Our Gang: The Little Rascals Part 2

This was really a great e-mail. This is
a black and white classic series that so
many people watched everyday for years.
It is so sad that each cast member has
died with the exception of 2. Where did
their lifes go so wrong. I hope you can
figure our by the pictures who is who.
It took forever to do this and then it
turned out like this. I would go back
and fix if I knewhow. If you were a fan
you will know who everyone is. Something
that I don't think that I ever knew was
Robert Blake played Spanky. Amazing to me.
Was Robert Blake ever charged with his
wife's murder?? If you know let me know..
I believe he was I am just not sure.

'Gifted Hands,' the Life Story of JHU's Ben Carson, Comes to TV

I hope the sun is as bright at your house
as it is at mine this beautifull Sunday
Morning.I would like to share my beautiful
Saturday night as I watched The Gifted Hands
what an inspiration..


The Gifted Hands is a movie that each
and every parent needs to watch. I watched
this twice Saturday night and was blessed
both times.I will watch it the third time
if I get the chance. A mother that had the
best in mind for her beautiful sons. The
encouraging road that she went down,being
a single parent, not being able to read,
the hurt and mental state of a broken marriage.
But she never dwelled on her life it was all
about her two beautiful sons life and believing
that someday they would make a diffence.
Take your children to the Library spend extra
time making them believe in themselves, it
is a big World but you can be as big as the
part you take in this world. Its no about where
you live or don't live. If both parents are active
in your life. It is about you and where you
would like to be in your life, Have a plan
and seek that plan everyday.
The sky is the limit for each and everyone
of us as parents, grandparents,sisters, brothers..
As you can tell I truly love Dr Ben Carson and
his life. Just all Gods work..Thank you for reading
if you havent't watched this movie please please do.





'Gifted Hands,' the Life Story of JHU's Ben Carson, Comes to TV

Cuba Gooding Jr. as Ben Carson
By Kim Hoppe
Johns Hopkins Medicine

Oscar winner Cuba Gooding Jr. stars in the upcoming TV movie Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story, which premieres Saturday, Feb. 7, on Turner Network Television. Based on the best-selling 1996 memoir of Benjamin S. Carson Sr., director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Children's Center, the movie traces Carson's life journey from Detroit's inner city to his career as a brain surgeon at Johns Hopkins.

A screening and reception to benefit the Carson Scholars Fund will be held on Monday, Feb. 2, on the East Baltimore campus (see below).

The memoir, crafted with Cecil Murphy, begins with his childhood on the streets of Detroit in the 1950s and 1960s. Carson faced difficulties early on, when his father abandoned the family. "All that I am, or ever hope to be, I owe to my mother," says Carson of his mother, Sonja, who pushed her sons to discover the pleasures of reading and the power of an education. Carson recalls her repeated words: "Bennie, if you can read, honey, you can learn just about anything you want to know. The doors of the world are open to people who can read."

With a new pair of glasses and encouragement to spend time at his local library, young Carson dived into the world of books. His scholastic performance improved dramatically. He went on to Yale University and the University of Michigan School of Medicine, refusing to give up on the dream he and his mother had for his future, even when negative peer pressure threatened to stand in his way.

Today, Carson maintains a full surgical practice at Johns Hopkins, is the author of four books and devotes time to helping young people overcome their medical limitations and fulfill their dreams. His well-attended "Think Big" presentations at Johns Hopkins are open to the public, by reservation. In 1994, he and his wife, Candy, established the Carson Scholars Fund to recognize and reward students in grades four to 11 who achieve academic excellence and demonstrate a strong commitment to their community. Since the fund's inception, more than 3,400 college scholarships — which are awarded without regard to race, creed, religion or financial need--have been awarded to students in 27 states and jurisdictions.

In June 2008, Carson received the Presidential Medal of Freedom from President George W. Bush. The White House honored him for "working to improve the lives of those suffering from neurological disorders" and because his "groundbreaking contributions to medicine and his inspiring efforts to help America's youth fulfill their potential have strengthened our nation."

Cuba Gooding Jr. most recently appeared opposite Denzel Washington and Russell Crowe in Ridley Scott's American Gangster. He received an Academy Award for his breakthrough performance in Jerry Maguire, for which he also received a Screen Actors Guild Award and a Golden Globe nomination. He is a six-time nominee for the NAACP Image Award, an honor he won for his performance in the drama Radio.



'Gifted Hands' Screening, Reception at Johns Hopkins

Tickets are now on sale through the Carson Scholars Fund for a celebration of Gifted Hands: The Ben Carson Story at 7 p.m. on Monday, Feb. 2, in Turner Auditorium, East Baltimore campus. (Doors open at 6:30 p.m.) Following a screening of the movie, guests are invited to a dessert reception hosted by Carson and his wife, Candy. Tickets are $75 to $1,000.

