The Bloody Mary cocktail, a spicy mix of vodka, lemon and tomato juices, Worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco is said to be first served by Pete Petiot, a barman in Paris, 1921. It was named after Mary I (1553-1558), the queen of England who was a staunch catholic. Her first act on the throne was to repeal the Protestant legislation of her brother, Edward VI. Her goal was the re-establishment of Catholicism in England. Nearly 300 people were burned at the stake for heresy, earning Mary the nickname, "Bloody Mary”.

 |
The New European Driving Cycle or NEDC is the regulated European cycle for defining the specific fuel consumption (in liters per 100 km) and emissions of passenger cars. The announced CO2-emission limits are also defined on the basis of the NEDC. Moreover, a cycle analysis on the basis of the NEDC allows a direct comparison with the fuel consumption and CO2-emissions of current cars as given by the car manufacturers. |  |
