Guestbook comments from the manager
We are a family of 5 including 3 'children' aged 20, 17 and 15 - we had a wonderful 5-night stay in this beautiful apartment over New Year's 2014. Fantastic location, really lovely space, everything you could need, the owners and their team could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Cannot say enough good things - and also the airport transfers were seamless and the food tour particularly excellent. Roof terrace provides amazing views - especially for watching New Year's Eve fireworks - but is up a few flights of stairs, just as an fyi. Would definitely book this charming apartment again.
Happy Traveller from London

To evaluate the usefulness of integrated positron emission tomography and computed tomography (PET/CT) in staging mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome and to correlate PET/CT data with histopathologic diagnosis of lymph nodes (LNs).A single-center, prospective cohort analysis.Academic referral center for cutaneous lymphoma.Thirteen patients with MF and SS at risk for secondary LN involvement. Interventions Patients were clinically evaluated based on general physical examination, total body skin examination, and laboratory screening. They underwent integrated PET/CT followed by excisional biopsy of LNs.We used PET/CT to assess LN size and metabolic activity. Enlarged LNs were defined as axillary or inguinal LNs with a short axis 1.5 cm or larger; or cervical LN, with a short axis 1.0 cm or larger. We classified LN pathologic results according to National Cancer Institute (LN1-4) and World Health Organization (WHO 1-3) criteria. We quantified PET activity using standardized uptake value (SUV) and correlated with LN grade.Based on CT size criteria alone, only 5 patients had enlarged LNs, whereas PET revealed hypermetabolic LNs in all 13 patients. Six patients had LN1-3, and 7 had effacement of LN architecture by lymphoma cells (LN4). Of the 7 patients with LN4 nodes, 4 had SS, and 3 had tumorous MF. Two patients with LN4 nodes had inguinal LNs smaller than 1.5 cm and would have been assigned an N0 classification without the use of integrated PET/CT. Correlation of SUV with LN grade revealed that LN1-3 nodes were associated with a mean SUV of 2.7 (median SUV, 2.2; range, 2.0-4.7) and LN4 nodes were associated with a mean SUV of 5.4 (median SUV, 3.9; range, 2.1-11.8). Patients with large cell transformation had the highest SUVs.For staging MF and SS, PET/CT was more sensitive in detecting LN involved by lymphoma compared with CT data alone and thus may provide more accurate staging and prognostic information. The intensity of PET activity correlated with histologic LN grade.

Last week I had the opportunity to taste some amazing sparkling, white, roses and red wines from this fabulous region. Here are some of the highlights.
Quaquarini Francesco
Starting with the very refreshing Pinot Nero Brut, I then tasted the 2010 Blau Pinot Nero which is aged one year in barrel and one year in bottle before being released. Next up was the tart and tasty Poggio Anna Barbera (90% Barbera, 10% Croatina), Finally, my favorite which was the Buttafuoco La Guasca (60% Croatina, 30% Barbera, 10% Ughetta di Canneto), just lovely tannins here reminding me very much of a Barbaresco!

Frigid English lifestyle - could not get in
They couldn't have found a better reader for this audiobook; she catches every nuance and modulation. Trouble is, nuance and modulation is about all there is to this novel. It's as though the plot, what little there is, was thrown in as an afterthought once the author had exhausted her supply of metaphors. And what's up with her need to kill off her heroine over and over? At first this seems perplexing, then perverse, and finally boring.
Wonderful book, wonderfully read.
The characters in Kate Atkinson's Life After Life—and I would say in her prior books as well—are drawn so authentically that I'm willing to follow wherever she's willing to write. This is true here as well despite the story's pseudo-science-fiction framework. Normally I'm all in favor of twisty narratives that play with life and death and time, but I didn't feel as engaged with this one. Ursula, the novel's anti-determinist heroine, has so many unique chances at living that the stakes of a normal existence don't apply. It just occurred to me that with Life After Life, Kate Atkinson may have written the most elegant allegory of playing a video game that I've ever read.
I was really looking forward to reading this book. because I've read and loved all of Kate Atkinson's other novels. This one was very disappointing. I don't quite understand why there were so many "lives". It was interesting at first to see how they ended, but after awhile it became tedious. The "lives" were all very interesting and could easily have made a stand alone novel, but having so many seemed pointless. I found it hard to finish and only did so because I wanted to see how it ended. I will say it was interesting learning what life in England was like during WWII.

