Imprinted Thermos And Travel Mugs For Brand Exposure

By Katya Reonal

Getting affordable advertising mileage by means of business gifts should never be ignored by any promotional marketer. Distributing printed travel tumblers and thermoses can surely contribute to the success of any advertising campaign. They are suitable to everyone, have a large imprint area for better logo visibility, and provide regular brand exposure. Above all, they're eco-friendly.

Logo exposure does not end after distributing printed travel tumblers and thermoses. In fact, that is only the beginning. They can easily act as your moving advertisements. Everyone uses travel mugs and thermoses wherever you go. They are used to start the day with a cup of either hot coffee or chocolate in offices. You see them in picnics, camping trips and other outdoor activites. Imagine your corporate logo being printed on these and seen by a great number of people nearly everywhere.

Give as many printed travel tumblers and thermoses as you can to as many buyers during your event.

Traditional corporate giveaways have a short life of usefulness. Pens, after some time, will dry up and be thrown away. Sticky note pads will eventually be used up. Customized calendars will be taken down from the wall once the year ends. Such is not the case with travel mugs and thermoses. They can be used and reused. Logo exposure is gained each time the travel tumblers and thermoses are carried and used. That's affordable recurring advertising for you for a long period of time.

Promotional thermoses and travel tumblers are not only advertising tools but are thoughtful and meaningful tokens of appreciation as well. Show your long-time clients that you value their loyalty to your business and make them a part of your holiday gift list. Bolster your relationships with your sales people by distributing promotional travel mugs during events like company gatherings and similar occasions. Hand as many travel tumblers and thermoses as you can to as many recipients during trade shows, expos and conferences.

In addition, not only is this a great way of saying thank you for attending the event but also the attendee leaves with a great promotional item that will make a good first impression on your brand name and products. Not to mention, companies that make a good impression are always bound to impress even the hardest of clients.

You need not spend a fortune when purchasing travel tumblers and thermoses. There are thousands of styles and models that come in different shapes, sizes and capacities that will fit every budget. Before buying, always remember to choose which seller you would like to go with. There are dozens of websites selling promotional travel mugs and thermos. You can also search for "promotional gifts" using your preferred search engine.

MMA Flashback: Bobby Lashley Mauls Mike Cook At Maximum Fighting 21

By Ross Everett

Heres a word of advice to future opponents of Bobby Lashley"dont make fun of his background in professional wrestling. Mike Cook found that out the hard way in the co-main event of the Maximum Fighting Championships MFC 21: Hard Knocks event. After spending the run up to fight week making fun of Lashleys tenure in the WWE, Cook lasted a mere :24 seconds before being choked unconscious.

In prefight interviews, Cook had suggested that Lashley would soil himself once he entered the ring (though in not so erudite terms). That clearly incensed the massive 64 250 pound Lashley, who despite his inexperience in MMA is hardly the sort of individual prone to losing bowel control at the prospect of a fight.

A smirking Cook attempted to tap gloves with Lashley before the fight, but his obviously insulted opponent would have none of it. Even after the opening bell rang, Cooks arrogant approach to the fight continued as he immediately clinched with his opponent as if he had no regard whatsoever for Lashleys strength. Lashley immediately locked in a guillotine choke and basically yanked Cook down to the mat by his head. Once on the canvas, Lashley cinched it in deeper as Cook flopped around"partially in an effort to escape, partially in an involuntary muscle reaction as he sunk into unconsciousness. Cook didnt even get the chance to tap out as veteran referee Big John McCarthy recognized he was out cold and pulled Lashley off of him.

After the fight Lashley gave his opponent a hug and flashed his trademark megawatt smile as if to say I told you so. In his postfight interview, however, he did slip in a final verbal jab toward his vanquished opponent saying that he didnt come to play and that he is all business.

Despite the fact that mixed martial arts and professional wrestling have been interwoven from the beginning, the American Top Team trained Lashley has been singled out by less knowledgeable fans. Against his next opponent, Bob Sapp, hell be facing a foe that has also spent some time in the worked environment of professional wrestling. In addition to his legit fighting experience in K-1 and PRIDE, Sapp has worked for several Japanese pro wrestling organizations and briefly held the prestigious IWGP Championship. The IWGP title has been held by pro wrestling legends such as Keiji The Great Muta Mutoh, Antonio Inoki and Tatsumi Fujinami, as well as reigning UFC heavyweight champion Brock Lesnar.

Even though Sapps days as a serious fighter are long past and he likely spends less time in the gym during a given year than Lashley does in a month, he does present an element of danger. Hes still got decent punching power, and his sheer bulk will be a challenge for Lashley who could give up as much as 100 pounds come fight night. Still, Sapps only victories in several years have been against overmatched and/or outsized opponents.

Hair Care Secrets

By Cindy Myers

Falling hair, balding scalp, thousands of remedies and confusion on what to use. This is a problem plaguing millions of men and women around the globe. Be it the new hair care product that your favorite multinational giant has introduced, or a simple homemade remedy your grandmother suggested, we need to know what will work for our hair type. In this trial and error process we begin to eliminate what does not work, but at what cost?

To maintain our hair we must first understand what type of hair we have. It can be dry or oily or both in patches. Then we can use hair care products accordingly. If we are already blessed with thick and naturally healthy hair there is no need to use hair care products unnecessarily just because your favorite TV channel advertises so. However maintenance of healthy hair is necessary and can be achieved by keeping scalp clean and using protein based conditioners and also following healthy eating habits and diets.

