Beginning in September of 2011 Michael began a year-long personal transformation that included a diagnosis of prostate cancer, radical prostatectomy, follow up intensive radiation treatments and full blown impotence. He considers his resulting impotence to be one of the biggest blessings in his life.  It is because of his impotence that he and his partner discovered an entirely new approach to experiencing levels of emotional and physical intimacy that far exceeds anything either experienced prior to when things were working “correctly”.

It is his personal mission in life to serve other couples who struggle with emotional and physical intimacy due to ED, impotence or simply because they have lost their “spark” and use his communications skills to share what he has learned worldwide. Prior to this phase of his life, Michael was a highly regarded international speaker and author about technology. His media experience includes keynotes, radio and TV interviews, videos, articles for national publications and voice overs.

Kenny Mayne

Commentator

Los Angeles SportsCenter Anchor; The Mayne Event; Kenny Mayne’s Wider World of Sports

Kenny Mayne, who joined ESPN in May 1994, was named a Los Angeles-based SportsCenter anchor in August 2013.

In his work as an anchor and reporter, Mayne has become well known for his offbeat style, dry humor, and unique sayings (“thanks for having electricity”) and home run calls (“I am amused by the simplicity of this game!”).  Although he stands out in the studio – his most prominent roles have been on SportsCenter, ESPN2’s motorsports show, RPM 2Night and hosting both seasons of the sports trivia game show 2-Minute Drill – it truly shines in features, often humorous and currently his primary vehicle as a commentator at ESPN.  In his “The Mayne Event” segments on Sunday NFL Countdown – ranging from the fourth grader who wore a Brett Favre jersey for 600 days to the “real reason”  quarterbacks lick their fingers to making nachos with Martha Stewart for the Super Bowl XL pre-game show – his creativity and deadpan delivery distinguish his work.

From 2008 – 2011, he produced and starred in an original scripted series on ESPN.com titled Mayne Street.   Mayne played himself in a fictionalized version of life at the center of sports television.  In 2011, he shifted gears and debuted Kenny Mayne’s Wider World of Sports on ESPN.com.  Inspired by the iconic Wide World of Sports on ABC in days gone by, it takes a look at unusual sports from exotic and distant locales around the world.

For many years until 2011, Mayne also hosted ESPN’s horse racing coverage, a life-long passion, for which he was honored in 2006 with the Old Hilltop Award for excellence in covering thoroughbred racing from the Maryland Horse Breeders Association.

Mayne joined ESPN as an ESPN2 SportSmash anchor, providing five-minute score and news reports every half-hour, and as a feature reporter for SportsNight.  Beginning in September 1995, he served as the original host of ESPN2’s weekend auto racing news and highlights programs, Sunday morning’s RPM 2Day and RPM 2Night on Saturday and Sunday.  He also occasionally anchored SportsCenter until assuming that role fulltime in August 1997.

Prior to joining ESPN, Mayne had served as a freelance reporter and field producer for the network from 1990-1994.  “During that time,” Mayne says, “I only pursued one full-time television job.  ESPN.  I had the ESPN 800-number and called all the time with story ideas.  I guess they finally decided it was less expensive to hire me than to keep paying for my phone calls.”

Television, however, wasn’t always his primary form of employment.  He had worked at local stations from 1982-1990, but as recently as 1994, Mayne worked in sales for MCI.  Before that his career even included a stint assembling garbage cans.  “I had worked as a garbageman inSeattleduring college,” Mayne recalls, “and when I left local television in 1990, I called my old boss but the industry had passed me by.  They had switched to one-person trucks, so I took a position assembling the garbage cans.”

Mayne began his television career at KLVX-TV (a PBS affiliate) in Las Vegas, Nev., as a reporter in 1982.  He worked for KSTW-TV in the Tacoma/Seattle market from 1982-89, serving as a production assistant (1982-83), news writer (1983-86) and weekend sports anchor and weekday news reporter (1986-89).  As an anchor, Mayne was known for his offbeat style which included his “Dog Days of Summer Score Dog” segment, in which he used his dog to help give baseball scores.

