Coffee Futures Trading

Coffee is the world's most popular non-alcoholic beverage and is considered to be the globe's most important internationally traded commodity. Coffee futures trading is therefore potentially very lucrative. The Commodity Exchange Center in New York (CSCE) is the prime market for trading coffee, cocoa and sugar futures and options. It has been in operation since 1993. The CSCE is not responsible for the set price of coffee trades. It supplies a tangible venue where traders make options and futures transactions under the Exchange’s regulations. Coffee Futures Trading - Read Full Story

Django Reinhardt - Guide to the World's Best Guitarists

Guitar Legend Django Reinhardt

Guitars and gypsies go hand in hand... The original rock'n'roll drifter, he travelled around France with gypsies as a young man, learning to play guitar—as well as banjo—from them. Musicians as diverse as Willie Nelson and Tony Iommi have been influenced by him. But the most amazing thing about Django Reinhardt is that he did it all minus two fingers on the left hand—and it wasn't cause he was playing guitar left-handed, either.

Duane Allman - Guide to the World's Best Guitarists

The thing about great musicians from the 60's was they were always dying. Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Brian Jones from the Rolling Stones, Jim Morrison, Keith Moon…and, unfortunately, the guitarist whose nickname was 'Skydog,' also known as Duane Allman.

But before all of that, Allman was a noted session musician who was rapidly becoming famous for his work on slide guitar and on a little album called Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs with none other than Eric Clapton. Duane Allman - Guide to the World's Best Guitarists - Read Full Story

History Of The Mille Miglia

The first Italian Grand Prix took place in 1921 in Brescia. But a new course was built in 1922 at Monza, and for the most part has held the race ever since. When Brescia lost the Grand Prix to Monza, Brescians Aymo Maggi and Franco Mazzi decided to give a bit 'Take that!' to the world of racing and prove that Brescia wouldn't take the loss lying down.

With some wealthy friends and associates, they established the race to end all races, the Mille Miglia, taking racers 1000 Miles along a figure eight course through Italy, going from Brescia to Rome and back. History Of The Mille Miglia - Read Full Story

The Mille Miglia Of Today

For the uninitiated, Mille Miglia is an Italian name which translates to Thousand Miles, and is, as one might guess, a thousand mile endurance race across Italy.

While the first Mille Miglia races ran from 1927 to 1957, today's races really began in 1982, and, in honor of the original races, the drivers always compete in cars from the 1927 to 1957 era.

This is part of a series of hubs on the Mille Miglia. I recently took my Father - a classic car buff all his life (that's him on the right in his 2009 MM cap) to watch the 2009 race, for the trip of a lifetime. Only problem is, we're now bitten by the most beautiful car race in the world, and are already tentatively planning next year's trip! The Mille Miglia Of Today - Read Full Story
