Hot or Not? Cardboard Bedding
Cardboard Bedding that's not really cardboard. An extremely sharp image was printed into the cotton duvet to result in this startling realistic bedding. Because the image was printed into the cotton, it will not fade after washing. The bedding is made of 144 count threads per square inch and we can thank Erik van Loo and Peggy van Neer for their new Le Clochard line.
I think this bedding is actually really cool and the plus side- 30% of each bedding purchase is donated to help Centrepoint, the UK charity for homeless young people aged 16-25. The Duvet can be purchased through DutchByDesign.com.
What do you think of Cardboard Bedding?

You've got to be kidding...
it's derelicte!
Wow that last picture is super inappropriate.
I appreciate it is for a good cause but find it rather tacky and insensitive. IMHO it would be better to create something stylish and attractive that more people would actually want to buy and so probably generate more money for the charity.
homeless chic? puhleaze.
Agree, that last picture is unsettling. I'd like to see the bedding in person but I would never put it on my bed.
Absolutely shameful. How low do you have to be to mock the homeless?
I agree with all comments so far. I thought this was a mock of the Zoolander Derilicte campaign! Funny in the movie as a mock of the pretentiousness and complete lack of any real-world knowledge of the fashion industry....
This is REAL? And my mouth is still agape at that last photo. Homelessness is trendy? I am actually insulted by the two "hot" votes.
the donating to charity is awesome, but i personally think this is hideous and they would get more buyers, and therefore more money for charity, if they made something a little prettier!!! honestly who would buy this, and i think that last pic is wrong as well.
That print? No way. But that printing technology for other designs? Pretty cool.
It goes with the broomstick lamp from yesterday...
nouveau hovel
As openminded as I am I would like to emphatically say"
"hell to the naw."
Offensive and inappropriate. If the goal of the charity is to fight homelessness so that eventually no one has to sleep in a cardboard bed--don't make a mockery of the current problem by printing faux cardboard on sheets for people who aren't homeless.
hahaha, guffah @ "hell to the naw"
yeah, this look is no good.
WOW. I'm wondering how this went down in the meeting at Dutch By Design:
"Hey we should do something for the homeless."
"Yeah, totally,dude. You know what the homeless need? Higher thread count in their duvets."
"TTTOOTALLY. But we should print cardboard on the sheets to make them feel at home, too. Teehee...see what I did there?" "
"Yeah man, not cool."
"Well, what if we sold the faux cardboard sateen to people WITH beds. That way, they'd be, like, TOTALLY aware of what it's like to be homeless"
hahah-- i think it's a great gag gift. perfect for sending off the kiddy to college no?
Sorry, it reminds me of Robert Rauschenberg's piece "Bed."
I'm sure some stupid hipster will buy it so they can look gritty in air conditioned comfort.
It's very well done. Trivializes the very problem that these people are trying to address. This is idiotic and completely insensitive.
I dunno -- I think a visual reminder of how fortunate we are could be a good thing. And 30 percent goes to charity -- as opposed to zero percent of other bedding. I don't think this is mocking the homeless -- I think it's a statement about our own over-consumption in the face of poverty.
I agree it would be hard to live with, but that's sort of the point, isn't it?
I'm so glad I'm not the only one that wanted to shout Derelicte
Impressive in a very novel way... definitely not going on my bed though.
allow me to defend myself... i voted "hot" for 2 reasons:
1- money to charity is always good
2- that printing technology is awesome
the idea of cardboard bedding... not hot
Hmm, that would go so well with my flea-bite printed tights and my starvation ribcage tank top. I'm so socially conscious that I dress like the poor so everyone knows it.
Love the printing technology, hate what it represents. I'd rather just give the money directly to the charity.
yes, offensive is the word. i don't care if they're trying to make it ok by giving to charity. it's the classic radical chic as defined by tom wolfe in 1970. really get sick of the brainless designers. there is nothing fun or classic about this. just pretentious bad taste. blech.
I work at a printer, so the detail is incredible, and certainly something to be explored. However, the subject is completely ridiculous. If they printed some sort of scenery, or animal, or even a pile of rocks on the bedding, I think Apartment Therapy readers would be able to appreciate their craft more.
However, the "shock" value of their current offerings is just that "shock", no "awe".
Yea that's a pretty insulting way to raise money
"I'd rather just give the money directly to the charity."
clever - taste = not clever
deeply offensive.
oh my ..I hit hot due to the charity funds..but of course it's horrific..and offensive...just that if some do purchase this..the money, or some of it, would at least help...but you are all correct up there!!!
ok, i'm not usually one of these kind of people but i went to their web site and wrote an email to the company to say how offensive i think it is. would urge others to do the same, if you believe that speaking up makes a difference. even a tiny one.
This product was widely viewed as awful (and it is!)the last time it was posted here. Why post it again? Has the product improved? Have readers lost their minds? No. So please, AT, don't post this again.
Is this the glamorization of homelessness? This takes cultural appropriation to an entirely new and inappropriate level.
it's not a good product when it reminds everyone of zoolander.
Nice that it's going to charity, and they did a really good job, but...very, very unfortunate. As someone said, it's "derelicte!"
I design product that is manufactured in China (so sue me) and all the boxes of stuff come in boxes looking exactly like that- from the markings and yellow clear tape to wrinkles which make the box look like it was sitting on the water for 30 days. That bedding stresses me out because it would be like sleeping at work. So not what I want to think about when I crawl into bed at night. Each time I scroll up to look at it I get more stressed.
utterly horrible!
i like it. :)
Hey! What a great idea...i hear next they'll have a dinner party set with pictures of starving children!
hahaha you guys are funny with your 'offensive' and your 'horrible' comments.
I like it. id drape this baby over my sex chair.
