A collection of Brand Car Logos and their meanings (II)
PEUGEOT
PRUGEOT LOGO
Peugeot is a major French car brand, part of PSA Peugeot Citroën, the second largest carmaker in Europe. Peugeot’s roots go back to 19th-century coffee mill and bicycle manufacturing. The company’s entry into the vehicle market was by means of crinoline dresses, which used steel rods, leading to umbrella frames, saw blades, wire wheels, and ultimately bicycles. The trademark of Peugeot is a mighty lion, which is the symbol of the region Franche-Comté, where the company is. The lion represents the excellence of their saws in three aspects: saw tooth is as enduring as lion’s tooth; saw blades is as elastic as lion’s backbone; the performance of the saw is as invincible as that of lion. In 1890, when the first Peugeot motor was out on the market, the company decided to carry on the “lion” trademark to signify its high quality.
ASTONMARTIN
ASTON-MARTIN LOGO
Aston Martin Lagonda Limited is a British manufacturer of luxury sports cars, based in Gaydon, Warwickshire. The company name is derived from the name of one of the company’s founders, Lionel Martin, and from the Aston Hill speed hillclimb near Aston Clinton in Buckinghamshire. The logo of Aston Martin is a flying roc with wings wide spread, on each of which writes ASTON and MARTIN, indicating that the company has the velocity and ambition of a roc.
Bentley
BENTLEY LOGO
Bentley Motors Limited is a British manufacturer of automobiles founded on 18 January 1919 by Walter Owen Bentley (known as W.O. Bentley or just “W.O.”). Mr. Bentley had been previously known for his range of rotary aero-engines in World War I, the most famous being the Bentley BR1 as used in later versions of the Sopwith Camel. Since 1998, the company has been owned by the Volkswagen Group of Germany. Bentley’s winged and flying B logo has been used since the first Bentley motor made its appearance.
LINCOLN
LINCOLN LOGO
Lincoln is the luxury brand of Ford Motor Company. Founded in 1917 by Henry M. Leland and acquired by Ford in 1922, Lincoln has manufactured vehicles since the 1920s. Leland named the brand after his longtime hero Abraham Lincoln. In 1927, Lincoln adopted the greyhound as their emblem, which was later replaced with diamond that is currently in use.
JAGUAR
JAGUAR LOGO
Jaguar Cars Ltd., better known simply as Jaguar (pronounced) is a manufacturer of luxury and executive motor cars, headquartered in Coventry, England, and now operated as part of the Jaguar Land Rover business owned by Tata Motors of India. Jaguar was founded as the Swallow Sidecar Company by Sir William Lyons in 1922, originally making motorcycle sidecars before switching to passenger cars. The name was changed to Jaguar after World War II due to the unfavourable connotations of the SS initials. Jaguar cars are designed in an engineering centre at their headquarters in Coventry, England and are manufactured in one of three English Jaguar plants; Castle Bromwich in Birmingham, Halewood near Liverpool and Gaydon in Oxfordshire. The Jaguar logo is a Jaguar leaping across the company name. The leaping Jaguart is possibly built to represent the speed, power and quickness of the car. The Jaguar emblem is also placed on the front of the car.
CHEVROLET
CHEVROLET LOGO
Chevrolet (of Swiss origin) (also known as Chevy) is a brand produced by General Motors Company. It is the top selling GM marque, with “Chevrolet” or “Chevy” being at times synonymous with GM. Chevrolet offers 18 vehicles and many different enhanced versions in its home market. The vehicles range from subcompact cars to medium duty commercial trucks. Its number one seller in the United States is the Silverado pickup. The straightforward Chevy logo may seem mundane to the spectator at the first glance but it indeed holds huge significance in the corporate world. A brilliant simple cross in customary metallic colors representing the automobile industry defines the Chevy logo completely. Being a very simple yet elegant trademark, the Chevy logo design compels an everlasting impact on the human mind.
