In Love with Glass Objects? This Is Your Read

Glass is half filled or half empty, how often we have heard this question? Psychiatrists take glass as a tool to measure psycho metrical behavior of their subjects. Archaeologists measure the age of history through traces of glass found in their archaeological sites. Anthropologists use glass to learn more about culture and life styles of earlier civilizations. I have laid my all interests in knowing the beauty and charms being naturally invested to glass and which can be best seen in ornate Glass Chandeliers of Gothic church and to crystalline moldings of freshly vandalized murano glass jewelry. For this time, let’s converge our energies in finding its persona as unbeatable decorative material.

Modern Glass Buildings – Are They Failing Our Histories Old Maxims?

We know glass is really an interesting subject to talk about. From its primordial history to its contemporary use in decors, everything about it is really fascinating. Forged from pure grains of sand, it can come in exquisite ten thousand forms and shapes. In a single breath, I can say 20 times ‘don’t throw stones at others when you yourself live in a glass house’. I am afraid its exaggeration and I am glad I realized it rather quickly. Anyways, the point is, we know this old adage almost since when we first spoke first babbling vowel sounds.
I never realized its meaning until I have seen people living in glass houses.

Now, there are large and spacious glass buildings; hospitals, offices, colleges and many others. They attract our senses because they look inexplicably exotic and beautiful. ‘Don’t throw stones at others while living in glass house’. This wisdom rings truly absurd as long as these buildings are concerned. These glass buildings can’t be broken with mere stones, they are rather bullet proof. Glass becomes unbeatable when it comes to beauty. Light being reflecting and producing vivid ambiance rising sun is a scene to see all along the life.

Why Women Love Glass Objects More Than Anything

Glass is of course beautiful and we have seen that it’s durable too. This is why we see ladies elevating their beauties with murano glass jewelry and people decorating their homes with Italian Chandeliers. But it’s just a start at the subject. There is a world of benefits resting with glass objects.

Elders tell us that a home without ‘feminine presence’ is no home. How ironic is that women don’t think of men this way, instead they believe a house to be no house devoid of glass objects and glass decorations. Nevertheless, they are right in sustaining this argument. Men don’t comply their delicate aesthetics but glass does. Glass shares so many common attributes with their gender. It’s reflects different shades under varying lightings and women also share different moods under varying times.

Glass Ornaments are Durable and Often Inexpensive

Well, glass is of course inexpensive, cheaper than uranium and platinum and from gold and silver as well. But when molded into shapes of art and ornaments, it may become expensive than whole world. Don’t freak out, it was a cheap joke. Glass blowing and molding is rather inexpensive which makes glass object comparatively cheaper than other ornaments.

Most commonly used in murano glass jewelry and home decorative, these glass decorations don’t fall heavy on pockets. You can buy them easily, keep them in home or even gift your friend at their new born baby fiesta.

Coffee – A Divine Gift or Satan’s Soup

It’s almost five hundred and one years since mesmerizing effects of coffee were first brought to scientific and literary circles and then to ones of religious finally. Regardless of its legitimacy among these circles, there is obvious appreciation for its irresistible taste and aroma with inherent power stimulating effects.Since then, there has been an ever going debate whether to conform its use or not. Almost all of us are now scientifically mindful to its both healing and crumbling effects on mind and body; let’s see what people our brethren say about coffee. Religiously caffeine is most controversial element of natural coffee ingredients and this is caffeine which infuses some kind of ‘mystical and enigmatic’ powers to a man.

Mormons and the Book of Wisdom:

In our contemporary times, Members of Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, commonly referred as Mormons do not follow coffee and tea in their menu. The Book of Wisdom, revealed on James Smith and the one which Mormons follow, says, ‘And again, hot drinks are not for body or the belly’.

‘Hot Drinks’ has been widely interpreted as ‘warm drinks’ or ‘strong drinks’. Followed by their tauten belief in the book, Mormons consider ‘coffee and tea’ as hot drinks and thus avoid any kind of indulgence with them both. Mormons do not represent entire Christian religion. So, Christian all over the world not only drink coffee regularly but they do also love it. This is the reason why we have a lot of coffee shops in every nook and corner of the planet.

Jews and Coffee Culture:

As discussed above, coffee belongs to renaissance when the whole Europe was rising like phoenix from ashes. It was Jews merchants who brought coffee to revered fathers and powerful lords. Having said, coffee is largely favorite drink in Jewish culture ever since they met it.

