Three years ago, my beloved brother who is the most sceptically minded person i have ever known was diagnosed with cancer. After a removal of the tumor and several month of chemotherapy, i am glad to say, he is well. Yet, even now, after his ordeal, his favorite say is ” it came in by itself and it came out by itself, its all in your mind, brother”. There were thousands of reliable studies using double-blind placebo methods by hundreds of medical institutes and universities that seem to prove the later part of his favorite say. “its all in your mind”.
After researching hundreds and hundreds of articles available on this subject on the web and the great believe that our creator made us at his image, i concluded, that the “Dr.House” within us is there, in a form of the immune system were by the mind plays a powerful role. Some might say, old news Jack. That maybe so. The truth of a matters is, that, while all the scholar proponents and equally scholar opponents argue about the issue, somewhere in the middle of this argument there are confused individuals who were told, that their lives as they knew it, have ended.
To Those not so fortunate. Never give up. Try to find a way to wake up “Dr. House” within. If “its all in your mind”, find the stimulus for you mind. For all others, why not never let “him” go to sleep. Nothing really matter if the health is not there. Search and research. I am not a very religious person, but the Genesis 1:27 is a very good point to start. “Dr. House” is within, its all in your mind, find the stimulus.

Friend of mine sent me a copy of the first issue, July 1994 of a magazine she accidentally came across “Cristal of Light”, where for the first time i tried my english writings. please be nice.
For a long time, 14 years, to be exact, I have been suppressing my feelings connected with some fascinating experiences I went through while fishing (commercially) in the South Atlantic, between The Falkland Islands and Antarctica. I had been doing this for just under 5 years. The methods of fishing used by the fleet were barbaric. Needless to say, after awhile one starts to wonder whether one is in the right profession (as if killing could be considered a profession). Let me explain.
Imagine a fishing net in a shape of a sock. The kind of fish caught depends on the size of the net’s eyes. In other words, smaller eyes mean more fish of different sizes. The greed and thoughtlessness of the captain were endless. It was not enough that nets with the smallest eyes were used, but knowing that the catch would be huge, he used three nets set one into another, so it could hold thousands of pounds of fish without breaking. Almost every catch held some 60,000 thousand pounds of fish. Once pulled onto the deck of the ship, the nets looked like a perfectly shaped 60 foot long and 10 foot long diameter tube full of squashed, dead fish. Now imagine a container, the shape of a gas tanker, similar to those you can see on the road, full of dead fish parked in your garden. You and your third generation could have a supply of the fish for the rest of your lives. I shall leave the rest to your imagination.
Having given you some idea of the environment I worked in, I would like to go to the original idea of the article.
First, let us step out of the ship and see what is there … ocean … ocean … and more ocean. Visualize yourself standing on a huge segment of silk with the colors of a rainbow; one of those you see once a lifetime. Whatever direction you look, the nearest point you can see is the horizon. The gracefully waving silk is so big, that to get to the first shore you need six days of sailing. After four months of rocking at sea you look for something else, something different. On one of those days I sat on the upper deck watching the sea hoping to see the “different”.
At this point I have to let you into my heart a bit. I am one of those lucky people who during their lives go through many exciting moments. Unfortunately, immaturity of my spiritual life did not allow me to fully understand, or even be aware of the relevance of those moments and fully appreciate them at the moment of their occurrence. However, (luck again, I suppose) my subconscious felt that those moments should be registered for future reference. Sometimes it takes 5, 10 or more years for the subconscious to recall those events as it decides when our conscious mind is ready to receive them. That’s what happens to me all the time now.
Again, I was lucky to meet some wonderful people who were kind enough to introduce me to different points of view toward life, and more importantly, different points of view towards our home, the Universe. At first it was difficult to see, and believe me, it often still is. Once I started adjusting certain aspects of my prospective, my subconscious suddenly started to recall all the events from the past which it decided were important to me now.
