				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0611-pedersen_72dpi.jpg" border="0" alt="" title="Charismatic Eating" class="alignright" align="right" /> NEW YORK, N.Y., June 11, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Super-food &#8220;Kale&#8221; (ISBN: 978-1454906254) author and rising star holistic health personality Stephanie Pedersen shares how the power of food can attract more of the good things in life with &#8220;Charismatic Eating,&#8221; during her featured presentation at the State of Now Conference, #140You, June 18-19, at the 92nd Street YMCA.</p>
<p>&#8220;Eating for Charisma is the secret no one talks about,&#8221; says Pedersen. &#8220;When you lose weight, get fit and get glowing, you increase your magnetism.&#8221;</p>
<p>When you increase you magnetism, almost anything becomes possible, she explains.</p>
<p>&#8220;Once you change your health, you become an irresistible magnet for success -in love, money, career and life,&#8221; Pedersen says. &#8220;You become more charismatic, and everyone you come in contact with responds to your presence in increasingly positive ways with equally positive outcomes.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;Charismatic Eating&#8221; is a featured presentation at the #140You conference, with its focus on &#8220;Health, Wellness, Fitness &amp; Food.&#8221; The conference is for individuals considering a beneficial life change, but who seek the inspiration &#8211; and extra push &#8211; they need to move forward and start their journey to looking and feeling great.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;ll take a personal look at how the health, fitness, wellness and food influencers affect us directly,&#8221; says Jeff Keni Pulver, conference organizer. &#8220;It&#8217;s a very exciting time, and &#8216;Charismatic Eating&#8217; is an exciting topic.&#8221;</p>
<p>Pulver says attendees will be totally jazzed by what they learn from Pedersen.</p>
<p>&#8220;When Stephanie shares her perspectives on food and healthy living, she gives voice to a transformative experience and exploration of personal wellness underwritten by passion for the process and joy for the journey,&#8221; Pulver says. &#8220;When she talks about food, we want to have what she&#8217;s having.&#8221;</p>
<p>Consciously choosing food to increase personal charisma has its own rewards, says Pedersen.</p>
<p><strong>She offers five actions individuals can perform right now to increase their charisma:</strong></p>
<p>1. Worship green food. Salad greens, kale, spinach, collards, cabbage, broccoli and more, these foods are filled with the potent nutrient chlorophyll. Chlorophyll helps remove energy-sapping, mood-altering toxins from the body, increases oxygen in the blood, and creates a glow that people are drawn to. </p>
<p>2. Dump chemical foods. Have you ever heard the saying &#8220;You are what you eat&#8221;? Would you rather be a succulent, vibrant, juicy mango or crispy, crunchy, brightly colored red pepper? Or a spoonful of phosphoric acid, calcium chloride, monosodium glutamate, or soy protein hydrolyzed? Our body was not built to metabolize or use chemicals. The body was created to eat whole foods, leaving us alert, intuitive, grounded, happy and energetic. </p>
<p>3. Fall in love with chia. This little seed was sacred to the Aztecs, who used it to increase their performance and endurance. Today, used to help treat cardiovascular disorders and joint pain, it has become popular among endurance athletes who need sustained energy. Chia is packed with omega-3 fatty acids, high levels of protein and a range of powerful skin enhancing antioxidants.</p>
<p>4. Break up with coffee. Coffee is America&#8217;s drug of choice. It fuels us, makes us productive, is our easiest legal addiction. Plus, it tastes good. More than a cup a day damages your personal charisma. A powerful diuretic, coffee draws moisture from body tissues. Coffee can also play tricks with your blood sugar, causing powerful simple-carb-cravings. </p>
<p>5. Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! Water flushes stored toxins that make you bloated, foggy and fatigued. Water also keeps the body lubricated and moist-good for brain function, blood building, bright eyes and pretty skin. Being well-hydrated also fuels your own personal energy -which happens to be essential in creating and maintaining charisma. Eight six-ounce glasses of water is ideal. Think water is boring? Add lemon or lime juice, or cucumber slices. Keep handy at all times.</p>
<p>&#8220;I believe food should make us feel incredible,&#8221; says Pedersen. &#8220;If it doesn&#8217;t, then we&#8217;re not living up to our full potential. If we change our relationship with food, we can create the life we&#8217;ve always imagined.&#8221;</p>
<p>An increasingly in-demand speaker, Pedersen&#8217;s new book, &#8220;Kale: The Complete Guide to the World&#8217;s Most Powerful Superfood,&#8221; debuted June 4 to rave reviews. Attendees at the &#8220;Charismatic Eating&#8221; seminar will have a rare opportunity to enjoy Pedersen&#8217;s unforgettable delivery style and have their questions asked and answered live and in person. &#8220;Charismatic Eating&#8221; is scheduled for 2:40 p.m. on June 18. Additionally, Pedersen will be in attendance for the duration of the conference.</p>
<p>Stephanie Pedersen shares &#8220;Charismatic Eating&#8221; at the #140You, State of Now conference, &#8220;Health, Wellness, Fitness &amp; Food,&#8221; June 18-19, 2013 at the 92nd Street YMCA, 1395 Lexington Ave. For information on Stephanie Pedersen, visit <a href="http://www.StephaniePedersen.com/" class="autohyperlink" title="http://www.StephaniePedersen.com/" target="_blank">http://www.StephaniePedersen.com/</a> .

