POOL SIDE WAS PRETTY. PUBLIC AREAS WERE CLEAN AND WELL KEPT. HOTEL EMPLOYEE GREETED US WITH A COMP RUM PUNCH VERY FRIENDLY WITH LOTS OF GREAT INFORMATION. I reserved a King bedroom, but received dble rm with a moldy smell. An hour LATER i was shown another double room sprayed w air freshner and opened windows.NO KING BED which I didn't understand because the hotel was5% full.VERY DISAPPOINTED IN SRVICE
Close to beach, clean, nice grounds, free breakfast Somewhat pricey
Location, staff, value because it included free WiFi and breakfast. A boutique hotel with super comfortable bedding and wonderful, professional staff. Shuttle was very convenient and accommodating. No I would definitely stay at Ports of Call again :)
Nothing.. The Manger was rude!! The hotel had ants crawling everywhere from the bedroom, to the bathrooms, and even the common areas where they service breakfast. My 3-year-old was bitten several times. The Manger was rude!!!
The staff was very attentive and welcoming. The layout of the resort was great. You didn't have to walk forever to get to the beach or to the restaurants and neighboring resorts were close by enough that you could walk to their restaurants. No extended checkout and no heads up on the state of T and C airport which was a mess.
The room has everything for you. Small kitchen , patio and even washer and dryer.
Water Sports Equipment included in the cost of the room. Our room had a sitting area, kitchenette which were excellent bonuses. Pool steps from our door. Plenty of shade to ovoid long periods in direct sunlight. If I mentioned anything, it would only be picky. Nothing to not like.
My brother got married on a nearby all inclusive megaplex. That's a) not our style and b) not our budget. The Sands is very comfortable, very friendly, very professional, and down right lovely. My brother said his resort was too much like Disneyland. A 5 minute bike ride to nearby shopping area, we got simple groceries each day, and patronized local businesses. Make sure your trip includes a Thursday pm so you can go to the Fish Fry and hang with the locals. Highly highly highly recommend the conch chowder and pork stew (2 different things) at nearby grocery. Bikes were great! Rode all over the place. The resort was fantastic. We loved picking staff for local places to go. TCI, in general, food is expensive (alas we still saved baucoup $$ on this resort). Saw some nasty American tourists. Don't be like them. You're on vacay. Relax for God's sakes.
We received a free upgrade to a one bedroom right next to the pool. Hemingways restaurant was also great. Delicious fish and chips. The beach was awesome and never too crowded. We could always find a hut and chairs.
Quiet w/variety of age groups. Beautiful beach. Great water. Conch dive was fun. Nor as expensive as I thought it was gonna be. Are out for dinner in at other meals. Snorkel is far better at Cozumel. At least where they took us. Beach and pool service not great if you are wanting to drink a lot. Plenty if chairs. Umbrellas. Chk your bill one girl at the restaraunt tried to dbl. chrg us. I had a feeling as there was a mess up and they fixed it without probl. The guys were better and more friendly than the women.
Location, location, location.... it is situated on a relatively quiet section of gorgeous Grace Bay Beach. Since there is not a developed property on either side of the resort it doesn't feel crowded and it feels isolated in a good way. The palapas and beach staff are wonderful. The hobie cats and water boards are included and easily accessible. Our studio had a small kitchenette, which was nice. The room was clean, spacious and well appointed. Our second floor room had a view of the ocean, which was beautiful. The staff at the hotel were all very friendly and very helpful. Hemingways restaurant was very convenient as it was right on the edge of the beach. You could sit in the sun on the deck or under a covered area. The food was always delicious so we had breakfast daily and even ordered lunch on the beach. There were two weddings over the weekend but the guests never took over the resort. The pool closest to the beach was lovely and a nice spot to sit at the end of the day. Overall, we thought it was terrific and had a lovely visit. We would definitely recommend it to friends and would come again with our children on another visit. Great spot for a couple to get away.
We stayed here prior to our wedding in T&C and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Upon knowing that we were getting married they sent a bottle of champagne to our room and did everything they could to make sure that we enjoyed ourselves.
The beach There were a lot of cockaroches in the hotel room ! And you can hear people from the room next to you very clearly
We loved everything..very friendly staff, beautiful; lopcation, nice room
Staff was amazing, accomodations were beautiful, the beach was gorgeous. Location is central to restaraunts and shops. I highly recommend Seven Stars.
Beautiful facilities, grounds and accommodations. Lovely service and delicious food. Was the best stay ever!
Wesley (who works at the restaurant and is the sailing instructor) and Tina (the security guard ) and others really went out of their way to make sure anything I needed was provided and that my stay there was excellent. The staff is amazing!
Beautiful pool area, beautiful beach and water. Close to town for biking. Too many people valentines weekend and too many children. We had to leave on Wednesday and noticed all the familys and children left too and we might have enjoyed more adult time and not as many umbrellas on the beach after Wednesday if we had been able to stay the whole week.
Food was excellent- never had a bad meal. Great beach with good lounge chair available. Staff was excellent Provides dinner on the beach if you prefer They make great exotic drinks Room cleaned every day early or later if requested Studio room was smaller than expected for the money Needed more entertainment for the evenings on property Taxi service was expensive- charged by the person
The Mango reef that is on the resort had great food. The stay was awesome for our anniversary and honeymoon.
I had a great time at the Windsong and already plan on returning. As a woman traveling by herself, I always felt safe and comfortable, which was my first priority. I stayed in a standard room, which I believe is their smallest floor plan, but it was plenty of space for me and a great value for the money. I made some friends and saw the two-bedroom suite they were staying in, and it was gorgeous--I would definitely consider coming back with friends and getting one of those. The hotel is a quick ride from the airport and is right on a gorgeous stretch of beach. I never had a problem getting a beach chair of a spot by the pool, no matter what time of day I came down from my room. It's within easy walking distance on the beach of several other hotels, if you want restaurant variety, plus the popular Thursday night fish fry. It's a smaller resort, which was exactly what I wanted; the other guests were mostly adults, but there were a couple families with small kids. If you're looking to avoid the swarm of kids that sometimes comes with a beach vacation, this is a good, affordable, really nice spot to do it in. I don't really have anything bad to say. The food at the restaurant wasn't great, but it wasn't bad. I wish the standard rooms had bathtubs instead of only stand-up showers, but the shower was so big that it wasn't as much of bummer as I thought it might be when I booked. Overall, a great place go stay and strong value for the money.
We really loved the Regent Grand. The staff was really friendly, the ground are extremely well taken care of. The pool was gorgeous and kept at a pleasant 85F. Perfect proximity to the beach, even more perfect location in town. Lots of shops and restaurants to walk to. Most of the other hotels aren't in that little downtown stretch and are off on their lonesome in a less developed part of town. We would stay here again in a heartbeat and would reccomend to everyone we know. The pool bar bites are pricey, all the food on the island is pricey. Recommend a quick trip to the grocery store to grab some snacks to store in your room.
The staff was extremely friendly and professional. They were very attentive and could answer any of our questions as first-time visitors. We would definitely go back to the Regent Grand. The on-site restaurant had a limited breakfast menu, but the wait staff was friendly.
Good: Beaches are immaculate, pristine and lovely. Rooms are fabulous and quite New York ish... Bad: Rooms are New York ish.. let me clarify that.. as a new yorker i felt like i travelled down there and found myself in a tropical version of a New York Lounge. This may not be a bad thing to some, but the constant thumping disco beat [from about 9am till midnight] really wore my wife and i down. The internet is sparse. The restaurant on premises is good but totally overpriced for what you get. The service is really not up to par yet with other equal places. But overall.. I would go back having heard that these issues were both worked out.
It was our last night. Halloween - October 31, 2009. The moon was nearly full. My girlfriend Missy's birthday was the next day November 1st, but that was our day of departure, so we were celebrating it the night before. We arrived at the hotel's Bagatelle Restaurant at 7pm and to Missy's surprise we were escorted to the beach. With torches lining our path we were led to a table on the beach with one of those half moon love seats off to the side. With our feet playing in the warm sand, champagne toasts throughout and J setting the stage as our waiter extraordinaire the evening played out perfectly. The Bagatelle salad which Missy said was the best salad she ever had and a lobster tail with the essence of spectacular spices to match, the dinner was as good as good can be. The restaurant staff of 8 came out signing happy birthday and presented Missy with a classic birthday cake. They left, and we asked J our waiter to pull up a chair and have some cake with us. So there we were, Me, Miss and J from Haiti sitting on the beach laughing and enjoying the ultimate setting. And that's what the Gansevoort is about. It's about the people. Sure the beds are great and the food is excellent, and the fitness room is clean and... whatever. It's about M L the yoga instructer who became friends with Missy instantly. It's about A at F&B and Rooster, J and the waitstaff who will do anything for you. It's about K M the Standards Manager and T Q from Operations who always smile at you. It's about M O'B, and B, and S at the beach, so for us it's about the people at the Gansevoort