So, let’s go back to “the upper deck” and see what happened. I was watching for the “something else” for hours. When all of a sudden, I started to feel something that could be compared to the “high”, similar the “high” drug addicts feel. I got “goose bumps” all over my body. I did not understand why, because I had another four months at sea before returning home. Going home usualy did it. I looked closely and, there they were. At first I could see one, then two or more black spots miles away from the ship. I did not understand why, but my eyes desperately clenched to those spots as if in fear of loosing them. The “computer” in my head started to match these shapes with any and every shape I might have seen in the past. Nothing. Then, I was overcome by this feeling I had when I was a little boy.
There was a film about a scientist who transplanted his dying son’s lungs with fish lungs, so he could live at the very least, under water. Ever since I had a dream to live under water. FREE!!! And ever since that time I had a strong bond with the water. Besides living at the sea side, I was a life guard, free diver and a yachts man. Freedom to me, was somehow connected with the water. The boy has grown, but the dream is still alive.
The spots disappeared unrecognized. Yet, the feeling of freedom was with me stronger than ever before. I thought I was going mad.It has happened in the past, that sailors thought of the silky sea as of a huge highway and wanting to walk home, stepped out of the board of the ship.
I thought, why? Before I finished wondering what was happening to me, the sea opened up. No further than a hundred feet away from the board of the ship, three graceful (like in slow motion) bodies of Orka the “killer” whale appeared. I was totally ecstatic! I felt like shouting, but I could not. I felt like going down to my cabin for my camera to take pictures, but I could not move. So, speechless and motionless I watched. I watched and wondered, how such huge bodies could jump so high and yet, so gracefully and gently enter the water back again. Again … and again … and again. They were swimming in a certain pattern. Cross passing each other’s way as to try to stop themselves. I felt
my body completely lost its weight. For a moment I felt like swimming with them. Swimming to FREEDOM!!!
Only the unknown powers of the Universe knew what could have happened to me if the horrible noise of the electric bell did not bring me back to reality announcing that the nets are being pulled up. First thought…yet another senseless catch …
Forty minutes later, the triple sock, packed up to its limits, was lying on the deck. In a situation like this, the crew usually gets very excited. This time to my disbelief, there was silence. I knew something terrible had happened. Someone looked out and spotted the whales in the water. They were motionless, waiting. Back on the deck, the net was opened and there she was; a fifteen foot long female whale. I approached the body. The closer I got the stronger I could feel the pain in my chest. She was dead. The pink tongue was sticking out, the blood was all over, and the eye …
I could see sadness in it. It was telling me … “this is what is going to happen to you if you follow the rules of your society. There must be a way out of here … ” Suddenly, I felt like I was in a cage. I knew the other whales were waiting for their companion, and there was nothing I could do to help.
Sailors and Seamen are very superstitious and are the coldest people, but this time we all were moved. One mindless deck hand tried to cut the whale, but his knife wouldn’t go through her body. I felt it was a sign from God. There was silence on board that you could have cut it with a knife. Later we also had a human death on board.
A month later, in December of that year, martial law was proclaimed in my country. Two months after that, while in the gulf of Port Stanley, (the capital of the Falkland Islands), I was with several fellow seamen in a lifeboat having a little “recreation” trip around the ship. No prmission to go ashore. Out of nowhere, there was the beautiful little dolphin with the snow white strip on her head. We tried to follow her and I realized that she was leading us to the shore. When it was time to head back to the ship, there were suddenly ten, then twenty or more of them trying to stop us from going back to that ship of death.
However, we shortly received the message we were all waiting for and the Captain agreed that we could indeed visit the Port. We headed toward shore immediately and the dolphins were accompanying us all the way. I knew that I was to become a free man as I decided to stay on the island rather than return to the ship and everything connected with her.
The freedom did not come easily for in April of that same year, the Islands were invaded by Argentina and I found myself in the middle of a fully blown military crises. Yet another, eventful chapter of my life had begun. But, I guess I would need a book to let you know all about it. Agreed?
