Dennis L. Boaz Introduces a New Vision of Human Rights in “Seven Rights for Citizen Slackers”

Dennis L. Boaz, a former government attorney, teacher, and student/participant in the California Bay Area psycho-spiritual movement of the 70's, presents “Seven Rights for Citizen Slackers,” a work that blends memoir, legal insight, and philosophical exploration. The book follows his journey from a young Oakland lawyer facing personal upheaval to a thinker developing a new framework for understanding human rights and social systems.


At the core of the book is the seven rights schematic, a new and unique organizational system whose origins are drawn from two ancient systems of consciousness and one relatively modern statement of rights: the Egyptian Tarot, the Upanishad/Hindu chakras, and the American Declaration of Independence. Boaz reminds us that human rights vest at birth and are not distant aspirations but fundamental wants/desires. The aspirations are the realization, encouragement, and implementation of them. Boaz demonstrates that by applying the seven rights schematic to the institutions of government, education, commerce, culture, and safety, everyone, especially students and workers, will be more balanced and happier. Boaz realizes that the changes required to create such a society will require many constitutional changes and proposes that more than 30 constitutional amendments should be introduced at an Article Five Constitutional Convention.


The book traces Boaz's spiritual, and emotional development from 1970, through 1975 following his marital breakup. His alternative political evolution from late 1975 through 1980 begins upon his realization of the Declaration's failed premise and promise that governments are initiated to secure the people's rights. This ideal was in sharp contrast to the nationalistic goals stated in the Constitution's Preamble. He reasons that even if the Revolutionary Founders believed that government should be founded on the people's rights, that all rights must be included: Otherwise, any rights left out would become subject to endless conflict and litigation. Boaz then guides the reader through his step-by-step process of creating and naming each right of a holistic and comprehensive body of rights; so practical and logical that it provides a blueprint for a balanced and fiscally responsible federal budget among social, safety, cultural and educational rights.


In addition, it provides for an educational curriculum of 196 subjects balancing the individual's mental, physical, emotional, and creative personal attributes coupled with an integrated comprehensive body of subjects corresponding to social, educational, cultural, and safety rights. Boaz suggests that such a comprehensive education will be necessary to stay abreast of AI technology.


The weaving of chronological colorful memoir includes confrontations from different California locales to Guahan (Guam) and the CNMI (Saipan). Perhaps the most amusing of them all was the defiant act of rebellion commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence when he smoked a marijuana joint in the San Francisco Federal Building in January, 1976, a week prior to the Patty Hearst trial.


His most dramatic, mystical and consequential controversy was his representation of Gary Gilmore, the convict who refused to appeal and was the first convict executed in the United States in more than ten years, when Boaz appeared before the Supreme Court of Utah and successfully asked the court to remove his client's stay of execution. (Boaz would later acknowledge he was morally wrong to help his client be executed.) The Gilmore case experience has provided the book with some fascinating dialogue with Gilmore, Norman Mailer, Geraldo Rivera, Dr. Jack Kevorkian (Dr. Death), Tommy Lee Jones and Rosanna Arquette. (Boaz met for more than 12 hours with Norman Mailer when Mailer interviewed Boaz for his Pulitzer Prize-winning book, The Executioner's Song and met Jones and Arquette as a result of playing himself in the movie of the same name.


During all of his 70's adventures Boaz was not alone. There were several women who were his mentors, supporters, and lovers who were important to his emotional stability and happiness. Without them, his personal and intellectual evolution would have been less daring and meaningful.


Readers have described the book as original and thought-provoking. One reviewer noted, “Very good read, has lots of various elements and touches on having an article 5 convention. With world events happening, it will make you think twice about what is yet to come.” Another wrote, “The plot twists were nothing short of genius!”


“Seven Rights for Citizen Slackers” encourages readers to rethink how rights and human potential intersect within modern society. The book is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major online retailers.

“The Secrets of 9/11” Reveals Robert Schopmeyer's Years-Long Investigation into Why the US Intelligence Agencies failed to Prevent America's Deadliest Terrorist Attack

The book recounts key moments surrounding the Kuala Lumpur al-Qaeda meeting, the FBI's investigation into the USS Cole bombing, and the handling of intelligence by the CIA and FBI Headquarters ITOS unit.


Schopmeyer found from the official US government reports on 9/11, that if just the information the CIA and FBI HQ already had, had been shared with the FBI Cole bombing investigators in time, particularly the facts that two al Qaeda terrorists Kalid al Mihdhar and Nawaf al-Hazmi were inside the US to take part in a massive attack and they had taken part in planning the Cole bombing, the attacks on 9/11 could have been prevented.


While people at these two agencies had been hiding this information from January 4, 2001, when Walid bin Attach was identified with Mihdhar and Hazmi planning the Cole bombing, they were clearly aware when these two terrorists were found to be inside the US on August 22, 2001, three weeks prior to 9/11, that continuing to withhold this information from the Cole investigators would keep them from having the required “probable cause” they needed to start any investigation for these terrorists, and prevent them from stopping the attacks that took place on 9/11.


Since both agencies knew exactly what flights these terrorists had entered the US on, with that information, the Cole investigators could have gotten their credit card numbers and quickly located all ten terrorists whose tickets were purchased with these cards.


However, these agencies did not give this information to these investigators until September 13, 2001, two days after 9/11.