The hotel is beautiful and breath-taking upon arrival. The restaurant Bagetella is fabulous over looking the pool. My room had an excellent view of the ocean and with the doors and windows open, the ocean breezes was soothing. I highly recommend the resort, its new fresh and trendy.
First visit to Turks and Caicos; the Gansevoort made us feel so at home. Everyone was so friendly and always there to help. Beach service was great; no problem getting a drink or food on the beach; however the service fee did get rather pricey after awhile. The pool was spectacular. Having Coral Gardens reef just a few minutes down the beach was a special treat; resort provided snorkeling gear so off we could go to snorkel the beatiful reef! Studio room was nice however our shower did have a leak which caused a puddle in middle of floor. Lots of towels and toiletries. And tons of beach towels so never have to be without one! Staff knew us by name and everyday would stop to chat with us. Very peaceful resort; very few kids which made it nice. It would be nice if it was an adult only resort but with Beaches right down the beach; most families take their kids there anyways. Lots of honeymooners here; and everyone seemed to be very friendly with each other. Only drawback is the food/drink is pricey all over the island and cabs are $$$$. The resort's restaurant has the very best key lime pie! Computer set up at front desk area; very quick internet connections so we were able to stay in contact with those back home. Did not use WiFi; why bring laptop when we are on vacation! A great way to celebrate our wedding anniversary; would come back here for sure. Love the islands and the people! Hotel met our expectations; staff was superb. The one thing I did not like was the feather pillows; I was sinking in them every night!
First, I should start with the positives. This is an absolutely beautiful hotel, it is right on the beach and it is in a more secluded area (when we walked down the beach near the Sandals and other mass resorts, we were even more appreciative of the secluded location. The surroundings are absolutely amazing and the outdoor areas take full advantage of the great Turks water. The beach staff bends over backwards to make you happy. This is built as a 5 star resort, but I have to say that I have had better service and less problems at Marriotts or Hyatts. There are far too many issues that are huge drawbacks to the beautiful locale, as follows: 1. The free WiFi that they advertise throught the hotel does not work. It is painfully slow, when you can get it to connect (good luck finding the one little spot in your room, or in the lobby, where the signal is strong enough) , so don't expect to be able to check e-mail or use Skype while there unless you plug in the phone cord into your laptop (fortunately, it is a CAT5 cable that allows this, but then you can't use the phone in your room - but see below as to why that may not be an issue). 2. Their phone system doesn't work, which is a massive problem. We were getting constant calls for the room next to ours, which at first I attributed to people not dialing correctly. After the first day, when the hotel was calling to confirm dinner reservations and other things for the room next door and they expressed frustration that they could not get through to the room. I complained about this several times and on the third complaint (after 5 calls, including 2 from the front desk), I was told that ''It really isn't our problem, the phone company that installed the phone system didn't do it right.'' This really isn't the attitude I want to hear and it certainly isn't my job to contact their phone installer. We were resigned to disconnecting the phone during our stay, which was inconvenient, as our cell phones did not work there and my sister also staying the hotel could not reach us. 3. Our safe stopped working the third day we were there. It couldn't be replaced. 4. Our Ipod Docking station didn't work and had to be replaced. The DVD player was not hooked up (really, I don't think we should have to do installation). 5. Although the rooms are beautiful, our room, which was the junior oceanfront suite with the jacuzzi tub, lacked privacy in the bathroom. The shower and the toilet had glass doors which were smoked enough to where you could still see someone in there. Also, the room is all tile and there is no real sound barrier between the bathroom and the rest of the suite - so you can hear everything. 6. Service is lacking here. Toiletries were not replaced unless you specifically asked (and then, only what you specifically asked for), one of our robes was taken by housekeeping and it took 3 calls to get it back and inexplicably, they took our bath mat (which also took 3 calls to get back). Towels were always placed in different areas, which was odd and housekeeping never seemed to come at consistent times. Also, be aware that the floors are marble and due to the humidity, they take a while to dry after being mopped. We both slipped a few times on the floor and were lucky not to fall. 7. For some reason, the bar by the beach charged twice as much for drinks as the bar in the restaurant. Service by the beach was much better than anywhere in the hotel. The bartender and beach attendants were the hardest working people there, but the rest of the staff didn't seem to be so concerned with making your stay comfortable. The girls at the front desk were absent minded at times, and had an attitude at others. Also, keep in mind that service in the restaurant was somewhat attentive until you get your meal, and then completely absent (this seemed to be prevalent throughout the island, so may just be cultural, but good luck getting a drink refill). 8. Room service wasn't that bad, but it wasn't great either. My medium cheeseburger was blood rare (we were so exhausted with calling about problems that I abandoned the thought) and while sitting in my sister's room, we discovered she had a different room service than we did. She asked for an updated menu from room service and was given one that was different from ours, and from the one she was given. When her room was changed because she was given the wrong room (another issue), we found that there was a fourth version of the room service menu. It was just comical. Also, with regard to the restaurant, seasoning in the food was somewhat lacking and don't order anything with rice, as it was consistently hard as a rock. Breakfast is grossly overpriced here. Again, this is a beautiful resort, but all the problems were enough to make me seriously consider whether I would return.
We stayed here for honeymoon 8/16 - 8/22 in luxury beachfront room w/terrace. The included airport shuttle was ready for us when we walked out of airport. Upon check in at the beautiful outdoor lobby they scheduled our departure shuttle. We were given a tour of the beautiful grounds and escorted to our room. Awaiting us was complimentary chocolate covered strawberries, Moet champagne and congratulatory card. We didn't see that coming, but were excited to be thought of. The room, and especially the view of the ocean, took our breath away. It was better than the pictures on Gansevoort's own website. Splurging on beachfront is definitely worth it! We enjoyed the view of the ocean from everywhere in the room including the oversized rain shower. Our favorite thing to do each day was hit the button for the auto shade and lie in bed looking at nothing but water and sky. The large and spacious balcony is another great place to take in the view. We lounged and ate there. The daily free breakfast was adequate w/fresh fruit, cold cereals, a variety of milks, breads, teas and juices. You could also order from the menu. Be prepared to spend a bundle on food and the taxis to get to it. Great place + Great staff = Great Vacation
Excellent hotel, very clean and peaceful. It had everything we were looking for No
The exterior and interior lines of this beachfront mid-size resort are clean and minimalistic, but at the same time warm and inviting. At the property?s core is a ?zero entry? rectilinear infinity pool, featuring teak-decked islands that serve as lounging platforms by day, and dining areas by night. As for the dining: the on-site restaurant is wonderful. Both the food and service are top-notch and worth the splurge. We stayed in an ocean-front ground-level room, which featured a Jacuzzi tub, a separate extra large shower stall (with a rainfall shower head), a kitchenette, flat screen TV, and a huge sliding glass window that opens wide to let the outside in. DC)cor is sleek and minimalistic, with lots of limestone and dark finished wood. There is plenty of drawer and closet space (in case you decide to move it). The bed is very comfortable, as was the chez longue. Other rooms featured patios or balconies. Without exception, the staff members we encountered were friendly and eager to please. Our sense was that there attitude was genuine and they weren?t just putting on a show. The employees were helpful - but they did not ?hover? - and a sense of privacy abound. Our fellow guests were primarily American and French, and the bulk appeared to range in age from upper 20s to upper 50s, with thirty-somethings composing the means. Though the resort does not overtly hold itself out as ?family friendly?, there were a few very-well-behaved children among the guests who, to the credit of their attentive parents, didn?t detract a bit from the chill atmosphere.
It was our last night. Halloween - October 31, 2009. The moon was nearly full. My girlfriend Missy's birthday was the next day November 1st, but that was our day of departure, so we were celebrating it the night before. We arrived at the hotel's Bagatelle Restaurant at 7pm and to Missy's surprise we were escorted to the beach. With torches lining our path we were led to a table on the beach with one of those half moon love seats off to the side.