So, almost fourteen years later while experiencing meditation for the first time, the initial image that appeared to me was the eye of the whale … smiling!
Jack would like to hear from people all around the world to share stories from all walks of life. He is also writing a book. Having German & Russian in his heritage, he has spent a years in Poland, England, S. America, Brazil, Argentina, Israel, & many others. Jack is very hungry to experience people and we will be happy to forward all
mail, unopened, to him. ****

As an internet marketer there is no doubt that you come across several prospects that are ready to join your business, but just can’t afford it. Most business opportunities out there cost at least $1500 to $2500 to get started, not including marketing. So what happens with all these leads that want to start a business but don’t have the start up cash? Well they just go on your auto responder and eventually disappear.
Until NOW! http://www.mlmhugeprofits.com
What if you had a business almost anyone could afford to join and also offered an amazing opportunity to earn thousands each month?

Couple of day ago one of my FB friends sent me an informative article titled “Are Sports Drinks Safe For Your Kids?”(1) by Donna Partow the Christian Author and Speaker. My cyber friend merely pass it on to me without making any enticing comments for me to read it. Granted, she and I are involve in the Efusjon energy drink club, and that alone would attract me enough to read it, notwithstanding that the article was written by Donna Partow, board certified Family Practice and Sports Medicine Physician for over 20 years, at the Olympic, professional, collegiate and high school levels. To my astonishment not only does she mention of the Efusjon energy drink as the best on the market, but it turns out, that she is a Efusjon club member too. It is not an endorsement, it is a testimonial, period. I was so impressed with this article, that I decided to copy/paste it to share this with my friends. As anticipated in such matters, the article i am sure was red, but due to its nature, the readers decide not post any comments. except this one, that prompted this blog “H2O v. common sense”. The comment was simple and to the point; “H2O is far better for children”. Now, this is a direct challenge that I am happy to retort, using just a common sense.
As we all know H2O does exists only in a laboratory environment, so my guess is that we are talking about a drinking water. I used to drink a lot of it until i checked the nutrition facts label (of any drinking battled water on the market). You are absolutely right. There is nothing in it. How could nothing can be harmful. But, wait there is more, the ingredients. Lets look and defined them from the health point of view.
1. Purified water. – Purified water is water from any source that is physically processed to remove impurities. Distilled water and deionized water have been the most common forms of purified water………………………………….
2. Potassium bicarbonate. -
Potassium bicarbonate side effects
Get emergency medical help if you have any of these signs of an allergic reaction: hives; difficulty breathing; swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat. Stop using potassium bicarbonate and call your doctor at once if you have any of these serious side effects:
confusion;
uneven heartbeat;
unusual tiredness, weakness, heavy feeling in your legs;
severe stomach pain cramping; or
black, bloody, or tarry stools.
Less serious side effects may include:
nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, or upset stomach;
a rash;
slight tingling in the hands or feet; or
anxiety………..
3. Sodium Bicarbonate. –
Sodium bicarbonate side effects
Stop taking sodium bicarbonate and seek emergency medical attention if you experience a rare allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of the throat; swelling of the lips, tongue, or face; or hives).
Stop taking sodium bicarbonate and notify your doctor if you experience
nausea or vomiting;
headache;
sever mood changes;
muscle pain;
swelling of feet, ankles or legs
decreased appetite;
unusual tiredness;
constipation;
dry mouth or increased thirst; or
increased urination.
4. Calcium citrate.-
Calcium citrate side effects
Stop taking calcium citrate and seek emergency medical attention if you experience a rare allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives).
Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to take calcium citrate and notify your doctor if you experience
nausea or vomiting;
decreased appetite;
constipation;
dry mouth or increased thirst; or
increased urination.
