Her grandmother taught her all these songs as she grew up in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. She studied acting and directing at New York University's Tisch School for the Arts. Her first role was as a 12-year-old boy talking about in Tompkins Square Park with an amnesiac in Hal Hartley's movie, Amateur (1994). With a few more film roles under her belt, Tennor moved to Los Angeles to work in television.

Reigning from the small town of Tyner, NC, John McCraig Overton, Delmonte Jordan, and Antonio Copeland not only share a love for music, but they also share a bond that links them more than music ever could. Although John and Delmonte were born on the same day and one hour apart, John is Delmonte's uncle. Virtually raised as brothers, they would later meet Antonio at a restaurant where they all worked. They went from flipping burgers to flipping beats and rhymes and that would eventually become life for these three gentlemen. Speaking of life, these young men faced the typical trials and tribulations that most youth do growing up in North Carolina but their passion for sports, video games, and girls kept them on the right path. They understood at a young age that getting money was their main objective and they wanted to get it through something the invoked passion in the people around them and not fear. Since that point, Da Gwop Krew has been on a relentless mission to get that gwop.

Michael Hurst is a dating coach, author and speaker based in Washington, DC. His book Become That Guy: Become Irresistibly Attractive is a comprehensive resource for dating and self-development. Starting in high school Michael made a conscious effort to figure out what it took to become better when it comes to meeting women. While in college 11 years ago he discovered the early stages of what is now known as the Pickup Artist (PUA) movement which helped him develop more power and choice in his dating life with women.
His new book “Become That Guy” is a comprehensive resource toward dating and self-development based on over 11 years of experience in the Pickup Artist/men’s self development community. Michael rediscovered the Men’s Pickup Artist Movement in summer 2007 when a woman he went home with had a copy of the book “The Game” on her bedside table.
The phrase “Become That Guy” refers to becoming the kind of guy who is naturally attractive to women. Learning to become more attractive to women is about more than just knowing what to do or say in a given situation. If a man creates a strong set of beliefs about himself s and about women that make him attractive, the skills and behaviors will tend to follow naturally from that. Instead of being a guy who says things, you become that guy who is attractive.

V. Frank Asaro, JD is a lawyer, musician/ composer, inventor and theorist who authored the non-fiction book, Universal Co-opetition, published (Oct.2011), The Tortoise Shell Code, novel (2012) and now, A Primal Wisdom (April, 2014), the non-fiction corollary to his novel and a 2d, expanded edition to Universal Co-opetition. He began developing the theory of co-opetition not long after he was selected out of law school as lawyer-clerk to the California Courts of Appeal.
He went on to receive the highest-category law career peer review, Preeminent, Martindale Hubbell rating, and appeared in Who’s Who in American Law, and Who’s Who in the World. Engaged in litigation most of his career, he honed skills proving or disproving facts and stories – a handy talent for a novelist and a theorist. Moreover, as a patent holder, he shows a creative knack. This he calls upon in weaving the most exciting tale of The Tortoise Shell Code, a fiction work in Admiralty – one of his fields, and in nailing the theories of this non-fiction corollary, A Primal Wisdom. In those early days when he was an Appellate court law clerk, his creativity became a major component in developing the theory of the products liability holding of Greenman v Yuba Power Products - further expanded by the California Supreme court. A major part of the Greenman opinion is now the law in the English speaking and European Union countries of the world. To offer additional examples of co-opetition, or to contact in general: vfasaro@san.rr.com.

Hogan Hilling is back again discussing about his new release, "Dads Behaving Dadly: 67 Truths, Tears and Triumph of Modern Fatherhood."
More and more fathers are asserting themselves and actively taking part in changing diapers, attending doctor’s appointments, participating in PTA meetings and helping with homework.
In short, fatherhood is alive and well!
We have seen the dramatic shift into to modern fatherhood. In fact, we have lived it.
Hogan became a stay-at-home dad in 1992 and quickly became an advocate for involved fatherhood. He wrote articles, led workshops for fathers at local hospitals, spoke to corporations about the advantages of being an involved father and published many self-help parenting books.
Al became a stay-at-home dad in 2002 and soon after joined the National At-Home Dad Network, eventually rising to be its President in 2011. He wrote many blog posts about life as a stay-at-home dad and revealed to parents and brands on social media the truths about the capabilities and desires of fathers in the 21st century.
The image of fatherhood, however, has not changed much despite the reality we have lived and witnessed in the thousands of fathers we have met. We decided to change that and in 2012 launched a book project we titled “Dads Behaving DADLY.”
The mission of the book project was to reveal the truths, tears and triumphs of modern fatherhood we had heard for years to a public that had yet to completely change its opinion of dads as bumbling, incompetent parents.

He has recently written two amazing books, Fearless Puppy on American Road and Reincarnation Through Common Sense. True to Ten’s form, ALL author profits from these books will be donated to sponsor Wisdom Professionals (beginning with but not exclusive to Tibetan Nuns and Monks).

Telling the riveting true story of what happened when Kevin Scott Hall took in a refugee of Hurricane Katrina, Hall’s second book, ‘A Quarter Inch from My Heart’ is a story of love found in the unlikeliest of Determined to help Maurice “get back on his feet”, Hall was still thrown for a loop by what transpired. Over two-and-a-half years, the two men lived as roommates and friends, forcing Hall to examine his own feelings about race, class and love. When Maurice was diagnosed with a rare lung cancer and AIDS, Hall stayed with him until the bittersweet end, looking after his friend and watching his spiritual and emotional growth.
“When Maurice died, I realized what I’d lost and I began to revisit many experiences that I hadn’t thought of in years,” says the author. “I was the victim of a random street stabbing in 1994, and the event reverberated through my life. In writing the memoir, I detailed my struggles as an artist, family tensions and other events from my past in an attempt to understand how I had come to this moment – letting a mysterious stranger into my life and growing closer to him than I’d ever been to anyone.”
“A Quarter Inch From My Heart is a harrowing account of love and loss. Kevin Scott Hall writes about being young in New York City and reckoning with how we all must grow up by taking care of each other and ourselves. His memoir is not only about one life or even the defining, complicated friendship at its center, but about the universal project of being decent, thoughtful citizens of the world. It is at once deeply introspective and outward reaching.”