		<description><![CDATA[NEW YORK CITY, N.Y., June 4, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- Award-winning crime author Ron Chepesiuk goes into depth to investigate the unsolved disappearance of the legendary drug kingpin Frank Matthews with his new book, "Black Caesar: The Rise and Disappearance of Frank Matthews, Kingpin" (ISBN: 978-0-9852440-1-9 / 10-digit ISBN 0-9852440-1-1) from Strategic Media Books.]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0604-Chepesiuk_300x250.jpg" border="0" alt="author Ron Chepesiuk" title="author Ron Chepesiuk" class="alignright" align="right" />NEW YORK CITY, N.Y., June 4, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Award-winning crime author Ron Chepesiuk goes into depth to investigate the unsolved disappearance of the legendary drug kingpin Frank Matthews with his new book, &#8220;Black Caesar: The Rise and Disappearance of Frank Matthews, Kingpin&#8221; (ISBN: 978-0-9852440-1-9 / 10-digit ISBN 0-9852440-1-1) from Strategic Media Books. With an undercover reporting style that leaves no stone unturned, Chepesiuk&#8217;s determined crack at unraveling one of the underworld&#8217;s biggest unsolved mysteries makes for a fascinating and intriguing read. </p>
<p>It was July 2, 1973, when Frank Matthews, history&#8217;s first African American drug kingpin, jumped bail in New York City with $15 to $20 million &#8211; the equivalent of $80 million to $90 million in today&#8217;s money. It is believed he took his beautiful mistress, Cheryl Brown with him. </p>
<p>Interestingly, though Matthews is undisputedly the longest missing fugitive in DEA history, another figure from the &#8217;70&#8242;s, Assata Shakur, just recently made headlines by being placed on the FBI&#8217;s Most Wanted Terrorists list. A 66-year old Black woman, Shakur&#8217;s reward is set for two million dollars. The reward for 69-year old Frank Matthews, the target of one of the largest manhunts in U.S. law enforcement history, is a mere $20,000. He remains at large and his disappearance is a complete mystery. He has never made any &#8220;Most Wanted&#8221; list.</p>
<p>Many believe Shakur was erroneously convicted for the murder of a state trooper. But there is no mistaking the fact that the narcotics Matthews helped funnel into African American communities across America continues to leave a trail of devastation, betrayal, death and despair. In each case it has been forty years. And so goes the continued urban legend of Frank Matthews, perhaps the most authentic American Gangster of them all. </p>
<p>Matthews&#8217; literally dominated the heroin market in the &#8217;70&#8242;s. A country boy from North Carolina, Matthew operated out of New York with a drug empire that spanned 21 states with overseas contacts for heroin and cocaine. A boss of bosses, the DEA ranks him as one of the Top Ten drug traffickers in United States history. A young man in his twenties at the time, Matthews was one of the first major independents who challenged the La Cosa Nostra for supremacy in the criminal underworld. The streets deemed him, &#8220;Black Caesar&#8221; as he was the first Black man bold, astute and confident enough to control an interstate organization of its size, independent of the Mob that ruled all.</p>
<p>Chepesiuk follows the trail left cold, retracing Matthew&#8217;s criminal path with the nose of a bloodhound. His interviews with DEA agents, Federal Marshals, aging ex-drug kingpins, friends, families and associates are perhaps the most in-depth gathering of details about this nefariously historic figure ever compiled. The book explores a host of nagging questions. How was Matthews able to operate for several years without being detected? What was his relationship with La Cosa Nostra? Why did the CIA get involved in the Matthews investigation? What happened to Cheryl Brown? Why has the mystery of his disappearance been so difficult to solve? And while the questions are explored and answered, &#8220;Black Caesar: The Rise and Disappearance of Frank Matthews, Kingpin&#8221; colorfully captures the vivid imagery, drama and intrigue of the era, entangling the reader in a real life thriller.</p>
<p>&#8220;Ron Chepesiuk is to true crime books what Nas is to the hip-hop world,&#8221; offers Seth Ferranti author of &#8220;Gorilla Convict: The Prison Writings of Seth Ferranti,&#8221; who provides the gripping foreword for the book. &#8220;He writes like a lyrical poet examining issues in popular culture in both a historical and scholastic context.&#8221; </p>
