La Fever, Jeanne . Issaquah, WA 98029
Although we still know comparatively little about Jeanne La Fever, thiscorporation turned up in the Florida Sunbiz
database, which seems to be co-owned by Jeanne and Syl La
Fever:
LAFEVER DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION

Stop Shoppe and the Clearwater offices of fellow Slatkin investors -
and Scientologists - The Warner Sisters.
Lacy, Linwood A . Midlothian, VA 23113
Linwood Lacy is a director of Earthlink, and was an early investor in
the company. There is no indication that he is a Scientologist. Here is
his bio from Earthlink filings with the SEC:
LINWOOD A. LACY, JR. has been a director of the Company since
June 1996.
Since October 1996, he has served as President and Chief Executive
Officer of Micro Warehouse Incorporated. From 1989 to May

Laing, RE Bert . Santa Barbara, CA 93108
Laing, Robert . Santa Barbara, CA 93108
There is a Bert Laing who is a Scientologist and OT7, and also a Lyn
Laing.
Possibly coincidentally, there is a Robert E. Laing who goes by the
name “Bert” who is the CEO
of LincCapital, a venture capital firm in Chicago.
Lake, John & Chris . Granada Hills, CA 91344
John and Chris are Scientologists, and Patrons of the IAS, as John Lake
and Christine A. Lake. John Lake is a former Guardian's Office staffer.
Here he is, portrayed as a frightened victim of the FBI raid on Scn
following the GO spy-ring discovery:
""I was frightened by his demands, and thinking they might
start breaking the door down, I said, 'Wait, I don't have a
key to that door. Let me call the night watchman in there to
open it. I dialed the phone and it rang about ten times before
John Lake answered it. "I told Lake that there were FBI agents
out here in the lobby threatening to break the door down if he
didn't open it. I turned to Mr. Linberg and asked to see the warrant
(Lake had asked me over the phone to do this). Linberg gave me the
warrant and I looked it over quickly. I said to Lake, 'Yes,
they do have a search warrant, so you might as well open the
door or they will break it open.”
The full story can be read here.
However, a not-quite so rosy view of John Lake is visible in the Stipulation of Evidence against those GO
defendants: indeed, it seems John was one of the guards of
Michael Meisner, the former GO operative who was held prisoner
by CoS when it was feared he would divulge their schemes:
"Page four of that exhibit included a weekend guard schedule
for "Herbert" (Mr. Meisner). It listed the following
individuals as guards: Jim Douglass, Chuck Reese, Peeter
Alvet, John Lake, George Pilat, and Gary Lawrence. Handwriting
expert James Miller concludes as follows: "positive" that the
first two pages were handwritten by the defendant Willardson;
"positive" that the notation on the third page from "Cindy" to
"Greg" was written by the defendant Raymond; and "positive"
that the handwritten notation on the last page addressed "Dear
Cindy" was written by the defendant Willardson. Government
Exhibit No. 167 was seized by Special Agent Hillman from Room
15 at the Cedars Complex. It was inventoried and initialed by Special
Agent Gonzales."
Christine has an OS page as well.
“I have been in Scientology since 1972. I have a degree in
Computer Science and work in the field of Systems
Administration for Windows NT in a computer software company
called Executive Software. I have been in the software
business for about 15 years, having worked at and been an
owner in Realworld Corporation for about 11 years prior to living in
Los Angeles. Prior to that I was on staff in the Church of Scientology
for 8 1/2 years.
I am happily married to John Lake and have been for 20 years, and we
have two wonderful children named Cara and Alex, and of
course, the obligatory dog, cat and fish. The kids are dynamic
and extroverted, and involved in life as a result of their own
abilities and our applying Scientology technology to them,
loving them and helping them grow up"
Executive
Software is, of course, the famous WISE business owned by Patron
Meritorious Craig Jensen, which makes the disk-defragmenter
software which caused a fracas in Germany when it was incorporated
into Windows 2000.
Chris Lake also "reviewed" http://www.admintech.com, and was quoted
in a press release:
"I was very impressed with this site," says Chris Lake,
another tester. "I am on the Web a lot, and this is the first
time I have seen a Web site take so much care to make it easy
for the visitor to understand what is being communicated,"
Lake continues, "And people will be surprised by its
refreshing content."
Lan, Jeanie . Clearwater, FL 34625
Pat Balvin & Jeanie Lan
Both Jean and Pat, who are married, are Scientologists, and Jeanie
appeared on the 1999 Investor List. According to records from
Scientology publications, Pat Balvin is a former staffer and
Patron of the IAS, while Jeanie, also a Patron, was in charge
of Criminon, one of the CoS ‘community groups’, and
ironically, one associated with fellow Slatkin investor, Scientologist
and convicted felon, Libby Weigand.
According to his OS page, Patric was in San Diego at the
time, involved in the wholesale/retail automobile business. He
now appears to be in Florida, however.
Jeanie lists 2357 Stag Run as her address in Criminon’s corporate filing:
She is a director, as is Libby.
The address resolves to Bernardo and Jeanie Lan.
In her OS page, Jeanie says, “My whole life is
Scientology.”
Landau, Yael &/or Michelle Landau &/or Asaf Landau .
North Hollywood,CA 91607
Yael, Michelle (Asaf Landau)
Asaf Landau is “a 25 year old Israeli male, living in San Francisco,
California. I'm interested in stimulating conversation,
whatever the topic may be... from stupid wit (oxymoron) to
deeper subjects...”
Michelle Yael would seem to be his partner, and she is involved with
Friends of Narconon. Presumably she, at least, is
Scientologist, and possibly Asaf as well.
Lang, Ben-Zion and Shoshana . Calabasas, CA 91302
Ben and Shoshana’s street address resolves to one Alan M Mintz, but
there is no further information about him available. According
to an extensive “Clear” List of Scientologists maintained by
an outside critic, there is a Shoshy Lang with Clear # 13168
who was being audited at CCLA in the 1980s.
Ben and Shoshana appear on the Clark
County, Nevada tax assessment list:
250 139-06-812-004 LANG BEN ZION & SHOSHANA 99 6,300 34,560

pbb@mail.usld.net mailto:pbb@mail.usld.net>
Perfectly Balanced Books also handled Slatkin investments for Sunnyside
Investments (profiled elsewhere on both this list and the 1999 Investor
List). According to Mr. LaRose, a former employee with Scientologist-owned
firm Wiseman and Burke (profiled elsewhere on this list), he was the
contact person for Slatkin at Sunnyside Investments before the account
moved to Perfectly Balanced Books. He does not have a personal claim
against Slatkin, as far as he knows.
Mr. LaRose is not a Scientologist.
Larsen, Karen . Santa Fe, NM 87505
Larson, Karen Chase . Sante Fe, NM 87501
That address resolves to Whitney Chase, Karen Chase and William Modahl,
according to Infospace.
This webpage suggests that Karen is employed at Ortiz
Middle School in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
Larson, Alan H & Janet W . Sheriden, OR 97378
Alan, Janet and Barbara Silver share the same address: the main office
of Delphi Academy,
a Scientology school owned and operated by the Larsons:
The Larsons have been profiled extensively on the 1999 Investor List;
Barbara, who is a registrar
at the school, is also a Scientologist.
(See also entry for Barbara Silver)
Lasker, Alex - Trustee . Marina del Ray, CA 90292
Apparently a screenwriter with no ties to Scientology, he co-wrote
“Beyond Rangoon,” which starred Patricia Arquette and
Spalding Gray, according to this Castle Rock promotional site
Leberger, Dani & Tami . Haifa 31250 Israel
Dani is cited in Source #78 as a Flag course completion in 1992.
Nothing for Tami Lemberger or Tamara Lemberger found.
There is also a "Dan Lemberger", a chiropractor who is quite the
proponent of traditional subluxation theory, or straight
chiropractic, at Sherman College of Straight Chiropractic. He
apparently graduated rather recently (in 1997) , but was
speaking at seminars on subluxations and arranging chiro.
events by 1999, as well as serving in a "Chiropractic mission"
to Brazil. For *this* Dan Lemberger, see:

