This is a phrase often used by managers and human-resources personnel to describe a break in the work day set aside for food and drink. Rather that using the colloquial terms "coffee break" and "lunch", this phrase will often be invoked in an attempt to sound politically correct , educated and sophisticated. The phrase is most often used at work shops, meetings, seminars and focus groups hosted by public-sector organizations such as Universities.

"OK people, we are now going to take 15 minutes for a nutritional break. Please help yourself to coffee and muffins located at the back of the seminar room."

A torture technique that involves tying an accused criminal to a wooden wheel and rolling it on hard, sharp, bumpy surface causing irreversible damage to bones and organs. Sometimes if the person was still alive, an excecutioner would hammer the brain with iron or drop the wheel in a lake. The bodies were often left on display to dismay criminals.