November 24, 2014
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Netflix is hoping this weekend's release of the resurrected TV series "Arrested Development" will lock up more subscribers to its Internet video service.
The award-winning show about the dysfunctional Bluth family returns Sunday, seven years after its demise. The revival coincides with Netflix's own resounding comeback from a customer and shareholder backlash that had raised doubts about the company's management and future.
Now, Netflix Inc. is winning back subscribers and investors with a bold attempt to establish its $8-per-month service as a home entertainment powerhouse that rivals the broadcast television networks and premium cable channels such as HBO
The next step in that bid comes with the return of "Arrested Development." All 15 new episodes of the series will be simultaneously released at 12:01 a.m. PDT Sunday (3:01 a.m. EDT).

A word from Gattopardo
The Gattopardo restaurant, in the village of Summerseat, nestled in a curve of the River Irwell north of Bury, brings together the best of old and new with an Italian flavour. This contemporary dining room, with its sophisticated monochrome scheme, sleek marble bar and high-beamed ceilings contributing to the feeling of light and space, is a family run venture, created by Sicilians Saverio and Antonio. The Gattopardo – named after the emblem of the village where the owners were raised, 'gattopardo' translated as 'leopard' – is dedicated to serving high quality Italian food, freshly prepared to order with excellent ingredients. Simple and traditional flavours are found throughout the Gattopardo menu, based on authentic local cookery but presented in the sophisticated and attractive style diners expect from the very best restaurants.Continued

Gattopardo reviews from OpenTable diners
- Gattopardo no longer exists.ImaginaryDined on 29/11/2012Gattopardo no longer exists. The retaurant had changed hands a long time before my booking. They do not deal with Top Table and therfore had ne record of my booking!!Special Features:
- Gattopardo has goneToniWDined on 1/9/2012Gattopardo has gone. Toptable is 3 months out of date. The restaurant has changed name,owner and menu . The new place at the same address knew nothing of the booking I made via Toptable 24 hours earlier. They did find me a table, mainly because I recognized the manager who until recently worked at another Italian restaurant . If the new place was on Toptable I would review it favorably.Special Features:
- Gatto Pardo - 100% RecommendedIloveeatingoutDined on 4/8/2012A little pricier than some Italians however fantastic homemade food, I recommend the tiramisu for desert. One negative,the service could be quicker we had to wait a while to order desert and pay.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Very Good.EnzoDined on 14/7/2012Having spent a lot of time in Italy I believe (maybe mistakenly) that i know a thing or two about the food. I have to say that i enjoyed my visit to Gattpardo very much. The food was excellent and good value. I'm not sure it was completely authentic Sicilian food in terms of taste, but the menu certainly is. I think the reason for this is probably because the restaurant don't have immediate access to the same range of produce they would have in their home location. Anyway - the food was still very very good, service was impeccable. Would definitely go there again. Gattopardo puts the other local Italian restaurants to shame.Special Features:
- Hero food Zero atmosphereeve49Dined on 8/6/2012Went for Friday night dinner with a couple of friends. The staff were helpful and friendly and the food excellent and great value! The only downside was zero atmosphere in a dining room absent of personality or interest. I think they're going for low key quality and chick which almost comes off but not quite. That said I will be returning soon and hope for improvement on my first impression. Potentially a great local destination and definitely worth a visit, so do give it a try!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- As ever Gattopardo in Summerseat,WoodyDined on 27/4/2012As ever Gattopardo in Summerseat, Bury had a pleasant atmosphere. The staff were all friendly and polite and most importantly the food was fantasticio! Forza Gattopardo!
- Excellent quality food andOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/4/2012Excellent quality food and lovely atmosphere. Staff very friendly.
- Wonderful food, really variedOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 21/1/2012Wonderful food, really varied and different menu.mservice was attentive and friendly, will be most definitely coming again.