Duct Tape Roses For Pink Saturday

Another great Pink Saturday. Thank you Beverly at
Home Sweet Home for hosting this wonderful event.
Where friends visit friends and others make new friends.
I hope you have a great day and find lots of things
that may interest you. Thanks for stopping by
Magnolia Memories 08.
The original idea came from the duct tape club www.ducktapeclub.com. But their Instructions are very vague and there is only four non informative pictures, after making these roses mine did not turn out like these. So, I just came up with
my way.I'm not real good with directions.

step 1 Get your stuff together
What you will need for this project is: Some time: Not a lot but at least 10 minutes Some tape: I use Duck Tape brand Duct Tape Some floral wire: found almost in any florist or Walmart

step 2 Rip Tape!
Start by ripping a 2x2in strip of tape. It doesn't have to be exact, it fact i recommend making varying sizes of petals it makes it seem more real.

step 3 Making the Petals
1. Fold the top right corner over on itself making sure you leave some adhesive on the left side 2. Fold the top left corner over on itself making a triangle with some a…

step 4 Start making the rose.
Take your newly made petal and wrap it around the top of the "Stem"

step 5 Building off of the base
Repeat steps 2 and 3 to get petals. When adding petals I have found that it works the best if you add them in the fashion in the picture below, at an angle and then wra…


step 6 Finish the Petals
After a good amount of petals (your choice really) You should have something that looks like this.


step 7 Stem
Now you have a pretty good rose that you can use, but the wire stem is pokey and hurts when you get stabbed with it... So lets make it a little safer. Now take your stem…


step 8 Finishing up Take the excess of your stem color (or rip some more little squares) and apply them to the underside of the rose, adding another layer of protection to keeping it all together

"Through the Eyes of the Heart"

Have you ever had so many things in your life
going on that somehow you feel like you cannot
cope anymore??? Well that is where my life is today.
I ask anyone that may stumble upon my blog
to take a few minutes and pray for me.As I looked
on the web this morning at so many books that I
thought may help in my life, I came across Through
the Eyes of the Heart. Has anyone ever read this book??
If so please let me know.Thank you for stooping by
today.I'm trying very hard to get on the right path
Vikki

"Through the Eyes of the Heart" is a life changing book and ebook that will show you how to have peace.
It holds deep empowering heartfelt wisdom and knowing that you can connect with and use on your own.
What is written in its pages can accompany and enhance any belief you now hold ...
because this book is not about your religion or spiritual practices -
it is about you, what you are creating in your life and why -
and an incredible conscious self awareness to change it all.


The empowering words on its pages will guide you to experience something truly incredible in yourself.
And once you understand ... once you become aware ... your life will never be the same.
You will have the wisdom, the knowledge and the tools to experience true freedom.

Click here for comments from those who have read the book.

Happiness is yours when you come to understand your destiny lies in conscious self awareness,
Divine Love and the Law of Attraction. And as you truly come to understand this -
you will have found what you have been looking for.
Give yourself this gift of true insight, clarity and Christ consciousness.

You are taken into the depths of your own heart to find the truth about yourself and your life situations
and the consciousness you will experience is priceless.

Your life experiences are being created according to what's going on inside you.
This is why change begins with you ... along with your free will came the power of creation.
Once you understand - once you hold this incredible consciousness and self awareness ...
life will never be the same as it was. You will have the wisdom to make your life better in every way.
You can search the world for your answers but until you truly understand yourself,
the happiness, healing, inner wisdom and peace you seek will continually evade you.
For in truth, it is not the world you need to be searching ...
it is where your focus is taking you and why you are going there.
This is pure and true enlightenment.


Find the part of yourself so many of us have been searching for ... for a very long time.
Return to heartfelt knowing and conscious self awareness.
Take a look at yourself "Through the Eyes of the Heart"

This empowering insight and awareness is also available by personal and in group sessions.


'Cause and Effect' ... If the action you are taking or not taking never changes ...
the experience you are having will remain the same.
Many books and ebooks teach you about everything in life ...
This book teaches you about yourself, it explains why your life experiences are what they are,
it helps you re-discover and see yourself at a much deeper level,
and it clearly teaches the way to change the way you are experiencing life.
This is a life altering, life changing book. It was written by Unity with great Love,
in service to anyone searching for a clear path into their Divinity and true happiness.

If you don't feel good, have peace or happiness in any part of your life, this book is for you.
If you don't love yourself or you don't feel loved,
If you have low self esteem, if you feel lost, sad or confused,
if you worry about what others think or say about you, if you don't like your body,
if you don't have good health, if your worried about getting old,
worried about what's wrong or what isn't in your life, if you aren't happy in your job,
if you aren't happy in a partner relationship, if you don't have a relationship,
if you are being challenged in any relationship where you have to get along with another,
if you don't know which spiritual path, understanding and knowledge
serves you most or speaks the truth, then dear one ...
this book and the beautiful insight and wisdom it holds is for you.



Life change, happiness, feeling good and having the life experiences you desire are yours
when you become aware of how and what you are creating in your life.

“Greater in battle than the man who would conquer a thousand-thousand men,
is he who would conquer just one - himself.

Come and explore this awareness ... for this heartfelt adventure is truly all about you
and how you can create and experience your life beautifully.





Understand yourself on a much deeper level ...

Have heartfelt wisdom you can truly change your life experiences with.
For what good is any information given, if you aren't given the way to experience what you truly desire?
This is self-empowerment at the highest level for those who really want to know for themselves.
