Amazon.com: Books: Drinking Coffee Elsewhere (Alex Awards (Awards)) (#)

  „Now, in Drinking Coffee Elsewhere, her impressive range and talent are abundantly evident. Packer dazzles with her command of language-surprising and delighting us with unexpected turns and indelible images, as she takes us into the lives of characters on the periphery, unsure of where they belong. With penetrating insight that belies her youth-she was only nineteen years old when Seventeen magazine printed her first published story-Packer takes us to a Girl Scout camp, where a troupe of black girls are confronted with a group of white girls, whose defining feature turns out to be not their race but their disabilities; to the Million Man March on Washington, where a young man must decide where his allegiance to his father lies; to Japan, where an international group of drifters find themselves starving, unable to find work.“

Global Exchange : Starbucks Coffee in Mexico, new controversy

  „Esta caracterización, responde Starbucks, ignora la diferencia entre los tipos de café disponibles en los mercados internacionales. El precio del café está a niveles muy bajos (unos 43 centavos por libra) pero el café adquirido por Starbucks es del mercado especializado, donde los precios son mucho más altos. "Starbucks paga un promedio de 1.20 la libra para todo el café que compramos, que tiene un precio fijo, ese es un 70 por ciento del café que adquirimos", explicó Sue Mecklenburg, vicepresidenta para Responsabilidad Social Corporativa de Starbucks, en entrevista con La Jornada.“

Schomer's Table@Lucidcafé 18

  „Pictured here is our "ergo-packer". It is a design directly derived from the traditional Italian flat-packer I was given in Trieste by Illy Caffe in 1988. It is called a flat packer due to the flat bottom. As the bottom of the coffee basket is also flat, a flat packer provides a packed cake of coffee that is an even thickness.“

Amazon.com: Books: The Antioxidant Miracle: Put Lipoic Acid, Pycogenol, and Vitamins E and C to Work for You

  „The first two are obtained through food, the others are produced by the body, but these levels decline as we age, so we need to supplement. Packer describes the benefits and actions of these special antioxidants and also recommends flavonoids such as ginkgo biloba and pycnogenol (made from the bark of pine trees), a number of carotenoids, selenium, and a variety of foods high in antioxidants. He spells out exactly what supplements you need and how much, with special modifications for smokers, diabetics, menopausal women, athletes, and people at high risk of cancer or cardiovascular disease. The book is not easy reading: lots of scientific explanations and study descriptions.“
