Throughout the book, Ruscito challenges common perceptions about divorce. He presents it not as the end of a family but as the start of a conscious chapter. He shares his honest journey of getting married young, bringing up three daughters, enduring the emotional and financial tribulations of divorce, and finally building a successful blended family. The multi-layered nature of co-parenting, custody, and bringing new partners into the family life may be quite daunting, and Ruscito’s personal experience illuminates how it is possible to deal with it effectively.

Divorce is usually a source of turmoil, confusion, and emotional stress, particularly when children are involved. Accordingly, Ruscito emphasizes dignity, communication, and respect, and demonstrates how parents can prioritize their children’s needs while also attending to their personal healing journeys. He believes that custody agreements should be in the best interests of children and should replace bitterness with cooperation. In this way, the book is a guide for individuals facing separation, newly divorced parents, those who are managing blended families, and even friends or relatives who are aiding their loved ones through challenging circumstances. 

Ruscito’s mission is to show parents that divorce need not destroy a family’s future. Rather, through proper outlook and counseling, families can build good relationships and provide an environment where children and parents can prosper. Readers are also advised to change their mindset, forgive, and develop healthy relationships to enhance family stability in the long term. Ruscito also gives the reader hope that, despite the most difficult stages of life, one can still achieve peace and stability.

Split, Not Shattered: A Practical Guide to Peaceful Co-Parenting, Blended Families, and Emotional Resilience is available now on Amazon in Kindle Edition.

• Author and preparedness expert Ernie Williams’ newly released book, “Wired for Disaster: How to Prepare for and Navigate a Post-EMP World,” has reached #1 in multiple Amazon categories. The book provides readers with practical knowledge about electromagnetic pulse (EMP) threats and the steps to prepare for sudden power system failures.

Jackson, Tennessee, 14th March 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Ernie Williams, Co-Founder and President of Mainstream Green Solutions, has acheived a major milestone as his book, Wired for Disaster: How to Prepare for and Navigate a Post-EMP World, becomes the #1 New Release in Engineering Power Systems, #1 New Release in Home Energy, and #1 New Release in Electric Energy, while also climbing to #11 in Electromagnetism overall. The title was released in January 2026 as interest in practical preparedness strategies grows, with people beginning to consider the fragility of modern infrastructure.

In Wired for Disaster, Williams addresses a question that many individuals overlook as reliance on power structures grows: what happens when the electrical grid suddenly stops working? Electromagnetic pulse events occurring through natural phenomena or human action pose serious risks. Such an event could disrupt power systems, communications, and digital technology within seconds. The book explores how EMP events occur, what their real-world impact could be, and a complete, clear approach to preparing for, surviving, and rebuilding after such an event. 

Williams draws on years of professional, hands-on experience to provide readers with actionable guidance, including stocking essential resources such as food, water, and medical supplies, methods for protecting electronics from EMP damage, and ways to develop alternative power sources to keep homes functioning when the grid fails. As a strategist, Williams emphasizes that preparation is not about panic but about responsibility and foresight. He writes, “In an emergency, you won’t have time to start thinking about what you should have done.” 

The book is enriched by Williams’ diverse professional background and his inspiration from his father, who was a volunteer firefighter, as is Williams himself. As a young boy, he grew up watching how his father was always prepared for emergencies, a behaviour that saved his life on multiple occasions. Through Mainstream Green Solutions, Williams enables the same preparedness by focusing on solar power design and installation. The company provides energy solutions ranging from small off-grid systems for recreational vehicles to large-scale solar installations.

His interest in preparedness grew alongside his work in renewable energy. As Williams explains in the book, “I’ve been in the solar industry for over 16 years now, and from the beginning, what drove me wasn’t just a love for renewable energy, it was a desire to help people prepare. Not just for outages or bad weather, but for a future where the grid can’t be taken for granted.”

Wired for Disaster is a 235-page guide perfect for readers in cities, suburbs, and rural areas alike. The book is ready to help individuals understand modern vulnerabilities by offering the steps that strengthen personal and community resilience.

The book is available in Kindle Edition and Print Replica format on Amazon.

From Danish classrooms and teacher outreach to Geneva forums and projects reaching South Asia and New York, Scientology-supported initiatives continue to frame human-rights literacy as a practical civic tool

Brussels, Brussels, Belgium, 14th Mar 2026— Human-rights education remains one of the clearest areas of public activity linked to Scientologists across Europe, with recent work ranging from school-facing outreach in Denmark and community initiatives in Italy to institutional dialogue in Geneva and partnerships extending beyond the continent. Much of that activity is carried out through Youth for Human Rights International and United for Human Rights, educational initiatives supported by Scientologists and the Church of Scientology and centered on the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The broader framework is consistent with the United Nations’ own approach to human-rights education. The UN Declaration on Human Rights Education and Training describes access to such education as essential to promoting universal respect for rights and fundamental freedoms.

