What is Rotary?


Rotary is a worldwide organization of business and professional leaders that provides humanitarian service, encourages high ethical standards in all vocations, and helps build goodwill and peace in the world. Approximately 1.2 million Rotarians belong to more than 32,000 clubs in more than 200 countries and geographical areas.

Who joins Rotary?

Rotarians are business and professional leaders who take an active role in their communities while greatly enriching their personal and professional lives. A Rotary club contains a diverse group of professional leaders from the community that the club serves.


What are some the values of Rotary and Rotarians?


Rotarians worldwide are inspired by the Rotary theme of “Service Above Self” and are guided by reference to ‘The Four-Way Test’. In particular, ‘The Four-Way Test’ challenges Rotarians, in everything they do, to ask of themselves:

“Of the things we think say or do:

  1. Is it the TRUTH?
  2. Is it FAIR to all concerned?
  3. Will it build GOODWILL and BETTER FRIENDSHIPS?
  4. Will it be BENEFICIAL to all concerned?"

What are some of the benefits of joining Rotary?

Membership in a Rotary club offers a number of benefits, including:

  • Effecting change within the community.
  • Developing leadership skills.
  • Gaining an understanding of — and having an impact on — international humanitarian issues.
  • Developing relationships with community and business leaders.
Through Rotary's service programs, a Rotary club can have a significant effect on the quality of life in its community. Programs of The Rotary Foundation offer opportunities to form international partnerships that help people in need worldwide.


I mainly owe this great honor to Doctor Andrea Salvi of Italy for his nominating me in this process, and to those club members that supported his nomination request.  My sincere grazie!

Changing the Behavior Matrix

Sigmund Freud theorized that all decision making is based on our desire to seek out pleasure, and avoid pain. As long as someone has a past experience with a hierarchical level above four on a scale of between one and ten, with ten being the most intense, then it will have an influence over the individual’s decisions. This creates a very limited lifestyle; avoidance of any sensory, emotional, or intensity similar to situations and/or circumstances that one is wishing to avoid any recall of, thus causing symptoms of depression, anxiety and/or suicidal ideation. With Nu-Rekall™ Zero Suicide Systems we take a segment of a person’s past and alter its hierarchy (intensity). It is only required to alter the hierarchy by two degrees at first, and then a natural degradation continues the process ending the segment of targeted memory in zero. The whole process takes a week, but as soon as the process is initiated the survival instinct is deactivated. Training c...

Why do people commit suicide?

Sara Leatherman in Iraq in 2006. A back injury forced her to leave the military in 2009. She also suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder. Leatherman was 24 when she hanged herself in her grandmother’s shower in 2010. Why do People Commit Suicide? In the field of psychology there is currently a massive gap between what is being taught, applied and propagated, and the new solutions available for mental disorders.   In order to see the answers you seek, you must first ask the right questions! Why is not as important as HOW! Built into the making of each and every human on the planet is an innate characteristic called the survival instinct, which has only one purpose, protect life! Or, keep you safe at all costs. The survival instinct has three hierarchical threat levels it has been programmed to be aware of; 1) the Soul, 2) the Body, and 3) the Mind. With the highest level of threat being, when the SOUL is in danger. There is only one way anyone ca...

How memories are made...?

MEMORY MAPPING, COMPONENTS, AND REMOVAL If we were to look at the mind and expose the energy signatures of stored memories it would look something like stars in the sky at midnight. Some memories are dim and barely visible while others shin bright and bold.   Our focus naturally is drawn to the brightest, and they demand our full attention. What makes some memories brighter, more intense than others? Memories with higher levels of power consumption are based on the emotional intensity at the time of an experience! The greater the emotional level at the time of an experience the better our recall will be of the details of that experience. Sensory perception levels become acute recording even the smallest of details. Memory Memories are formed as a result of sensory perception and emotional attachments. (See figure C) The ability to recall a specific memory is determined by the intensity of the emotion attached to it. When a negative emotion is strong enou...
