Narconon Drug Rehab Program - Overview
Has your loved one tried drug rehabilitation in 12 step programs or other rehab centers, only to fail? Unfortunately, for many families, alcohol and drug addiction treatment have been only marginally successful. Too many times, families and friends of drug addicts and alcoholics have seen their loved ones go through programs again and again. Finally, there is something different.
Our comprehensive rehab program does not adhere to the traditional group therapy or therapist approach. In fact, the 1st third of our drug rehabilitation program concentrates on cleaning the body of its unwanted toxins (drugs, alcohol, medication, pesticides). This is a physical cleanup program and may take more than 30 days. The procedure includes spending up to 4 1/2 hours per day in a specially designed sauna, which induces sweating without the unwanted dizziness due to lack of air inherent to some saunas. This step of our natural detox program is closely supervised by our trained staff to ensure the recovering addicts get plenty of water, salts, potassium and other supplements to replenish the amounts used while sweating in the sauna.
After the recovering addicts have cleaned their body from drug residues and toxins, they are ready to deal with the mental issues that contributed to becoming addicts in the firts place.
In the last part of the Narconon program, the individuals learn life skills and tools that will enable them to live drug-free.

Hamburg / Munich, September 24th, 2009 – Through a landmark process initiated by Beiersdorf, Interbrand has unified the design of the various NIVEA brand logos.
Over the years, Beiersdorf's NIVEA brand has successfully established itself in new segments and areas of application. On Interbrand's 2009 Best Global Brands ranking, just released September 18, NIVEA is one of the few German brands whose value increased in 2009. The brand has grown over time and has been accompanied by a variety of platform and range concepts, resulting in a large number of different NIVEA logos.
Two of the logos designed by Interbrand (NIVEA and NIVEA for MEN) will be gradually rolled out over the entire portfolio. This step will not only harmonize the many NIVEA sub-brands, but will also represent a tangible visual consolidation of the NIVEA brand at POSs worldwide.
"As a global personal care brand, NIVEA needs a compelling image that is clear, simple, and effective," explains Franziska Schmiedebach, Head of Global Marketing at NIVEA. "NIVEA and NIVEA for Men are strong brands and require strong, clear identifiers in order to remain firmly established in consumers' minds in future. The new logo reflects our claims: modernity, the brand's cosmetic values, and innovation."
The traditional NIVEA lettering that is familiar from tins of NIVEA Creme has been retained as part of an evolutionary approach that has preserved the logo's concise typography. This lettering forms the visual common denominator for the two new NIVEA logos. Nevertheless, the basic design of the NIVEA and NIVEA for Men logos is clearly aligned with the preferences of their target groups: the universal NIVEA logo, which is aimed at a predominantly female clientele, is harmoniously and elegantly curved and features the subtle use of silver, while the strikingly accentuated NIVEA for Men logo reflects masculine precision and modernity both verbally and visually.
About Interbrand
Interbrand began in 1974 when the world still thought of brands as just another word for logo. We have changed the dialogue, redefined the meaning of brand management and continue to lead the debate on understanding brands as valuable business assets.
Interbrand now has nearly 40 offices and is the world's largest brand consultancy. Interbrand's practice brings together a diverse range of insightful thinkers making the business both rigorously analytical and highly creative. Offering more people, more disciplines, and more knowledge tailored to clients Interbrand's work goes deeper and further. Interbrand creates and manages brand value by making the brand central to the business's strategic aims.
Interbrand is not interested in simply being the world's biggest brand consultancy. Interbrand wants to be the most valued.

This particular genealogist lived in an area I was researching. I had been stuck, unable to go further on the ancestral line I was exploring, and I paused to read what the genealogist offered. For just a small amount of money for a few hours of research at the local library and courthouse, the genealogist would go where many out-of-state researchers could not. He would conduct research on your ancestor and provide copies of records found.
The offer was inviting and the cost was minimal. I gave it some consideration, then contemplated the statement at the end: "I have researched for many years on my own genealogy and have gone as far as I can go. Now I can help you with your research."
After years of research, my motivation for searching for ancestors seems to 'ebb and flow.' And lately, my 'ebb' has been lasting longer than my 'flow.' Feeling uninspired, I have found myself gravitating to other ways to spend my free time. Suddenly realizing my 'blah' state of mind, I forced myself to review my family tree on Ancestry.com.
Focusing on an ancestor, Abraham Hobbs b. 1813 in Meadville, Pennsylvania, I have had no clues to his parental lineage. Death records of Abraham have not been available and he was married on the 1850 US Census. But knowing he was likely born in the same village where he lived most of his life, I place the Hobbs surname in the search engine for 1810, 1820 and 1830. And what rolled out was an interesting name: Samuel Hobbs b. 1779.
A spark flittered up my spine as I stared at Samuel Hobbs' name. Placing his name in the search engine, records flowed but no connection to my ancestor, Abraham.
Frantically bouncing from website to website, a beautiful site for the Greendale Cemetery of Meadville, Pennsylvania popped up. This cemetery has been digitalizing all of their records of interments and it is the oldest cemetery for the village of Meadville.
"What the heck," I thought, putting the Hobbs surname in their record search engine. And low and behold, my 'ebb' flat lined and my 'flow' buzzed.
A list of seven Hobbs was presented, interned in the same lot and section including not only a senior Samuel Hobbs, but also my ancestor Abraham Hobbs.
Can I without a doubt, claim a definate connection between Abraham and Samuel? No, but I now have something to grab hold of. An inkling of evidence that can propel my research on Abraham Hobbs' parental lineage that for years, sat void of any possible names.
I have since wondered about the genealogist that has 'gone as far as he can go' with his research. I suppose that is possible. Or perhaps one comes to a point in which it is not the ancestral information that has stopped, but the researcher's flow of motivation.
And now that my 'flow' has been revived, I inspirationally move forward with my ancestral search.
Keep searching for answers,

