REVERBNATION LAUNCHES FACEBOOK MUSIC PROMOTION SYSTEM FOR ARTISTS, RECORD LABELS AND VENUES

August 24, 2011 (Durham, NC) – ReverbNation, the leading provider of marketing, promotion and social media tools for over 1.7 million artists and music industry professionals, today announced the public launch of PROMOTE IT, the first end-to-end music promotion system designed to help artists, labels and venues reach more fans on Facebook® and drive deeper fan engagement.
Artists, labels and venues can use PROMOTE IT to quickly and easily run campaigns that:

• Promote songs to reach new fans
• Promote Facebook Pages to increase exposure
• Promote shows to boost attendance and ticket sales
• Promote releases to drive song sales

“Facebook is the ultimate social platform of our time and we wanted to build a tool that harnessed that social power to drive the outcomes every artist, label and venue wants — more song plays, sales, downloads, shares, likes, email subscribers, and ticket sales,” explained Jed Carlson, co-founder and chief operating officer of ReverbNation. “The outcomes so far with the Beta version of PROMOTE IT have been stunning and we’re excited to be rolling it out now to everyone in the music industry.”
PROMOTE IT campaigns take only minutes to set up, start at just $25, and are fully automated, including ad creation, precise fan targeting, custom landing pages, and actionable results reporting. Since PROMOTE IT’s limited Beta release in April, users have run over 18,000 campaigns on the platform. Every day, the system gathers data and, overseen by a team of experts, incorporates improvements into all subsequent campaigns.
“I’ve been promoting my music online for a long time and I’ve never worked with a company that understands artists’ needs like ReverbNation,” said Brian Hazard of Color Theory, an electronic artist and active online marketer. “PROMOTE IT takes only minutes to set up and you’d be hard pressed to create a Facebook ad campaign that outperforms it. It’s the ultimate ‘set it and forget it’ fan-making machine!”
Built for music industry from the ground up, PROMOTE IT is designed to maximize the fan interactions that happen after an ad is clicked. Detailed, real-time reporting provides a window into who those fans are, and how they are engaging. “The analytics provided during and after a campaign allow for a clearer insight into what makes each Facebook ad campaign successful,” said Marc Jetton, Label Manager at Sargent House/Rodriguez Lopez Productions. “It’s a very cool new tool that I anticipate using quite often now and in the future.”
PROMOTE IT campaigns are now available to all artists, labels, and venues with free accounts on ReverbNation.

Out Of The Mouth Of Babes

Two young boys walked into a pharmacy one day, picked out a box of Tampax and proceeded to the checkout counter. The man at the counter asked the older boy, "Son, how old are you?" "Eight," the boy replied. The man continued, "Do you know how these are used?" The boy replied, "Not exactly, but they aren't for me. They are for my brother; he's four. We saw on TV that if you use these you would be able to swim and ride a bike. He can't do either one."

If We Are To Anticipate Change

"If we are to anticipate change, we must refine the elements, first of all, within ourselves starting at the pith of our distinctive temples... And what better recourse to initiating this reformation, than to discover the eminence of this treasure through... the solidarity... of MOTIVATION. Out of necessity within our hearts, we are cognizant of that particular change. Utilize any possible inspiration that may cross our paths, ride with it, and urge others the same through your own example. It is that impetus in motivation which provides us with the vitality, zeal, and vigor to superceding the obstacle or in accomplishing any known possible goal in life, regardless of the circumstance nor the odds beknown to chance." (Joel A. Ayapana)

 

Positive Thinking and What It Does!

A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds; it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities that were somehow absent before the change. Felicia Calloway

Risperdal Ineffective for Treatment of PTSD in Veterans By Psych Central News Editor

Despite its widespread use in veterans’ facilities, risperidone (Risperdal) appears to be ineffective in the treatment of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in veterans, according to a new study. Risperdal has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat PTSD, but doctors often prescribe medications for ailments that have not undergone government approval.

