Santa's naughty list now officially includes any kids that take or promote drug use. On December 1st, 2006 Santa Claus was officially sworn in as a "Drug Free Marshal" along with hundreds of other parents and children at the 13th annual Winter Wonderland in Clearwater. Joe Brady, former lieutenant of the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office and past president of Fraternal Order of Police, did the honors. >>
The world is factually driven by the benevolent actions of people the world over who help their fellow man.
Here is to all of us, who live to help.

Why Read a Scientology or Dianetics Book?
You've probably heard a good deal about Scientology.
And I wouldn't be surprised if you know a Scientologist.
If you do, chances are you like the person and may have been curious about why he or she is a Scientologist

David Miscavige Interview
I ran across this interview of David Miscavige on YouTube. I saw it in 1992 and it was great to see it again.
David Miscavige is a natural leader, but what he's accomplished in the last 20 years since he became Chairman of the Board of RTC (Religious Technology Center) is remarkable.
And I think the reason he is so successful is that he applies Scientology 100% standardly.
There has been lots of interest in Scientology weddings, with the recent marriage of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.
As a Scientology ministers I have performed many weddings in the past. And the thing that differentiates a Scientology wedding from any other marriage ceremony is that it offers advice to the couple to help them create their marriage and keep it bright, alive and full of the same joy they are experiencing on their wedding day.
That tool is a discovery of L. Ron Hubbard called "The ARC Triange." Pronounced A- R- C not "arc" it stands for Affinity, Reality and Communication.
Here is a link to an article on ARC that tells what it is all about and how it works.
And here's a clip of the Today show where they talk about the wedding (prior to it happening) and what the service is like.
