As I have emphasized before, we can live without fat or carbohydrate but protein is essential. We can make carbohydrate and some fats out of the digestion of protein. In addition there are some amino acids which are essential for health. Lack of any one of them leads to problems:
Cysteine—essential for producing glutathione
Isoleucine
Leucine
Lysine
Methionine
Phenylalanine
Threonine
Tryptophan
Tyrosine
Valine
Most knowledgeable scientists also consider TAURINE essential, as many adults cannot convert methionine to taurine. Taurine is critical for regulating cell membrane potential. It is essential for the retina and is also critical for heart function, where it represents 60% of total free amino acid content of the heart.
It also:
Is crucial for bile production
Lowers blood pressure
Is an antioxidant
Enhances immune function
Strengthens the heart
Protects against diabetes
Helps in treatment of congestive heart failure
Is essential to prevent seizures
Why all this info just on taurine? It is deficient in 86% of depressed patients and most who have epilepsy! AND THERE IS NO TAURINE IN ANY VEGETABLE OR FRUIT!!! Pay attention vegans!
All vegans will ultimately wind up deficient in taurine and B 12. Only animal protein contains taurine! Whey Protein Isolate is one of the best sources of taurine. I most strongly recommend it for vegans.
For this and many other reasons, I favor WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE (WPI), which is an all around super nutritional supplement. It contains all the essential amino acids plus taurine, is 99% pure protein, with less than 1% carbohydrate and no fat. Two scoops a day will prevent anyone from becoming deficient in any essential amino acid or taurine.
WPI is undoubtedly the best single source of high quality protein. Only people allergic to milk protein need be concerned about taking it. Indeed, well over 75% of the time my lunch consists of a slush of two bananas, a scoop of WPI, a few strawberries and a little half and half.
WPI is terrific for a low calorie, high quality food. It is often used by body builders as it is an excellent source of branched chain amino acids, essential for muscle synthesis.
A slush such as I mentioned, and it can be made with any fruit, is FAR superior to any of the canned junk so often used in individuals with weight loss, poor appetite, etc!

