A smartphone is a mobile phone (also known as cell phones or mobiles) with an advanced mobile operating system that combines features of a personal computer operating system with other features useful for mobile or handheld use. Smartphones typically combine the features of a mobile phone, such as the abilities to place and receive voice calls and create and receive text messages, with those of other popular digital mobile devices like personal digital assistants, such as an event calendar, media player, video games, GPS navigation and digital camera. Smartphones can access the Internet and can run a variety of third-party software components. The display of a smartphone is almost always a touchscreen and sometimes additionally a touch-enabled keyboard, which enables the user to use a virtual keyboard to type words and numbers and press onscreen icons to activate “app” features. In 1999, a Japanese firm released the first smartphones to achieve mass adoption within a country. Smartphones became widespread in the late 2000s. In the third quarter of 2012, one billion smartphones were in use worldwide. Global smartphone sales surpassed the sales figures for regular cell phones in early 2013.

Amazingly, the historical development of tennis dates back several thousands of years. The game was developed from a 12th century French handball game called “Paume” (palm) in which a ball was struck with the hand. After some time “Paume” evolved into real tennis and the players started using racquets.The game was first created by European monks for entertainment roles during ceremonial occasions. At first, the ball was hit with hands. Later, the leather glove came into existence. This leather glove was replaced with an adaptive handle for effective hitting and serving of the ball. That was a birth of tennis racquet. Tennis balls also underwent frequent modifications. First tennis ball was from wood. Then it was filled with cellulose material to give way to a bouncier. The game became very popular when it was adopted by a royal family in France in the 13th century. Louis X of France was a keen player of the game and became notable as the first person to construct indoor tennis courts in the modern style. Louis was unhappy with playing tennis outdoors and accordingly had indoor courts made in Paris around the end of the 13th century. In due course this design spread across royal palaces all over Europe. In June 1316 at Vincennes, following a particularly exhausting game, Louis drank a large quantity of cooled wine and subsequently died of either pneumonia or pleurisy, although there was also suspicion of poisoning.

A coffee seed, commonly called coffee bean, is a seed of the coffee plant, and is the sorurce for coffee. It is the pit inside the red or purple fruit often referred to as a cherry. Even though the coffee beans are seeds, they are referred to as “beans” because of their resemblance to true beans. A small percentage of cherries contain a single seed, instead of the usual two. This is called a “pea berry”. The pea berry occurs only between 10 and 15% of the time, and it is a fairly common (yet scientifically unproven) belief that they have more flavour than normal coffee beans. The two most economically important varieties of coffee plant are the Arabica and the Robusta; 75–80% of the coffee produced worldwide is Arabica and 20% is Robusta. Arabica beans consist of 0.8–1.4% caffeine and Robusta beans consist of 1.7–4% caffeine. As coffee is one of the world’s most widely consumed beverages, coffee beans are a major cash crop and an important export product. The United States imports more coffee than any other nation and the value of coffee imported exceeded $8 billion. As of 2015, Americans consumed approximately 400 million cups of coffee per day, making the United States the leading consumer of coffee in the world.