One of the most visible current examples comes from Denmark. According to Youth for Human Rights DK, volunteers attending the country’s yearly national Teacher’s Fair introduced several hundred visitors to the campaign and placed 79 Educator Kits directly into teachers’ hands. The Danish group says that, with that latest distribution, more than 40 percent of Danish schools now have an Educator Kit. The figures build on a longer record already noted by Scientology Europe, which reports that Youth for Human Rights Denmark has been active since 2006 through classroom discussions, film screenings, creative workshops and the annual Walk for Human Rights in Copenhagen, and that the programme has received backing from the City of Copenhagen and support from Denmark’s Ministry of Culture.

The Danish initiative reflects the educational emphasis of the wider network. Youth for Human Rights International traces its origins to a European-wide youth essay competition launched in 2001, with winners from Hungary, the Czech Republic and Austria honored in Geneva. The organization says it was founded by educator Dr. Mary Shuttleworth to teach young people about the Universal Declaration and encourage them to become advocates of tolerance and peace.

Within the European Union, that educational approach has also taken a more explicitly civic form. In February, the European Office of the Church of Scientology for Public Affairs and Human Rights launched Europe’s Values, Your Rights, a youth-oriented guide explaining the EU’s six core values — human dignity, freedom, democracy, equality, the rule of law and respect for human rights — in plain language with links to official European sources. Scientology Europe said the guide was designed to help young adults connect European legal protections with everyday situations, including school life, work, online activity and civic participation.

Elsewhere in Europe, local initiatives have continued to combine rights education with community dialogue. In Milan, the Church of Scientology hosted a December gathering organized by the association Diritti Umani e Tolleranza, bringing together representatives from Latin American and African communities living in northern Italy. Participants completed training based on the United for Human Rights program and discussed how to use those materials in youth work, neighborhood outreach and local association activity.

That same theme was visible in Geneva, where the Palais des Nations hosted the conference “Human Rights and Peace – Better Together” around Human Rights Day in December. The meeting brought together educators, academics, civil-society actors and institutional representatives to discuss the connection between human-rights protection, social inclusion and peace. A panel on freedom of thought, conscience and belief was chaired by Ivan Arjona-Pelado, president of the European Office of the Church of Scientology for Public Affairs and Human Rights.

Human-rights activity linked to European Scientologists has also extended beyond Europe itself. In August 2025, Scientology Europe highlighted support provided by volunteers in the Netherlands to a Dutch-registered foundation working in Sri Lanka. According to the report, Stichting Mission Lanka, working with Vision Media Academy, held its sixth journalism and human-rights workshop for 100 students in Rathnapura, Sri Lanka, using United for Human Rights materials supplied through that collaboration.

International summits have offered another route through which European-supported human-rights work has connected with audiences outside the continent. Youth for Human Rights notes that its International Human Rights Summits have been held in Geneva, Los Angeles and at the United Nations headquarters in New York. In 2024, Scientology Europe reported on the 18th International Human Rights Summit in New York, where 52 young representatives from 35 nations joined government officials, educators and advocates to discuss education, law, media and community action as vehicles for implementing the Universal Declaration.

For Scientologists, this work is presented as rooted in the teachings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, but expressed through secular educational and civic channels. The Creed of the Church of Scientology, written in 1954, affirms equal rights and inalienable freedoms, while the Code of a Scientologist describes a duty to work for human rights and justice through social reform.

The European Office describes its mission as representing the Church of Scientology and its humanitarian programs before the European Parliament, the European Commission, the Council of Europe, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe and the United Nations. On its official profile pages, the office also notes participation in the EU Agency for Fundamental Rights’ civil-society platform, reflecting the extent to which its public human-rights work is framed in dialogue with existing European and international institutions.

Ivan Arjona, representative of the Church of Scientology to the European Union, the OSCE, the Council of Europe and the United Nations, said: “Human rights are strongest when they are understood not only by specialists, but by teachers, students, families and local communities. What is happening across Europe — and in projects supported by Europeans abroad — shows that civic responsibility begins with knowing one’s rights and respecting the rights of others. That is fully in line with Europe’s democratic values, with human dignity at their core.”

The Church of Scientology, its churches, missions, groups and members are present across the European continent. Scientology Europe reports a continent-wide presence through more than 140 churches, missions and affiliated groups in at least 27 European nations, alongside thousands of community-based social betterment and reform initiatives focused on education, prevention and neighbourhood-level support, inspired by the work of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard.

Within Europe’s diverse national frameworks for religion, the Church’s recognitions continue to expand, with administrative and judicial authorities in Spain, Portugal, Sweden, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany Slovakia and others, as well as the European Court of Human Rights, having addressed and acknowledged Scientology communities as protected by the national and international provisions of Freedom of Religion or belief.
