Here’s a great quote fom John Coleman, a meteorologist and founder of the Weather Channel: “It is the greatest scam in history. I am amazed, appalled and highly offended by it. Global Warming; It is a SCAM. Some dastardly scientists with environmental and political motives manipulated long term scientific data to create in allusion of […]
NY Times Drowning in Red Ink
Despite layoffs of about 500 people in 2005, the NY Times (in my opinion the most dishonest, corrupt and immoral of all American newspapers) is drowning in red ink. Here’s an article about the NY Times that has a graph showing the NY Times stock price over the last couple of years. As one of […]
Arkansas planning suit against Eli Lily for Psych drug Zyprexa
Here’s a good bit of news. The State of Arkansas, according to the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, plans a lawsuit against three drug firms, including Eli Lily, for fraud over a “marketing scheme” for anti-psychotic drugs. Basically the Attorney General (Dustin McDaniel) told lawmakers Friday he’s planning a lawsuit against the makers of Zyprexa, Risperdal and Seroquel. […]
Ban ADHD drugs, not Tag
Tony Zizza writes an excellent on Reality Check [original article taken down] about how a school in Colorado has banned tag on its playground, supposedly because “some children complained they were harassed or chased against their will.” Tony says: Ban ADHD drugs, not tag. That’s right. You would have to be a moron with a […]
What is Scientology?
I get asked this question quite a bit: “What is Scientology?” For many years I would reply with the response I learned in the Scientology catechism over 30 years ago, when I became a minister of the Church of Scientology of California. (And yes, we do have a catechism). I would say, “Scientology is an […]
Good luck to this teacher… she’s gonna need it!
A teacher in Medford, Oregon (about three hours from where we live) has a concealed weapons permit. But her school board, in its infinite wisdom, has warned her that she is not allowed to carry her weapon on school grounds. Apparently they didn’t get word of what happened at Vtech, Columbine, or up in Springfield, […]
What Scientologists believe
No, it’s not some kooky mind-control cult. Any one of the tens of thousands of practicing Scientologists in the United States will give you his or her own viewpoint about it. If they were all mind controlled, wouldn’t they give you the same story? It’s always different, from one person to another, how they got […]
Mark Joyner’s “The Irresistible OFFER”
I am reading Mark Joyner’s “The Irresistible OFFER – How to Sell your Product or Service in 3 Seconds or Less!” It makes a lot of sense and it ties in neatly with all the branding and positioning info I’ve learned from Al Ries and Jack Trout over the years. It also ties in nicely […]
Scientology books revised & re-released
A revolutionary action has occurred in Scientology within the last month. Those responsible for maintaining the integrity of the materials of Scientology (that’s the Religious Technology Center, to whom L. Ron Hubbard left the rights to all the materials he developed over his long and prodigious life) recently completed a major project where they went […]
Psychiatrist Airs his Doubts
Here are some quotes from Dr. Michael Benjamin, a psychiatrist who’s been practicing for 38 years: “As a Psychiatrist, I still do not know what our profession is trying to do. It seems we have a series of solutions and now we are trying to find the problems that they can solve….” “There is no […]