So distasteful an insensitive in a day and age where a lot of people could be one or two paychecks away from losing everything.
Anybody else check out the 'PERS' section of their website? It shows the manufacturing process ....
Looks like the icing on this cardboard cake is the product's made in a third-world country.
34 pounds is what, about $60? Only 30% of which will go to a UK charity? How's about we just drop a $20 in the mail to a homeless shelter or an advocacy group working on the root of the problem and sleep on whatever we have been sleeping on? Better for society, and better for the environment. Done.
Great idea for an Art Exhibit... to make us think about how many people are homeless, not only in the US but also in south america, africa and so on...
Money for charity is good, but this cardboard bedding in everything but hot.
I'm astounded at the prim outrage here in the comments. You know what's "disgusting," "inappropriate," and "shameful"? Homelessness itself. Not purposeful and well-executed design that makes a simple product into a charged reminder of your own enormous wealth in relation to the vast majority of the world's inhabitants. This bedding is what you make of it, like life itself. I think it could be a daily black-humored joke or a sort of forget-me-not. Or both. Bravo, Dutch Design, for touching a nerve.
This is....there are no adequate words.
Much like a number of other folks, I thought this was a joke. It was amusing in Zoolander because everyone understood the irony and the shamelessness in it. This? It is....well, no words.
Beyond these four.
One less potential customer.
Also, from the FAQ (awkwardly translated by Google):
What about the working conditions in the factory in Pakistan?
In the factory, no child labor and forced labor, and are not discriminated against based on race, color or sex. There are factory set wages paid based on applicable local laws, the maximum working week is 56 hours and there are safe working conditions. This we have checked in April 2009 itself.
Is produced in an environmentally sound way?
During the production process, no toxic chemicals, so the impact on the environment minimal and there is a product that also skin friendly. There is also a special machine that thoroughly cleans the wastewater before it reaches the sewer.
Where are the Le Clochard duvets produced?
Production takes place in Europe (Turkey). Since they have the decision on the best quality cotton. The quality we have chosen consists of 144 threads per square inch.
How is it packaged duvets?
The duvet covers are packaged in a biodegradable plastic bag with paper stickers. A photograph of the packaging can be found in the system menu.
hanna 1: I notice that you registered today, and you only have 2 comments, both on this topic.
I believe that the proceeds to purchasing them will go to help the homeless in the UK. It may look ugly, but it is for a good cause.
The nerve it has touched has nothing to do with my own personal involvement in the cause to eradicate poverty and everything to do with the inappropriateness of collecting profits (even if it is only 70% of them) with what they likely thought was a great combination of shock and irony.
How very urbane and chic of them to photograph a woman on a bench using it. Classy.
This is an example of "purposeful and well-executed design"?
I think this bedding is an example of misguided and pretentious design.
Like others have suggested, one should not excuse the designer just because part of the proceeds from this product will be donated to charity. Just donate directly to an homelessness advocacy organization or charity. You can avoid owning an ugly duvet to boot.
I wonder if I can get a set of fine dinnerware with trash-picked food images on it????
lemort1, frogfood Derelicte is exactly what I thought when I saw it too!
I'm astounded at the prim outrage here in the comments. You know what's "disgusting," "inappropriate," and "shameful"? Homelessness itself. Not purposeful and well-executed design that makes a simple product into a charged reminder of your own enormous wealth in relation to the vast majority of the world's inhabitants. This bedding is what you make of it, like life itself. I think it could be a daily black-humored joke or a sort of forget-me-not. Or both. Bravo, Dutch Design, for touching a nerve.
Hanna1, we all agree that homelessness itself is what's shameful in our society. We all would like it to become a distant memory. This 'black-humored joke' only serves to perpetuate the image of people living under highway overpasses or filthy alleys. A 'forget-me-not' is even worse. We live in a disposable society already, where the 'haves' have too much stuff and the 'have-nots' have nothing. I simply don't buy that this is the only way a textile or design company could bring attention to the problem of homelessness and raise funds for charities that help reduce it. Pretty cynical if it is.
i dig it. people are waaaay too uptight.
No Bueno. No Bueno.
This was already posted last year. (and caused a similar reaction)
Well, in checking out the actual site....this is their ad:
Sleep under a cardboard box so a homeless young person doesn't have to.
A large proportion of the proceeds from the Le Clochard duvet cover go to SZN, the foundation for homeless youngsters in the Netherlands. The income is used to fund housing projects which prioritise supporting young people in finding work or continuing their education.
Sometimes we are too quick to judge.
Blah... AT did a post on this sometime LAST YEAR. Not many people cared for it then, and not so many people care about it now. I, don't care one way or another- I wouldn't own one, or spend an insane amount for something that looks crappy. I'd rather donate it straight to housing projects.
I understand why some people may find this offensive, but I see it as a lasting visual reminder to help those less fortunate. Had it been just a normal or funky print, people may quickly forget what cause was supported when they bought it. Why it might not be to everyone's taste it does seem to be trying to help, which is a commendable act.
I once had a boyfriend who would have gone there - with real cardboard. Yes, the last image is a quandary for the politically correct - but while your getting all self righteous just remember it's a luxury to get pissed about this sort of thing.
I like it. The price is good too.
It's arrogant beyond belief considering the many homeless ppl who would appreciate not having to use cardboard for shelter/bedding.
"What about the working conditions in the factory in Pakistan?
In the factory, no child labor and forced labor, and are not discriminated against based on race, color or sex. There are factory set wages paid based on applicable local laws, the maximum working week is 56 hours and there are safe working conditions. This we have checked in April 2009 itself."