<p>A two-time Fulbright Scholar, film producer and author of several true crime books, including &#8220;Drug Lords,&#8221; &#8220;Sergeant Smack&#8221; and &#8220;Queenpins,&#8221; Ron Chepesiuk ( <a href="http://www.ronchepesiuk.com" class="autohyperlink" title="http://www.ronchepesiuk.com" target="_blank">www.ronchepesiuk.com</a> ) is also a consultant to the History Channel&#8217;s &#8220;Gangland&#8221; documentary series and the executive producer and co-host of popular radio show &#8220;Crime Beat&#8221; ( <a href="http://www.artistfirst.com/crimebeat.htm" class="autohyperlink" title="http://www.artistfirst.com/crimebeat.htm" target="_blank">http://www.artistfirst.com/crimebeat.htm</a> ). An authoritative crime historian, Chepesiuk is a native of Thunder Bay, Canada currently based in South Carolina. He brings a wealth of insight and observation to the account of the missing Frank Matthews. He has also written a screenplay based on the Frank Matthews story. </p>
<p>Dead or alive, we may never know the ultimate truth about Matthews, but thanks to Chepesiuk, every speculation in between is resolved in &#8220;Black Caesar: The Rise and Disappearance of Frank Matthews, Kingpin.&#8221; The FBI may be targeting Assata Shakur, but Frank Matthews is the true gangster Most Wanted!</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0604-surv-wildfire-300x250.jpg" border="0" alt="Surviving Wildfire" title="Surviving Wildfire" class="alignright" align="right" />LOVELAND, Colo., June 4, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Increasing wildfire danger, persistent drought and cuts to Federal fire-fighting resources are making Linda Masterson&#8217;s newly released book, &#8220;Surviving Wildfire&#8221; (ISBN: 978-1-936555-15-4; PixyJack Press), a practical prescription for homeowners living with wildfire risk who want to know how to be better prepared, stay alive when wildfire threatens and have what they&#8217;ll really need to start over if disaster strikes. </p>
<p>&#8220;Surviving Wildfire should be required reading for anyone who lives in the WUI,&#8221; says Fourmile Canyon Fire Recovery Manager Garry Sanfacon. </p>
<p>Masterson&#8217;s Colorado home burned to the ground in 2011. &#8220;My husband and I lost everything but each other. On the road to recovery we had to come to terms with all the things we should and could have done that would&#8217;ve made starting over much easier,&#8221; says Masterson. &#8220;I wrote &#8216;Surviving Wildfire&#8217; so no one else will have to learn those lessons the hard way.&#8221; </p>
<p>One of those valuable lessons is unraveling how home insurance really works in a major loss and the high price many homeowners pay for being underinsured and undocumented. </p>
<p>No one believes their home will burn down in a wildfire, but every year thousands of homes do. Research shows that more than half of the people who stand in the ashes of their dreams discover that they don&#8217;t have enough insurance to rebuild their home and replace everything they lost. </p>
<p>Masterson uses down-to-earth language to explain the difference between replacement cost and actual cash value, what the various schedules actually cover, and how to make sure your home is adequately insured, your stuff is properly documented and you have all the information you&#8217;ll need to start over. If your home is damaged or destroyed, insider tips show how to collect everything due under the terms of your insurance policy.</p>
<p>Other tips for being better prepared include how to create and maintain the right amount of defensible space and steps you can take now to give your home a better chance of surviving a fire. From using gravel mulch, non-flammable deck furniture and smart landscaping to installing visible address signs and registering all phones for reverse 911 calls, &#8220;Surviving Wildfire&#8221; gives valuable information you can put to use now, including simple ways to document all your belongings, back up your computer files, and then safely store all data off-site.</p>
<p>&#8220;&#8216;Surviving Wildfire&#8217;&#8221; also covers how to create a family disaster plan and assemble your personal Vital Information and Emergency kits, so you&#8217;ll know what to do, what to take, and how and when to safely evacuate when wildfire threatens. There&#8217;s even a sobering look at how to survive if you are trapped at home, in your car or out in the open. The appendix includes numerous resources for homeowners.</p>
