As the sole owner of the Exclusive Family Law Office known as Attorney Marilyn D. York, Inc., Marilyn and her firm specialize in representing men in their divorce, custody and all family law battles. Marilyn is a certified Family Law Specialist by the Nevada State Bar. After 3 years of working for other law firms, including two very elite Beverly Hills family law firms to the Stars, Marilyn started her own firm in 2001 with just one part-time employee. Today, 15 years later, her firm has 5 attorneys, 3 paralegals, and 4 business staff employees, and is the largest exclusive family law firm in Northern Nevada.
Marilyn began practicing law in California in 1998 and passed the Nevada Bar in 1999. She graduated a year early from high school and finished law school in just two years, allowing her to become an attorney at just 22 years old. She is a Reno High School and UNR graduate.
Marilyn chose her career because of her passion for families, children and relationships. Marilyn focuses on representing men because they are crucial to the upbringing of their children and yet they are disadvantaged, disfavored and under-represented in family court. However, Marilyn may be more well know for her off color sense of humor and edgy advertising. In fact, Marilyn has received national attention for her ads, was featured in the national box office film “Divorce Inc.”, made an appearance on the Comedy Central show Tosh.O for a web redemption just a year ago and has a television show in the works in Los Angeles.
Marilyn’s personal life is as scandalous as her advertising. She married her fourth husband just over a year ago and recently gave birth to their son in February of this year. He marks her third child from three different fathers. She likes to call her personal life “work study”. No one knows the world of divorce and family law from the inside out better than Marilyn.
Marilyn believes the way to be happy and fulfilled in life is to be genuine and to be truly genuine one needs to not only know their faults but they need to own those mistakes and flaws and even embrace them. Many would agree that one of Marilyn’s worst qualities is her crass sense of humor and potty mouth and yet she embraces her dark side and doesn’t apologize for it. In fact, she attributes much of her success to what she likes to call “owning her shit” and thinks others should do the same. In our present world overrun with scripted “reality tv”, Hollywood politicians, plastic people who are half embalmed to avoid aging, catfish internet profiles, fast food, fake tans and an obsession with being “PC”, Marilyn credits her success to being none of the above (except for the fake boobs of course).

Wendie Colter, Medical Intuitive, Clairvoyant and Master Healer Explains How Anyone Can Master this Extraordinary Work!
Imagine having the ability to “see” someone’s illness and understand the core issues underlying it simply by focusing your thoughts on them! MEDICAL INTUITION…It’s no longer a fantasy or the realm of storied shamans.
A Master Healer, Medical Intuitive and Clairvoyant, Wendie Colter will captivate your audience as she shares her personal story about her childhood clairvoyance, her intriguing experiences successfully assessing and uncovering the root causes of dramatically challenging medical problems – and providing laser-sharp guidance for patients’ paths to recovery. Her unique training program teaches Medical Intuition. She refers to this skill evaluating patients as being able to “get a view of all their systems” such as circulatory, lymph, endocrine and nervous systems. An engaging and informative guest, she has been featured on OM Times Radio and numerous other programs.
Wendie is one of a very few instructors of medical intuition in the U.S., successfully training doctors, nurses, therapists and energy healers. Medical intuition is used by practitioners in many therapeutic methods from surgery and chemotherapy to psychology, massage therapy and Reiki, since it is a very neutral approach and a skill set, rather than a modality itself.
Health care providers learn fast and effective pinpoint visual identification skills to locate and evaluate the root causes of imbalance, illness and disease in clients and patients. This skill enhances the accuracy and completeness of medical evaluations and assessments. Noted doctors, nurses, psychologists and health professionals from every discipline report that Wendie’s Medical Intuitive Training, was pivotal for them.
"A great course that provides the tools for anyone to enhance their intuition." -- Mimi Guarneri, MD, FACC, ABOIM, President, Academy of Integrative Health & Medicine (AIHM)
"After learning how to connect intuitively with my clients using Wendie's methods, my work has become deeper and more effective. In my psychotherapy practice I am now able to offer witnessing that taps into a person's self-knowing and self-acceptance in ways I didn't know were possible." - Anne Stirling Hastings, Ph.D., Psychologist and Author
“I now have the knowledge and confidence to see images through intuition, which gets to the core issues that underlie my client’s health issues. This allows me to focus my energy work more accurately and effect change more efficiently. Wendie is an outstanding teacher who is capable of guiding and encouraging anyone to make use of their natural intuitive capabilities.” – Linda Negrin, Pranic Healing® Practitioner and Author
Wendie has had a thriving private practice in Los Angeles for over fifteen years, and has been teaching intuitive development and energy medicine for nearly ten years. Her unique, comprehensive program in Medical Intuition is approved for Continuing Education credits.
BASS SINGER RAY WALKER
WAS A MEMBER OF "THE JORDANAIRES"
FOR 54 YEARS
LEGENDARY BACKUP SINGERS FOR ELVIS PRESLEY
Ray Walker dropped out of school in 1955, moved to Centerville, Tennessee, where he helped to build a radio station, WHLP, worked with the local Church, and, became the youngest school principal in the history of Tennessee. He came back to college in 1956 and graduated in June 1957, with a BA Degree in Speech, Music, Bible, and, Education; worked for Werthan Bag Company during the Summer. By that time Ray and wife Marilyn's third child was on the way.
Ray continued working for the local Church and, in the Fall began teaching school in Davidson County Schools, where he was Assistant Principal, Coach, and commanded a split seventh and eighth grade class. It was April 1958 now, and through a business call to David Lipscomb College, Ray was put in touch with the Jordanaires by his former Choral Director. Gordon Stoker had called there, just prior to Ray's call, to see if the Music Department knew of a bass singer who might fit their requirements. When Ray spoke with the professor, he said to give them his name, which the professor did. Ray was called that afternoon, auditioned at 11:00 that evening, was called at the school the next day and asked to go to Hollywood to do some recording. The school board let him off, he went, came home and completed his school year of teaching, and joined the Jordanaires, officially, June 1, 1958.