It's about A at F&B and Rooster, J and the waitstaff who will do anything for you. It's about K M the Standards Manager and T Q from Operations who always smile at you. It's about M O'B from sales and B and S at the beach, so for us it's about the people at the Gansevoort!
The service and staff was amazing. The rooms are very modern and clean and the staff does a great job keeping the rooms clean. No
Reasonably priced. Very clean. Great staff. We loved the swim up bar and atmosphere outside. The room we stayed in was absolutely incredible. There was all new amenities with washer and dryer, oven, dish washer, flat screen tvs, wifi, stocked kitchen. Very little beachfront. Food took a while at Fire and Ice.
Wonderful property, with free access to sister hotels Alexandria and Beach House. Huge rooms and great views, food was good. Very nice staff and clean peaceful environment, with tranquil beach. Beach is man made but just as turquoise and nice and the pool overlooks the ocean, while the sister properties had natural beaches that were spectacular but the pool was separate. It was great to have both options. AMAZING grocery market on site with everything you could possibly need, very accommodating to children. The free shuttles to the other hotels were great. Only 1 restaurant was open for dinner in the low season, but other options were available nearby/at sister properties. No room service and mosquitos were pretty bad due to rain the week prior, but take out was available from the restaurant and there were no mosquitos on our 3rd floor balcony. Wish they had an airport shuttle, but Ramona at the front desk was extremely helpful.
the vast number of different things to do for the children such as water slides for the kids, xbox, drop off camp, ice cream/ cotton candy, arts and crafts, ping pong tables etc... the food was better than i expected at an all inclusive. 16 different restaurants to choose from, from beach side to restaurant setting. Unlimited drinks were very nice. i was very pleased with the whole place. I was a bit disappointed with my rooms. When first arrived they said Kayak (where i booked) did not let them know i booked a luxury king walkout and instead put me in a room that was two double beds. I had to show proof and was then put into the correct room the next night. the beds were hard as a rock -that needs to be changed. Pillows were too soft, i found a roach in my room and my room was so humid cus my a/c wasnt working. housekeeping was quick to fix my a/c and sprayed my room with bug spray. because its access to the outside, there were many mosquitos which kept me awake most of the night.
Beautiful location...friendly and helpful staff....great entertainment!

