  Barbara La Marr (July 28, 1896 – January 30, 1926) La Marr was an actress and known as "The Girl Who Is Too Beautiful". She actually began working as a screenwriter, but made her on camera debut with Douglas Fairbanks in The Nut (1921), and quickly became a star with her beauty and talent. Although her film career flourished, she also embraced the fast-paced Hollywood nightlife, remarking in an interview that she slept no more than two hours a night. La Marr began abusing drugs and alcohol and reportedly developed a cocaine and heroin habit. Her lifestyle eventually began to affect her career and she was dropped by M-G-M. The drug and alcohol use began to take its toll, and she developed nephritis and tuberculosis, which ultimately ended her life at age 29. Barbara La Marr is interred at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

Helen of Troy.....The Face That Launched a Thousand Ships . In Greek mythology, Helen of Troy is a character in Homer's epic poem, the Iliad. ... However, there is no solid evidence to suggest that Helen was a real person. The first written record of Helen is in the Iliad but the origins of the myth that surrounds her dates back to the Bronze Age. Helen of Troy almost certainly never existed as a historical figure. The Iliad and the Odyssey were probably mostly composed during the early seventh century BC, but the events they describe are set in the twelfth century BC, roughly five hundred years earlier. We have solid archaeological evidence that Troy was indeed a real city, but nothing to support the historicity of the Trojan War, nor do we have any evidence to support the existence of any of the individual characters in the poems. The characters in the Iliad and the Odyssey and in later Greek legends about the war, are all almost certainly fictional, including Helen. The who...

27 SPIRITUAL PARTNERSHIP This card indicates a time when a significant spiritual relationship is about to be forged. Perhaps it comes in the form of a friendship between like-minded souls on a similar journey toward enlightenment.

The saying goes, "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear," and when yours arrives, he or she will assist you in expanding your spiritual growth.

24 april 1112 - Dood van graaf D. Hendrik van Portugal Het zou naar alle waarschijnlijkheid kunnen worden gezegd dat de Graaf van Portucale, D. Henrique, was de grootvader van Portugal. Dom Henrique, vader van El-Rei Dom Afonso I Henriques, was de vierde. de zoon van Henrique de Bourgondië, dus behorend tot de hertogelijke familie van Bourgondië, en daarmee een achterkleinzoon van Robert I van Frankrijk en achterkleinzoon van de abt S. Hugo de Cluny, en broer van ook hertogen Odo I en Hugo I. D. Henrique, niet eerstgeboren, maakte het leven als kruisvaarder, werd aangetrokken door de gebieden met het grootste gevaar en vanaf hier kun je zijn komst naar het Iberisch schiereiland begrijpen, waar de heroverwinning van de Moren riskanter was. Portucale stond onder Saracaanse overheersing sinds 711 en in 868 heroverde de Galicische Vimara Peres, vazal van de Leeuwenkoning, Galicië en Asturië de regio tussen Douro en Minho, inclusief Portucale, en stichtte het eerste graafschap Portucale, zo...

  Samuel Goldwyn, born Szmuel Gelbfisz (August 17, 1879 – January 31, 1974) He was most well known for being the founding contributor and executive of several motion picture studios in Hollywood. His awards include the 1973 Golden Globe Cecil B. DeMille Award, the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award in 1947, and the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in 1958. For 35 years, Goldwyn built a reputation in filmmaking and developed an eye for finding the talent for making films. William Wyler directed many of his most celebrated productions, and he hired writers such as Ben Hecht, Sidney Howard, Dorothy Parker, and Lillian Hellman. During that time, Goldwyn made numerous films and reigned as the most successful independent producer in the US. Many of his films were forgettable; his collaboration with John Ford, however, resulted in Best Picture Oscar nomination for Arrowsmith (1931). William Wyler was responsible for most of Goldwyn's highly lauded films, with Best Picture Oscar nominations...