Tony Atlas
Real Name
Anthony White
Date of Birth
April 23, 1954
Place of Birth
There is a surprising amount of people online who are searching for a sex tape featuring AJ Lee and CM Punk as of late. It is a bit unusual as there is not one in existence. The former WWE Divas Champion is currently taking some time off from the road to be with her boyfriend, who walked away from the company a couple of months back because of backstage heat.
May 8, 2014
One of the more searched items online among professional wrestling fans is a Naomi Knight sex tape video. The much talked about footage does not actually exist however. WWE fans who do not watch Total Divas are assuming that the quick sex scene on the show is much more explicit than it really was.
March 25, 2014
"It was a tough situation. It's probably the hardest I've ever been kicked, bar none, but at the end of the day it's all about choices. It is what it is. At the end of the day, the pros are handling it, and no matter what it is, I understand people. And for whatever reason, I forgive him. I forgive myself for the choices we've made. I can't hate, brother. That's not my deal. Can't do it." - Hulk Hogan talks about Bubba the Love Sponge leaking his sex tape
March 24, 2014
Some rumors about a Stephanie McMahon sex tape heated up earlier in the week, as fans added fuel the fire without really doing research. The video in question involves two people having sex, but neither one of them is a WWE star. A website called Break is simply trying to draw traffic by using a Triple H and Stephanie parody sex video.
March 16, 2014
Generally, WWE tries to avoid things that have the possibility of bringing negative attention from the mainstream media to the company, but Vince McMahon gladly overlooked Hulk Hogan sex tape scandal because he knows that his former world heavyweight champion was still quite the marketing draw. It is considered a non issue backstage.
March 9, 2014
Rumors started spreading on the internet this week that there was a Velvet Sky sex tape available online, but it turned out to be just a hoax, as a website called Break has been targeting traffic from wrestling fans by using the name of the TNA Knockout. Their website simply features a non nude picture of a girl named Ashley Sky.
March 5, 2014
Rumors recently popped up that there was a Trish Stratus sex tape floating around the internet. However, those were proven to be false. It was simply a website called X Videos using her name on a video that featured a blonde girl that looked a little like the former WWE diva. There are no sex tapes of Trish Stratus anywhere on the internet.
February 13, 2014
An adult website called Porn Cache is claiming to have a Melina Perez sex tape, which has caused quite the frenzy with WWE fans who are hoping to get a glimpse at an all nude diva. However, the naked girl in the video is not Melina. She is simply a somewhat hot brunette porn star that bares a slight resemblance.
January 18, 2014
A judge has ruled against Hulk Hogan in the sex tape case that has been going on since the video was leaked back in 2012. The website that owns the footage has now been informed that they are within their legal rights to publish the video and do as pleased.
January 18, 2014
Rumors were floating all over the internet that there was a Triple H sex tape floating around. It was said that he did one with Hollywood actress Julia Stiles. However, those rumors have been proven to be false, as it was simply a website known as Ninja Hangout pulling a hoax to generate traffic. The website has since been pulled.