John Krystal, M.D., of the VA Connecticut Healthcare System, and colleagues conducted the six-month, randomized, placebo-controlled multicenter study at 23 different Veterans Administration outpatient medical centers.

Of the 367 patients screened, 296 were diagnosed with military-related PTSD and had ongoing symptoms despite at least two adequate antidepresseant treatments with selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), and 247 contributed to analysis of the primary outcome measure.

Patients in the study received risperidone (up to 4 mg, once daily) or placebo combined with other therapy. Symptoms of PTSD, depression, anxiety and other health outcomes were gauged via various scales and surveys.

After analysis of the data, the researchers found no statistically significant difference between risperidone and placebo in reducing measures of PTSD symptoms after six months of treatment.

Posttraumatic stress disorder is among the most common and disabling psychiatric disorders among military personnel serving in combat. No psychiatric medication is approved by the FDA to treat it. However, antidepressants are commonly prescribed for some symptoms of PTSD.

Within the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), 89 percent of veterans diagnosed with PTSD and treated with pharmacotherapy are prescribed SSRIs, the most common type of antidepressant.

“However, [S]SRIs appear to be less effective in men than in women and less effective in chronic PTSD than in acute PTSD. Thus, it may not be surprising that an SRI study in veterans produced negative results. Second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) are commonly used medications for SRI-resistant PTSD symptoms, despite limited evidence supporting this practice,” the authors write.

Researchers wondered whether risperidone (Risperdal) added to an ongoing pharmacotherapy regimen would be more effective than placebo for reducing chronic military-related PTSD symptoms among veterans whose symptoms did not respond to at least two adequate SSRI treatments.

The researchers also discovered that risperidone was not statistically superior to placebo on any of the other outcomes, including improvement on measures of quality of life, depression, anxiety, or paranoia/psychosis.

Overall, the rate of adverse events during treatment was low but appeared related to dosing of risperidone.

“In summary, risperidone, the second most widely prescribed second-generation antipsychotic within VA for PTSD and the best data-supported adjunctive pharmacotherapy for PTSD, did not reduce overall PTSD severity, produce global improvement, or increase quality of life in patients with chronic SRI-resistant military-related PTSD symptoms.

“Overall, the data do not provide strong support for the current widespread prescription of risperidone to patients with chronic [S]SRI-resistant military-related PTSD symptoms, and these findings should stimulate careful review of the benefits of these medications in patients with chronic PTSD,” the authors conclude.

In treating military-related PTSD, Charles W. Hoge, M.D., of the Walter Reed Army Medical Center, writes that “significant improvements in population care for war veterans will require innovative approaches to increase treatment reach.”

“Research is required to better understand the perceptions war veterans have concerning mental health care, acceptability of care, willingness to continue with treatment, and ways to communicate with veterans that validate their experiences as warriors.”

The study appears in the August 3 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association.

Your Brain and The Power of “Rehearsing” Your Future By Athena Staik, Ph.D.

Have you heard the phrase “fake it till you make it”?

Actually, it’s a science. It’s based on some of the latest findings on the brain. It involves using the brain’s power of imagination to “rehearse” optimal performance outcomes, your goals, dreams and future.

It works. Sports psychologists use this approach, for example, to train top athletes and champions to achieve optimal performance.

What does this have to do with your personal life and relationship? You can use this same power to achieve your goals, start a new healthy habit, or let go of an unwanted one.

Let’s be clear. This does not mean to walk around pretending your life is changed. That would be denial, not helpful at all. The idea is to capitalize on the mental imagery your mind is capable of producing, to visualize your future, the way you want it, and to make it an optimal sensory experience, one that involves all five of your senses. It’s sometimes called a “mind movie.”

It works for several reasons:

1. It can clear some old limiting beliefs.

Your thoughts are a powerful energy linked to your beliefs. They produce imagery in your mind that shape and direct the chemical reactions in every cell in your body. When a positive emotional energy state displaces a negative one, it has the power to permanently transform limiting beliefs. This process directs your subconscious mind, the part of the brain that controls the autonomic functions of the body, to create new neural pathways, ones that will be open to support you in the future that you want to create.

