“Will You Please Be One Of My Angels?”

July 17, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

As you know, I have embarked upon a mission to raise at least a billion dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa with The Alive with Clive Top 20.

This mission is part of my promise for the world, which is that:

“By 2030 every person on the planet is lit up, fully self-expressed, and living passionately, creating an upward spiral of brilliance and joy beyond belief!” 

In a recent Blog post, “The Lazarus Effect:  Shining A Light On AIDS In Africa,” which you’ll see when you click here, I alluded to the disturbing statistics relating to the AIDS crisis in Africa.  In particular, I noted that of the 22 million people in Africa who are HIV positive, currently only 3 million are receiving life-sustaining antiretroviral medication at a cost of 40 cents a day on a daily basis. 

I was, however, pleased to learn about an encouraging breakthrough in the field of AIDS research in the past few days from a news item that was sent to me by Holly Yee.  Click here to see the first article about this breakthrough from the LA Times, and click here to see the second from The Globe and Mail.

By the end of last month, I used the last remaining funds I’ve had available for this project.  It has therefore now become necessary for me to secure additional funding so I can accomplish my objective.

Over the past couple of weeks, I have made as much progress as possible with my plan to raise at least a billion dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa with The Alive with Clive Top 20.

To this end, I created a “The Exciting Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip Contest!” to make many more people aware of musicians eligible for inclusion in The Alive with Clive Top 20, and unveiled The Alive with Clive Top 20 Plan, in which I discuss how I intend to accomplish my objective.  This plan is available for all to see through a link to the right of the video clip on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv.  I have also made a summary of this plan in a Power Point Presentation with ten slides available through a link on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv, just under the link to the plan.   In addition, I issued two Press Releases, one on July 9, 2010, which you’ll see when you click here, and the second on July 15, 2010, which you’ll see when you click here.

I am now in a position to approach major corporations and devote attention to obtaining the necessary sponsorship for my plan.

I do, however, need more time to make the necessary connections, and funding to stay on track.

In the overall scheme of things, I don’t need that much in the way of funding – just a few thousand dollars.

Based on all the progress I have made, the relationships I have established, the knowledge and skills I have acquired, and the infrastructure I have in place, I will be able to cause those few thousand dollars to do the work of millions of dollars very soon.

But in the meantime, I am looking for 25 or more people to be my Angels so that no one has to pay more than $20 to enable me to continue to make progress, stay focused, and accomplish my objective.

A week ago, a friend of mine, Penny Conlon, ordered ten “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts to give away to friends.  Unbeknownst to her, she caused me to think of the idea I’m about to present to you, and she is my first Angel!

This is what I have in mind:  As one of my Angels, I would like you to have ten or more people you know order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt for $20 each, and provide me with one address to which I can ship all the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts you order.  Alternatively, you could order ten or more “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts for yourself and give some or all of them away. 

I will pay the shipping for delivery of a batch of ten or more “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts to anywhere in the United States.  (If you live in a country outside the United States and would like to be one of my Angels, please send me an email to let me know the country in which you live and I will determine the lowest possible shipping rate for you.)

With orders for at least 250 T-shirts within the next few days, I will have the funds to order and ship the T-shirts, stay on track and avoid any interruption in the progress I am making.

It will also buy me time and provide me with the momentum to approach major corporations and invite them to become Alive with Clive Top 20 Plan Launchers, as described in the Press Release I issued on July 15, which you’ll see when you click here, and on the Web page you’ll see when you click here.

As previously mentioned, I find it particularly alarming that thousands of people are dying from AIDS in Africa every day from a treatable and preventable disease, and I want to do everything in my power to alleviate suffering and revitalize health for as many people as possible as quickly as possible.

With your support and a few simple actions on your part as one of my Angels, we will make a profound difference in the lives of millions of people.

A couple of days ago, I put the following post on Facebook:

“In what way is what you’re doing the answer to someone’s prayer somewhere?”

I believe that what I am doing is an answer to the prayers of millions who are suffering.

Without your support, they will continue to suffer and my efforts on their behalf will be impeded and delayed.

I also feel compelled to repeat the following quote, which is always in front of me on my desk:

No man is an Island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee. ~ John Donne, Meditation XVII, English clergyman and poet (1572 – 1631)

With your support, we can make a profound and vital difference, and enable my efforts to be accelerated.

For the past couple of years, I have attempted to do as much as possible on my own.  My time of operating independently is over.  It is now time for me to enter a new phase:  the phase of interdependence.

So, if you will be one of my Angels, please ask at least nine or ten friends to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt for $20 as soon as possible with you, and click here to place your order for ten or more “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts.

And when you submit your order, in a follow up email you can let me know the different sizes people in your group want and also whether they’d like their order to be in support of one of the musicians featured on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube for the video clip contest, described here, that is currently in progress.

As I did with The “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Launchers, I have created a Special Page on my Web site specially for Alive with Clive Angels, which you’ll see when you click here, to acknowledge and thank every one of my Angels who supports me in fulfilling on this request and who is willing to be featured on this page.  To see the Special Page I created for The “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Launchers, click here.  There will also be a link to the Special Page on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv.

