Kim Chandler of Xpatriate Magazine just told me about this cool, free site, where sources who would like to help a reporter out and be quoted in an article can sign up and receive emails about opportunities to help a reporter out.

I met Rose eight years ago at a conference in Brussels and just last week was delighted when her new CD, Instant Relaxation, landed in my post box. I have a number of similar tools for meditation and relaxation and thought this may well have been same old same old. I was wrong. It is stunning.

Jo Parfitt in Die Welt
Submitted by Jo Parfitt on Wed, 23/04/2008 - 11:35am.I was recently interviewed by Die Welt.
