This is what some people in London told us:
Many people in the city seem to be partial to a cup of tea rather than coffee. Some are concerned with the high caffeine content of coffee.
They state their preference by describing themselves as "a tea person" or "a coffee person".
Did you know?
- Fact
According to the UK Tea Council, it was the marriage of Charles II to Catherine of Braganza that established tea as a fashionable beverage, first at court in Britain and then among the wealthy classes as a whole. She was a Portuguese princess, and a tea addict.
- Language tip
"Wake up and smell the coffee" is an idiom you can use when you want to tell someone to pay attention and do something about a particular serious situation.

This is a good question. When I was teen I used to drink much coffe or capuccino.
But things have changed in my life. I do lots of sport every day and I prefer healthier food and drink in my diet. So I had to give up drinking coffe when I started this lifestyle.

I love both, coffee and tea. I usually start my day with a good mug of arabica coffee, no much strong. In fact, I adore the smeel of coffee in the early morning. It makes me feel happy and remenbering my chidhood when my mammy or my father use to make coffee for the breakfast for us, their children.
However, tea is one of my favorites drinks. I love different types of tea, green, white, red, english... hot or cold. I use to drink tea everyday, mainly in the nigth. It´s works to me as ritual the end of the day.
After that, you can think how do I get to deal withto the caffeine that can contain both beveranges? It is easy to me because ," I pratically I was born drinking this types of beverages. But I have to say one thing with all my respect for the british people: tea with milk is not make for me.

I think coffee is more important for me than a cup of tea. The reason just like every coffee person here, it make me awake from sleepy. A cup of good coffee at morning make the day goes better. And i also making coffee by myself, especially the filter coffee sometimes with milk is the best without sugar. However a cup of tea for me maybe just a normal beverage like soda. But do remember one thing is that do not drink black coffee before an empty stomach.

A warm cup of tea without milk and sugar, this always has been the best drink for me. A piece of sweet chocolate, ham & cheese sandwiches made of baguette, dried-fruit, and many other kinds of food would perfectly matches hot tea with nothing added.

I`m a coffee person. Coffee keeps me awake while working and studying. I don't think coffee is less healthy than tee. Maybe the sugar you add to the coffee isn't very healthy when you take to much. I think the effect of coffee is strong and brief whereas the effect of tee is slight and persistent. Usually I drink a lot of coffee. One in the morning before I go to work. At 10 a clock another one and at least one after lunch.
There are also huge varieties in the quality of coffee. I prefer espresso made in an italian Espresso maker.

Well, I must say it's kind of strange my pleasure for tea since in Argentina it's not the most popular beverage to take either in the morning or afternoon. I would even say that coffee is more common here (not to mention mate).
Here now it is summer, and in spite of the boiling weather I can't help helping myself to a cup of tea while studying or enjoying some series on TV. I prefer to take it with three or sometimes even four spoonfuls of sugar.
I like all kinds of tea. My favourite is one which is imported from England, and it's the most delicious brand I've ever tried! I especially like to try different flavours, even though most of the times they're not made from the real fruit but artificially flavored.
And when it comes to coffee, I prefer it not to be that strong, although the smell is amazing!

Personally, I prefer tea. But only black tea. I cannot bear milk in tea. In Iran people drink black tea with cube of solid Sugar (Ghand). However, drinking tea after meal has not been suggested. Because tea disrupts process of iron absorption in stomach. I also heard that tea is changing the color of teeth gradually. I believe Coffee and Tea cause addictions. I know a lot of people that if do not drink tea, they will get headache. So, drink both of them but with moderation.

I prefer tea because coffee contains a very rich amount of caffein which keeps the carbohydrate in your blood that might cause you in a higher risk of diabetes. Although tea does have some certain amount of caffein in it, you won't addict to any tea drinks. I like tea, but I don't have to drink it every day. In addition, if you drink coffee every day, you won't be sensitive to it unless you consume more amount of caffein than before. Many people say that coffee doesn't wake them up, actually! It's nice to have a cup of coffee once in a while.