Levi, Ilan & Barbara - Trustees Santa Barbara, CA
93109-1790
Levi, Ilan M & Barbara G Trustees . Santa Barbara, CA 93109
Several possible Ilans, including a French tech businessman , and a retired
Lucent/Bell Labs counselor .
Definitely a philanthropist, however; with his wife Barbara, he is a
donor to the Santa Barbara Parkinson's Foundation, and serves
on their board of directors.
Barbara Levi appears to be a prominent physicist. On the physics faculty at UC Santa Barbara, she
is an editor of Physics
Today. She is on a Leo Szilard lectureship committee, and was also
a contributor. She is on the Executive Committee of the American
Physical Society Forum on Education. She's also on the board
of Girls Incorporated (a sort of more modern Girl Scouts) in
Santa Barbara. She's studied and spoken on pretty much
everything from global warming to nuclear weapons, and has
written on national security topics. She graduated from Carleton
in 1965, and sent off this update to an alumni page :
"Barbara Levi, email: bgl@worldnet.att.net
mailto:bgl@worldnet.att.net> Most days I pull on my sweats
and go down to my home office, where I plunk out stories for
Physics Today. Nice life, but a bit solitary. So I welcomed
the chance to teach a course in introductory physics at UCSB last
winter quarter and this. As an antidote to my solitary
writing activities, the 300 biology majors who take that
course is overkill! But I am really happy to have the chance
to be in the classroom again. Can anyone recommend sources of
physics problems with biological and medical applications?
I'm still serving on the APS Forum on Education, which is headed by
fellow Carl, Paul Zitzewitz, who succeeded yet another fellow
Carl...and now a NJ Congressional representative, Rush Holt!
Best wishes to all from sunny California!"
She also presented a 'Forum On Physics & Society'

Levine, Richard & Barbara - Family 1995 Trust . Tarzana,
CA 91356
Levine, Laura . Tarzana, CA 91356
Richard Levine is a low profile Scientologist who seems to be curiously
absent from many of the usual places where wealthy Scientologists
appear, including the Super Power Building donation list and
the IAS Patron List. The Levine Family does appear in IAS-86
with a $20,000 donation, and according to CoS publications,
Richard has taken the L courses.
Richard is mentioned extensively throughout Reed’s deposition before
the SEC. According to his testimony, Richard Levine is an
“old friend”, and his co-partner in Tarzana Partners. He also
has trading authority and “watches over” many of Reed’s
trading accounts, and introduced Reed to another future
business partner, Statistical Sciences.

According to this article, Matt is a partner at celebrity business
management firm Goldman, Lichtenberg, Wasserman and Grossman:
"The music industry [hierarchy] is completely different from
[that of] film and television," explains Matt Lichtenberg, a
partner in Goldman, Lichtenberg, Wasserman and Grossman--the
Los Angeles-based business management firm that handles
Brandy's financial concerns. Lichtenberg says that a
singer-musician's first concern should be securing an experienced
manager although, typically, a model-actor will first find an
agent.
Matt Lichtenberg solicits support for the Norwood Kinds

Livingston, Anita & Marty . Sherman Oaks, CA 91423
Marty Livingston was on the 1993 WISE California list, but neither he
nor Anita appear elsewhere on the list, which could mean that they are
no longer Scientologists, or are members of the Sea Organization.

also in his OT levels. Siri seems to be on staff with the
Church of Scientology.
Tony Lonstein was an initial investor in Digital Lightwave, and the
“Lonstein Option” was mentioned in Brian Haney’s lawsuit
against Bryan Zwan:
72. On October 2, 1995, Plaintiff gave his consent to the Second Haney
Shares Option Amendment, after requesting that certain changes be made
to protect his interest~s. If Defendant Zwan had informed Plaintiff
that Digital had granted the March - July 1995 Digital IPO
Options, the Baum-Hedlund Option or the Lonstein IPO Option,
or that planning for the Digital IPO was well under way,
Plaintiff would not have agreed to the Second Haney Shares
Option Amendment because he would have realized his shares had
a substantially higher value than that represented by the Haney Shares
Option Exercise Price.
Tony and Joan are both on the 2001 Patron List, and Tony’s (former?)
company, AddTel Communications, was a member of WISE:

Lyons, Charlie . Lilleton, CO 80128
A major figure in the Colorado sports industry, Charlie Lyons spent
more than a decade as CEO of Ascent Entertainment, a sports
entertainment conglomerate whose assets included, among other
things, the Colorado Avalanche, Denver Nuggets and the Pepsi
Center - and, at one point, Beacon Communications LLC, the
film production company that eventually wound up in the hands
of Slatkin investors Armyam Bernstein, Richard Rosman and Kevin
O’Donnell.
In 1999, Lyons put together a tentative deal to sell the
two teams and their arena to Bill and Nancy Walton Laurie,
heiress to the Waltons.
DENVER (AP) -- Ascent Entertainment Group Inc. has agreed to
sell the Denver Nuggets, the Colorado Avalanche and the
teams' future home, the Pepsi Center, in a deal valued at
$400 million.
The sale will be to a partnership controlled by Bill Laurie and his
wife, Wal-Mart heiress Nancy Walton Laurie of Columbia, Mo.
Charlie Lyons, currently chief executive officer of Ascent
Entertainment, will become president of the partnership and
will own an interest in the partnership, the company said
Monday.
The halcyon days for Lyons ended shortly after this announcement,
however, after the deal became mired in no fewer than three
lawsuits, partly as a result of concerns amongst shareholders
that Lyons hadn’t followed an open bidding process in
brokering the deal. In this column, Denver Post writer Mark
Kizla calls for his resignation.
After the deal fell through, shareholder unhappiness forced Lyons to
resign from his post with Ascent, which resulted in a multimillion dollar severance package:
Lyons gets $3.6 million
Charlie Lyons, formerly the president, chairman and CEO of Denver-based

Donald Rackemann has been the Chairman of the Board and the
Chief Executive Officer since 1998. Prior to heading up Price
Net USA.com, Mr. Rackemann was semi-retired but very involved
in the manufacturing of golf equipment. From 1988 to 1994, he