Tipping Info
If you are happy with the services provided by your local guides, a tip - though not compulsory - is appropriate. While it may not be customary to you, it is of great significance to the people who will take care of you during your travels, inspires excellent service, and is an entrenched feature of the tourism industry across many Intrepid Urban Adventures destinations. Please consider this when budgeting for your extra expenses on this tour.
Alright, let's get to know Sydney a little better – what do you say?
Wind your way through the back alleyways, up the steps and back in time to uncover the stories and people who shaped this fledgling colony. Hear all about Sydney's oldest pubs, the first breweries, amazing convict tales, and a rebellion over the most precious drink of all… rum!
As Australia's first neighbourhood, the Rocks was literally cut from the sandstone cliffs that rise above Sydney Harbour. On this Sydney walking tour, we'll carve out a narrative of this neighbourhood's history, starting with the convicts that were forced to settle here and their amazing tales of survival and entrepreneurship.
Along the way on this Sydney Rocks tour we'll make pit stops at some classic local spots, starting off with a wine tasting in the heart of the Rocks and a lesson in wine appreciation and the local wine industry. From there, we'll explore the once seedy back alleyways, which today are very safe and feature many great photo opportunities.
Next on your Sydney tour, we'll be off to participate in the most "Aussie" of traditions – a real backyard BBQ set amongst the sandstone arches and alleyways of the Sydney Rocks. Be sure to bring your appetite because you can choose from steak, chicken, lamb, kebabs, fish, or a prepared meal of roast beef, roast pork, or vegetarian pie. Oh, and an all you can eat salad bar and a couple drinks to wash it all down with. Take your time to eat as your guide shares more stories with you.
After dinner we'll delve deeper into some of the most unique and off-the-beaten-track parts of the Rocks. Not only will you get to work off your meal and hear more intriguing historical stories, we'll also visit an archaeological site like no other in Australia, before hunkering down to enjoy some locally made craft beer.
Before this rather unique Sydney bar tour comes to an end, we'll be hitting up one of Sydney's most historical drinking establishments for a cocktail. Gotta end in style!

Why application security is often overlooked
Most IT and security professionals recognize the importance of the applications we support.

I first met Laura in late 2009 as a Biznik member, before I was hired as the community manager. I asked a question in the Biz Talk forums as a newbie. She gave me straight up awesome business advice. And that's what it's all about.
When did you first know you were passionate about tax prep?
I love solving complex problems with many moving parts. I think my passion about accounting, tax, and business processes all fall from that problem solving mojo. I liked it in grade school when I finished the math test first, and I still like it when I find a solution that puts a smile on a client's face.
Almost all entrepreneurs agree that making mistakes can be the best way to learn about yourself as a businessperson? What's the most important mistake that you have made?
That CPA's don't need to market or advertise or market their services. One of things that I like the most about Biznik is the incredible amount of knowledge base stored in the Articles. I don't always agree with the writers but I learn a lot and get new ideas on how to present my business to the outside world. I'm personally very shy and quiet. One of the things that I've learned is to be a bolder and louder version of myself in my marketing/advertising. I think that is the biggest influence that Biznik has had on my business.
How has being in business for yourself changed how you view the world?
Trust, but verify. Ronald Reagan used this phrase a lot, especially in dealing with other nations during trade negotiations. I think it strikes to the heart of what constitutes good business sense. Trust others, but make sure they follow up with their end of the bargain.
What is a recent compromise you have had to make for the benefit your business?
The amount of time that I devote to running the business.
Is there a Biznik member that you would like to get to know better or work with?
Kathleen Fasanella – A Pattern Maker in New Mexico. She commented on one of my BizTalk posts and has an incredible depth of knowledge in the fashion industry. I would encourage anyone with aspirations in that field to read her books and blog.
What development would you like to be known for in accounting?
A return to the old fashioned type of CPA firm where people come in have a cup of coffee and discuss their issues/tax problems. There is a great emphasis placed in my industry of trying to be more efficient/profitable that I sometimes think the customer service side is neglected a bit. If we strive to become automated tax preparation firms how are we different than a tax preparation program? This January Infospace purchased Tax Act for $287M.
A quote from the CEO of Infospace. "We know what it means to acquire customers online, and develop products for online environments. And all of those disciplines are front and center with TaxACT, since it is an online business through and through. "
I disagree with that statement. Tax preparation is more than that. It's about having a great understanding of the client's needs, applicable tax law, and project management.
Do you have a consistent challenge that you work to overcome?
Finding time in the day to do everything that needs to be done. I now put my personal time in my schedule and make it just as much a priority as my customer's projects.
What advice do you have for an accountant, or for someone just starting out?
In any technical field the educational portion of your training is just the beginning. It sometimes takes years to become proficient or to have a wide range knowledge base. Take the time to find a mentor who will help guide your steps to your goals.

