  • Coffee contains caffeine, which acts as a stimulant. For this reason, it is often consumed in the morning and when feeling tired. Students preparing for examinations with late-night cram sessions or code jams frequently use coffee to stay awake.

      This shows that many people drink coffee in the morning to start their day with energy. Whihc is somethimg good. But resourses state that coffee affects your health.
  • A study comparing heavy coffee drinkers (3.5 cups a day) with non-drinkers found that the coffee drinkers were significantly less likely to contract Parkinson's Disease later in life. [7]. Likewise, a second study found an inverse relationship between the amount of coffee regularly drunk and the likelihood of developing Parkinson's Disease

      Accrordind to this it state that coffee is a drink that many people drink but what as a result it gives you a disease. I strongly feel that children should not be drinking coffee becuase that is what manily affectx them with their brain.
  • Coffee consumption is also correlated to a reduced risk of oral, esophageal, and pharyngeal cancer.[17][18] In ovarian cancer, no benefit was found.[19] In the Nurses Health Study, a modest reduction in breast cancer was observed in postmenopausal women only, which was not confirmed in decaffeinated coffee.[20] According to one research, coffee protects from liver cancer.[21]

      As it says here, that coffee can not only be bad for children. But also for adults because it gives cancer to your body. Cancer to women and men. That's why I think that coffee should not be drank every morning only sometimes.

  • Blood pressure Caffeine has previously been implicated in increasing the risk of high blood pressure; however, recent studies have not confirmed any association. In a 12-year study of 155,000 female nurses, large amounts of coffee did not induce a "risky rise in blood pressure".

  • Effects on pregnancy A February 2003 Danish study of 18,478 women linked heavy coffee consumption during pregnancy to significantly increased risk of stillbirths (but no significantly increased risk of infant death in the first year). "The results seem to indicate a threshold effect around four to seven cups per day," the study reported. Those who drank eight or more cups a day (64 U.S. fl oz or 1.89 L) were at 220% increased risk compared with nondrinkers. This study has not yet been repeated, but has caused some doctors to caution against excessive coffee consumption during pregnanc

      This is so true due to the fact that many people think that coffee won'y affect women who are pregnant. But they are wrong cause it actually effects the baby from stillbirths.
  • The study concluded that consumption of coffee is associated with significant elevations in biochemical markers of inflammation. This is a detrimental effect of coffee on the cardiovascular system, which may explain why coffee has so far only been shown to help the heart at levels of four cups (24 fl oz or 600 mL) or fewer per day.[42]

  • Coffee intake may reduce one's risk of diabetes mellitus type 2 by up to half. While this was originally noticed in patients who consumed high amounts (7 cups a day), the relationship was later shown to be linear.[13][14]
  • Coffee can also reduce the incidence of cirrhosis of the liver[15] and has been linked to a reduced risk of hepatocellular carcinoma, a primary liver cancer that usually arises in patients with preexisting cirrhosis.
  • However, coffee can also cause excessively loose bowel movements.
  • Coffee contains the anticancer compound methylpyridinium. This compound is not present in significant amounts in other food materials.
  • Coffee consumption decreased risk of gout in men over age 40. In a large study of over 45,000 men over a 12-year period, the risk for developing gout in men over 40 was inversely proportional with the amount of coffee consumed.[32]
  • Over 1,000 chemicals have been reported in roasted coffee, and 19 are known rodent carcinogens;[33] however, most substances cited as rodent carcinogens occur naturally and should not be assumed to be carcinogenic in humans at exposure levels typically experienced in day-to-day life.
  • A 2007 study by the Baylor College of Medicine indicates that the diterpene molecules cafestol and kahweol, found only in coffee beans, putatively raise levels of low-density lipoprotein or LDL in humans.[36] This increase in LDL levels is an indicator that coffee raises cholesterol. The Baylor study serves to link cafestol and kahweol with higher levels of cholesterol in the body.
  • A Harvard study conducted over the course of 20 years of 128,000 people published in 2006 concluded that there was no evidence to support the claim that coffee consumption itself increases the risk of coronary heart disease.