Jerry Ballah was also involved with the lactic culture scam, and seems
to have been mentioned by the Van Harlingens (!) as part of a real
estate deal in Florida that somehow went awry. He also seems
to have been involved with Donald Rackemann and PriceNET USA,
but is no longer with the company.
During his days at World Technology Marketing, Jerry made headlines when the company was
accused of credit fraud:
“Eight to 10 USC students claim to have been defrauded by the
Irvine-based World Technology Marketing Inc., which is also
known as Worldtech, World Marketing Alliance and World
Marketing, officials from the Career Planning and Placement
Center said.
One student, the first to make a complaint, claimed to have been
charged $495 without her consent, though she did sign a blank
credit card statement …
The engineering student who found a charge on her credit card after the
interview tried to call the company and said she has received no reply.
"Ballah has also identified himself first as an independent
representative, later as the vice president of Worldtech and
finally as president of the company when contacted by DPS,"
Devega said.”
Here is the official warning against World
Technology Marketing Inc. from USC:
Despite a seemingly heaven-made match, PriceNET and Jerry Ballah have
since parted ways, with the company filing suit against Ballah for a
laundry list of alleged offences, as detailed in this filing:
Price Net USA, Inc. has filed a lawsuit in the superior court
of Orange County, California against the former
Director/President Jerry Ballah, Bruce Ballah, The Big
Store.com, The Big Hub.com, The Big Biz.com, OhGolly.com,
IPowerBiz, PriceNet Marketing, and MGI WorldNet.com (the Ballah group).
The lawsuit was filed during August 2000 in the amount of not less than
$25,000,000 for Breach of Fiduciary Duty, Fraud, Breach of Contract,
International Interference with Contractual Relationships,
Misappropriation of Trade Secrets, Unfair Competition,
Accounting, and Injunctive Release. The discovery process is
ongoing and the Company is vigorously pursuing the matter toward
a favorable outcome. The case is set for a settlement hearing in August
2001.
These days, Jerry is running his own e-commerce “network marketing”
venture, iPowerbiz.

Minshull Paul R & Ann H Plano, TX 75039
Paul appears to be with US
Tangible Investment Corporation, a coin appraisal company in Texas:
However, according to this press release, he is also the Chief
Operating Officer of Heritage Numismatic Auctions:
As with all Heritage online sales, bidders on the items on
eBay can view high-quality, full-color images of all auction
lots.
"This special event will be promoted during National Coin Week on the
eBay home page and coin category page, and on Heritage's home page.
Heritage will also encourage participation through our
unparalleled mailing and e-mailing lists," said Paul
Minshull, Heritage's Chief Operating Officer
Heritage Coin offers a full service internet bidding site. It
also boasts this authoritatively named subsidiary:
The Numismatic Certification Institute (NCI) is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Heritage Capital Corporation of Dallas, the
world's largest rare coin dealer. As of this writing, NCI is
not actively grading coins; however, many NCI-graded coins
remain on the market. NCI standards-by Heritage's own
admission-are from three-quarters of a point to a point-and-a-half
more liberal than the standards set forth by NGC and PCGS. Thus, a coin
graded Mint State-65 by NCI and priced at $50 might in actuality be the
equivalent of only a Mint State-64 coin from either NGC or PCGS.
Minshull, Ruth E . Northport, MI 90027
This is obviously the wrong postal code, since it resolves to Los
Angeles (coincidentally, the same zip code is used by
addresses within the Big Blue circle)
Ruth Minsbull is almost certainly Ruth Minshull, an oldtime
Scientologist who wrote several Scientology-related books
that were attacked by the church as being “off source.”
She was even mentioned by current RTC executive Guillaume Lesevre in
passing at the famous 1982 Missionholder Conference in San Francisco:
Now when you come back, I suggest definitely that you get rid of all
those Ruth Minshull and Peter Gillham and other publications
and you just get on LRH books. Just go down in your reception
in your bookstore and just get those other books out of
there.
Several of her books, in fact, were banned. It’s not clear whether she
stayed in the CoS after the controversy.
This speculation on Ruth’s fate came from a Freezoner:
Ruth Minshull was a Scientologist who wrote 2 excellent books
on practical use of Scientology principles. One was 'How to
Choose Your People', on the Tone Scale, the other, 'Miracles
for Breakfast', was on child-raising. I believe she also
wrote some shorter pamphlets.
The copyrights on both of these, as with all similar books, were held
by Hubbard, not the actual author. The books were suppressed during the
purge of the early 80's, and I'm reasonably certain that Minshull has
been declared.
Recently, Ruth submitted this whimsical article on little-used words to
the Christian Science Monitor:
She is also quoted as an ‘author and educator’ in this essay
on income taxes, “the vampire of civilization,” by Tom Hill, almost
certainly a Scientologist, possibly one practicing outside the church:
As stated earlier, (page 6) the basis of morale is production. Author
and educator, Ruth Minshull agrees, "How a person spends his time
strongly influences his emotional tone. If he is idle,
without goal or direction, he will go downscale."50Downscale
means to go down in emotional tone. What is the significance
of this statement, that production is the basis of morale, in
relation to income taxes? Is there really any connection?
Does the earlier section on the history of taxes have any meaning in
this discussion? I believe the answer to all of these
questions is yes.
Aha. The same postbox is used for something called SAA Publishing,
according to this site offering “work at home
opportunities”:
In 1980, SAA Publishing put out Minshull’s book on
destructive, selfish children, and is listed as being in Ann
Arbor, Michigan:
Ruth Minshull, How to Cure the Selfish Destructive Child. Ann
Arbor, Michigan: SAA Publishing, 1980. Pbk. pp.40.
Minshull, Lee S . Tarzana, CA 91356

Lee’s address is the same as listed earlier for Jason Levine:

So Jason Levine is using Lee Minshull’s address, and Lee Minshull is
using the Levine’s address.
You know, the strange thing is that I still don’t have a clue if these
people are Scientologists. I’m assuming they’re related to Ruth, but I
can’t tell if she’s still a Scientologist either. Their names don’t
turn up on any donor lists or course completions, but it
seems weird that they would hook up with Reed by accident.
Minkoff, David MD Pension Fd/Profit Sharing Plan . Clearwater,
FL 34615
Dr. David Minkoff was the Scientologist doctor on duty at the hospital
to which Lisa McPherson was brought, only to arrive DOA, by Church of
Scientology staffers who had been treating her for the last 22 days.
From SCIENTOLOGY HAD WOMAN IN ISOLATION St. Petersburg Times
FRIDAY
February 21, 1997 By: THOMAS C. TOBIN
“Church officials say no one realized it was an emergency. They say
McPherson distrusted doctors and was reluctant to get help.
They say they finally convinced her to see Dr. David I.
Minkoff, a Scientologist who is on staff at the New Port
Richey hospital.
Abelson confirmed that one of McPherson's two companions in the van was
Scientology medical liaison Janis Johnson, a medical doctor who is not
licensed in Florida.”
From the affidavit of a former Scientologist:
I went to the doctor, a scientologist who was not ashamed to demand me
to pay $150 for treatment. When you get $30.00 pay, this is no small
amount of money. (Dr Minkoff, at the Countryside clinic in
Clearwater).