LEXUS
LEXUS LOGO
Lexus is the luxury vehicle division of Japanese automaker Toyota Motor Corporation. The Lexus logo was developed by Molly Designs and Hunter Communications. The final design for the Lexus logo featured a stylized “L” within an oval, and according to Toyota, was rendered using a precise mathematical formula. The first teaser ads featuring the Lexus name and logo, designed by Team One, appeared at the Chicago, Los Angeles, and New York auto shows in 1988.
LAMBORGHINI
LAMBORGHINI LOGO
Automobili Lamborghini S.p.A., commonly referred to as Lamborghini, is an Italian sports car manufacturer, based in the small village of Sant’Agata Bolognese. Founded by businessman and tractor factory owner Ferruccio Lamborghini in 1963, the company has achieved widespread recognition for sleek, exotic designs, and its cars have become symbols of performance and wealth. The Lamborghini Charging Bull Logo stands for the founder’s, Ferruccio Lamborghini, zodiacal sign (Taurus). Most of the company’s cars have been named after famous fighting bulls (oddly most have been Spanish bulls not Italian). Interestingly it is said that the choice of an animal and the colors used on the logo (gold on a black background, and a charging bull) are suspiciously similar to the Ferrari logo (a black horse on a yellow background). It is believed that this was no accident on the part of Lamborghini, who had a long standing (and not always friendly) rivalry with Ferrari.
CADILLAC
CADILLAC LOGO
Cadillac is a luxury vehicle marque owned by General Motors Company. Cadillac vehicles are sold in over 50 countries and territories, but mainly in North America. The Couronne (Crown)-The crown symbolizes the six ancient counts of France. Each tip is topped with a pearl, a symbol of descendancy from the royal counts of Tolouse. The Shield-In heraldry, a shield represents the origins of a noble family. Its shape is of no consequence, and it pertains to those shield shapes used during the Crusades. The original Cadillac shield though, is round. The First and Fourth Quarterings-They display the arms de la Mothe. The color- black against gold- represents wisdom and riches. The “fess” or lateral black bar, represents an award for Crusader service. The Second and Third Quarterings-The red band symbolizes prowess and boldness in action. The silver represents purity, charity, virtue, and plenty. The blue represents knightly valor. The emblem was adopted for use on Cadillac cars in 1905. It was registered as a trademark on August 7, 1906.
ALFAROMEO
ALFA-ROEMO LOGO
Alfa Romeo Automobiles S.p.A. is an Italian automaker founded on June 24, 1910 in Milan. The logo is split in half and contains the emblems of Alfa’s hometown Milan and the one of the great Milanese ‘Visconti’ family. On the left is the red cross on a white background, which refers back to the days of the First Crusade, when many Milanese soldiers were amongst the Lombards who followed Giovanni of Rho to the Holy Land. The red cross was their symbol, whilst the white background symbolised the white shirts they were forced to wear under their armour to protect them from the fierce Palestinian sun. On the right of the badge are the arms of the Visconti family, which later became recognised as those of the City of Milan. Some says the serpent represents the snakes that the Lombards used to wear round their necks in a little case as a lucky charm, – or the dragon which, at the start of the fifth century, plagued Milan and was finally killed by Uberto, Squire of Angera, and founder of the Visconti family, – or it could be the symbol of Ottone Visconti who fought a victorious duel with the Saracen leader, Voluce, during the First Crusade. The city of Milan, however, claims that the serpent has nothing to do with the Visconti family.
VOLVO
VOLVO LOGO
The Volvo Group is a Swedish supplier of commercial vehicles such as trucks, buses and construction equipment, drive systems for marine and industrial applications, aerospace components and financial services. Volvo was founded on 14 April 1927 in the city of Gothenburg, as a spin-off from the roller ball bearing maker SKF. The name Volvo means “I roll” in Latin (or “I drive” in modern-day English, appropriate for cars as well as bearings). The word is derived from the Latin word “volvere” which means “to roll”. The logo for Volvo is the ancient symbol of Iron, which is a circle with an arrow pointed diagonally upwards to the right. The iron badge on the car was supposed to take up this symbolism and create associations with the honoured traditions of the Swedish iron industry: steel and strength with properties such as safety, quality and durability. Today, the iron logo also stands for a brand that radiates modern and exciting design and has a strong emotive connection with the customers.