As for me, I love coffee. The smell of it makes me crazy! Unfortunately, coffee is very good for our BP, skin, teeth, so I don't drink coffee everyday. But at the weekends when I usually meet my friends at the cafe I always have a cup of coffee. Usually it's cuppucino or latte but I like espresso as well. I love tryin' new flavours such as strawberry or nuts) and really enjoy latte art - pictures baristas create on the top of it. There's nothing better than freshly-made coffee, cozy atmosphere of the cafe and a good chat. Maybe coffee is a kind of tasty reward for me after a hard busy week)))
I've heard that black tea has as much coffeine as coffee, so I drink green tea. My favourite is with lotus and pineapple flavour.

It is true that coffee seems more additive than tea. And tea is much much more popular here in China. Chinese tea is good for health, and it is officially proven by some scientists. However, have you noticed that most of the good food tastes less favorable for our taste buds? Although coffee's increasingly popular these years among the young people, I wonder if we really like it for what it is, or just a symbolic behavior. This is because many think that...with a cup of coffee in your hand makes you look cool...more 'middle class'? No matter what, I guess--any food makes you feel happy is good food.

How to Make Aloe Vera Juice
Aloe Vera juice is said to be beneficial in detoxifying your body and your blood stream. It may be helpful in aiding those with stomach problems such as ulcers or irritable bowel syndrome. Making Aloe Vera juice at home can be ineffective if done improperly. But by following this helpful guide, you can learn how to make Aloe Vera juice safely at home and reap its healthy benefits.
1 - Break off a few leaves from an Aloe Barbadensis Miller plant.
2 - Take a sharp knife and carefully peel the rind from the plant leaves and discard.
3 - Peel the yellow layer just beneath the rind with a sharp knife and discard.
• The yellow layer can also be removed by gently rinsing it in a solution of 1 tbsp. (15ml) of white vinegar and 1 cup (8oz) water.
• Once all the rind and yellow layers have been removed, you should be left with only clear Aloe Vera gel.
4 - Continue peeling the outer rind and removing the yellow layer of each leaf until you have approximately 2 tbsp. (30ml) of clear Aloe Vera gel
5 - Place the 2 tbsp (30ml) of clear Aloe Vera gel into a blender immediately.
6 - Add 1 cup (8oz) of any citrus-based juice, such as orange or grapefruit, to the blender
7 - Blend the juice and gel until it has a smooth appearance.
8 - Pour the blended juice into a glass and enjoy!
The Aloe Barbadensis Miller plant is the only Aloe Vera plant that contains the proper gel for making Aloe Vera juice.
Aloe Vera juice also contains the same antibacterial benefits that Aloe Vera gel is known to provide.
Aloe Vera juice can be taken twice a day for optimal health benefits. You can extract enough gel from your plants to make 2 servings. Just be sure you add the gel to 1 cup (8oz) of citrus juice immediately and refrigerate until you're ready to drink it.
Taken daily, Aloe Vera juice can help provide a greater sense of well-being, increased energy and a healthy body weight.
Making your own homemade Aloe Vera juice can ensure there are no unhealthy additives or preservatives, especially if you're using an Aloe Barbadensis Miller plant that you've grown yourself.
Be sure to use the Aloe Vera gel immediately after extracting it from the leaves. It will oxidize after only a few minutes and begin to lose some of its valuable nutrients.
It is important to remove all of the yellow layer beneath the rind of the Aloe Vera plant. If this layer is ingested, it can cause stomach discomfort and diarrhea.
Things You'll Need
Aloe Barbadensis Miller plant
Sharp knife
1 tbsp. (15ml) of white vinegar (optional)
1 cup (8oz) water (optional)
1 cup (8oz) of any citrus based juice