This is the most beautiful red polish I had ever owned. The polish is highly pigmented but what draws me in the most is the shine and sparkles. It is so beautiful under sunlight and I receive many compliments EVERY single time I have it on. It reminds me Christmas because it is so bright and shiny like baubles on christmas trees. Very pretty and a fool-proof colour! Definitely repurchasing once this runs out.

This product is so beautiful! I had heard a lot of people that liked this product and really wanted to try it. My boyfriend found it on Ebay and bought it for me.
The colour in the packaging is EXACTLY what it looks like on my nails! It is so beautiful!! :) One coat of it was great, but two coats was just gorgeous!!! :)
I am in love with this color! bought this and lemon fizz at the same time. boyfriend insisted that i put on lemon fizz bc it was different. took it off after only a day bc i couldnt wait to put ruby pumps on. love the way it sparkles. makes me want to find a pair of ruby heels to wear. was great after 2 coats but put on a third just to see if it would sparkle even more. will defly buy again when i run out.

Beautiful colour! Keep staring at my nails when wearing this! Easy to apply, and longlasting!

Gorgeous color. I love the glitter. :)
It can be a bit difficult to remove, but what do you expect of a glitter nail polish?
Like a lot of previous reviewers have stated, Ruby Pumps is indeed a very beautiful nail polish. It really does look like Dorothy's sparkly shoes! I am usually not fond of red nail polishes but this one is an exception. It's this rich crimson sparkling red color that's just so elegant.
This color is gorgeous! Gorgeous! Gorgeous! A red based polish with red glitter. For starters, I am not much of a glitter wearing lady, (I prefer cremes), but this polish is one of my top 10 favorite polishes. I always get compliments when I wear this shade. Photos never do this shade any justice, it's so much prettier in person. I'm medium skin tone, so some reds could make me look orange, which I hate. But this red shade doesn't do that.
Since it is a glitter shade, the best way to remove this is by using 100 percent acetone. I hate using 100 percent acetone as it dries the skin. After I remove the polish I immediately apply a cuticle cream and hand cream as well. It's probably why I don't wear glitter shades as often. Since I don't, I don't mind the removal process.
I LOVE China Glaze's formula. Three coats of this gorgeous color over Seche Ridge Filling bast coat and topped off with Seche Vite. All together last about a week before it begins to chip. It never gets thick in the bottle after so many uses. It has nail hardening properties. I love the brush. I will definitely be purchasing this again!
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
This is the red i have been looking for. wow. looks so good on my toes and hands. and the formula lasted a full week without chipping. MUST HAVE! love it
This was my favorite red before i tried out the new big hair... big nails nail polish from the opi texas collection.
Its a deep red with red glitter. It's so glamorous. I feel very sophisticated when I have this color on.
It's very dupable though. Ive seen brands from nyc to orly makes a color just like this.
It's a very nice glittery red polish however it's nothing "omg I need this". Just imagine a red glittery polish and this is it. Nothing too special. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful color, just it's nothing to die for. Plus I hate China Glaze brushes! They're way too small and thin!

