6) God Gives the Vision
B: Tell us about Sky Trues Custom Eyewear.
George: I can image things, when that happens over and over again I gravitate to the idea. I wanted to create something that was unique, it’s All God, he gave me the vision. I started doodling on glasses. But people weren’t to excited about it.
B: Why do you thing people weren’t excited about your vision?
George: Sometime in our community if something's different people will say, why you doing that painting man, nobody’s going to wear those they look like clown glasses. People saying I can’t makes me go. But it’s my vision is to create a brand that was FLY, COOL, that’s DIFFERENT. (Sky Trues Custom Eyewear). Now two years later full fledge over 5000 sold, with 30 celebrities wearing my brand. Started out at $40 now the go upwards to $350. Celebrities wearing Sky Trues George Clinton, Waka Floca, Big Sean, Atlanta Housewives, Love N Hip Hop girls and more.
B: What did you do before this?
George: I was an entertainer, Hip Hop Artist put a couple of projects out that did extremely well,.Tpane, Rick Ross, and it goes on. & on,
B: Are you still producing music?
George: Yes, I’m working on a project now, it should be released in march.
B: Coming from the Northside of Houston what would you tell kids today?
George: You’ve got to want it, it can’t be something that you say you’re going to do. If you want to be a basketball player and get into the league certain things you gotta do. I’ll it like this you have want to succeed and much as you want to breath. Talent is only half of it you have to have work ethics walk in your own destiny, be in command of your Dreams.
B: Ferrell, I know that you are to owner of Ferrell’s Photography and that you’ve photographed countless Celebrities, what else are you currently working on?
Ferrell: In working on the Freedman’s Project which is due to be released Feb, 2016,
B: Tell us, What’s the Freedoms Project?
Ferrell: I wanted to preserve the history of Freedman’s Town which no longer exist, through the Gift of Photography, which I consider to be my God Given Gift. I used actors to recreated what it was like in Freedman’s Town which is also known as 4th Ward. This is my contribution to history for the children who come after us. They can go back and find out about the history and culture. If we know where we come from it makes us stand stronger.
Basically, I’ve brought the past into the present. Modern day elements with the attire of the past. This all stems from wanting to make a difference in the world, Photography is the base, but preserving history especially for African Americans in the City of Houston is what I’m passionate about.
B: You’re also a Talk Show Host?
Ferrell: Yes, The Ferrell Phelps Show (Cable & YouTube) I use it to make a difference, this is our 3rd year. I like to share triumphant stories, expose local artist you name we’ll have it on the show.
Ferrell has also author the book “In My Lifetime” about President Obama which sits in the White House

