„The idea of marketing fairly priced products from cooperatives is not entirely new, particularly for people who were sympathetic to Central America's revolutionary movements of the 1980s. At that time, solidarity activists and organizations, such as the Boston-based group Equal Exchange, were importing and selling small amounts of Nicaraguan coffee to support that country's Sandinista movement, and paying farmers fair prices. Their support made the difference in many cooperatives keeping rather than losing their land when the Sandinistas lost power in 1990. The Fair Trade Federation, the national association of fair trade retailers and wholesalers, boasts over a hundred business members that import or market crafts with the primary motive of supporting cooperative producers with fair prices.“

Amazon.com: Books: The Mystery of Capital: Why Capitalism Triumphs in the West and Fails Everywhere Else (#)

„Although de Soto draws on huge amounts of data and some actual successes in the third world, this book strikes me as the kind of "grand explanation" that makes a lot of sense when you read it, but pales when you read the next person's "grand explanation." As several reviewers pointed out, it's hard to believe that real estate is the key factor in capitalization, though registering titles may well be the most effective next step that can be taken in developing countries. I disagree with the analysis of the reader who calculated the average per capita dead capital in the third world and asserted that USD 2,000 to 3,000 is not enough to start a business -- this figure is well above what many small entrepreneurs begin with, being several times the per capita income in their respective countries.“

„The mean daily amounts of copper and zinc found in hospital diets by atomic absorption spectrometry were 0.76 and 9.4 mg, respectively. Comparison of these diets with published data showed median daily amounts of copper and zinc to be 0.78 and 12.0 mg, respectively, for 20 diets made from conventional foods. These amounts of copper and zinc are less than the 2 mg of copper and 13 mg of zinc thought to be required daily by adults. Hospital diets and perhaps diets in general seem to be low in copper and zinc; the amounts of copper are lower than those of zinc in comparison with respective requirements.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso Machines - Steam Models - Robert King's Review (#)

„- The frothing tube is _way too short_.  It's difficult to froth/steam large amounts of milk when you can only get the aid only so deep into a container.  Best used for making 1-2 servings, despite the machine's claim to be able to make at least 4.“

CoffeeGeek - Bodum Santos Electronic - Tarik Ghbeish's Review (#)

„Unlike other reviewers, I've had no problems making 4 cups amounts (which seems to make just enough coffee for my morning) and I was able to use it non-stop through at least pound or so of beans at a memorial service where I was asked to make the coffee.“

Global Exchange : Coffee here, hardship there (#)

„"It's a justice issue," he said. "It's totally unfair that between the picker and the person lifting that cup of coffee that someone is making such large amounts of money and the people down there don't get a fair price. It's unconscionable."“

How To Brew Coffee - National Coffee Association (#)

„Fresh roasted coffee is essential to a superb cup of coffee. And purchase your coffee in small amounts -- only as much as you can use in a given period of time.  Ideally you should purchase your coffee fresh every 1-2 weeks.“

„It's clear that as WROX has grown, they have not been able to maintain the same level of quality they once had. Their editors are clearly not involved in the process, and arent creating anything that amounts to higher learning.“

„Every dish was like a dream, I can't wait until I can prepare new recipes. Nothing is too heavy, the oil amounts are perfect, not too rich, or too weak. Can't say enough good things about it, just buy it and you will see!“

„However, in view of the lack of last year’s jubilee activities WMF was able to maintain its position in the weak industrial environment. The share of foreign business of the total turnover amounts to 39.1%.“