Thank you, Norm, for being an inspiration
for me, my patients, and the rest of mankind.
In our sixth show, Dr. Andrew Colyer addresses how to look at the many factors
associated with neck pain, and the importance of finding a quality practitioner
who can help you. Included are suggested
resources and links for your help and support.
There is usually not any one thing that causes anything.
Everything is connected to everything, and anything can cause anything.
Most health care problems are multifactoral,
and the “cookie cutter” approach doesn’t usually work very well.
Use the clinical scientific tool of muscle testing and kinesiology
to help assess and treat your specific problems!
In our fifth show, Dr. Andrew Colyer discusses the challenges
associated with Self Muscle Testing, and the importance of
remaining emotionally detached. Included are suggested
resources and links if you are having emotional issues or problems,
and need help and support.
We also introduced our new motto!
(You’ll have to watch the show to find out what it is.)
The first live seminar I ever went to that was specifically for Internet Marketing was in Anaheim California, at Stu McLaren’s Idea Incubator in February 2006.
I tend to sit towards the front of the room at these seminars, so that I can really focus on the speakers and take good notes.
Across the aisle from me was a couple who were asking a lot of questions, and it was obvious from the questions that they were asking that they were real thinkers who cared about their clients, and that they weren’t here to just find out how to make a bunch of money.
It was obvious that this husband and wife team was used to actually having relationships with their customers, and that their interaction with them was NOT, as one “guru” has put it, “to extract as much money as possible from the wallets of their customers”.
I found out that this wonderful couple had both been practicing psychotherapy for many years (hence the relationships with their clients), and they only lived about an hour from us in upstate New York!
Over the years, Melanie and I have gotten to know Judith & Jim quite well, participating in their “Soft Topic Copywriting” course, and spending time together with them socially.
We all agree that many people in the Health Care field, or other “soft” business fields like artists, don’t benefit from trying to use “hard-sell” approaches for their customers.
Not only does that “hard-sell” method not work for our type of customers, it actually offends many of them, and seeing that type of advertising sends them running in the other direction.
If you are a practitioners in the healing arts, an artist, a business person who has real relationships with your customers, or someone who just doesn’t like the “old-school” method of “beating people over the head with your marketing”, then you need this new book on the subject of soft sell marketing.
What Jon Stewart says in this video is exactly what I have been saying
for the past eight years, and people have been looking at me
like I was a complete idiot.
Now Jon Stewart says it, and he’s getting applause.
It just goes to show you that it’s about timing. (And also if you have your own TV show.)
In order to get what you want, you must first decide what you want.
Most people really foul up at this crucial first step because they simply can’t see how it’s possible to get what they want — so they don’t even let themselves want it.
What scientists now know about how the brain works is that you must first decide the ‘WHAT’ before your brain can figure out the ‘HOW’. Once you lock-in your desires, your mind and the universe can step in.
Are you ready to get started?
STEP 1: Decide to Dream BIG and Be Willing to Dream BIG Dreams
Big dreams not only inspire you, but they also compel others to want to play big, too. Don’t think you should only dream big during economic heydays. Dream big every day, especially during tough times.
As soon as you commit to a big dream and really go after it, your subconscious creative mind will come up with big ideas to make it happen. You’ll start attracting the people, resources, and opportunities you need into your life to make your dream come true.
STEP 2: Set Goals That Will Stretch You
Another value in giving yourself permission to go after the big dreams is that big dreams require you to grow in order to achieve them. In fact, in the long run, this is the greatest benefit you will receive from pursuing your dreams — not so much the outer trappings of fulfilling the dream (an expensive car, impressive house, loads of money and philanthropic opportunities), but who you become in the process.
As I’ve seen many times over, the outer symbols of success can all be easily lost. Houses burn down, companies go bankrupt, relationships end, cars get old, bodies age and fame wanes, but who you are, what you have learned, and the new skills you have developed never go away. These are the true prizes of success.
STEP 3: Service to Others
As you pinpoint what you want to go after, think about how you can be of service to others. When your dreams include this element, you’ll find yourself speeding along the path to accomplishing that goal. People want to be part of something that contributes and makes a difference.
STEP 4: Turn Your Dreams into Goals and Objectives
Once you are clear about what you want, you must turn each item into a measurable goal. By measurable, I mean measurable in space and time, how much and by when. Don’t just say that you want to lose weight, for instance. Be specific, push yourself to higher limits, and set dates. Say something like, “I want to lose 50 pounds by summer and participate in my community’s 10K for charity by the 4th of July.”
Similarly, your boss, your friends, your spouse, your brain — God, the Universe — can’t figure out what you want unless you specifically tell them what it is.
What do you want — exactly – and when do you want it by?
Step 5: Write Your Goals Down
Write your goals down in detail, and read your list of goals every day. This will keep your subconscious mind focused on what you want. For an even more powerful approach, close your eyes and focus on each goal and ask yourself, “What is one thing I could do today to move toward the achievement of this goal?” Write down your answers and take those actions.
I recommend writing down a minimum of 3 goals in each of the following 7 areas:
1. Financial Goals
2. Career/Business Goals
3. Free Time/Family Time
4. Health/Appearance Goals
5. Relationship Goals
6. Personal Growth
7. Making a Difference

Wikipedia says, “A Rube Goldberg machine is a deliberately
overengineered apparatus that performs a very simple task
in a very indirect and convoluted fashion.”
They sure are fun, aren’t they? Honda constructed one for a
commercial and it’s posted on Youtube. It’s 2 minutes long
and a joy to watch:
Isn’t that incredible? How the heck did they do that?
You may pride yourself on the ability to
juggle multiple tasks, said Jon Hamilton
in NPR.com But MIT researchers say
your multitasking is a myth.
You might think you’re doing two things at once,
but in fact you’re just switching attention
from one thing to the next very quickly,
says Earl Miller, a professor of neuroscience
at MIT.
Because similiar tasks compete for resources
from the same part of the brain, one task always wins.
“Think about writing an e-mail and talking on the phone
at the same time,” says Miller.

California is America's main immigrant magnet. As people move to and from — and within — the state and the U.S., the music produced by this shifting population is changing. The stories of musicians living and working in Oakland and Los Angeles give a sense of how the future of Latin music might sound.
Commentator Rob Kapilow explains how Copland's pure, American sound springs from two simple chords that open the ballet Appalachian Spring. Stacked upon each other, the chords reveal a sound like all of America, like the purest values, and like Shaker simplicity.
Leonard Bernstein does full justice to the still racy and spontaneous score of Rhapsody In Blue in this 1959 recording. As both conductor and pianist, he brings a smoky, sultry jazziness to the piece.