Espresso machine - what to buy and where in Mtl?
I saw a post on where to buy espresso machines on the Ontario board, and it reminded me that I am actually shopping for an espresso machine as well. I am just wondering what to buy and where to buy it Montreal? Right now I have a very old Saeco machine that doesnt work too well and makes so-so coffee...and I would really like to have a good espresso machine that will last me a long time. I am ready to splurge on this, but can't afford to pay more than $800 to $1000.
What do you suggest?
Thank you!
I would recommend you check out Faema (at Jean-Talon and St. Laurent). They have a great selection of machines, including Pavoni, and reasonable prices. They will gladly explain the differences in machines, and for 800-1000, you should be able to get something that will make you happy. There is also a Saeco store further up St. Laurent, although their prices are higher, and they mainly stock Saeco machines, whereas Faema has a wider selection.
Whatever you do, be sure to budget for a decent grinder. Remember, the espresso machine is the accessory to the grinder, not the other way around.
Faema is a nice store that also has the occasional refurbished machine of interest. And there's Lino, a block or two south on St-Laurent.
Café Union www.cafe-union.com would be my first recco among local stores. They bundle Rancilio's Silvia (the gold standard among single-boiler, non-heat-exchanger espresso machines) and Rocky grinder with a base for $1,150; maybe you could get them to knock $150 off if you forwent the base.
While the staff at Café Crème, which is either about to move or has just moved to St-Hubert south of Jean-Talon, have always struck me as aloof, the store I and a lot of other espresso lovers will never again set foot in is Espresso Mali, where misinformation, condescension and heavy price-gouging are par for the course.
Don't write off online retailers, by the way. Two in Canada are Toronto's Green Beanery www.greenbeanery.ca and Edmonton's Caffe Tech www.caffetech.com (there are plenty of others, too). And the high prices in Canada and strong Canadian dollar mean you really ought to check out some of the retailers south of the border. Chris' Coffee Service in Albany www.chriscoffee.com provides legendary advice and service and has lots of experience with trans-border shipments. The Daily Grind, 1st Line and Whole Latte Love are also worth investigating.
Our espresso machine is from an online retailer in Vancouver, Espressotec, http://www.espressotec.com. Very quick delivery and good prices and no provincial sales tax. There's another good website for info at http://www.coffeegeek.com where they have consumer reviews of different machines. I didn't find anyone in the city who carried the machine I wanted at the same price, a Gaggia Carezza that was under $400. You can get a Ranchilio Silvia there for under $700.
I've also heard that a quality coffee grinder is essential but we are quite happy to have our coffee ground professionally by the shop (Aux Deux Maries, Le Vieux Europe) when we get our coffee as we use it up quickly anyway.
I would go and get information at the Quincaillerie Dante on Dante in Small Italy because they probably are the best to inform you on what you are looking for, then, of course, use that information and go shopping. What will probably happen is that you will be back in on Dante's very quickly finding that the sevice is best there and that you could shop for days only to end up saving 10$.
Please help us keep this board focused on local chow, and focus on where to get an espresso machine locally.
We've moved the off topic digressions about espresso machines in general to the Cookware board; please continue any further discussion on that board. Thanks.
Well I can tell you that if you want a real espresso machine and don, t want to pay a lot for it then go buy a Bellman espresso machine that you put on your stove top. This machine is superb, you can 3-6 or 9 cups of coffee and have the steam with it to do the creama. It" s all stainless steel and worth about $109. in the stores. If the store you go to doesn< t have it, may be they can get it from the distributor called Terra coffee and tea co. in Montreal. Wowwwww it is incredible.
re: robert trudeau
That Bellman is essentially a glorified moka pot. It may make a good strong cup of coffee but it's not espresso. In a Bellman, the coffee is brewed with boiling hot water and steam, not sub-boiling (90-92C) water as in an espresso machine. Estimates I've seen place the pressure at around 2 bar, not the 9 bar required for espresso. And it relies on steam pressure, not a pump, to push the water through the grounds.
I've got nothing against moka machines, by the way. I still use mine occasionally to make milk-based drinks. But "real espresso machines" they're not.
I have been very happy with my Saeco machines. I have two - one in the city, one in the country, and I've bought two others as gifts. They work very well, produce excellent coffee.
Saeco now owns Gaggia and Spidem, as well. Their selection is huge. I'd recommend that you go to the Saeco store on St-Laurent Blvd., check out the selection, pick the servers' brains, try out the machines, and buy it at a store that offers discounts, since Saeco sells their wares at full retail price.
That being said, my last purchase WAS made at Saeco in Toronto - I bought a demo model at a discount - the Spidem Divina (about $900), a gift for my daughter. It works very well, and is a little more sylish-looking and smaller than some of the other models.
The machines I've purchased are all fully automatic - fill the machine with beans and water, and press a button.
re: occasionalvisitor
Any store that sells Saeco would have, or be able to get, Gaggia machines, since Saeco now owns Gaggia.
As I suggested above, if you go to the Saeco store on St. Laurent Blvd., they have all of the models on display, so you can choose what you want and then shop around for the best price.
corner st laurent and jean talon
corner north west right there,cannot remember the name
best place to buy
I find that the nicest place for espresso machines is Le Cafe Creme on St-Hubert St, near Jean-Talon. They are the exclusive distributors of Mokita Machines (reviewed by Coffeegeak) and many other makes. They offer excellent service and a free coffee!