MAZDA
MAZDA LOGO
Mazda Motor Corporation is a Japanese automotive manufacturer based in Hiroshima, Japan. t is said that Mazda coincides with the anglicized pronunciation of the founder’s name, Jujiro Matsuda, who was interested in spirituality, and chose to rename the firm in honor of both his family and Zoroastrianism. The word Mazda derives from Ahura Mazda, the Avestan language name for a divinity exalted by the ancient Iranian prophet Zoroaster, as the source of wisdom, intelligence and harmony. The current logo attempts to capture the spirit of Mazda, the stylised “M” evokes an image of wings in flight and symbolises the Mazda’s flight toward the future. The “V” in the centre of the “M” spreads out like an opening fan, representing the creativity, vitality, flexibility and passion that is Mazda. The symbol as a whole expresses the sharp, solid feeling that Mazda will be seeking in all of its products. The dynamic circle symbolizes our readiness to spread our wings as we enter the 21st century.
PONTIAC
PONTIAC LOGO
Pontiac is a brand of automobiles first produced in 1926, and sold in the United States, Canada and Mexico by General Motors (GM), marketed as an “athletic” brand specializing in mainstream performance vehicles. The original logo was that of an American Indian headdress, which was used as a logo until 1956. The American Indian headdress is obviously connected to Chief Pontiac referenced earlier. This was updated to the currently used American Indian red arrowhead design for 1957. The arrowhead logo is also known as the Dart. The logo has a distinctive Red and a silver star in the middle. I am not sure what the significance of the star is but a lot of the Native American art contains elements of nature such as the sun, moon and stars.

Are you a coffee drinker who prefers to have it easy? Would you like to find an easier way to drink coffee and not wait too much in long lines? There is definitely a way to do so and you do not even have to leave home. Many people think that it is more convenient to get coffee from a coffee establishment. Not many know that this is far more costly and can take too much time. With that Keurig has designed a special and fast way of making coffee: the use of k-cups.
K-cups are plastic cups with an exact amount of coffee beans inside them. There are also k-cups which can be bought to make tea and cocoa products. These are sealed with a plastic foil lid and can be bought at supermarkets and other coffee stores in under a dollar. It is definitely cheaper than buying a whole cup of coffee. The only thing you will need to have is a Keurig coffee maker. Here, you need to insert the coffee k-cup and it will brew by itself.
The machine does all the work for you. It automatically sets the water to its correct temperature and uses pressure to cut through the sealed lid of the k-cup. In a matter of seconds to a minute, you coffee will be prepared with all the goodness of coffee taste and aroma. The best part about Keurig is that it had acquired numerous coffee brands such as Tully’s and Green Mountain Coffee Roasters. This gives people the access to get organic and gourmet coffee flavors from across the globe without the need to travel to faraway places.
So, get your own Keurig coffee maker now. Getting one is definitely a great investment. Rest assured that this machine is very durable and at the same time reliable for any coffee need. No coffee owner should go without a Keurig coffee maker and k-cups.

What is the best automatic one button coffee machine?
I am looking to buy a coffee machine that can also dispense cappucino, espresso, and other speciality drinks by pressing one button. Any suggestions?
it really depends on how much you want to spend, if you want a god 1 button auto machine, it will cost a fair amount, but coffee is worth it, gaggia is usually going to be a pretty safe bet
i use a no button machine, its a gaggia g106, which is one of those old fashioned lever operated machines, really nice coffe, but definately now worth it if you aren’t interested in spending weeks or months learning the finer points

Illy Coffee Is Rather Like A Fine Wine
Illy Coffee
Illy coffee was founded in 1933 by Francesco Illy. Today, Illy markets a single blend of remarkable coffee made of 100% Arabica beans from nine different growing regions in Africa, India, South America and Central America. It is this blend of beans from different growing conditions that gives Illy its unique taste.
Illy thinks of coffee rather like a fine wine… they describe the tasting experience as something that not only affects the palate, but the entire person through all the senses. They strive to create a consistent coffee with every cup, offering richness, a mixture of flavors including fruity and flowery, with hints of caramel, chocolate, almond and honey blending together to create an unforgettable cup of coffee.
