Review of Extreme Niche Empires

Let me ask you a question. Are you fed up with all the lies and garbage put out by a lot of so-called “GURUS” recently? I know I am.
It is getting crazy out there, paid actors (that are really not that good), fake screenshots of trillion dollar incomes, outrageous claims that are just so far out there they are in ORBIT!
Then we have the “Push Button Millionaire” overhype with magic software that will have $1000s flying out of your computer every time you press that button! Really? Are you serious?
Well, even though I have become the ultimate skeptic as I am sure you are now, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Someone has finally stepped up and is setting the record straight… that person is Sean Donahoe.
Unless you have been hiding under a rock, you should have heard of Sean Donahoe. He was the guy behind the bestselling Video Marketing Goldmine course earlier this year. He is known for “Telling it like it is!”. I really love his no-BS message and REAL solutions for marketing and what actually works.
There are several things you need to know about Sean. First, his products are top-notch and very high-quality and he consistently over delivers. Second, his stuff just works!
No pie-in-the-sky claims, he will tell you straight “Getting wealthy online is possible but it takes work”. Now, that being said, he does show you how to do things the right way to avoid any pitfalls and hassles to really streamline things dramatically.
That is why I am really excited and writing this today. Sean is doing something AMAZING on April 28th. He is finally releasing his Extreme Niche Empires course. This course has been under wraps for almost a year as he honed, optimized and streamlined one of the most powerful money making strategies I have ever seen (and we have seen 100s of these over the years)
What Sean has done is nothing short of INCREDIBLE. He is going to share how he created an EMPIRE of high-authority autopilot income sites targeting niches that scare almost everyone else off… and he is making a FORTUNE doing it.
Now it’s your turn. This incredible course outline exactly how to do this yourself and do it the EASY WAY. This is not some crazy site building software that will get Google slapped (like many of them did after the recent Google Panda update). No, Sean is very unique, he shows you how to create laser-targeted, high authority sites that the search engines LOVE and rank like crazy.
He has packed this course with a ton of his INSIDER SECRETS that I have never seen anywhere else. This stuff is so powerful that it would blow your mind and has made me even rethink how I do things.
So, go check it out. If you are reading this before April 28th he has some very powerful videos that he is releasing too that will AMAZE you and give you a great idea about what is going on and even share some powerful tactics that you can start using right now.
I encourage you to go watch these videos and learn from one of the true masters of Internet Marketing and someone you should listen to!

‘I Love Lucy.’ Who doesn’t? Then you love Madelyn Pugh Davis, writer, who cooked up the humor, dead at 90, April 20, 2011. An Appreciation.