Hanna1, this really doesn't tell much. Who enforces these conditions? Who is guaranteeing that there is no discrimination? Given that first world countries seem incapable of managing discrimination even with strong laws, I find it highly unlikely that this true in Pakistan. And when does a 56 hour week and "set wages based on applicable laws" tell anything other than the company (you perhaps?) is following the local laws. What is the minimum wage? Pennies an hour? Vague statements full of language meant to reassure is often a damn good sign that the employees are being screwed.
As for those of us who are full of "prim outrage" I would suggest that for some of us it is a case of well considered moral outrage. If you find morality a prim endeavor then perhaps it is time to consider your values.
Saying prim may trigger pictures of old women dressed from neck to toe but it in this instance it is just using a provocative word to obfuscate the righteousness in our disgust.
For people who find this funny I think you've been living in your air conditioned worlds for too long.
"There are factory set wages paid based on applicable local laws, the maximum working week is 56 hours and there are safe working conditions."
Pakistani minimum wage for unskilled workers is equivalent to $42/month.
How would you like to work 9 hours & 20 minutes a day (10 hours w/ two 20 minute breaks?)/6 days a week for $512/year?
In my opinion, the workers in Pakistan need more of our charity than panhandling drug-addicted kids in Amsterdam who already have ample resources and social services funded by their own country to help them.
I think it's pretty incredible. A provocative design that is marketed so that one thinks of the less fortunate who actually sleep on and under actual cardboard every night.
Perhaps what is offensive is the *perception* (of us AT-types) that the designers are going to make a ka-jillion $ (or kroner) even after a 30% charitable donation. Probably far from the truth/reality.
And yet, if it were done as an art installation - a one-off piece - we could see a photo of it, or visit the actual installation and raise our eyebrows and comment to a bystander, "How clever, how provocative." And then go our merry way.
The ingenuity of this is, because plain ole bedding is typically a product of mass production/marketing - and homelessness is a widespread (and growing issue here in the good ole US of A) that it really violates the line of security that someone has who actually has a bed to sleep in at night.
If these designers were like Bernie Madoff - I'd find it offensive. This however is damn provocative. Maybe some designers are hoping for that response. Provocative. I think that the discomfort it generates is why people find it offensive and in poor-taste. But instead of resting on just one or two-word judgments...try writing more about why it bothers you...and perhaps you'll figure out more about what makes you tick and where your boundaries lie. Maybe "everyone" hates it because of a kajillion assumptions they've made about the motives of the designer thus conveniently avoiding and bypassing the provocative nature of the design.
Sorry for the ramble - too much to drink tonight.
JenPDX, I think you make a good point about why something is provoking what response. It's a worthy consideration. My response is that I live right at the poverty line and have done so for most of my adult life. I am never more than a month or two away from falling thru the 'cracks' (now becoming valleys) into living on the streets. I know, because my friendships are largely with those like myself, and a few who are very privileged, that for those who are on the edge of the edge this kind of product is deeply insulting and that this kind of capitalism masking itself as provocative design and thoughtful generosity is morally repugnant. Added in the realities of this crap being made at slave wages by the poorest of the poor turns it from repugnant to simply immoral.
the same arguments you make about this bedding, you can of most expensive bedding featured on AT
to all who say they would rather just donate money to charities...
PLEASE COMPARE YOUR CHARITABLE GIVINGS vs how much you've spent on bedding in the past however many years..
i bet a majority of people spend a lot more on bedding.
gordon: I have no relation to these designers or to design in general, actually. I only discovered the site a couple months ago, and this was the first post where I had strong feelings and wanted to say something in contrast to all the bashing, so I registered.
graceless: I, too think the last photo was lame and needless. I find the product itself IS a great combination of shock and irony, so I see no problem in making profit off of it whilst others are making profits off of products that are banal and uncharitable.
cometz: You're right that no product made in a developing country is going to be made in a perfectly humane work environment, but I think the point is that they have made a better effort to be humane in their enterprise than most. I don't think morality is a prim endeavor, but I think censorious homogeneity and oversimplification of complex relationships between creative expression and social issues is. Also, I make less than the average US annual income and am currently unemployed but I still think this design is interesting and smart, not insulting or morally repugnant.
Maybe it's a re-post or a ploy to boost page views but I think it's an interesting idea and I was happy to see people come out in support of it.
I hadn't much thought of the insensitivity and politics of the the bedding as I am not so PC. Simply and from a design stand point, I was not keen on the concept and look.
Besides, I think my dogs might thing its their wee wee pad. ouch
Homeless Haute Couture.... Hmmmmm, will they come out with matching P.J.'s too?
Haha, I love this thing!
I was #39 on the HOT vote. Heck, I was actually homeless for a period of my life and it doesn't offend me. Although I was fortunate enough to have people I could freeload off and didn't have to sleep in cardboard boxes.
Heck, if these were 600-800 thread count, I'd probably pickup a set. But, I don't think they need the charity ruse. It seems almost an apology. There is never a need to apologize for art.
I call bullsh** on you losers who claim you would "rather donate to charity." HA! When was the last time you dropped a big old check off? Hmmmm? But who gives a shi** if a penny of it is going to charity. It's a play on your guilt and it is glorious.
Oh and this is a f*ing repost
Apartment Therapy = FAIL

How to Clean up the Pineal Gland
Cleaning up the Pineal Gland is useful for those wishing to develop their multidimensional perception. The Pineal gland will naturally make its own DMT when fully operational and we will be able to remain in a visionary state most of the time. An awakened pineal gland brings the ability to consciously astral travel, explore other dimensions, foresee the future and receive communications from loving dimensional beings.
DMT is a component of Ayahuasca – a plant medicine from the Amazon that brings profound physical and heart healing through its purgative effects and the perception of other dimensions. Those that use this medicine go into a period of "work" where issues come into awareness and can be healed with the insights that come from DMT consciousness.