They are now on the Internet at : http://lecafecreme.ca
re: Cybelius
I bought a Gaggia at Cafe Union a few years ago and was very satisfied. I even got one for my parents for their anniversary. the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly and you can probably pay less than what shows on the tag..
I'm looking for a low end espresso machine, one with a pump. Futureshop carries a Hamilton Beach model that gets good reviews on coffeegeek.com for a starter machine. I was in the Bay and noticed a Beaumark at $110 (40% off) but have trolled the net with absolutely no luck on getting info on this machine, not even company info which is weird. Either it's a really new model or nobody's ever bought one. Any help? Other brands/models?
re: everyonelovessushi
You can give Tino a quick call at Chez Vito. He sells quite a few machines actually and might be able to help you out with a quality machine for a good price (maybe not as low as what you've found, but better quality for sure). 514-277-1981.
re: everyonelovessushi
I have been using (until recently) the Hamilton Beach model you are talking about. I bought it about 5-6 years a go. It is not a great machine. In fact, its not even good. It is an OK machine for a beginner. The only think I like about it that the frothing wand is powerful. The pump is now powerful and you end up with very little to no crema, even if you fresh frind the beans right before using the machine.
I recently got a Breville Cafe Roma and I am in love with this machine. Compared to the Hamilton Beach model, the Breville is a godsend.
A great machine is the Saeco Aroma (which if you are willing to spend the 400$ or so on, will produce excellent espresso)
re: foodie_mtl
I just bought a NESPRESSO Delonghi LATTISSIMA EN680. Now these machines only use the nespresso pods. But I find it a great machine for home use. The Nespresso boutique and coffee shop is at Cresent just north of de Maisoneuve.
re: foodie_mtl
Does the good frother translate into good cappuccinos and lattes? Because I think that's what I'll be using it the most for. Still important to have decent espresso come out though.
re: everyonelovessushi
It does a great cappuccinos, breakfast for me most days!!!
re: everyonelovessushi
Beaumark is one of The Bay's house brands - probably made by someone for them, and probably not even worth $110. Other than the suggestions on this thread, another place you could check is Faema at the corner of St Laurent and Jean Talon. They have a whole range of machines (not only Faema, but other manufacturers - I think they have Gaggia, and I know they carry La Pavoni), some quite affordable, very good qpr.
re: cherylmtl
I bought a Gaggia at Cafe Mali (7655 St-Laurent Boulevard) some time ago. Good machine - the price is purely determined by how fancy the case is - the "guts" are pretty much the same in all of them. Anything less than $400 is probably a waste of money and anything sold by The Bay will be disappointing. $400 sounds a lot, but if you add up how much you'd have spend in a coffee shop over a year you'll see that it is not a bad price at all. Make sure to get a good burr grinder and buy decent coffee - otherwise it really is a waste of time.
re: everyonelovessushi
How much are you willing to pay? We've got the Honda Civic of espresso machines, a Saeco Aroma (the Inox one but the black one is cheaper), which actually we ordered online from a Canadian website. About 400$ or less? Not fancy but fairly reliable, esp. if you're a barrista newbie like we are.
re: everyonelovessushi
It s called the BM-801 .15 bar pump , stainless type looking finish , Made in China .
.I have one . I paid way less than 110 bucks ...I paid 15 bucks and they thanked me for taking it.
hmmmm...I said to myself...but...15 (fifteen) bucks is fifteen bucks..
I thought I would make coffee with it..but when I opened the box at home , parts were missing, parts like the baskets for the portafilter.Sigh.
So for 15 bucks I had a milk steamer taking up a lot of counter space.
WELLLLL......looking for a basket I made a huge mistake.I went to an Italian espresso machine shop with my potafilter and said ,out loud , that i owned a "beau mark" espresso machine and I needed parts for my portafilter
After a long laugh from the short Italian behind the till , he sneered at me
"We don't have parts for Bay Machines"
Which floored me ..as nowhere on the portafilter was the name of the machine ..this guy REALLY knew what cheap batturd I am and he knew his espresso parts. ..amazing ...
He told me the machine was actually a low ball saeco machine (Shrug)
Well to make a short novel into a long story ...I found a 2cup basket ( don't ask) and...
I have finally managed to get that annoying new machine plastic smell to go away , so...I'm very pleased to report ..as far as 15 bar 15 buck pump machines go ..this beast was worth every dollar .Rich frothy espresso..every time...it s amazing and it s discontinued .
My G/F only tried a shot after i got the new machine smell to go away with a few initial brews .She now has stopped sniffing all the espresso for that plastic machine smell..and is addicted to the beau and his beau mark :0 ( I uhh...I uhhh...scratched the name off and tell people it s a Saeco shhhhh)
We've got a breville ... $150 I think, it's been making coffee twice a day for almost 2 years now, very happy with it considering the price:
Was at Dollar Cinema in Decarie Square today with the family. I noticed a big discount kitchen place on the same floor. They had 4 or 5 Saeco machines all running at about $150. Deep discount. I didn't have enough time to ask the staff if they were new or refurbished. I was suspicious but not sure. I was only in there for 5 minutes (kids etc.). Anyone know this store and whether it's reputable? I wish I could supply the name, but I think anyone who knows the store doesn't need the name. Thanks.
re: everyonelovessushi
I 've had my stainless steel Starbucks Barista espresso machine for 10 years now. I use it every day to make my latte and it still works perfectly - I have never had a break or had it repaired. Highly recommend. It makes a wonderful cup of espresso and I have no problems frothing milk either. I think Starbucks now sells it under the name Saeco Aroma, as it is no longer called Barista.