I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you. ~Frida Kahlo (Book: The Diary of Frida Kahlo https://amzn.to/424dnTt )

Zwaarden aas en de zegewagen! De naakte waarheid. Het kan lastig zijn om jouw waarheid onder ogen te zien. Om te voelen dat je beslissingen in het verleden hebt gemaakt die jou niet de liefdevolle ervaringen hebben gebracht waar je op hoopte. Je bent je bewust dat je deze keuzes gemaakt hebt vanuit afhankelijkheid geleerd in je jeugd. Nu kom je erachter dat jij een eigen waarheid hebt. Dat jij je eigen leven kunt sturen. En dat je aan niemand verantwoording hoeft af te leggen. Neem de touwtjes van je eigen leven in handen en stuur die richting uit waar jij blij van wordt. ----------------------- Ace of swords and the chariot! The naked truth. It can be difficult to clearly see your truth. To feel that the descisions that you made in the past, did not bring you the loving experience you were hoping for. You are aware that the choices you made were from co-dependancy which you have learned in your upbringin. Now you see that you have your own truth. That you can direct your own life. And...

Als het leven niet verandert... Verander de manier waarop je naar dingen kijkt. Cartoonist: Victor Solís

Bekers vier en zwaarden tien. Bevrijd je gedachten. De gedachten dat anderen je pijn willen doen is een ervaring uit je verleden. Je beseft je dat deze ervaringen tot stand gekomen zijn vanuit jouw emotionele blokkades. Jij hebt pijn ervaren omdat het iets in jou triggerde. Dit heeft te maken met afhankelijk zijn van anderen. Bevrijd je van de behoefte om goed te doen voor anderen, van de goedkeuring van anderen en van het aardig gevonden willen worden door anderen. Zet jezelf voorop in jouw leven. Hou van jezelf, geniet van de stappen die je zet en ben blij met wie je bent. --------------------- Four of cups and ten of swords! Free your thoughts. The thoughts that other are trying to hurt you comes from an experience from your past. You realise that these experiences were surfaced because of you emotional blockages.

  Joseph Frank "Buster" Keaton (October 4, 1895 – February 1, 1966) He was an actor, comedian, film director, producer, screenwriter, and stunt performer. Keaton was best known for his silent films, in which his trademark was physical comedy with a consistently stoic, deadpan expression, earning him the nickname "The Great Stone Face". Critic Roger Ebert wrote of Keaton's "extraordinary period from 1920 to 1929, [when] he worked without interruption on a series of films that make him, arguably, the greatest actor–director in the history of the movies". His career declined afterward with a dispiriting loss of his artistic independence when he was hired by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and he descended into alcoholism, ruining his family life. He recovered in the 1940s, remarried, and revived his career to a degree as an honored comic performer for the rest of his life, earning an Academy Honorary Award. Many of Keaton's films from the 1920s, such as Sherlock ...

"Waar je ook gaat, licht zonnen, glimlach sterren, verspreid liefde, laat het goede parfum van je ziel achter. Waar je ook gaat, zaai schoonheid, speel vrij, knuffel groot, zing de liedjes van je soundtrack. Waar je ook gaat, vergeef, ontthrone de wonden, genees de gewonden. Waar je ook gaat, vernieuw jezelf, wees lief, kijk vertraag naar de ogen die jouw richting uit stralen. Waar je ook gaat, neem je hart. Het is lichter ! "

Bekers aas en kracht! Overvloed aan zelfliefde. Je beseft je dat op het moment dat je iets belichaamt, dat je het dan pas kunt delen met anderen. Ook zo met onvoorwaardelijke liefde. Je hebt de kracht om je ego onder ogen te zien. Om je eigen rol in een situatie duidelijk te krijgen door je triggers aan te kijken. Onvoorwaardelijke liefde is ook de kracht hebben in het accepteren van alle kanten van jezelf. Liefde en angst, donker en licht, yin en yang. Vergeef jezelf voor alle keuzes die je in het verleden gemaakt hebt en die niet de positieve uitkomst hadden die je had gehoopt. Besef dat je zo gegroeid bent dat nu je keuzes gebaseerd zijn op liefde voor jezelf. Onvoorwaardelijke liefde. ---------------------- Ace of cups and strength! Abundance of self love.