The advantage of cleaning up our pineal gland so it makes its own DMT is that we can be in a continuous state of spiritual "work" and we are spared the purgative effects of drinking the ayahuasca. Thus we no longer need any medicines as an adjunct to our spiritual lives. DMT is a totally natural substance that the human body will manufacture and distribute when it is in a healed state. Thus it would appear human beings were intended to be visionary beings and be able to tap into the information in other dimensions. This dimensional perception transcends the ego and rapidly heals our sufferings, conflicts and thus karmas.
Here are some basics for pineal detox:
1. Mercury - this is really bad for the pineal gland. Its poison. Dont let this get into your body. Mercury tooth fillings are pineal toxins. Have them removed. All medical vaccines are also mercury tainted. Thimersal (a vaccine preservative) is methyl mercury and is very difficult to get out of the brain once its in there. Avoid eating fish and bottom feeders such as shrimps and prawns. Tuna and dolphin meat is particularly bad for mercury – the bigger the fish the higher the concentration of mercury in its body tissue.
Eco light bulbs – if one is smashed mercury vapour is released into the room and inhaled. Avoid at all costs breaking one indoors.
Mercury can be removed from the body by the daily use of chlorella, wheatgrass and spirulina. Cilantro herb taken daily can help remove mercury from brain tissue.
2. Fluoride - in toothpastes and tap water. Its another heavy duty poison. Avoid it at all costs. It calcifies the pineal tissue and basically shuts the gland down.
3. Organic foods - some pesticides are pineal toxins. Organic healthy food with a high ratio of raw is supportive to pineal detox. Meat is not helpful either. Some people who channel seem to not be affected but for many the toxicity and density of meat will pose challenges and we want to make the work easy if we can.
4. Alcohol + Smoking. Naturally these need to go along with the emotional attachments to using them (usually boils down to self worth issues or unresolved trauma).
5. Heart Healing - raises the overal vibration of the being and heals fear – a useful advantage for when we start seeing other dimensions.
6. Other Toxins - if something is toxic do not put it in your body. If you cant say its name its most likely bad. Toxins include artificial sweeteners (aspartame K) , refined sugar, phylenanine (in squashes), E numbers beginning with 1, deodorants, cleaning chemicals, dental mouthwashes (saltwater is suffice) and air fresheners.
7. Raw Chocolate. Raw cacao is a pineal gland stimulant / detoxifier in high doses because of the high antioxidant content.
Being disciplined with steps 1-6 for a year or so will certainly bring about pineal awakening. Step 6 is optional but very useful too.
Love and blessings,
Free Spirit

Why do I get the impression that tobacco's on the no-no list just to take a cheap shot at smokers? I roll my own organic cigs, might have helped to actually cite a little "science" to back it up. Just tobacco, or all combustibles? Shamans don't smoke or eat meat? I don't thiiiink so. Otherwise, thanks for an informative read.
are you silly. Just cause you smoke you think its a cheap shot at smokers. Don't be ridiculous. The author is just giving you ways to detox your body and pineal gland, and any one with a brain would know smoking is not good for you in any way possible. Forget about your own personal gain and acknowledge the information. Typical of humans, to feel offended when someone is trying to help. I bet if the author said sniffing crack is also bad for the pineal gland and someone on here sniff cracked, they would say something as silly as you said. But common sense tells you that most of these drugs are their purposely by the control system to control brain patterns and lower mental frequency and destroy the heart. Ofcourse its not good for the pineal gland.
Here, here!
Are there people who really sniff cracks?
yes they sniff butt cracks,smoking meme was is a social speriment or a amusing ploy in swaying the 'masses"and it works of course outlawing smoking in open areas is the zenith of manipul;ation enforced by the anti smoking dweebs indoctrinated with the program, aintcha ever seen the children of amazonian tribes with big ole leaf wrapped stogies?we got bigger prollems to solve then be side tracked with idiots obssesion withother peoples private behaviour.outlawing plants is an insult to the creator and is true blasphemy.an an an an oh neva eva mind,lol.,good site love the info.
if you think smoking isnt bad for you , then would you let your child smoke it? i didnt think so. please be compassionate to your self when talking to others. they know your full of dodo.

Nicotine's effect on fluoride
Nicotine, most know of it through smoking and tobacco use. I've always wondered why the US Government is so adamant with anti-smoking and tobacco usage. The carcinogenic properties are bad yes, i do condone smoking but only in small amounts and from organic of hand rolling tobacco, pipe tobacco or Cigars. I do however condone nicotine gum, or other nicotine treatments. Here is why.
Nicotine has an adverse effect on fluoride.
Remember how fluoride inhibits choleric activity? Nicotine excites them, rebounding and undoing fluorides effect. Nicotine is being used as a treatment for ADD and ADHD, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease. I will not list the rest, for every single ailment fluoride is known to cause, nicotine has the reverse effect.
It makes you wonder, why people who smoke may find a considerably less effect from Prozac and other anti-depressants. Why most people with ADD and ADHD develop into smokers. WHY DO MOST DOCTORS SMOKE?
Parkinson's disease is your brain's ability to receive and use dopamine from the blockage or death of brain cells in the motor regions. The cause is UNKNOWN. On a side note, I'll mention again how fluoride enters the brain tissue easily and deposits aluminum at will, which has a conspicuous effect of killing brain cells and clogging up dopamine receptors. The most common treatment is levodopa; a drug that increases dopamine levels, so that what receptors and brain cells you have left can receive a better supply of dopamine. Funny, nicotine has the same effect. On a large level. Large enough so that it becomes addictive. Your brain becomes used to the higher dopamine count, so when the dopamine stops coming, your brain says "hey, i want some more 'o' that."
