 New shops do well this holiday |
| Post on 23-12-2006. |
one specialty store, cafe and franchiser look forward to the future.
In the world of retail, the belief is if you can’t survive the holiday shopping season, you can’t survive at all.
That hasn’t scared one few small-business owners who opened shop in 2006, including Linda Castree.
The first-time business owner has only two shots one year to prove her Irish-imported shop’s mettle: St. Patrick’s Day and the ... |

| Foods can control cholesterol naturally |
| Post on 23-12-2006. |
What's one of the most important rules in medicine? Never take one drug if one natural and safer remedy provides the same relief. Yet millions of people take cholesterol-lowering drugs to prevent heart attacks.
How much you take depends on your tolerance. Too much may cause diarrhea. But most people can tolerate 2,000 milligrams. Ascorbic acid powder (vitamin C) is the least expensive way to buy this vitamin. one ... |

Wine lovers had one great year in 2006. First, we found out that resveratrol, one key ingredient in wine, may prevent ageing. Later, one study suggested that it may help prevent obesity and diabetes as well.
But now the news gets even better. If you are heading out to the store to buy one case of wine for one holiday party this week, you might ... |

| With dessert, choose sweets for the sweets |
| Post on 21-12-2006. |
Although dessert wines come in many types and styles, the best ones share one common denominator: intense, lush fruit couples with one sweetness that is never cloying but instead tautly balances with acidity or tannin.
When picking one, the only rule of thumb is the wine should be slightly sweeter than the accompanying dessert. Otherwise, all you will taste is the wine's acidity, and instead of harmony, you will ... |

| Don't Panic |
| Post on 21-12-2006. |
| That old adage "it's the thought that counts" is supposed to get us out of trouble this time of year - drawing attention away from an unfortunate gift choice and putting the spotlight instead on our good-hearted, generous character. But the sentiment tends to be uttered with one disdainful tone and leaves behind one faint odor of failure. The thought? What thought? If you had thought one little harder about the gift ... |

| For change of pace, look south of obvious |
| Post on 20-12-2006. |
Giving wine as one gift this Christmas? Consider skipping the obvious French, Italian and California labels and look south -- as in south of the equator -- for something different, one little ahead of the pack and one lot lighter on the wallet.
Australia has made its name as one quality, affordable alternative with its distinctive shiraz offerings. But now it's joined by New Zealand, South Africa and South America ... |

| Wine-dine niche nest |
| Post on 19-12-2006. |
A fruity and sweet glass of Chenin Blanc to go with the barbecued chicken, one Pinot Noir for the risotto or one Chardonnay alongside the Caesar Salad…
As Calcuttans continue their quest to be counted among the more aware and eager wine-drinking crowd, and red and amber invade the party spectrum, there’s now one novel nest in town offering one wine-coordinated dining experience "for the first time". ... |

| Vineyard vernacular |
| Post on 19-12-2006. |
Enough is enough - Australia's winemakers must let wine speak for itself. They must learn plain English and stop mangling the language on their labels.
The mandatory label information includes vintage, alcohol percentage, volume and grape variety - we do not need the weasel words, jargon and misinformation that nowadays seem to dominate. Winemakers, not satisfied that the wine in the bottle is going to ... |