2. It can clear negative thinking.

Your thoughts are an inner dialogue. Scientists speculate an average of about sixty thousand thoughts cross your mind a day, most of which you habitually repeat to yourself. In many cases, you have been repeating them from childhood! These thoughts, or “self-talk,” are what cause emotions. While events may trigger painful emotions, they never cause them. The real cause of your emotions is what you tell yourself. “Rehearsal” is a process that can put you, rather than your emotions, in charge of what you think, and do, and how events unfold.

3. It can eliminate negative emotional associations.

Negative associations block change. When you think about realizing a satisfying career, a great relationship or a trim, fit body, what emotions do you feel inside? Many persons react with painful feelings, such as disappointment, guilt or anxiety. Why? These images can be reminders of what is not yet achieved, past mistakes, or even failures. This then produces negative associations. Thus, each time you see someone with a fit, healthy body, for example, you feel disgust or unhappy inside. The result? Your subconscious mind interprets this as something you want to avoid – a clear miscommunication! It’s just the way the brain works. Its operating system is hardwired this way. With “rehearsals” you can correct limiting associations, and be in charge of the process.

The bottom line? Painful feelings can really get in the way of your dreams. You need to know how to protect your goals and dreams from any “interfering” emotional states. One way is to energize your behaviors and chart your momentum in a certain direction by “rehearsing” your future.

If this sounds interesting to you, here are a few suggestions to get started.

Set aside at least 5 minutes once each day to visualize, in a relaxed state, your desired future in detail, as if it already exists.

When limiting thoughts surface at any time, breathe into them and let them go — and smile confidently.

As you “watch,” envision the vibrant colors, hear the sounds, feel the emotions and sensations in your body, even smell fragrances with your nose, and tastes in your mouth.

This is your “mind movie” and you get to live it in these moments as if you are there, completely and fully present in body and mind and emotion.

The key is to make sure this elicits pleasurable feelings of joy, happiness—gratitude—inside you as you do. Smile. Feel grateful.

Think of this time as a fun and delightful retreat, a transformational exercise you look forward to jumping into to rehearse the life and relationships that you are consciously taking action to create in your life – speedily coming your way.

When you feel pleasure “rehearsing” your future in the present moment, what you are doing is telling your subconscious mind—the part of the mind that runs the entire body—that this is the reality you desire.

Just believe it, feel it, and be open to prompts for what actions to take toward it, small or big. A few moments each day will add power to your dream.

"I Promise Myself" by Christian D Larson

I promise myself...

To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet.

To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything and make my optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthsiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet.

To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.

Christian D. Larson

CANCER CASE HISTORIES, SUCCESS STORIES, TESTIMONIALS

The number of terminal patients who have been restored to health is most impressive. In fact, there are literally thousands of such case histories in the medical record. The American Cancer Society has tried to create the impression that the only ones who claim to have been saved by Laetrile are those who merely are hypochondriacs and who never really had cancer in the first place. But the record reveals quite a different story. Let's take a look at just a few examples:

A World Without Cancer

About Vitamin B-17
Genesis 1:29

Then God said, "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food."

In spite of the great advances in the diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumours, cancer continues to be one of the main causes of death in the highly industrialised countries. It is calculated that one out of three persons will eventually die from some form of cancer. Although it is true that surgery and radiotherapy are capable of curing some patients with localised tumours and that chemotherapy has achieved cures in some ten types of malignant tumours, the general mortality rate from cancer has not improved substantially in the last 25 years. Nearly 60 percent of all cancer patients, upon being diagnosed, find that their disease is so widespread that the chemotherapy drugs currently being used cannot be given in dosages sufficient to destroy the large mass due to their high toxicity. Many cannot be exposed to chemotherapy, surgery or radiotherapy because of the undesirable effects. And there are several types of tumours for which there is no effective treatment yet known.

