Blue Bottle Coffee - How awesome is it?!!!

I read a lot of positive reviews and decided it was time to try Blue Bottle Coffee.

First time I stopped by, I got a latte. It was amazing...so smooth...no after taste whatsoever. And the best part I didn't need sugar. It was that awesome! If you ever in Rockefeller Center, you must try it! It's not easy to find, so you might just want to ask once you go downstairs to the ice skating ring area.

I wasn't crazy about the service, but the young man knew how to make a great latte. They don't ask your name. I was just standing there and he placed few lattes on the counter that people immediately grabbed. It was very confusing.

I have to say that latte was small and pricey. In my opinion, it is still worth trying. You have to taste it at least once. I was done with it by the time I found an exit. I definitely wanted more.

Second time I stopped by, I tried their coffee blend. All the coffee is made fresh in front of you using the pour over method. I asked the server for recommendation. I wanted something less strong that day. She told me that single origin was milder, but if I add milk, I need to get the blend. I got the blend and let me tell you, that coffee will wake you up and make you jump up and down for a few hours! It was strongest coffee I ever had. It tasted good with no aftertaste, but I wouldn't recommend it late in a day. You are not getting any sleep after that cup!

Third time I went back for Latte. It was a hot day and I added a drop of milk. I am sorry to say it wasn't as good as the first time, but it could have been the extra milk. So if you get a Latte, don't add anything to it!

I read somewhere that the coffee is organic, but I couldn't find proof anywhere and the website doesn't say anything.

I wish they had the sitting area. It's standing room only.

Warts are small benign growths on the skin, caused by a variety of related, slow-acting viruses HPV (human papilloma virus). There are at least sixty known types of HPV.

Zhan Zhuang - Foundation of Internal Martial Arts

I found another good article on my favorite topic. Zhan Zhuang - foundation of Internal Martial Arts by Karel Koskuba Most Internal Martial Arts use some form of standing practice as foundation training (and Taijiquan is no exception in this regard). These standing exercises are usually called Zhan Zhuang (pole standing); sometimes they are called 'Standing Qigong'. The standing exercises are supposed to relax and help you 'accumulate Qi'. I n this article I shall try to outline my theory that should explain, from western perspective, why these exercises are so important both for Internal Martial Arts and Qigong , how this western view correlates with the traditional Qi view and give training advice on how to practice them. In writing this article I have drawn upon my experience from Taijiquan, Yiquan and information from medical postural rehabilitation research and sport...