Wow…I haven't blogged in ages! I have to apologize for my lack of posts in the past week or so. I am back to school in Chicago and have been busy getting my classes figured out and my life back in order. Half marathon training is still under way and going great. I ran 7 miles today and felt awesome. Training has without a doubt increased my appetite. I have been FAMISHED! I've had like 5 meals already today :)
Alright, so I consider myself a "running purist." Why? Because I prefer to run outdoors, devoid of music or noises. Just me, my shoes, my breath, and the sound of my feet rhythmically hitting the pavement. When I started running more often a couple summers ago, I almost always had my iPod strapped to my arm, jamming out my favorite tunes. But sometime last summer, I reached for my music before a run only to discover that my iPod was out of batteries. I was totally bummed and really considered not running, but decided that if I didn't do it then, it wouldn't happen. While I pounded out my miles, I realized how nice it was to not have the noise; to not have someone else's voice in my head. I've never gone back to using my iPod on outdoor runs. Here are ten reasons why you should become a running purist, too!
10. Focus on your breathing. I never realized how little I paid attention to the rhythm of my breathing going in through my nose and out through my mouth. I often suffered from side aches or muscle cramps and realized that they were a direct result from poor breathing practices. When I don't have music in my ears on my runs, I can think a lot more clearly about my breathing techniques.
9. Safety. I tend to run on more secluded dirt roads and random paths when I am at home in Colorado. I love the more intimate feeling that this slight seclusion brings to my runs. I love not having to worry about cars driving by or people watching me. But my mom often gets worried about me out there running alone. And she's right. With music as a distraction, it would be very easy for someone to sneak up without me noticing. Running in silence allows me to stay aware of my surroundings.
8. Friendliness! So now that I've talked about scary people coming up behind you while you run (sorry if I made you paranoid!) ;) I have to discuss that fact that there are MANY friendly runners out there. Sometimes the brightest part of my day and of my run is seeing another runner out there sharing my love for the sport and my love for nature. A smile and a wave, sometimes a quick hello, are great things to share with each other. I never want to miss the chance to talk to someone on a run, and I know that music as a loud distraction might make that happen.
7. Pace control. Often, when a really fast song was pounding in my ears, I matched the pace of my legs to the beat of the music. This would sometimes cause me to wear myself out near the beginning of a run and not have the endurance to finish my run as strongly as I would like. I find that I am more likely to keep a constant pace when I don't have music influencing my steps.
6. Reflection. My outdoor runs have become one of my favorite times to really think about myself and my goals. It's a time when I can focus on what's going on in my life, reflect on problems and discover solutions. It's also a great time for me to think about my running goals. I love knowing while I run that I am doing something good for my heart, lungs and muscles and that it will be well worth it in the end. It keeps me motivated and prompts me to make more goals for myself.
5. Posture. This kind of goes along with consciousness of breath, but focusing on posture while you are running is very important. When I am free of music and other distractions, I can focus on holding my body upright and swinging my arms correctly – not across my body.
4. Companionship. In the past, when people would want to run with me (my mom, my sister, etc) I would feel a little hesitant about agreeing because I was so accustomed to my routine of running to music. However, as I started to run more with my mom this past summer, I realized how much I truly love having a running buddy. Having someone to chat with, to help you with your pace, and to encourage you along the way is awesome. I know that talking to someone is definitely not a "noiseless" environment, so you may miss out on some of the focus and reflection time I spoke of earlier, but I think that it is valuable nonetheless. Sometimes you just need a buddy!
3. Avoiding injury. Okay, maybe I am the only one who struggles with this, but when I am listening to music while I run, I tend to pay WAY less attention to my surroundings. I may miss a crack in the sidewalk, a large rock, or a change in surface and in turn end up falling flat on my face. Once again, just running in silence and focusing on my run is the most effective way that I have found to get a good, safe, and comfortable run.
2. Appreciating nature. Well, I live in Colorado…so if you have to run on the busy streets of New York City, we may not share this advantage…but running outside [especially in the summer] in CO is gorgeous! After doing a couple of silent runs that used to be accompanied with music, I realized that I was looking around a lot more, enjoying nature and experiencing my surroundings in a much deeper way. I observe more of the beauty of the outdoors when I'm focusing on my run and not the beat in my ears.
1. God time. Believe it or not, my runs have unleashed some of my best quiet time with the Lord. While running, I sometimes pray, sing worship songs in my head, or just reflect on some areas in my life that may need His help. I have to admit that I am bad at setting aside quiet time for God on a daily basis, so runs have turned into a perfect time for that. I feel so close to him while I'm enjoying his creation and thanking him for my healthy and equipped body. Running is such a blessing!
During the winter I am forced to run on the treadmill (and I am regrettably currently training for my half on the treadmill – GROSS!) and I have to admit that I almost always listen to music or watch TV while running. Running inside makes it much harder to practice pure running techniques. But I will never again bring music into my outdoor runs. Once a purist, always a purist! ;)
Any thoughts on the matter?
I hope you all are having a LOVELY weekend! I promise I will post again soon.
P.S. I bought this today…
Can't wait to try it! :)

