This is What the World Looks Like

A bunch of greedy birds... But guess what once your supply is gone they too will fly away. Keep the supply that they demand and they are sure to stay around but only depending upon just how long you wish to entertain the foolishness in them.
Now I understand why I had to go through all the drama I went through in my life.
It was only to prepared me for today and show me how to keep snakes out my garden. Fresh fruit suppliers come and get some.

How many of us have taken a job b/c we have to pay the bills? Not because it is where you want to be or what you want to do with your life? Last year, as I was spending time with a few of the kids in my son's Kinder garden class, I asked them the age old classic question.. What do you want to be when you grow up? I heard, doctors, ballerinas, wresters, football players, etc.. but in reality, that Huxtable dream is not a bitter reality for most of us..If we didn't get a scholarship to school, or approval for student loans/grants, college was NOT an option..and what is the point if you don't even know what/how you want to apply it? But the thing is, not too many people grow up saying " I want to work at McDonald's!or I want to be a CSR!!! or I want to work at the hospital cleaning up bedpans." So, what happened in that time between those bright eyes and anxious dreams?!!?!? LIFE.. Life happened.. We end up falling in love, losing ourselves.. having kids, and losing sight on the one thing or few things that it takes to keep us happy, and instead of keeping steadfast on those dreams, a lot of us take on "In Stead of" positions.. You know.... "I am working at Verizon instead of going to school for what I really wanted to be doing with my life." " I am dealing with this Man INSTEAD of learning me and dealing with someone that can add to my life." Yeah, you know the type. Some people know their whole lives what/how their path is going to go.. they say a doctor when they are 5 years old, they study all years in school, hurdles pop up, and they jump over them, all the while keeping their eyes on that that doctoral prize. So what about the rest of us? It has taken me until the ripe old age of 26 to realize what I am passionate about. What keeps a smile on my face.. What I would do/already do for free but just happens to be an occupation.. I never really understood why some people make all the money in the world and some other people are so happy with their mediocre jobs... It's called happiness. Some people are just NOT meant to be millionaires..I mean look at teachers.. they are just happy enriching lives KNOWING that they cannot possibly make a lot of money in that occupational field.. Doesn't stop these universities from popping out teachers left and right... Others on the other hand, some just don't care.. they think that mediocrity is life, and that's all that they can ever have..Think about how many people you know that ain't about shit, ain't never been about shit, and always have something negative to say????? and How many years have you known them now? Yeah, they are one of those folks.. I never understood that, but unfortunately, that's not for me to understand... It's not my life... But never the less, Life has happened to most of us, mainly having UNEXPECTED kids.. and Now, you not only have to take care of them and assist in developing their dreams(if you are a good Parent), but you also have to work on YOU.. It's hard.. but Don't settle.. There's only two people that know what is going on in that head of yours.. You and who your religious choice...But my question to you is..When is it all enough? when are you going to start doing/going after what makes you happy? When will you finally get fed up with that BS Job or that BS person in your life? Not to bite Obama, but don't you think it's time for a change? The only person in charge of you right now is you... Hugs!