At Wrestlemania 2, Andre the Giant won a 20 man battle royal that featured several NFL stars and WWE stars, including Tony Atlas, Hillbilly Jim, Pedro Morales, Dan Spivey, Jim Neidhart and Bret Hart. Andre won the match by eliminating the Hart Foundation at the end.
April 7, 1986
Prior to becoming a professional wrestler for New Japan and future IWGP Heavyweight Champion, Hiroshi Tanahashi had dreams of becoming a professional baseball player. That was his primary sport in high school.
August 11, 2014
During the early 1990s, Billy Kidman was trained to become a professional wrestler by former WWE star Afa Anoa'i.
July 21, 2014
Yujiro Kushida, who regularly teams up with former TNA star Alex Shelley in New Japan, was mentored by former WWE star Tajiri early on in his career.
July 21, 2014
Prior to becoming known worldwide as a legend in professional wrestling, Bruiser Brody was actually a pretty good football player. He was an all state high school player in Michigan. His talents were so good that he caught the attention of a university in Texas. He parlayed his success in college to an NFL career, doing a brief stint with the Washington Redskins.
May 1, 2014
While he was easily one of the best overall performers during his generation, Tully Blanchard was a bit of a headache backstage. Shortly before he decided to leave WWE, Blanchard ended up failing a drug test because of cocaine, so management had no choice but to fire him. Bobby Heenan had to replace him in the match at Survivor Series 1989.
May 1, 2014
While he does not get featured as much by WWE nowadays, Pedro Morales will forever have a place in company history. The Puerto Rican star was the first guy to have won the WWE title, world tag team championship and the Intercontinental Championship. Morales even held the WWE and tag team championship, which he won with Bob Backlund, at the same time.
April 29, 2014
For a young professional wrestler, being able to work with a big time star could be what helps to spring board your career into the next level. A memorable feud with the legendary Harley Race was how Hercules Hernandez managed to make a name for himself during the territorial days. It was shortly after that feud that he found himself being signed by the NWA.
April 28, 2014
Prior to becoming a star in professional wrestling, Scott Norton was a star in the arm wrestling world. The former WCW star won at least thirty championships, including four national titles. He also traveled overseas for competition, including a life changing one in Japan. Norton also had enough recognition to be cast in Over the Top, a Sylvester Stallone movie about arm wrestling.
April 28, 2014
While he will forever associated with the famous wrestling last name, Ole Anderson is actually not an Anderson at all. His real name is Alan Rogowski. He simply adopted the Ole Anderson name to connect with the audience who were already familiar with Gene Anderson, his story line brother. Another interesting point of interest is that Ole Anderson is a play on the word oleander, a poisonous plant.
April 28, 2014
Back in 2000, the world of professional wrestling was saddened by the death of Masakazu Fukuda. While working a tournament match, Fukuda was hit by a flying elbow drop from Katsuyori Shibata. The blow proved to be fatal, as Fukuda had to be taken to the hospital, where he died a couple of days later. New Japan finished the tournament and dedicated the event in his honor.
April 28, 2014
Prior to becoming a star in WCW, Sid Vicious managed to pull off a pretty amazing feat while working for New Japan. Even though he was an unknown, Vicious was able to convince the promoters in Japan to give him a shot at the legendary Tatsumi Fujinami and the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. He lost, of course, but was able to gain some recognition in the late 1980s by being in the match.
April 27, 2014
For as long as she has been on television, Stephanie McMahon has been a topic of interest for professional wrestling fans. Many WWE fans are quite enamored with her, so it comes as no surprise that her bra size is routinely discussed. During an interview once, Stephanie revealed that she received breast implants and now has a bra size of D cup.
April 24, 2014
Since she has been around WWE for a very long time, wrestling fans have been wondering how old Stephanie McMahon is. She was born on September 24, 1976, which makes her 37 right now. Due to her age and the fact that the kids are getting a little older, Stephanie recently decided to scale back on her responsibilities within WWE. She is no longer in charge of the creative department.
April 22, 2014
The boring gimmick that Lance Storm received while working in WWE was actually a little jab at internet wrestling fans. Many viewed him as a guy that was just too boring to be a star. In actuality, though, Storm has a pretty good personality and a sense of humor backstage. WWE went with the gimmick in order to try to something to see if it would give him momentum.
April 13, 2014
Back when he was a teenager in Mississippi, Kamala was a bit of a thief. He became known in town as a burglar who came from a poor family. The local police did not want to arrest him, so they heavily suggested that he leave town to avoid any further complications. The future WWE star opted to flee to the state of Florida, where he made money by picking fruit.
April 11, 2014
In a little known fact in professional wrestling, Bobby Heenan was originally scheduled to manage Jesse Ventura. Vince McMahon had lured him away from the AWA for that particular role. However, Ventura had blood clots in his lungs, which was due to his stint in the Vietnam War, and was forced to retire as an in ring performer. WWE moved Heenan on to other wrestlers.
April 10, 2014
In one of the more interesting connections in professional wrestling, when Wahoo McDaniel was a teenager in Texas, he was coached in baseball by George Bush, who would go on to become the 41st President of the United States.
April 9, 2014
Even though the truth has been out there for several years now, a lot of wrestling fans are still under the belief that Ole Anderson and Arn Anderson are brothers in real life. They're not. The relationship was created for their on screen characters to help Arn connect with the audience quicker because Ole was already established in the territory.
April 4, 2014
Back during the 1980s, one of the most talked about segment in professional wrestling was when Uncle Elmer got married on national television. It was an actual wedding, as the performer was really wanting to marry his longtime girlfriend. When he approached Vince McMahon about it, the promoter loved the idea and decided to make it a draw for WWE.
April 4, 2014
One of the biggest mysteries in professional wrestling involves Dennis Condrey and his decision to walk away from the Midnight Express. When asked about the situation, Bobby Eaton said that his former tag team partner basically left without saying a word to him for two years. Condrey reportedly did not inform Jim Cornette or the NWA, either.

Booty : girl pirates on the high seas
Lorimer, Sara
Adult Nonfiction G535 .L64 2002

Adult Nonfiction G535 .L64 2002
What other readers are saying about this title:
KaliO said:
Pirates, we all know, are loud, dirty, bare-chested men armed to the teeth with cutlasses and knives. Not so, says history. There are many examples of women who took to the life of piracy like ducks take to water. These ladies had to keep their shirts on, but otherwise the aforementioned description more than holds up. Booty, with its tongue-in-cheek tone and its charming illustrations, is a unique look at these unusual pirates. How did Mary Read and Anne Bonny stay disguised as pirate men for so long? How did beautiful Cheng I Sao manage to keep an entire fleet of two thousand ships and eighty thousand pirates under her thumb? Did Sadie the Goat really get in a brawl with a barkeep who kept the severed ears of her victims in a pickle jar? Booty proves that the challenges of a life of crime at sea were fraught with a whole new set of dangers if you would otherwise be wearing a petticoat and bonnet. The lively, colorful images and vivid descriptions spruce up the tales of pillage, plunder, and derring-do to make this mini-history as delightful as its subjects are despicable.