These agencies have never explained the reasons why they deliberately withheld this information until after these attacks had taken place when they clearly knew their direct actions in withholding this information, would result in the murder of thousands of Americans, nor have any of the official US government reports on 9/11, or even mainstream media and is only explained in detail in this one single book “The Secrets of 9/11: Why the CIA and FBI HQ Allowed the Attacks on 9/11,” now on Amazon.


The author's website: https://www.secretsof911.org/ has additional details on this intelligence diabolical, and an interview with the author also describes this book in more detail, at YouTube Robert Schopmeyer.

Stan Bain Showcases Two Powerful Books on Courage, Conflict, and Personal Resilience at MIBF 2026

Author and Vietnam veteran Stan Bain will showcase two distinctive works at The Eagle Literary's Booth 2-107 during the 2026 Manila International Book Fair: “Contractor: It's Not Always About Building” and “Return to Vietnam, The Memories: Facing my Demons and Coming to Terms With Them.”


Although the books explore very different worlds, both reflect Bain's interest in courage, resilience, difficult choices, and the determination to move forward when the path ahead is uncertain.


“Contractor: It's Not Always About Building” is a gripping political thriller that blends military precision, espionage, and high-stakes action into a compelling story. Its protagonist faces dangerous missions and difficult moral choices, delivering fast-paced suspense, authentic detail, and unexpected turns for fans of military thrillers and covert-operations fiction.


“Return to Vietnam, The Memories: Facing My Demons and Coming to Terms With Them” turns to a deeply personal chapter of Bain's life. The memoir reflects on his “return to Vietnam, the memories” he carried home from war, and the emotional courage required to confront the past and pursue understanding, peace, and healing.


Bain brings a wide range of experience to his writing. In addition to his military service, he spent 33 years with the U.S. Forest Service, taught specialized technical subjects, managed a contracting business, and developed a body of work shaped by both professional knowledge and personal reflection.


Presented together, the two books reveal different dimensions of Bain's storytelling—one driven by political intrigue and covert action, the other by memory, reflection, and personal healing. They will appeal to military-thriller fans, veterans, military families, memoir readers, and anyone drawn to stories of courage and perseverance.


Their display during MIBF 2026 will give international readers an opportunity to discover Stan Bain's range as a writer, from suspenseful fiction shaped by conflict and high-stakes choices to deeply personal reflections on service, memory, and healing.


For more information about Stan Bain and his two featured books, readers may follow official Manila International Book Fair announcements and exhibitor updates.

18 Years of Corporate Team Building in Singapore

Adventour Singapore Marks 18 Years Serving 1,500+ Corporate Clients Across APAC
  Singapore, Singapore - August 14, 2026 / Adventour Singapore / 
  
Adventour Singapore has marked its 18th year of operations, reaching a milestone of more than 1,500 corporate clients served across Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region since the company was established in 2008. The anniversary reflects sustained demand for structured, custom-designed team building and event planning services among organisations operating in one of Southeast Asia's most active business hubs.

Eighteen Years of Custom Corporate Programming

Since its founding in 2008, Adventour Singapore has built its practice around designing programmes tailored to each organisation's specific objectives -- whether those involve improving cross-departmental communication, onboarding large cohorts, or reinforcing company culture during periods of structural change. The company has positioned itself as a specialist in corporate team building Singapore engagements that are constructed around measurable outcomes rather than off-the-shelf formats.
Over the course of 18 years, the company has refined its methodology to address the distinct needs of multinational corporations, local enterprises, and regional organisations with operations spread across Asia-Pacific. That geographic breadth has shaped the design of its programmes, many of which are now built to function across culturally and linguistically diverse teams.

A Portfolio Built on Client Volume and Retention

The 1,500-client milestone spans industries including finance, technology, logistics, healthcare, and professional services. The client base extends beyond Singapore to organisations headquartered or operating across the APAC region, reflecting the cross-border nature of much of the demand for corporate team building activities Singapore companies and regional firms require.
Adventour Singapore's service offering covers two primary areas: custom team building programmes and end-to-end corporate event planning Singapore organisations use to manage large-scale internal events, offsite gatherings, and company-wide engagement initiatives. The event planning component handles programme design, venue coordination, facilitation, and post-event reporting, reducing the operational load on internal HR and people teams.

Brand Evolution Alongside Market Demand

The 18-year timeline has coincided with notable shifts in how Singapore and Asia-Pacific organisations approach workforce engagement. Adventour Singapore has adapted its programming accordingly -- expanding from largely outdoor and activity-based formats in its early years to a broader catalogue that includes structured collaboration workshops, leadership development scenarios, and hybrid formats designed for distributed teams.
The company's evolution from a single-market operator to a provider serving clients across Asia-Pacific reflects both organic client growth and a deliberate effort to build programmes that translate across the region's varied corporate cultures. High client satisfaction has been a consistent feature of the company's reported performance, with repeat engagements forming a significant portion of its annual volume.

About Adventour Singapore

Adventour Singapore is a corporate team building and event planning company established in 2008 and based in Singapore. The company specialises in custom team building programmes and end-to-end corporate event planning for organisations across Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. Over 18 years of operations, Adventour Singapore has served more than 1,500 corporate clients, delivering programmes focused on team cohesion, collaboration, and employee engagement.