text: Trump Heads to New Hampshire Print article Send a Tip by Breitbart News 19 Dec 2013 post a comment Donald Trump is now scheduled to visit New Hampshire in late January, provoking speculation that Trump may in fact plan a run for president. According to Neil Levesque, executive director of the New Hampshire Institute of Politics, Trump will speak at the institute and then at the famed Politics & Eggs breakfast. Levesque stated that this is the precursor to a presidential exploration: "Everyone who has run for president has spoken here. It's pretty much the first thing you do when you enter the Granite State." He said that he was very excited about having Trump. In October, Trump retweeted a follower writing, "please help get this country back from all these idiots and corrupt government #2016 Will be working on it." He also retweeted a stream of such tweets: "@MyLifeIsLibby: @realDonaldTrump you seem like the only one who can fix this mess! Run for office!" — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 1, 2013 "@kennyj7d7 @realDonaldTrump Run for office, you are the only one that can fix this big mess." Perhaps true! — Donald J.

DEFINITION of 'Julian C. Day'
The CEO and chairman of technology retailer Radio Shack since July 2006 and a former CEO and president of mass merchandiser Kmart Corp. After joining Kmart as its COO and president in 2002, he rose to CEO in January 2003. Day helped Kmart strengthen its balance sheet, improve profitability and liquidity, reduce debt, secure exit financing and decrease operating costs. One of his strategies was to decentralize decision making so store managers had more control over their inventory purchases. He stepped down as Kmart's CEO in October 2004.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Julian C. Day'
Day was born in England in 1952 and educated at Oxford and the London Business School.

Million Dollar Weight-Loss Advice
Big-budget movie studios have celebrity trainer Ramona Braganza on speed dial. Why? Because she's the pro at getting A-listers in amazing shape for filming. But right now, she's focused on you. Here are her best celebrity weight loss tips.
By Betsy Stephens
Use your brain to change your body.
"The mind is a powerful weight-loss tool. Science backs this idea: One study found that thinking about the muscles you're using as you work them allows you to use more muscle fibers and build more strength. Sometimes people rely on distractions, like TV, to get through a workout. But if you want to cut your workout time in half and slim down faster, focus on your body, not the tube."

Effective content has never been more important for successful brand marketing. The proliferation of social media channels and mobile technology, coupled with the hyperconnected-consumer's demand for instant, personal, and relevant content, have changed the way marketers engage with consumers.
While a handful of brands have cracked the code and consistently deliver high-performing content, a majority of brands still fall short on their content efforts, failing to meet consumer expectations and business objectives. The difference between those brands that succeed and those that fall short is their content model. Successful brands implement an insights-driven, consumer-centric approach, allowing them to think and act more like a publisher and less like a traditional advertiser....

However, if you're familiar with Photoshop, Manga Studio will offer few surprises. As a digital drawing program it's a pretty stunning addition to anyone's toolset.