Rapper Gucci Mane sentenced on federal gun charge
ATLANTA (AP) - Rapper Gucci Mane was sentenced Wednesday to serve three years and three months in prison after pleading guilty to a federal firearms charge several months ago.
The 34-year-old, whose real name is Radric Davis, pleaded guilty in May to a charge of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon after reaching an agreement with prosecutors. The judge also sentenced him to serve three years of supervised release with extra limitations on his travel during that time and to pay a $5,000 fine. »Read Full Article

The new chair of Alabama's Democratic Party says there is light at the end of the tunnel for an organization that has struggled in recent years.
"Recruitment is the key to success" said Nancy Worley, the former Secretary of State who was promoted from interim chairman to the party's permanent flag-bearer.
Worley said there isn't a sort of grand plan, just simple steps that she thinks the party could take now in order to be in a better position years down the line.
"The Democrats have to reelect the candidates that are already in office, but we also have to recruit some good candidates and we're looking for those candidates right now," Worley said.
Alabama's Democratic Party was a once-dominant force in state politics. It controlled Alabama legislature for 136 years before Republicans swept into power in 2010. Republicans maintain supermajorities in both the House of Representatives and the Senate. The GOP doesn't have to negotiate with Democrats on any piece of legislation because they can cloture them at any time, shutting off debate.
Worley says she thinks the days of the new one-party preeminence are over.
"I think there is a large number of people in the state of Alabama that want to break that supermajority stranglehold dictatorship that we see in state government now with the Republicans," Worley said.
Democrats have been without any actual influence in the state since the disastrous 2010 election cycle. Democrats were defeated in all of the statewide races too. Chief Justice Sue Bell Cobb decided to resign her seat on the Alabama Supreme Court in 2011 and Lucy Baxley lost her reelection bid for president of the Alabama Public Service Commission.
Worley says she's working to build a coalition of volunteers and donors to rally support for Democrats in the upcoming elections. She cautions that her efforts will take time to materialize.
"Now, am I going to be able to wave a magic wand and change all of this overnight? Probably not, but I think working with other people and getting our message across and recruiting good candidates, that will be our secret to success," Worley said.

One learns, I think, a fair amount about a national culture through its cinema, particularly if the culture is as homogenous as is Korea's, with its rituals, social practices, communal aspirations, tortured history, and earthy cuisine. What is quite special to me is, unlike many other cinemas, that Korean films are made first and foremost for Koreans, because, after all, it is they and not anybody else who speak the language in which the films are made, and, unlike films manufactured by and for the Hollywood studios, they are not made with the export market foremost in mind.

Weird wedding cake factsThe tallest, priciest and most bizarre historic beginnings -- wedding cake oddities you probably didn't need to know, but won't forget after reading!
The most expensive wedding cake ever commissioned cost $30 million. The confection was made by Buddy Valastro (better known as Cake Boss from the famed TLC cake show) at the request of NYC socialite Devorah Rose for her diamond gala event. According to reports, $30 million worth of jewels -- including sapphires, emeralds, rubies and diamonds -- adorned the cake.
More from The Knot: 9 things your groom wants you to know
Queen Victoria was one of the first to have pure white icing on her wedding cake. That's why it's called "royal icing."
In the 17th century, there were two confections: the bride's and the groom's cake. The groom's cake was usually a fruitcake and symbolized fertility.
The "bride's pie" (not cake) was served at most weddings up until the early 19th century.
One of the largest wedding cakes ever made in the US was built for the Mohegan Sun casino at 17 feet tall and 15,032 pounds. The bakers used 10,000 pounds of cake batter and 4,810 pounds of frosting to create the towering confection.
The bride's cake was usually a white pound cake covered with white frosting. Why? To symbolize purity and virginity.
More from The Knot: Celebrity engagement ring lookalikes
In some parts of the US, it was tradition for single women to pull ribbons out from the bottom layer of the wedding cake. One of the ribbons would be attached to a charm, and whoever pulled out the charm would be the next to marry.
Video: Great wedding cake designs
Similarly, in some parts of the US, single bridesmaids would take a piece of wedding cake home. It was said that if they placed it under their pillow, they'd dream of their future husband.
One of the first wedding cakes wasn't actually cake at all -- it was bread. In ancient Rome, bread was broken over the bride's head to symbolize good fortune and fertility to the couple.
The tallest cake ever made (on record) was 25.65 feet tall. The towering confection consisted of 850 sponge cakes, shaped like cake bricks, glued together with caramel. Unfortunately for its creators, the cake didn't last long, as it started to lean and eventually fell.
Breads and rolls were commonly broken at weddings up until about 1655, when the earliest-known sweet wedding cake became popular: Banbury cake. The flat pastry is a spiced, currant-filled oval-shaped cake traditionally paired with tea.
Cake toppers didn't become popular until the 1950s, when couples in the US started using them on their wedding cakes.

5 traditions that will never die (and why!)
By now you've probably heard the phrase "it's tradition!" like a hundred times.

And while your version of the tradition might look different than the original, the sentiment and meaning is still the same.

'Results of a Previous Planetary Pole Shift?' [ApparentlyApparel]

Original and HD version: http://youtube.com/apparentlyapparel
This video shows geological features of the continents that could be a result of a prior pole shift(s). It visually shows how mountain ranges, salt flats, salt lakes, sand, and land erosion could be a results of a magnetic field reversal and a reversal of the rotation of Earth. The theories presented are my own. The video was created to help describe my theories visually. There seems to be sufficient visual proof to support my ideas.

