Award shows are spreading up all over the place little ones, big ones, and international awards shows. And now Channel 35, KYRK the new kid on the block has had their own award show. The difference however is that they help the little people. One of 40 stations owned and operated by Mako Communications Channel 35 provides more local programming to the community then any of the other stations in Las Vegas.

Which brings me to the point of the KYRK Channel 35 Awards Banquet held at Amlee Gourmet last Saturday. It was a fun night especially for our former Lieutenant Governor Lonnie Hammergren, who incidentally is one of the great neurosurgeons of our time.

Audie Morrow the national engineer for Mako Communications announced the awards for the evening starting with Ron Knight and his lovely Co-Host Kimberly, who host Out of Control, a late night weekly show discussing people's sexual preferences among other things. Well you should have seen some of those T.V. clips

The biggest laugh was the award Ron received showing the hips of peanut butter. I will let you imagine the rest check the cup out that Ron is holding in the picture. Ron by the way is also performing at the HOP on Friday nights. Another interesting award had gone to Jere Morrisey and Minnie Coston who received a certificate of appreciation from Bobbie Morrow, the Sales Manager of KYRK. Morrisey is a retired real-estate broker who is publishing a book on cooking and flying. Morrisey attends many of the T.V. Tapings at KYRK, bringing some of his famous chili dishes for tasting. It is somewhat like having a big happy family, Folks who have no premonition, who are down to earth. There were many other awards especially those who were presented with a shovel. That's for people who talk a lot but don't always get the job done. Oh well enough already.

Steven Lee the proprietor of Amlee Gourmet, who is also known for his creative cooking said he enjoys playing host to award shows. Many of the political figures of our community attend fund raisers at his restaurant. The unique point about Steven is his talents as a junket host. Here is a man who knows some of the wealthiest gamblers in Asia. Steven is helping the economy of Las Vegas. Congratulations Steven

What is it like to separate your spirit from your mind? That is a very good question which is unanswered by those who are not willing to make changes in their lives. Chris Liles, world renowned sculpture and artist who was mentioned in last weeks column is one of those rare individuals who can attest to the productivity of accessing and knowing your inner being. According to Liles, gut instinct is your spirit which will never fail you.

If you can use that in your daily living, keeping all that is around you positive, there is nothing you can't accomplish. Perhaps that is why some people can accomplish in 15 minutes what it takes others to accomplish in 7 years. I didn't talk about focusing and how to go about this. However, if you would like a copy of the manuscript entitled Accessing and Knowing Your Inner Being, mail your request to CSN News 2700 State Street suite B2 Las Vegas, NV. 89109. There will be no charge. This is a gift for those who want fuller communication with life.

The Scintas, the family entertainment show which includes comedy, and anything from Joe Cocker to, Dean Martin, Jerry Lewis, and Frank Sinatra has taken Las Vegas by storm. The Scintas are enjoying a tremendous success in Las Vegas. Frank Scinta said the group has been touring for 20 years before they arrived in Las Vegas. The Scintas first started at the Las Vegas Hilton's Night Club for an unlimited engagement then moving to the Masquerade Showroom at the Rio. Each one of the Scintas enjoys Las Vegas and believes it is a great community for raising a family. Many celebrities frequent their show including up and coming artist. Antonio Mecheri, a new world recording artist signed to Music Masters was very touched by the Scintas sincerity. "I was moved by the tribute that Frankie and his sister sang in honor to our American Soldiers and their families; it brought tears to my eyes."

A congratulation is the appropriate way to thank Absolute Boxing and Fitness Gym for providing young people a way to keep active in a positive manner.