Illy coffee is best experienced as espresso. Illy believes that espresso is the quintessential method for true coffee lovers to enjoy coffee. The Illy espresso blend features notes of caramel and chocolate, toast and honey. It is velvety and sweet, setting the stage for the pleasant bitter tingle that is soon to follow. An authentic Italian coffee, Illy’s espresso awakens the spirit, caresses the senses, and opens the doors of the mind. Their espresso is available in a fine grind, a medium grind, as whole bean, or in moka, if you use a moka pot for preparation. They also make ESE (easy serving espresso) in pods, to use in any ESE-compatible coffee maker. Illy’s newest coffee innovation is the Hyper Espresso Capsules, to be used in the Francis Francis Hyper Espresso Machine. Any of these can be used to make creamy cappuccinos as well.
For perfectly brewed coffee every time, Illy recommends its medium grind for use in automatic drip coffee machines. Illy makes their medium grind available in a medium roast for those who prefer a smooth flavor with notes of caramel and chocolate; for those who prefer a more robust flavor, they offer a dark roast with deep notes of cocoa and hints of creamy caramel.
For those who like using moka pots, Illy offers a special coarse grind. For those who don’t know what a moka pot is, think of a better designed percolator. It is used on the stove top, cold water is put in the bottom, coffee is put in a filter, the lid is put on, and as the water heats, and it rises through the filter. When the coffee begins to sputter, it is done.
Illy coffee can also be brewed using a flip pot, a French press, or in the thick Turkish style.
Illy coffee makers are state of the art, too. They offer the Francis Francis X1 Espresso Machine, the Hyper Espresso System for the Hyper Espresso Capsules, and the Francis Francis Trio, which work with the ESEs. All are true works of art, designed by architect Luca Trazzi.
And finally, to finish off the perfect coffee experience, Illy began commissioning cups from Italian designer Matteo Thun in 1990.The first edition was available to the public in 1992. Illy offers these cups in signed limited editions, treating the cup as canvas. Each edition is decorated by a different artist.

Best Hangover Cure Recipes
What’s the best hangover cure? Drinking moderately in the first place could be the answer but when moderation is not possible or not an option, getting hangover cures that work are the next best thing.
Here are some home made recipes for hangover cures.
Fruit juice contains fructose, a form of sugar that helps the body burn alcohol faster that helps accelerate the removal of remaining alcohol in your body. So drinking a large glass of apple juice or tomato juice flushes out alcohol from your body thus helping you recover from a hangover faster. Orange juice is more acidic and if you have a weak stomach, it’s best to stick to non-acidic juices.
In addition, fruit juices contain high levels of vitamins and nutrients that help to replace the body’s energy and expel alcohol toxins from the body faster.
Honey is a concentrated form of fructose, so eating crackers and honey helps too. Another way to take honey is to have it with lemon and hot water. This is the classic drink for hangover cure. Not only does a hot honey lemon drink replenishes the body’s lost fluids, it also prevents the rapid change in alcohol levels that causes headaches.
Alcohol dehydrates the body, so drinking lots of water before going to sleep and after waking in the morning helps relieve the discomfort that alcohol dehydration causes. Replenish the water supply in your body.
Eggs contain cysteine, a substance that breaks down acetaldehyde, the toxin that causes hangovers. The liver contains glutathione that is easily depleted by acetaldehyde and eating eggs helps to absorb this toxin. Additionally, eggs give you energy in the morning.
Replenishing potassium lost through alcohol’s diuretic effect is a recommended hangover cure. Broth made from bouillon cubes or any home made soup broth helps replace the salt and potassium your body loses when you drink. Bananas too, contain high levels of potassium. You can also have a kiwi fruit juice or a sports drink.
Usually used as a remedy for seasickness, ginger works for hangovers too since having a hangover is rather similar to being seasick. If you are able, brew some ginger tea by cutting about 10 slices of fresh ginger and brew it with 4 cups of water to boil for 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, drain and add half a cup of honey, juice of half a lemon and juice of an orange to the ginger tea for a delicious hangover cure.