Since that time, while working with the Jordanaires, he had a successful, daily, morning show, "YOUR OWN TIME" on the ABC Channel in Nashville in 1976. Ray has done modeling, numerous radio, television, magazine and newspaper commercials (locally and nationally). He was a deputy sheriff (as a liaison between trouble youth and distraught families) for twenty-some years and, as were all the Jordanaires, an honorary member of the Tennessee Governor's Staff in Tennessee for many years.
Among the accolades the group has received during his tenure with The Jordanaires is induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame, the NACMAI (North American Country Music Association International) Hall of Fame, the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, Rockabilly Hall of Fame, Vocal Group Hall of Fame and others. Ray was inducted into The Rockabilly Hall of Fame, individually, in 2013. He was, also, awarded the "Avalon Award", the highest award given for contribution and accomplishment by his alma mater', David Lipscomb University, in 2005.
During the early 1960s, Ray Walker, Neal Matthews, Jr., Hoyt Hawkins and Gordon Stoker helped mold the genre of Country Music known as "The Nashville Sound", singing backup harmonies to such artists as Elvis Presley, Patsy Cline, Jim Reeves, Loretta Lynn, Rick Nelson, Kitty Wells, Dolly Parton, Billy Ray Cyrus, and many others to numerous to mention.
Also known for his solo recordings, Walker has helped in the development of albums and CDs of a cappella composition performed, among others, by the Freed-Hardeman University Singers and the Harding University Choir. For years, he served as song director for "The Amazing Grace" Bible program, produced by the Madison Church of Christ in the Nashville suburb. Marilyn was awarded "THE HEART OF A SERVANT AWARD" for her work with battered women.
Ray has over 600 a cappella worship songs recorded, reportedly being heard in 77 nations. Walker has been recorded nearly every week since he was 13 years old. He began singing in public at 6 years old. In the late 1940s, Ray was recorded, first time, on his Dad's wire recorder every week until he was 18; in the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, 1980s and 1990s, and 2000s, he was sometimes recorded on 200 songs a week, as aids in church worship in spirit and truth series. Ray has found time to be involved in over three thousand sing-outs, youth rallies, appearances of his own.
Up to 2013, it is estimated that Walker has been recorded on more than 200,000 songs (including repeats for different services and classes), and including his professional recording with the Jordanaires, and is reservedly believed to be the most recorded voice in the history of music during his 66 years of performing.
Ray Walker is currently one of the ministers of the Waverly Church of Christ in Waverly, Tennessee. Ray continues to lead singing for congregations of the Churches of Christ.
Ray was the Bass Singer in "THE JORDANAIRES" for 54 years and 345 days, when upon the passing of Gordon Stoker, March 27, 2013, "THE JORDANAIRES" as a group, officially, came to an end. Ray, occasionally, performs with country crooner Ronnie McDowell, and others, in programs dedicated to the memory of Elvis Presley.

John J. Forster is the Activities Coordinator for the group 'Committee for the Capital City'. He is also Co-founder of Initiative DC, which led the successful effort to amend the DC Home Rule Act to provide for the voting rights of initiative, referendum, and recall. John has been a DC resident since 1977.
The 'Committee for the Capital City' was formed in 1995 by civic-minded citizens of the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia who are united in their desire to preserve and protect the unique character and beauty of the nation’s capital city while providing full democratic rights to its residents. The membership includes Democrats and Republicans, black and white, young and old, of many different occupations and income levels. They welcome all who would join with in pursuit of political justice and equality for the people of the District of Columbia.
John writes - in an article written for The Washington Post 'The Other Path To Statehood', 2016:
"Creating a state of the District of Columbia (or whatever name they give it) faces too many obstacles.
Congressional Republicans almost universally oppose the addition of two new senators from the District and would certainly block such a proposal. It is unlikely that legislators from either Maryland or Virginia would ultimately support a new state of the District of Columbia if that state had the power to levy a commuter tax, as it surely would. Politicians from large states might object to the dilution of their Senate power. Likewise, some rural state legislators might object to empowering the District with statehood for what they see as essentially a city. For these reasons, the chance of the District becoming a new state looks remote.
But there is a better way to achieve D.C. statehood.
The other path: join an existing state.
Imagine the District becoming Douglass County, Md. As a new unique jurisdiction in Maryland, the District would honor one of its most famous residents: the great abolitionist Frederick Douglass. And it would retain its unique identity while gaining both full voting rights and full home rule.
Could this approach win the needed support in Congress, Maryland and the District?
Reunion with Maryland probably would gain bipartisan support in Congress because Republicans have demonstrated support for giving D.C. residents voting rights through Maryland-based proposals that would not add two senators. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders in Maryland surely would like to gain almost 700,000 new residents who, with their addition, would make Maryland more Democratic, more highly educated and wealthier. (Compared with Maryland, the District has a higher percentage of registered Democrats, a higher percentage of college graduates and a higher per-capita income.)
Once D.C. residents realize that the state of the District of Columbia is a bridge too far, they will support achieving statehood citizenship with Maryland’s help. Voting rights and full home rule are the goals, and both can be achieved by reuniting with Maryland.
There is, of course, a precedent for this. The District was originally created with land ceded from Virginia and Maryland. The Virginia portion was successfully returned to Virginia in 1847 after Virginia voters approved it the prior year.
Douglass County, Md., is the best path to D.C. statehood."
