with great sadness." She credits her fans for making her "Blown Away" tour a success, which is enabling her to "offer the Red Cross a little extra help in comforting those affected by the recent tornados."
And thanks to all who came to a show during this entire tour! I hope you all feel great about the Red Cross contribution that WE made today!— Carrie Underwood (@carrieunderwood) May 24, 2013
And the Red Cross appreciates Underwood's generosity. The organization's Neal Litvack says the "road to recovery will be long for many families," not just in Oklahoma but in other tornado-ravaged communities in the Midwest.
He adds that Carrie's donation will enable the Red Cross to "quickly respond with shelter, food and comfort now, and with lasting help" throughout the storm recovery process.

All that's missing is the beach…
Speak to anyone who has been to Mozambique and they'll soon be waxing lyrical about the food – mountains of piri piri prawns served with a cold cerveza (beer) and a view of the ocean.
The good news is that the Southern Sun OR Tambo International Airport hotel is offering a 'Savour the Sizzle of Mozambique' three-course dinner buffet from 7 to 9 May.
Three senior chefs from Maputo Sun – Jose Cossa, Adamuji Jorge and Carlos Matlombe – will be cooking up a proverbial storm for diners keen to try out specialities such as roasted suckling pig, roasted red snapper and a multitude of other tasty delicacies.
So what can you expect?
Well, the cuisine of neighbouring Mozambique has been influenced by Portugal, yet retains a rich African interpretation inspired by fresh local produce. Flavour is the heartbeat of any Mozambican dish, and chillies, lemon juice and spices are always an integral part of any meal, as is its famous piri piri sauce (a traditional hot sauce added to most seafood dishes).
The use of wine in Mozambican cooking came from Portugal and you might want to try out matata (a dish made of clams cooked in wine, fruit/vegetables and peanuts); or how about a frango a cafrial, a chicken that has been rubbed with piri piri and roasted over the hot coals? You could try the bacalau (cod) or lemony calamari, or, if you're watching your waistline, a traditional avocado salad.
If you have a taste for unapologetically spicy food, then book your place at the 'Savour the Sizzle of Mozambique' event and fuel your food memories for years to come.
Lobster salad is also an option, while many dishes contain cashew nuts and/or coconut. Many Mozambiquan curries are served with a mango atchar (chutney). You might also want to try some local wines or port to accompany your meal. Of course, you can always finish off with a delicious pasteis de nata (Portuguese custard cups).
If you have a taste for unapologetically spicy food, then book your place at the 'Savour the Sizzle of Mozambique' event and fuel your food memories for years to come. The three-night festival of Mozambiquan cuisine promises to be a fun affair – and while the views of the ocean might not be part of the scenery, great food, excellent wine and superb company certainly will be.
Make sure you bring a healthy appetite along!

