Coffee May Boost Female Sex Drive

A study by Southwestern University found that caffeine increased the libido in female rats. Scientist gave the 100 female rats a moderate dose of caffeine right before a mating season. The females rats took less time when returning to males after sex for another season. However, scientists think that this behavior would not be repeated in humans. In humans it could enhance the sexual experience but only among non-habitual consumers. A spokesman for the British Coffee Association said, "humans would have to drink 10 cups of coffee in one go to get the same effect and that is not the normal consumption level". Although this could be truth and thousands of important discoveries have been done thru mammal (rats specially) experiments; it is pretty funny to be compared to a female rat.

Coffee at Mc Donalds??? I'm loving it!!!

I recently discover the wonderful coffee they have at Mc Donalds. I was once rushing to get to class and I needed a coffee so bad that I gave Mc Donalds a shot. I order myself a small coffee just because I doubted on the quality and I did not want to waste any coffee. To my surprise the coffee was delicious, smooth and bold at the same time. Now, every now and then if I am in a rush and I see a Mc Donalds around I won't hesitate to stop and get me a delicioso coffee!!!

NEIGHBORHOOD COFFEE-PICS....

NEIGHBORHOOD COFFEE-BOCA RATON, FL.

Right off Federal highway just a few miles south from Linton Rd, I found Neighborhood Coffee. Another great place to chill, study and chit chat with friends and have some good coffee.

The decoration really stands out. Wooden floors with cool Persian rugs give this coffee house a very interesting feeling. The place is huge; it has at least 5 different areas with comfortable leather and microfiber sofas.

It has a 32 inches plasma TV on the main salon. However, the TV can be a little annoying for people that are trying to read or study; but perfect to catch the news in the morning. Neighborhood Coffee is always packed in the mornings, especially since they open earlier than any coffee shop around.

So, if you are in the neighborhood you can stop by and get a delicious white mocha and a glazed (Krispy Kreme) doughnut for less than five dollars.

GOOD POINTS...

* FREE WIRELESS INTERNET
* PATIO AREA
* PLASMA TV
* LOTS AND LOTS OF SOFAS
* OPEN AT 6:30 A.M.