It hardly makes you want to back their representative, Don't Push It (22/1 bet365) but the ten-year-old has plenty going for him." (credit: Paolo Camera) Share: 0 0 0 Get Grand National Alerts Related Articles See all Grand National Tips news A look at four of the top British trainers with fancied runners in this year's Grand National... bet365 are offering a £200 free bet on the Grand National when you open an account using bonus code MAXIMUMBONUS Paul NichollsThe champion trainer has never won the National and of his 44 runners over the past 18 years, only two have made the frame - Royal Auclair, runner-up in 2005, and My Will, who finished third last year. The latter, a 40/1 chance with Stan James, is back for another crack this year and has to come into the reckoning off a 2lb lower mark, although he won't have the assistance of Ruby Walsh this year and his best chance may have gone. Instead, Walsh has elected to ride Big Fella Thanks (best price 10/1 bet365 as of Friday evening), who performed with great credit last year when finishing sixth as a novice and, with 10st 12lb to carry, looks nicely treated this time. But will he take to the National fences for a second time? Not all horses do and Walsh has admitted it was a tough call choosing Big Fella Thanks over a host of others he could have ridden. Nicholls' third runner, Tricky Trickster (18/1 bet365), has stamina in abundance as he showed when winning the 4m National Hunt Chase at Cheltenham last season, but has to put a poor run in the Gold Cup behind him. Even if we forgive him that run, he might not yet be battle-hardened enough for the National and it's 70 years since the last winning seven-year-old (Bogskar 1940). Verdict: Nicholls is long overdue a National but will have to wait another year. David PipePipe, successful with Comply Or Die in 2008, could have many as five runners this time with Comply Or Die (22/1 Sportingbet) back for a third crack having finished runner-up to Mon Mome last year. He's finished unplaced in his two races since but ran well for a long way at Cheltenham last time and you just know he'll come alive at Aintree when fitted with the blinkers that have been on for the last to years. Timmy Murphy, his partner in the last two Nationals, has a difficult decision to make as he also has the option of riding The Package (12/1 bet365), who ran an excellent Festival second last time (would have won in another couple of strides) and is officially 6lb well-in here. Whether he will stay the marathon trip remains to be seen but the way he races and jumps makes you think he will. Pipe is also set to be represented by Madison Du Berlais (66/1 bet365), who fell at the Canal Turn in 2008 but is generally a safe jumper; Piraya (150/1 Ladbrokes), who came good at Warwick two outings ago but cannot be seriously fancied on his overall form; and Pablo Du Charmil (200/1 Blue Square), who has looked best over trips short of 3m. Verdict: Comply Or Die is proven around here and another top-four slot looks a distinct possibility. Nigel Twiston-DaviesThe Gold Cup-winning trainer has twice tasted success at Aintree with Earth Summit (1982) and Bindaree (2002) and his runners can never be discounted, although it takes a slight stretch of the imagination to see either Beat The Boys, Irish Raptor, Ballyfitz or Ollie Magern winning. Surely, his best chance lies with last year's Scottish National winner Hello Bud (40/1 bet365), who has been running well over trips too short or on ground too deep for him and has dropped a few pounds as a result (set to carry 10st 6lb). If we get a dry week - the forecast is encouraging in that respect - it's not hard to imagine him going well as he jumps impeccably and the course will suit his front-running style. Verdict: Hello Bud could nick a place at decent odds. Jonjo O'NeillO'Neill had an awful record in the race as a jockey and has yet to win it as a trainer, while stable jockey Tony McCoy's tale of woe in the race has been well documented. It hardly makes you want to back their representative, Don't Push It (22/1 bet365) but the ten-year-old has plenty going for him. A winner of a a valuable handicap chase on Grand National day last year, he showed he had the necessary stamina for this when running Galant Nuit (getting 25lb) to a half a length over 3m3f110 yards at Cheltenham in November. The further they went that day, the stronger he looked and, providing he can negotiate the first few fences, he will be staying on better than most. O'Neill's other representative, Can't By Time (40/1 Coral), is much harder to fancy as he has looked best over much shorter (won over 2m 4f this season) and fell in this race last year. Verdict: Don't Push It (22/1 bet365) will get the strong handling he needs and has a big chance.

The curve-hugging, pencil-styled dress is designed in the classic nautical colours blue, white and red. Decorated with red ribbon, blue and white collar and white buttons the dress does its job of looking naughty and navy.