5. Sodium Chloride,- I am to terrified to copy/paste it. You are welcome to google it for yourself.
6. Magnesium oxide,-
Magnesium oxide side effects
Stop taking magnesium oxide and seek emergency medical attention if you experience an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing; closing of your throat; swelling of your lips, tongue, or face; or hives).
Other, less serious side effects may be more likely to occur. Continue to take magnesium oxide and talk to your doctor if you experience diarrhea or an upset stomach.
We may all come to a conclusion that most of it is just a legal jargon. After all, today’s law suites are not about poising somebody or even a wrongful death, it is about the lack of disclosure. But is it really?. What ever it is, H2O or energy drinks, when it come to health issues, a common sense is the one that should rule it all. I shall leave this at your mercy.

Every day this kind of thoughts rattle in my head. is there ever a time to wake up. please comment or maybe it is just me??
THIS WAS WRITTEN BY A SOLDIER IN IRAQ ,
Okay, I need to rant. I was just watching the news, and I caught part of a report on Michael Jackson. As we all know, Jackson died the other day. He was an entertainer who performed for decades. He made millions, he spent millions. He did a lot of things that make him a villain to many people. I understand that his death would affect a lot of people, and I respect those people who mourn his death, but that isn’t the point of my rant. Why is it that when ONE man dies, the whole of America loses their minds with grief. When a man dies whose only contribution to the country was to ENTERTAIN people, the American people find the need to flock to a memorial in Hollywood and even Congress sees the need to hold a “moment of silence” for his passing?
Am I missing something here? ONE man dies, and all of a sudden he’s a freaking martyr because he entertained us for a few decades? What about all those SOLDIERS who have died to give us freedom? All those Soldiers who, knowing that they would be asked to fight in a war, still raised their hands and swore to defend the Constitution and the United States of America. Where is there moment of silence? Where are the people flocking to their graves or memorials and mourning over them because they made the ultimate
sacrifice?
When did this country become so calloused to the sacrifice of GOOD MEN and WOMEN, that they can arbitrarily blow off their deaths, and instead, throw themselves into mourning for a “Pop Icon?”
I think that if they are going to hold a moment of silence IN CONGRESS for Michael Jackson, they need to hold a moment of silence for every service member killed in Iraq and Afghanistan. They need to PUBLICLY recognize every life that has been lost so that the American people can live their callous little lives in the luxury and freedom that WE, those that are living and those that have gone on, have provided for them.
But, wait, that would take too much time, because there have been so many willing to make that sacrifice.
After all, we will never make millions of dollars. We will never star in movies, or write hit songs that the world will listen too. We only shed our blood, sweat and tears so that people can enjoy what they have.
Sorry if I have offended, but I needed to say it. Feel free to pass this along if you want.
Remember these five words the next time you think of someone who is serving in the military;
“So that others may live…”

I remember times when marketing of a product was exclusive to some. how many times had I asked myself, “OK. I have a product. How do i market it?”. Cost of marketing just prohibited the idea. Those days, 5% of people made 95% of the money. Then years late came MLM. Wow. What a concept. Believe, determination and as Art said, ”just do it”. Thirty years later, 6% of people make 95% of the money. Really, nothing has changed. Still decisive majority buys, pays, recruits in a hope to become the 5% of beneficiaries. and in spite of the fact that by law income statements have to be presented to a potential participants, nobody reads them. the “believe, determination and as Art said; just do it” factor is the dominating force today. in fact, this alone together with the free advertising on social networking, ”viral” marketing promises and subsequent false security when talking about the numbers, blinded people completely. nobody reads anymore anything. the due diligent part of any business decision is gone for ever. now everybody sells. product. ideas. help, how to. the last ones (millions) finally had and idea, that, who cares about the product, who cares about the pay plan, nobody. and they figured out how to make more money by selling “how to”. and they are the determined believers and they just do it. and do it, and do it, as the definition of insanity never existed.
the clues are in this message. somewhere. good luck.
