it looks as though Mr Van de Walle's gadgetry and his directors' enthusiasm are providing only scant encouragement. George Clooney the Hollywood actor who has been endorsing in Europe Nestl's fastestgrowing brand, Nespresso did not show up at this week's grand opening in Paris of the Swiss multinational's lavish new coffee shop on the ChampsElyses. But Sharon Stone turned up instead to ensure maximum publicity for what, after all, has become Nestl's biggest marketing success story in recent years. Sales of Nespresso coffee machines and capsules have been growing during the past six years by an average of 30 per cent a year. Last year, they increased by 42 per cent to SFr1.16bn and are expected to hit the SFr2bn mark by 2009. The Swiss food group is planning a massive expansion of Nespresso boutiques round the world, targeting luxury shopping streets such as Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills. The idea is to turn Nespresso into a luxury brand that can sit alongside a Louis Vuitton or Harry Winston store. Nestl's star brand risks facing the same dilemma as a pharmaceutical group's blockbuster drug.

Thank 'ou vedy much the hostess used to say. No, thank YOU for the surprise dish! For this reason, I rarely eat oriental food. One time I got some teriyaki chicken from Pink Pepper and dang if it wasn't the oddest looking chicken meat I ever saw. I couldn't eat it, thinking in my mind that it was cat meat. And ever since then, I just can't enjoy an oriental chicken dish. Just the fact that their home countries find cat meat a delicacy makes me feel kinda sick. So if you've ever lived near one of these restaurants and wind up with a missing kitty. You never know if that's what will be served up on your plate the next day when you go to eat there. YAGH! I say our pets are as smart as the owner. Now, there are some breeds of animals that are very high risk. When I went to get homeowners insurance once they gave me list of breeds of dogs that would deny me homeowners insurance. Huge list also, from pit bulls to our fav little taco bell doggy. LOL. I have known a few good pit bull owners but I have known far more who never should have a pit bull because that dog gives them balls.
