„There are just over two weeks until Italians vote in a general election, and the incumbent left-wing coalition is beginning to narrow Mr Berlusconi's lead in the polls. A poll for the publishing group L'Espresso shows Mr Berlusconi's centre-right bloc on 36%, while the left headed by former Rome mayor Francesco Rutelli had risen to 32% - up from 27% a week earlier. On these results, Mr Berlusconi would have to rely on the support of the far-right Northern League party to gain control of parliament. However almost one third of voters are still undecided.“

Tips on Coffee - The history of coffee
„By the 18th century, the beverage had become popular in Europe, and European colonists had introduced coffee to tropical countries worldwide as a plantation crop to supply domestic demand. During the 19th century, European demand for coffee was so strong that when genuine coffee beans were scarce, people developed similar-tasting substitutes from various roasted vegetable substances, such as chicory root, dandelion root, acorns, or figs. For example, the British used acorns as a coffee substitute during World War II while German U-boats blockaded Britain. Today, the major coffee-producing regions are tropical South America (Colombia is famous for its coffee), Vietnam, Kenya, Côte d'Ivoire, and others.“

The Finest Espresso Machines of San Francisco
„The business started as Thomas Cara's idea while he was stationed in Europe during the middle 1940's. Espresso played an important role in both his and Mrs. Caras' lives so, while working in Milan, he purchased a monstrous gas-fired, chrome-plated Pavoni model espresso machine direct from their factory. Upon returning to the States they realized that there was no better way to pursue a culinary passion than to start a store that catered to people just like the two of them.“