So these are some effective hangover cures you can try but there are many more recipes for hangovers, some of which are more myth than fact. Some will actually give you temporary hangover relief before the hangover gets worse.
These include drinking more alcohol in the morning, eating burnt toast and drinking black coffee.
Drinking more alcohol would burden your body with even more alcohol toxins when your body is already struggling to get rid of the toxins from the night before. Burnt toast is supposed to act as a carbon filter that absorbs toxins since carbon is used to treat alcohol poisoning. Carbon on burnt toast is not the same as the carbon used to treat alcohol poisoning. Coffee like alcohol is also a diuretic and causes the body to lose even more water and become even more dehydrated.
At the end of the day, moderation in drinking is still key for reducing hangover symptoms since hangover cures may not work for some people.

Bulk Coffee Saves Money!
Bulk Coffee Programs
A bulk coffee program is a plan that will ship you a predetermined amount of coffee each month. The amounts vary, so make sure you find a plan which suits your needs. Start with ordering a small amount at first, to make sure you don’t end up with more coffee that you can consume before it starts to go stale. Most of the plans offer a house blend brand of coffee which may be imported from Sumatra, Kenya, Central America or South America.
Check out Online Options for Bulk Coffee
If you buy bulk coffee online, you should be able to find it at a discount. This may seem great at first, but don’t forget to factor in the cost of shipping. The shipping cost may be sizable since bulk coffee ships in bags weighing up to 25 pounds. One way to cut down on shipping costs is to find a local distributor. Not only will save you money, but it can also save you delivery time. The last thing you want to do is to end up paying high overnight shipping costs for large amounts of bulk coffee.
Tips for Brewing Bulk Coffee
If you do own a restaurant, coffee house, or large business and are making a lot of coffee, be sure to use a commercial grade coffee machine for brewing your bulk coffee. The same coffee maker you use at home cannot make coffee fast enough and it can’t get the water hot enough for optimal brewing. Really high water temperature is one of the secrets to the great coffee served in your favorite coffee house.
If you don’t consume a lot of coffee in a short amount of time, purchasing bulk coffee may not be your best option. The best cup of coffee comes from fresh beans, bought within the last month. Even though buying bulk coffee will save you money, you’ll be disappointed in the taste of your coffee if it sits on your shelf much longer than 30 days.

Check The Rating Of Coffee Machine Before Buying
These days an essential part of life is coffee. Anything that becomes increasingly essential can be the cause of headache when you do not have it right or do not have it at all. For java that definitely is true. A day can become flavorless if the coffee is not of good taste and a gray day is a day with no coffee. This leads to the fact that it is essential to purchase the correct kind of coffee maker. By buying the coffee maker with thermal quality you can relieve yourself from any headache. You must check the thermal coffee makers ratings before finally purchasing one. The market study helps to know the price range and qualities of the thermal coffee maker.
In the market many other types of brewing machines are still available. Some of them are the hand press machines, old-fashioned drip machines and still older old-fashioned French presses. Shooting hot water all the way through the coffee pads just like the coffee machines in Europe, are the machines for pod coffee that serve individuals which are latest in the market. An espresso maker is something coffee connoisseurs can even now stick to. So, if you are unsure about your purchase, it is important to get the ratings on these as well as the thermal coffee machines.
The thermal coffee makers without any such fight may win you over with its ratings. The thermal coffee makers incase you did not know stay hot for hours. Preserving your coffee flavor this whole time without burning it is their best feature. For an office or large family kitchen settings a similarly sized drip machine faces tough competition from several thermal coffee makers, which have big dual carafes worth eight to ten cups. Best quality brushed stainless steel is used generally to make these carafes. To be operated independently or simultaneously some have dual wall thermal systems. To keep the coffee for hours at the correct taste and temperature these dual wall carafes are a help.
Filters with permanent platinum or gold, auto shut off, filter baskets that can be swung away and a timer that is digitally programmable for 24 hours are the other features the thermal coffee makers top. The system for you to remove the carafe, without spilling any during brewing if you cannot wait, is present in fine thermal coffee makers.
