His performance piece, a re-enactment of a small monologue must have been quite impressive, because much to his surprise following his audition, he was approached by Alexandria Hoff, a local reporter from CBS Eyewitness News (KYW1060) on Channel 3 in Philadelphia, who had witnessed his performance. Ms. Hoff invited Quintero-Moore to play a small impromptu, unscripted acting role with her, and the ensuing scene that unfolded set him on the path to certain stardom. Moore and Hoff created their own dialogue, unrehearsed on live TV and despite having had no time to practice, Mr. Quintero-Moore showed the world his extraordinary range as an actor, and demonstrated his ability to improvise on the spot.

Cancer is no laughing matter but humor is healing and healthy.   Have you ever been in a tense or difficult situation when you suddenly burst into a fit of giggles? Or feel a release or rejuvenated after watching a side-splittingly funny movie?  It turns out there’s some scientific veracity behind the old adage “laughter is the best medicine.”  When you’re feeling down finding friends to laugh with can help your brain trigger its own laughter response and foster closeness, both of which contribute to your sense of well-being.

REPLAY Social Media has both positive and negative affects to teen's and tween's self-esteem and health and it is up to our future generations to not let it take over.  Social Media deprives teenagers of who they really are, but it is also up to teenagers to change their beliefs and what they are defined by.   Think about it, before social media took over the way we connect with one another, there was radio, books, magazines, television and movies and low self esteem was also a concern then when young kids didn’t see anyone who looked like themselves.   My special guest, Linda Kiedi, creator of Kiesse, LLC will talk about the incident that occurred before her daughter's fourth birthday and the inability to find diverse party supplies.

Topic: Perception & Law of Attraction law of attraction—a “universal,” perfect law that dictates, “like ALWAYS attracts like.” In other words, positive ALWAYS attracts positive and negative ALWAYS attracts negative. Perception - a result of PERCEIVING or OBESERVATION. Most people attempt to fulfill their goals, using the LAW OF ATTRACTION, are UNSUCCESSFUL.  UNIVERSAL LAW OF ATTRACTION, but no longer works without your help. Now instead of merely thinking about getting your goal, you are to visualize having already attained your goal. Bring the perfect future to the present. Live and feel as if your goal has been accomplished.

Blogs have become an integral part of the online culture.  Practically everyone reads blogs whether they’re "real news" news blogs, topic-based blogs related to a niche or hobby, or blogs simply written for entertainment, practically everybody you know has at least one favorite blog.   Bloggers or Influencers pour their hearts and souls into creating content that keeps their readers engaged and coming back for more.  Blogging wasn’t always as popular as it is now, and it seems as though everyone wants to be a blogger which is why I have added Blogging Consulting to the menu of offerings to ABlakeEnterprises. However, sometimes bloggers can experience "burnout" and find themselves staring at a blank computer screen not knowing what to post or even wanting to write a post, so what can we do to avoid this.   Listen in to this evening's Podcast as I discuss Blogger Burnout

With $1.4 trillion in spending power, they’re just entering their prime consumption years and because of this power, they are on every major brands’ radar.   However, because they are not consuming information in the same way as boomers and seniors with non stop commercials on television they aren't being bombarded with advertisements for medications, drugs and treatments for every ailment.

The numbers are even higher in African American and Hispanic communities, where nearly 40% of the children are overweight or obese. If we don't solve this problem, one third of all children born in 2000 or later will suffer from diabetes at some point in their lives. With the new administration’s budget proposal for 2018, ~aka~ the "skinny budget", schools are afraid that some of the cuts will include funding to programs that provided free breakfast and lunch to kids. Oftentimes, these meals are the only nutritious ones that they receive on a daily basis.  Now more than ever, we have to work together as a family sharing knowledge and expertise and not look to the government to keep us healthy and safe because that is not going to be the case at least not for the next 4 years.   Special guest is Queon Jackson : Summer J Pops - Delaware's Coolest Dessert!
