Ball Corporation, originally Ball Brothers Glass Manufacturing Company, is an American company famous for producing glass canning jars. Founded in 1880, it is currently headquartered in Broomfield, Colorado. The company has expanded into other areas such as avionics, space systems, metal beverage and food containers and aluminum aerosol containers. Ball is the largest producer of recyclable beverage cans in the world. The company exited the home canning business in 1993 by spinning it off into a separate company, Alltrista (since renamed Jarden).
In 1880, Frank C. and Edmund B. Ball, two of the five Ball brothers of fruit jar fame, borrowed $200 from their Uncle George Harvey Ball, founder and first president of Keuka College, to buy the Wooden Jacket Can Company (years later the brothers would reciprocate by providing financial support to their uncle's college). The wooden jackets encased tin cans which held kerosene. Because the acid used to refine kerosene caused corrosion in tin, the brothers decided to use glass for the inserts of the wood-jacketed cans. Initially, they bought the glass containers from a factory in Poughkeepsie, New York.

Plot: The right of every individual to be different from his fellow men is the theme behind this internationally-hailed, British production. The story tells of a man's dilemma when he refused to participate in an unofficial strike, where he works. While vicious, calculated violence brings the other dissenters into line, he goes it alone and is sent to Coventry (given the silent treatment) by his fellow workers. A stirring, thought-provoking film that portrays the human problems and high emotions generated when a man dares to act on the courage of his convictions and dares fight to keep his individual freedom.

Watched this video for a business class over the summer and felt it was a very educational video about why Ball Corporation is very successful. Ball Corp makes containers for people like Pespi, Miller Light, Coors Light, and others I didn't see this video online other than from my student hub where I watched it, so please forgive me if this is not allowed Ball Corporation.
If she knew it right
She wasn't well
That's what she told her future self
She checked into a big hotel
Confused into a freezing hell
Steal the tones
Lazy bones
If music beat
The food I eats
Lunch and dinner and techno beats
Paper cuts from the plastic sheets
Are filling up on the salty sweets
Steal the tones
Lazy bones
Aaaahhhhh
It's called your teddy black
Aaaahhhhh
And we don't want you back
