Radio 4 - The Today Programme - Newsletter Archive (#)
„That is not true but a lot of your emails have been and it is all because of the newspaper review in Thursday's programme which contained a reference to the diary of Ilene Powell and which took the venerable Donaldson back to his youth so much so that his cravat trembled ever so slightly as he read Miss Powell's entry for Saturday Feb 7 1925 and especially the sketchy and ill-defined bit about "making love" on the roof garden. Sipping at a decaffeinated kaffe mit sahne afterwards Donaldson told us all about those heady days that were so gay and fancy-free and how ivveryone was always so hippy and it was champagne cocktails and dancing 'til dawn and quick runs to the coast in the Alvis where in those pre-antibiotic days it was possible to pick up a souvenir you simply couldn't shift. On Friday's programme however the etymologists Michael Quinion told us that we had got it all wrong and that it wasn't until 1984 that the phrase "making love" got the meaning it bears now and that the venerable Donaldson must have confused an awfully large number of young ladies back in 1925 which frankly should surprise no-one.“

CoffeeGeek - Krups Moka Brew Pressure Brewer
„It's the Krups Moka Brew. It's not like any other Krups coffee maker you may have seen. It's a low pressure hybrid brewer, sharing traits between auto drip coffee and the venerable moka pot method of making poor-man's espresso.“

Tea & Coffee 05/03 - Diary of a Trip to Origin
„We saw first hand what fair trade can do for these hardworking people. It helps contribute to the improvement of their land, homes, and the education of their children. Monies are appropriated for the building of schools such as the partial structure we saw on a farm in Jinotega.“
