  • Coffee And Espresso - All About The Coffee Delight - Coffee is one of the most popular drinks around, followed by soft drinks and tea. Just think about it: when you wake up in the morning, just to get you up and running, you have a cup of coffee. At lunch break, after you've had your meal, you serve another cup of coffee, not to mention the other ones you already had back at the office while working, without even realizing it. When you ask someone out, the most chances are that you ask him or her out for a coffee. But what is coffee all about?
  • Some People Will Eat Anything - WARNING: This week's column contains news so scary, so utterly horrific, that I, the author of said column, hereby declare that I will not be held responsible for the mental anguish or irreparable emotional damage caused by reading it.

  • How the Ancient Roman Empire still influences our lives today - The Roman Empire, at its height, included about a fourth of Europe, much of the Middle East, and the entire northern coastal area of Africa. Its millions of people spoke many languages and worshipped different gods, but they were united by the military power and government of the Romans.

  • Cutting Propagation for Bonsai - There are lots of methods to take cuttings for bonsai, this is the one that I have had the most success with. Equipment For cuttings: I use a 100 watt Metal Halide Light source, I have also had equal success with fluorescents. For bottom heat I am using a Hydrofarm heat mat with thermostat. The thermostat will be set at 75 degrees, which is especially useful for Japanese Maples. Pots and Soil: For the container I will be using a 1/2 size flat with a 36 cell pack. The soil will be an equal mix of peat and perlite. This is a light mix which will help with early root development and prevent fungal attack.

  • Celebrity Fascination and the Modern State of American Culture - Celebrities are people too, or so we've been told. Whether or not it's true, Americans love to think of them as something more than just people. We are fascinated by them. Fascinated by the choices they make, the company they keep and whether or not they succeed or fail. We watch them on the way up and watch them even more closely on the way down. We scrutinize them in every way, mindful of the mistakes they make even more than we are of the successes they create. So why are we are so fascinated by celebrity culture? Certainly part of it is the media, which reports on their actions as though the world's fate depended on it.

  • Do You Want Fries With That Management Style? - I've written many times about my vast experience in the fast food industry, not as a worker, but as an often mistreated customer. Each story typically involved bad food, apathetic employees, horrible customer service, and a vow never to return. That vow usually ended up in the dumpster when my craving for a chicken burrito got the better of my logic and principles. This time I'm talking about fast food for a different reason. There are lessons to be learned from those who toil behind the counters of America's fast food joints.
  • Clothes Grace the Dance - The dazzling costumes in NTDTV's Chinese New Year Spectacular are as much a part of each dance as the dance movements themselves. They are, in many ways, the palette on which the dance is performed. Clothes, hair, colors-this is what transports us to the Divine Land of ancient China. The Spectacular's wardrobe designers put great effort into creating just the right effect. A costume starts with a concept of the dance. The dance may have a powerful story or be found in a specific dynasty. Designers pore over paintings, frescoes and even statues to find the right look. Accessories then come into the design-hair, shoes, hats, belts. Next come sketches. Designers must consider not only how an outfit looks but also its flexibility for dance movements and whether it is durable enough to withstand over eighty performances. Then the sketch goes to the sewing workshop.