Jews follow kosher food menu that tells which foods and drinks are clean and consumable. The only controversy spouted was in early 1600 when two rabbis found coffee with altogether different notions. In 1603, an Italian Rabbi Hezekiah da Silva was so much enchanted by coffee that he could not resist saying,’ One cannot attain presence of mind without the aid of coffee. On the other hand, Rabbi Judah LeibNardin of London put coffee in no kosher class, saying it to carry fat meat in it. Much academic discussions have now been conducted about coffee and rabbinic laws, and nothing religiously foul about coffee is found therein. In fact, like rabbis of 17th and 18th centuries, modern Jews do drink coffee for observing intense religious rituals. No wonder, coffee capsules have found much laud among them.

Moslem Sufis and Coffee Ecstasy:

Moslems were the first to find coffee, process it and register its stimulating effects. There are many legendary tales found in their literature relating to coffee and its inviting enchantments. Though ‘strong drinks’ are also prohibited in Islam but they do not drag coffee and tea into those ‘strong drinks’.

Historians tell that in early 1600, moslim scholars also started religious discourses regarding coffee and its religious legitimacy. Moslem Sufis of those times were excited about coffee intake as it turned out to be a magical potion making them ready for self-purgation. But, now there has been nothing controversial about coffee in their religion and Arabians are most addicted to their coffee cups.

Modern Mechanical Man and Coffee

Monotonous, dull and drab routine has become ruling order in our modern life styles. Like gadgets, our routines too have become almost automated and controlled. From rising from our bed and leaving for office to returning home and lighting out sleeping room, everything in our life is terribly predictable. Apparently there is nothing sad with this life, but charms of life surely lose their luster in this life. I often get confused if it’s machines breathing and inhaling oxygen all around.

A Cup Of Coffee Makes Us Human Again:

Now, as never before, we need huge huge energy tanks to cope with all nudging and prodding duties and nothing can be more elevating than a sweet, tasteful and aromatic coffee. Life literally becomes exciting as soon as coffee gushes into veins and reaches out mental chambers, increasing out levels of efficiency and alertness. But getting such a life-driven coffee drink is yet another challenge among others, especially for those whose jobs don’t release them to step out of their office crannies and computer bound tables.

‘Necessity is mother of invention’. Regardless of our jobs and responsibilities, we all share same depression when are faced with decreased energy bars. It’s time to have coffee capsules around and make our own energy drink. Among many other good things about coffee capsules, best thing is their inherent packaging which keeps all coffee content fresh and alive inside. Besides, these coffee capsules can be used with any custom coffee blends, letting coffee lovers to enjoy their favorite tastes.

What Coffee Brand Suits Us?

Natively coffee is grown only in particular geographical belts and outside those narrow belts, growing coffee is quite difficult due to unfavorable climate and topography. Coffee generally is categorized broadly and brand-ly. Broadly generalizing, coffee can be categorized into two distinct groups, first Arabica and other Robusta. By brands, on the other hand, it can be punctuated under many a different titles, mainly Starbucks, Nescafe, Gloria Jean’s, Dunkin’ Donuts etc. But, frankly speaking, all these brands hang too heavy on pockets. Sipping them once in a week or even in a month may not hurt much, but for coffee obsessed folks, these brands entail enormous overhead. So, there must be reliable and economical alternative for these ‘costly java brands’ and that too in the form of coffee capsules so that making coffee out of them may remain joyful experience.

Here are glad tidings for those friends. Now we can buy coffee capsules that are as low in cost as 60% without even compromising any little thing in taste and aroma. Generally, in comparison to famous brands, we tend to underrate these low cost products. Though there is anecdotal data to justify this mental bend, but in case of Nespresso coffee capsules, we would be only be hurting our own opportunity as Nespresso Coffee has become the coffee of common masses, just like you and I. It’s taste and freshness is, without any second thoughts, equally enjoyable and delightful as that of other big names.

Interesting Coffee Tidbits:

Don’t laugh at our coffee obsession, God forbid, sometime you too are gonna become old and week. Greatly nourishing and healing beverage, coffee carries energy stimulants as strong as to make you powerful enough to rule the world, at the least yours. So, every time you are down and out, make sure you have sufficient Nespresso coffee with you. Life is enjoyable with it.