As a special reward for those who submit orders of at least ten “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts by Noon, Eastern time, on Monday, July 19, I will be providing you with access to the recordings of more than a dozen interviews of world-renowned experts I conducted for the Multiply Your Magnificence Radio Show I presented a couple of years ago on AM 1230 WFAS, as well as the recording of the Multiply Your Magnificence One-Day Workshop I presented at the Crowne Plaza in White Plains on April 20, 2007, as soon as I post them in an Amazon S3 account I’ll be establishing soon.  For additional information about the Radio Show and Workshop, go to www.multiplyyourmagnificence.com.  I will, however, certainly welcome orders after Noon on Monday, July 19, too.

I envisage that when the T-shirts arrive, you and I can all get together with the friends of yours who ordered them and have “I’m Alive with Clive” T parties.  To the extent possible, I will arrange for musicians I have interviewed on Alive with Clive to perform at these T parties.

Furthermore, everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt through you will also obtain access to my $24.97 book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! and all future updates, FREE, together with bonuses and discounts, after you provide me with their names and email addresses.  For additional information about Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence, click here

In addition, four dollars from the sale of every “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt will be used to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

I promise you it will be a fun-filled, enriching and rewarding experience to be one of my Angels; the musicians I have interviewed on Alive with Clive will become known by many more people; and lots of people you know will meet new friends in the process of ordering “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts.

Please let me know as soon as possible whether or not you are going to be gathering orders to be one of my Angels, so I have a sense of what is happening and who is on board.

And to place your orders for ten or more “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts as one of my Angels, and receive free shipping to destinations in the United States, click here.

If you don’t wish to be one of my Angels, but would nevertheless like to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, click here.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you.

Best regards.

“Announcing: The Alive with Clive Top 20 Plan!”

July 9, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

Well, the moment has finally arrived!

After months of thinking, planning and preparing, I am finally ready to unveil the plan I have created to raise at least a billion dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa with The Alive with Clive Top 20

As you’ll see in the Press Release in which I am making this major announcement, I am giving access to my plan, to anyone who would like to see it, in a FREE SPECIAL REPORT called “How I Plan To Raise At Least A Billion Dollars For People Affected By HIV/AIDS in South Africa with The Alive with Clive Top 20!” 

To gain access to this Special Report, click on the link to the right of the one and only video clip on the Home Page of  http://alivewithclive.tv.  

To see the Press Release with the headline, “Clive Swersky Unveils Innovative Plan To Raise $1 Billion For AIDS Charities,” click here.

In recent weeks, as a result of seeing the disturbing and startling statistics relating to the release by (RED) and HBO of the documentary, The Lazarus Effect, about the devastation caused by HIV/AIDS in Africa, as described in my recent Blog post you’ll find when you click here, I realized that it was time to accelerate my plans to make the difference I want to, and believe I can, make.

As a first step, I would at the very least like to convert all the votes that have been cast for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 – approximately 25,000 so far – into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa by July 31, 2010, with the implementation of one or more of the various methods I have outlined in the plan.

To accomplish this objective, I am seeking gifts, bonuses and discounts from corporations, business owners and musicians who would like to (1) benefit from the goodwill and exposure of being associated with this project, and (2) encourage people to purchase “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts in support of musicians eligible to win “The Brand New Alive with Clive You Tube Video Clip Contest!” described at http://bit.ly/coqPof.

Since four dollars from the sale of every “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt is to be used to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa, with sufficient incentives to potential purchasers I’d be able to turn 25,000 votes into $25,000 with the sale of 6,250 “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts in the next 23 days.  And the musicians who are featured in video clips on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube will become known and appreciated by a lot more music lovers not just here in the United States but in other countries as well.

So, if you are reading this Blog post and are a business owner, a musician or a representative of a corporation who would like to provide incentives to help me to accomplish this objective, please click here to contact me as soon as possible.  And if you can refer me to a representative of a corporation or anyone else who can help me to accomplish this objective, please do so too as soon as possible.

The problem of HIV/AIDS in South Africa is pressing and the need is great.

Please also bear this famous universal and timeless passage in mind:

No man is an Island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main; if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man’s death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee. ~ John Donne, Meditation XVII, English clergyman and poet (1572 – 1631)

With the ideas outlined in my plan, together we can make a difference and revitalize health for millions of people who are affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa, in a way that is energizing and invigorating for all concerned.

Thank you.

Best regards.

Clive

“A Second Sighting of the ‘I’m Alive with Clive’ T-shirt!”

July 8, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

As previously mentioned, I’ve started to deliver and mail the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts to the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Launchers, and a couple of weeks ago, I published a Blog post, entitled “The ‘I’m Alive with Clive’ T-shirt Makes It’s Debut!” which you can see when you click here, in which I showed you pictures of Holly Yee, the first person in the world to be seen and photographed in an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.