Naturopathy suggests home remedies for hair care. Did you know that a mixture of egg yolk and honey combined and applied on the scalp is supposed to be good for dry hair. Hot oil massaged on the scalp increases circulation at the hair roots and prevents hair loss. With so much accent on styling, the so called hair color and streaks and gels brings with it all the ill effects of chemicals which destroy the hair roots and result in severe hair loss.

An array of hair styling equipments has emerged. Lifestyles have changed and more women feel the need to socialize especially in the corporate sectors. Hence they are always looking for something different to do with the hair. Hair care products like hair dryers, curlers, hair irons and mousse and gel are constantly being used by men and women and this adds to the woes of hair loss.

Markets are flooded with hair proteins and hair vitamins. Hair needs nourishment more from within than from the outside. These supplements make up for the loss of vitamins and minerals and promote hair growth or at least prevent loss of hair. Any pills or supplements have to be taken after consulting your doctor. Sometimes if it is not necessary there is no need to unduly pump our body with pills even if they are mere vitamins for hair care.

Finally good hair care involves keeping the hair clean and preventing it form clogging due to sweat. Washing the hair regularly and using conditioner leaves the hair silky and smooth.

Minnesota Completes Late Game Comeback To Beat San Francisco

By Ross Everett

In a victory for the highlight reels, Brett Favre completed a 32 yard touchdown pass to Greg Lewis with 2 seconds remaining in the game to lift the Minnesota Vikings to a dramatic 27-24 come from behind victory over the San Francisco 49ers. It was the 43rd time in his career that The Gunslinger had pulled out a victory when his team is tied or trailing in the fourth quarter.

While the Vikings may have won the game on the scoreboard, the Niners took the decision where it really matters. San Francisco rewarded NFL betting devotees with their third pointspread cover in three games this season, cashing tickets as +6 road underdogs. It was the Vikings first setback to the spread against two victories this season.

Favre talked about the win after the game:

"It's hard to even recall all of 'em. This one was pretty special.

The game winning touchdown pass was upheld by video review. Niners cornerback Nate Clemens said this was a hard setback to take:

"I've had some hard losses. This is just another one for the list. We just have to keep chopping away."

Greg Lewis, who caught Favres game winning pass, said that the entire offense was fired up on the final drive:

"The offensive line was fired up. Adrian was fired up, and the receivers were fired up. And Brett fell right in. He was fired up, too, like: 'We're going to get this done And that's the attitude that we took out there on the field."

In his postgame comments, Vikings coach Greg Childress commended the cool confidence of his veteran quarterback:

"He's been in many, many, many, many situations like that so it never hurts you to have a veteran like him going down the field."

In the Niners locker room, coach Mike Singletary could be overheard giving his team a tough love pep talk:

"You have nothing to be looking at the floor for! You didn't steal anything! You didn't do anything wrong! OK? We're going to get better! We're going to get there! We will see them again in the playoffs, all right? You hold your head up!"

The 49ers will return home to host the St. Louis Rams next Sunday. Theyll host the Atlanta Falcons the following week before a bye week. Minnesota will host the Green Bay Packers on Monday Night Football next week. Theyll play at St. Louis the following weekend before returning home to host the Baltimore Ravens on 10/18.

The acai berry can be extremely advantageous if you are trying to lose weight. This is not because the fruit is magical in and by itself but more likely because of the high nutritional value. There are some cultures in the world that believe that being overweight is actually a sign of malnutrition and they may be right. Giving your body optimum nutrition is always beneficial if you are trying to lose weight.

2008 SEC Championship Game: Florida Stuns Alabama

By Ross Everett

The Florida Gators rampage through the SEC reached its culmination with a 31-20 victory over #1 ranked Alabama in the conference championship game. This victory set the stage for the Gators' appearance in the National Championship Game.

The Gators struck first, taking a 7-0 lead on a three yard Tim Tebow TD pass to Carl Moore. The Crimson Tide quickly counterpunched, tying the score on an eighteen yard run by Glen Coffee and taking their first lead of the game at 10-7 several minutes later on a 30 yard FG by Leigh Tiffin. Florida responded in the second quarter, tying the game on a Jonathan Phillips 19 yard FG and taking a 17-10 lead into the halftime break on another Tebow TD pass, this one to David Nelson from five yards out. Alabama regained the momentum in the third quarter, tying the score on a 2 yard Mark Ingram touchdown run and then regaining the lead at 20-17 in the final seconds of the period on another Tiffin field goal. Florida put them down for the count in the fourth, however, on a 1 yard Jeffrey Demps TD run followed by Tebows third touchdown strike of the day.

As was the case so often during 2008, Tim Tebow was the big star for the Gators. The junior QB had 216 yards passing with 3 TDs and no interceptions plus fifty seven yards on the ground. Florida head coach Urban Meyer praised Tebow effusively in his post game comments:

"I've had some great players, and I've got some great players on this team. But I've never had one like this. Tim's got something special inside him. I'm not talking about throwing. I'm not talking about running. I'm talking about making everyone around him better. That fourth quarter was vintage Tim Tebow.

Alabama coach Nick Saban concurred:

"He's a great competitor. He takes his teammates on his shoulders a lot. They have a lot of confidence he's going to make plays, and they play that way. They scored two touchdowns where we had them covered about as well as we could cover them."

The conventional wisdom is that the Gators are a speed and finesse team, but according to cornerback Joe Haden the world has underestimated their toughness:

"Our team is a tough team. The only reason they look past our toughness is our speed. They said we were a speed team and they were a tough team. We're just as tough. We can still be pretty and fast and tough at the same time."

Even in defeat, it was impossible to overlook the remarkable resurgance of Alabama football. In only two years at the helm, Nick Saban has amassed a 19-7 record at Alabama with no signs of slowing down.