There is a lot more info. Here are some links for your own further research.
Summation – Fluoride & Pineal Gland: Up until the 1990s, no research had ever been conducted to determine the impact of fluoride on the pineal gland – a small gland located between the two hemispheres of the brain that regulates the production of the hormone melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone that helps regulate the onset of puberty and helps protect the body from cell damage caused by free radicals. It is now known – thanks to the meticulous research of Dr. Jennifer Luke from the University of Surrey in England – that the pineal gland is the primary target of fluoride accumulation within the body. The soft tissue of the adult pineal gland contains more fluoride than any other soft tissue in the body – a level of fluoride (~300 ppm) capable of inhibiting enzymes. The pineal gland also contains hard tissue (hyroxyapatite crystals), and this hard tissue accumulates more fluoride (up to 21,000 ppm) than any other hard tissue in the body (e.g. teeth and bone). After finding that the pineal gland is a major target for fluoride accumulation in humans, Dr. Luke conducted animal experiments to determine if the accumulated fluoride could impact the functioning of the gland – particularly the gland's regulation of melatonin. Luke found that animals treated with fluoride had lower levels of circulating melatonin, as reflected by reduced levels of melatonin metabolites in the animals' urine. This reduced level of circulating melatonin was accompanied – as might be expected – by an earlier onset of puberty in the fluoride-treated female animals. Luke summarized her human and animal findings as follows: "In conclusion, the human pineal gland contains the highest concentration of fluoride in the body. Fluoride is associated with depressed pineal melatonin synthesis by prepubertal gerbils and an accelerated onset of sexual maturation in the female gerbil. The results strengthen the hypothesis that the pineal has a role in the timing of the onset of puberty. Whether or not fluoride interferes with pineal function in humans requires further investigation."
you sound like a big time tobacco corp, tryin to get people to smoke. nicotine is addictive thats why so many people use it, not because its good for you? if it was good for you it wouldn't be lethal. If water (pure water, as from glaciers) is harder to drown cells in the tap water because its purity. so don't pull that water is good but you can die from it shit.
Extremely interesting points you make. The nicotine you mention being used for Alzheimer's etc. is also available in pill form as Niacin B3 in the forms of nicotinamide and in another less uncomfortable form, of 'non-flushing' vitamin B3.
I know that people with schizophrenia do get considerable relief of some of their mental symptoms by smoking, and certainly organic tobacco does not contain radioactive saltpeter usually used to stop cigarettes from extinguishing.
Also NPK chemical fertilizer, containing potassium, can be quite radioactive in one of the isotopes used, and this is a particular problem in Brazil at least, where the isotope that is radioactive (either potassium 20 or 40 I think) makes cigarettes there very radioactive indeed, and it is the radioactivity that is in fact the main cause of lung cancer there, though cigarette filter tips are made of glass wool microfibre, and that too also causes exactly the same kind of lung damage and cancer too as asbestos does, due to the fibres getting inhaled into the lung tissues over the years and cutting them to shreds.
For the people who wish to grow their own organic tobacco and food crops, try adding basalt rock dust to your soil for 100% mineral replacement in depleted soils, it is the best way to enrich your soil there is., including microminerals not present in NPK chemical 'fertilizers', such as praseodymium, lanthanum, samarium and so on, as these elements have been proven to double the lifespans of animals in lab tests.
Schizophrenia itself, though greatly alleviated by vitamin B3, may well be caused by specific brain damage, just like syphilis causes, due to a virus that is uniquely found in the cerebrospinal fluid of most sufferers of schizophrenia, I think maybe cytomegalovirus is the culprit mentioned, though of course other forms of brain injury can cause similar cognitive disruption, resulting in so-called schizophrenia.
Thankyou so much for taking time to post this info. I appreciate it very much. it was an interesting read..
It was a fine article. It would've been a great article if not for the major omission of mentioning DMSO for heavy metal detoxification, and specifically for its capability of passing through the blood-brain barrier and getting heavy metals out of the brain. It should be considered as the first method of choice, and superior to cilantro in this regard. I can't imagine how much cilantro one would have to consume to get the same effect as merely drinking .75 oz. of DMSO per day, as I often do.
DMSO for detox, this makes me interested can you explain further?
Dmso is found as a naturally occuring substance in woody plants. Correct? Perhaps a natural diet would supply sufficient quantities, especially since natural living would reduce the need for dimethyl sulfoxide.
What brand do you buy? So you just take a shot (.75 oz) of DMSO orally per day for detox? How long should one use this for detox… 30 days or so?
I use DMSO too sometimes as a carrier, though never heard of that use before. I use EDTA too sometimes to clear out my arteries and micro capillaries in the brain, eyes, ears etc. with good results, using capsules inserted in the rectum for better absorption, as the stomach does not absorb EDTA very well; for the reason that DMSO tastes like vodka mixed with turpentine and is slightly nauseating, I administer that too via the same route using a syringe without needle.
Indeed drinking DMSO simply with water is extremely nauseating, but the good news is that DMSO is amazingly tolerable when mixed with citrus drinks. I do this regular detox via squeezing 2 small limes or 1 large lemon into a 24 oz. glass of water, and the citrus flavor can drown out the DMSO taste. Likewise with a 24 oz. glass of store-purchased orange juice.
I do find that on days that I drink DMSO, that my body craves an additional 20 oz. of drinking water. So, for those who try this, do be prepared to drink more water than normal, or you may get a headache to notify you of your dehydration.
Drinking DMSO is arguably the most potent total-body (including the brain!)detoxifying method known, but you surely won't get enough of it by only using it on your skin as a carrier. I use it that way as well with lugols iodine solution and various essential oils that can't be ingested safely.