appears that CR may have been investing on behalf of the
Neumann children (see Doug Neumann), as well as their own
children.
Neuman Doug Ashland, OR 97520
Neuman Doug Ashland, OR 97520
Doug Neuman is the Scientologist and Oregon real estate developer who
Reed claimed was a business partner in his appearance before the SEC.
He and his wife, Becky, are also WISE members, and Doug was one of the
original investors in Digital Lightwave.
Doug, Rebecca and their company, Mountain Park Development (in which
Reed was also a partner) were all involved in this lawsuit over real estate in Oregon:
In July 1994, plaintiff and defendant Mountain Park Development, LLC
(Mt. Park), entered into an agreement relating to the
construction of a subdivision. Under that agreement,
plaintiff was to be paid a fixed price for construction of
the subdivision improvements such as roads and utilities. The agreement
also provided that, if both parties agreed, plaintiff would also
construct some or all of the houses in the subdivision. The
contract terms specified the division of profits from the
sale of any houses plaintiff might build.
Plaintiff began construction under the contract in July 1994 and
continued to perform work thereunder until October 1996. In
October 1996, a dispute arose between plaintiff and Mt. Park
over payments allegedly owed to plaintiff for its labor and
supervision as general contractor for the subdivision
improvements. At about the same time, a dispute also arose relating to
payments Mt. Park allegedly owed plaintiff for several of the houses it
built. In December 1996, plaintiff filed several construction liens
against those properties.
Doug Neuman is also involved in this bizarre
libel suit:
An Ashland developer has filed a defamation lawsuit
against a man who wrote his unkind words via e-mail. Doug
Neuman claims Tom Sander made false and defamatory statements
about him and his family last year. His suit filed in Jackson
County asks for at least $450,000.
Sander's e-mails allegedly questioned Neuman's sexual orientation,
claimed he lived off his wife's inheritance and accused him
of "exhibiting ethnic intolerance toward Jews," according to
the suit.
Gilstrap described his client and Sander as old friends whose
relationship soured over a development deal in which Sander
lost money. Sander took Neuman to court, only to lose at
trial.
He is also involved in the hotel business, including the ill-fated Mark
Antony, a restoration project that also involved Reed
Slatkin.
He and Becky were honoured by the Ashland Historic Commission
for their work on the Ashland Springs hotel
Becky is the sister of Cooper and Bobby Rounds, both of whom also
invested with Slatkin.

William wrote this embarrassingly blatant testimonial for fellow
Scientologist and Slatkin investor Daniel Jacobs (see his
entry elsewhere):
Dear SalesDoctor,
I have recently been introduced to your electronic magazine (e-zine).
I must express the impact which has been created upon me by the
articles written by Mr. Daniel Jacobs Ph.D. I find his
writing method superb and the subject matter vital to what we
are faced with daily. Creating, forwarding and closing the
transaction!
Helpful, rather invaluable, information such as he has managed to
articulate in his three articles is a real pleasure to
discover. I'm confident I'm not the only one to notice or
mention this talent but want to make certain he receives
appropriate recognition.
Thank you for your magazine and supporting dissemination of such useful
data.
When can we expect more articles from Mr. Jacobs?
Best regards,
William J. Newman

Novitsky Norm La Canada, CA 91011
Novitsky, Norm . La Canada/Flintridge, CA 91011
An earlier version of this listing
reported a recollection by an ex-Scientologist who knew Mr. Novitsky
that during his time in the Sea
Org, Mr. Novitsky had been sent to the RPF (Rehabilitation Project
Force): Scientology's prison camp. Mr. Novitsky, through his
attorney, disputes this. Upon further reflection, our informant
decided that his recollection was faulty. Although he personally knew
over 100 fellow Sea Org members who did time on the RPF, often on
trumped-up charges, he now believes that his inclusion of Mr. Novitsky
on this list was erroneous. He regrets the error, as do we.
Norm is a Patron of the IAS and, with his wife Terri, a
Cornerstone Club Member of the Super Power Building. In past
years, he was also on staff at the American Saint Hill Organization
(ASHO), was a member of the Sea Org, and served as a cramming officer.
According to other sources, Norm is also partners with fellow
Club Reed member Ike Kezborn, and has several children in scientology.
He’s also listed in the California 1993 WISE Directory, and again in
the 1999 WISE Directory at the following address:

President Chuck Ohl, Paul Poulin co-partner of the New York
office, and Brad Ballentine and Tom Reitze of the home
office. Paul Mannix of the Sacramento office is ex-Guardian
Office staff and there are others. "
Chuck handled Monica Pignotti about Quentin
Hubbard's death:
"In June, 1977, I received a call from Chuck Ohl, who worked in the
Guardian's Office. He told me that Quentin had passed away
last October. According to the story Chuck told me, Quentin
had been found in a coma in his car near the airport in Las
Vegas. The cause of his death was listed as "unknown" and
Mary Sue had ordered a full investigation into his death. Chuck wanted
to know if Quentin had called or tried to contact me. I was stunned. I
had felt for a long time that something had happened, but hearing the
news really shocked me. I told Chuck that Quentin had written me just
before he left and that I would send him copies of the letters and do
everything I could to help with the investigation. I felt that his
mother had a right to know what happened to her son. I knew
that she really loved him. I made copies of the letters and
sent them to Chuck. "
Ohl's address googles to DMA on the WISE list.

That address resolves to Kelly Orr. Unfortunately, that doesn’t help

Barbara Orr attended this Rocky

Parselle, John . Annnandale Australia NSW 2038
John is involved with this company, Fingerscan Pty.
Helen is mentioned in this excerpt from Believe What You Like by C.H. Rolph:
“Later he said that in 1968 he had a letter from Mrs Helen Parselle,
wife of the scientologists' legal adviser, which seemed to
him to be 'offering a deal' after they had issued their libel
writ. He took it to mean that if he presented a petition to
Parliament on behalf of a scientologist they might drop the
libel action. 'It was quite an improper suggestion. It was
asking me to forget all the representations which had been made
to me, and I couldn't do that.'”
Charles Parselle was the Legal Advisor for Guardian’s Office World
Wide, and was also involved in Mission Corporate Cleanup, and
was at one time married to Helen; John could be their son.
According to a source who has asked not to be identified,
Charles is no longer involved with Scientology.
No Parselles have OS pages at present.
Payson, George S Clearwater, FL 34615
George S. Payson, his wife, Sheri and Chip, possibly a son or other
relative, are all Scientologists who were last believed to be
living in Clearwater, Florida. George had donated $20 K to the
International Association of Scientologists as of 1986, and
Chip is commended for his work in a memo to members of the
Clearwater Community Volunteers.
Sheri is the former Exec Director of the True School (see also Steven
Collbran, whose wife worked for the same school), and apparently left
her post to work for the CoS in Tampa, according to the SP Times' "Scientology's Children" :
"The school is not in any way connected to the Church of Scientology,
they do not fund us or have any management over us, Christine Collbran,
the school's vice president, said in a letter to the Times. But it does
have ties to Scientology. School officers are listed in a local
directory of Scientologists. The last executive director,
Sheri Payson, left the school to work for a Scientology church
in Tampa, according to a newsletter. Child auditing, a
Scientology counseling proces The True School is licensed by
Applied Scholastics, Collbran said in a letter. According to a
brochure, Applied Scholastics' trademark is owned by a group
called ABLE International. The brochure says: ABLE creates
recognizable changes in society."
George also ran this company until it dissolved in 1987:

only Reed Slatkin himself (as well as sister Barbara, also an
investor).
According to new information, we can confirm that Rita Rubin is, in
fact, Maxine (Slatkin) Pearlman's sister, and Reed's aunt,

who claims to have university credentials and to have religious
credentials and qualifications that he did not have), that
water is capable of carrying a signature of all elements. He
claims that the electrical signature or resonant field from
all matter can be duplicated in water or liquids.”