Ripstein, who lives in Florida, is recognized worldwide for her art, and the unique, patented and unprecedented, Invisible Art techniques that she created. She is also recognized globally for her work with the United Nations as a peace envoy. Born in Mexico, self-taught but already on her way as an acclaimed artist at the age of 12, she has long earned the praise of international art collectors and critics. However, much like her artwork, the origins of The Art of HealingArt is itself steeped in mystery. For three years, from 2005 to 2008, Ripstein was unable to speak. Doctors could only surmise that she had suffered a stroke or brain injury, but they ultimately diagnosed a brain tumor. Suffering from a complete lack of vital energy, she couldn't live a normal life. Unable to communicate, Jacqueline drew inward and began to receive the "lessons" offered in the book. Eventually one doctor finally did discover the cause of her disability--the complete collapse of her immune system. It took one more year of intense treatments to restore her health. But tests showed that Jacqueline's pineal gland behind her forehead had grown to large unusual dimensions--the part of the body associated with The Third Eye...the chakra that connects us to the non-visible world.

The ensenble began life as a group of friends getting together to do comedy theatre in 2000. The founder of the company worked with several other actors at Elaine’s Famous Dinner Theatre in Cape May, New Jersey. Then, the company was little more than an acting club where the members practiced and developed new material. This began to change when the group started to get outside work doing comedy shows around the Philadelphia area. Seeing this as a viable way to make a living, The Founder (who was obviously clinically insane), began to organize the group into a working company. Equipment, costumes and a truck were stolen (just kidding!), or politely acquired, from anyone who would contribute and the Riddlesbrood theatre company was born.
In October 2000, The Riddlesbrood players set up shop in Collingswood, NJ, and mounted the first production of "Scrooge: a Comedy!"Within a year, the small but enthusiastic touring company, Riddlesbrood, got their big break performing dinner theatre shows for the Showbarn in Smithville, NJ, and shortly thereafter, the theatre company became incorporated in July 2001. The company went into permanent residence at the "new" Showbarn Dinner Theatre in September 2001 and began to write, cast, and produce all of the entertainment performed there.
As luck would have it, Riddlesbrood found a new home in Historic Burlington City, NJ, in April 2006, and both set up residence there. Currently, the company is continuing its rise to prominence as a professionaltraveling theater group in the New Jersey and Philly area. We continuously dedicate our efforts to making all kinds of audiences laugh out loud!

From We Can Be Kind to Listen To My Heart, Help Is On The Way, We Live on Borrowed Time, Trust The Wind, I'll Be Here With Youand hundreds more, David Friedman has written songs of inspiration, love and hope that take on new emotional meaning in these challenging times. With 5 Broadway shows, his own Off Broadway Show , 8 Disney Films, 3 television series and recordings by such artists as Diana Ross, Barry Manilow and Nancy LaMott to his credit, David has, in recent years, come to realize that his true mission in life is to help heal and enlighten people in whatever ways he can. With this in mind, David recently wrote a book entitled The Thought Exchange - A Practical Method of Moving Beyond "Positive Thinking" and spends a great deal of time travelling around the country lecturing, giving concerts and teaching Thought Exchange principles in workshops and private sessions.
There is a secret beyond The Secret, a simple missing piece that when applied, allows us to successfully use ANY of the other methods of self-help and self-exploration, and experience the life we truly desire.
With the proliferation of books like "The Secret," we now know that what we think appears in the world as what we see there. So how come we're having such a hard time holding the thoughts we want to hold? How come we take on a positive thought only to find, moments or days later, that we're back to the same old thought and seeing the same old results we've always seen. In this groundbreaking book, David Friedman gives us the missing piece, the real secret to identifying the underlying thoughts we're actually thinking, exchanging them, and being able to stay with them and see the results we've always wanted to see but never knew how to achieve.

Charles Locy, also known as Chuck, has been researching the material for his books for years. As Chuck says, "…the book represents Forty Years of wondering in the wilderness."
Chuck currently lives in Cincinnati, and is quick to point out that there are two towns that claim to be his childhood home: Mentor and North Kingsville, both in Ohio. Mentor claims he is from North Kingsville, and North Kingsville claims he is from Mentor.
This humble humor reflects much of his writings. While the message is important, the delivery is unassuming. As cartoonist for New Yorker Magazine, Michael Shaw points out, "...it forces me to pay attention. Before you know it, zing! There is a truth wrapped in the merriment of the banter."

Obamacare: Dead on Arrival, A Prescription for Disasters
This book discusses the detriments of a government controlled medical system from the health care professional’s perspective. Specifically it notes how the rationing of services will affect everyone in some manner or form. Under Obamacare services and access are limiting factors contrary to the government’s assertion that they are not. The chapters display, through many real life examples, how limiting services can bring great harm and even death to those who require health care the most. Special attention to the legal, moral, ethical and economic implications of Obamacare are discussed throughout this book. The author’s inclination is Obamacare should be abandoned and the Supreme Court was absolutely wrong in their assessment.