At MissionRS.com we have an entire page devoted to tabletop supplies and all the necessities that go into keeping the front of the house properly stocked and ready to go. dining area supplies to serve your food and beverages.

Fits Like A Glove...In the restaurant industry there's an enormous amount of time spent prepping the food: chopping, julienning, grinding, dicing- you name it- your kitchen staff is spending valuable time in the preparation phase making sure that the ingredients are ready and prepared accordingly. Undoubtedly, the single most important tool to make all of this happen, aside from cutlery, is your hands. Unfortunately, we have all been in a situation where a cooking-related accident ensues- burns, cuts, they are an inevitable part of working in the kitchen at one point in time. Accidents Happen! One way that you and your staff can take precautionary measures to ensure cuts and kitchen-related injuries are kept at bay is by investing in gloves. And not just any gloves, we're talking Cut-Resistant gloves. At MissionRS.com, we have a few different styles in various sizes to ensure an accurate fit and proper application.
Another crucial precaution for all of your restaurant staff to take is staying educated on cross contamination and food safety. Gloves play a role in this practice as well.
Food Code 2005 forbids bare hand contact with ready-to-eat foods. This is where disposable gloves come in handy. Disposable gloves are extremely economical and are ideal for prep work of any kind. However, it is critical to remember proper glove usage to avoid cross contamination and foodborne illness.
(Want to learn more? Read some great literature on proper glove usage here and here.)
We have a selection of disposable polyethylene gloves online that are ideal for safe food handling and which are to be thrown away after using. Made with a component that complies with FDA regulations for food contact, these gloves feature a sheer-gauge 1 mil poly film which provides a sense of touch that is close to the bare hand. They can also be worn on either hand, they're available in various sizes, and they are packed in a case of 100.
Below is an interesting excerpt from Professionalequipment.com
"According to the Ansell Edmont manufacturing website: The average insurance compensation for OSHA recordable hand and finger injuries is approximately $3856.00. The average medical payment is approximately $2600.00. There are approximately 439,000 disabling hand and finger injuries a year, which equates to an annual cumulative cost in the millions." Moral of the story is to take the necessary precautions and invest in gloves for your staff! Make sure to stay educated on proper glove usage as well.