A native of Kent, Wa., Mayne was born September 1, 1959.  He attended Wenatchee Valley Community College (Wenatchee, Wa.), where he was an honorable mention junior college All-American quarterback in 1978.  He was graduated from Universityof Nevada-Las Vegasin 1982 with a bachelor of arts degree in broadcasting.  While at UNLV, Mayne played football for two years and later signed as a free agent with the Seattle Seahawks (1982).  In 2006, he competed on ABC’s Dancing with the Stars.

Here is how Lisa Campion would describe her work.

I have been a professional psychic for over 20 years, and use a combination of intuition, energy healing and therapeutic techniques to help you understand yourself at deeper and deeper levels. My background includes training in Psychosynthesis and Systems Centered Therapy (a mindfulness technique), Full Spectrum Healing, Reiki, and other vibrational healing techniques.

I think my greatest gift as a healer is to really see people at the soul level. Spending an hour talking to your soul can be a wonderful gift to yourself! I will spend a lot of the session talking to you about what is great about you, helping you connect to your soul and your life’s purpose. And of course talk to you about whatever issues are on your mind. I am above all else practical (for a psychic!) and my hope is that you leave your session with some useful ideas and tools to help you shift your life.

Anthony  has experienced and worked on higher levels of consciousness for the past 12 years in connection with a group called "The Council Of Twelve". Anthony's experience is one of a growing number of celebrated cases,  like that of Zev Kolman the Israeli energy healer,  where unusual abilities developed following "higher dimensional" contact.  Anthony's transformation has been described as follows.

"After spending his life building a profession as a master tailor,  his whole world took a stunning turn when he was contacted by the inter-dimensional group often referred to as the Council of Twelve. It’s not the stuff of science fiction, honest. As we are Soul Beings that inhabit a human body, our souls know quite well that we share this Universe with many life forms and expressions.

As humanity makes (the ongoing) shift in  consciousness toward realizing its proper  and balanced place within the Universe commonwealth, these encounters with ‘alien’ beings will become common place. In fact, they happen so often already that as we open our minds and hearts – shift our consciousness – we will create space for others to come forward and share their experience without fear of reproach or worse as has all too often been the case for the past millennia here on planet Earth.

Anthony, however, is one of those Beings who can take it (rejection from the mainstream)  and he really doesn’t care what you think. The generosity of his heart can be felt in the blades of truth he imparts and if he wants us to get just one thing, it is that we are Sovereign Beings, not slaves. Our addiction to this world and its presumed comforts are quickly coming to an end and there is a new beginning unfolding at the same time. His lifelong empathic sensitivity has been enhanced in his recent transformation and consequent spiritual integration.

JACK ANDRAKA is a Maryland high school sophomore who at age 15 invented an inexpensive and sensitive dipstick-like sensor for the rapid and early detection of pancreatic, ovarian and lung cancers. After a close family friend died of pancreatic cancer, Jack (then a ninth grader) became interested in finding a better early-detection diagnostic test. He learned that the lack of a rapid, low-cost early screening method contributed to the poor survival rate among individuals with pancreatic cancer. After thinking further about the problem, he came up with a plan and a budget to put his ideas in motion.

He contacted about 200 research professionals at Johns Hopkins University and the National Institutes of Health about his plan. He got 199 rejection letters and then finally got an acceptance from Dr. Anirban Maitra, Professor of Pathology, Oncology and Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, who became his mentor. It was at Dr. Maitra’s lab where Jack developed his test.

The diagnostic method he developed is more than 90 percent accurate in detecting the presence of pancreatic cancer's biomarker protein called mesothelin, and earned him the grand prize $75,000 Gordon E. Moore Award – named for Intel’s co-founder – after competing with 1,500 other young scientists from 70 countries. He also won other prizes in smaller individual categories for a total award of $100,500, which he will use towards college. He has formed a company and has applied for both national and international patents.

