Different types of coffee

Image
Take a look at the different types of coffees that you can order in a Coffee House. Have you ever wondered what they actually were? Below is a list of the different types of coffees you can order at most Coffee Houses. CaffÈ Latte ...... [caf-AY LAH-tay] Espresso with steamed milk and in some shops, a small cap of foam. It has less foam than a cappuccino. Definitions blur easily here. In Australia: " 'Latte' gets you a _glass_ with a shot of espresso and lots of milk and some foam - half way between a flat white and a cap. Seems to have originated as the breakfast drink of Sydney commuters. Has become infinitely fashionable due to the need for brass glass holders, which only the fashionable coffee houses have (the rest of us wrap the glass in a napkin)" Kenneth Davids, noted coffee author, says that CafÉ au lait is simply the French name for CaffÈ Latte. He states that in Spain, this same drink is called CafÉ con leche ***** CaffÈ Mocha ........ [caf-AY MO

Double treble for Kedah

Image
By ERIC SAMUEL KUALA LUMPUR: Kedah made history when they sealed their second consecutive treble with a 3-2 come-from-behind win over Selangor in the Malaysia Cup final at the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil last night. Kedah, who have already retained the FA Cup and Super League crowns, thus, confirm their status as the new powerhouse of Malaysian football. But it took them a while to get going in front of the 50,000-odd fans. And that too only after Selangor had drawn first blood when Frank Seator put them ahead in the 18th minute. The Canaries then turned on the power to floor the Red Giants with three goals in six minutes. The champs: Kedah’s Sultan Abdul Halim Mu’adzam Shah holding the Malaysia Cup with skipper Victor Andrag after the Canaries beat Selangor 3-2 in the Malaysia Cup final in Bukit Jalil Saturday night. — KAMAL SELLEHUDDIN/ The Star First, Marlon Alex James equalised in the 32nd minute before Nelson Sam Martin put them ahead a minute later.

Yesterday, I went to Star Parade for PIKOM PC Fair. I was really excited for that PC Fair since I missed it few times before. But this time, i got a mission... looking for a laptop for my younger sister budget allocated is below RM 2000. As usual all the Internet service providers also there and they came up with promotions and sort of stuff. I was surprised to see Acer Aspire One is available for only RM 1299, since my fren told me that he buy that laptop at RM 1399.Hey, it's Cheaper RM 100 than offered at PIKOM PC Fair at PISA ,Penang last week... ! I plan to buy one for myself..but not now, maybe next year . My Compaq Presario V 3010 is more than enough at the moment. I recommended Acer Aspire One to my younger sister coz' it small and suitable for her (well..it's easy to carry smaller laptop while travel from University (Kelantan) to home town (Kedah)but she prefer to have a 14 inch screen size laptop. So, we surveyed few laptops from Compaq. Since our budget cannot exc

Anger And Resentment:10 Tips And Instant Strategies

by: Bill Urell Anger and resentments can blemish even the best of memories. All of us have wonderful childhood memories: afternoons on the garden swing spent eating fresh apple pie; Saturday morning cartoons while we ate our favorite cereal; and evenings getting tucked into bed, with wishes of sweet dreams. Not all of us, however, possess such memories: there are the bouts of anger, fights between our parents, even beatings. No wonderful childhood memories can ever make a child forget a stormy childhood; such a childhood may even lead to resentments later on in life. Resentments can stem from anywhere: they can start in childhood, continue into the peer pressure of adolescence, and persist well into adulthood when we are old enough to bear long, deep-seated grudges. Although resentment is a fact of life, it is not necessarily the best way to live life. Resentment can eat away at our energy, making us feel lethargic and unable to perform simple tasks. Resentment can also affect our soci
