Donna Childs was formerly based in Zurich, Switzerland where she was a senior executive of the Swiss Reinsurance Company, a leading globalreinsurer of property-casualty risks. Her responsibilities included advising companies in respect of their risk management and business continuity strategies. This experience proved critical after she returned to the U.S. to start her own small business. Her business was located in the so-called "Zone 1" of the World Trade Center on 9-11. In addition to being a human tragedy, 9-11 was an economic catastrophe for Lower Manhattan small businesses, as few were prepared to work through the disruptions. Donna's business was among the fortunate few. Thanks to her reinsurance experience, her business was fully prepared with a cost-effective protection plan. Her insurance claims were paid in full, 100 cents on the dollar, within three days of submission. The Department of Homeland Security profiled Donna's small business in connection with its "Ready for Business" campaign.

David Chandler has a Bachelor's degree in physics from Harvey Mudd College and a Master's in Mathematics from California Polytechnic University. He has taught physics and mathematics at the high school and college levels since 1972 and worked as a free lance programmer, author, and inventor.
David is most known in the 9/11 Truth Movement for his confrontation with NIST over the freefall of Building 7. NIST
claimed, in their preliminary report that the building fell 40% slower than freefall. Using video tracking software David proved that the roofline of Building 7 accelerated downward at absolute freefall for the first 2.5 seconds, which is smoking gun evidence that the building was demolished with explosives. NIST was forced to concede freefall in their final report, although they still deny the implications of that fact. David has presented his work as a collection of videos on YouTube available at www.911speakout.org and as a DVD, also available at that site.
Chris Chapman, a Florida swimming pool contractor, was a tax paying, ticket paying type guy until, 1988, when he learned by listening to a recording on a cassette tape Howard Freeman explaining the Federal Reserve System and the IRS and the real truth how the American People have been deceived.
From that moment forth, it has been a life changing experience, he used to go to the IRS local office to ask questions to understand how the IRS has delegated authority in the several States.
With no responsive answers he decided in 1993 that he was not going to pay any more personal income tax and not going to file the 1040 form any more.
In 2007 he was subpoena to appear before the grand jury, he did, and since then he has not heard back from the grand jury or the IRS, and they don’t visit him during the holidays any more like they use to.

Michael Clark will be with us to talk about how ordinary people can enjoy the security today only available to the wealthy. Clark calls it a short lesson in reality. We have all seen it happen to those around us. We are one lawsuit, one heart attack, or one car accident away from losing everything they own…
Medical debt…the result of a heart attack, stroke, cancer, monthly prescriptions, Alzheimer’s, etc…is the number one cause of bankruptcy and foreclosure…you have no control!
Litigation…lawsuits are the number two method of acquiring wealth. If you own assets, you are a target. The more successful you are, the bigger target you become…you have no control!
Identity theft…the fastest growing crime in the world. It can cost thousands of dollars, and hundreds of hours trying to prove your innocence…and many still end up losing everything they own and filing for bankruptcy…you have no control!
Other ways of instantly losing control of your life…a serious automobile accident, nursing home spend-down, personal or business bankruptcy, government-IRS lien or seizure, death/probate, and much, much more…YOU HAVE NO CONTROL!
Michael knows how to protect himself – and how you can get real protection.