Teegen to step down from Moore School dean position
Contact Wes Hickman, firstname.lastname@example.com, 803-777-3478
Hildy Teegen, dean, University of South Carolina Darla Moore School of Business, is stepping down to engage in other opportunities in her discipline and to explore new ways to lead in South Carolina's education and business communities.
Hildy Teegen
Teegen, dean since Fall 2007, will carry out her duties until her successor is identified, and then embark upon a one-year sabbatical beginning in Fall 2013. Afterward, she will return to the classroom and to her research program concerning business, government and non-profit interactions and economic development. Teegen has written extensively about global business and is best known for her work concerning intersectoral engagement. Her expertise complements USC's top-ranked international business department, to which she intends to return after her sabbatical.
A national search for a new dean for the Moore School will begin immediately, Michael Amiridis, USC provost, said.
"Dr. Teegen has led the Moore School through amazing transformation, and soon, because of her leadership, we will have a new building to house the excellence that has followed our business programs for many years. She has unique skills and relationships established in South Carolina that will, after her sabbatical, continue to advance USC's outreach efforts in the business community. I look forward to new endeavors and new leadership opportunities with her over time."
Prior to coming to USC in September 2007, Teegen was (founding) director of The George Washington University's Center for International Business Education and Research (CIBER) in Washington, D.C., and served on the faculty in international business. She served on the Association for the Advancement of Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB) Globalization Taskforce from 2008-2011. She is a board member of Blue Ridge Holdings and Certus Bank, the United Way of the Midlands, the Palmetto Institute, the Center for International Private Enterprise, the Midlands Business Leadership Group Executive Committee and (formerly) Engenuity SC. She is a member of the Young Presidents Organization, the Aspen Global Leaders Network and is a Liberty Fellow (S.C.). She earned her doctoral degree in international business and bachelor's degrees in business administration and Latin American Studies – all from the University of Texas.
"The time is right for a transition in leadership and for my own academic and career development," Teegen said. "A new building coming online, a strong academic curriculum and national standing, new graduate delivery systems and ways to access an MBA – everything at the University of South Carolina's Darla Moore School of Business points to future success for this institution I have grown to love in my years as dean. I am honored to have been a part of this growth. I will look forward to returning to help nurture it – just in a different capacity."
During her tenure as dean, Teegen completed a rigorous strategic and financial planning effort and developed a strong leadership team that has taken the Moore School in new directions.
A hallmark of her administration stems from leadership in planning and financing in support of the new sustainable academic building currently under construction at Assembly and Greene streets in Columbia. Through her advancement leadership, nearly $50 million in private funding has been secured to support the school. During this time, the Moore School entered into a partnership with Polycom, CISCO and AT&T and now offers a world-class high definition telepresence network enabling multimodal learning programming around the state with connectivity to firms and academic institutions around the world. New programs including an Accelerated Master of Business Administration program were developed during her tenure and the international business mission was advanced as new programs emerged with a range of partners, including the Chinese University of Hong Kong and a new undergraduate course in international business became a requirement for all business majors.
"It was a pleasure working with Dr. Teegen over these past five years and watching how the Moore School of Business continued to grow in reputation and scope, " said Darla Moore, vice president of Rainwater, Inc. and USC alumna, '75, for whom the Moore School of Business is named. "She brought a fresh perspective, an energy that was contagious, and she connected the School to South Carolina's businesses and leaders. She made this place better. I applaud her leadership and will look forward to new contributions she will make to our state in the future."
About the Darla Moore School of Business
The Darla Moore School of Business is among the highest-ranked business schools in the world for international business education and research. Founded in 1919, the school has a history of innovative educational leadership, blending academic preparation with real-world experience through internships, consulting projects, study-abroad programs and entrepreneurial opportunities. The Moore School offers undergraduate, master's and doctoral degrees, as well as distinctive executive education programs. In 1998, the school was named for South Carolina native Darla Moore, making the University of South Carolina the first major university to name its business school after a woman.

Yo Quiero: TACO BELL for a $1!!!
Taco Bell is going after the one-dollar dining crowd.
Today, the chain launches a new Dollar Cravings menu nationally, directly aimed at stealing market share from McDonald's, Wendy's and Burger King.
Dollar deals are often not that any more. Last year, McDonald's launched its so-called Dollar Menu & More Menu with some items priced up to $2.
So what's Taco Bell got for a buck? Among the 11 items: Shredded Chicken Mini Quesadilla, Beefy Fritos Burrito, Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrito, and Triple Layer Nachos.

IRS: Hey, We Targeted Lefty Groups, Too
(NEWSER) – The IRS is defending itself against the Inspector General's report on its targeting of Tea Party groups, saying they made up only a "minority" of the 471 political nonprofit groups scrutinized. And, hey, three—three!—of those 471 were Democrat-leaning groups, including one, Emerge America, that was actually denied tax-exempt status, Bloomberg reports. "[It is] important to understand that the group of centralized cases included organizations of all political views," the IRS said in a statement. It also said that although "Inappropriate shortcuts" were used to identify some of the groups, most of them would have still been singled out for extra scrutiny had the agency gone about it correctly, reports ABC.

