    2. Coffee helps you burn fat and improve physical performance
    3. Coffee lowers the risk of Type-2 diabetes
    4. Coffee lowers the risk of Alzheimer's and Parkinson's
    5. Coffee is good for your liver
    6. Coffee decreases risk of premature death
    7. Coffee is loaded with nutrients and antioxidants

    Coffee around the World

    Elena Romantseva: "Yesterday happened to be my favourite cup's last coffee time. It was a beautiful morning near the Neva River that flows through Saint Petersburg, Russia."

    Caroline Gibson: "Coffee Eritrean style: a pottery jug filled with water, boiled over hot coals, with ground coffee, ginger and various herbs added. Mesh is then inserted in the spout of a hand-thrown jug, and coffee is poured. Sugar is added to taste, and milk not an option. It took 20 minutes and we watched the ebb and flow of people in the market around us - best coffee stop ever."

    Muna Hassan: "Tania's Teahouse in Dubai. When you don't bother removing the stencil because you're worried you might take a sip before getting the satisfactory picture."

    I'm a coffee hound; there are legends of us. But I also enjoy a hot cup of tea. In fact, the past few mornings I have gotten the coffee ready to turn on when my roommate gets up around nine, nine-thirty, or ten. I'm usually up at six-thirty, not later than seven-thirty on certain days. Like I say. I get the coffee ready while the tea kettle is on the fire heating water, for a cup of tea. I have been buying and drinking a couple of favorite teas from the Republic ofTea, and two or three from the Upton Tea Importers. I like the Assam Breakfast tea and the Golden Yunnan from ROT and a strong Assam blend, And the smoky Lapsang Soughongs and the Russican Caravan. a blended, flavorful tea. Those are my favorites and I buy the whole leaf teas from importers.So, if there is such a thing as tea meow or hound, I guess I'm one of those too. Right now I'm wondering if this joint who caters to seniors, might have a cup of black tea or acup of hot water and a good teabag. If not, I want be disappointed, I'll have a cup of good coffee.

    Remember when they used to report the traffic fatalities on the news after every holiday?