<p>&#8220;The combination of the author&#8217;s real-life experience and her diligent research makes Surviving Wildfire a very helpful handbook for people living with the risk of wildfire,&#8221; says Michele Steinberg, National Manager of the Firewise Communities Program.</p>
<p>&#8220;Surviving Wildfire: Get Prepared, Stay Alive, Rebuild Your Life (A Handbook for Homeowners)&#8221; by Linda Masterson is published by <a href="http://pixyjackpress.com/">PixyJack Press</a>. A companion pocket guide, &#8220;Get Wildfire Smart,&#8221; is also available. (Book $16.95; Book with Pocket Guide $19.95).

In the two gritty tales, private eye Ford Fairlane, the music industry&#8217;s &#8220;rock n roll detective,&#8221; solves cases involving the punk rock and new wave scenes in New York City and Los Angeles in the late-1970&#8242;s.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0509-awca-book_72dpi.jpg" border="0" alt="Aloha Wanderwell" title="Aloha Wanderwell" class="alignright" align="right" />NEWPORT BEACH, Calif., May 9, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Starting at the age of 16, Aloha Wanderwell Baker became the first woman to travel around the globe in an automobile. &#8220;Aloha Wanderwell: Call to Adventure&#8221; (ISBN: 978-1484118801) is a new book published by the Nile Baker Estate and Boyd Production Group that journals those adventures. </p>
<p>In her own words, Aloha Wanderwell Baker recounts the true story of a fantastic seven-year journey around the world that took place in the 1920s in a Model-T Ford while traveling with the Wanderwell Expedition. </p>
<p>In some ways, Aloha could be considered the &#8220;Amelia Earhart of the Automobile.&#8221; While Amelia circled the globe in the air, Aloha faced her dangers, trials and tribulations down on the ground&#8230;and she did it first.</p>
<p>The book contains Aloha&#8217;s 1939 memoir, &#8220;Call to Adventure,&#8221; in addition to exclusive essays, photos and supplemental materials from the author&#8217;s estate. </p>
<p>Readers will travel with Aloha to Europe, the Middle East, India, Japan, China, the Soviet Union, the United States, Cuba and Africa. They will experience, firsthand, the details of her love affair with Captain Walter Wanderwell, a self-proclaimed adventurer, whom she married in 1925 during the American leg of the expedition. </p>
<p>Aloha recaptures pieces of history that include traveling through Italy while Mussolini and the Fascisti were consolidating their power; braving food riots and hostile mobs in Germany; and driving into Palestine, where the Jews were attempting to build a new nation; and more. </p>
<p>During her travels, Aloha disguised herself as a man and prayed in Mecca; she became a confidante of Chinese bandits; and was granted the title of &#8220;Honorary Colonel&#8221; in the Red Army of Siberia. This is only the tip of the iceberg. </p>
<p>&#8220;The book has it all,&#8221; Richard Diamond, Aloha&#8217;s grandson and also founder of <a href="http://AlohaWanderwell.com" class="autohyperlink" title="http://AlohaWanderwell.com" target="_blank">AlohaWanderwell.com</a>, says. &#8220;There&#8217;s adventure, intrigue, romance and murder.&#8221; </p>
<p>&#8220;Aloha Wanderwell: Call to Adventure&#8221; is a book that appeals to a wide audience: adventure travel enthusiasts, car buffs, romance readers, people curious about women&#8217;s history and others. </p>

The transition into the virtual world will hopefully prove to be successful upon the book&#8217;s re-release into the eMarket and will truly mold Ozee&#8217;s future for the better.</p>
<p>Newspapers like My Suburban Life, The Lombardian, Lemont Report, and The Addison Press, have already featured this poet in multiple issues, but Ozee is still seeking that one golden moment of fame.</p>
<p>Beginning to write so young, Ozee always found converting his inner thoughts and feelings into the written word was the best way to show others his intelligence. At the simple age of 5, Ozee had begun to develop a series of children stories, dealing with fictitious characters such as &#8220;Arro&#8221; and &#8220;The Hungry Grab.&#8221; Later on, Ozee would alter his direction from children&#8217;s books and into short stories, and within just a short year, between the ages of 9 and 10, he handwrote over 35 short stories, each ranging between 10-30 pages in length. </p>