A state regulatory board indicated it plans to reject a plan to build a Muslim-friendly surgery center in the southwest suburbs, the Elgin Courier-News is reporting.
But several board members said they sympathize with a problem they hadn't realized exists—the discomfort that followers of Islam, especially modesty-conscious women, feel about using existing hospitals, urgent care centers and surgery centers in the Chicago area.
And proponents say they have not given up on the project.
Naser Rustom, a Muslim Arab-American, had asked the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board to approve a "certificate of need" for a $5.5 million, 11,000-square-foot "ambulatory surgical treatment center" with five operating rooms in the former Plunkett's Furniture store building adjacent to Orland Square Shopping Center in Orland Park.
Meeting in Bolingbrook Tuesday, the board voted unanimously, with one member absent, that it "intends to reject" the application when it comes back to the board for a final decision in June or August.
Wearing a modesty scarf over her hair, Gihad Ali of the Arab-American Action Network told the board that after her mother was diagnosed with cancer, her mother was appalled that when she went to a hospital for treatments, male medical personnel and other patients could see her in various stages of undress.
She also had to miss many of her normal five-times-a-day prayers because the hospital had no facilities for the ceremonial washing needed, she said.
While the Bible was available in hospital rooms, Ali said, there was no prayer rug. "I should not have to leave my religion at the door in order to receive healthcare services."
Rustom said his Preferred Surgicenter would be "the first healthcare facility in Illinois designed to accommodate the special needs of Muslim-Americans" but would take Muslim and non-Muslim patients alike.
Robin Fina, who would have been manager of the center, said it would have had private post-surgery recovery rooms to safeguard patient modesty, would use more modest hospital gowns and would include washing basins and a prayer room.
She said the center also would try to connect with female surgeons and hire female staff members to treat female patients, avoiding the Muslim ban against men seeing naked women who are not their wives.
It also would try to hire staff members who speak Arabic and the languages spoken by recent immigrants from places like Iran and Pakistan.
Joseph Hylak-Reinholtz, the project's attorney, said two studies concluded that Muslim Americans have worse health than non-Muslims because of reluctance to go to healthcare facilities.
Board member Alan Greiman of Wilmette, who is a judge, asked whether surgeons would stop in mid-surgery when a time of prayer came. Hylak-Reinholtz said they would not.
Greiman also asked whether Islamic "Sharia law" would trump state and federal laws when the staff made decisions.
Hylak-Reinholtz said state and federal law would always prevail. For example, he said, male and female patients would have to use the same waiting room because having "separate but equal" waiting rooms probably would be illegal under American civil rights law.
In any case, the attorney said, different Islamic nations and sects interpret parts of Sharia law differently.
Several board members noted that according to an analysis by the board staff, the Orland Park area already has enough surgery providers to handle all business in that area. It said that would hurt existing business and be an unwise use of healthcare dollars. The staff also concluded that Rustom did not meet all necessary financial standards.
"You would be in a service area that doesn't really need your services," said board member James Burden, a physician from Glenview.
Board member Richard Sewell of Chicago said that with more Muslims than Jews in the Chicago area, market forces eventually will require existing facilities to accommodate Muslim needs or will induce a Muslim-friendly facility to open in some area where there are not so many existing facilities.
Hylak-Reinholtz said Wednesday that his client intends to prove the facility is needed when the issue comes back before the board.

BAGHDAD, Aug. 1 (UPI) — A Kurdish lawmaker in Iraq said he received a letter from the country's prime minister on the size of the Cabinet but lingering, and basic, concerns remain.
A 46-member Cabinet for Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki was approved in December after a lengthy political fight following parliamentary elections in March 2011. A new Cabinet proposed by Maliki is down to 34 seats. Alaa Talibani, a lawmaker with the Kurdish Alliance, told al-Jazeera there were complaints remaining, like the lack of ministers for defense and interior.
"We all received the (Cabinet) letter from Maliki but it was unclear about how the government intends to tackle the pending issues such as lack of security and electricity in Iraq," he was quoted as saying.
The Cabinet decision comes as Iraqi lawmakers consider the status of the U.S. troop presence in the country. U.S. forces are set to leave in December.
In its July report to Congress, the U.S. special inspector general for Iraq reconstruction said Iraq remains "an extraordinarily dangerous place to work."
"It is less safe, in my judgment, than 12 months ago," writes the report's author, Stuart Bowen. "Buttressing this conclusion is the fact that June was the deadliest month for U.S. troops in more than two years."