to
Lose Weight
Without
the Word Diet
If you buy into all of the New Year’s health
memes on Pinterest, you already know
that weight loss is 70-percent diet and only
30-percent exercise. And although I’m a
huge proponent of the fact that daily physi-
cal activity is a good thing, it’s less about
losing weight and more for (me personally)
about being in a better mood, getting bet-
ter sleep, having extra energy, etc. In the
end, the most important factor in losing
weight is diet, or rather, how
many calories we consume. According to
doctors form at Washington University’s
School of Medicine, “Decreasing food in-
take is much more effective than increas-
ing physical activity to achieve weight
loss.”
However, cutting calories to lose weight
doesn’t have to be about restriction of
food. In fact, healthy weight loss can be
achieved without the word diet even com-
ing into the picture…
Why? Because veggies and fruits are
typically low calorie, high in fiber, and
high in water content, which in the end,
fills you up while having you consume
less overall.
1. Load Up on Extra Veggies-Bulking your meals up with extra veggies ra-
ther than fats and starches can fill you up and
keep you satisfied until your next meal. For
instance, with your next stir fry or pasta, try
cutting the noodles or
rice in half and add-
ing double
the vegetables.
Doctors will recom-
mend eating more fruits and veggies as a
method for shedding excess pounds.
2. Cozy Up with Tea Oftentimes we eat when we’re bored or
nervous when we’re not even hungry.
Add some
cozy (zero
calorie) com-
fort to your
day or even-
ing with a
steaming mug of your favorite green or
herbal brew. Not only do many studies
link sipping on green tea with a tempo-
rary boost in metabolism, green tea is
rich in catechins, a type of photochemi-
cal, linked to metabolic boost.
Plus, sipping on plain herbal or green
tea will ensure your beverage of choice
is zero calorie (if you don’t add cream
or sugar). Just be sure to stick with an
3. Soup it Up Do you like a side with your lunch or a
starter for dinner. Rather than bread or
pasta,
try a
side or
starter
of
soup…
or
make a big, comforting bowl of broth
based soup your main entree. The key
is to stick with broth based (veggie or
chicken) versus cream based soups
(made with fatty butter or cream).
4. Dine at Home
If you’ve heard it once, you’ve heard it a
thousand times: if you want to consumer
fewer calories prepare the bulk of your
meals at home. Preparing your own
meals puts you in control of the ingredi-
ents within, according to a survey
from Consumer Reports.
The poll linked those who dined at home
the majority of the week (at least 5 days
per week)
with more suc-
cessful weight
loss and weight
maintenance. In
fact, you can make meal prep a
breeze by pre-cooking lean protein
(i.e., chicken or fish), dried beans, rice,
quinoa, and using frozen veggies for
quick, no-fuss meals at home.
5. Eat With a Timer No, I’m not referring to military-style
food fest, rather I’m talking about train-
ing your body to consume food more
slowly with the aid of a timer or stop
watch. Many nutritionists tell us, after
all, that the root of indigestion and
heartburn comes from shoveling food
down to quickly.
Alternatively, savoring your meals more
slowly can help you enjoy the meal
more while also helping you consume
smaller portions. So try it; set a timer for
20-minutes and stretch out your meal
really tasting and chewing each bite
thoroughly. You’ll soon notice with long-
er meals comes sooner satiation
(because the brain has time to register
that it’s full).
6. Yoga State of Mind and Body Part of losing weight and feeling great
has to do with a positive state of mind.
And the Journal of the American Dietet-
ic Association credits yoga to a better
mind-body contented-
ness. The research
indicates that folks
who maintain a regu-
lar yoga practice tend to weight signifi-
cantly less than those who don’t do
yoga.
7. Stick with Water It’s an understatement to say that the calo-
ries in beverages can really add up. If you
like to crack a soda, sports drink, or alco-
holic beverage with your meals, chances
are you’re drinking down a lot of excess
calories, and wast-
ing it on fluids.
Instead, keep
those calories in
check by swapping
a sugary soda or
cocktail with water or sparking soda with
no sugar added. If you can’t stand the
thought of drinking boring old water, add
some flavor with a slice of cucumber and a
slice of lemon, lime, or orange to give it
some flavor.
8. Set Your Alarm to Snooze While eating in bed can lead to mindless
snacking (and too many crumbs in the
sheets), researchers from the University of
Michigan say that catching an extra hour of
shut-eye nightly can lead to significant
weight loss…of almost
15-pounds annually.
The Michigan study rea-
sons that an extra hour
of sleep equals one less
hour of idleness, which
is most likely used for snacking through an-
other television episode on Netflix. Instead,
you can cut your daily calories by about 6-
percent with one added hour of zzzzzz’s.
Plus, we all know that lack of sleep leads to
lack of energy and tendency to binge on
empty carbs, fats, and refined sugars.
So what does downward dog have to do with
weight loss? Not only does yoga get you mov-
ing, a better overall self-awareness of you
body and emotions will help you develop a
mindful approach to eating. Hence, you’ll real-
ize sooner that you’re full and resist the urge to
keep eating.

What Real Men Want? Real Women!
“In a world where you can be anything…
Be Yourself !”
their life partner “forget” to ask or require this boundary. If you are a monogamous per-
son, best you require the same from your partner. In this list you also want to put things
like no sociopaths, liars, issues that are not predictive of a long lasting relationship.
Preferences include sports, classical music, reading, working out, theater, museums,
travel etc. You may not match up in preferences and over time you may join your partner
in his/her preferences because you love being together. I don’t call preferences deal
breakers, and I do have concerns that if you don’t get the must/have, must not have list
correct you could run into deal breakers.
3. Confidence and Clarity
Being in the world exuding confidence and clarity attracts confidence and clarity (It may
also attract those who want it but don’t have it so take note. You will see this and proba-
bly need to move on). Always keep your life going while in the dating game. Do not put it
on hold! If you have been in therapy, attended workshops, asked the serious questions