by Dr. Jeffrey Lant
Author’s note: To get in the mood for this article, search any search engine for the “I Love Lucy” theme song (written by Eliot Daniel). Make sure you get the version with the lyrics!
How many laughs has “I Love Lucy” given you over the years? More than you can even remember, I bet. And it’s the best kind of laugher; deep, belly laughs, the kind that take over your body, as you howl, unable to stop. Such laughter is good for the spirit and the soul; it literally washes away cares and troubles.
Madelyn Pugh Davis was the presiding genius who delivered these laughs week after week, to the delight of the nation. Her name appeared as co-writer for every single episode of the series which ran from October 15, 1951 to May 6, 1957. It was a staggering achievement. Not least because Davis was a very successful woman writer in the male-dominated medium of network television.
** Remember the episode where Lucy battles a giant loaf of bread that emerges from the oven and pins her to the wall? A classic…
Madelyn Pugh Davis knew how to work the premise of the show and its 4 main characters for maximum comedic effect.
“I Love Lucy” was not particularly innovative — the wacky housewife, the irritated husband, the oddball friends. What made the program innovative was the commitment of the 4 principal characters to do anything for a laugh…and the irrepressible inventiveness of the script. In other words, Madelyn Pugh Davis and the other key members of the team:  Her longtime writing partner, Bob Carroll Jr;  their producer Jess Oppenheimer. Writers Bob Schiller and Bob Weiskopf later joined the team.
** What about this classic? Remember Lucy slipping and sliding in a vat while mashing grapes? It was hysterical.
The four main characters.
Lucille Ball and Desi Arnaz, married in real life, were married in the program, too, as Lucy and Ricky Ricardo. Their friends are Fred and Ethel Mertz.
Lucy was a scatterbrained housewife mad keen on a career in the entertainment business, for all that she had no talent. Ricky was a Cuban band leader, as he was in real life; a typical quick to boil Latin, occasionally misunderstood but always faithful to the Lucy he loves (not the case for this roaming Latin lover in real life.)
Fred (William Frawley) was a grump, ultra tight with the penny, but a man of the theater himself having played vaudeville along with wife Ethel (Vivian Vance.)
The job of the writing team was to keep characters (known to virtually every single American) fresh by putting them in the middle of one side-splitting funny situation after another. These situations, particularly for Lucy, involved some very tricky slapstick comedy. Lucille Ball, an international star, might have been expected to make heavy weather about some of these scenes (“are they right for my image?”), but in fact what Madelyn Pugh Davis wrote, Lucille Ball did… no matter how difficult… as a matter of professional pride. That attitude permeated all the actors and their incomparable team.
**What about the episode from 1955? It centered on Lucy’s mortifying encounter with handsome Hollywood actor William Holden. Holden accidentally sets her fake nose on fire… and puts in out by dipping her nose in his teacup.
The most watched show in the United States in four of its six seasons.
“I Love Lucy,” resting as did on Davis and team’s just plain funny scripts, was hugely popular right from the start. What’s more, unlike other series that started hot and fizzled because of weak scripts, the quality of the scripts never diminished. They were good in the first episode; they were good in the last.
The problem with “I Love Lucy” was the seething personal relationships, always likely to burst into flame. Desi Arnaz liked the ladies, the more the merrier. He was Cuban and thought rampant, careless infidelity his birth right. Lucille Ball disagreed.
The relationship between William Frawley and Vivian Vance was also poisonous; they could hardly stand to be in the same room together, not least because Frawley was master of the all too accurate put-down. He once said Vance’s body was like a “sack of doorknobs.” It was crude… it was memorable… it was funny.  No doubt some of this (funny to onlookers) tension was slipped into the script to heighten the effect. Davis would have seen the humorous aspect and run with it… increasing the laughter.
** Must remind you of this one… an all-time favorite: Lucy and Ethel in this 1952 show land jobs in a chocolate factory, only to have the conveyor belt kick into overdrive.
Madelyn Pugh wrote and wrote… ascending the ladder one (usually funny) word at a time.
Pugh (her maiden name) was born in Indianapolis and graduated in 1942 from Indiana University. Because of World War II women had a crack at jobs ordinarily reserved for men, like the radio staff writer position she landed. It’s important to recall the primacy of radio in those days. It was the primary mode of communication; virtually every family had one. Pugh was talented, hard-working and ambitious. She soon moved up to a CBS affiliate in Los Angeles.
“My Favorite Husband”.
At CBS she met longtime writing  partner Bob Carroll, Jr. Together they worked on several shows,  including “It’s a Great Life,” starring Steve Allen… and “My Favorite Husband”, starring…… Lucille Ball. The pieces that were soon to make America laugh were beginning to emerge and get together. “I Love Lucy” was the result… the program America took to its heart immediately and whose unique use of three cameras changed an industry and launched a thousand sit-coms, many through Desilu Productions.
And remember… there was never, ever a vulgar word, a cruel put-down, a bigoted, biased, or racist comment. It was literally and gratefully good clean fun.
Madelyn Pugh Davis, as she became upon her marriage, was widely recognized, honored, lauded.
In 2007, the publication Television Week named her one of the 25 most influential people who shaped the industry, noting that she was a principal writer on all 180 “I Love Lucy” episodes and 13 specials on CBS from 1951 to 1961.
She was a lucky woman no doubt, luck being defined as setting the desired objective and working one’s tail off to achieve  it. A woman of mirth,laughter, high hilarity she was deadly serious about that. And we, in our often bitter times which cry out for some good humor, are the better for this lady.
** Just one more. Who can forget the Vitameatavegamin episode where Lucy gets drunk filming a commercial for this alcohol-laced patent medicine? One of the best… but then that’s the only thing Madelyn Pugh Davis delivered.That’s why after 6 seasons, “I Love Lucy” finished its run at the top of the Nielsen ratings, the first program to do so.

‘With your shield, or on it.’ Why America won’t get and doesn’t really want civic comity and civility.

