Some day soon I hope to be able to say. GMO crops in the USA was a dark chapter in our food history that thankfully is no more a reality, but something that we need to remember so as not to repeat these mistakes again.
This documentary is really a great watch and the best thing I’ve seen come down the pipeline since Food Inc. I am not sure when this was made, but I believe it was some time in 2012. By the time you see this post, Obama, if he did the right thing, will have vetoed the HR 933 that had a completely unrelated ‘Monsanto Protection Act’ slipped in there.
And now, Genetic Roullette:
When man thinks he can play God, the result is a major drag. Just because we have the scientific knowledge and ability to do something doesn’t mean we SHOULD do that thing.
**UPDATE**
I regret to inform you that late Tuesday night, March 27, 2013 President Barack Obama signed H.R. 933, which contained the Monsanto Protection Act into law. President NObama knowingly signed the Monsanto Protection Act over the urgent pleas of more than 250,000 Americans who asked that he use his executive authority to veto it. President Obama failed to live up to his oath to protect the American people and our constitution. I am so not surprised, just disappointed.
He’s back again this year with another quick and easy recipe for a clover inspired drink. This time he’s left the alcohol on the shelf (or so he said) and has decided to offer something more healthy and energizing for those of us looking for a natural long lasting energy boost.
Super Green Power Fuel Gogo Juice
Super Green Power Fuel Gogo Juice (inventor – terry p carter)
Here’s the recipe:
Personally I think it tastes better chilled. If you like a much stronger flavor and need more fuel (calories) you can add a second scoop of Performance. This ups it to ~200 calories and is more in line with the suggested use of the product as normally you would only use 8oz of water per scoop, not 16oz, which is why the way I make it tends to make it watered down.
Also remember when using my favorite high altitude remedy/oxygen booster product, Chloroxygen, that you go slow with this if you haven’t used it before. If you don’t, don’t say I didn’t warn you when your poop looks like a cow used your toilet.
Chloroxygen is USA grown and manufactured by Herbs Etc. It is organic, GMO-free, pesticide-free and BSE safe.
Consider this: over 60% of the dietary supplement ingredients currently come from China. Herbs Etc. is American, family run organic business.
YOUTUBE’s auto transcriber is hilarious – it didn’t do such a good job on my video. I feel bad for the hearing impaired… Oh wait, I mean deaf people.:
Laminine was recently showcased on American Health Journal in select markets around the USA This month of July 2012.
Also features Kevin Sorbo of Hercules and Andromeda TV show fame and how Laminine has helped him. I did not know before this that Kevin Sorbo had had a stroke back in the 1990s when he was still shooting Hercules in New Zealand.

Well well well well well . . . . It seems like a mental enema is in store here.
fall down seven, get up eight
Japanese Proverb – seems appropriate.
I’ve been a naughty, neglectful boy with my passion blog.
Started getting back in the swing of things back in May only to let the entire month of June slip on by. ”Buh-bye” people must’ve thought. For shame
So a good old fashioned BLOG PEE seemed appropriate here to start up again. I’m surprised my bladder didn’t burst. (actually i was relieving myself in the sink)
As it’s america’s birthday this weekend…. again… #235 – boy is she gettin’ old eh?
Bet you wished you look this good at that age….. hell, bet you wish you could reach that age – HA!
What better time to brush up on your RIGHTS (while you still have them!)
BILL OF RIGHTS [|||] U.S. CONSTITUTION
It’s summertime!
So the 2nd half of 2011 has begun. Time to start a new ritual?Trend? whatever you call it…. How about:
Take a moment this weekend to reflect upon the first half of the year and see what you’ve accomplished and whether you are on track with your goals. Maybe you have new goals – i know i do. Maybe you fulfilled some, maybe others are getting cold and moldy on the back burner – salvage them if you want, or throw them out and make room for NEW.
I have been cleaning out my physical environment to create more clarity and focus for myself. It feels good to purge yourself of old things that you no longer want or need. Nostalgia and the What-If creatures try to sneak into your psyche to get you to reconsider letting go of your STUFF. But then Rationalization and Practicality double-team them and counter with the ideas of “you can’t take it with you”,” it’s holding you back” and ”it’s weighing you down.”
Ok, I realize this is normally slotted for an Eff-En-Eff, so here’s 2 mini-videos of UFOs over LONDON that were aired recently. Quite intriguing. Now I’ll keep my opinions to myself as I’m not an expert on analyzing real vs. fake. The fact that these two I found are taken in totally different parts of the city makes it seem a bit more convincing.
However, an observation is in store here. Why is it that UFOs always seem to move like UFOs? The triangle formation, the radical changes in direction and speed. The odd way the larger disc rotates and spins slowly. And so on.
Finally – cause I got work 2 do, I’ll blog more about this later, but time is of the essence.
There are blenders and then there is IMO, THE World’s Best Blender, ever. The one and only BLENDTEC. Even better, it can be purchased with FREE SHIPPING all during the month of JULY, 2011.
So my question to you is, Will It Blend, Punk?

