Megafest had two weeks of film screenings, red carpets,
films by CSN students, seminars and a life panel at the Palms Hotel in Las
Vegas July 31-August 3, 2019. Two of the Life Council Panelists were Maggie
Cook who shared her story about being born and raised in a Mexican Orphanage to
becoming a millionaire and then a motivational speaker. She shared her story
from her heart and was admired by everyone. Dr. Robert Goldman, a medical
doctor and International Martial Artist and partner to Arnold Schwarzenegger
shared his advice and knowledge in how to succeed in life. Dr. Goldman donates
80% of his time around the world doing charitable work. He is a wonderful human
being who definitely cares about people. He will once again host the Icon
Awards at the Black Tie Award Dinner. <o:p></o:p></div>

of <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Dancing with the Stars</b> had a
wonderful cast of stars and professional dancers. A select group of us gathered
once again at the home of Cindy Doumani to watch the season unfold and select
the Mirror Ball Champion. The winners were <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Jordan
Fisher and Pro Lindsey</b> <b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;">Arnold</b>
and I was excited as they were my pick, making this the fourth winners that I
picked. Winners received a bottle of Champagne to celebrate the win. The judges
were entertaining as usual, Len Goodman, Bruno Tonioli and Carrie Ann Inaba.
Guest judges appear during some episodes and my favorite is Julianne Hough who
I must say is fabulous. </span></div>

has a new project in the works, a new CTM T.V. series <b>“Still the King”.</b> He plays a washed up country star and he has a
new album “Cyrus” which everyone is looking forward to. I have been a fan since
the 90’s and I can still remember when he made Achy Breaky Heart famous. He was
like another Elvis and every loved him. It was very exciting to see Billy Ray a
few months ago at the Red Rock Hotel Casino and hear him play his guitar and
hear his wonderful voice. He writes the music and he lives the music. He is
still the handsome man as I remembered him to be. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">One of the
last films I saw was <b>The Godfather</b>,
which was a special 45<sup>th</sup> Anniversary Event about a New York Mafia
family, starring <b>Marlon Brando</b> as
Don Corleone. The film was nominated for seven Academy Award nominations and
won three, including Best Picture of 1972 and Best Actor for Marlon Brando. The
film was directed by Francis Ford Coppola who went on to make Godfather 11 and
Godfather 111. The Godfather is one of the greatest films in world cinema. I
have seen this movie many times on a small TV but it was awesome to see it on
the big screen. I love this movie and I would watch it over and over again.</span></div>

outstanding film <b>“I Am Still Here”</b>
is a story of an African American girl who is abducted and forced into
prostitution at the age of 10 and held as a sex slave for seven years. Writer,
director and producer <b>Mischa Marcus</b>

for sex slavery. It is a story told with brutal honesty to create awareness.
People are unaware of this problem and through awareness there will be change
and action. This film helps to educate the public on an uncomfortable subject
matter but this ugly reality must be told. Thisfilm has been shown in over 28

over 100 food producers in the nation met at the Gold Coast Hotel Casino in Las

meeting many of them and talking about their products. There were many scheduled speakers and one of
my favorite speakers there was <b>Karen

twin sister Aries was born on October 29, 1941 in Nassau to Josephine Brice
Johnson & Pallaman Stevie Johnson. King said he always felt loved and
protected by his parents who encouraged him in his love for music, singing and
playing drums. He practiced drumming on wood and boxes and any flat surface
until he made his first bongo drums from two coffee cans. His book “My Life My
Loves” is a beautiful story of how his dreams have come true and having the
love of so many people. It is the first of many other books that document his
start in life as a jockey, a bongo master, actor, singer and his first world
tour with Neil Diamond in 1976.</span></span></div>

purchased to hold his collections. He started collecting butterflies at the age