Maintenance Techniques For Your Commercial Refrigeration Equipment
The food service industry relies heavily on dependable commercial refrigeration to chill and store food safely. A refrigerator malfunction or breakdown can cause spoilage and a massive disturbance to your day-to-day routine. This can lead to lost time and ultimately, lost revenue. As an owner of commercial refrigeration equipment, it is necessary to know the basics of maintenance to reduce the risk of costly problems now and in the future.
How to Maintain Commercial Refrigerators
Many problems can be avoided by maintaining regular equipment inspections. The constant use of commercial refrigeration equipment brings with it the potential for errors that can be spotted during a visual inspection. Therefore, it's important to be consistent in your maintenance routines, picking up signs of a problem early and rectifying the issue before it worsens. This diligence and consistency will pay off in the future and save you a significant amount of funds down the line.
Clean Condenser Coils
Since every refrigerator uses compressors and condensers, the coils must be cleaned regularly to achieve the correct operating temperature. A coil brush is the tool that is used to remove hair, dust, dirt or other debris that clog the coils, making it more difficult to maintain accurate temperatures. Condenser coils should be cleaned once each month to help extend the operating life of your commercial refrigerators.
Check for Drain Clogs
The defrost setting for refrigeration systems is what keeps ice from forming inside the doors and on food products. A clogged drainage hose can prevent proper defrosting and cause water leakage. Most commercial refrigeration units have a rear access panel; this allows you to easily get to the drainage hose. This should be checked regularly to keep clogs from causing motor or electrical damage.
Fix Cracked Gaskets
The gaskets used inside of commercial refrigeration units create a tight seal when the door is closed, but they can crack and wear over time. This allows cold air to dissipate, forcing the compressor and condenser units to work harder. Leaking door gaskets are a common cause of failure to hold correct temperature in commercial refrigerators. The gaskets have a retaining clip that should be unscrewed to allow the gasket to be removed. Inspecting the gasket will reveal any cracks or holes. A new gasket should be installed if defects are found.
Commercial refrigerators will have a long, useful life when properly maintained with routine inspections and accurate maintenance techniques.

Grilling up the Greatest
It's that time of year again! Football games are in full swing, and the big game is nearing. Given all this, we can be sure that dive bars and restaurants with TVs will be packed with loyal fans, while personal parties at home will be gearing up as well. One of the best ways to please your customers or guests is to offer some good grub , most often achieved by grilling. Grilling is a labor of love--love for the food, for those about to eat the food, and for the fire itself. While it can be done over nothing more than an open fire pit, grilling is often made easier and more enjoyable with proper grilling tools.For example, in order to to prep the meat you'll need a meat tenderizer, and to maneuver the meat once on the grill, you'll need some tools (from tongs to turners. )
Why a meat tenderizer? Overnight marinating can improve the flavor and texture of both softer and tougher meats. A tenderizer creates tiny holes which allow your lovingly crafted marinade to seep inside the meat, infusing it with flavors. We provide professional tenderizers with the ability to reduce your cooking time and improve the texture of meat varieties. Our larger tenderizer can reduce your cooking time by up to 40 percent, and is equipped with 48 surgical steel blades to create cooking channels in even the thickest piece of meat. We also offer a more compact tenderizer for smaller spaces or smaller portions. Need knives? At Mission Restaurant Supply, we have an extensive display of cutlery by various manufacturers, like Mundial and Forschner, and great sets like this 9 piece all-purpose knife set by Berghoff.
In the Market for a Blender?
Blenders have been used for decades to mix drinks and food products both quickly and efficiently. Their reliability and fast operation has made commercial blenders a must have and a mainstay in the foodservice industry over the years. There are differences in the construction and performance of every blender, which can be major or minor. Understanding these differences and how to purchase a model that is right for you will guarantee errorless blending in your bar. Differences in Commercial Blenders There are three main elements to consider before buying commercial blenders: Construction, Controls, and Blade Types + Motor Strength. Hamilton Beach, Waring and Vitamix are the top manufacturers of bar equipment and supplies online at MissionRS.com. This quick guide will tell you what you should look for. 1. Construction When buying a new blender, the quality of the materials used will more than likely determine how long the machine will last. The more inexpensive models are constructed with a plastic exterior and a simple container. While these blenders are functional, they are not as durable as models that are made from stainless steel. The frequency of use along with what you're blending will determine what type of construction that you need; if you're shopping for a commercial use in a bar, restaurant, or smoothie shop, you need to opt for a more heavy-duty blender, while a smaller service restaurant or bar with less usage could handle a simpler model.2. Digital or Manual Controls The next element to consider when buying a new blender is what kind of control features you'd like to have. You have a choice between push buttons or a digital keypad. Both versions work equally well. Each motor is shielded to reduce operating noise when each button is selected. Digital keypad blenders offer a more convenient way to prepare drinks on a timed circuit compared to manually pressing buttons and checking the mixed contents for proper blending. 3. Blade Types and Motor Strength
Lastly, understanding what kind of blade type and motor strength you need will help you make the right choice for your business. The quality of the blades is what ultimately gives you the finished blended product. The more inexpensive models are built with motors that are a few notches down in the strength department, and therefore may not be able to successfully handle certain tasks, like chopping an entire container full of ice, for example. Some of the more expensive units have stronger motors and more power to efficiently chop ice and solid foods. Which bar blenders you'll need mostly depends on how fast drinks need to be made and what level of quality is acceptable for your restaurant or bar's production.Browse through our selection of commercial food blenders & bar blenders at MissionRS.com! If you have questions on finding the right unit for your business, please call us at 800-319-0690 and one of our sales reps will be happy to help you!

Malware Stealing Digital Certificates Raises Security Concerns
eWeek, By Brian Prince
Two recent examples of malware utilizing digital signatures belonging to legitimate companies have put a spotlight on the question of what to do about it.
Researchers at Trend Micro recently found a variant of the Zeus Trojan that used a certificate belonging to Kaspersky Lab's ZbotKiller product, which ironically is designed to destroy Zeus. Though the certificate was expired, the idea was for the malware to use it to look legitimate.

