CAFFE MACCHIATO [1] Pretty much all those names are Italian words. Espresso coffee started in Italy which is why you often see signs with the words Italian coffee served here. Even though most people think that those words mean the coffee is from Italy. We can explain most of the meanings of the actual words but we think it is more important to explain the differences. Please know that there is no standard. There is no coffee standards book that needs to be followed. No judge walking around coffee shops handing out penalties for not doing it 'right'. It is your coffee business and you can serve the drink however you feel like it. Competitions have rules of course, especially for the espresso and the cappuccino. The two most popular drinks are the cappuccino and the latte. Latte can mean many things though! Cappuccino is usually a mixture of espresso, milk and foam. Some say it's a third of each.

The study of the evolution of emotions dates back to the 19th century. Evolution and natural selection has been applied to the study of human communication, mainly by Charles Darwin in his 1872 work, The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals.[1] Darwin researched the expression of emotions in an effort to support his theory of evolution. He proposed that much like other traits found in animals, emotions also evolved and were adapted over time.[2] His work looked at not only facial expressions in animals and specifically humans, but attempted to point out parallels between behaviors in humans and other animals.  According to modern evolutionary theory, different emotions evolved at different times. Primal emotions, such as fear, are associated with ancient parts of the brain and presumably evolved among our premammal ancestors. Filial emotions, such as a human mother's love for her offspring, seem to have evolved among early mammals. Social emotions, such as guilt and pri...

SIXTH CIRCUIT DISCUSSES SCOPE OF TRAFFIC STOP AND QUESTIONING On May 14, 2018, the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals decided  the United States v. Herrera [i] , in which serves as a review of the law pertaining to questioning of driver’s during traffic stops.  The relevant facts of  Herrera  are as follows: On July 19, 2016, Herrera was traveling eastbound on I-40 when he was pulled over by West Tennessee Drug Task Force Special Agent Shawn Crouch, ostensibly for impeding traffic in the left lane, in violation of Tenn. Code Ann. § 55-8-115(a). Crouch activated his body camera as he initiated the traffic stop. The footage begins with Crouch describing Herrera’s vehicle and the reason for initiating the traffic stop: that four other vehicles had been “piled up” behind Herrera but that he had not moved to the right lane, despite the right lane being clear. Crouch provided this same version of events during the suppression hearing. Herrera’s version of the events...