<p>Ozee&#8217;s parents immediately noticed that this wasn&#8217;t just another hobby for him, that it was something more than an average skill, but a creative gift that would forever remain within his grasps for years to come. &#8220;Never did I think that he would actually make something out of all this, I mean, it astounds me just to see him achieving so much within such a short amount of time,&#8221; said Ozee&#8217;s mother. </p>
<p>Challenging himself, Ozee tested his skill on all ends, attempting to construct both fictional and non-fictional novels at the steady ages of 12 and 13, but never published them due to lack in grammatical efficiency and financial contributions. Though Ozee was compelled to overcome many obstacles along the way, it didn&#8217;t stop him one bit from discovering, in the early months of his 14th year, that poetry was his true calling in the written world. </p>
<p>Teachers from both his eighth grade and freshman classes took strong interests in Ozee&#8217;s work and requested if he would reward their ears with fresh and youthful words of poetic beauty. Eventually, Ozee&#8217;s desire to one day become one of the youngest published authors in the world at last came true in February 2012, halfway through his sophomore year, by self-publishing his first titles with world-leading online self-publishing company, Lulu. </p>
<p>Since then, Ozee has continued to be recognized around the world for his inspirational success and consistent creativity in the poetry-publishing industry.

		<description><![CDATA[LOS ANGELES, Calif., April 2, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- According to retirement crisis expert and author Karl Kim, CFP, CLTC, each year thousands of people are thrust into a 'care crisis' when a family member or loved one needs long-term care. The challenge is not only finding the right nursing home; what can be even more challenging is figuring out how to pay for the care - and how to minimize possible damage to the rest of the family.]]></description>
				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0402-dontgobroke_72dpi.jpg" border="0" alt="Medi-Cal Recovery" title="Medi-Cal Recovery" class="alignright" align="right" />LOS ANGELES, Calif., April 2, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; According to retirement crisis expert and author Karl Kim, CFP, CLTC, each year thousands of people are thrust into a &#8220;care crisis&#8221; when a family member or loved one needs long-term care. The challenge is not only finding the right nursing home; what can be even more challenging is figuring out how to pay for the care &#8211; and how to minimize possible damage to the rest of the family. </p>
<p>&#8220;That information isn&#8217;t easy to find,&#8221; says retirement crisis planner Karl Kim, CFP, CLTC. &#8220;Every year I speak with hundreds of adult children and their parents who have gotten bad advice, or who don&#8217;t know where to turn for answers. That&#8217;s the reason I wrote &#8216;Don&#8217;t Go Broke Paying the Nursing Home.&#8217; Now every Californian can understand what needs to be done to protect their home, cash and retirement accounts.&#8221;</p>
<p>Karl Kim&#8217;s book is an easy-to-read quick reference guide. It provides answers in simple language to common questions such as:</p>
<p>* What information do you need to provide to Medi-Cal?<br />
* Do you need an attorney to submit the application?<br />
* What is the maximum amount a person or couple can have to qualify for Medi-Cal?<br />
* What is the difference between Medicare, Medicaid and Medi-Cal?<br />
* Which assets count and which don&#8217;t?<br />
* What is the maximum amount of income a person can have and still qualify?<br />
* When does someone apply? <br />
* How long does the application process take?<br />
* Do you have to be broke to qualify for Medi-Cal?</p>
<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t Go Broke Paying the Nursing Home&#8221; (ISBN: 978-0988902619) explains Medi-Cal Recovery procedures.</p>
<p>&#8220;Most people don&#8217;t realize Medi-Cal is effectively a loan from the State of California,&#8221; explains Kim. &#8220;If proper steps aren&#8217;t taken, the state will place a claim against the home and other assets.&#8221;</p>