This past Sunday, July 4, I had the opportunity to be photographed with another two “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Launchers, Jo Blackwell-Preston, owner of the world-famous Dop Dop Hair Salon in Soho, Manhattan, and her husband, internationally-renowned DJ, DJ Monk. 

We had just been celebrating the magical wedding of mutual friends of ours, during which we also saw the fireworks and sailed out in front of The Statue of Liberty, on a boat on the Hudson River.  Just before we arrived back at Chelsea Piers, Jo was kind enough to don her “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt over the dress she wore to the wedding, and strike up playful poses with me for the front and back views of her in her “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.  It wasn’t so easy for DJ Monk to do the same, because (a) he wasn’t wearing a dress (c’mon now, a little bit of humor never hurt anyone, especially DJ Monk!), and (b) he was wearing a tux and the T-shirt wouldn’t fit over the tux. 

I was, however, able to get pictures of Jo and DJ Monk together, and the three of us together, without the T-shirt. 

As mentioned on the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Launchers Web page, which you’ll see when you click here, Jo is one of the top hair-colorists in the world, and the dynamic force behind Dop Dop, a magnificent hair salon at 170 Mercer Street in Soho that offers a unique whole-vision approach to hair design.  Jo’s innovative style and passionate edge have the Soho crowd buzzing, and her vision to adhere to the artistic principles of hair design transcends the salon.  Dop Dop is setting new lines in the hair design business.  You can find out more about Dop Dop at http://www.dopdop.com

DJ Monk is a much sought after international DJ who divides his time between homes in both New York City and his native Montego Bay, Jamaica.  Wherever he works, he’s known for keeping people grooving on the dance floor while he spins a mix of House music, Hip Hop, R & B, Reggae, Reggaeton and 70’s & 80’s rock.  With more than ten years of professional experience performing in nightclubs, lounges, bars, private parties and events, DJ Monk spins in various cities and resorts around the world, catering to the jet-set elite, the tourist crowd and even college spring breakers.  For more information about DJ Monk, go to http://www.djmonk.net and http://www.myspace.com/djmonk1.

Now, it’s time to show you the pictures.

First, here’s a picture of Jo and DJ Monk together:

DJ Monk with his wife, Jo Blackwell-Preston

Next, here’s a picture of DJ Monk and Jo with me:

DJ Monk, Jo Blackwell-Preston and Clive Swersky

DJ Monk, Jo Blackwell-Preston and Clive Swersky

Next, here’s the picture of a jocular Jo and me, with Jo showing the front of the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt:

Jo Blackwell-Prestonwith Clive Swersky

Jo Blackwell-Preston shows off the front of her "I'm Alive with Clive" T-shirt, with Clive Swersky

And here’s the picture of Jo showing off the back of the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, with me by her side:

Jo-Blackwell-Preston with Clive Swersky (a rear view)

Jo-Blackwell-Preston points to the wording imprinted on the back of her "I'm Alive with Clive" T-shirt, with Clive Swerky by her side

Again, as you can clearly see, the back of anything black looks much more exciting with the words “Creating An Upward Spiral Of Brilliance and Joy In The World!” imprinted on it!

Now the question on my mind is:  Who will be next to be photographed with me, front and back, while wearing their “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt?

The first step to make that happen is to actually own one, and if you haven’t yet ordered yours, you can do so when you click here.

Also, since we’re in the midst of “The Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip Contest!” described at http://bit.ly/coqPof , if you do order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt for yourself now, be sure to select a musician you like from those for whom a video clip is available for viewing on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube at http://bit.ly/buBONH, and when you place your order mention his or her name.  That way he or she will get credit and be shown on the order-ranking page you’ll see when you click here.

As a reminder, everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt now also gains immediate free access to my new $24.97 book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! (which is described in a Blog post you’ll see when you click here), as well as discounts as soon as they’re in place and bonuses that are already available.

In addition, four dollars from the sale of every “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt is being used to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

So, again, to order your “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt and help a musician featured in a video clip on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube win the Alive with Clive YouTube video clip contest described at http://bit.ly/coqPof, click here.

I look forward to seeing you and being photographed with you in your “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt soon.

Best regards.

“I Just Thought Of This GREAT Idea For July 4!”

July 4, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

Today is a special day of joy and celebration, and this morning, shortly after I awoke, I thought of this GREAT idea.

As you know, I recently created “The Exciting Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip Contest!” which is described here, to determine which video clips to show on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv between now and December 31, 2010.

Unless you’ve been following me on Facebook, or you’re one of the musicians I’ve interviewed on Alive with Clive who is featured in a video clip on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, which you’ll see when you click here, what you may not know is that I am about to make a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT!

All the ideas I have been implementing over the past five years have now led me to the point where I am in a position to make this ground-breaking MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT, and to say that I am excited about it would be a major understatement.

Now, by now you ought to have realized that I make use of every available opportunity to give the musicians I have interviewed on Alive with Clive as much free publicity as possible whenever possible, and to promote them in whatever ways I can.  So now that I am about to make this MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT, I am adhering even more closely to this practice.

I therefore created “The Exciting Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip Contest!” which you can read about when you click here or scroll down to see my earlier Blog post about it.

