„On Capitol Hill In the Senate The US Senate will join the ranks of the World Bank, the European Parliament and the British House of Commons by serving Fair Trade Certified coffee in its cafeterias. In a signing ceremony of an alliance between the US Agency for International Development and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters, Senator Patrick Leahy (D-VT) announced that "the Senate restaurants will soon be offering the option of Fair Trade Certified coffee to senators, their staffs and the public.

BBC - h2g2 - Lloyd's of London (#)

„Lloyd’s of LondonOne of these coffee houses where underwriting took place was owned by Henry Lloyd. His coffee house was located in Lombard Street, which was close to the docks and so underwriting was very popular at his premises.Each morning Lloyd used to send his waiters down to the dockside to bring news of the new ships that had arrived that night and he used to post this information on the walls of his establishment. This became known as Lloyd’s List and was soon being published as a daily newspaper of that name.As time went on insurance became extremely popular. After the Great Fire of London in 1666, insurance protection for property was provided by new insurance companies as well as at Lloyd’s.The little coffee house in Lombard Street quickly became too small to house all the underwriters, and the premises were moved to a room above the stock exchange with box-like tables and benches.“

Household Welfare and the Pricing of Cocoa and Coffee in Côte d'Ivoire: Lessons (#)

„As a result of a continued decline of world prices of both crops, however, the Ivoirien government was forced to cut producer prices in half. Because 40 percent of Ivoirien households grow either cocoa or coffee, this cut can be expected to have a considerable impact on the welfare level of these households. We use the 1985 Living Standards Measurement Survey to estimate the welfare effects of producer price changes for Ivoirien households, permitting an evaluation of the probable consequences of the recent price cut. Using nonparametric econometric techniques, we find that, although many households will suffer losses of income, the cuts will not have adverse distributional effects: cocoa and coffee farmers are scattered throughout the income distribution, but most are concentrated in the middle.“

India coffee-monthly magazine-Over A Cup Of Coffee (#)

„Similar Coffee Houses are run by Similar Coffee Workers' Co-operative Societies across the country, not just in the bustling metros but in the smaller industrial townships like Bhilai. My brother, who had sampled the brew in the Bhilai Coffee House in the early 1970s, was pleasantly surprised when he returned after three decades early this year to find the same brew being served in the same place. It is fashionable now to talk about the contribution of the fine cafes to promoting the coffee culture. However, decades before they got into the act, the coffee culture was being promoted north of the Vindhyas in the non-traditional consumption areas by the Coffee workers' Cooperative Societies.“

View topic - Kicking around the idea....Christian coffeehouse - Coffee Forum (#)

„Our first coffee house in Texas was bought from Christians who advertised themselves as a Christian coffee house. Not a Christian coffee house open to all walks of life, but a coffee house for Christians to meet and edify. This was not only a terrible business move (alot of non-Christians felt unwelcomed and overwhelmed by the Christian concerts, the literature and blatant pro-Christian artwork concerning Hell and it's members) but it didn't serve a purpose in it's community. Christians still didn't like it because the drinks were unbelievably terrible and the owners refused advice from those of us who knew espresso.“

Coffee on the Road - Grand Circle (INeedCoffee.com) (#)

„The only coffee house near the south rim of the Grand Canyon is Jennifer's Bakery & Coffeehouse. From the article Coffee House Stereotyping , we know rule number 8 is What gets top billing? In short, it states that any coffee house where something other than coffee gets higher billing in either the store's name or menu, you can assume the place sucks. After 3 days without an espresso, my mind couldn't recall that rule and I fell victim to a $3.50 double espresso that was so awful that if it were served to a POW during wartime, the barista could be brought up on war crimes.“

„Cayetano is expected to sign into law today a bill that will require specific disclosure of the percentage of Hawaii coffee used in coffee blends. It is House Bill 2169, and it amends existing statutes regulating coffee labeling for locally produced coffee.

"The labeling requirements in the revised law will allow consumers to clearly distinguish a 100-percent Hawaiian Coffee from a blend that uses both Hawaiian coffee and foreign coffee," he explained.“

The Coffees of Jamaica (#)

„This effort to improve quality, however, was not very successful: until 1943 it was unacceptable to the Canadian market, which at the time was the largest buyer of Jamaican coffee. In 1944 the Government established a Central Coffee Clearing House where all coffee for export had to be delivered to the Clearing House where it was cleaned and graded. Improvement in the quality of JamaicaÕs coffee export was underway. In June 1950 the Coffee Industry Board was established to officially raise and maintain the quality of coffee exported.“

At the end of the event, growers did take steps toward forming such an organization, but they still have much work to do.“