<p>California&#8217;s regulations covering the aging population can be difficult to keep up with. That becomes apparent in a care crisis &#8211; when what a family has &#8220;done wrong&#8221; can come back to bite them &#8211; financially and logistically. </p>
<p>The book is available in paperback and Kindle on Amazon: <a href="http://amzn.com/0988902613" class="autohyperlink" title="http://amzn.com/0988902613" target="_blank">http://amzn.com/0988902613</a> . </p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0325-conniebk_72dpi.jpg" border="0" alt="Connie Baxter Marlow" title="Connie Baxter Marlow" class="alignright" align="right" />ASPEN, Colo., March 25, 2013 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Cameron/Baxter Books announces the worldwide launch of the paradigm-shifting book &#8220;<a href="http://thetrustfrequency.net/the-trust-frequency-book">THE TRUST FREQUENCY: 10 Assumptions for a New Paradigm</a>&#8221; (ISBN: 978-0-988747-1-3) at Explore Booksellers in Aspen, Colorado, March 29 at 5:30 p.m. <a href="http://thetrustfrequency.net/foreword-by-sally-ranney">Sally A. Ranney</a>, visionary environmental leader and author of the foreword to the book, will speak on the need for fundamental, whole-systems change to enable global-level collaboration for solving climate change, the most far-reaching crisis in human history. Co-authors <a href="http://thetrustfrequency.net/2012-consciousness-shift-3">Connie Baxter Marlow and Andrew Cameron Bailey</a> will discuss the paradigm they present in the book at this celebration and book signing.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.eraglobalalliance.org/principals.html">Ranney has thirty years of experience</a> within the private and public sectors dedicated to environmental, water and energy policy; sustainability; biodiversity and wildlife protection; and public land management and environmental consulting. She is President of the American Renewable Energy Institute (AREI) and Co-Director of the International Women&#8217;s Earth and Climate Initiative (IWECI). Taking a whole systems approach, Sally has advised business leaders at some of the world&#8217;s largest companies on improving their environmental practices and performances by incorporating these considerations into company decisions. She has worked directly with three U.S. Presidents as well as leading environmental luminaries like Richard Branson, Ted Turner and Al Gore.  </p>
<p>&#8220;Climate change has, unambiguously, put humanity on notice that we are on the cusp of great change, of making a critical choice about ourselves. Only collaboration at the global level will solve climate change, because it affects all human and natural systems. Nothing and no one will escape. This high level of collaboration can only take place if we let go of the tenets of the existing paradigm,&#8221; states Ranney in the foreword to &#8220;The Trust Frequency.&#8221;</p>
<p>Aspen, Colorado has been home to many world change agents over the decades. As Aspen&#8217;s premier book store, Explore Booksellers hosts the nation&#8217;s leading authors, scientists and social commentators, from today&#8217;s bestsellers and Pulitzer Prize winners to world leaders and renowned experts in their fields.  Marlow, Bailey and Ranney take their place on the world stage with a new vision of the nature of reality with a bold theory of humanity&#8217;s place in a conscious loving universe; how examining and upgrading our belief system will change everything from education to business practices to climate change solutions, resulting in a currently unimaginable level of abundance and happiness.</p>
<p><img src="http://www.send2press.com/mediaboom/13-0325-conniebk2_72dpi.jpg" align="left" style="margin-right:20px" alt="THE TRUST FREQUENCY" />Marlow and Bailey, filmmakers and social philosophers who have been sharing their ideas at universities and symposia throughout the country for decades, call their new paradigm &#8220;a synthesis of quantum science, Eastern mysticism, indigenous cosmology and intuitive knowing.&#8221; Coming from divergent life experiences, they have reached similar conclusions: the prevailing paradigm is missing important information about the nature of reality, and this has resulted in a world out of balance. They challenge a number of basic assumptions which have driven humanity&#8217;s behavior for millennia and offer a new paradigm for consideration.</p>
<p>The three authors are Colorado-based and currently live in the Roaring Fork Valley, outside Aspen.</p>