Rod Quinn ia a pioneer researcher in the relatively new science of
purified structured water. Rod became intrigued with the
physical properties of water and discovered a phenomena that
physicists are beginning to explain and quantify. Rod Quinn,
the premier scientist in this technology, has demonstrated
the ability to modify clusters in specific patterns which
give "simple" water extraordinary capabilities. Mr. Quinn discovered
that altering the physical structure of water enhanced access

Net USA.com, Mr. Rackemann was semi-retired but very involved
in the manufacturing of golf equipment. From 1988 to 1994, he
served as Chairman and CEO of National Telephone &
Communications, Inc. a long-distance telephone service provider, which
he co-founded and was responsible for its early growth and success.
Incomnet, Inc. acquired the company during 1994.
Don ran into trouble in his application to add a 1,000+ square foot
expansion, with pool and spa, to his home.
The proposal was eventually withdrawn in the face of opposition from
his neighbours.
Here is a sales pitch for PriceNET USA:
He also likes fast cars.

Rakow, Beth & Jay . Encino, CA 91356
Jay Rakow is a Hollywood player and entertainment lawyer who currently
serves as Executive Vice President and legal counsel of MGM. His wife,
Bess, was Lead Plaintiff in a lawsuit over artificially inflated

strongly favoured the plaintiffs. Here is a summary of the case, in text format.
Jay is the cousin of notorious Slatkin cohort, possible co-conspirator

Hmm. This is .. odd. The address given by David and Elizabeth resolves
to:
Weigand, Alex
1175 Jackson Rd
Weigand, Libby W
1175 Jackson Rd
Look, it’s Libby Weigand, Scientologist and former DIGL executive and
director of the local Criminon program.
In 1980, Libby was convicted
of extortion for attempting to blackmail her uncle, a US senator in
order to gain access to finances:
Elizabeth Eagleton Weigand today was given on indeterminate
sentence that could result in a maximum term of four and a
half years for an extortion attempt against her uncle,
Senator Thomas F. Eagleton. Federal District Judge H. Kenneth
Wangelin said that Mrs. Welgand's sentencing would be turned
over to the United States Parole Comission under the Young Adult
Offender Act. Mrs. Welgand is 24 years old. Her former attorney,
Stephen Poludniak, was sentenced to four years tn prison and
three years probation for conspiring to extort $220,000 from
the Eagleton family business, the Missouri Pipe Fittings
company, days before the August primary election. Mr.
Eagleton, Democrat, won nomination and was re-elected last month.
Mr. Poludniak testified that he and Mrs. Weigand had tried to blackmail
Mr. Eagleton with a fictitious document accusing him of being bisexual
in order to force him to buy back Mrs. Weigand's stock.
She went on to become a former executive with Digital Lightwave, along
with her “cousin in law” Doug Weigand, who died in a one-car traffic
accident outside the corporate offices in the late 1990s.
Libby also worked at DIGL, according to the following bio
from an SEC filing:
MS. WEIGAND has been Executive Vice President since September
1994. Prior to joining the Company, from August 1992 to
September 1994, Ms. Weigand served as administrator of a
private health care concern. From March 1991 to August 1992,
Ms. Weigand was Director of Sales at Kenfil Distribution,
Inc., a software distributor. At Kenfil, she managed a staff
of regional sales managers and account executives, restructured the
sales and operations divisions and helped negotiate national
contracts with companies such as Packard Bell, WordPerfect
Corporation, and Borland International.
Libby has an OS page and has since married David
Regan. She now styles herself “Libby Regan”.

from Clearwater:
A Times reader wrote on April 25 that he was cutting his
losses and moving to another city. Another wrote on April 26
that she was also leaving. Both of these neighbors felt that
the state of affairs in Clearwater was so awful that they
could no longer tolerate living here.
The public departure of my unhappy neighbors got me to thinking, and it
took about five seconds to discover my true response. Ta-ta.

Reinis, Robert . Los Angeles, CA 90049
Richard Reinis was a plaintiff in the somewhat mysterious lawsuit
against case against Evergreen Ventures Inc, which listed
Reed Slatkin and several other Slatkin investors as
co-plaintiffs.
There is a Richard Reinis who heads up the “Compliance Alliance”, a
labour-management partnership which requires periodic
monitoring of independent cutting and sewing manufacturers:
According to other articles, Richard Reinis, a lawyer with years of
experience in the textiles industry, participates in other fashion
and fabric-related legal issues:
Among those applauding the change in the retail industry's
attitude is Richard Reinis, founder of the Los Angeles-based
Compliance Alliance, a nonprofit group that monitors clothing
manufacturers' subcontractors. Reinis said the retail
industry initially refused to consider his proposals
requiring manufacturers to hire independent workplace monitors. But in
recent weeks, retailers and retail trade groups have asked him for help
in developing anti-sweatshop strategies. "The initial reaction of
retailers was fear--fear that publicity surrounding the issue
would adversely affect them," Reinis said. "The second
reaction was concern about possible legal liability.
Recently, there's been a noticeable change in the industry's
attitude--a change for the better. However, some retailers are
responding better than others."
A Richard Reinis is also responsible for bringing Krispy Kreme Donuts
to Southern California as the region’s first franchisee, according to
this story.
The address of the Krispy Kreme LLC in question, Great Circle
Family Foods, confirms that this is our Richard, and Reed
ripped off the man who brought Krispy Kreme Donuts to
Southern California. For shame.
Lois is Richard’s wife.

in Scientology.
Tom Reitze was the Information Officer at the Guardian’s Office during
the heyday of Snow White. As of 1999, he was the CEO of WISE company
David Morse & Associates in Glendale, CA.
Nancy Reitze, possibly Tom’s wife, was a spokesman for the church in
Clearwater in 1979, and is still active.
From ARS Week in Review (note Cambigue):
The Los Angeles Times reported on November 18th, 1999 that members of
Scientology contributed to a domestic violence center.
"The Women's Auxiliary of the Church of Scientology recently donated
boxes and bags of clothing and toys to the Glendale Domestic
Violence Center. The project was chaired by Margaret des
Marteaux, who hd members gather clothing and other items over
the last couple of months. Lissa Martinez, director of the
Domestic Violence Project, and Sylvia Hines, chief executive
officer of the YWCA in Glendale, accepted the donations. Along with des
Marteaux were Judy Cox, executive director of the Church of Scientology
Mission of the Foothills, Nancy Reitze, auxiliary chairwoman, and Lee
Cambique, auxiliary member."

Rhoads, Doris Hunt & Scott . Clearwater, FL 33755
Scott Rhoads is a Scientologist from Florida and describes himself
this way in his OS page:
I am a commercial Captain as well as an avid yacht racer and
cruiser. I have logged well over 100,000 miles at sea and I
have visited countries around the world. I have a healthy
collection of sea stories that range from full gales in a
sail boat off the coast of Mexico and amazing victories on
sailing yachts to calm and beautiful passages across oceans and bays.
Currently I am volunteering with a non-profit sailing school and
teaching maritime skills to children and adults. It’s been a
lot of fun. As part of this I have done minor to major yacht
repairs and have helped prepare a number of other people to
cruise to Mexico, the South Pacific and Caribbean.
He goes on to say that he has been a Scientologist for over
fifteen years, and that it has helped him become, among other
things, “more financially stable.”
He also wrote this letter on active
and passive sailing.

