Flag OTC They put out their news like this now. Glad to see they are still promoting getting employees of scientology businesses onto services. It's always been a big success. I want one of those OTC pens they gave out for Christmas. It would be a perfect match for my IAS sunglasses. And SuperPower koozie. ANOTHER new game... They have had the "Matching Game" and the "Infinity Game" and now "50 for LRH's Birthday." It just never seems to get any closer. Scots Humor Strange would be an understatement. But then again, they do eat haggis. Don't get … [Read more...]
Pleeeeeease Come Back…
With a special offer like this -- a FREE 6 month membership (that anyone gets just for turning over their name and email address) -- how could you resist? But you have to get in NOW because this "offer" only lasts until 31 December. At that point they will send out a "new" offer of a free 6 month membership. Even something as stupid as this has to be a lie. But of course, this IS "the most successful and effective group in the world." Also the most modest. And honest. One thing that IS interesting is that it proves they have records of EVERYONE, and pretty accurate ones. This … [Read more...]
IAS Fraud
Here is a fabulous sounding quote the IAS is using to convince the sheeple "LRH wanted them to give their money to the IAS." These people will stop at nothing to vacuum money from the gullible. LRH knew NOTHING about the IAS. It was an accounting creation in 1984 to keep money away from the IRS. By the time of his death in 1986 it still wasn't really public. And he certainly didn't write anything about it. So what IS this quote about and where does it come from? You probably would not be surprised to learn that it is taken from something LRH wrote about fees for ORG SERVICES … [Read more...]
The 30th Anniversary IAS Event
We have already reported about the downgrade of the IAS Event - see The IAS Event Is Already A Bomb from 8 October. It is one thing to downgrade the 30th Anniversary of the IAS celebration to the parking lot on LRH Way, but its a total train wreck when the Flag event is suffering a similar, even more ignoble downsizing. They are not going to be holding this event at the Ruth Eckerd Hall but instead at the Fort Harrison.... The Auditorium there holds 1500 people. They claim to have more STAFF than this and "2000 people from out of town on service at any given time" PLUS 12,000 sc … [Read more...]
We Are Filming The Procession
Hahaha. They just raised the quota from 7,000 to 10,000 because Dear Leader pr0nounced that 10,000 should be in attendance. So, whether there are 500 or 5,000 people that show up (they are being HEAVILY pushed from ALL OVER THE WORLD to attend) it will "officially" be 10,000 in attendance. They will stage a bunch of shots as usual where the frame is filled with bodies and you cannot see the surroundings so there is no way of telling how many there are. But they will assert the shots are "proof" of the massive attendance for the monumental event. It is really crass that they even … [Read more...]
Monumental Announcement Under The Big Top
It is hardly a surprise that there is a lot of hype about the upcoming IAS "Big Top" circus event. There is hype for every event. And the next event is always so much better than the last one. But a few people have reported that there is talk of a "monumental announcement" similar to the announcement of "Golden Age Of Tech" for "our 4th dynamic programs." Now, this could of course just be typical "call-in" patter and the "monumental announcement" will be a new DVD and booklet "exposing psych crimes" that is going to be mailed out to "every opinion leader on earth." And I don't doubt there w … [Read more...]

Nation of Islam taking over Tampa Org? This is the latest news from the Tampa model ideal org's St Petersburg "Life Improvement Center." For those of you who do not live in the area, St Petersburg is NOT Harlem or South Central LA. This is either a 50's throwback and they have segregated courserooms, or its a collection of NOI people who showed up en masse on Tuesday evening based on orders from their superiors (and judging from their attire, it is the latter). They are the ONLY public present and the only white people are the Tampa Org staff. Also for those who don't know, this … [Read more...]

Surrounded by Suppression Another must miss event. Daphna really has a bee in her bonnet about all the "suppression" that is around. Maybe she has a computer and googled scientology? Those SPs are everywhere, just waiting to pounce! Again, why is an Advanced Org resorting to promoting a seminar delivered by an FSM? Where is Julian Shwartz? Isn't he the expert on handling suppression at AOLA? Arise Sir Knight Yes, that is John Danilovich, Captain AOSHUK waving a sword. Apparently the latest status in the UK is to kneel before John who touches the sword to your shoulders and … [Read more...]

Here is the roundup of the ridiculous that doesn't fit in daily posts -- and there is a lot more that is left out and I try to avoid using anything that has appeared elsewhere. Gavin Potter Is Everywhere If this guy knows so much and is so good at telling everyone how to get things done, how come the Freewinds is regging public for money to buy fuel so they can sail? Money, money, money.... Michael Lewis is giving a seminar at AOLA (because they don't have any staff competent to do it) Wonder what his dreams were for his son? Really? This is the best AOLA can … [Read more...]
The Miscavige IAS Scam Rolls On
The latest edition of Impact magazine has been mailed out. It is a recounting of the magnificent IAS evening aboard the Freewinds. Of course, it highlights "Mr. David Miscavige" though these days they don't bother with identifying him in the 7 full page photoshopped pix featuring his new thin look. The weight of the world seems to be resting upon his shoulders and it is showing. This was a veritable shermanspeak orgy, and while I am not going to recount everything here, I am including his opening and closing statements for your reading pleasure (amazement?). If you cannot read these, … [Read more...]