Ok docs. Bend over and take whatever big govt decides to give you. Will it be a carrot, a stick or something else? Better yet, refuse to play, and go to direct care with your patients,.
Robin Stamm
Instead of waiting until government stepped in to provide health care that wasn't getting to those who need it, too many in the medical community sat back and let the good times roll for those at the top. (WAY too many references to cite here, but a Google search on "medical economics" might do it). For those of us on Medicare who have more than one chronic condition, dealing with providers over the phone might work. I'm willing to give it a try. Are docs (and/or their bosses/insurers) willing to give a solution a try in which they might get less too? C'mon: something's gotta give here..
barbara caldwell
Don't these non-medical be bureaucrats know they will be old someday and then their Medicare or whatever remnants are there, will not be accepted by the specialists they need? Oh, but you can talk to your family practice doc ( ever tried to contact one directly?) or, since you will be dying much earlier you can go to the mental health providers who still will be accepting Medicare since they actually get paid for their time, and you can talk sbout dying? Craziness . Why not work on all the corruption and scams with Medicare? Hospices getting paid big bucks for "admitting" patients to their services when they are already receiving 24 hour skilled care by providers who are already getting paid big bucks? Even when the person's physician in the nursing facility is the very same one who urged families that the patient needed palliative care and only he , as the medical director of that very hospice? And for having a care plan written (again, duplicative or certainly not a task to transfer, a couple nurse visits ( even though nurses are already caring for that patient, and a few "caregiver" visits to provide about 15 minutes of 1 on 1 communication for no longer than a month at a cost to Medicare of over $10,000? And the patient never even left his bed? Oh brother....no wonder the government resorts to Draconian accounting measures rather than monitoring and fining program an users because they simply do not have the knowledge or care enough to administrate the program? But , then again , they are not professional providers? Idiots....
Primary care providers have a crappy quality of life...especially at work. I know few professions where one works at such a breakneck pace all day...on something so important as a human life... But I can't get paid for my time? Kidding right? "Quality" is what is rewarded? Why doesn't that translate to auto mechanics, hair stylists, lawyers, IT personnel?? Who decided that I can't bill for my time? Everyone else CAN and does! Layers by the minute. Handymen charge more that what I get paid an hour!! "Quality" should be encouraged by credentialing and care review. Quality is important EVERYWHERE but it can be difficult to determine when you are dealing with humans. The "outcome" is not always under my control. When the patient refuses to quit smoking, lose weight, exercise, etc. We are all drinking the cool-aid here. And pretty soon the power to say "no" Will be taken away. When there aren't enough accepting Medicare and all the patients are clamoring, you will be FORCED to accept Medicare to be credentialled or work with the government payor at all. You will forced to take low payments. What other profession would accept a TEN YEAR PAY FREEZE!! Why aren't we laughing at even the idea of this? A decade? That translates into annual reductions. Where has the AMA been? AAFP? I'll never tell medical students to go into primary care again. To be overworked, devalued, and sued repeatedly? No thanks!.
helene stout
DODdoc - agreed, but lets try a different suggestion. As US citizens I propose a 10 year freeze on ALL government employees and wages, pension payments, and benefits. So if the cost of benefits rise the employee will have to pay the difference from their frozen wages. CMS conversion over time: 1996:$35.41,2006:$37.90, 2013:$34.02 w/sequestion deduction $33, This of course does not take into account increase in RVU's which have been mandated to remain budget neutral. Just Sayin'.
Ms. Stout: Great idea, but you don't understand. We are now their serfs..
Jeffrey Kittay, DPM
When I began my podiatry practice in 1979, my malpractice insurance was $600 per YEAR. Now, because of my excellent record and only one suit in 34 years, I pay the "discounted" rate of $1,000 per MONTH. Medicare's laughable 1 or 2 percent annual increases over the years did not keep pace with any of my expenses and the 2% sequester cuts have made practice nearly untenable. I don't see any sequestration of Congressional salaries, and here in MA, the Medicaid program abandoned any sense of decency in 1990 when they discontinued paying so-called "crossover" claims for patients who have both Medicare and Medicaid. Every provider in the state who continued to see these patients, myself included, took an effective 20% reduction in income. How many legislators, either state or federal, did the same? If I had decided to run for office instead of providing care to my neediest patients, I wouldn't be looking at having to continue to work until I'm 80..

The winners from the 'Hellos From the Crypt' contest with The Hello Project are here!
Handing the reins over to our guest judge, Stefan Bucher:
Let me sum this up succinctly: Jesus H. Christ! This is a scary-ass post-it! I think it's because this one's got an outie.
I do believe that the hybridization of lobsters and octopi will lead to the downfall of humanity. And just because the pundits say that horizontal blinds will protect us doesn't mean it's true. (Extra credit for the very menacing little "hello.")
Again, there is so much here: The Rorschach, the whiteout eyes and teeth, the excellent detailing on the speech bubble, the fine work on the face, and just the idea that your Jamiroquai hat could turn on you at any moment… I love it!
It's got everything! A scary graveyard, ghoulish type, dramatic lighting, and a zombie breaking free of the bonds of hell! What can I say? I'm a classicist.
But all the pieces were so excellent, so I gave everybody an award. Please see the stickies on this PDF.
- Stefan Bucher
A huge thanks to our guest judge, Stefan Bucher of The Daily Monster! And thank you to everyone who submitted their Scary Hello's!
Here are some clues to the next contest theme with The Hello Project:
2UP. Hedgehog. Power Pad.
Can you guess what the theme is?