You see, when I make my MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT, A LOT of people all over the world are going to HAVE TO go to the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv to click on a link immediately to the right of the video clip that is featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv.

Clearly, then, starting very soon, it will be HUGE for any musician I have interviewed on Alive with Clive who is featured in a video clip on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, which you’ll find when you click here, to be featured in the one and only video clip on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv.

So here’s the GREAT idea I thought of this morning:

When you’re at your July 4 barbeques or weddings, gather around a few friends with your iPads, iPhones or other devices you use to gain access to the Internet, watch the video clips on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, choose one you like, and order “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts for yourselves in support of the musician you like.

If you are part of a group that orders at least ten “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts, I will do whatever I can to arrange for the musician you support to give you and your friends your own exclusive concert in your own home, FREE.  (Since I haven’t yet discussed this idea with the musicians involved, I can’t guarantee their availability, but in all likelihood if you and your group order at least ten “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts on behalf of a musician featured in a video clip on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, and you live in fairly close proximity to the musician, that musician will be delighted to provide an exclusive concert, FREE, for you and your friends at your home, or at another venue of your choosing, with my assistance.  And if that musician isn’t available, I will have no difficulty in finding a replacement.)

To order your “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts, click here.

A video clip of the musician for whom the most “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts have been ordered by 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on July 6 will be featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv from July 7 through July 17, and the first musician to have received five orders of an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt on his or her behalf will be featured before then.

At the moment, three orders for “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts have been placed in support of Scott Krokoff and no orders have been placed for any one else.  So at the moment, it looks like the video clip of Scott Krokoff will be seen on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv from July 7 to July 17, but a lot can happen between now and July 7, and a lot probably will.

Since I may, but don’t know if I can, wait until Wednesday to make my MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT (and I won’t be at my computer from late afternoon to the end of the night today, July 4), there’s a golden opportunity for at least one of the musicians to benefit from some major exposure on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv on Monday and Tuesday, July 5 and 6, as well as from July 7 onwards.

To see what happens after July 17, see the rules of the contest.

So gather your friends around today or within the next few days, click here to watch the video clips on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, and submit your orders for your “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts so the musician you love can win or be one of the winners in “The Exciting Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip Contest!” and (subject to the caveat I mentioned above) provide you and your friends with your own exclusive FREE house concert.

Remember, everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt now in support of a musician also receives access to my $24.97 book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! together with all future updates, FREE, as well as discounts once they’re in place and ten life-enriching bonuses that are already available.

To order your “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts, click here.

I look forward to seeing the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt orders you place in support of the musician you love.

Have a fabulous 4th!

Best regards.

“The Exciting Brand New Alive with Clive YouTube Video Clip T Contest!”

June 24, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

A few days ago, I found myself with a dilemma involving the video clip on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv.

You see, with each passing day, as previously mentioned in a Press Release I issued on April 13, 2009, entitled “One Piece of ‘Real Estate’ – 4” by 7” at www.alivewithclive.tv — Just Became Much More Valuable!” which you can see when you click here, as Alive with Clive is becoming known by more and more people, the piece of “real estate” on which that video clip is shown is becoming increasingly more valuable.

And in the next few weeks, as my campaign to obtain bidders to provide discounts for everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and my efforts to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa through sponsor bidding, gather momentum, this 4” by 7” piece of “real estate” on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv is only going to become even more valuable.

In other words, anyone who is seen in a video clip on that 4” by 7” piece of “real estate” will be in a position to experience a quantum leap in recognition, and all the other benefits that go with that, fast!

As mentioned in the Press Release about this 4” by 7” piece of “real estate” referred to above, in April last year I created a weekly contest based on the number of votes obtained by contenders for a slot in The Alive with Clive Top 20.  A video clip of the musician who obtained the most votes in the week in question was posted on the Home Page, and lower down on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv there is still a Wall of Fame to acknowledge the seven musicians who earned the right to have their video clip featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv

After a while, Serotonen, the band that is entrenched at the top of The Alive with Clive Top 20, dominated the voting, and a video clip featuring Serotonen became a fixture on the Home Page at www.alivewithclive.tv for several weeks.

Then I noticed that Michael Lynche, one of the musicians I interviewed on Alive with Clive in September, 2008, was a contestant on American Idol and made it into the Top 4 this year.  So naturally it made sense for me to feature a video clip of Michael Lynche on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv, and the video clip of him singing his “dirty blues” version of the classic “Ain’t No Sunshine” is still there at the moment.

But now that the 2010 American Idol season is behind us, the question that popped into my head a few days ago is this:  Which video clip do I place on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv?

As you know, I’ve recently created the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and I am selling the T-shirt to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

To encourage fans of musicians I’ve interviewed on Alive with Clive to experience the thrill of owning an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt and the joy of gaining access to the enriching book of quotes I recently created, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! as well as all future updates, FREE, between now and December 31, 2010, I’ve decided to feature a video clip on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv of the musicians whose fans order the most “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts.