Trail of Tears
From the 1830s to the 1840s, the Five Tribes were forcibly removed from their homelands and forced to travel to Indian Territory. The Five Tribes include the Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw, and Seminole. Each one of these tribes had their own "Trail of Tears" as they were marched to Indian Territory by the US government. Without enough supplies, many American Indians died on these trips, often more than a thousand miles long. Many American Indians died from disease and exposure to harsh weather on the trip as well. Once in Indian Territory the US government left them without adequate supplies, leading to more deaths. This information is important to know because it changed American Indian culture and their relationship with the United States government forever.

Apple's iPad (IW 500/14) outmuscled its Android-powered tablet computer rivals in early 2012, in a global market suffering from post-holiday hangover, a survey showed May 3.
Global shipments of tablet devices and e-readers slumped 38.4% in the first three months of 2012 to 17.4 million, compared with a fourth quarter pumped up by the holiday gift-giving season, according to research firm IDC.
But year-over-year, tablet sales were up a whopping 120%, in a market shifting away from desktop and laptop computers.
"Apple reasserted its dominance in the market this quarter, driving huge shipment totals at a time when all but a few Android vendors saw their numbers drop precipitously after posting big gains during the holiday buying season," said Tom Mainelli of IDC.
"Apple's move to position the iPad as an all-purpose tablet, instead of just a content consumption device, is resonating with consumers as well as educational and commercial buyers. And its decision to keep a lower-priced iPad 2 in the market after it launched the new iPad in March seems to be paying off as well."
Apple shipped 11.8 million iPads during the quarter, down from 15.4 million units in the fourth quarter of 2011, as its worldwide share rose to 68% from 54.7%.
Amazon saw a precipitous drop to 4% of the market, compared with 16.8% in the fourth quarter, and slipped to third place overall.

The screen capture above is dated 13 February 2011.
Compare to last month's quote from the people behind this test:
[The upper leadership behind the Soldier Fitness Tracker] says the training module only offers ideas for developing one's spiritual side. It is not mandatory and has no effect on one's career. – 13 January 2011. [Source: NPR]
Keep in mind, even if this training was optional (which it decidedly does not appear to be), the offensive test itself is not. After you complete the test, you are 'treated' to an informative results screen that says this:
If the above statement was true, the training should be mandatory! Additionally, if the goal of this test is to reduce PTSD and suicide rates, then it should be mandatory. Also, it should be explicitly inclusive of the thousands of foxhole atheists in the army, or the countless number of soldiers who don't think that religion has any place in judging how 'fit' or 'resilient' a person is.
If you were to scrap all the theological / meta-physical / quasi-religious / explicitly religious verbage from the spiritual fitness remedial training, you wouldn't be left with much substance. Whatever scraps are leftover could easily fit into the reality-based sections: Emotional, Social, Family.
Preventing suicide, and dealing with PTSD are very serious and noble goals. That is exactly why this test and training need to strive to do this right. As it stands, the Spirituality component to the Comprehensive Soldier Fitness program can and does lead to very dangerous situations for our nation's warriors. Do you remember the soldiers who were forced to see their Chaplain because they failed this test? The Chaplains told the soldiers that it was an opportunity to get 'born again'.
This is more than a hypothetical slippery slope. This is a very real avalanche, and this program is still in its infancy! Imagine what would happen if this was legitimized with years of mandated use, becoming an irreparable establishment of the status quo. How many more similar situations would arise?
Hopefully in the end, they will do more than just a lipstick on a pig treatment of slight alterations. Let's all hope this thing gets fixed, in a real and meaningful way.