    "The donut chain conducted a survey that shows that more than half of all Americans will take a nap over this Thanksgiving holiday. But Dunkin', which has begun pushing their coffees in addition to their donuts, says we don't need the nap. That's why their stores are staying open until 2 p.m. on Thursday to provide those looking to stay alert with some ammo." This really made me laugh because DD actually took a survey and is going to the extent where they're going to stay open until 2am selling people coffee.

music personality sound waves emotions

      so true..so true...
  • One obvious suggestion is that our negative emotional response is a price we are willing to pay for the other benefits of engaging with the piece in question, such as (but not limited to) ‘positive’ emotional responses. While this sort of reasoning may play a role, it cannot be a complete solution, since for most pieces that elicit negative responses there are many others that elicit fewer, or less intense negative responses for the same positive payoff. More sophisticated versions of the same suggestion argue for a more intimate link between the negative emotional response and the payoff.

      Tianna EWSIS on 11 Dec 09
       
      So, emotions are neither positive or negative. This goes to show are ignorant people could be on terms such as this one.
  • This is decisive if true, but there is plenty of room to quibble about our ability to test for the right kinds of imaginative activity, the selection of the subjects, and so on. A different kind of objection is that if the persona theory were true, expressive music could not constrain our imaginative activity in such a way as to yield convergent judgments of expressiveness among understanding listeners.

  • The resemblance theorist must give some account of why the funeral march, and not the cup of coffee, is expressive of sadness, and not joy. Levinson claims that the obvious suggestion here is that the funeral march is ‘readily-hearable-as’ an expression of sadness. If this is correct, then the resemblance the music bears to emotional behavior is logically secondary — a cause or ground of its expressivity. The expressivity itself resides in the music's disposition to elicit the imaginative response in us of hearing the music as a literal expression of emotion. As a logical consequence, the imaginative experience prompted must include some agent whose expression the music literally is.

      The type of music that you listen to doesn't change who you really are, alll it changes is how you feel for a period of time.
  • We say that a piece of music is sad in the same sense in which we say that a weeping willow is sad (S. Davies 2006, 183). Such uses are no more metaphorical than a claim that a chair has arms.

Drinking Coffee Chocolate

    I'm learning more about Chocolate right now, and in particular what I'm wondering about is what are different kinds of Chocolates? I was researching this question online, and this blog post caught my attention because it has this picture of Chocolates. The title is called Hot Chocolates: Dark Desires. This source was interesting because it explains you what different kinds of Chocolates there are. And what flavors it is. "Drinking Chocolate: High proportion of premium, bittersweet (60%-75% cacao) bar chocolate; hot water, milk, or cream, or some combination thereof; optional spices; served still, rather than steamed or frothed; can be made in bulk in a hot chocolate machine (which holds the melted chocolate in suspension at perfect temperature) or made-to-order; very thick and creamy, almost like melted bar chocolate." This text explains what this Chocolate has that people drink. The quote that I chose here is basically talking about what people do to make this chocolate. And the percent. It tells you what is made of and the process of doing this. I think this is smart because it's very surprising. It make me wonder if I do Chocolate how would it be. Am I going to make it right with the directions this web explains. I feel that Chocolate is something that is very good to eat and that probably many people like it.

    its crazy to see thta so many places have people that are hungary and has no food to eat it makes me feel very foutnete to be the one with good food everyday and a good life i though that is very cool and great that i do. it makes me feel so much better about my life compare to other people i though that the poepl in afircna and china and other palces are very unfourtnite. speically in afican since there is alot of red palces i hope people go and help them soon enough because it really looks bad from here form thiss map that im looking at in many ways i thought that this really sucks for tyhem becuase they dont even have a poper edacations and other stuff so i though that it was unfair to them also if i was rich i would help them to gain a better life and a better central goverment.

    This map shows the percentage of people affected by hunger. As you can see, Africa is most affected by this world issue. Almost more than half of the countries on the continent is 35% or more affected. There are also places in Europe, Asia, South America, and some places in North America that have hunger. Surprisingly, you don't see anything in the U.S. [I wonder why! I guess it's because we're the fattest nation in the world!]

    I'm learning more about food securities and how we can change the world by helping out. In this map, I can see that poverty exists more in the southern regions of the world. I think that it's kind of ironic when these are the countries that the world rely on. It's where we buy our cotton, our coffee beans, bananas and corn.

    The food hunger crisis is a big concern for me now because its very sad and horrifying to believe that this is actually happening as I type this. I could never imagine what kind life this could be because I have been so lucky and blessed with the life I have. In a way, even though I am just a middle/average class type of person, I feel very rich and spoiled compared to these helpless poor people who are starving around the world.