Moreover, keep in mind that if you haven't previously detoxified your body via other methods prior to regularly drinking the DMSO, that you might get a very intense 'Herkheimer reaction'.
As I see it, given all the Fukushima radiation that is now getting into our air and food supply, and not likely to disappear anytime soon, along with all the other issues mentioned in this article, detoxifying via drinking DMSO regularly is a requirement for maintaining good health, which certainly includes keeping a clean pineal gland.
Which DMSO do you buy? What is the dosage and how long should one take it for detox?
Whatever brand you buy, make sure you buy it in a glass bottle, as plastic is sure to have dissolved into it otherwise.
The vapour will rust metal caps on bottles by the way.
Get 'reagent' quality for human consumption; it is the purest you can get.
DMSO is something you need to read up on, as there is too much to explain here, but it will irritate your skin, as it will take all the oil out of your skin and dry it out, leaving it really red and sore, so be careful if you are thinking of rubbing it on your skin.
Also it will transmit toxic dyes etc from your clothing right into your body, and it will transmit any chemical right into your body really fast, that is why they use it as an adjunct in cancer therapies as a carrier to help meds get to difficult places in the body, but be careful, as the rate at which it is said to speed up absorption is said loosely to be a billion times faster, though this is, needless to say, a great exaggeration that is not intended to be literal; you can get some idea of what would happen if you mixed it with an intoxicant for instance, you would just OD.
Ingesting DMSO is by no means a pleasant experience tastewise, and you get a sudden rush of warmth in your throat as you swallow it which feels very peculiar. For that reason, I just use a needle-less syringe to squirt it inside my rear end, which is completely devoid of discomfort.
Minute dilutions of DMSO are said to be helpful in dissolving cataracts and floaters, but overdo it and the retina, which is 60% oil, might be harmed. 5ml up to 50ml by the method I describe should be quite safe. It is an extremely potent substance, and I use it just before laying down to go to bed, so it can work overnight by being absorbed throughout the body.
Needless to say, you should be thoroughly voided in that department before using, or toxins would be recycled, though it is absorbed extremely fast anyway, so within an hour or so I would expect all the liquid DMSO to have been thoroughly absorbed via the mucous tissue.
You might want to try just 5 ml at a time to start off on, to see what it does for you, and you will find that to be completely comfortable, though I would rest a few days between doses as you do not want to risk irritating the tissue there. I find 30, even 50 ml quite safe and without any problems, except that I want to drink a lot of distilled water afterwards. But I don't do that every day, in fact very seldom, and have never experienced any tissue damage afterwards. The best way to open your third eye without running into trouble is to pray to Lord Krishna, who is the original eternal higher self of all souls in the cosmos, long before Allah, Yahweh, and Jesus were invented (Yahweh is just an elemental occult creation of harvested life force, bonded with the souls of the Judaic followers, much of which is gained by blood sacrifice of gentiles during wars created for them to die in, in massive ritual sacrifices, hence the killing of goyim being said to be like the offering of incense to Yahweh).
More on sourcing DMSO; I have recently bought some more DMSO, but have decided to go this time with sourcing it from suppliers providing the exact grade recommended by Dr Stanley W. Jacobs, as he is the guy who first found the therapeutic qualities of DMSO.
The stuff I am getting from now on is in fact sold in an HDPE food grade plastic container, so I will risk that, though I am not altogether happy that even HDPE is totally safe, and would much rather glass were being used, but anyway, everyone is using it with no complaints as far as I can see, though I noted that Dr Mercola is stating that a form of plastic introduced to replace poorer plastic containing gender-bending BPA has another chemical in it with potentially worse effects than BPA; I am just trusting that this HDPE plastic does not contain that.
Regarding my earlier recommendation to source reagent quality, please disregard that, as that grade is not what I thought it was.
I have seen that there are a hell of a lot of cowboys out there, just like the plastic surgeons who happily shove industrial grade silicone into women's breasts, absolutely ruthless, so my advise to everyone is to source DMSO only from people connected to Dr. Stanley Jacobs, as I will be doing just that from now on. That is unless you can source the same quality as he uses in a glass bottle directly from a reputable chemical manufacturer who can specify suitability for medical usage. Good luck.
What's with all the glowing m's in this article? Making my eyes go weird – or maybe it's my over active Pineal gland… mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Hi major omission what is DMSO
Water of life or our own urine,is the best cleaner.For more information go to http://www.in5d.com,in search tape Andrew Norton Webber, Destiled water and pineal gland.Love,Sanela
I read in a 'Harpers And Queen' Magazine article by Leslie, or Dianne Kenton (both health writers) in the mid 1980′s that sunlight on the skin speeds up the removal of all types of pollutants known from all bodily tissues by a factor of 20 to 50 times faster.
Though to benefit from this one would need to shower off regularly, with the slight disadvantage that one would loose a lot of Vitamin D from the sunbathing, as this is manufactured in the surface layers of the skin and is lost in part by showering within 24 hours of sunbathing.
20% of bodily waste is expelled through the skin in perspiration, so when sunbathing for cleansing, the showering is definitely a must.
Great! So where can we get Ayahuasca? Presume it is legal.
WHAT ABOUT CANNABIS? high amounts of cannabis use will also clean youre soul/help with the pineal gland.
Im vegan and dont drink alcohol nor do i consume toxins, the only problem for is me the tap water which contains fluoride. what should i drink as opposed to tap water? does bottle water have it inside as well?