Why Greatness?
What is greatness? Merriam-Webster defines "greatness" by using other words such as largeness in size, remarkable in magnitude, and remarkable in skill. I actually think there is something in all of us that longs for greatness. As created beings we carry some of the attributes of our Creator. Our longing for greatness is a reflection of his very nature. But our longings are flawed. They are flawed by our own inherent selfishness in search of significance. So what is greatness really about? Why should we ever seek to be great?
I believe the Bible speaks to this in a profound way. There are many places in Scripture where we could find an answer, but I will highlight one verse that shows up early in the Biblical narrative. Genesis 12 is about God choosing a man to enact His redemptive plan for the nations. God had created mankind in Genesis 1 and 2 to be image bearers of His glory and stewards of His perfect creation. But in Genesis 3 mankind chose a different course. Sin entered the world and all of creation suffered the consequences. The rest of the Bible is about God chasing relentlessly after people to draw them back into relationship with Himself. In Genesis 12 Abram is given a covenant promise by God that he will somehow be used to enact this pursuit. In the midst of this promise God also states that He will make Abram's name great! And that promise has come to pass. Abraham (his name was changed by God later in Genesis) is revered by Christians, Muslims, and Jews. Abraham's name became large. It became remarkable. Abraham's story lasts from Genesis 12-25 and is referenced in many more places within the biblical storyline. But when God promised to make Abraham's name great He also stated why He would make it great.
And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you and make your name great, so that you will be a blessing.
Do you see the "so that?" That is a purpose statement. The purpose of Abraham's greatness is blessing. He was to be a blessing to others. Can I suggest that this is the same purpose for all greatness? All greatness under God's economy is for the purpose of blessing others.
When anyone acquires greatness it can only proceed in one of two directions. Either it will move toward self-aggrandizement or it will move toward selfless blessing of others. Even secular people get this at times. They recognize that their greatness is a "blessing" in some way and they turn it toward the benefit of others.
Ultimately, the way in which Abraham was to be a blessing was in the heritage of Jesus Christ. In Jesus Christ we see God's redemptive plan in fullness. In Christ we have the ultimate blessing because He is the only sufficient sacrifice to correct our inherent selfishness. For the Christ follower, greatness poured out in blessing to others should rightly point others to the ultimate blessing-Christ Himself.
Leader-do you aspire to greatness? Why? May what ever greatness you achieve be poured out in blessing to all within your sphere of influence.
Lead well!

Travel Guide Asia Indonesia Maluku Islands Ambon
Ambon is an island and part of the Maluku Islands of Indonesia. The island has an area of 775 km2, and is mountainous, well watered, and fertile. Ambon Island consists of two territories: the main city and seaport is Ambon, which is also the capital of Maluku province, and Maluku Tengah.
Ambon Island lies off the southwest coast of the much larger Seram island. It is on the north side of the Banda Sea, part of a chain of volcanic islands that encircle the sea. It is 51 kilometres long and is of very irregular shape, being almost divided in two. The southeastern and smaller portion, a peninsula (called Leitimor) is connected to the northern (Hitoe) by a narrow neck of land. The highest mountains, Wawani 1,100 metres and Salahutu 1,225 metres, have hot springs and solfataras. They are volcanoes, and the mountains of the neighboring Uliaser islands, extinct volcanoes. Wild areas of Ambon Island are covered by tropical rainforest, part of the Seram rain forests ecoregion, together with neighboring Seram. Seram, Ambon, and most of Maluku are part of Wallacea, the group of Indonesian islands that are separated by deep water from both the Asian and Australian continents, and have never been linked to the continents by land.
The average temperature is 27 °C, rarely falling below 22 °C. Rainfall can be heavy, especially after the eastern monsoons, and the island is vulnerable to violent typhoons. The dry season (October to April) is coincident with the period of the west monsoon.
Pattimura Airport offers flights to/from Jakarta, Surabaya, Makassar, Dobo, Langgur, Sanana, Saumlaki, Ternate, Jayapura, Fakfak, Manokwari, Nabire, Kaimana and Sorong.
We don't currently have any Travel Helpers for Ambon

Took me about an hour to figure this out ... i know im slow
Just do fn "function" F8 and fn F7 to make it dimmer.
Also if you hold ctrl alt and tap F8 twice it will go to a all black screen ... then ctrl alt F7 to bring it back ... pretty nifty shoulder surfing feature =]
You can also log out to just a bash prompt by doing ctrl alt backspace.
I just wish the ctrl c and ctrl v worked for copy and paste as i used those the most .. shift + insert is just to damn far away and requires 2 hands =[