It’s Time to Change Biased Notions about Coffee

Coffee has changed our lifestyles upside down. From wiping out morning sulkiness to entertaining home party guests, we use coffee for all the times every time. It too has changed the way we talk and the way walk. People are often found taking oaths at their coffees.

If you aren’t coffee drinker, you might be wondering what’s so special about this coffee. Of course it’s beatifying and it’s exhilarating. But that’s not all what we’ve got registered with it. There is something more than its taste. It has promising healthful effects for us. Let’s have a peek into coffee’s magical aspects.

It wards off Depression:

As soon as coffee sips are taken, it takes us to the realms of peace and serenity where no tensions can bog down our mood. A latest study conducted by Harvard School of Public Health shows that women drinking caffeinated coffee have found 20% lower risks of running through depression.

Study focuses on caffeinated coffee drinking which means non-caffeinated coffee mightn’t have same effects. Though there are many other sources of caffeine but coffee is accounted for 80% coffee consumption. There is a funny thing about coffee in relation to depression. If bad in taste, coffee becomes biggest pain in the head. Unlike pizzas and parties, it becomes worse when reheated. So, coffee should be fresh when being drunk and what else than coffee capsules can bring in fresh, tasty and stimulating coffee cup.

It Helps Landing on Balanced Weight:

A storm in a tea cup is disturbance but fitness in a coffee cup is really a thing to jump and rejoice. Though drinking coffee can’t turn us into Mr. Olympian Jay Cutler, yet it can help us achieving ideal weight and shape. Drinking an espresso or cappuccino of cápsulas de Nespresso or any coffee capsules after taking meal increases biological metabolism. Caffeine in coffee slows down stomach’s food dumping rate and food moves to duodenum lately, allowing body to maintain better weight. Study tells about post-meal coffee effects, so coffee before meal may not lead to same results. There are many other energy drinks which boast of injecting herculean powers. There might be some traces of truth in their statements yet they can’t compete with coffee in boosting energy levels and maintaining healthy weight.

It’s NOT Addictive At All:

It’s been almost universally referred that coffee, too quickly, becomes an addiction and one cannot dump drinking habit. Well, there are two different things in this statement and both need little discussion. Firstly, drinking coffee can be an addiction but it’s nothing like drugs or anything like that. It has taste which is amazing, it has an aroma which is refreshing and anyone can fall for its taste and varying aroma. And if we call it addiction, let this be addiction.

Now, we there is caffeine which we normally hold for an addiction. It’s true that caffeine has some mystical and strange effects on human mind and body but World Health Organization states that it’s totally wrong to propagate caffeine intake as drug addiction since, unlike drugs, people can reduce or even carry off caffeine from their diet anytime they want. So, coffee wards off depression, it helps maintaining balanced weight, it boosts energy levels and above all cuppers can always control their coffee intake in their diet plans. All this makes coffee all time favorite drink. Once you choose your favorite Nespresso coffee, you will soon be convinced that it’s gift that can be missed while in this life.

More Than 4 Cups of Coffee A Day And You Are Risking Your Health

If you are reading about coffee, I believe it will be fair to assume that you are curious about its effects, or better yet you want to know how much is good for your health. It’s an old adage, excess of everything is bad. This wisdom rings true even for coffee drinking.

P.S. More than 500 mg caffeine per day can lead to unpleasant health problems.
First of all, let’s face it, we drink coffee and when we drink for many reasons. At times we drink coffee because our energy bar is about to end and at other times we drink because we want to mental alertness. Regardless of the reasons involved, drinking too much coffee isn’t perfectly safe. Before getting into details, let’s first know what types of coffee you drink.

Types of Coffee

Well, honestly speaking, brands of coffee are easier to count on than counting all types of coffee because coffee types are as many as cities and people in those cities of the world. Still, with most popular coffees, we can cover major types of coffee.

With coffee, there are various attributes attached such as, bean type and roast intensity, blends and additives etc. Based on these attributes, coffee changes its taste and based on this taste changes its type. You might be wondering about caffeine. Well, though caffeine, because of its tastelessness, has nothing to do with taste, yet its amount in a coffee is a crucial factor while deciding the type of coffee, for example decaffeinated coffee. Anyhow, it’s a long subject and I am saving it for some other time. Let’s know what popular coffee types are around.

