GALLAGHER is an American comedian and prop comic, known for smashing watermelons as part of his act.

Leo Anthony Gallagher was born at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He grew up in Lorain, Ohio until he was 9 years old. Because of his asthma he then moved to South Tampa, Florida, where he attended H.B. Plant High School. He graduated from the University of South Florida with a Chemical Engineering degree in 1970. He also received a minor in English Literature, which he used often in his skits to mock the language.

After college, Gallagher began working as comic/musician Jim Stafford's road manager. Stafford and Gallagher traveled to California in 1969, during which time Gallagher decided to perform himself. He began honing his own comedy act while frequenting both The Comedy Store and the Ice House. He was repeatedly denied appearance on The Tonight Show in the 1970s and 1980s, as Johnny Carson disliked prop comedy.[2] However, he was liked by some of the program's staff, and Gallagher eventually performed several times on the show when guest hosts were filling in for Carson.

Gallagher was one of the most popular and recognizable American comedians during the 1980s. He performed 14 comedy specials for Showtime. These shows have been re-broadcast numerous times, notably on Comedy Central.

Running for Governor (as an independent) in the 2003 California recall election, Gallagher finished 16th out of 135 candidates with 5,466 votes.

Gallagher's signature sketch is a pitch for the "Sledge-O-Matic," a large wooden mallet that he uses to smash a variety of food items and other objects, culminating with a watermelon. In addition to the Sledge-O-Matic, Gallagher's act features a variety of props, including a large trampoline designed to look like a couch.

While the Sledge-O-Matic act is an example of physical prop comedy, the act itself (and even its name) is a parody of ads for the Ronco Veg-O-Matic, a kitchen appliance that was heavily advertised on American television from the mid-1960s through the 1970s. Gallagher also uses wordplay in his act, pointing out the eccentricities of the English language.

In July 2012, Gallagher was featured in a television commercial for GEICO insurance, repeating his Sledge-O-Matic bit.

As an internationally recognized author, teacher and healer with more than 20 years experience in the Spiritual healing forum, Lisa found herself, in the mid 1990’s, being intimately summoned by the Akashic Masters to share their personal insights into her life and those of her clients. In 2005, Lisa took a deep dive into the Akashic Field, which lead her on the most fabulous 10 year journey. From this profound emersion she was called to start the Akashic Knowing School of Wisdom and to create resources to bring clarity and healing from the ancient Akashic knowledge to a broader audience. As the Akashic Knowing founder, facilitator and teacher, Lisa shares with her students the unconditional love, guidance, and wisdom that comes from the Masters of the Akashic Records. She accesses this wisdom with ease through Sacred Prayers given to her by the Akashic Lords. She teaches these prayers and energy healing tools to her students to create their own personal Akashic Record connection. Students may also advance to Certified Akashic Healing Consultant, allowing them to access the Akashic Records of another and begin a new career. In Akashic Healing Sessions with clients, Lisa specializes in clearing soul contracts, karma, and vows – and helping individuals align with their soul’s path.  Her unique healing technique called “Pain Body Release ” helps her clients let go of their accumulated emotional pain, from both their current and past lives. This ancient wisdom is here to help humanity create steps to the life their heart and soul desires. At this stage of my life, I am best known as an Akashic Record Teacher, Consultant, Healer, and author of The Infinite Wisdom of the Akashic Records. I am also blessed to be the mother of three. My life is filled with children, love, laughter, service and Akashic healing, but it has not always been this way. Allow me to share with you who I am, why I “get you” so much, and exactly WHAT you can do to get some crystal clear answers NOW.

I was similar to you, not so long ago.

I had a time in my life where I was questioning EVERYTHING.  I had the “perfect” life… I had a great corporate job, was making great money, and in a happy marriage. On the outside everything looked great, but on the inside I felt lost on my path – confused, exhausted and sick to my stomach – both figuratively and literally. Basically, my life just started to fall apart. I found myself chronically ill, and my body just began to turn off.   I could no longer function efficiently at my high-pressure job. I was doing all the right things, but nothing was working.  I tried Holistic doctors, acupuncturists, herbs, nutritionists, psychics, energy healers, meditation, and spiritual healing.  The works. Through this long and difficult experience, I was guided to dig deep inside of myself, and find my answers. When I did, I was given a gift that helped me to get my life back on track. I became so empowered by this knowledge, that I learned how to do the same for other. Since then, I’ve created a wonderful life and an amazing business helping people just like you to have lasting transformation. It can be painful when you are out of alignment with your soul mission, and what you came here to accomplish. I help individuals just like you, find the core truth of who you are, and to receive the messages of your soul so that you feel clear, able to move forward and be excited about your life. When you’re on purpose, life flows easier, there is greater clarity, and your ability to attract your good becomes high.

ALEXA MELO

Massachusetts-born, Culver City, CA-raised Alexa Melo is only 20, but the singer-guitarist sounds like she’s been through the wars. And she has, in a manner. Signed to a major label as a precocious teen, Melo was passed from producer to producer to producer before finding a sonic ally in Christian James Hand (The Mowgli’s). Now “emancipated” from her label deal, Melo independently released her self-titled debut this June, and it’s a far cry from the straight-up pop her handlers envisioned when they signed her.

At their most direct, Melo’s songs recall some of the strongest voices of the 1990s, but her palette extends beyond mere angsty-anthems. Much of the album, which began with Melo’s own ProTools recordings, reflects her stated influences of Radiohead, Bjork, Portishead, Jack White and Pink Floyd, and her guitar-playing abilities, as well as her vocal stylings, live up to her sonic ambitions.

Already receiving airplay on local L.A. radio stations including KROQ, Alt 98-7 and KCSN, Alexa and her six-piece band will continue to grow their fan base with live performances all over Southern California between now and the end of 2015 (and beyond).
