L'eggs
L'eggs is a brand of pantyhose introduced in 1969 by Hanes. The hosiery placed its product in white plastic oversized chicken-egg-shaped containers. In a time when hosiery products were sold primarily in department and women's clothing stores, L'eggs garnered shelf space in supermarkets and drugstores, often on revolving carousel L'eggs displays called the "L'eggs Boutique". The product's slogan, "Our L'eggs fit your legs", appeared in print and TV ads.
Henry Hate
Hate migrated to London in 1998 where he worked in Soho. It was there that he cultivated his professional nickname Henry Hate. He opened his own tattoo parlour in Shoreditch, aptly named Prick!, in 2002, where he is currently based. In March 2009, "The Sun" ran a cover story on Henry Hate without his consent, revealing Hate's personal and private information on the back of Amy Winehouse's then tabloid troubles. This action allowed other news wire agencies to pick the story up again without his consent. Soon after, "The Sun" removed the article from its web archive. The case was settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. In 2010, Hate was hired by Nissan Motors to launch the Nissan Cube due to both their controversial profiles, creating the world's first "Ice Tattoo". Henry has also collaborated on several high-profile projects that saw him having his work turned into chocolate with Belgian , and collaborate with fashion photographer Nick Knight.
HanseYachts
In the wake of the financial crisis 2007–2008, the boating industry was affected by a massive slump in global sales. The company's turnover dropped by 57% within one year. A period of high losses began. In 2011, founder Michael Schmidt sold his stake to German Investmentholding "Aurelius SE", Munich, and left the company. At the end of 2012, HanseYachts closed the "Dehler" factory in Freienohl and relocated the entire "Dehler" production to its lamination factory in Goleniów and its main factory in Greifswald. In 2013, HanseYachts parent company "Aurelius SE" purchased the English "Sealine" brand (motor yachts) together with plans, moulds, parts lists and equipment. In 2014, HanseYachts started to produce "Sealine" yachts.
Bartle Bogle Hegarty
Beyond Levi's, the company has also been responsible for creating iconic long-running campaigns for other global brands, such as "" for Audi which Sir John Hegarty coined in 1984, "The Lynx Effect" for Unilever which propelled the male body spray into the number one spot globally and "Keep Walking" for Johnnie Walker which bought the brand sales up from 13% of the global market when the campaign broke in 2000, to over 20% at the end of 2013 according to IWSR.

Roger Ferriter
Roger Ferriter is a graphic designer most renowned as the progenitor of the L'eggs name, logo and packaging design (the L'eggs egg and egg-shaped dispenser). Although the concept was initially considered 'a marketing risk' by the board members at Hanes back in 1969, the risk turned into a multibillion-dollar enterprise. During the 1970s and 80's the L'eggs egg became a ubiquitous part of the culture, once referred to as the 'marketing breakthrough of the 20th Century.'
Kokanee beer
Kokanee started life as a niche brand by attempting to appeal with only radio ads to the residents of the interior of British Columbia with the slogan, "Brewed right in the Kootenays". After Labatt bought the Columbia Brewery in 1974, they hired the advertising agency WestCan later to be known as Scali McCabe Sloves whose Vancouver office produced a number of humorous radio and then international award-winning TV campaigns introducing "The Sasquatch", including, for instance,(and still under the name WestCan at the time) 2 IBA's for TV. Two International Broadcast Awards and both introducing the legendary Sasquatch trademark and this success in TV to then take the brand to market domination and peak with a 30% plus brand share in 1986. These Sasquatch ads also were featured on the NBC "Tonight Show" as samples of the "World's Best". Other later efforts included a mock documentary showing Kokanee bottles migrating up a stream like salmon. These helped the brand become the market leader with a share of 17% in 1992. The Sasquatch 25 years later still a critical trademark for this effective branding.
Underoos

The product idea was first offered to Hanes, but was rejected. Scott Paper company pursued development, but ultimately decided to not market the product. Fruit of the Loom had been engaged as supplier of the blank underwear and another vendor engaged to apply transfers. Informed of Scott Paper Company's decision to not market this novel product, Fruit of the Loom inquired if they would be permitted to market the product, now fully developed. Weiss agreed, and in 1978 Fruit of the Loom bought Underoos. The product was tested in three markets including the New York Metropolitan area. Retailer and consumer demand was so strong, the product was immediately expanded to national distribution. Fruit of the Loom has licensed out the Underoos brand name to Bioworld, which is currently making Underoos in adult sizes.