Atlanta Falcons Beat the Bears in a 1 Second Upset

By D. ORLANDO LEDBETTER The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Sunday, October 12, 2008 While the game-winning kick was still sailing through the air, Falcons long snapper Michael Schneck and lineman Jonathan Babineaux were sprinting downfield. They were in a foot race for the souvenir. After Jason Elam’s 48-yard field goal went through the uprights, Babineaux picked it up and raced back up field with the ball in hand. Elam was being mobbed by holder Michael Koenen and several other teammates, as the Falcons had pulled off a heart-stopping 22-20 victory over Chicago Bears Sunday. “I’ve been in some wild games, but this one trumps them all,” said rookie quarterback Matt Ryan, who had his first career 300-yard passing game. The Falcons improved to 4-2 and continued their march through the NFC North as they also have victories over Green Bay and Detroit. They play Minnesota later this season. The Bears dropped to 3-3. “This is one of the most exciting games I have ever seen,” Falcons coach Mike Smith said. “I haven’t been in a game that finished quite like this. There were a lot of ebbs and flows in terms of emotions for everybody out there.” The Falcons had dominated the Bears the entire day, but their inability to score touchdowns, instead settling for field goals, nearly came back to haunt them. Leading 19-13, Elam missed a 33-yard field goal with 2:46 left to play. Despite being outplayed, the Bears had life. They had the ball on their 28-yard line and marched right down the field to take a 20-19 lead after wide receiver Rashied Davis caught a 17-yard touchdown pass from Kyle Orton with 11 seconds to play. It was their first lead of the day and it looked like a deal sealer. “It looked bleak there for a minute,” Smith said. “It really did.” After giving up an 85-yard kickoff return to Jerious Norwood on the previous kickoff, the Bears decided to kick it low and short. Wide receiver Harry Douglas scooped up the kick and returned it 10 yards to the Falcons 44-yard line before sliding down in order to save some precious seconds on the clock. The Bears loaded up all day to stop running back Michael Turner, daring Ryan to beat them. Well, Ryan did and his last dagger was his best. With six seconds remaining, wide receiver Michael Jenkins ran a deep corner route. He started it inside and then broke back out to the sideline. The ball was there waiting for Jenkins, who tapped down his two feet and got out of bounds with one second to burn. “[Ryan] pretty much put it where I couldn’t miss it,” Jenkins said. The 26-yard gain, set the stage for Elam’s redemption kick, that had room to spare. “I’m really happy that one went through,” Elam said. Ryan didn’t want to look at the kick as players were congratulating him about the pass to Jenkins. “I was crossing my fingers, doing everything superstitious that you can do,” Ryan said. Before Jenkins’ catch, Elam was dejected on the sidelines. He thought his missed 33-yarder may have cost the Falcons the game. He quickly forgot about that blunder when Jenkins came down with the ball. “Michael actually made the catch and I saw two seconds on the clock,” said Elam, who has made 16th game-winning kick in the last two minutes or in overtime of a game. “You just go on the field and try to make it just like any other kick. It’s like a golf swing.” Elam didn’t dwell on the previous miss. “Things don’t always go the way that you want them too,” said Elam, who had made 30 consecutive field goals before that miss. “You just don’t want to have the previous play affect you in any way. So you just try to concentrate on your swing and trust it.” He trusted his swing and a big party broke out on the field. Turner, who entered the game as the league’s leading rusher, was held to 54 yards rushing on 25 carries. The Falcons top weapon was taken away. “That’s going to happen sometimes when you play against a very good defense like the Chicago Bears,” Ryan said. “I think their front seven is as good as anybody in the league.” With Bears concentrating on Turner, Roddy White, Harry Douglas and Brian Finneran worked their way open for Ryan’s passes. Ryan completed 22-of-30 passes for 301 yards and one touchdown. He had a quarterback rating of 116.1. “Matt has got ‘it’ ” Smith said. “We say that he’s got ‘it.’ We don’t know what ‘it’ is, but he’s got ‘it.’ “ This type of clutch come-from-behind victory is going to give Ryan more cache in the locker room. “The team has really taken to Matt,” Smith said. “He knows how to be a leader. He was an outstanding leader in college. “To go out and operate the way he did against a very fine Chicago defense was a part of his maturation process. I think it’s been accelerated through these first six weeks more than we anticipated.”

Necole Bitchie From Struggle to Glory

Yeah yeah I already know someone will have something stupid to say so let me get my shut the HELL UP... out the way right now!!! LOL Real talk big up's to my girl Necole Bitchie she has shown a lot of love to Exclusive Photography and I am very grateful for all the links herself and my boy Rahiem Shabbazz have sent me Rasha Ent in the building they know what it is...

Just check out this video for me cause we all have a story... and greatness is not given - it's earned. And nothing good happens with out a process follow me...
People see a person and are like "wow" how did they get that or how come they are doing so well at this? What makes them so special? You may as well put that haterade down and understand that a person is doing well because they are focused on what God called them too do, so that means they are not worried about you or what you have to say about what they are and are not doing. we get it in over here

"And This is God business"

Real talk most who are doing well at something in life is because they have worked hard and been at there goals and ambitions in life ten toes down for years.
With sacrifices like this, the average person can't imagine or endure what it takes to climb that mountian nor would they have the will power too. When a person has a vision others may not be able to see it. Well that's all good because sometimes a vision is between you and God.

And yes some times we have to lose something in order to win something. With that said blog on babe and keep doing your thing. Big up's to Rahiem cause this cat was with me when I was getting kicked out of clubs for telling the promoters I was the event photographer with that $19.99 Walmart camera. We have come a long way hommie nothing but them big boi joints now $1,000 and up camera's and video, the ones we use to read about are in our hands now. "Thank God". With that said never give up always strive for the very best in life anything less is unacceptable.

Sean John, Macy's, & Lenox Get Your Credit Cards Out The Holiday is COMING

When Sean “Diddy” Combs debuted his Sean John clothing line during the spring 1999 fashion season, the goal was to bridge the gap between high-end clothing and clothing with an urban sensibility. A decade later, with a boutique on Fifth Avenue, a prestigious fashion award and an ever-growing product line, Combs considers the gap officially bridged.

“Because people knew that I was a hip-hop artist and I owned the brand, they thought the brand was going to just embody the stereotype of what they think hip-hop is, just baggy jeans and oversized T-shirts. It was important to me to push the limits and push the boundaries,” Combs, founder of Bad Boy Entertainment, said Wednesday from New York.