Worldwithoutcancer.org.uk, with great satisfaction, is able to present a vegetable agent whose anti-tumour action was known empirically for many years, but in the last thirty five years has been scientifically proven, primarily through the clinical studies directed by well respected metabolic physicians around the world. Among them are Dr. Ernesto Contreras Rodriguez, of the Oasis of Hope Hospital (Formerly Centro Medico y Hospital Del Mar at Playas de Tijuana, B.C.N. Mexico); Dr. Harold Manner of the Manner Clinic in Playas de Tijuana, Mexico; Dr. Hans Nieper, former director of the Department of Medicine at the Silbersee Hospital in Hanover; N. R. Bouziane, M.D., former Director of Research Laboratories at St. Jeanne d'Arc Hospital in Montreal; Manuel Navarro, M.D., former Professor of Medicine and Surgery at the University of Santo Tomas in Manila; Dr. Shigeaki Sakai, a prominent physician in Tokyo, Japan. In Italy there is Professor Etore Guidetti, M.D., of the University of Turin Medical School; in Belgium there is Professor Joseph H. Maisin, Sr., M.D., of the University of Louvain where he was Director of the Institute of Cancer. And in the United States there are such respected names as Dr. Dean Burk, former head of the National Cancer Institute; Dr. John A. Morrone of the Jersey City Medical Center; Dr. Ernst T. Krebs, Jr., who developed Laetrile; Dr. John A. Richardson, the courageous San Francisco physician who challenged the government's right to prevent Laetrile from being used in the United States; Dr. Philip E. Binzel, Jr., a physician in Washington Court House, Ohio, who has used Laetrile for over twenty years with outstanding success; and many others from over twenty countries with equally impeccable credentials.

This anti-tumour agent is Vitamin B-17 (commonly known as Amygdalin or Laetrile). According to Dr. Ernest T. Krebs, Jr. its components make it vital for our survival without cancer. The greatest concentration is found in the seeds of the rosaceous fruits, such as the apricot pits and other bitter nuts. Various documents from the oldest civilisations such as Egypt at the time of the Pharaohs and from China 2,500 years before Christ mention the therapeutic use of derivatives of bitter almonds. Egyptian papyri from 5,000 years ago mention the use of "aqua amigdalorum" for the treatment of some tumours of the skin. But the systematised study of Vitamin B-17 really did not begin until the first half of the past century, when the chemist Bohn discovered in 1802 that during the distillation of the water from bitter almonds hydrocyanic acid was released. Soon many researchers became interested in analysing this extract and so Robiquet and Boutron isolated, for the first time, a white crystalline substance which they called AMYGDALIN (from amygdala = almond).


In the U.S. the Food and Drug Administration has used regulation, not law, to keep doctors in some states from using Laetrile therapy. There is no federal law against Laetrile, nor does Laetrile appear on an official list of proscribed items. The Food and Drug Administration has also used regulation, not law, to ban the interstate shipment and sale of Laetrile by alleging that it is either an "unlicensed new "drug" or an "unsafe or adulterated food or food additive". It is neither. Amygdalin is an extract of apricot kernels, which makes it a food supplement and nothing more. Vitamin B-17 was the subject of great controversy 18 years ago when some of the world's top scientists claimed that when consumed, its components make it 100% impossible to develop cancer and will kill existing cancer. Pharmaceutical companies pounced on this claim immediately and demanded that FDA studies be conducted. Pharmaceutical companies conduct studies on patented chemicals they invent so that at the end of their study, if the drug gets approved, they have exclusive rights to its sale. They never conduct studies on foods that cannot be patented and that can be sold at any supermarket (e.g. vitamins).

Positive Thoughts Bring About Positive Action

Don't live in the past, thinking about mistakes or changes you made. Think of your life as a book, move forward, close one chapter and open another. Learn from your mistakes, but focus on your future, not on your past.

When I started counting my blessings, my whole life turned around.
Willie Nelson           

Constant repetition carries conviction.
Robert Collier

It is always easier to believe than to deny. Our minds are naturally affirmative.
John Burroughs

You can only deny that which carries no strength of conviction.
Byron Pulsifer

You must begin to think of yourself as becoming the person you want to be.
David Viscott
