Downturn hits porn industry

Recently found a very interesting link, see what could happened during recession time.

At the Adult Entertainment Expo, the annual confab that runs concurrently with the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, there were fewer exhibitors, fewer fans and a lot less glitz.

According to a rep for Adult Video News, which runs the show, the exhibitor count was down about 18% from last year. Attendance by fans -- who are admitted on some days of the show, with the rest open to industry pros only -- wasn’t set to be tallied until after the event was finished, but is likely down as well.

Company History 4: Coca - Cola


History
It all began in 1886 when John Pemberton, a pharmacist from the city of Atlanta, created a drink that would become one of the greatest symbols of corporate world. This Creation of Pemberton was very much motivated by a sense of curiosity. The pharmacist used to experiment his medical formulas to find a cure for a headache. One day he mixed his syrup with soda and offered it to his customers, who consider it as a very special drink. Soon the product was a put for sale for $ 0.05. Frank Robinson, Pemberton accountant, coined the term Coca-Cola, writing the name with his own calligraphy.
The official date of birth of the product was on May 8, 1886. In the early years were sold approximately 9 cups (237 ml) per day. Unfortunately, Pemberton was more an inventor than a businessman. Without having the slightest idea that his invention would be a worldwide success, in 1891 he sold the company to Asa Griggs Candler, for approximately $ 2,300.00. Candler became the first president of the company and the first to give visibility to the real business and brand. Asa Candler, a born salesman, made the Coca-Cola a simple invention into a big business. And found creative ways to present the brightest new drink: distributed coupons to encourage people to try the product and the pharmaceutical supplied with clocks, scales and calendars with the Coca-Cola.

By 1895, Candler had built factories in the cities of Chicago, Dallas and Los Angeles. The popularity of the condenser required new forms of presentations that allowed more people to enjoy it. In 1894, Joseph B. Whitehead, put the drinks in a bottle and gave Candler, it was not very enthusiastic about the news. Despite being a businessman innovative and brilliant, could not imagine at the time that the secret of the success of Coca-Cola would be in portable bottles that consumers can take anywhere. So five years later in 1899, for just $ 1, he sold the exclusive rights to bottle and sells the drink to lawyers Benjamin F. Thomas and Joseph B. Whitehead.

Mint-O-Fresh ka ‘Jiggi-jikka’


Continuing with their Laila Majnu theme latest ad of ITC’s Minto Fresh is an attempt to reinterpret the style of village romance with the urban rural dynamic.

Shot on location in Hampi, Karnataka, the ad opens on the local thakur-ka-beta arriving with his associates, carrying with them lots of gifts. But our Laila is not much impressed with all this drama.
Then enter Mr. Majnu, having a halo around his head – and above all a Minto Fresh in his hand. He pops it, breathes out, and a magical stream of freshness towards Laila. Who takes one deep breath – and launches herself towards Majnu, sending the thakur, his men and all the gifts flying in a slow motion into the air. As he drives him off in his (again gaudily painted) scooter, the Hindi cinema takeoff story is complete...