Alan Wake PC version compared, American Nightmare PC teased
PC gamers have been waiting a long time for their right to play Alan Wake, Remedy's quirky horror-adventure. To compensate for the lengthy delay, the PC version is a "Complete Edition" of sorts, including all sorts of bonuses over the console original. One new PC-exclusive feature makes the game appear dramatically different: a revamped lighting system.
Remedy's Oskari Häkkinen says that the new lighting makes the graphics "even more realistic." But take a look for yourself.
For all the comparison screenshots, click here.
"With the lighting playing such an important part in the story, in the combat mechanics, getting that crystallised fidelity in the lighting and the darkness, the Pacific Northwest looks gorgeous," Häkkinen told Rock, Paper, Shotgun.
Alan Wake will be available for digital download later today, with a retail release to follow next month. However, can PC gamers expect a port of American Nightmare, the upcoming XBLA action-oriented spin-off? "So far it's exclusive," Häkkinen said. "But based on everything I just said about how much PC gaming means to us, you can be guaranteed that we would put as much effort into bringing... well, you can read between the lines."

Why JBoss?
Enterprise Class, Open Standards, Value, Freedom, Flexibility
Red Hat's JBoss EAP 6 is a compelling product. Our interviews with JBoss EAP 6 customers show that the product is clearly a leading application server software platform and able to support complex mission-critical workloads.Source: "How Red Hat's JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6 is Extending Business Value" IDC, 2013
Many middleware vendors promise next-generation openness and flexibility. The problem is they're just retreading proprietary stack concepts. When you choose your next infrastructure, it's important to consider portability, flexibility, interoperability, and true openness.
Go beyond the hype and know what you are really getting with your middleware purchase. Unlike IBM WebSphere with the new Liberty profile - which provides support for web and OSGi applications only* - choosing Red Hat® JBoss® Enterprise Application Platform will allow you to deploy your application wherever you want - on premise, public and private clouds - using the same light, small footprint runtime.
JBoss Enterprise Middleware helps you be more productive, deliver projects to market fast and respond quickly to ever changing business demands.

What differentiates JBoss Middleware from proprietary middleware?
Like JBoss® Enterprise Middleware, traditional proprietary vendors have comprehensive middleware stacks and a global customer base. The difference? The proven quality of our support. According to a Velociti Partners survey, JBoss middleware has beat WebSphere and WebLogic middleware on customer support satisfaction for 6 years.
"... every category that was evaluated resulted in Red Hat rating higher than the competition."*

Simple Subscription Model and Pricing
Our pricing model is simple, fair, and flexible. Forget complex formulas or multipliers. We deliver software and support via a subscription model that puts you in control. With a current subscription, you get the newest versions as soon as they're released. No need to pay for new licenses. So you can upgrade on your schedule, not your vendor's.
JBoss Community - The Open Source Advantage
We build our software in a transparent, collaborative environment. By following a continuum of community projects to enterprise products, it's all done in the open for you to see, test, and even to which you can contribute.
Source code for JBoss Enterprise Middleware is completely open to inspection as you see fit. Should you need to see how a particular piece of functionality is implemented, you can do so. With Oracle WebLogic and IBM WebSphere, you are working in the dark with closed, proprietary software.
Intrigued? Learn how JBoss Enterprise Middleware can give you:
- Enterprise-class features, management, and support at a fraction of the price IBM and Oracle charge.
- World-class developer productivity results by combining the latest standards with open source and JBoss enterprise features to provide you with the tools you need to get to market fast.
- Open choice, maximum flexibility and cloud-ready architecture allow you to develop once and deploy wherever you choose (on-premise, public or private clouds) on your timetable.
- Better value than WebSphere and WebLogic software.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - Green Bay Mayor Jim Schmitt was involved in a car vs. bicycle accident at the end of May.
It was around 9 a.m. when Schmitt was leaving City Hall through an alley and looking to turn onto East Walnut Street.
The bicyclist, who was traveling on the sidewalk, claims Schmitt rolled out in front of him. But Schmitt says he was stopped and waiting to turn, when the bicyclist hit the side of his car.
No citations were issued, but police say the bicyclist was in violation of bicycle laws, because it's illegal for adult riders to travel on sidewalks.
The biker complained of pain in his wrist, foot and ankle and the Mayor's car suffered a little damage.
