Tom Cruise is currently in the UK to reshoot scenes for 'Edge of Tomorrow' (WENN)It is thought that in between shooting the film, Tom plans to treat Suri to a fun-filled day out either at Legoland Windsor, or to the popular theme park Chessington World of Adventures.
The youngster is staying with the 51-year-old actor in a luxury suite which he had redesigned whilst filming the movie last year.
Tom has taken over the entire top floor of the five-star hotel after spending £1000,000 in renovations, including having a gym set up in there.
The seven-year-old lives in New York City with her mother Katie Holmes (Splash)His choice of accommodation in Hertfordshire is due to the fact that a lot of the film has been shot at Leavesden studios.
Tom takes on the role of Lieutenant Colonel Bill Cage, a soldier fighting in a war with aliens who finds himself caught in a time loop of his last day in the battle, though he becomes better skilled along the way.
The upcoming movie also stars Emily Blunt, Bill Paxton and Charlotte Riley and is set for release in May 2014.
Tom spent £100,000 last year in renovating the top floor of The Grove Hotel & Spa last yearI posted this on their comments but have yet to see it appear:
"these are stories put out by his PR company..... there has been no photo of him with his daughter for over a year.... the last 'apparent' pic of him and Suri at upstate New York was, in fact, a photo taken the previous year to that. He has disconnected from his daughter as per scientology policy. Pic or shut the hell up as they say"
Scientology Loves The Internet — But For “Wogs” Only
AUGUST 7, 2013 BY 32 COMMENTS
Here is a recent item that came in from one of our correspondents.
What is interesting is the double standard it presents without any apparent irony.
It is promoting the wonders of the internet and spewing out a bunch of meaningless statistics — for all the massive advertising and hundreds of linked sites and millions spent to make their internet presence so “powerful” my blog — which has NO budget, no team working on it and no massive advertising is consistently ranked HIGHER than Scientology.org by Alexa! But set aside the stat mumbo jumbo and the feeble “successes” (this is seriously the best they could come up with out of millions of supposed visitors clamoring for information about Scientology on the internet?) this is saying we are spending your money to create a presence on the internet.
And meanwhile, out of the other side of their mouths, they are saying: : “It is out ethics to get information about Scientology on the internet” — the internet is apparently ONLY for “wogs”. They can look at the internet to get information about Scientology, in fact, we are spending millions of your dollars to try to reach them — but DON’T YOU DARE LOOK YOURSELF.
After all, ALL lies about Scientology come from “a couple of unemployed bloggers that occupy the lunatic fringe of the internet….” And if we are in fact the lunatic fringe, why are they worried?
But even more, if they actually believed their own bullshit, they would SEND Scientologists to our websites. After all, they keep telling them that these websites are PROOF of how well they are doing. You know, the squirrels are squealing because of how much expansion there is…. Thus, they should want people to get the “proof” of their amazing expansion by experiencing the squealing squirrels first hand….
Funny they don’t practice what they preach?