Combs will be in Atlanta this evening at Macy’s Lenox Square to celebrate 10 years of his Sean John Collection. The event includes a runway show of more than 40 looks featuring men’s sportswear, boy’s apparel and outerwear for women.

Combs said he first learned the importance of style as a 5-year-old on Easter Sunday when he wore a white three-piece suit made by his seamstress grandmother that garnered compliments from churchgoers. He later drew on that early sartorial success merging his personal style into the Sean John Collection. With designer Ralph Lauren as his inspiration, Combs plotted to build a quality lifestyle brand that always remained loyal to its customers.

His vision was legitimized in 2004 when he won the Council of Fashion Designers of America’s Menswear Designer of the Year award, an honor he shares with designers such as Marc Jacobs and, of course, Lauren.

Today, the Sean John brand includes suits, knitwear, bottoms, shirts, ties, hats and more for men and boys. Last fall, the company launched a women’s collection that currently focuses on outerwear. There is also a fragrance line, eyewear and in the future, Combs said, furniture.

And just as his style has evolved over the years, so he says, has Sean John.

“My goal for the company has always been to be a leader in fashion and to evolve. … I don’t want to be the brand that is always chasing the trends.”

Tyler Perry Brings Hollywood To Southwest Atlanta

Technically, Atlanta director Tyler Perry had the evening off Saturday night as he introduced thousands of formally attired guests to the new 30-acre Tyler Perry Studios facility in southwest Atlanta. But from the grand opening fireworks to the strains of “Amazing Grace,” the director’s trademark flourishes were everywhere as Hollywood legends Sidney Poitier, Cicely Tyson, Ruby Dee and Louis Gossett Jr. gathered with Oprah Winfrey, Hank and Billye Aaron, Andrew and Carolyn Young, Will Smith, Barry Bonds and others to celebrate the first major television and movie studio owned and run by an African-American film producer. “I never dreamed I would witness this in my lifetime,” Tyson, an Oscar nominee for “Sounder”, reflected on the red carpet. “What I’ve been able to achieve in my career is minuscule in comparison to this.” Posing for pictures on the red carpet with the studio’s owner, Oscar-winner Poitier told the crowd: “I’ve spent 56 years in this business, and tonight is the reward. To see the people who have followed me and to see the success of the extent of this man is a real gift.” Inside, Perry had a surprise waiting for Poitier, Tyson and Dee. On the movie lot’s Main Street, just past East 34th Street and the Luminesce Light and Lamp Shop, banners unfurled down the fake brownstones to reveal the Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee Stage Three, the Cicely Tyson Stage Two and the Sidney Poitier Stage One. In front of a cheering crowd, Poitier was overcome with emotion as his likeness unspooled in front of him. He majestically pointed his index finger at the applauding crowd and smashed a bottle of bubbly on the wall to christen it. Champagne sparkled on his black tuxedo jacket as he wiped the tears from his eyes with a handkerchief. Across the way, a large pond was lit in gold light as a screen appeared in the water to reveal a film hosted by Perry, explaining how he found the abandoned former airline reservations center two years ago. “I looked at the abandoned buildings and I thought, ‘There’s no way,’ ” Perry said on the film. “Then I saw what I thought was debris on the front gates. I looked closer and realized someone had taped Bible Scriptures on the gate. Then I knew. I jumped in full steam with no fear. Nothing but the grace of God has brought me to this place.” A singer emerged from a stage on the water to perform “The Impossible Dream” as fireworks blazed overhead. Tears streamed down the faces of the attendees as waiters quietly offered tissues in red velvet boxes. Both former Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young and former Brave and home run king Henry Aaron expressed how thrilled they were that Perry chose an often neglected section of the city for the multi-million dollar facility. “It’s an absolute blessing for Atlanta,” Young said. Added Aaron: “It’s wonderful to see him giving back to this neighborhood. Even when the city hosted the Olympics, this area never received this kind of assistance.” Outside the studios and down the street, though, about a dozen protesters wearing Writers Guild of America T-shirts, were chanting “Tyler Perry has no shame.” Organizer Teri Brown-Jackson was protesting the alleged firing of four Guild writers who had worked on episodes of Perry’s TBS sitcom of Tyler Perry’s “House of Payne” after negotiations for a contract broke down. “He said he was going to work out details with us. Then, all of a sudden, his executive producers tell us that they don’t like the show and they want to go in a different direction. We’ve written 17 of the 25 episodes this season. And with nine episodes left, they fired all of us,” Brown-Jackson said. A Perry spokesman previously said four of the show’s seven writers were let go. The writers were pushing the idea of unionizing writers so they could get health and pension benefits. Brown-Jackson said she worked on the show three years without those benefits. “Our concern is even if he hires some other Atlanta writers. It’s still going to be a nonunion show. We’re working for the good of all his Atlanta writers from here to come. He’s made over $3 million and we can’t get health care,” Brown-Jackson said.