I'm planning on trading in my Canon digital gear and upgrading to a 5D (been wanting to do this for years!). I'm not really in the market for a Mk II/III, I'm keen on the first model.
What roughly should I be paying for body only or with kit 24-105 lens?
Is it worth looking at alternatives (although I'm very familiar with Canons)?
Does anyone have one for sale!??
Advice welcome.
Many thanks.
one here
wish I still had mine - did well over 160000 actuations. they do need good glass and a regular sensor clean mind
5D MkI around £450.
Canon 24-105mm around £500.
There is No such thing as a KIT lens, It just happens that some lens models get bundled as a deal, A lens is a lens is a lens.....
I would read up on the Canon 5D MkI very carefully, Yes it was a great camera for many years, But NOT perfect by any means, Now many years down the road, Finding a really decent one is going to be a hard job, You will be much better of buying a 5D MkII......Period.
Or if your really hung up on full frame with no brand preference check out a Nikon D700....!!!
Each to his own though.....
Thanks for this post.
The suggested 5D seems very reasonable compared to the Sendean Camera repair shop who reconditions models and sells kit (you may know them??).
They have two 5D's at £900 each.
I'm calling MPBPhotographic now - have you purchased from them before??
Thanks for the link.
Given that the Mk2 is about £700-950 odd..if you can afford more - I'd go for that.
MPB seem like good people, bought a load of stuff from them all ok.
See also http://www.lcegroup.co.uk/Secondhand-Search/
Mbp are good and well respected, ask for a discount though.
Good luck
MPB are good for new and used and to sell your unwanted gear too aswell !
I have owned 5Dmk 1 2 and 3
On the upside the 5D1 is a great buy , full frame and very high quality images, really reliable and well built
On the downside the battery life is not great , the lcd screen is very poor and no auto iso should you need that, also no video
The 5D2 is an amazing camera and better than the 5D1 by a country mile
The 5D3 is better than the 5D2 but not as groundbreaking as it was much smaller gap between the mk2 and mk3
My advice a second hand 5D2
Without a doubt technology wise the MkII & III are superior but if the OP has budget limitations the MkI will be a fine camera for them.
I too have had the MkI MkII and now the MkIII - if i was just doing this as a hobby I would seriously without question go for a second hand MkI. I still insist the shutter sound on the MkI is how shutters should sound and 12mp is just the ideal size in my opinion.
I have both the MK2 and MK3. As mentioned about, the MK2 is an awesome camera, leaps ahead of the MK1. I would suggest going for the MK2, Ive seen afew new for around £900-£1100.
Why do you want to go to a 5D1? I am not saying you do not have valid reasons, but when you say "been wanting to do this for years" it suggests you may (may!) be doing it out of dogma rather than practicality. And bearing in mind the lenses you may need to replace, this may reduce the price you can afford for a good quality version. And after the LCD etc of the 400D the 5D may irritate you. If you could afford the 5DII, that would be a different kettle of fish.
Perhaps you can get the camera for a 'trial' period?
Thanks for the great advice and in put.
I'm not fully pro but do get paid for the stuff I do - portraiture, prommotional and just starting a bit of product photography.
I've been getting by with my 400D and some good lenses. This set up has been great for what I do. Budget contrains me for the Mk II so ended up buying MPB Photographic's Mk I with the 24-105 (I've kept my 50mm lens).
Body £420
Lens £589
All in, after part ex with my stuff I paid just under £560. This kit should be a big a leap up for me - quality in picture tones and my 50 will be a 50.
MPB Photographic seem highly reputable, so I'm pleased in fact very pleased ! - will wait and see!
Thanks again.
Thanks Mikehit, actually yes I have a cool off period with the store. You're right, the II would be great. Hear you on the LCD. Really it's a budget requirement and I know I'm going to like my pictures more with what I purchesed. Also the boost in ISO is going to be v useful in natural situations.

For businessmen and sales people, custom business card holders are indispensable tools that can help them gain new customers and keep up with existing ones. Card holders are designed to hold, keep, and protect business cards, ATMs, ID cards, calling cards, and the like. Promotional business card holders are ideal as a giveaway item because it can help clients organize themselves and boost their efficiency at the same time. They are also the perfect gift for saying "thank you" to a loyal customer. Business card holders with logo are also great for introducing your products and services to a new client.

Every time a salesman takes out their business card, your logo will be seen by the public. They are cost efficient when compared with advertising on the newspaper or television. As a promo item, they will not cost as much as traditional advertising mediums. The fact that business card holders will be used frequently makes them efficient for building up your brand.