Here’s how this contest will work:

  1. There will be four phases:  The first phase will be from June 26 at 8 p.m. until 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Tuesday, July 6; the second from July 7 until 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Saturday, July 17; the third from July 18 until 11.59 Pacific time on Saturday, July 31, 2010; and the fourth from August 1 until 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Thursday, September 30, 2010.
  2. A video clip of the musician whose fans are first to order five “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts will be featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv from the time the first five orders are received until 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on July 6.
  3. A video clip of the musician whose fans have ordered the most “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts by 11.59 Pacific time on Tuesday, July 6, will be featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv from July 7 until 11.59 p.m Pacific time on Saturday, July 17.
  4. A video clip of the musician whose fans have ordered the most “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts by 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Saturday, July 17, will be featured on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv from July 18 until 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Saturday, July 31.
  5. For the period August 1 through September 30, the video clips shown will be those that correspond to the first 61 orders, in the order of the video clip for the lowest number of orders per musician through July 31 to the highest.  If there are less than 61 orders by July 31, each video clip will be shown for a proportionate number of extra days between August 1 and September 30.  And if there are more than 61 orders, each video clip will be shown for a proportionate number of fewer days.
  6. The video clip of the musician for whom the most orders have been submitted by 11.59 Pacific time on Thursday, September 30, will be shown for the entire month of October, November or December, one of which must be chosen by the winning musician, and I will also issue a Press Release dedicated to this musician.
  7. The musician on behalf of whom the second highest number of T-shirts is ordered by 11.59 p.m. Pacifice time on Thursday, September 30, will be featured for 20 days in one of the other two months not chosen by the winning musician, and the musician on behalf of whom the third highest number of T-shirts is ordered by 11.59 Pacific time on Thursday, September 30, will be featured for ten days in one of the other two months not chosen by the winning musician.
  8. The musicians on behalf of whom there were additional T-shirt orders by 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on Thursday, September 30, will share the remaining 30 days in the three months not used by the first three musicians, in proportion to the number of orders that were submitted on behalf of each one.
  9. All orders will be cumulative, so it will be possible for the same musician to be the winning musician in all four phases, but orders placed before June 26 will not be counted for this contest. 
  10. The different phases and rules have been designed to give as many musicians as possible the opportunity to have a video clip displayed on the Home Page of www.alivewithclive.tv between now and December 31, 2010, while at the same time favoring the musicians whose fans place the most orders for “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts.
  11. While only musicians for whom a video clip already appears on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube are currently eligible to win this contest, “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts ordered by fans of musicians who have already appeared on Alive with Clive, or who have not yet appeared but will appear on Alive with Clive by July 31, for whom a video clip has not yet been posted on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube will be counted as soon as a video clip for the musician they support is posted on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, provided it is posted before October 1, and lots of orders from fans of musicians for whom a video clip has not yet been posted will increase the likelihood that a video clip of the musician supported will be posted sooner rather than later.
  12. While every effort will be made to post video clips not yet posted of all musicians whose fans have ordered an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt as soon as possible, no assurance can be given that a video clip will be posted of every musician of whom a video clip has not yet been posted on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, and refunds of amounts paid for “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts will not be given under any circumstances, whether or not a video clip is posted before October 1.
  13. For an order in support of a musician to count for that musician, the name of the musician must be stated in the Special Instructions in the payment stage of the ordering process or in a separate email to me  or in a voice-mail message left for me by phone at my phone number below  in which a reference is made to the date and time of the order in support of the musician.
  14. Since shipping to destinations outside the United States is more expensive, orders from outside the United States must be made using the PayPal button for delivery outside the United States at the Web site you see when you click here.
  15. Rankings of musicians and T-shirt orders will be posted as often as necessary, and as soon as possible after orders are received, at the Web page you’ll see when you click here.
  16. “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts bought by musicians themselves will also count as T-shirts bought by their fans. 
  17. Musicians who receive support from their fans in this contest will be featured extensively in such promotional media as Facebook, Twitter, in Press Releases, and on my Blog, as well as in other endeavors to promote Alive with Clive, so musicians who are successful in encouraging their fans to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt will benefit from every order on their behalf.
  18. It is recommended that musicians eligible to win this contest provide incentives such as free songs, free posters, discounted tickets to shows and even T-shirts of their own to encourage their fans to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.
  19. The bonuses being offered by the different musicians to encourage their fans to order “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts on their behalf will be shown on the Web page you’ll see when you click here
  20. To be featured on this page, at least ten bonuses from any musician must be provided.
  21. To claim a gift, a person who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt on behalf of a musician must also specify the gift being claimed in the Special Instructions, or in a separate email to me or in a voice mail message left for me at the number below in which a reference is made to the date and time of the order.  If the person who has ordered claims the gift after no more are left, he or she will be notified that he or she is too late. No refunds will be granted to purchasers even if they are too late to receive the gift they wanted or for any other reason. 
  22. Gifts of CDs that are sent to me by musicians will be mailed to each purchaser with the T-shirt ordered.
  23. Between now and September 30, 2010, corporations that have the ability to provide prizes that will be appreciated by musicians or incentives that will be appreciated by fans will be approached to see if they’d like to provide a prize to one or more musicians whose fans order the most “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts or to fans, but no assurance can be given that a prize or prizes will be awarded to any of the musicians or that any incentives will be made available to fans.
  24. In the event there is a tie at 11.59 Pacific time on September 30, 2010, fans of musicians involved in the tie will have another 24 hours in which to submit orders.  In the event of a further tie at 11.59 p.m. on October 1, the first order after 11.59 p.m. Pacific time on October 1 will be the deciding order.
  25. “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts are ordered from the manufacturer in batches of 24 or more, so there may be delays in receiving the T-shirts, but the bonuses and access to Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence will be made available to each purchaser immediately after his or her order.  In addition, each purchaser of an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt will qualify to receive the discounts as soon as they are available.

