Most women wouldn’t marry their husbands if they had it to do all over again. Renowned gender expert Susan Shapiro Barash’s research shows that the percentage of women who feel this way has increased to 65 percent over the 36 percent recorded six years earlier in a Woman’s Day and AOL Living poll. In her 13th book, THE NINE PHASES OF MARRIAGE: HOW TO MAKE IT, BREAK IT, KEEP IT (St. Martin’s Griffin – Sept. 18, 2012), Barash is brutally honest in divulging the ups and downs most wives will face through different stages and trials of marriage, from the honeymoon, to raising children to redefining relationships once the kids are out of the house.

We have mastered traveling through space, but time eludes us. Not a person exists who doesn’t wish to go back in time to the past or shoot forward into the future to see what may unfold. Time eludes us, for we are trapped by the arrow of past, present and future in an order that appears fixed and unchangeable. Yet...is it really fixed and unchangeable, or is it just a matter of how our brains have been trained to perceive time?

This book looks first at the enigma of time itself...how little we truly know about linear time and how it has actually changed over the course of scientific knowledge and evolution. Time is not what we originally thought it would be, and as new

discoveries point to a much less fixed concept of time, we very well may one day be able to control the clock the way we control our spatial location. We may, in fact, be able to travel through time.

From the earliest ideas and imaginings of science fiction authors and visionaries to the most cutting edge research into the behavior of particles and the cosmic constants that constrain time travel, we explore how close we have come from Einstein’s time dilation and relativity theories to a world of potential wormholes, parallel universes, additional spatial and temporal dimensions, the Multiverse and even bizarre particles that seem to exceed the speed of light, and open new doors to one day walking the landscape of time as we once walked upon the moon.

Can fingerprints predict hand coordination in sports, will the two handed basketball free throw go off the rim or swish through the net, whether a golf drive will go straight, hook or slice? Can competitiveness, multitasking abilities, perhaps even degrees of honesty be predicted at birth? This book is certain to raise controversy throughout professional and academic circles as it challenges current psychological theories, and requires new approaches to child rearing, education aptitude and human resource assessments and psychological evaluations.

It’s one of the least known scourges of our times – early and forced marriage. Child marriage for short.

The average American does not know that in the developing world, 1 in 7 girls are forced to marry before their 15th birthday. That’s 10 million per year, with some girl brides as young as eight or nine. Worse? The husbands are often much older --30, 40 and even 50 years old.

In 2011, world leaders like Nelson Mandela, Jimmy Carter, and Desmond Tutu said “Enough!” They formed a global partnership called Girls Not Brides. It’s grown like wildfire to include over 180 organizations working to end child marriage** all over the world.

Now, in conjunction with the first ever International Day of the Girl Child on October 11th, the U.S. members of Girls Not Brides are spearheading an effort to raise awareness and about child marriage and pressure the U.S. administration to increase political and financial investments to end this awful tradition.

Jennifer Redner is a US Policy Consultant at Good Works Group Inc. and Co Chair of Girls Not Brides USA. Jennifer joins host Catherine Bradford to talk about International Day of the Girl Child and the compelling and often shocking issue of child marriage.

Please join me for this important conversation!!! Together we can change what has never been acceptable!

Catherine Bradford is pleased to welcome back Stuart Wilde, Metaphysical Visionary and Author of 20 books (translated into 50 languages worldwide) on Spirituality and Personal Development. ...."Through tenderness we move from the insistence of the intellectual mind to the warmth of the heart, and there in that warmth we soon find humans in need, people that live in a harsh, ugly world that are desperate for a little tenderness. The acidity of their lives is killing them. So we begin by being tender toward ourselves, by being not too critical or harsh, and we offer that same feeling to others. It starts with the act of looking at the world with a soft eye and then we lean forward to embrace humanity and serve in whatever way we can

COUNTING DOWN TO THE END OF HEALTH CARE AS WE KNOW IT How to be healthy without ObamaCare, Medicare or health insurance As we sit on the edge of our seats awaiting word of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on the constitutionality of the Affordable Care Act, one thing is clear – no matter what the outcome, the days of affordable, accessible and comprehensive health insurance are over for most of us. The state of healthcare is already disastrous; the United States ranks 50th in the world in terms of expected lifespan according to the Central Intelligence Agency. The 2012 report of The Annual Review of Public Health reported that, “…one-third of all deaths in the United States can be linked to [income and economic] inequality.
