Optimum D-Tox

For those interested in health issues--from staying healthy to dealing with severe and degenerative diseases, I produced a 30 minute video on a product that will start national advertising on TV on about the second week of March 2010. It's called Optimum D-Tox, a 100% extract of the Mohave Yucca. It is produced by a man who was the first ever (back in the 80s) to produce a Yucca extract for human consumption. That product (along with another that it worked synergistically with) was tested by the Chinese government and, after a 5 year study, was given full import rights for China--unprecedented to this day. No other western-based herbal remedy has ever been approved for import into China--a country that has been practicing herbal medicine for over 4000 years.

What caught the attention of the Chinese was the nature of debilitating diseases that these products were successful at (shall we say) eliminating.

The video goes over the history of the product, where it comes from, what's in it that works so well to balance the human body, and some testimonials from doctors and regular folk that give some small idea of the successes that they've had--from allergies, immune system deficiencies, acid reflux, arthritis and more.

This video is for the national re-release of the first of the two products the Chinese tested (Optimum D-Tox), though the second product (Esseniac) is also available.

Optimum D-Tox is amazing all by itself. The two together are even more amazing.

They're also very inexpensive.

Further, Optimum D-Tox (for reasons evident in the video) acts to make ANY OTHER SUPPLEMENT more effective. Naturally, the same goes for the intake of good food.  And, if you eat crap like I do sometimes, it helps eliminate the problems associated with that as well.

Not that one should eat crap if one wants to be truly healthy.  Indeed, its the crap we eat and the poisons we breathe and ingest, that start the downward spiral of ill-health to begin with.

What Optimum D-Tox does is put the body in a better posture to be able to get rid of the accumulated poisons, toxins and start to nourish and rebuild the weakened systems that are innately designed to keep the body healthy in the first place. It's the myriad of systems in the body itself that do the "curing", not the drugs or supplements.

But this one supplement, may be the mother of them all.

For those with "metabolism problems", digestive problems, irregularity, fungus problems, arthritic problems, "acid reflux" problems, allergies, proneness to cold and flu--and a host of other weird degenerative conditions, WATCH THE VIDEO!

Personal Video Biographies

Some years ago I worked for a non-profit and had the opportunity to travel across the world. Of all the types of videos I produced, my favorite became BIOGRAPHIES.

We were often dispatched to some part of the world to do a documentary on some individual who was doing extraordinary things. News of such individuals usually came from others, and from these news and reports a script treatment would be put together. While the existing research and scripting seemed to portray, well enough, an extraordinary story, I soon found that the news and reports that generated the interest in a project and the subsequent research and scripting usually barely scratched the surface.

You see, as I was to discover, these "extraordinary" people didn't think of themselves that way. The "extraordinary" things they did were, to themselves, quite ordinary. So ordinary, in fact, that below the surface of what other people knew about them and may have passed along, were some amazing details that nobody knew--and I eventually learned how to uncover them...

The Resurgence of Art

The earlier article on the degradation of art may have seemed a bit grim.

Perhaps so.

But life can be grim and rose colored glasses won't change its essence.

Yet "The Degradation of the Arts"  wasn't written without the intent to follow it up.  It was a statement of the problem.  Not a gleeful, spectatorish, nothing-to-do-with-me commentary so typical of the mainstream media. It wasn't written as a doomsday prediction or as an epitaph for this current civilization either.

It was written as an observation of something to confront.

The first step of being able to handle anything is the ability and willingness to confront what it is in the first place.  If a man with a gun and murder in his eyes bursts into your bedroom at 2am and you rationalize that he must be a policeman on his way home and just got confused about his address, you're not likely going to handle that situation very well. It might also be the last situation you ever fail to confront.

So if societies are perverted in large part through a degradation of the arts, by turning the arts into vehicles for re-defining social mores and values--in other words by using the arts for propaganda to popularize and eventually "normalize" all aberrant behavior, then the antidote must be the sum of all actions that serve to popularize true art...

The Sport of Exporting from Final Cut Express to YouTube

I can't be the only one who's had nightmares doing this. I mean spending countless HOURS exporting movies from Final Cut Express to the great YouTube Engine in the Sky with variations close to the near infinite possibilities available in search of the magic combination that crunches gigabytes into dust without turning your movie into mud.

Reminds me of the true story of some young aircraft engineer who wanted to know the meaning of the "PFM module" in the Boeing 747 blueprints. No one knew. But years later he tracked down an old engineer who could tell him what PFM stood for: Pure Fucking Magic.

So here we have the PFM module of the Mac exporting to the PFM module of YouTube and only God and his Super Geek Consultants know what happens in the mix.

Well, evidently God and the Geeks were replaced by Google.  Thank god...

Degradation of the Arts

This is an expansion on the little statement there at the top of the blog:



ANY GOLDEN AGE IS PRECEDED BY A RESURGENCE OF THE ARTS, JUST AS ANY DARK AGE IS PRECEDED BY A DEGRADATION OF THE ARTS.



The first real Golden Age on Earth was the Golden Age of Greece, also known as "The Age of Pericles", the leader at the time. We all know there was a huge resurgence of art in many genres. But it was also a time of peace and abundance for the inhabitants of Greece. Pericles was a benevolent leader and government served its proper purpose, unperverted by corruption and greed.

The Roman Empire followed on its heels and was the longest surviving civilization on earth to this day. 

But Rome crumbled and collapsed under criminal and perverted leadership at the top tiers of government.  In the latter days of the Roman Empire, the restless population was quelled with free "Corn and Games", i.e. free food and death battles in the arena.  Next time you watch "Gladiator", notice the scene where a food-laden cart is moved through the arena as the food is being tossed up into the crowd.



I'm not a historian, so correct me if you will, but these are broad strokes to make an observation that probably isn't in the history books...