  • People affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa will win because as a result of this contest more attention will be focused on their plight, and four dollars from the sale of every ”I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt will be used to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for their benefit.

I’m looking forward to receiving orders for the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt from the fans of musicians I’ve interviewed on Alive with Clive for whom a video clip is available for viewing on The Alive with Clive TV Channel on YouTube, which you’ll see when you click here, and to keeping track of the contenders who want their video clip featured on the Home Page of Alive with Clive between July 7 and December 31, 2010.

The “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt Makes Its Debut!

June 21, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

It gives me great pleasure to announce that the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt has now officially made its debut.

One of the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt launchers, Holly Yee, is the first person in the world to wear and be photographed in an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt. 

The momentous and historic event occurred this past Friday, and Holly has graciously authorized me to share with you the pictures in which she is featured wearing her “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.

Holly is a great friend and wonderful supporter of all my endeavors.  She brought her children and friends to the first Alive with Clive Top 20 Concert that was held at Waltz-Astoria, in Astoria, New York, in May last year, and was kind enough to host a concert for Jeneen Terrana, who is in tenth place in The Alive with Clive Top 20, at her home to help Jeneen raise the funds to create her next CD, which she has already recorded.

She was also one of the first people in the world to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.

Here are the pictures of Holly wearing the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt.  As you’ll see, I’m standing next to her in the pictures in a black shirt. 

Holly Yee, the first person in the world to be seen in an "I'm Alive with Clive" T-shirt, with Clive Swersky

Holly Yee shows off the back of the "I'm Alive with Clive" T-shirt, with Clive Swersky

As you can see from the pictures of Holly and me, a black shirt looks so much more exciting when it is an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt!

I received the box containing the first batch of “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts last week, and am now in the process of delivering and mailing the T-shirts.

I do still want to give the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt launchers the opportunity to let me know their preferences for the five CDs that are being given to the people who ordered the first 25 “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirts.

The five CDs that are being given away, in addition to A Braver Kind by Allison Scola, are as follows:

  • Mirrors, by Jessica Labus
  • Heartstrings, by Irena Hart
  • My Creation, by Jeneen Terrana
  • Hold The Sun, by Cassandra Kubinski
  • PostData, by Lisa Bianco

So, if you’re one of the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt launchers who ordered one of the first 25 T-shirts and haven’t yet let me know your preferences, please click here to see the five CDs that are being given away and complete the Bonus CD Preferences Form.

In the weeks ahead, I may create other special offers involving CDs as bonuses.

So, if you are not one of the first 25 people to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and nevertheless take the time to complete the preferences form by clicking here, I’ll be able to gauge the CDs that are most popular and construct offers accordingly. 

I’m still making my book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! and all future updates, which I’m going to sell for $24.97, available FREE for a limited time to everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt now.  

So, to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt to help me to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa, click here now.

I’m looking forward to seeing a picture of you in an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt too!

Best regards.

“‘The Lazarus Effect’: Shining A Light On AIDS In Africa”

June 7, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

Within the past couple of weeks, I noticed the promotional announcements for “The Lazarus Effect,” a documentary by Director, Lance Bangs, and Executive Producer, Spike Jonze, presented by (RED), HBO and Anonymous Content.

The 30-minute documentary illustrates the transformative effect of life-saving antiretroviral medicine through the stories of people with HIV in Zambia who were at death’s door.  As shown in the documentary, by taking the ARV medicine – 2 life-saving pills that cost around 40 cents a day – in as few as 40 days, the medicine can help bring people back to life.

I first watched the documentary on YouTube, where you can too, at http://www.youtube.com/joinred.

I also went to a special screening of the documentary on Tuesday, June 1, at 6 p.m. at the Apple store at 103 Prince Street, on the corner of Greene Street in Soho, where I met Lance Bangs, Rita Mbanga, who worked on the documentary with Lance, Jenifer Willig, Global CMO of (RED), and other representatives of (RED).

Here’s a picture of me with Lance Bangs, Director of “The Lazarus Effect”:

Lance Bangs with Clive Swersky

From my perspective, based on answers provided by Lance Bangs to questions he addressed after the screening at the Apple store, “The Lazarus Effect” shows that the ARVs, when properly administered to people before they have been too ravaged by the effects of HIV/AIDS, produce miraculous results. 

