How To Rid Your Mouth Of Morning Breath (Video)
October 4, 2016
See what you get for free. Sure I am out here looking for the models for you, trying to get y’all woke on poli-sci (politics) and sci-fi (science fiction, that may well be science FACT soon enough)… yeah, all that. But know for some practical science. Science you can apply to daily life. Applied science is what physics is. And to think, I did not do well in physics in school. But I got this ‘physics’ lesson for you right here.
Everyone experiences morning breath now and again, it’s a fact of life. But if some mornings you find that your breath is so bad that you’re scaring your pets, maybe you should take some advice from ear, nose, and throat specialist, Dr. Erich Voigt.

Watch now. Slay that ‘dragon breath’ homie. Some things mints can’t kill. Haaaaa!

Science Can Tell You How And When You Will Die (Video)
September 9, 2016
Science, statistics, and lifestyle can help predict how you will die!
Wow. So… Soften the subject with some cornball music why don’cha… Well, by now you know that death is a fact of life for us all. Not one we choose to focus on a lot, in fact, even when ‘your time’ comes you probably want it to happen unexpectedly, fast, and painlessly… but not for a long time yet. But is that how it will likely go? Turns out that science can let you know.
(Did you know that the macabre topic of mortality is studied by more than just researchers and medical doctors? How about insurance companies and government agencies like the Social Security Administration. Actually, SSA has a document actually called an Actuarial Life Table.)

Researchers Are Developing Implantable Sensors As Small As A Grain Of Sand That Can Monitor Vitals (Video)
August 4, 2016
Medical professionals have got to know that among the things that suck about what they do for us patients is the discomfort due to invasive procedures to even figure out what’s going on in those they treat. Well, looks like someone up the line has been working the problem. Maybe we will get that Star Trek medical tricorder where docs don’t have to even touch you to diagnose one day. This tech right here though, coming soon.
University of California, Berkeley engineers have built the first dust-sized, wireless sensors that can be implanted in the body, bringing closer the day when a Fitbit-like device could monitor internal nerves, muscles or organs in real time.
The so-called neural dust, which the team implanted in the muscles and peripheral nerves of rats, is unique in that ultrasound is used both to power and read out the measurements. Ultrasound technology is already well-developed for hospital use, and ultrasound vibrations can penetrate nearly anywhere in the body, unlike radio waves, the researchers say.
“I think the long-term prospects for neural dust are not only within nerves and the brain, but much broader,” said Michel Maharbiz, an associate professor of electrical engineering and computer sciences and one of the study’s two main authors. “Having access to in-body telemetry has never been possible because there has been no way to put something super tiny superdeep. But now I can take a speck of nothing and park it next to a nerve or organ, your GI tract or a muscle, and read out the data.”
Nice.
The Hurt Business (Documentary Trailer)
July 18, 2016
From the producers of Bowling for Columbine, Fahrenheit 9/11 and Generation Iron, THE HURT BUSINESS details the lives of various martial arts superstars, including Ronda Rousey and Jon Jones, competing in the fastest growing sport in the world and the struggles and triumphs that accompany all careers in cage fighting.
Besides featuring both legends, such as Georges St-Pierre, and up-and-comers in the sport the film covers the history of mixed martial arts fighting, from the coliseums of ancient Greece to modern day venues such as the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, all expertly narrated by Kevin Costner.
Themes of injury both mental and physical are explored and the question is raised; is it worth it to sacrifice one’s mind and body for sport?

Mike Adams Of Health Rangers Speaks On The Purposeful Poisoning Of Black People In America (Video)
July 11, 2016
Water poisoning is a tactic of terrorists and enemy combatants. Sounds like something someone at war with you would do. How about the KNOWN poisoned water citizens of Flint (Michigan, USA) were made to drink? Medical practice coverups and false diagnoses, predatory targeting… not in against U.S. citizens in America, right? Ever hear of The Tuskegee Syphilis Study?
That feeling you are feeling; hang on to it. Let it burn as researcher/journalist Mike Adams tells you what he knows to be the truth of American industries and government… let’s say… NOT PROTECTING Black people. Even if you cannot bring yourself to believe, you should make yourself watch.
Don’t just go quietly into the night.

How Jogging Was Once A Thing For Weirdos (Video)
May 23, 2016
One of the great short vids of recent times. Watch this clip, please… If only to hear why/how the late pro-segregation Congressman Strom Thurman was once himself followed by the cops at the end. This will give you a new perspective on one of the first recognized aerobic exercises that regular folks would come to regularly do…nowadays.
Today, it seems like everybody’s a runner. But it wasn’t always that way. Vox’s Phil Edwards looked into running’s history.

John Lewis: Bad Ass Vegan (Exclusive Interview)
May 17, 2016
Photo Credit: Eye Recap Photography
A favorite phrase that I love is Health is Wealth something I state quite regularly. Sometimes when the conversation starts to get organic people start to check out. Alkaline water, Vegan food, juicing that’s not Hip Hop or is it? Rappers and liquor companies have partnered for decades Sprite and Taco Bell have used Hip Hop in campaigns also. Times are changing, some artists are promoting exercise and nutrition rather than beers & popping pills. I had the pleasure of speaking with John Lewis better known as BadAss Vegan about Nutrition and business. We also discuss his new partnership with Styles P of the Lox regarding his Vegan Smart product. John is not your typical Vegan so this is not your typical interview. He provides tips on how you can transition into the Vegan lifestyle. Before you ask trust me John knows your struggle he is not some hippie that grew up on nuts and berries. Rather someone who grew up in Ferguson/St. Louis an area known for their Beer & BBQ. He is a member of Kappa Alpha Psi so he knows about college campus eating habits as well. We cover it all and he also provides encouragement about taking that entrepreneurial leap. So now get ready to learn what it takes to be a BadAss Vegan!