Marjorie and Stephen Richards live at this address.
Stephen Richards is the Cantor Emeritus at the Congregation B’nai

Before entering the School of Sacred Music, Stephen worked as
a composer-arranger in musical theater. After completing his
Cantorial Studies in 1969 he served congregations in
Rochester, NY, and Indianapolis before becoming the Editor of
Transcontinental Musical Publications and faculty member of
the School of Sacred Music of Hebrew Union College, from 1977-1980.
He then moved to Phoenix, and served there with Temple Beth Israel. He
has sung with and directed Pro Cantione of Phoenix and directed the
music for North Phoenix Corporate Ministry Programs. He has
conducted choruses at Butler University, the University of
Rochester and Oral Roberts University. He is currently the
conductor of the Bay Area Jewish Chorus in San Francisco.
Robinson, Donna & Robbie . Los Angeles, CA 90042
This is Donna and Robbie Robinson, longtime Scientologists.
Donna seems to have an interesting background in 1982, perhaps was with
the old ex-GO crowd?
From David
Mayo's affidavit:
"During early 1982, David Miscavige and Shelley Miscavige ran
an "Offload Project" during which a large number of SO
members, including several members of the CMO were "found
unfit" and thrown out of the SO. This project was directly
under Pat Broeker. The majority of those persons that Pat
Broeker and David Miscavige didn't like were gotten rid of, including
Anne Taskett, Donna Robinson, Melanie Murray, Dede Voegeding, Gale
Irwin, Lois Reisdorf (all CMO), plus other crew."
Since then, Sasha Zbitnoff, an ex-scn, said that "My
other communications with Scientologists (e.g. Donna
Robinson) didn't get me much for responses.
She's a Patron with Honors, and Robbie is a Patron, of the IAS.
Robbie has this to say on his OS page:
I became a very successful business man after I had been in Scientology
for some years and had trained on the applied philosophy that is
Scientology. As a result I sold my business very profitably
and established a private foundation which supports the
pursuit of religious and spiritual freedom. I have also been
able to return to my original purpose of being an artist and
have begun my first novel. Already I have great interest in the book
after only a few chapters. I have a wife and son who are both
Scientologists and we have a very full life with many friends
and activities that make every day a joy to live. And all
this as a result of my spiritual advancement in Scientology,
because I began my journey as a down and out broke hippie in
the sixties, more confused about things than the average citizen. It
shows what can be accomplished if you just make the effort to advance
yourself."

Rubin, Irving . Southfield, MI 48076
Rubin, Irving R Irrevocable Trust Southfield, MI 48076
Irving A. Rubin is a Michigan businessman who has been involved in a
number of attention-garnering deals in the past.
He was the president of CPI Plastics, a limited liability
corporation that received a warning from the Georgia
Environmental Protection Division over toxins released into
the groundwater, but that company has since gone dormant.
Rubin’s current company is the Rubin Investment Corporation.
During his divorce in the late 80s, Rubin made a unique argument for reducing the amount
of money to be granted to his soon-to-be-ex-wife:
Defendant next argues that his exposure to liability from
criminal charges in antitrust litigation pending against him
at the time of the divorce should have been deducted from the
marital estate. The court considered this potential antitrust
liability in valuing the involved asset, Container Products,
at zero. But it did not directly subtract this potential liability
from the marital estate. We find it appropriate to hold defendant
personally responsible for such criminal penalties rather
than subtracting them from the marital estate. Thus, we do
not find this dispositional ruling inequitable.
The criminal charges were in relation to certain unorthodox business
transactions related to Rubin’s steel drum business, as
explained in this Department
of Justice release:
Rubin was the principal owner, board chairman and CEO of Container
Products, Inc. ("CPI"), a Michigan corporation that operates
steel drum plants in Ohio and in Missouri, Louisiana and
Oklahoma; Bonczyk was CPI's executive vice-president and
treasurer. Steel drums are large containers (ranging in size
from about 13 gallons to about 57 gallons) used most frequently
to package chemical and petroleum products for storage or transport.
The superseding indictment returned on March 6, 1991, charged
Rubin, Bonczyk, CPI, two other corporations, and three other
individuals each with one count of criminal antitrust
conspiracy, in violation of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C.
§1, and two counts of mail fraud, in violation of 18 U.S.C.
§1341.2
CPI Inc. was eventually bought out by US Can in 1996, and in this SEC
filing, one of Rubin’s co-shareholders in the company is revealed
to be fellow Slatkin investor Ronald Schmier:
THIS STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of August 2, 1996 (the
"Agreement"), is entered into by and among United States Can
Company, a Delaware corporation ("U.S. Can"), CPI PLASTICS,
INC., a Delaware corporation ("CPI Plastics"), CP OHIO, INC.,
a Delaware corporation ("CP Ohio"), and CP ILLINOIS, INC., a
Delaware corporation ("CP Illinois" and, together with CP Ohio and CPI
Plastics, the "Acquired Companies"), and Irving A. Rubin, a resident of
Michigan ("Rubin"), Robert Bonczyk, a resident of Michigan ("Bonczyk"),
Sally Levy, a resident of Michigan, Ellen Schmier, a resident of
Michigan (both individually and in her capacity as Custodian
of Kate Schmier's shares of stock in the Acquired Companies),
Ronald Schmier, a resident of Michigan, Denise Levy, a
resident of Illinois, and Dana Ishbia, a resident of
Michigan, the stockholders of the Acquired Companies. These
stockholders are collectively referred to hereinafter as the
"Stockholders."
Rubin also appears to be a philanthropist, and donates money to several
local Jewish charities in the Michigan area.

Tarzana furniture restorer who said he had invested $400,000
with Slatkin beginning in 1997. Sadeh said he met Slatkin
through friends who had invested with the Santa Barbara
millionaire. Sadeh said Slatkin provided statements showing Sadeh's
money had grown to "more than $500,000."
Sadeh said he initially was relieved when Slatkin failed to follow
through on his letter by returning Sadeh's money. Now, Sadeh
said he wishes Slatkin had. Given Slatkin's bankruptcy filing
and the fraud accusations against him, Sadeh said he is
concerned he will never see any of his money.

of Geebro’s directors were trustees of the scheme and
declared an interest when the trustees discussed the proposed

Savoy Ltd Guernsey . Leetonia, OH 44431
This address resolves to Scientologists Gerhard and Peggy Haag! Yes,
the Robotic Parking king!
From WISE lists passim, including 2001:
Robotic Parking
Gerhard Haag
280 Walnut St.
Leetonia, OH 44431-1048
United States
(1) 330-427-6233
Here is the fabulous Robotic Parking website:
Notice that not only Gerhard, but the lovely Peggy Guignon, who was an
early investor in Digital Lightwave, is present on the board of
directors. She is, in fact, Gerhard’s wife, which might
explain why his former wife, Sabine, has been removed from
the Patron list. Peggy and Gerhard are both Patrons of the
IAS, and Key Contributors to the Super Power Building.
According to this post to alt.religion.scientology, which includes
several excerpts from newspaper stories, Gerhard Haag left
Germany partly due to accusations of unethical business practices.
His robotic parking business venture was profiled recently in the St. Petersburg
Times:
Robotic Parking’s automated garage concept promises to pack
in twice as many cars as a standard parking garage, plus cut
down on pollution, energy use, labor costs and frustration
for drivers trolling endlessly for an open space. But critics
argue the company has tried before but hasn’t been able to
reach its Jetsons-like goal. (…)
Haag, a German-born, 6-foot-4 tower of sinew and muscle, insists he's
about to turn part of the ramshackle factory where Checkers once built
its drive-through burger stands into a totally automated garage. And he
says he has raised about $7-million from investors, plus thousands more
in state and local tax incentives, to help him do it.
There's just one problem: Haag has made the same promise before. A
prototype he built in tiny Leetonia, Ohio, drew scores of
visitors but has since been called a sham by critics. A
324-car garage his company, Robotic Parking Inc., helped
build for congested Hoboken, N.J., is almost two years overdue
and mired in litigation. "We paid them $3-million, and we have a
building that's empty," said Donald Pellicano, chairman of
the Hoboken Parking Authority.