I have crystallized the information I have learned about the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Africa from information at www.joinred.com into what I refer to as the “Seven Startling Stats About AIDS In Africa.”  Here they are:

1.     AIDS is the leading cause of death in sub-Saharan Africa, where it has already killed more than 20 million people, and every day approximately 3,800 people die from the disease.

2.     Of the 33 million people in the world who have HIV, 22 million or 67% live in Africa, yet the continent is home to just 10% of the world’s population.

3.     Women make up approximately 60% of estimated HIV infections in sub-Saharan Africa and, as a result, women and children are the hardest hit by the disease.

4.     An estimated 14.1 million children in Africa have been orphaned because of AIDS already and this number is growing.

5.     More than 1,000 children, most within sub-Saharan Africa, are infected with HIV each day.

6.     While in 2002 only 50,000 people in Africa had access to medication due to its high cost, today 3 million people there are currently receiving treatment.

7.     HIV/AIDS is a treatable and preventable disease, since a person with HIV/AIDS taking 2 ARV pills at a cost of about 40 cents a day can be transformed from sick to healthy in as few as 40 days, and remain healthy provided he or she continues to take the pills every day.

And this is what we can deduce from these stats:

1.     If 3 million people are currently receiving treatment at a cost of about 40 cents a day, the cost to provide the medicine to the 3 million people is approximately $1.2 million a day.

2.     Since 22 million people in Africa currently have AIDS, 19 million with HIV/AIDS are not receiving treatment.

3.     It would cost another $7.6 million a day to provide the medication to the $19 million people who are not currently receiving treatment as well.

4.     The cost to provide all 22 million who currently have HIV/AIDS with medication would be approximately $8.8 million a day.

5.     $8.8 million a day translates into $3.2 billion a year, assuming all the medication could be manufactured.

Based on this information, I am more committed than ever to play whatever role I can to direct attention to the plight of people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa and generate funds to assist them. 

For me, that means, first, converting all the votes that have been cast for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa through sales of the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and second, creating The Alive with Clive Top 20 compilation CD to be sold to raise millions of dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

Four dollars from the sale of every “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt will be used to convert votes into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.

For a limited time, people who order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt now also receive my new book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time! FREE!!!

“Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence!”

May 24, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

In recent weeks, I have developed a fascination about the correlation between thoughts and manifestation.

I’ve started to ask myself lots of questions, like where do disempowering thoughts come from; is it possible to turn them off or must we always be on the alert for them so we can transform them; and if I diligently and vigilantly think empowering thoughts with affirmations and visualization, will I accomplish my objectives faster?

As a result of my questioning and research, a few books keep emerging as timeless classics, and they emphasize the same message over and over again.

The books to which I am referring are Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill, As A Man Thinketh by James Allen, The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace D. Wattles, Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz, and The Master Key System by Charles F. Haanel.

James Allen aptly described the message that continues to be emphasized in these books in this passage at the start of the chapter, Effect of Thought on Circumstances, from As A Man Thinketh:

A man’s mind may be likened to a garden, which may be intelligently cultivated or allowed to run wild; but whether cultivated or neglected, it must, and will, bring forth.  If no useful seeds are put into it, then an abundance of useless weed seeds will fall therein, and will continue to produce their kind.

And in Think and Grow Rich, Napoleon Hill wrote the following:

The subconscious mind will not remain idle!  If you fail to plant desires in your subconscious mind, it will feed upon the thoughts which reach it as the result of your neglect

Since I have goals I want to accomplish, and want to do whatever I can to think the most powerful thoughts to enable me to accomplish my goals as quickly as possible, a few weeks ago I decided to create a book of the most inspiring quotes I’ve ever read, which I have called Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence – A Compilation of the Most Inspiring and Insightful Quotes of All Time!

Since I made the decision to create this book, I’ve thought of and read many inspiring quotes, several of which I’ve collected over the years, and every time I thought of or read a new quote I immediately added it to the book.

Often, in the midst of a particularly challenging difficulty or vexing adversity, it has been an inspiring quote that has resuscitated me and provided me with the strength, desire and faith to keep on keeping on, putting one foot in front of the other.

In this process, it’s become clear to me that an inspiring quote is like a shot of adrenaline that provides a powerful boost of energy to overcome the next challenge in my path.

At first, I thought my collection would contain only about 60 to 80 quotes, but as I began to compile the quotes into a book, I kept thinking of and noticing one inspiring quote after another.

As a result, the book now has more than 85 pages and more than 375 of the most inspiring and insightful quotes I have encountered in my lifetime, organized into the following seven different chapters, and I’ll be adding more quotes in the weeks ahead too:

1.  Discovering Your Passion And Unleashing the Genius Within You

2.  Your Thoughts Create Your Reality

3.  Commitment, Courage, Taking Action, Overcoming Fear

4.  Persistence, And Dealing With Adversity And Challenges

5.  Making A Difference In The World

6.  Love

7.  Miscellaneous

In addition, interspersed among these quotes are some of my own. 