Arabica and Robusta:

Nespresso capsules are analogous to modern coffee because almost most of the coffee drinkers around the world use its refillable coffee capsules every time they feel like drinking coffee. These coffee capsules carry a long modern manufacturing process behind them which starts from beans.

Growing coffee is possible only under certain climate conditions and only few of geographical regions hold up the climate suitable for growing coffee. Depending upon its native region, coffee tastes different from others. Arabica and Robusta are two major types of coffee beans. Former that accounts 70% of world coffee production, brings wider range of taste and smell. Before roasting, Arabica beans smell like blueberries and after roasting they may smell fruity and candied. On the other hand, Robusta can taste from neutral to bitter and their raw beans smell like peanuts.

Caffeine Amount in Arabica and Robusta:

We have seen that Arabica and Robusta differ in their physical, chemical and genic formation. But they too differ in their caffeine amount being carried in them. Caffeine in Arabica constitutes 1.2% while in Robusta, caffeine is 2.2%.

P.S. It takes 5 cups of coffee to cross 500 mg caffeine bar. Below this, everything is fine.
Due to its superior taste and flavor, Arabica is considered a high end choice. Earlier people used robusta as a source of instant coffee but ever since coffee capsules have become a commonplace utility, coffee drinkers prefer Arabica again. For caffeine conscious coffee drinkers, Arabica is best because caffeine in these beans is significantly little than robusta. Nespresso compatible coffee capsules are made of pure Arabica beans and that’s yet another reason for worldwide acceptance. If you are caffeine conscious and want to have coffee which is tasteful and aromatic, Nespresso capsules are good way to have all coffee fun with health.

For The Love of Coffee – It Keeps Me Alive In World

A man went to the doctor and said, ‘The moment I take my first sip of coffee, a severe pain catches my right eye. It’s always unbearable’. The doctor smiled and asked, ‘Have you ever tried drinking coffee with your spoon out of it first’? Coffee among nutritionist and doctors is both disparaged and appreciated. Some say, it’s a great drink that guarantees health and power while others call it a death drink. I have never heard anyone dying of coffee drinking, until it was poisoned.

You Too Are Coffee Drinker If You Do This:
Anyways, do you know common traits of coffee drinkers? If following habits aren’t yours’, you are not a coffee drinker.
    1- You are actively active and can’t stop unless there is an earthquake.
    2- You answer your door before the doorbell rings, only to find there is no one out there.
    3- It’s only when they are in your mouth, you realize you didn’t unwrap your candy.
    4- ‘Good to the last drop’, you answer this when being asked, ‘how are you, pal?’
    5- As an IT specialist, you have special reverence for Java language.
    6- You call your wife honey, sugar or cream.
    7- At doctor’s place, word capsules remind you your coffee capsules.
    8- And, at gas station, refill fuel tank reminds you refillable Nespresso capsules.
And Starbucks sounds six bucks to you and, Gloria Jeans as G-bangers and you hold them responsible for your miserable last week of every month. At least, my friends told me so.

Coffee is Always good, if bad, it’s Not Coffee at all:

A man, worried about his failing health, went to the doctor and told him how bad his health is getting. Doctor said, ‘I want you to drink hot water every morning for one month’. Man got surprised and said, ‘You gotta be kidding with me. I’ve been doing that for last 7 years and my wife calls it ‘coffee’.

This joke reminded me my earlier days of drinking coffee when I just could not make a good cup. Before coffee machines and my Nespresso capsules, making coffee was really quite difficult and most of the times we all had to drink hot water in the name of coffee. It often used to hurt me why I always have to go to any coffee shop whenever I feel like drinking good coffee.

Now that we have our coffee machines and coffee capsules with us every time, bad coffee has become a thing of past. A good coffee has have to be economical and not causing much money. These coffee capsules are economical because they can be refilled with any of favorite coffee.

Coffee Fun Facts:

There were no coffee machines and coffee capsules 17th and 18th centuries. There were not even any refillable Nespresso capsules like things, so coffee drinkers had plenty of time to waste before they get their coffee. As a result, both American and French revolutions were planned in coffee shops. Until 1870’s, coffee was roasted in frying pans over a charcoal fire in homes. Finding charcoal has become rather difficult these days, so Starbucks does it in their stores.