Baigneuses (Metzinger)
|English: Bathers
|Jean Metzinger
|c. 1908
|Dimensions and whereabouts unknown
Baigneuses, also called Bathers, is a Proto-Cubist painting created circa 1908 by the French artist and theorist Jean Metzinger (1883–1956). This black and white image of Metzinger's painting was reproduced in Gelett Burgess, The Wild Men of Paris, Architectural Record, May 1910.[1] It is the only known photograph of the work, now lost or missing.
Baigneuses, likely an oil painting on canvas (as practically all Metzingers' works of the period), was painted in a vertical format with unknown dimensions.
The work represents at least four nude women (or bathers) relaxing in a highly abstract landscape with vegetation and a small body of water visible through reflections and from the woman on the left who's legs are submerged from the knees down. The central figure holds the trunk of a tree with her left arm and a woman with her right, forming a tight central mass. The two nudes at the center, treated in a light color, stand-out against a darker background. They are flanked on both sides by a standing and a sitting nude.
The colors of the painting, as its dimensions and whereabouts, are unknown
The Wild Men of Paris[edit]
Leading up to 1910, the draftsman, illustrator and poet, Gelett Burgess, interviewed and wrote about artists and artworks in and around Paris. The result of Burgess' investigation was published after his visit to the 1910 Salon des Indépendants, the massive anti-establishment art exhibition in Paris, and one year before the scandalous group exhibition that brought Cubism to the attention of the general public. At the 1910 Indépendants Jean Metzinger showed his Portrait of Apollinaire (the first Cubist portrait according to Guillaume Apollinaire); Albert Gleizes showed his Portrait de René Arcos and L'Arbre (The Tree), paintings in which the emphasis on simplified geometric form overwhelms representational interests.[2][3][4] Louis Vauxcelles in his review of the 1910 Salon des Indépendants made a passing and imprecise reference to Metzinger, Gleizes, Delaunay, Léger and Le Fauconnier, as "ignorant geometers, reducing the human body, the site, to pallid cubes."[3] The works of Metzinger, Le Fauconnier and Delaunay were exhibited together. Le Fauconnier showed the geometrically simplified Ploumanac'h landscapes: Le Ravin and Village dans les Montagne, along with Femme à l'éventail and Portrait of Maroussia. In the same exhibition hung the works of Henri Matisse, Maurice de Vlaminck, Raoul Dufy, Marie Laurencin, Kees van Dongen and Henri Rousseau.[5]
Gelett Burgess writes in The Wild Men of Paris of the same exhibition:
There were no limits to the audacity and the ugliness of the canvasses. Still-life sketches of round, round apples and yellow, yellow oranges, on square, square tables, seen in impossible perspective; landscapes of squirming trees, with blobs of virgin color gone wrong, fierce greens and coruscating yellows, violent purples, sickening reds and shuddering blues.
But the nudes! They looked like flayed Martians, like pathological charts—hideous old women, patched with gruesome hues, lopsided, with arms like the arms of a Swastika, sprawling on vivid backgrounds, or frozen stiffly upright, glaring through misshapen eyes, with noses or fingers missing. They defied anatomy, physiology, almost geometry itself![1]
After the death of Paul Cézanne in 1906, his paintings were exhibited in Paris in the form of several large exhibitions and a retrospective at the Salon d'Automne of 1907, greatly affecting the direction taken by the avant-garde artists in Paris. Prior to the advent of Cubism, Cézanne's geometric simplifications and optical phenomena inspired not just Metzinger, Matisse, Derain and Braque, but the other artists who earlier exhibited with the Fauves. Those who had not transited through a Fauve stage, such as Picasso, also experimented with the complex fracturing of form. Cézanne had thus sparked a wholesale transformation in the area of artistic investigation that would profoundly affect the development modern art.[3] The Fauvism of Metzinger, Matisse and Derain was virtually over by the spring of 1907 Indépendants. And by the Salon d'Automne of 1907 it had ended for many others as well. The shift from bright pure colors loosely applied to the canvas gave way to a more calculated geometric approach. The priority of simplified form began to overtake the representational aspect of the works. The simplification of representational form gave way to a new complexity; the subject matter of the paintings progressively became dominated by a network of interconnected geometric planes, the distinction between foreground and background no longer sharply delineated, and the depth of field limited.[2]
Burgess continues:
Though the school was new to me, it was already an old story in Paris. It had been a nine-days' wonder. Violent discussions had raged over it; it had taken its place as a revolt and held it, despite the fulmination of critics and the contempt of academicians. The school was increasing in numbers, in importance. By many it was taken seriously. At first, the beginners had been called "The Invertebrates." In the Salon of 1905 they were named "The Incoherents." But by 1906, when they grew more perfervid, more audacious, more crazed with theories, they received their present appellation of "Les Fauves"—the Wild Beasts. And so, and so, a-hunting I would go![1]
Turning his attention to Metzinger's abode, Burgess writes in The Architectural Record:
Metzinger once did gorgeous mosaics of pure pigment, each little square of color not quite touching the next, so that an effect of vibrant light should result. He painted exquisite compositions of cloud and cliff and sea; he painted women and made them fair, even as the women upon the boulevards fair. But now, translated into the idiom of subjective beauty, into this strange Neo-Classic language, those same women, redrawn, appear in stiff, crude, nervous lines in patches of fierce color. Surely, Metzinger should know what such things mean. Picasso never painted a pretty woman, though we have noticed that he likes to associate with them. Czobel sees them through the bars of his cage, and roars out tones of mauve and cinnabar. Derain sees them as cones and prisms, and Braque as if they had been sawn out of blocks of wood by carpenters' apprentices. But Metzinger is more tender towards the sex. He arranges them as flowers are arranged on tapestry and wall paper; he simplifies them to mere patterns, and he carries them gently past the frontier of Poster Land to the world of the Ugly so tenderly that they are not much damaged—only more faint, more vegetable, more anaemic.
What's Metzinger? A scrupulously polite, well-dressed gentleman as ever was, in a scrupulously neat chamber, with a scrupulously well-ordered mind. He is complete as a wax figure, with long brown eyelashes and a clean-cut face. He affects no idiosyncrasies of manners or dress. One cannot question his earnestness and seriousness or sincerity. He is, perhaps, the most articulate of them all. Let us not call him prim.
"Instead of copying Nature," [Metzinger] says, "we create a milieu of our own, wherein our sentiment can work itself out through a juxtaposition of colors. It is hard to explain it, but it may perhaps be illustrated by analogy with literature and music. Your own Edgar Poe (he pronounced it 'Ed Carpoe') did not attempt to reproduce Nature realistically. Some phase of life suggested an emotion, as that of horror in 'The Fall of the House of Ushur.' That subjective idea he translated into art. He made a composition of it.""So, music does not attempt to imitate Nature's sounds, but it does interpret and embody emotions awakened by Nature through a convention of its own, in a way to be aesthetically pleasing. In some such way, we, taking out hint from Nature, construct decoratively pleasing harmonies and symphonies of color expression of our sentiment." (Jean Metzinger, circa 1909)[1]
Metzinger and Picasso[edit]
There is a close association between Metzinger's Baigneuses (Bathers) and Picasso's 1908 Paysage aux deux figures (Landscape with Two Figures). Both stances are verbalized with the same abstract vocabulary. In both cases, the figures are camouflaged or blended with the background, their bodies forming part of the landscape. These works were completed at a time when Metzinger frequented the Bateau Lavoir in Montmartre, where he may have seen Picasso's painting. There are differences, too, worth noting between the two works (aside from the size and colors which are unknown in the Metzinger case). While the dominant feature of Picasso's painting is the landscape, Metzinger chose to highlight the figures; the landscape playing only a secondary role in the overall composition. Metzinger's figures are much larger relative to the canvas. They are prominently and symmetrically displayed, and of lighter color contrast relative to Picasso's asymmetrical juxtaposition and subdued contrasting. Two of Metzinger's nudes—to the right and left of the dominant central figures—are quite inconspicuous, as in Picasso's piece. In both paintings the nudes and landscape have become unified, not presuming a representation of reality.