One of my favorite quotes from Earl Nightingale is that:  “A candle is not diminished by giving another candle light.”  In fact, in a dark room, the more candles that are lit by one candle, the more brightly the light in the room shines.

In the spirit of this sentiment, and since my promise for the world involves creating an upward spiral of brilliance and joy in the world, I have some very good news for you:

I am giving away access to this book, Quotes To Multiply Your Magnificence plus SEVEN awesome additional bonuses, which are included at the end of the book, as well as ALL FUTURE UPDATES, FREE, to everyone who has already ordered an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and, for a limited time before I start selling the book for $24.97, to everyone who orders an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt NOW! 

Since this book will be updated constantly in the days and weeks ahead with additional quotes, if you gain access to it by ordering an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt now, you will always have access to the most current version.

“Michael Lynche: From Alive with Clive to American Idol!”

April 6, 2010 by cliveswersky

Hello Friends:

Over the past few years, I must confess, I haven’t paid all that much attention to American Idol.  I’d watch snippets of the occasional show just to see what everyone was talking about, and tune in for the final few episodes to see who’d become the next American Idol, but wasn’t all that impressed with the caliber of performers, and with some exceptions haven’t thought they’re nearly as talented as the musicians I interview on Alive with Clive.  I even wrote a Press Release, which you can read when you click here, to express this view.

A few weeks ago, however, when I was at the TV studio in White Plains where I tape interviews for Alive with Clive, Keith Baker, one of the production supervisors, said to me:  “Clive, did you know that Michael Lynche is doing really well on American Idol?

I interviewed Michael Lynche on Alive with Clive on September 26, 2008, and Keith had remembered that he had been on Alive with Clive.

Sheepishly, I had to acknowledge that I wasn’t aware of that.

So upon my return home that day, I immediately did a Google search for “Michael Lynche American Idol.”

To my dismay, the first item my search revealed was a report that Michael Lynche was disqualified from American Idol because his father leaked word to the press in Florida that he had made it into the Top 24, in violation of the rules of American Idol.

“What a bummer,” I thought to myself.

But then the voice inside my head said, “that can’t be true.  Check some more.”  And check some more I did.

It turned out that the first item I saw was a rumor that was false.

I then found a clip of Michael’s most recent performance on American Idol on the Internet and saw that the American Idol judges, Randy Jackson, Ellen DeGeneres, Kara DioGuardi, and especially Simon Cowell, are all impressed with him. 

In the last two weeks, I have watched almost the entire broadcasts of American Idol, and it’s clear to me that Michael is in fact one of the favorites to be the next American Idol.

His last two performances have been rock solid and he is definitely a polished and accomplished performer.

Since Michael has been interviewed on Alive with Clive, he is also a contender for a slot in The Alive with Clive Top 20.  Unfortunately, however, he isn’t shaping nearly as well in The Alive with Clive Top 20 as he is on American Idol.

At the moment, he is languishing in 41st position, among the contenders with the least number of votes, with just 22 votes.  By way of contrast, Serotonen, the band at the top of The Alive with Clive Top 20 Chart, has 5,380.

So, now, here’s the $64,000 question, which I have posed in my latest Press Release: 

“Will American Idol’s Michael Lynche Be # 1 in The Alive with Clive Top 20?”

To read this Press Release, click here.

Since millions of fans tune into American Idol each week, and many of them are probably becoming fans of Michael, it’s possible that when they realize that Michael doesn’t yet have enough votes to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20, they will rush to support him and vote for him on a daily basis.  For Michael’s sake, let’s hope they do!  And whether or not he is the next American Idol, it would be great for him if he ends up at the top of The Alive with Clive Top 20 too!

In case his fans would like to see his interview on Alive with Clive, I have made a DVD of his interview available for sale for just $19.97, before shipping and handling.

As many of you know, I am also in the midst of launching the first “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt to turn votes for musicians to be in The Alive with Clive Top 20 into dollars for people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.  I am selling the T-shirt for $19.97, before shipping and handling, too.

For a limited time, though, I have decided to create a special offer

Order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt with the DVD, Michael Lynche on Alive with Clive, and pay just $34.97, including shipping and handling.  That gives fans of Michael Lynche a saving of 60% on the purchase price of the DVD, and $5 from every sale of these two items together will be contributed to people affected by HIV/AIDS in South Africa.  To order these two items, the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt, and the DVD, Michael Lynche on Alive with Clive, together now, click here.

The T-shirt and DVD will be shipped together after the T-shirt has gone into production, and people who purchase a T-shirt with the DVD of my interview with Michael Lynche will gain access to the bonuses and be eligible for the discounts I’ve outlined at http://alivewithclive.tv/votestodollars.htm, but won’t qualify for other benefits being made available to the “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt launchers described on that Web page or at http://alivewithclive.tv/tshirtlaunchers.htm.

To take advantage of this limited-time opportunity to order an “I’m Alive with Clive” T-shirt together with the DVD, Michael Lynche on Alive with Clive, click here.

Best regards.
