	What does Deus Ex Machina Mean?
		The phrase deus ex machina is a Latin theatrical term meaning "god from a machine", although many sources translate machina as the crane used to lower actors to the stage.
		Deus ex machina is the introduction of a contrived character, often a god or goddess, into a play in order to miraculously rescue the hero or resolve a complicated plotline.
		Over time, the deus ex machina plot device expanded to include any number of characters suddenly introduced for the sole purpose of resolving a complicated plotline.

		As the popularity of motorcycles and scooters spreads to well-to-do city-dwellers, there’s been an increase in urban “motorcycle boutiques” (Vespa and Harley each sport a flashy upscale retail location in Chicago) where the machines are a distant afterthought to a line of expensive clothing and accessories.
		Deus Ex Machina in Camperdown, Australia has taken this trend a step farther by selling a variety of late-model “retro” bikes and dirtbikes in a similar environment.
		While Vespa and Harley’s “shoppes” seem like a cheap cash-in, Deus comes off as a more personal, heartfelt venture, though that might just be the utterly amazing graphic design talking.