Delas Frères cultivates vineyards on the steep granite slopes of the northern Rhône, in some of the region's most prestigious appellations. Additional grapes are supplied through long-term agreements with southern Rhone growers dedicated to providing only top quality grapes.
Crafted by winemaker Jacques Grange to epitomize finesse and elegance, recent Delas Frères vintages from the vineyards of Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage, Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Côte Rôtie, Condrieu, Côtes-du-Rhône and Côtes-du-Ventoux have won renewed praise for their intensity of flavor and excellent value. View all Delas Freres Wines
About Cotes du RhoneView a map of Cotes du Rhone wineries
The appellation of Côtes du Rhône encompasses much of the land of the area, not to mention much of the wine – over two-thirds of the wine produced here is of the Côtes-du-Rhône appellation. Wines here need only be from the Côtes de Rhône geographic area (which is fairly large) and consist of one or more of the 22 varieties permitted. Being such a wide classification, it's a surprise and joy that so many of these wines reach such a high quality. While there are areas in the Northern Rhône that meet the classification of Côtes du Rhône, most all of this appellation is in the Southern Rhône. Wines here are based mostly on Grenache, like other Rhône reds, while the whites focus on Marsanne and Roussanne. Viognier is also allowed although typically used in smaller quantities.
Notable FactsThere is one higher level in the Côtes du Rhône called Côtes du Rhône Villages. These wines are from specific village areas that have a few more standards the wine must reach to receive the village label. Some to take note of are Cairanne, Rasteau, Seguret and Beaumes-de-Venise. The good thing about both Côtes du Rhône and Côtes du Rhône Villages is that big producers of the smaller appellations are taking the opportunity and freedom offered by this broad appellation and creating wines of very high quality, and lower in price.
About France - Other regionsWhen it comes to wine, France is a classic. Classic blends, grapes and styles began in the country and they still remain. Think about it - people ask for a Burgundian style Pinot Noir, they refer to wines as Bordeaux or Rhone blends - Champagne even had to pass a law to stop international wineries from putting their region on the label of all sparkling wine.
The top regions of France are: Bordeaux, Burgundy, Champagne, Languedoc-Roussillon, Loire, Rhone. And these regions are so diverse! It makes sense that wine regions throughout the world try to emulate their style. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon and Syrah are no longer French varieties, but international varieties. They may not be the leader of cutting edge technology or value-priced wines, but there is no doubt that they are still producing wines of great quality and diversity.

The heroic sacrifice of a lifeboat volunteer who gave his life to save others has inspired his great grandson from York to run the Great North Run - ten times.
Frank Dalton was serving at Scarborough Lifeboat Station when he joined the crew that launched to the 499-tonne Dutch cargo ship Westkust on December 9 1951.
In raging seas, Frank helped save all ten people on board, 19 miles off Flamborough Head, but paid with his life.
His great-grandson Dan Webster, 35, from Huntington, York, has vowed to run the Great North Run ten times - once for every life saved by his ancestor.
He is now in training to tackle the route for the third time this September in memory of Mr Dalton, who was awarded a posthumous Bronze Medal for Gallantry by the RNLI.
Mr Webster said: "I'm incredibly proud of my family history and the courageous story of my great- grandfather and I'd like to do my bit to honour his memory in support of the RNLI.
"Although I have run in previous years, I started my training in January, knowing I was going to have to work hard.
"I've since lost over four stone and, although I've got a way to go yet, am feeling really good about achieving my personal best."
Hannah Jackson, RNLI Community fundraising manager for torkshire, added: "The RNLI's rich and long heritage is sadly peppered with tragic loss of crew members who made the ultimate sacrifice.
"The fact that courageous individuals such as Frank Dalton still serve as an inspiration is a testament to the bravery and dedication of all RNLI volunteer crews past and present."