They are the product of a reductive abstracting process, of an open, freewheeling process of synthesis—where a dialogue between components lead to the liberation from any particular classical foundation. They are combined harmoniously though pictographic imagery rendered in residuum abstractions of apparent mathematical codes. In the case of Metzinger, his prowess in mathematics is well documented.[3] In the case of Picasso, the mathematical association with his paintings has been made through Maurice Princet.
Metzinger's early interests in mathematics is well documented.[3] He was familiar with the works of Gauss, Riemann and Jules Henri Poincaré (and perhaps Galilean relativity) prior to the development of Cubism: something that reflects in his pre-1907 works.[6] The French mathematician Maurice Princet promoted the work of Poincaré, along with the concept of the fourth spatial dimension, to artists at the Bateau-Lavoir. He was a close associate of Pablo Picasso, Guillaume Apollinaire, Max Jacob, Marcel Duchamp and Jean Metzinger. Princet is known as "le mathématicien du cubisme." He brought to the attention of these artists a book entitled Traité élémentaire de géométrie à quatre dimensions by Esprit Jouffret (1903) a popularization of Poincaré's Science and Hypothesis. In this book Jouffret described hypercubes and complex polyhedra in four dimensions projected onto a two-dimensional page. Princet became estranged from the group after his wife left him for André Derain. However, Princet would remain close to Metzinger and participate in meetings of the Section d'Or in Puteaux. He gave informal lectures to the artists, many of whom were passionate about mathematical order. In 1910, Metzinger said of him, "[Picasso] lays out a free, mobile perspective, from which that ingenious mathematician Maurice Princet has deduced a whole geometry".[7]
Picasso's Landscape with Two Figures is almost entirely Cézannian, in its color, in its reduction to simplified forms and in its loose brushwork. Picasso still shows a sense of depth perspective through shading, despite some flattening of the surface. Metzinger's painting is less influenced by Cézanne in its brushstrokes, hardly visible in this photograph. Its quasi-Nabis post-Symbolist treatment can be observed, but Metzinger vacates all depth of field. The background and foreground have become one. The only devices that indicate depth are (1) elevation in the picture plane; lower is closer and further is higher, and (2) objects in front of others obscure the object in the background, such as the central nude appears in front of the nude she holds with her right hand.
In both paintings, the faces of the models have been left out, featureless, reduced to their simplest spherical form.
In light of the fact that Metzinger frequented the Bateau Lavoir since 1908 and exhibited with Georges Braque at Berthe Weill's gallery,[8] introduced to Picasso by Max Jacob and Guillaume Krotowsky (who already signed his works Guillaume Apollinaire),[3][9] and in view of the similarities between the two works, it is probable that Metzinger's Bathers was painted the same year; 1908. The differences between the two paintings suggest that, while Metzinger may have been influenced by Picasso (unlike Albert Gleizes), his intention was certainly not to copy or even resemble the Spaniard, as would soon Braque (or visa versa). His intention was to create his own brand of art, dependent on his own lived experience.[6]
Then the kingdom of the Fauves whose civilization had appeared so new, so powerful, so startling, took on suddenly the aspect of a deserted village.
It was then that Jean Metzinger, joining Picasso and Braque, founded the Cubist City. (Guillaume Apolllinaire, 1913)[10]
Whether in advanced non-objective mathematical workings or abstract geometrical form, along with his non-representative dislocated outward appearance, Metzinger creates a pure image—"the total image".
By 1908-09, in such studies as Baigneuses (Bathers), it is apparent that Metzinger was not following the lead of Picasso or Braque in their hermetic approach to painting—he had little interest in imitating, whether it be "an orb on a vertical plane" or anything else—Metzinger was on a path leading to abstraction and to the almost total disintegration of recognizable form.[6]
Proto-Cubism[edit]Main article: Proto-Cubism
According to Metzinger, in his Cubism was Born, published years later, Cubism had been born out of the "need not for an intellectual art but for an art that would be something other than a systematic absurdity"; the idiocies of reproducing or copying nature in trompe l'oeil on a surface that is rigorously flat. With this type of illusion other artist of his generation such as Gleizes and Picasso wanted nothing to do. "Quite clearly" Metzinger notes, "nature and the painting make up two different worlds which have nothing in common ..." Already, in 1906, "it could be said that a good portrait led one to think about the painter not the model".[11]
In his Le Cubisme était Né: Souvernirs, Metzinger writes:
As for Picasso ... the tradition he came from had prepared him better than ours for a problem to do with structure. And Berthe Weil was right when she treated those who compared him/confused him with, a Steinlen or a Lautrec as idiots. He had already rejected them in their own century, a century we had no intention of prolonging. Whether or not the Universe was endowed with another dimension, art was going to move into a different field.
The illusion had been maintained up to 1906 or 1907 through the negligence of those whose job it was to clear away the rubbish, but the break was achieved in 1908. No-one would again dare to look at a Puvis de Chavannes or read Balzac. No-one, I mean, among those who walked above the Moulin Rouge, which they would never even have thought of entering.[11][12]
Metzinger continues:
I had measured the difference that separated art prior to 1900 from the art which I felt was being born. I knew that all instruction was at an end. The age of personal expression had finally begun. The value of an artist was no longer to be judged by the finish of his execution, or by the analogies his work suggested with such-and-such an archetype. It would be judged – exclusively – by what distinguished this artist from all the others. The age of the master and pupil was finally over; I could see about me only a handful of creators and whole colonies of monkeys. (Jean Metzinger, Cubism was Born)[11]
From his Montmartre studio on the rue Lamarck to Picasso's Bateau Lavoir studio on the rue Ravignan, writes Metzinger, "the attempt [prétention] to imitate an orb on a vertical plane, or to indicate by a horizontal straight line the circular hole of a vase placed at the height of the eyes was considered as the artifice of an illusionistic trickery that belonged to another age."[11]
I wanted an art that was faithful to itself and would have nothing to do with the business of creating illusions. I dreamed of painting glasses from which no-one would ever think of drinking, beaches that would be quite unsuitable for bathing, nudes who would be definitively chaste. I wanted an art which in the first place would appear as a representation of the impossible. (Metzinger)[11]
Perhaps it was the search for beauty that had attracted Metzinger to the abstract. Beauty depends not only on geometrical forms or simplified colors, but plainly beauty as it exists in itself. It wasn't just the simple result of a reductive approach to the elements of all the parts. It wasn't either just a dialectic view of everything that led him just as simply to treat each object as opposed to the other, and therefore thoroughly distinct. The blurring of differences was against the entire tenor of the whole.[6][11]
The narrative of Metzinger outlined by his Bathers schematic geometric arrangements was the result of an abstracting process not solely based on "axiomatics". These axiomatic abstractions, however, by themselves contain no assertions as to the reality that can be experienced, not in a logical sense deduced from experience, but free inventions of the human mind, abstractions, construed by mathematical means. With works such as Bathers had emerged a growing accent on the power of the mind to create for itself, a growing spirit of abstraction, of invention, fabrication.[6][11]
As one would expect, Metzinger's concept of painting was both more sophisticated and perceptive than Cézanne, but fundamentally the shape of the misunderstandings that were to follow Cubism were the same as Cézanne's, and so too were the implications. Metzinger had seen painting as rooted in the experience of nature: four-dimensional and geometric. He stressed this heavily, and at the same time brought out the flatness and dislocations of Cézanne's transformations of nature—with the conceptual aspect of multiple perspectives and non-Euclidean spacetime. The importance of Cubism, he accepted, was to emphasize the idea that everything visible (objects) and invisible (consciousness) has an n-dimensional geometric basis (an idea he associated with 'construct an infinite number of different spaces for the use of painters').[6][11]
Nearly conscious in someone like Michelangelo, or Paolo Uccello, quite intuitive in painters such as Ingres, or Corot, it works on the basis of numbers which belong to the painting itself, not to whatever it represents. (Metzinger)
" My conviction was justified: art, that which lasts, is based on mathematics. "