  Hedda Hopper (May 2, 1885 – February 1, 1966) Hopper was an American actress and gossip columnist, notorious for feuding with her arch-rival Louella Parsons.

"De naakte mannen waren op het strand, de harige mannen zaten op de boog," is de zin die Eduardo Bueno gebruikt om de momenten te synthetiseren die voorafgaan aan de ontmoeting die begon wat we "Brazilië" noemen, wiens verhaal we in zeer kromme lijnen blijven schrijven. 523 jaar geleden, terwijl Indianen en Portugezen dansten op de stranden van Bahia (als pero Vaz de Caminha's prachtige kaarttelt), kon niemand zich voorstellen hoeveel bloed het witte zand van dat bijna-paradijs zou bevlekken, soms zo helse. Feit is dat deze vermeende "ontdekking" het resultaat was van een zeer dure commerciële expeditie, gefinancierd door sinistere Italiaanse investeerders, bewaterd met wijn, ingebed in vuil. Een spannend avontuur met echte mensen in de hoofdrol! Heel anders dan de overlast die ze je misschien op school hebben geleerd, waardoor mensen steeds verder weg van hun eigen geschiedenis worden geduwd. Kom reizen met Eduardo Bueno in de video 'DE ONTDEKING ...

Goedemorgen, Welke energie omringt ons momenteel?  Voor vandaag trok ik de ark, deze kaart herinnert er ons aan dat de engelen ons nooit in de steek laten. We krijgen leerscholen op ons pad en alles heeft een zin en een reden. Geef dus niet op want later zal alles duidelijk worden. Fijne dag gewenst Xxx

BACK TO BASICS Your psychic sense and higher awareness are founded on common sense, which begins with properly meeting your basic physical needs. As obvious as this sounds, it's easier said than done for most people, as they tend to live in their heads and forget their bodies. It you neglect your basic needs, your higher awareness will diminish, leaving you to operate on adrenaline and anxiety. In such a state, you miss the finer, more subtle psychic vibrations and lose your way. Self-love and self-care are nonnegotiable commitments for the six-sensory soul. If you 've drawn this card, it's time for you to raise the bar on self-awareness. Assess your basic habits: Are you taking loving care of your body without guilt? Are you getting enough sleep, drinking enough water, eating healthy and lovingly prepared food, and getting adequate exercise? If not, you're paying a high price for your neglect and sabotaging your higher awareness. Your body is your greatest psychic...

  Heather O'Rourke (December 27, 1975 – February 1, 1988) She was discovered by director Steven Spielberg when she was visiting MGM's studios. Spielberg cast her as Carol Anne Freeling in the 1982 horror film Poltergeist, where she had the movie's most recognizable line: "They're here!" She reprised the role in the second and third installments. O'Rourke also had a recurring role on Happy Days from 1982 to 1983, and she made several television guest appearances. O'Rourke became ill in early 1987 and was misdiagnosed by doctors at Kaiser Permanente Hospital as having Crohn's disease. She was prescribed prednisone to treat the disease, which caused her cheeks to appear puffy and large. On January 31, 1988, O'Rourke suddenly became ill again, vomiting and unable to keep anything in her stomach. The next morning she collapsed while preparing to leave for the hospital and her stepfather called paramedics. O'Rourke suffered a cardiac arrest en ro...

A bit of a mystery surrounds this postcard. It's a portrait of a young Cheyenne boy, wearing a long feather headdress, breastplate, neckerchief, and shirt decorated with fringe. He holds a stick or possibly a wooden toy rifle. Printed on the postcard is "Young Indian boy, Montana - KFR," but Kenneth F. Roahen apparently did not take the photograph. Instead, the image is in the Richard Throssel Papers at the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming and is titled "A Cheyenne boy warrior." He was photographed between 1905 and1911.
