Few in the world of show business reach the career
heights that Whitney Houston attained with what seemed
like such ease. She won six Grammy Awards, thirty
Billboard Music Awards, and twenty-two American Music
Awards, and amassed a vast fortune before the age of
50. Her death shocked the entertainment world and her
fans. Author and biographer of superstars, Mark Bego
offers a unique look into the superstar?s life. He
watched closely while she was groomed for superstardom
and was at many of her key performances?including the
diva?s Carnegie Hall debut concert. Bego will discuss
how Whitney?s career suffered from her association with
the horrifying reality show, Being Bobby Brown, her
dynamic final film role in Sparkle (which will be
released posthumously), and how she claimed health
issues were ruining her performances, while she
continued to do massive quantities of drugs. Mark Bego
is the author of fifty-eight published books on rock
and roll and show business. Contact David Salidor at

05. ==> Can You Make Your Own Luck?
This time of year we hear a lot about leprechauns and
the ?luck of the Irish.? And while many think luck is
serendipitous and even fickle, recent scientific
research shows anyone can make their own luck by
following a few simple strategies. Ellen Whitehead says
it?s as easy as following your gut hunches and being
alert and aware ? and then acting on ? unexpected or
chance opportunities. ?The ancient art of Feng Shui
says that anyone can increase those same opportunities
simply by leaving bright lights on both outside and
immediately inside the front entryway door. The light
stimulates an energetic response while also
illuminating the pathway for possibility to come
knocking.? Ellen?s latest endeavor, The Luck Project,
is a compendium of celebrity anecdotes and time tested
advice aimed at creating a truly lucky life. She?s a
recurrent and frequent media guest and recently
appeared on the Mancow Muller show, Coast to Coast, and

is relatively safe, travel expert Gala Reitz says you
should take simple precautions and plan safety
strategies before you leave home. She?ll share basic
health safety tips and how to prepare your family in
case of a shipboard emergency. ?Once you get to your
room and before everyone goes off in different
directions, have a Mandatory Family E-Prep Meeting in
your state room. As a family, determine one place where
everyone will meet in the event of an emergency. Small
handheld walkie-talkies are a great idea to bring on a
cruise so everyone can stay in touch.? Reitz is
president of Sterling Travel Group. Contact her at
(702) 625-2784; sterling@sterlingtravelgroup.com
10. ==> What Politicians Get Wrong
Are you tired of all the partisan conflict and name-
calling during this election year? Why do politicians
keep presenting such a negative picture of America?s
future? Do a refreshing show on a guest who takes a
much brighter view of our country. Dr. Kirk Sinclair ?
The Hiking Humanitarian ? has come to a new
appreciation of Americans and their ability to solve
social problems, despite the dysfunctional gridlock in
Washington. He says, ?Politicians indulge us, while
interest groups expect us to treat their platforms as
gospel.? Sinclair, on the home stretch of a remarkable
5,000-mile walk across the country, has found that
Americans are banding together to help each other,
instead of waiting for the government to save them.
Sinclair is a speaker, teacher, musician and songwriter
and the leading expert on the modern nomadic culture of
long distance backpacking expeditions. He?s the author
of ?Systems Out of Balance? and the upcoming, ?The
Power of Kindness Across America.? Contact him at (860)

11. ==> Best Career Advice ? Think Like a 10-Year Old
Remember your childhood dreams? Did you long to be a
firefighter, a veterinarian or a movie star when you
grew up? Chances are, most of your audience members
have given up on pursuing their dream career and have
settled for a more attainable job. Is that the sensible
choice, or should they keep trying to follow their
passions? Start a lively discussion when you interview
career management expert Ginny Clarke. She asks, ?If
you could have lunch with your ten-year-old self, what
would your younger self say? Are you pursuing the goals
you once had? Explore the interests that appealed to
you then, and use them to chart a new course. You are
entitled to love what you do.? Invite her on your show
and hear her top strategies for turning childhood
dreams into a career. Ginny Clarke is an expert in
career management and executive coaching. She has a
recurring segment on CBS2?s morning show in Chicago.

12. ==> Social Media ? Are Your Friends Holding You
Back?
Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn; they?re for kids and
people who have a lot of free time, not serious
business people like you, right? Internet guru Mary
Comacho says social media isn?t just a fad, it?s a real
way of communicating, but it can be a blessing and a
curse for both individuals and businesses. ?Using
social media might seem like you?re expanding your
circle of friends and knowledge, but what you?re
actually doing ? without even knowing it ? is limiting
your Internet experience by creating a bubble around
your preferences.? And for a small business? ?Social
media can increase your ?findability? and improve
customer relationships, but it can also make you look
unprofessional.? Camacho is known as the Technology
Translator for small businesses trying to develop a Web
strategy and online presence. Her book is ?The Internet
Plan: A Workbook for Creating Your Online Strategy.?

When forensic behavioral scientist Jan Schwartz, Ph.D.,
found out her dog had cancer, she was devastated; the
much-loved 9-year old Golden Retriever was a part of
the family. Schwartz and her husband decided they
would forgo surgery and chemotherapy for this gentle-

20. ==> Are Men Like Horses?
Regardless of what scientists tell us about men and
women being in the same species, the world has known
for centuries that the sexes are from different corners
of the universe. Not only do they speak differently,
they look, react, dress, and party differently.
Whether in the boardroom, the bedroom, or the barn,
society?s attempt to call us ?similar? just doesn?t
work. But what about men and horses? By watching her
horses, Connie Thompson discovered more similarities
between her husband and her horses than she would have
thought possible. Whether you know anything about
horses or not, her hilarious, but dead-on insights will
have you laughing out loud and shouting ?OMG, that?s
me? or ?OMG, that?s him.? Connie gives men and women
the straight scoop they need to communicate effectively
with the other sex and her H.A.L.T.E.R. theory of
relationships gives people a fresh and funny way to see
each other. Thompson is the author of ?Happiness,

Stable Relationship with a Man (or a Horse).? Contact