Start your list: must have, must not have, and preferences.
Somewhere in the must have/must not have, you might want to put the “really single”
thing. So many people who are seriously interested in finding their life partner “forget” to
ask or require this boundary. If you are a monogamous person, best you require the
same from your partner. In this list you also want to put things like no sociopaths, liars,
issues that are not predictive of a long lasting relationship.
Preferences include sports, classical music, reading, working out, theater, museums,
travel etc. You may not match up in preferences and over time you may join your partner
in his/her preferences because you love being together. I don’t call preferences deal
breakers, and I do have concerns that if you don’t get the must/have, must not have list
correct you could run into deal breakers.
3. Confidence and Clarity
Being in the world exuding confidence and clarity attracts confidence and clarity (It may
also attract those who want it but don’t have it so take note. You will see this and proba-
bly need to move on). Always keep your life going while in the dating game. Do not put it
on hold! If you have been in therapy, attended workshops, asked the serious questions
and taken the time to figure out who you are, where you are going and then who will go
on the journey with you the confidence and clarity will be nice by products of this work!
4. Drive or Be Driven
In the beginning of a relationship, I believe you should decide if you want to be the male/
driving energy or female/being driven energy. If you want to drive, you begin the invites,
get numbers, call, email, and let someone know you are interested. If you want to be driv-
en, you encourage, are warm and inviting, respond, and let the driver know you are interested.
Clarity is so valuable here. Let someone know who you are and where you are going in
life! Once you are a couple, the drive or be driven issue transforms into something quite differ-
ent.
5. Couple vs Single
We are stronger as a couple than either is as an individual. She/He makes me want to be a
better person. He/she is under my skin. We think about each other all of the time. We have
differences and we can respectfully work through them. We love the essence of each other.
Our worlds are important to both of us. These are the types of comments that suggest you
may have found a good partner!
Preparing yourself always makes the road easier. Take the time to do this!

By now, you’ve have heard all the raves about keratin smoothing treatments. That promise smooth, silky, strong, softer, more manageable, frizz free hair. I can tell you from experience personally and professionally … its true! So here is the “Hairstory” of keratin.
Keratin treatments started with the often imitated but who wants to duplicate it, Brazilian straightening system. Which produced
beautiful results but had more than 2% formaldehyde, a known carcinogen…booo , therefore deemed unsafe. But in typical American fashion
we created a dizzying array of treatments, products and services for your consumable pleasure. Keratin treatments perform well across ethnicities and
hair types. Kinky or coarse to straight or fine. Keratin also works wonders on chemically crippled (my own term) hair, like colored, permed, over processed or re-
laxed hair. Keratins, prevent breakage, reduces frizz, increases body and shine, can repair damage, reduces curl and even straighten. Hair dry’s faster, holds
curl better, is stronger and lasts longer than conventional straighteners… whew… that’s a lot for one product.
So here’s how it works. Keratin treatments deposit liquid keratin along with a preservative into the hair as well as coats the hair. Hair is made of keratin so it re-
sponds very well. The solution is left on to soften and absorb into the hair shaft, then dried into the hair via blow dryer which begins the sealing process. Lastly a
flat iron smooths and seals the cuticle with a kiss of heat. Some relatively new treatment boast hair can be styled or shampooed immediately, before you leave
the salon, others need 48 to 72 hours to cure. My preference is those that cure …lasts longer. Ooh la la … but wait! There’s more… the B—side
But before you do a happy dance or whip your hair back and forth, there are cautions to consider. Choosing an appropriate service and product can be tricky.
Knowledge is power .
All in all, Keratin treatment are well suited for most everyone lasting anywhere from 8 weeks to 6 months depending on product and maintenance. A really nice
feature ,it gradually washes out so no unseemly demarcation lines. Great tool in avoiding the big chop when transitioning out of relaxer. Important to the longevi-
ty of the treatment, using the stylists recommended products. Prices vary from $150 to $600.
So Go Ahead Take The Plunge, and Emerge With Luscious Locks!

If I could build the perfect man, He'd be God fearing, strong, determined, ambitious and funny (but not funnier than me). He'd be loving like Christ. He'd be wise like Solomon. He'd be my very own Robin Hood, sacrificial and giving. He'd love his family. He'd work hard. He'd pray for me. He'd protect me. He'd provide for me. He'd honor me. He'd respect me. He'd encourage me. And He'd love me, Even when I get on his nerves.

If I could build the perfect man, He'd Be You! So as we embark on this new, never ending chapter together, this love triangle between you, myself and God, I vow to follow you wherever you lead because I know who guides you. My prayer for us is that we look forward to each day together with the same excitement and anticipation as we have this very moment. No matter what may come our way, I know God made you especially for me and I can't wait to spend forever honoring God with you.
I Love You!