Credicorp Inc. seems to be a debt consolidation/loan company,

company operating out of Texas (which has been investigated
for fraud and is the subject of numerous scathing online
consumer reports).
Here is a Jeffrey B. Schwartz with a Chicago investment firm:
COMFORT ZONE. Putting every penny of your 401(k) money into
large-cap stocks tempts a lot of people. The company names
are reassuringly familiar, and the returns have been
excellent in recent years. ''Every adviser I talk to has
trouble getting people into things like small-cap and foreign,''
says Jeffrey B. Schwartz, senior consultant for Chicago-based Ibbotson
Associates, which provides investment software and consulting. No
wonder: For the 12 months ended Nov. 30, the total return on
the Standard & Poor's 500-stock index was 23.7%, vs.
16.8% for a Morgan Stanley Dean Witter index of
developed-economy stocks, -11.1% for an Ibbotson index of small
stocks, and a lousy -19.7% on an International Finance Corp.
emerging-markets composite index (table).

difficult to do but it was a goal of mine since I was a
child.
Due to the training I received applying L. Ron Hubbard's study
technology, I was confident I could attain this goal. I chose
the only 2 year American & California Bar Approved &
Accredited Law School in the United States. I attended South
Western University School of Law and graduated in 1986. I
successfully passed the California Bar in 1987 and have been a
participating attorney in Glendale, California since that

Stern, Michael S . Vineland, NJ 8362
Michael S. Stern could be the corporate counsel of Long Island-based
Dial Inc., as quoted in this Newsday article :
Michael S. Stern, Dial's corporate counsel, said: "The real
value of this company will be realized when it has expanded
more thoroughly. Then it would make sense to consider a
public offering." Dial might sell stock to the public within
five years, he said.
There is also a screenwriter of the same name who has worked on Angel
and the X-Files, among other shows.
He could possibly be the “friend” mentioned in this alumni
report:
Joseph R. Bezzone (BBA '87) has opened an Italian trattoria,
Due Amici ("two friends" in Italian) in West Orange, New
Jersey, with business partner and college friend Michael
Stern, who graduated GW in 1986.

possibilities for Michael S. Stern:

Perhaps further New Jersey investigations will shed some light on Mr.

Robert’s OS page says that he is a computer
professional, while Suzanna brought study tech to the public school
system:
“I have been a teacher my whole life. I graduated from UCLA as a
Graduate Fellow in Education and Administration, and my first
position within the LA Unified School District involved
teaching a bilingual class of children; half of the children
spoke only English, the other half only Spanish. My job was
to make all the children comfortable in both languages. No
mean task. How did I do this? I used materials provided by the school
district, but also applied to the teaching of these materials the L Ron
Hubbard method of study, including the "Three Barriers to Study". Using
Mr. Hubbard's study technology, my class became truly bilingual in half
the time normally allotted for this. I have used Mr. Hubbard's
educational technology to teach every subject to every child,
every teenager, every adult, and I can unequivocally say that
it works!”
Robert Sudalnik is apparently also on the Clearwater Beautification Committee:
“Commissioner Clark moved to appoint Robert Sudalnik. The motion was
duly seconded and carried unanimously.”
He also wrote one of the many Scn letters to the St.
Petersburg Times praising city manager Mike Roberto:

"In another sworn statement, John Taussig, a member of the
church's Gaurdian staff, reported that since May, 1974, he
has on numerous occasions noticed curious acoustic phenomena
while using the telephone lines of the legal office. He
states that the most f requent and noticeable noises have
been mysterious clicking sounds. He has also on several occasions
experienced interruptions which clearly did not originate in his
telephone or that of the party with whom he was conversing.
He avers that other staff memb ers have complained to him or
to other members of the legal department of similar
experiences."
He *could* be an executive with TRW now and living in
Irvine, CA, but that could be someone else.

Judy is also ex-GO and signed an incriminating document in the

"In the so-called Zeus code Mr. Hubbard is Joko, his wife,

Lily. A document with FBI number 7822, dated Nov. 5, 1976,
and signed by Judy Taussig, a U.S. national official of
Scientology, defined the correct use of the codes. They were
to be used, the court learned, for "groups or actions that we
don't want connected to LRH or MSH. This is handled by coding their
names. Also coding the group or action if it falls into
categories #1 - #8 listed here."
That list included incriminating activities, "unpublished crimes," and
"things like lobbying where this is prohibited in non-profit
corporations, or money deals that might provoke government
tax offices."

"We hung out for a while with some newfound friends, many of whom were
in clear violation of the 'under 35' theme, including Janet Weiland,
vice president of the Church of Scientology, and Lon Tinney,

Turner Alvet, Peter & Nancy . Los Angeles, CA 90065
A former Guardian’s Office staffer in the Information Bureau, longtime
Scientologist Peeter Alvet was one of Michael Meisner’s guards during
the time he spent under confinement by wary GO agents who suspected he
was planning to turn state’s evidence. (He eventually escaped, and did
so.)
From the Stipulation of Evidence in the Snow White
case:
“On May 1, at approximately 6 p.m., Brian Andrus, Peeter
Alvet, Information Bureau official Chuck Reese and two
bodyguards visited Mr. Meisner and told him that he was to be
moved to another apartment. Mr. Meisner refused to leave,
threatening to cause a commotion if forced to do so. The two
guards handcuffed him behind his back, gagged him and dragged him out
of the building. Outside, they forced him onto the back floor of a
waiting car. In the car one of the guards held Mr. Meisner
down with his feet.”
Today, Peter and Nancy are both artists, and own the Alvet-Turner Fine
Art Studios in Southern California. The Turner-Alvet Studios are listed

