There were no second chances, no retakes, and no room for error! For an exhilarating 6 weeks, the NBC series PHENOMENON was broadcast into MILLIONS of households across the country. In the end, the viewing public voted for their favorite entertainer each week. Ultimately, the fate of the winner was in hands of the viewers at home. With electric performances that reached out and enchanted the American public, including judges Criss Angel, Uri Geller AND a panel of celebrity guests; MIKE SUPER proved he was the best of the best, and was awarded the prestigious title of ‘THE PHENOMENON.’ Through spectacular illusions and his own inimitable down‐to‐earth style and personality, Mike Super has pioneered a new form of magic that transcends the “trick.” As a Top Finalist on NBC’s #1 rated summer series ‘America’s Got Talent’ and chosen to be on the Season Premier episode of Penn & Teller ‘Fool Us’ ‐ Mike has emerged as magic’s newest celebrity, with a legion of fans numbering in the millions. Mike Super’s life has been characterized by an obsession and passion for magic. He has astonished millions of people with his craft, including the Hollywood elite. Mike has performed for Jeffrey Katzenberg, Jay Leno, Criss Angel, Regis Philbin, Craig Ferguson, Ellen DeGeneres, Disney’s Raven‐Symone, Joan Rivers, Garry Shandling and Robin Leach to name but a few! Mike’s ever‐growing popularity has garnered him many prestigious awards and honors. Mike was named THE PERFORMING ARTS ENTERTAINER OF THE YEAR for two consecutive years! Mike was honored by the International Magician's Society where he was presented with the prestigious Performing Arts Entertainer of the Year award, in front of an enthusiastic 1600+ people crowd! It was a great evening, and this marked Mike officially winning the award BACK to BACK! A rare and impressive feat considering this The Merlin Award is bestowed only to those who have achieved the highest level in their craft both nationally and internationally. The criteria that the IMS voting members consider are talent, showmanship, originality, skills, and above all the rare ability to entertain. The Merlin Award is considered to be the Oscars of Magic. Mike shares this award with the likes of David Copperfield, Penn & Teller, Criss Angel & Siegfried and Roy. Mike’s other honors include being named Performing Arts Entertainer of the Year, Best Performing Artist of the Year, Best Male Performer and Best Novelty Live Performer.

Despite all this, Mike humbly insists, it is the loyalty of his fan base that has been the most rewarding. His fans call themselves “The Superfreaks” and they number in the millions. .

Craig Ferguson
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JANUARY 13, 2009 RIVER ROCK CASINO RESORT & BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENT CRAIG FERGUSON FRIDAY, JUNE 12 – RIVER ROCK SHOW THEATRE SATURDAY, JUNE 13 – RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE Craig Ferguson entered the world of late night comedy following a diverse and eclectic career that encompasses film, stage and television. Born in Glasgow, Scotland, he got his start in the entertainment industry as a drummer for several punk bands in the UK. Following his musical stint, he began bartending at a local pub in Glasgow where he was introduced to Michael Boyd, the artistic director of The Tron Theatre in Glasgow who persuaded Ferguson to give acting a go. After several low playing acting gigs, he discovered he had a knack for comedy and was soon the star of his own BBC television show, “The Ferguson Theory” in 1994. After several stints on the English comedy circuit, Ferguson brought his act to the US in 1995 when he starred with Marie Osmond and Betty White in the short-lived ABC sitcom, “Maybe This Time.” After the show ended, the network decided to add the talented Scotsman to “The Drew Carey Show” where he joined the cast in 1996 playing the role of Drew’s boss, “Nigel Wick” for eight seasons. Along with acting, he has written such feature films as The Big Tease (1999) and Saving Grace (2000). He made his directorial debut with the 2003 film, I’ll Be There which he also wrote and starred in. It went on to receive the Audience Award for Best Film at the Aspen, Dallas and Valencia film festivals … he was also named “Best New Director” at the Napa Valley Film Festival.

Jewish Self-Hatred and the Larry Sanders Show
“Y’ALL KILLED HIM, WE DIDN’T” Jewish Self-Hatred and The Larry Sanders Show Vincent Brook University of Southern California Did the Jews invent self-hatred? A case can be made—from the production and the reception end. Centuries before they were branded collective Christ killers in the Gospel of St. Matthew, a calumny that laid the groundwork for both anti-Semitism and Jewish self-hatred, Jews themselves had planted the seeds of self-hatred for all humanity in the Garden of Eden. The biblical God’s banishment of the ur-couple from Paradise inflicted a primordial self-loathing that would prove, at least for the faithful, all but inexpungable. Then there’s the Jewish Freud, whose non-denominational take on Original Sin postulated a phylogenic and an ontogenic source: the collective killing of the Primal Father and the individual Oedipal complex. Freud’s daughter Anna, meanwhile, gave self-hatred back to the Jews through her concept of “identification with the aggressor,” which, while applicable universally, derived specifically from the observations of Jewish children who had survived Hitler Germany and yet identified positively with their Nazi persecutors and negatively with themselves as Jewish victims. Last not least, the poet laureate of existential angst, Franz Kafka, historicized self- hatred, laying the theoretical and experiential groundwork for what Jewish filmmaker Henry Bean calls “the ambivalent, self-doubting, self-hating modern condition.”1 To ascribe a privileged role for Jews in the encoding and decoding of self-hatred is certainly not to deny other groups’ significant enmeshment in the process. Just as Jews have introjected anti-Semitism, people of color, women, gays, and lesbians have internalized the damaging social messages of racism, misogyny, and homophobia, directing against themselves the projected hatred of the normative society.

THE MAGIC LAWYER® When Law Meets Magic
THE MAGIC LAWYER® When Law Meets Magic By Robert Speer, The Magic Lawyer® Copyright © 2009 Robert H. Speer, Jr., The Magic Lawyer® All rights reserved. No part of this book may be reproduced in any form, without the prior written permission of the author. INTRODUCTION "It’s kind of fun to do the impossible." -- Walt Disney Just who and what is The Magic Lawyer®1? I’m asked that question quite a bit. It is a persona, a brand, and a real person, all in one. It is what happened when law mixed with magic. It is what a perfect stranger remembers when they see my card in their wallet months after we met. It is the hope that my clients have that, no matter how bad their situation is, they know that their lawyer is doing his best “magic” for them in court. It represents a refreshing way to practice law - - a way that reminds the client that life can be fun, no matter what happened to them, or why they are in their current situation. It is also a really cool way to market Robert Speer, Attorney at Law. When I was about ten years old, my dad let me travel with him when he made his sales calls around the southeast. On our travels, we would always look forward to stopping at one of the Stuckey’s gas stations along the road. Stuckey’s gas stations are long gone, but my memory of them, and my dad, are not. In Stuckey’s, you could always find a rack of tricks and pranks made by the S.S.
