Primetimetables.com – Specializing in Impossible tables
Just when you think you seen it all ..You haven’t .
PrimeTimeTables.com, which opened for business earlier this month, works differently. Its charge for snagging a reservation off its list of New York City’s finest restaurants is sizable, and customers pay it, not operators.
No upfront fee is required for a basic membership. However, users have to pay:
• $35 for reservations purchased up to 48 hours prior to the reservation date/time;
• $40 for reservations purchased the day before expiration; or
• $45 for reservations purchased the same day before 1 p.m.
Premium memberships require a $450 annual fee up front, with the following fee schedule in effect:
• $35 for reservations purchased up to $48 hours prior;
• $25 for reservations purchased the day before expiration; or
• FREE for reservations purchased the same day before 1 p.m.

Playittonight.com Wins Business plan contest
And the winner is 22-year-old Capilano College business degree student Sean Gallagher, who won first place at BDC’s regional Enterprize competition on Jan. 27.
Approximately 100 students from British Columbia had initially entered the contest in November 2006, with all but one coming from a university. That upstart entrant was Gallagher, a third-year student currently enrolled in Capilano College’s business administration degree program.
He took home a cheque for $15,000 and won the right to represent British Columbia at BDC’s national complement competition, being held in Vancouver Feb. 15-18. Winners at that competition will receive a business grant of $75,000 and will meet with BDC venture capital representatives to obtain feedback on their business projects.
In a recent press release, Gallagher stated that he was cool and calm when he was presenting in front of the 500 spectators and judges, but when he found out he won, he lost all the feeling in his hands. He notes that he had to walk down about 40 stairs to get to the stage and he could barely keep his feet on the ground. He said he kept tripping and felt as though he was floating.
