„The misfortune disturbed him to excess; he immediately sent for Mir Jafir; and as soon as he entered the tent, flung his turban on the ground, saying "Jafir, that turban you must defend". "The other bowed, and with his hands on his breast, promised his utmost services; and returning to his troops and associates, immediately dispatched a letter to Colonel Clive, informing him what had passed, and advising him either to push forward in the instant, or at all events, to attack the Nabob's camp at three the next morning".

„An attention to the varying needs of their customers has become more and more important, explains Kyla. In order to survive, today’s café must provide more than good coffee and espresso. They must provide an atmosphere that accommodates their clientele, giving them a reason to keep coming back. Much of their traffic, quickly served, wandered back on their way to their ultimate destination, carrying with them their daily fix.“

„We don't necessarily see a huge change in them, but the very fact that they come back to the bus must say something. I don't think it's because our coffee's so great! I think it's because they recognise we're there because we care about them and they've found someone who'll listen to them and take them seriously. We take their views about God seriously as well.“

„The porta-filter is the entire assembly of the handle, the basket, and the spouts. The porta-filter is always made of metal and must always be warmed before extracting espresso. If you see the porta-filter resting on the tray of the espresso machine at your local coffee shop you should walk out the door. Pre-heating the porta-filter can be done using the hot water nozzle or water from the group head itself. It is not recommended to ever use more than 1-1.5 ounces of water at a time since excess use will cool the hot water reservoir inside the machine. It is essential that you learn how to "temperature surf" on your machine to accurately control the temperature at which the espresso is brewed. Some people recommend leaving used pucks of espresso in the basket to help maintain heat. This advice seems advantageous, but make sure you allow about 1 oz of water to flow out of the head to rinse the screen after pulling each shot.“