X3 Paint Question
I have a nagging question for all you detail guys out there that is driving me crazy. I have a brand new 2013 Alpine White X3 Msport and have sealed the paint with Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealant.
What I've noticed, actually felt, is from day one, even before sealing, the paint feels "gritty" almost metalic like all over. Is this normal with Alpine White BMW X3 paint? I am actually wondering if BMW had a bad batch of clear coat or something. Does this happen? The Wolfgang sealant gives me a nice shine but what's perplexing is how rough paint feels to the hand. It's like rubbing your hand over micro fine sandpaper.
The car felt this way straight out of production and so far hasn't improved after 3 sealant jobs. Does this sound like defective paint? Is this typical with sealants? Would switching to wax help? I'll clay it in the Spring but I don't this isn't the culprit. The car is brand new with only 4000 miles on it. I also have 2 tiny rock chips on the middle of the hood of all odd places so not even a direct hit. Cheap paint! What does a dealer normally charge Per chip?
Thanks for the input! Can't wait to hear what you guys diagnose and order up for a fix.

Also, if the clay bar doesn't help, you should use Iron-X before claying and applying wax. It's literally an after-wash spray you use when preparing the paint for polishing and/or protection. Just make sure you don't leave it on too long (a few minutes should be good enough) and do it out of sunlight.
2008 BMW Individual E66 750Li
2013 Mercedes-Benz S550 4Matic
2013 Infiniti G37x
You should clay the car as soon as possible. Could be that you have over spray on the paint or some surface contaminant. If you take a plastic sandwich bog on your hand and on palm side down rub the surface of the paint. If it feels rough then clay will remove that.
Its Going To Cost How Much???????
I've had a similar thing happen to my car after it was parked under a tree for an afternoon.
The tree shed tiny droplets of sap onto the vehicle, which would not come out with regular washing. The droplets were hardly visible, though the the paint felt rough.
As others have wisely suggested, get yourself some quick detailer to use as lube, and use a fine to medium clay bar. If I could only choose 1 clay bar, I'd go with the medium, as it removes more contamination - but may slightly mar. Marring can be removed with a good polish like Meguiars M205 (either by DA polisher or by hand). Make sure to use good microfiber towels for these processes.
How-To Clay (Courtesy of Detailed Image)
even brand new cars can have / often have paint contamination. As others have said claying would have helped. I'll give a brief summary of best routine for new car.
IMO most dealer prep on brand new cars harms the paint quality rather than helping as they don't have time/take time to do it properly---they do it fast.....
1. wash gently with two bucket method to keep contaminated mitt from rubbing on paint.
2. Iron-X vehicle. It reacts with tiny iron particles embedded into paint that can often be there at delivery. Rail dust (from railraod travel), industrial contamination, etc. Best to do prior to claying as this gets embedded particles and then claying gets surface contamination.
IronX is nasty nasty smelling chemical which turns purple when it meets/disloves iron in paint or on wheel rims (brake dust). Paint will be noticably smoother.
3. wash again.
4. now clay with ultra-fine clay like Pinnacle Ultra Fine Poly clay. Always always use least agressive correction method--not medium clay which can mar clearcoat.
5. Test to see if perfectly smooth.
6. I then prefer to use paint prep like Pinnacle Paint Cleansing Lotion which is non-abrasive polish which gets it even smoother /ready for protection. I use a premium quality dual action machine to safely/effectively do this step.
This step is not absolutely necessary but it's the final prep piece for a perfect job.
7. Wolfgang Deep Gloss Paint Sealent is excellent product BUT prep work/prep results are 95% of the final outcome. I use BlackFire Wet Diamond All Finish Paint Protection which is a sister product to your Wolfgang----both superb.
8. Not necessary step---top with a carnuba wax/ or combo polymer/carnuba product.
There are many other optional steps with wheels/tires, windows, interior, engine bay which I did on my new MB for a grand total of about 40+ hours but they are not as important.
I was hoping for a BMW 5 series Wagon but not available here in US so was forced to go
with MB E Wagon. Good luck with your detailing.
AutoGeek.com is great site for info and products too.
