Coca-cola

Coca-Cola is a carrbonated soft drink sold in stores, restaurants, and vending machines in more than 200 countries. It is produced by The Coca-Cola Company of Atalanta, Georgia, and is often referred to simply as Coke (a registered trademark of The Coca-Cola Company in the United States since March 27, 1944). Originally intended as a patent medicine when it was invented in the late 19th century by John Pemberton, Coca-Cola was bought out by businessman Asa Griggs Candler, whose marketing tactics led Coke to its dominance of the world soft-drink market throughout the 20th century.
The company produces concentrate, which is then sold to licensed Coca-Cola bottlers throughout the world. The bottlers, who hold territorially exclusive contracts with the company, produce finished product in cans and bottles from the concentrate in combination with filtered water and sweeteners. The bottlers then sell, distribute and merchandise Coca-Cola to retail stores and vending machines. Such bottlers include Coca-Cola Enterprises, which is the largest single Coca-Cola bottler in North America and western Europe. The Coca-Cola Company also sells concentrate for soda fountains to major restaurants and food service distributors.
The Coca-Cola Company has, on occasion, introduced other cola drinks under the Coke brand name. The most common of these is Diet Coke, with others including Caffeine-Free Coca-Cola, Diet Coke Caffeine-Free, Coca-Cola Cherry, Coca-Cola Zero, Coca-Cola Vanilla, and special versions with lemon, lime or coffee.

SUPERSTITIONS MINDS.

Every country has superstitions. Some are universal, but some vary. In Britain for example a black cat is lucky, but in most of Europe it is very unlucky. But, where do all these superstitions come from and what do they mean?Here are some examples.


A ladder leaning against a wall forms the shape of a triangle with the wall and the ground. In Christianity the triangle represents the trinity. People thought it was bad luck to 'break' the perfection of the triangle by walking under the ladder. More rational people think it is dangerous to walk under a ladder, because if you do, something might fall on your head!

The four-leaf clover is a universal symbol of good luck, probably because it is very rare. A lot of people think that four is a lucky number because in Christianity four is the number of the gospels in the Bible.




Farmers think that ladybirds bring good luck because, thousands of years ago, it was a sign of future good weather: good weather helps plants to grow which means people will have more to eat. So if you see a ladybird you might be fortunate and prosperous in the future.