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
OK , this company send him a list of things he was " charged " with . There are several in which aren't true / inaccurate . They will not back up this information with anything from the courts . I've gone on the MINX site , searched his name and paid for another company to pull a background and all that comes up is his DUI and resisting arrest ( during the DUI ) from 2009 . Is there a way ON LINE to get copies of his whole record to give to the employer ? Other wise he's missing out on a great job ( which we need ) because the company they hired doesn't do their job correctly .
It sounds like the problem may be "non-conviction data"...not all arrests/charges are pursued by the prosecutor, but the records remain--other agencies besides the courts keep records that may be reported on background checks. If he hasn't already, he should start with a WATCH report:
Also, the Washington ACLU has some great guides about how to obtain and understand criminal history reports, and understanding employment rights relating to criminal history report:
If those aren't enough, he should consult with an attorney about getting this all cleared up.
Avvo answers are attorney opinions offered for informational purposes only, and should not be relied upon as legal advice. Use of the Avvo Q&A forum does not create any attorney-client relationship.Ask a similar question
So we pulled the WATCH report. Everything is correct on there except it says he's both male and female and has green eyes (he has brown). Is that something we should be concerned with?
I can't say for sure. My primary practice is family law, so when I need WATCH reports it's to screen for potential issues with household members that might affect child placement, generally not for the benefit of the subject of the report. If I were getting a report for myself or a client and I found incorrect information like this it might raise red flags about possible identity theft if there is a female using his identity, or it could be as innocuous as someone checking the wrong box on a form, or there could be someone else who legitimately has the same name as him. Generally when there is a potentially problematic discrepancy or ambiguity we do a follow-up with fingerprints to make sure we have the right person's report, but that takes more time and money, so if it's not a problem with the employer and there are no issues with his credit report, that may not be necessary or worthwhile. It all depends on what the employer will accept. Also, he may want to contact the background check service the employer uses to get them to remove the incorrect information--sometimes more effective if you have an attorney make that demand, but possibly worth a try to do it yourself.
I think we will have to contact the company that did the original check. The Employer terminated his employment because of the report Sterling infosystems gave to them. They stated we had 8 days to dispute the information on the report however they took well over 2 weeks to give us the report (wouldn't go over it over the phone either, we tried) so by the time we got it it was "too late". We've made the employer aware of the issue and they pretty much told him too bad because they have always used this company, etc.

2. She's one of the world's top lingerie models, posing for LASCANA in Italy in numerous sexy campaigns.

Shanghai Woman Nearly Mows Down Men For A New Car
I remember how badly I wanted, no needed, an Easy-Bake Oven when I was little. I begged my dad, pleaded with my mom, wept often, and eventually started cooking things in plastic cups on top of lamps in my bedroom cause I'm mad crafty. I got my sweet revenge when that burning plastic smell filled the house. But some girls will do whatever it takes to get what they want, including this woman in China who threw a hissy fit at a car dealership when her guy refused to buy her a car. The event was captured on video and posted on China's version of YouTube. So far, almost 2 million folks have watched it, and it's sparked a huge debate about gender. Why? Because in the vid, the woman yells at her male companion when he tells her the car "doesn't suit" her, and again when he says, "It's like this each time we go shopping. I'm not buying this car for you." She proceeds to drive the car back and forth in the showroom until the man gives in and gets her the car. (And, uh, the video was titled, "What Shanghainese women are like," even though the exchange was in Mandarin—not Shanghai. Details, details!) Many of the commenters showed admiration for the woman, saying things like, "In the end she won, that's the moral of this tale!"
What do you think, is it okay to throw a hissy fit to get your way?

It is the intention of CBOE Holdings to use the net proceeds from the shares sold by the company for general corporate purposes, including the repurchase of shares of the common stock to be issued to CBOE members in the demutualization and to members of the settlement class who will be receiving stock under the settlement agreement in the exercise right litigation between CBOE and former members of the Chicago Board of Trade.

About MeI've been part of the animal and entertainment business ever since I was very young. My family owns an animal training business and has educational bird shows in theme parks around the world. So, if animal experience is needed for any type of photoshoot or runway project, I would love to work with you. I have been modeling since I was about 13, so for 5 years now, but have more recently gotten much more of my experience in my past 3 years of modeling. I have done many photoshoots, as well as runway shows such as Sacramento Fashion Week for two years in a row (1st year: Kennie's Doll, 2nd year: Made To Fit Couture, Nolan Kouri), Nordstrom's Fashion's Night Out in the Arden Fair mall in Sacramento, CA. I have also done a charity fashion show called "Vintage & Vogue" for designer Caren Templet, in which I was rewarded with a full page spread, along with two other pictures, in SacTown Magazine, for the December 2012-January 2013 issue. I am a very creative person, I love to work with photographers, and I work very well with other people in general. I am a very positive person and I'm excited to model and work with new people and work on interesting projects!

Damn. I thought this thread would get a few replies.
Sigh...ignorance is bliss, I have no bliss.
Posted a thread yesterday concerning the World Freedom Report 2012
Was how America ranks against the world in freedom. Overall, 18th.
In 4 out of the 5 criteria scored, the US placed no better than 31st and in one case (size of government) placed 101 out of 144.
Know who scored better in every category? Those pesky Muslim nations that supposedly have no freedom.
Countries like Syria, Qatar, UAE, Jordan, and Saudi Arabia, beat the beacon of freedom in at least one of the five categories presented. Qatar got 3 out of 5 higher.
UAE beat the US on every one.
In fact, in the top 20...meaning countries with more overall freedoms...
2 are middle east Muslim countries. 15 are either Communist or Socialist. The rest are Democracies.
All Democratic countries scored in the bottom 40% when it came to their Legal system and Property rights. Also scored in bottom 10% when it came to ability to trade internationally and sound money. America was only Democracy in top 50 when it came to sound money. 7Th overall behind Slovakia, Portugal, Belgium, and get this...Romania.
Know how many views its had in 36 hours? Not one.
Both of these threads seem to be more important than the newest Nibiru thread, but what do I know.