Ulan, Fred . Glens Falls, NY 12801
Fred Ulan is a Scientologist chiropractor.
He is involved with the "Natural Health Improvement Center," and
practices the highly controversial and medically unproven Contact Reflex Analysis.
In addition, he claims to be a founder of CCHR, the Scientology front
group opposing psychiatry:
"One of Dr. Ulan's proudest achievements has come out of more
than 25 years which he devoted to study and work in the field
of drug-free approaches to physical & psychosomatic
illness. He became sickened by the atrocities he discovered
as "routine treatments" in the mental health field, including
physically damaging electric shocks, extremely addictive and
harmful psychiatric/pharmaceutical drugs, frequent sexual violations
of children and adult patients alike, as well as extensive insurance
fraud. In 1986, aided by Rev. Heber Jentszch, President of
the Church of Scientology International, he spearheaded the
establishment of an international network of volunteer
organizations to help clean up field of mental healing. This
formidable psychiatric watch-dog group, CCHR, (Citizens Commission on
Human Rights), now has over 300 chapters world-wide. CCHR has brought
about major reforms in the field of mental health field through
numerous criminal investigations and public campaigns which
has resulted in many favorable changes in the mental health
laws in many countries and states, thus helping to usher in
an era of greater safety in this field. Dr. Ulan can be
reached at the Natural Health Improvement Center, LLC, 15 West
Notre Dame Street, Glens Falls, New York, 12801. Phone: (518) 792-5772;
Fax: (518) 792-7310. E-mail: nhic@capital.net."
He highly recommends various vitamins for their curative properties,
and contributed cases to a booklet: "Patients Speak About
Nutritional Therapy."
He has an OS page.
In 1976, he was a GO officer involved in handling CoS' entree into Clearwater:
"A press release quoting church spokesman Fred Ulan says
the Scientologists will give Clearwater city commissioners "a
written guarantee" that the church will not hold the
officials legally responsible "for any libel or slander
uttered by Bob Snyder in his forthcoming lecture entitled 'The
True Story of the Fort Harrison'."
Not only was Ulan involved in the takeover of Clearwater, according to
the affidavit of his ex-wife, Ginger Ross Breggin, now married to
prominent anti-psychiatry (yet apparently non-Scientologist)
writer Peter
Breggin, he was involved with the GO defense:
"At the time I was married to Freddie Ulan (1976-1983). He was head of
the Safe Environment Fund and was fundraising for the defense of Mary
Sue and other indicted Scientologists. After leaving staff I made a
genuine year-long attempt to salvage the marriage but it was
beyond saving and we separated in 1982 at which point I also
left Scientology."
Breggin concludes her affidavit, which was
highly critical of Scientology (she has also endorsed Steve
Hassan's book concerning cult recovery issues), by stating:
"Immediately after our daughter was born, I decided not to return to
staff. My husband, Fred Ulan, left when she was less than two
weeks old and went to Flag for more upper level auditing
(maybe the Ls). I was a new mother, cut off from all my
friends and any support network. My infant began crying one
night and did not stop. She cried for over three hours. After trying
everything I was horrified to discover that I was thinking about
dropping her off my second story balcony. I quickly and
gently laid her in her crib, and called my sister-in-law who
came over and helped me for a couple of hours. I felt like I
was going crazy and became convinced that I needed some
auditing to address the horrendous impulse I had had and went to
the service bureau at USGO. I was placed in lower conditions due to
having declared I was not returning to staff, and had to work
through conditions and return to staff prior to receiving any
auditing. During this time my husband, away at Flag, was
refusing to speak to me and providing no emotional support,
because of my lower condition and the fact that it could risk
his auditing."
Ulan introduced Arte Maren,
GO felon, to the crowd in CW:
"But five days later, the public was invited to an open house
at the Fort Harrison. About 500 people showed up and they
found the old hotel looking better, cleaner. Rev. Fred Ulan,
flashing a big smile, greeted everyone and spoke of a week of
"ups and downs." He introduced Maren and, pointing at his
head, said: "See, no horns."
From another article:
"In June, Fred Ulan, an assistant public relations official
for the church, reported to public relations director Artie
Maren that not enough was being done to silence Snyder. To
make up for this shortcoming, he said, FREEDOM, a Scientology
publication, was preparing an article "tying Snyder in with
Interpol as he has stated he supports them, and using the
one-world rule button which Snyder hits us with saying Snyder now
supports Interpol which supports one world rule by its very
nature."
Not surprisingly, Ulan's clinic is a WISE business.

We Scientologists believe in an infinite God, the sanctity of life, a
monogamous family, no drugs, hard work, unimpeachable fair play, and
delivering what you promise (or more) in business. You have
all noticed how drugs, dishonesty, criminality and illiteracy
are strangling once-vital nations. Scientology reaches out
with highly effective anti-drug efforts on six continents,
criminal rehabilitation groups in prisons, inner-city literacy
projects, and volunteer ministers when disasters strike. Earth's
religions must form inter-religious alliances against the
forces of chaos. United we stand... Jon von Gunten

Son of Douglas Wicks Walker and childhood friend and erstwhile business
partner of Sky Dayton.
From an article on Sky Dayton and Earthlink:
A practicing Scientologist, Dayton graduated at age 16 from
the Delphian Academy, a Scientology-affiliated boarding
school in Sheridan, Ore. But ambition moved him to choose
entrepreneurship over college. His first venture was a
money-losing coffeehouse named Cafe Mocha, located on trendy
Melrose Avenue in L.A. Dayton's next business was a graphic design
shop, started with long-time friend Adam Walker.
The article continues:
To fund the venture, Dayton talked to anyone who would listen,
eventually hooking up with two Scientologists who would
become his first angel investors. He raised $100,000 by
selling a 40 percent stake to Kevin O'Donnell - the father of
a school friend and founder of Government Technology Services
Inc., a Chantilly, Va., computer reseller - and Reed Slatkin, a Santa
Barbara, Calif., stock trader, financial manager and long-time
friend of Walker's family.

Many of the Waltons were early investors in Earthlink, which may
explain why they invested with Mr. Slatkin in the first
place. The Waltons are one of Pennsylvania’s oldest,
wealthiest and most respected families, and the lineage
includes marriages with the Carnegie and Mellon families,
amongst others. Rachel Mellon Walton, in particular, is a renowned
philanthropist, and the family supports many charitable
initiatives and projects.

Sterling:
"Investigate a Management Group
Dear Editor:
Barbara J. Kowlowitz, DC, has courteously sent me a copy of her August
7, 1990 letter to you. If you decide to print this letter, would you
add the following postscripts? I would appreciate it very
much.
Postscript: It sometimes happens that Sterling's clients do come up
with successful marketing ideas. Of course, our consultants
encourage such activities. About the $500 given by Dr.
Kowlowitz's partner to the Church of Scientology, that's a
personal matter between him and the church. Although Sterling
may have recommended personal counseling, it would not have been
involved in the actual transaction.

Zaplin, Mark Santa Fe, NM 87501
Zaplin, Mark Wm Synnamon - Century Bank Santa Fe, NM 87504
This is Mark *Zaplin*, erstwhile art partner of the infamous Ron Rakow!
Zaplin runs the Zaplin Lampert Gallery, which "exhibits
Classic Western art, including nineteenth- and early
twentieth-century American paintings, drawings and prints by
Santa Fe artsits and Taos artists, and works by the Early Modernists.
The Gallery features a fine collection of traditional Mexican
furniture, New Mexican furniture, and other New Mexican art.
There are also works of historic photography and contemporary
American art from a select group of artists on display."
The website tells the gallery's story:
"Partners Mark Zaplin and Richard Lampert grew up together
in Massachusetts. In 1972, in the basement of a Boston
bookstore, they discovered a large trove of Edward S. Curtis
photographs and plates of the American Indian, a project to
which the photographer devoted 30 years of his life. The find
led Mark and Richard to the West, and to their careers as dealers
in fine art."
Zaplin was involved in a co-ownership deal with Rakow and Denise Del
Bianco of a Georgia O'Keefe painting which led to a lawsuit
by him against Rakow and DelBianco. Both Rakow and Del Bianco
are Slatkin investors, along with numerous other members of
the Rakow family. Rakow's prior fraud convictions have raised
questions about his involvement with the Reed Slatkin investment
enterprise.
As it turns out, Zaplin’s relationship with Rakow may have started
before their cooperative art ventures: according to the New Mexico corporate database, Zaplin
was involved in the creation of “Standard Activator
Corporation,” which, according to the record, was “TO BUY
SELL, AND TRADE LACTIC BACILLIS CULTURES.”