- – - You Might Be A Zombie if …you don’t realize we’ve been living in a Zombie Apocalypse for several years now.
Yes, I am probably starting a new meme here, but it dawned on me that the way most people go through their lives, they sure have an awful lot of zombie tendencies and traits… remember, kill the brain and run away – the lactic acid build up in reanimated dead tissue causes them to stop ‘dead’ in their tracks fairly quickly.
In case you haven’t figured it out yet, healthy lifestyle is part of my thing.
This documentary came out November 13, 2007 according to the info on Hulu - less than 4 years ago as of this posting. However, when checking out the history of the film on it’s OWN website, I found this:
The Future of Food has been a key tool in the American and international anti-GMO grassroots activist movements and played widely in the environmental and activist circuits since its release in 2004. The film is widely acknowledged for its role in educating voters and the subsequent success of passing Measure H in Mendocino County, California, one of the first local initiatives in the country to ban the planting of GMO crops. Indicative of its popularity, the Future of Food showed to a sold out audience of 1,500 at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco in 2004, a benefit for Slow Food, where it was introduced by Alice Waters. [source]
Like Food Inc. and The World According To Monsanto, it is an eye opener for many as to what’s being done to our food supply. Remember, knowledge is power and ignorance breeds complacency and allows for ease of control. Keep informed!
The Future Of Food offers an in-depth investigation into the disturbing truth behind engineered foods that have quietly filled U.S. grocery store shelves for the past decade
Enjoy the film:

April Fools Day All Ya Pranksters
I’m bringing back the EffEnEff – aka Friday Night Film or Friday Night Funny – whichever fits the bill.
Tonight I share two TED Talks that I like – most of them are sooo good it’s hard to choose just one.
Number one is Jamie Oliver and his Food Revolution movement.
Sharing powerful stories from his anti-obesity project in Huntington, W. Va., TED Prize winner Jamie Oliver makes the case for an all-out assault on our ignorance of food.
Number two is Magician David Blaine explaining how he was able to hold his breath for 17 minutes
breaking the world record – and what his often death-defying work means to him.
For more inspiring TED talks, you can visit their site where you can even download
talks for free to your computer or mobile phone. Now that’s good brain food.
I wanted to add an update on the benefits of the supplement ChlorOxygen.
First off, what the heck is Chlorophyll?
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in plants that harnesses the sun’s energy in photosynthesis. Chlorophyll performs metabolic functions in plants such as respiration and growth.
OK, so why would I, who am NOT a plant, want to take it?
Well, if any of the following apply to you, that’s why:
This is a link to my personal story
SO WHAT’s the best brand to take and where do I buy it?
PURCHASE ChlorOxygen Regular
BUY ChlorOxygen Mint
Each ounce of Herb’s Etc. Chlorophyll Concentrate contains as much Chlorophyll as one or two 16 ounce bottles of other brands. Each ounce contains approximately 2,950 milligrams of Chlorophyll.
What makes ChlorOxygen Chlorophyll Concentrate such an awesome product?
SUGGESTED Use: Each 36-drop dose delivers 100 milligrams of Chlorophyll Concentrate. Take 18-36 drops twice a day in 8 ounces of water.
Caution: Dark green stools may occur. I have found this to be true when taking it for the first time or when I haven’t taken any in a while and consuming the maximum daily suggested amount. However, the body seems to acclimate to this after a day or two and that side effect tends to diminish.
I first discovered this product while visiting Santa Fe, New Mexico for the first time. Coming from sea level in Florida to 7000 feet in the mountains didn’t seem like a big deal immediately. Arriving in the AM and hitting the ground running, it didn’t hit me or my friend until the afternoon. Shortness of breath, headache, nausea and the feeling she was going to pass out was my friend’s reaction. I was mainly just a little winded and had a mild headache. We were both feeling the effects of high altitude sickness due to less oxygen in the air than we were accustomed to.
Long story short, we were introduced to Chloroxygen at a local health food store and it was a life saver becoming an instant new favorite in my supplemental arsenal. An added benefit that has me using the stuff daily even in Florida is the energy boost it gives me. It’s a great alternative to energy drinks if you’re like me and don’t care for them. Unlike coffee or other caffeinated beverages, the chloroxygen gives me a nice consistent boost in energy level and alertness.
You should be able to find Chloroxygen at your local health food store, but I have found iHerb.com to be a better deal all around. WHY iHerb.com?
If you are planning on a trip to the mountains for snow boarding, hiking or skiing or simple traveling to a high elevation from a low one – like Florida – and you want to acclimate instantly to the higher elevation, Chloroxygen is the ticket. For me, I would use the old Amex phrase, “Don’t leave home without it.” Even if I’m not going to the mountains, bringing a bottle of chloroxygen with me to give me energy when traveling is a must.
Chloroxygen offers 3 ways to take it: it comes in liquid drop form both regular and mint as well as capsules. It is alcohol and preservative free and doesn’t require refrigeration. More pluses in my book!
Even more PLUSES:
Made from stinging nettle leaves, just 36 drops in 8 to 16 oz of water or liquid gives you 100mg of chlorophyll.
The one ounce bottle has about 66 servings at 18 drops per serving. The bottle is about $10 bucks @ iHerb.com and with the coupon code IHE882, you save another $5.00. Store prices run around 12-15 dollars by comparison.
Some other insights I can share with Chloroxygen are:

A friend of mine has a really cool company called EcoBold. She has a popular YoutTube channel and website that encourages and educates people about the importance of going green and buying from companies that are not destroying the planet in the process.
Recently, she posted this hilarious video that shows off just how funny she is and how you can have fun and be entertaining while touting the virtues of living a healthy lifestyle.