by Dr. Jeffrey Lant
Imagine, if you will, that you are a candidate for the United States Senate, the most exclusive club on earth.
You have wanted to be a member, you have dreamed of it for your entire life.
You have sacrificed over and over again to get this office of the people’s trust. You have neglected  your spouse… your children… because there are only 24 hours a day and something’s got to give. But your dream cannot be compromised… for that is the sine qua non of your entire existence.
You have spent long hours of every day raising the millions of dollars you must have to be competitive.
Now it is just 8 days before the election… and you, the golden boy or girl that you are, you are down by just 4 points in the latest poll.
Your financial backers are telling you they didn’t invest their hard-earned money to cheer an also-ran. They make it clear what they think of such people. You know they are right, for you know America’s Success Mantra.
Respected senior members of your party, some direct from Washington, D.C., have told you that the party’s agenda (by which, of course, they mean, America’s agenda) is on the line. They need your vote, and they need it now. They make it plain that high posts of honor and deference await if you win… but nothing except scorn and execration if you do not.
Good earnest supporters, the people of Main Street, are telling you, like Princess Leia to Obi-wan Kenobi, that “you’re our only hope.” You cannot let these folks down… they would despise you if you did. And they’d be right.
The financial backers demand victory!
The party big-wigs insist on victory!
The people on Main Street tell you their storm-tossed lives depend on victory  — on you!
And your handlers, the people you hired at great, almost unimaginable cost (they did, after all, manage to defeat three sitting senators, one thought impregnable in the last election), these handlers are saying… and their reasons are crystal clear… that your opponent’s strongest suit is the integrity with which the voters regard him. Even you, the white hope of the opposition, have a sneaking regard for his old-time morality and squeaky clean service.
But the handlers, your brains trust, is also telling you that after all your opponent is vulnerable. Yes, after all, you are only 4 points behind.  They are also telling you with insistence how to eradicate this trifling deficit, grab the seat, and move up to your rightful destiny in the Senate of these United State and in the History of America.
All you have to do is ratchet up the attacks, just another notch or two…. just ratchet up the attack. Insinuate… besmirch…. belittle…  distort… demean… degrade…
Then, in the final three days, blanket the airwaves with total, complete, shock and awe belligerence, nothing, absolutely nothing held back, everything on the line, do or die, take no prisoners.
Yes, it will cost millions… yes it will shred the reputation of an opponent whose virtues and service even you can see… but it is what all elements of your campaign want, indeed absolutely insist upon.
“Victory,” Vince Lombardi wrote, “isn’t everything. It’s the only thing.”
And so you win your Senate seat… and it is sweet. As sweet as you always knew it would be.
Whereupon the Leader of your party in the Senate comes to visit and remarks, almost as an afterthought, that there’s a certain important vote coming up, next Thursday he thinks it is… and that he is hoping for the favor of your support.
From such a man on such a subject at such a time, such words, almost gentle, are the sternest of commands.You have really not had a chance to read the bill… you know precious little about it, but you have heard whispers that your biggest financial backer is….. opposed to it.
From such a man on such a subject at such a time, such words, not so gentle, are, too, the sternest of commands.
And so, while understanding that no man can serve two masters, you attempt to do just that. Your maiden speech on the issue falls flat. The Leader is not happy. Your financial backer is not happy. Your constituents, too, let you know they are not happy.
And you are the least happy of all. However, you learn and next time you are ready.
You make a calculated decision based on public policy and private gain. You make a deal with the Devil and the Devil tells you to demonize your opponent before your opponent demonizes you.
So you do, with no qualms whatsoever because your opponents on this issue gained a march by demonizing — you.
You learn two sets of words: the words for defending your side. and the ones for stigmatizing opponents. On the one hand is patriotism, what is good for America, lowering taxes, transparency in government, protecting the Middle Class.
On the other are words like disloyal, perfidious, selfish, short- sighted, special interests.
All you have to do is throw these words, and dozens like them, into a hat and pull them out one at a  time, and, voila, instant speech.
A quick study, you see early on that the more moderate the speech, the more reasonable the views, the less attention you get… and attention in Washington is how you play the game, increase your visibility, and win the glittering prizes. You get this message Loud and Clear.
And so you up the ante, seeing your opponents no longer as good men and women like you (perhaps blighted by party affiliation) but as minions of an Evil Empire and the darkest of views and aspirations. Moderation doesn’t work and, moreover, it isn’t justified. Your opponents represent Everything Wrong With America. You learn it is your sacred duty to say so, to expose the culprits and Save The Nation and its beseeching members.
And so you do… and as you deliver the red meat, the media delivers you…. to the attention of other media, movers and shakers nationwide, and to the unlimited financial resources of this great nation, a nation yearning for Leadership; now knowing that leader can be — you.
You are ready to answer this clarion call. Thus at last you understand, deep in your soul, the unanswerable validity of ancient Greek historian Plutarch’s telling tale of the Spartan mothers. They said, they meant “Come home with your shield, or on it.” You have heard…. and you are ready. You know just what to do. 31 bullets, 6 tragic deaths in Tucson, Arizona, , innumerable jeremiads and the most profound lamentations right up to the White House won’t change things a whit. We’re all sure of that, right?