Cotton Incorporated Adds New Online Program
Cotton Incorporated's highly respected Engineered Fiber Selection Cotton Manage-ment System software is utilized by industry leading mills and textile companies around the world.
From helping mills manufacture better yarns and end products by maximizing the quality uniformity of bales in their laydowns, to streamlining cotton flow and communication, Cotton Incorporated's Fiber Competition team affects numerous stops throughout the immense cotton pipeline.
USCrop Web
The latest addition to their computer software suite family is an Internet-based product called USCrop Web – housed at cottonquality.net. It is the most recent iteration of a software product launched in 2000 called EFS-USCROP software, but USCrop Web allows users to see the most current bale data from the various classing offices around the United States directly from their own laptop computers, ie: the Internet.
High Volume Instrument (HVI) data for upland cotton will be updated on a weekly basis, and users can do queries for bale property ranges that may fit their specific needs (or their end products), whether that query is by state or by any of the 10 regional United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Classing Offices across the country.
"USCrop Web, while similar to the USDA Weekly Crop Summary Report, also provides access to related graphs and reports anywhere you have access to the Internet," says Susan Foote, Associate Director, Fiber Competition Marketing and Communications, Cotton Incorporated.
Getting There
To access USCrop Web, type cottonquality.net in your Internet browser and you will be taken to the home page that highlights the words "Welcome to the Cottonpedia." From that point, click on the words "Cotton Quality" and you'll be taken to a page showing an American flag and a small tractor. Click on the flag and that will lead to the "log-in" page.
"Once users establish their log-in information, they can immediately start utilizing the information contained on the site from reports, to related graphs," adds Foote.
Cotton merchants can search for the number of bales that meet HVI quality ranges they may need for a specific customer, or ginners can pull up all bales that have been classed in their state or by regional classing office, to see how their gin's grades are comparing to cotton in neighboring regions.
"Growers can find value in USCrop Web because they can pull up data by state for the past several years to show trends in the various HVI properties and even equate that to varieties," says Foote.
Excellent Customer Service
One reason why Cotton Incorporated technologies are readily adopted by so many textile and textile-related companies across the world is because they provide unparalleled customer service and training to augment the software products they create.
"We design software programs not only for mills, but also for merchants and ginners and provide on-site installation for free phone and e-mail support and software documentation for each customer," says Foote.
"That really makes a huge difference in placing our products in the markets where they can positively influence the use of cotton."
