Circuit City, Linens & Things and Sharper Image have all been in a downward trend for years.  Their  respective direct competitors: Best Buy, Bed Bath & Beyond and Brookstone- should become much stronger.  And in theory should actually help correct the economic problems we see today. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2009 7:47PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[you make it sound like a crime to infuse your own money to make your business work]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bostonbutt]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2009 11:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[I can't believe the U. S. is spending millions of dollars to fight obesity and the Food Channel is flaunting Paula Dean, the Barefoot Contessa, and Emeril the biggest heaps on the air. Combined they must weigh seven hundred pounds. Their food is killer dynamite. How can they allow that?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 9th 2009 11:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[To each - his own.

The cussing gets their attention as well as cracks me along with millions of viewers. Americans are too spoilt and cant take straight up critique.   The ones complaining wish they were him.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[michella]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 9:50AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[There is a time and place for everything, including swearing.

There is instruction and there is constructive criticism - he gives neither.  He's a vulgar, foul-mouthed diva who apparently takes great pleasure in very publicly humiliating people. Granted it makes for more "drama" for the trashier sort lacking sufficient class to recognize any wrong in his foul mouthings or conduct. ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John Marshall]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 1:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[I used to watch the show on occasion, up until the point when Ramsay’s mother made a guest appearance on the show, and he chastised one of the contestants for swearing in front of dear old "Mum." <br><br>After listening to Ramsay drop countless F-Bombs on the entire American viewing public I couldn’t believe he would have the nerve to ask one of the contestants tone down her language in front of his mother.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[JM]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 7:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[Heres the thing..If you dont like gordon ramsey..dont watch the show...period..end of story]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ray]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 10:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[I think Gordon Ramsey is FANTASTIC!. The man knows his craft and takes NO B.S. from anyone. He ALSO gets respect by knowing that, in these financially strapped times...closing a few of his restaurants will help his holding become more stable. He doesn't HAVE to..he chooses to due to the money pinch EVERYONE is feeling, not just himself. OK, he has a potty mouth...so WHAT???. If anyone doesn't like it they can just not watch him. <br><br>There are people who have truly benefited from his culinary knowledge. Like the young woman who didn't have the money to go to culinary school. Gordon saw her talent and paid her way through. It not only was a nice thing to do but a WISE thing to do. He knows real talent and likes to see it grow.<br><br>To any naysayers..the remote control DOES have a channel change button...use it please. Gordon will STILL be doing what he loves..cooking and teaching and the naysayers will STILL be sitting in their lazy boy chairs b***ing.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[MaryMRevis]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 10th 2009 10:40PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[I luv Gordon Ramsy.

Perhaps the problem resides not with the cop-out issue of "blaming the bank", but the fact that a TV cook attempting to run any eatery fails to deliver a credible product to prospective customers.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rebecca Pidgeon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 11th 2009 3:03PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2009/02/08/british-top-chef-in-financial-trouble/</guid><description><![CDATA[I have always suspected that the plethora of mediocre TV cooks were over glorified "soux-chefs", gained their fame through being "fad" of the week, and that the likes of Antony Worrel Thompson, Gordon Ramsay and Jamie Oliver would find it difficult to get any job within a fast food restaurant. Frankly, I would hate to think that my bank would ever employ any teller who would agree to any loan application from any TV cook.<br><br>Of course, if unemployment beckons, I am sure that the local Fast Food Restaurant would be more than happy to offer a position to any TV cook as a "Short Order Cook" or someone to assist customers at the till, or even as someone to clean the tables after the customers had departed.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gina D Torres]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 12th 2009 1:46PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