Bottled water is often not true spring water but bottled tap water, and toxic plastic actually dissolves in water. Plastic bottles with the number 12 and above signify a reasonable food grade plastic; numbers less than that leach plastic into the water. Oily drinks like milk, need even higher numbers, and acidic drinks often have numbers right up into the 80′s to cope with this problem. Myself, I distil my water to get water with pollution or minerals less than 1ppm, which really cleans your tissues out; tap water seems a nauseating toxic soup to me now, ans any minerals in water are useless and even harmful to your body, as they are not bonded within natural plant-based molecules to make them bio-assimilable.
is this odd treatment giving you any real insight.i'm very interested because as a child and even now i sometimes compose music and work in my sleep and i know there is some way to reach an inner self.i've experienced obe and predicted future events the day before i saw them. i'm quite interested in learning how to trigger this or control it myself.
reverse osmosis water filter is what im looking into
I have heard that vinegar can help decalcify the pineal gland. Does anyone have any more info on this? Thanks for a great article.
I feel compelled to add to this well intentioned article. If you want to "Clean" up the pineal gland, then you need to "Awaken" the pineal gland. Once awakened the increased blood/chi flow will push out/transmute any and all toxins/blockages. How do you do this? Easy… chanting Aum, alternate nostril breathing, breath retention exercises, acupressure/acupunture, candle flame gazing, certain yoga postures, water of shiva, broad spectrum herbal regimin (gotu kola, reishi, wolfberry, schisandra, many others). Try working these all into a daily routine. But be careful what you wish for…. You might just end up running off to the emergency room for a shot of thorazine if you're not prepared to face the ineffable. The key to the pineal gland is learning how to open up/enter your CENTRAL channel.
Infinite and Eternal Blessings to All.
Thank you all for this wisdom!
If you live in South America they tend to put the fluoride into the salt not the water, so watch out for that. Yes most South American countries are heavily fluoridated, and remember its' not really just fluoride but an industrial waste contaminated with everything from lead, to mercury and uranium. In France they also fluoridate the salt although in shops you can buy un-fluoridated versions, but be aware of that if eating out.
Vince: Get a water filter that takes out the fluoride, that is the most cost effective solution. I recommend the ones from Mercola website or something with the NSF (I think that's it) certification. Don't get the gravity filters, they don't do a good job. Thats been my experience.
Did anyone try agnihotra ash water yet? seems to be very potent to say the least cheers, Michael
What a bunch of hippy wacko nonsense. Throw a dart and paint a target around it then call it progress. But we can see you for the shit bags that you are.
Just stick with your Doritos.
THE DUDE… PLEASE GO AND NEVER RETURN HERE TO GIVE YOUR NEGATIVE REPLYS. Un wanted….. your kind are everywhere and we are trying not to be a part of you… that is why we are here.
..or come on down to ECUADOR for the real thing: Quito is the Capital, right on the Equator, at 9,350 ft. (1.77 miles) above sea level in the heart of the Andes Mountains, where the weather is 50′s in the evening, and 70′s during the day all year round. Valley of Eternal Springtime! Do not hesitate to contact me for your relocation or exploration needs!
Im just curious to ask does anyone here think that where you to go refill a 5 gallon water tank like at a SuperMarket have fluoride in it as well? Because that's were I usually get my drinking water. Even if the water travels within all those "filters" of the machine to make a more cleaner and purified version of tap water?
Actually, mercury in very small, diluted amounts is good for you. It helps balance your bodies systems. I go to a homeopathic doctor and he gave me some for a sore throat. I must say it works pretty well.
Homeopathic doctor are giving you almost no amount of mercury, but its potency. Homeopathic cure isn't about the mercury itself, but about it's spiritual energy you are missing. Simply: They dilute mercury and shake it so many times, that there is almost no mercury but a lot of energy from it (received by shaking). And it helps if it's what you lack.
Has anyone tried Iboga? I hear from some research it can be even more powerful than ratfish/skatefish oil which pete peterson says detoxes / decalcifies the pineal gland…
I have a question and I would really appreciate anyone who take the time to answer this sinse it is something i am very concerned about. My sister just had her first child and i am a proud aunty! I was told that i needed to go and get my vaccine for whooping cough or i wouldnt be able to hold or play with my niece!!! The problem now is that this year I have changed so much in so many ways, I feel that everything we put into put into our bodies effects us, I have been so joyful for the first time in my life i have been eating right i gave up smoking ciggarattes , i have this new joy and i believe its due to the fact that i have started meditating and eating right. I dont want to get this vaccine if its going to set me back on the progress i have made spiritually, if this shot is going to re-calcify my pineal gland more than it already has been i dont want it! Does anyone have any idea about this shot and what it might do to me at this point in my life?I hope i dont sound paranoid but i am trying to open my pineal gland, not shut it in with stupid western "medicine":)
if it was your sister that told you that you need to vaccinate, then obviously she will be vaccinating her baby once she is of the age. so if your sister vaccinates the child she should be protected by the virus. If i was you, i would be more inclined to inform your sister of the dangers of vaccinations and plead with her to research before making a decision to do this…
Awesome post.
Be aware of robbing ourselves of nutrition by consuming "superfoods" like chocolate (Cacao) on regular basis? http://rawwillpower.com/2012/1394/
I have a question that i saw was partly discussed, was nicotine. I know the reqular cigs are just aweful and i did quit last year. however i do now use a eCig now and wondering if this still has a negative impact on healing the pineal gland. I have read that the nicotine by itself is not harmful but does have some good benefits/qualities to it, and with the fluid for the ecigs, the ingredients are nicotine/flavoring of choice/Propylene Glycol and/or Vegetable Glycerin. I also found that cyaenne peper is also a spice that can help with detoxifying the body as well. Any feedback or information would be awesome. And thankyou so much in advance!
I drink a smoothie in the morning of cinnamon, ginger,turmeric, cherries, greens,papaya. Great stuff. I know i just feel better. Im an 85% raw fooder, and don't eat meat and Im great health wise. Try it yourself. The proof is in the pudding….