History of the Han dynasty
Starting in 139 BCE, the Han diplomat Zhang Qian traveled west in an unsuccessful attempt to secure an alliance with the Da Yuezhi (who were evicted from Gansu by the Xiongnu in 177 BCE); however, Zhang's travels revealed entire countries which the Chinese were unaware of, the remnants of the conquests of Alexander the Great (r. 336–323 BCE). When Zhang returned to China in 125 BCE, he reported on his visits to Dayuan (Fergana), Kangju (Sogdiana), and Daxia (Bactria, formerly the Greco-Bactrian Kingdom which was subjugated by the Da Yuezhi). Zhang described Dayuan and Daxia as agricultural and urban countries like China, and although he did not venture there, described Shendu (the Indus River valley of northern India) and Anxi (Arsacid territories) further west. Envoys sent to these states returned with foreign delegations and lucrative trade caravans; yet even before this, Zhang noted that these countries were importing Chinese silk. After interrogating merchants, Zhang also discovered a southwestern trade route leading through Burma and on to India. The earliest known Roman glassware found in China (but manufactured in the Roman Empire) is a glass bowl found in a Guangzhou tomb dating to the early 1st century BCE and perhaps came from a maritime route passing through the South China Sea. Likewise, imported Chinese silk attire became popular in the Roman Empire by the time of Julius Caesar (100–44 BCE).

The first model "Hanse 291" (which based on the design of the "Aphrodite 291") was launched in 1993. In the years to come, the company successively extended the model range and grew rapidly. In the late 1990s, HanseYachts and the yacht designers "Judel/Vrolijk & Co" started their still existing collaboration. In 2003, the range comprised eight models up to 53  ft.

In the 1970s, the newspaper-dominated company further diversified its holdings by purchasing the WAIM radio and TV stations in Anderson as part of its purchase of the "Independent" and "Mail", as well as television stations in Jacksonville, Florida, Greensboro, North Carolina, and Springfield, Missouri. In 1978, Harte Hanks bought radio stations formerly owned by Southern Broadcasting. In 1980, the company's broadcast holdings were four television stations, 11 radio stations and four cable television systems. It sold off most of these assets in the mid-1980s to pay down debt incurred in the leveraged buyout that took the company private.

The new name caused trademark problems, because it was already registered in most European countries by Hugo Boss, while ITE A/S were first in Denmark and Portugal and could potentially stop Hugo Boss from launching any products in these markets. Eventually, both companies made a coexistence agreement with the help of the ITE in-house lawyer Nina Wium.

However, as of "Vilosophe" (2003) and "How the World Came to an End" (2007) the band completely changed its sound to a hybrid of jazz, trip hop, electronica and metal with clean sung vocals and many progressive overtones.

Economy of the Han dynasty
During the early Western Han period, founding Emperor Gaozu of Han (r. 202–195 BC) closed government mints in favor of coin currency produced by the private sector. Gaozu's widow Empress Lü Zhi, as grand empress dowager, abolished private minting in 186 BC. She first issued a government-minted bronze coin weighing , but issued another, weighing , in 182 BC. The change to the lighter coin caused widespread inflation, so in 175 BC Emperor Wen of Han (r. 180–157 BC) lifted the ban on private minting; private mints were required to mint coins weighing exactly . Private minting was again abolished in 144 BC during the end of Emperor Jing of Han's (r. 157–141 BC) reign.