Since then Jack has won the Smithsonian American Ingenuity Youth Award and has spoken at the Clinton Global Initiative, FutureMed,Chicago Ideas Week, Singularity U, TEDx MidAtlantic, TEDx Redmond, TEDx Orange Coast, TED New York Talent Search, TED Salon London and soon at TED @Long Beach . He has been featured in several documentaries including Morgan Spurlock’s Sundance Film Festival entry “ You don’t know Jack”, Linda Peters’ award winning film “Just Jack” as well on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer, CNN, BBC, Fox, Rede Record de Televisão and many radio, newspaper and magazine articles around the world

Julian Lampert's hallmark is Versatility; between the music of Gibbons, Bach, Beethoven, and Rachmaninoff, to his own compositions within latin, jazz, gospel and classical genres, Julian covers over 400 years of musical styles. 

Born into a musical family in Moscow, he immigrated with his family to the U.S. as a young child. Julian studied piano, harmony and counterpoint with his mother, Dr. Elyena Miremonde, a graduate of the Moscow Conservatory. At eight, he gave his first recital––an all-Tchaikovsky program. Four years later, he made his concerto debut under conductor Victor Rosenbaum and The Cambridge Concerto Players. This brought him to the attention of Richard Probst, at that time Director of Concerts & Artists at Steinway, and later Vice-President of Harold Shaw Concerts. Under Richard Probst’s auspices, Mr. Lampert would make many appearances in the United States, Europe and Russia. He has been coached by some of the world’s most distinguished artists, as Schura Cherkassky, Dorothy Taubman and Eliza Hansen who selected him for a Master-Course in Hamburg, Germany, in 1986 and ’87.

At 16, his recital at the St. Paul Trois-Chateaux Film Festival was broadcast by French Television. A year later, Mr. Lampert appeared on Radio France Internationale’s contemporary music series with Valery Afanassiev. In 1989, Mr. Lampert participated in the Marlboro Music Festival where he was coached by Rudolf Serkin and Richard Goode. He was the youngest artist at the Scotia Music Festival in 1991, directed that year by Pierre Boulez. At Amherst College, he worked with Pulitzer-Prize winning composer Lewis Spratlan and jazz conductor/author, Andrew Jaffe. Mr. Lampert was harpsichordist and pianist for Amherst Collegium Musicum and the Bach Festival directed by Blanche Moyse. He appeared at the Hall of the Kosciuszko Foundation in two festivals of Chopin directed by David Dubal.

After meeting with Fred Rogers—creator of Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood—who attended Mr. Lampert’s debut in Pittsburgh in 1999, Julian was inspired to write music for young people. He wrote many pieces and songs for music & arts workshops presented at The Miremonde Arts Center, founded by Mr. Lampert’s mother, Elyena Miremonde (please see www.miremondearts.org). He has twice served as jury-member of the Nicholas Flagello Young Pianists Competition of New York and has coached young composers in the Songcatchers Program in New York.

Since 1999, Mr. Lampert has been engaged as composer by figure-skating legends Ludmila & Oleg Protopopov, two-time Olympic gold medalists. They danced to his music in several televised productions, including their historic return to Russia in 2005 for the first time since their defection. In 1996, he was honored by the Scriabin Society of Moscow by being selected to inaugurate a festival of Scriabin’s music for the 125’th anniversary of his birth.

In 2006, Mr. Lampert made his debut with the Westchester Chamber Orchestra under Barry Charles Hoffman, performing Beethoven’s Fourth Concerto. Since 2007, The First Lady of St. Martin, Josianne Fleming, has presented Julian in series of recitals presented by the Rotary Club of Guadeloupe.

As Artistic Director of The Miremonde Arts Concert Series, Mr. Lampert has presented a remarkably diverse range of music, from the Baroque and Classical to Jazz and Latin genres. At Miremonde Arts, he has collaborated with Stefan Hoskuldsson—Metropolitan Opera Principal Flutist, The Kopelman String Quartet, Grammy-winning duo Eddy Davis & Conal Fowkes, and R&B vocalist Clayton Bryant, among others.

This year will see the release of two albums: "In Between", featuring originals within jazz, latin and gospel music, and "Lampert in Concert", presenting music by Haydn, Beethoven, Prokofiev, and Scriabin.