This article is an exact copy of the article above. Can you say plagiarize?
I'm gonna think about this over a glass of Jack Daniels and a fine Cuban cigar.
Your claim about the pineal gland producing DMT is totally unfounded. This whole post is actually. You're simply making shit up to pull in ad revenue.
Mind you, I very much wish the pineal gland produces DMT and that decalcifying it does actually work but there has been no true research to back it up.
The only reason mindless zombies keep saying it produces DMT is because it has enzymes capable of producing DMT.
Check your facts before you ramble. It's misinformation (or at least, unsupported information) that makes finding the truth extremely hard.
Most posters here (if not all—(I gave up three quarters way through) are like firefighters with no safety gear quibbling about what underwear they should wear!
Until you all stop trying in vain to save yourselves and swallow your pride (and educate yourselves not in the way the UN and Illuminati have trained you to—I.E. by swallowing eastern mysticism and food fetishes just as pre-war Germans were) and accept Jesus Christ as your saviour, then you will be consumed in the fire.
Sorry if that's not PC, but it's the truth from the God of all creation.

This Semiconductor Company Has Upside Potential
Shas is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Texas Instruments (NASDAQ: TXN) has been on an upward trend since last October and has given investors a return of more than 20%. But, according to Gartner, global semiconductor revenue fell 3% to $297.6 billion in 2012, as compared to last year. It has also revised down its next year growth estimates to 4.5%. In the hugely competitive semiconductor market, this poses a threat to the long-term growth potential of Texas Instruments.
Texas Instruments has been a major player in the analog and embedded processing market. These segments contributed 70% of the company's revenue in 2012, as compared to less than 50% about five years ago.
Analog processor segment
Texas Instruments is the market leader in analog semiconductors, with more than 18% share. This segment contributes the maximum revenue for the company. Its share is expected to further increase in the future, driven by the company's greater focus and expanding product portfolio.
Acquisition of National Semiconductor has also helped the company to broaden its product line and to enter into important industrial markets. This also helped Texas Instruments expand its capacity, which will result in accelerated growth. This acquisition helped the company increase revenue by 10% in 2012. National Semiconductor's strength in power management, amplifiers, and interface chips will lead to further growth in Texas Instruments' revenue, due to the emerging synergy.
Embedded processor segment
IDC expects the embedded processor market to grow 23% from 2012 to 2016, and to reach $47.6 billion. This means 3.65 billion embedded processors will be shipped in 2016, as compared to 2.54 billion in 2012. Currently, Texas Instruments is the second largest player with 12% share. The main focus for the company in this segment has been new product development to broaden its portfolio and serve more customers. Revenue from the embedded segment declined 7% in 2012, but this was more due to macro factors.
Last year, the company announced its plans to stop focusing on smartphones and tablets. This was done to focus more on expanding its OMAP footprint in the embedded application. The company intends to use its wireless connectivity solutions in a broader set of embedded applications, which require fewer resources and less investment. This will allow it to capture more market share in this $19 billion market.
Cash flows for investors
The company increased its dividend by 33% to $1.12 per share annualized. It also added another $5 billion to its stock repurchase plans. In the trailing 12 months, the company has returned a total of $3 billion to its shareholders, i.e. 107% of free cash flow. This reflects the company's confidence in the long term sustainability in its analog and embedded processing business model. The company generated more than $3 billion free cash flow, which is 16% more than a year ago.
Qualcomm (NASDAQ: QCOM) rose from being the sixth largest chip maker in 2011 to being the third largest chip maker in 2012. It has surpassed Texas Instruments in ranking because of the 29.2% rise in revenue. Its current market share is 4.3%, while it is 3.7% for Texas Instruments. The major growth segment for Qualcomm is its wireless business, which was the only sector in the chip business to grow in 2012.
Driven by strong performance last year, the stock has been steadily rising since last July. Its trailing P/E ratio is 17.05, which is almost equal to the industry average. Its forward P/E is 13.15, indicating an optimistic increase in its EPS. The EPS growth forecast for the next five years is more than 18%. Therefore, the stock has a huge upside potential and investors ready to hold it for long term might want to invest in this stock.
STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM) is one of the major players in the fragmented semiconductor industry, with around 3% market share. It is Europe's largest semiconductor chip-maker, based on revenue. It is also currently winding down its wireless venture with Ericsson AB, which has contributed to six consecutive quarterly losses. Its first quarter net loss was $171 million, bringing total loss over the last six quarters to about $1.3 billion.
After giving returns of around 65% to investors from November 2012 to February 2013, the stock is currently on a downward trend. It has fallen more than 20% since then. The trailing P/E ratio of the company is negative, while forward P/E ratio is 11.54. The EPS growth forecast for the next few years is also moderate. Therefore the stock is not expected to give much return to investors.
Texas Instruments has been expanding its analog and embedded portfolio every quarter. The company can currently support $5 billion of additional revenue without making any additional capital outlays. Due to continued capital expenditure to expand capacity, there might not be enough short term impact on the financial performance, but this is expected to increase the market share of the company in the analog division in future. Since both analog and embedded processor markets are fragmented with a number of players, the company has enough opportunities to gain more market share.
For 2Q13, the company expects revenue to be in the range of $2.93-$3.17 billion, while EPS to be in the range of $0.37-$0.45. It is currently trading with a trailing P/E ratio of 23.05, which is almost in line with the industry average. The forward P/E ratio is 16.98. This indicates higher than expected EPS growth. The EPS growth forecast for the next five years is more than 13%. The company also gives out enough dividends and has plans to buyback a huge chunk of shares in the years to come. Therefore, the stock is expected to give considerable returns to investors in mid to long-term.