Candyland: Canadian Cannabis (Documentary)
May 7, 2016
Weed soda, chronic cookies and chocolates. Ah yes, sounds like some mighty tasty medicines those Canadians are getting a good dose of up there. New Prime Minister Justin Trudeau bringing in a new cool, a breath of fresh… well hazy… air to the country’s marijuana legalization conversation. See VICE’s Damian Abraham get up there and get into the mix; taking his lumps and the ‘medicine’ to get the story on Canada’s weed dispensaries and candy shops.
Toronto is currently in a gray area in terms of its marijuana dispensary boom. Since Canada’s Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was elected in 2015, promising to legalize weed, entrepreneurs have been illegally opening up shop all over the city. Although there’s no guarantee that Trudeau’s plan for legal marijuana will include storefront businesses, these operations are opening almost daily. While the shops specialize in selling weed for medical marijuana patients — more and more customers are coming through the doors of their local dispensary looking for marijuana edibles, which only a select number of federally regulated manufacturers are licensed to produce.
Phife – “Nutshell” (Video)
April 8, 2016
The family of Malik “Phife” Taylor have decided to see his wishes through; releasing music that he had been recording for his new album, “Give Thanks.”
Phife loved his fans, and was so excited for them to hear his new music. I feel like he would have wanted it this way.
– Deisha Taylor (Phife’s wife)
Deisha, along with Phife’s longtime friend and manager, Dion Liverpool, are leading with this J Dilla produced single, “Nutshell.â€
The family will be donating 50% of the proceeds from the sale of the song to two organizations that were close to Phife’s heart, the American Diabetes Association and the National Kidney Foundation.

People Get Their Bones Professionally Cracked (Video)
March 10, 2016
Best line in this whole clip: “Oh man, that was deep.â€
The chiropractor, Dr. Mike Mensah, kinda blew it though. He was supposed to have a slicker comeback line …like …well, I got nothing. But so what. We’re not talking about me now, are we?
Interesting thing I just learned from the clip: The ‘cracking’ you hear in the clip above is actually the sound of gas escaping from joints. Okay, but does all this really help you heal and/or feel better? Watch and learn for yourself.

Ghostface Gets At Back Martin Shkreli With His Own ‘Goons’ And ‘Goo’ (Video)
February 11, 2016
Stop f#cking around and grow the f#ck up…BE A MAN!
It’s the clap back at Millionaire Martin for all that reckless talk… But not how you think. Interesting. Verrrry interesting. The Hip-Hop Nation might’ve expected Ghost to go hard at prescription drug magnate Martin Shkreli. However, only the shrewdest heads could have thought it though to come up with this type of battle plan.
Ghostface Killah strikes back at Martin Shkreli with the 5000% increase of Daraprim.
War is chess, not checkers, folks. It’s often about winning hearts and minds. So, to take the battle to where Shkreli cannot win (e.g. Martin ain’t winning anybody’s heart anytime soon), to paint him as TRYING to be the ultimate villain THEN clown him for that THEN bring in the ‘goods’ to join the laughter… THEN have one of them end with a teary-eyed plea to Shkreli (and his MOM) to do right by the people who are sick and dying in the wake of his greed (e.g. his aforementioned 5000% price increase of the HIV drug Daraprim)…checkmate!
And in the midst of it all, promote the Wu Goo brand as the ‘anti’ to all of that at the same damn time! Mr. Starks’Â is showing the skill and temperament of a master… Shaolin technique is VERY good and his sword is deadly sharp. Well played.
Watch.

What? Millionaire Martin Shkreli Says He Would Smack ‘Ghost’ In His Face (Video)
February 8, 2016
Ha! It sounds funnier because this is real life. This dude don’t didn’t see how the Bronson v. Starks beef worked out, did he? This is Martin Shkreli – the bad boy of Big Pharma, the guy who bought the HIV drug rights and jacked the pill price way the f#ck up – you know, that douche. And sure, he is not the only douche on the planet, but as Bill Maher might quip… Shkreli does have a very punchable face. Watch him pop off a bunch of rah-rah talk above on radio. Then, after the jump, watch him say virtually nothing in his Congressional hearing.
In either clip… yeah, punchable. Wonder if Ghostface is gonna put out a video message to this guy.

Al Jazeera Investigates: The Dark Side (Documentary)
February 5, 2016
Yes, this is the documentary that folks are tying to Peyton Manning. And while the Super Bowl bound quarterback is a key figure in the way all this came about, this work should be allowed to stand on its own as an impactful, informative piece by Al Jazeera. Huge insights into the how and why of high-performing, high-achieving, highly-paid athletes even go there with these chemical enhancements. When is good enough good enough? For them, NEVER. That realization alone should let you begin to understand how far these athletes would go to get the stuff; driving how far/deep into the “Dark Side” folks will go to get the stuff to them.
Al Jazeera investigates the secretive world of doping in sports and raises questions about whether medical professionals are linked to some of the greatest sports heroes.
A related side note: it’s a shame that we are losing Al Jazeera America – one of the few well-respected world-renowned true investigative journalism entities with a foothold in the West. The news agency will shut down in America in April.

Interesting. And by interesting, I mean, somebody get me a plane to South Africa, or Spain or like, the Philippines!! Yes, a plane; not a ticket. I need to find these ‘models’ and bring ’em back with me on a private (wink) flight.
Oh.
These women don’t exist? The ‘perfect’ woman doesn’t exist? MESSAGE!
Alright, in all seriousness, can someone get me the number of the original model? She’s cute and I’ll holler. You KNOW I will. She is thick like I like!
Oh, and that photoshop software. Get me some of that. I will SHOW you a ‘perfect woman’ (with much cakes, holding a stack of pancakes… hahahaaaaa)!
