Change you financil life forever

I have just started with a new business venture that is changing my financial life quickly and drastically. It came to me almost out of nowhere and put money in my pocket almost as fast. The residual income for months / years to come will be incredibly helpful. In these tuff economic times income opportunities cannot be ignored. As Robert T. Kiyosaki of Rich Dad, Poor Dad, working for an hourly wage is a dead end and having only one income sources is a recipe for poverty. What can you do to create more income, create passive income streams? Well start with the Millionaire Mind 3 day workshop created by T Harv Ecker author of Secrets of the Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth and get your head on straight about money. Second find a business model you like, a product you like and jump in head first. I have tried many over the years and nothing worked like what I am doing now. If you want in on it I can certainly show you and get you started as well. Just contact me at chefdan@rawchefdan.com

Last Night's Event for Elements For Life was in my mind a hit.

I wished David Wolf would have started the night with a talk on Super Foods. I think People who came to hear about Super Foods left because they were not ready just yet to here about being part of a

MLM business and we lost them as a buying customer. Tangents also drifeted the message from the real core of a topic or question people where asking. Stories about eating Goji in the Grand Canion os cool but not really the hart of what people wanted to lean about. Other speakers also tended to ramble a bit but for the most part i found the event to be helpful to me!

It was however a really enjoyable event:

Want to be a Millionaire or Just comfortable?

One of the best quotes I got from the past two years of studying manifestation and higher consciousness was this:

“If your goal is to become comfortable,  chances are you will never become rich but if your goal is to become rich, chances are you will end up mighty comfortable. T Harv Ecker

Now I know you have heard me rant and rave about the Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar, AKA MMI. I push it all the time because it is a fun and an incredibly eye opening experience. It’s motivating, invigorating and simply an all around great time. And yes It’s Coming To My Neighborhood again soon.
Secaucus NJ Oct 17th - 19th.

LISTEN UP FRIENDS! I WOULD NOT STEER YOU WRONG!!!!!

This is sooooooooo worth it, you can’t even imagine. If not for the millions then just to open yourself up to your potential. Its coming and you are going. If you’re not from the aria then stay in the hotel where the event is held; you will not regret it. You can also check the website for an Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar in your neighborhood.

Also you can buy the book Secrets Of The Millionaire Mind and get two FREE PASSES to MMI.  

I have now taken 4 of T Harv Ecker’s seminars (Peak Potentials) and they are all really amazing. He really gets into you mental blocks that not only keep you from making millions but generally block us in life. How we think pretty much determines our life experience, it is all the same money, spirituality, diet, dreams, goals... “How you do one thing is how you do everything” or as Ekhart Tolle says “What your future hold for you depends on your state of consciousness now."

Go to MMI! sign up today; just do it. GO GO GO you will not regret it. MMI is worth every second.

You will need a referral number to register so I will give you mine.  #408228

Are there FBI Moles in your Raw Potluck Dinners?

In preparation for the Republican National Convention, the FBI is soliciting informants to keep tabs on local protest groups

Moles Wanted By  Matt Snyders      

They were looking for an informant to show up at "vegan potlucks" throughout the Twin Cities and rub shoulders with RNC protestors.

Paul Carroll was riding his bike when his cell phone vibrated.

Once he arrived home from the Hennepin County Courthouse, where he’d been served a gross misdemeanor for spray-painting the interior of a campus elevator, the lanky, wavy-haired University of Minnesota sophomore flipped open his phone and checked his messages. He was greeted by a voice he recognized immediately. It belonged to U of M Police Sgt. Erik Swanson, the officer to whom Carroll had turned himself in just three weeks earlier. When Carroll called back, Swanson asked him to meet at a coffee shop later that day, going on to assure a wary Carroll that he wasn’t in trouble.

Carroll, who requested that his real name not be used, showed up early and waited anxiously for Swanson’s arrival. Ten minutes later, he says, a casually dressed Swanson showed up, flanked by a woman whom he introduced as FBI Special Agent Maureen E. Mazzola. For the next 20 minutes, Mazzola would do most of the talking.

“She told me that I had the perfect ‘look,’” recalls Carroll. “And that I had the perfect personality—they kept saying I was friendly and personable—for what they were looking for.”

What they were looking for, Carroll says, was an informant—someone to show up at “vegan potlucks” throughout the Twin Cities and rub shoulders with RNC protestors, schmoozing his way into their inner circles, then reporting back to the FBI’s Joint Terrorism Task Force, a partnership between multiple federal agencies and state and local law enforcement. The effort’s primary mission, according to the Minneapolis division’s website, is to “investigate terrorist acts carried out by groups or organizations which fall within the definition of terrorist groups as set forth in the current United States Attorney General Guidelines.”

Carroll would be compensated for his efforts, but only if his involvement yielded an arrest. No exact dollar figure was offered.

“I’ll pass,” said Carroll. 

For 10 more minutes, Mazzola and Swanson tried to sway him. He remained obstinate.

“Well, if you change your mind, call this number,” said Mazzola, handing him her card with her cell phone number scribbled on the back.

(Mazzola, Swanson, and the FBI did not return numerous calls seeking comment.)

Carroll’s story echoes a familiar theme. During the lead-up the 2004 Republican National Convention in New York City, the NYPD’s Intelligence Division infiltrated and spied on protest groups across the country, as well as in Canada and Europe. The program’s scope extended to explicitly nonviolent groups, including street theater troupes and church organizations.

There were also two reported instances of police officers, dressed as protestors, purposefully instigating clashes. At the 2004 Republican National Convention, the NYPD orchestrated a fake arrest to incite protestors. When a blond man was “arrested,” nearby protestors began shouting, “Let him go!” The helmeted police proceeded to push back against the crowd with batons and arrested at least two. In a similar instance, during an April 29, 2005, Critical Mass bike ride in New York, video footage captured a “protestor”—in reality an undercover cop—telling his captor, “I’m on the job,” and being subsequently let go.

Minneapolis’s own recent Critical Mass skirmish was allegedly initiated by two unidentified stragglers in hoods—one wearing a handkerchief over his or her face—who “began to make aggressive moves” near the back of the pack. During that humid August 31 evening, officers went on to arrest 19 cyclists while unleashing pepper spray into the faces of bystanders. The hooded duo was never apprehended.

In the scuffle’s wake, conspiracy theories swirled that the unprecedented surveillance—squad cars from multiple agencies and a helicopter hovering overhead—was due to the presence of RNC protesters in the ride. The MPD publicly denied this. But during the trial of cyclist Gus Ganley, MPD Sgt. David Stichter testified that a task force had been created to monitor the August 31 ride and that the department knew that members of an RNC protest group would be along for the ride.

“This is all part of a larger government effort to quell political dissent,” says Jordan Kushner, an attorney who represented Ganley and other Critical Mass arrestees. “The Joint Terrorism Task Force is another example of using the buzzword ‘terrorism’ as a basis to clamp down on people’s freedoms and push forward a more authoritarian government.”