Introducing the world to Scientology: Over 22 million website visits in the last year alone Visitors to scientology.org come from all over the world to find the answer to the question, “What is Scientology?” Ads directing them to the website run around the clock as part of the biggest dissemination campaign in Scientology history. This campaign is entirely made possible by grants from the IAS. Visitors to the site have viewed over 78 million pages of information on Scientology in just the last year—and nearly 320 million pages since the campaign began in 2008. That works out to over 7,000 pages per hour or 2 pages per second. The website is translated into 16 languages and has hosted visitors from 23,349 cities in 231 countries and territories in the last 12 months. To enable visitors to respond, the site provides a place for people to ask questions and make originations. Here is what just a few of the visitors toscientology.org have to say: “I have been reading and looking into Scientology for a few months and am considering furthering my interest. Can you please advise the best way for me to achieve this aim?” India “Greetings! We are 17 students in northeastern India. We would like to join your church. Please send us more information as to how we can be part of the Scientology Church International.” England “I am currently teaching English as a second language in Mexico. I will be returning to the U.S. very soon and I am interested in Scientology. I’ve been watching your videos on YouTube and immersing myself in learning about it. I look forward to meeting you.” Mexico & U.S.A. “In Kinshasa (the capital of the Democratic Republic of the Congo) there is no Church of Scientology. Could you give me the name of someone I could talk to and share with?” Democratic Republic of the Congo “Hello. I’d like to visit your organization. I want to bring my two sons with me. I am particularly interested for my 14 year old who has had some problems at school, in communication with us, and in his lack of attention to things. I would like all of us to take some courses.” Mexico “I have a renewed interest in your organization. A number of years ago I was in one and I think what I did was called auditing. Do you still have the records and results of a test I did? If so, can I talk with someone about it?” Washington, U.S.A. “Hello. I have interest in the Scientology movement and wish to know more. I would very much like to find somewhere locally I could learn more about it. As a recent graduate I fear I need something to help shape my life.” England The Scientology Dissemination campaign is made possible by the continued support of IAS members. |
Additional Note: These supposed traffic numbers do not line up well with the main resource for tracking website popularity.
According to Alexa.com, Tony Ortega’s website is TWICE as popular as scientology.org in the US.
This blog, with just word of mouth alone, has a similar popularity to scientology.org in the US despite the huge money the RCS is pouring into paid advertising.
Here are the Alexa numbers.
(Note that the most popular website is #1. Thus the lower the number the more popular the website)

Narconon Arrowhead loses state certification
McALESTER — Narconon Arrowhead’s medical detox facility in McAlester has lost its state certification, officials say.
“Their temporary permit has expired and Arrowhead Medical Detox is not certified for medical detox,” said Jeff Desmukes of the Oklahoma Department of Mental Health Substance Abuse Services.
The permit expired May 16 after Narconon Arrowhead failed to correct deficiencies found by the state during earlier inspections, according to Desmukes.
He said the facility at 1500 S. George Nigh Expressway has been open since 2011.
Narconon Arrowhead has two facilities; one is the medical-detox facility in McAlester and the other is a non-medical drug rehab in Canadian.
Both Narconon facilities are non-profit and use the teachings of Church of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.
Narconon has faced investigations, lost certifications and state legislation has been passed after four deaths at the Canadian facility.
Stacy Dawn Murphy, 20, was found dead in a detox room at Narconon Arrowhead in 2012, the third reported death at the facility within a year. The circumstances of her death opened the door for an multi-agency investigation.
Two months before Murphy was found dead, Hillary Holten, 21, was found dead in her bed April 2012, and Gabriel Graves, 32, was found dead in his bed at the facility in October 2011.
Also under investigation is the 2009 death of Kaysie Dianne Werninck, 28. Werninck died at a local hospital while she was a client of Narconon Arrowhead’s rehab program.
The deaths are still under investigation by the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, the Pittsburg County Sheriff's Office and the District 18 District Attorney’s office. District Attorney Farley Ward told the News-Capital in July that the case remains open.
The deaths and investigation prompted legislators to cross party lines to pass a law called Senate Bill 295, also known as “Stacy’s Law” for Stacy Murphy. Co-authored by Sen. Tom Ivester D- Sayer and Rep. Jason Murphey R-Guthrie, Stacy’s Law will force drug rehabs such as Narconon Arrowhead to be certified by the Oklahoma Department of Mental Heath and Substance Abuse, giving the state oversight over such facilities.
Also since the deaths, numerous lawsuits have been filed against Narconon Arrowhead with allegations such as credit card fraud, wrongful death and employees trading drugs for sex with patients.
Tulsa Attorney Gary Richardson represents the family of Murphy along with several families suing Narconon Arrowhead.
And earlier this year, Narconon executives lost a counseling certification when the National Association of Forensic Counselors permanently revoked the Certified Chemical Dependency Counseling certification of Narconon CEO Gary Smith and several Narconon Arrowhead employees.
A call to Narconon for comment was not returned by presstime Wednesday.
