Life is unpredictable. In one moment you have it all, and in the next, everything turns upside down leaving you wonder how things can get a wrong turn in such a short time.
Dakota Nelson’s life changed in an instant after his loving wife passed away. He was left to take care of their seven children all by himself. The sad event happened earlier this year when the couple spent the day cleaning around the garage. Dakota went to the house to quickly grab something and when he returned he saw Ream lying on the floor. She was unconscious, her face was blue, and she wasn’t breathing.
He did all he could to try to save her, including CPR, but once the paramedics arrived at the scene they told them how her brain went without oxygen for around 20 minutes. She was taken to the hospital where she spent several weeks in coma, after which she left this world. What caused her dead is still a mystery.

Dakota found himself in a desperate situation. He knew he had to make sure he provides a nice life for his kids aged 1 through to 16. So, he started working three part-time jobs in order to be able to pay for the bills. He was torn between bunch of commitments and all the errands he had to run every day.
But this grieving widower and a single father never lost hope.

A random stranger stumbled upon the story of Dakota and decided to do something amazing. With Christmas just around the corner, his deed was a real holiday magic that will change this family’s life and will significantly ease the financial pressure Dakota was feeling.

We live in a world where people tend to lessen our value and make us feel worthless for the sake of reaching their personal goals. This sort of treatment that involves humiliation is also known as bullying.
Bullying can happen to everyone. It’s present in the everyday life of people, but I guess it mostly affects little children who are vulnerable and many times unable to take a stand and speak for themselves.
3-year-old Noah Gilbert is a sweet boy with a ginger hair. And although he used to love the way he looks, some rude people made fun of the color of his hair and that crushed his self-esteem. His mother is now trying to share Noah’s story and raise the voice against bullying.
The unpleasant incident took place while Noah and his mom Lauren boarded a bus. There, a group of teenagers started laughing because of Noah’s hair color and made some nasty comments that broke the boy’s heart.
Some of the gruesome words that spoke were, “I would hate my child to be ginger, I would kill it” and “all kids with ginger hair should go straight to social services.”
Although he’s just three years old, Noah could perfectly understand that they were speaking about him and he couldn’t understand why would someone say such bad words.
The boy got so upset that once he reached home, he started asking why he couldn’t have blonde hair like that of his brother.
His brother’s answer was a poignant one and that made Lauren write a Facebook post that vent viral in a blink of an eye.
She wrote: “He hasn’t stopped asking me why people don’t like his hair. He asked me if I could change it for him so people will like it. I can feel my heart breaking every time he asks me.
“It isn’t okay to bully somebody for their hair colour, not now. Not ever.”
People took their time to defend Noah saying he’s the cutest little boy out there and his ginger care makes him even more special.
“This has had such an effect on Noah, it’s just unfair,” Lauren continued. “I have naturally ginger hair too and I remember being bullied growing up, but not as young as three.”
Lauren wants the teens to apologize for their words. She even reached the principal of the school they attend.
She wants to raise awareness of the problem because this type of harassment takes part every single day and it makes little children question their value and their qualities. What’s most, the effects bullying has on children as well as adults can be long lasting and affect their self-confidence for life.
Stories of how huge names in the film industry found their place in Hollywood are one of my favorite because they remind us that these celebs that we all admire weren’t given everything on a silver platter. On the contrary, most of them struggled at the start of their careers, but it was their determination that helped them reach for the stars.
For actor Lorenzo Lamas, acting seemed to be written in the stars because both his mother and father were involved in the film industry. His mom, Arlene Dahl, an American actress of Norwegian descent was one of the last surviving stars from the Classical Hollywood cinema era. His father, Fernando Lamas, an Argentinian who worked as an actor and director and was also known for his turbulent love life was Lorenzo’s idol.
“I idolized my father, especially as a young boy. He was bigger than life. He commanded the room. He’d done everything, seen everything,” Lorenzo told Fox. “It’s pretty heady stuff to grow up with.”

After his parents divorced when he was just two, Lorenzo and his father eventually left California and moved to New York. At the time, his father married actress Esther Williams. One thing Lorenzo remembers from that period of his life is that when Esther’s children visited, he wasn’t allowed in the house.
“He was many things, but he was also fair, so if he wasn’t going to allow another man’s children in his house, then he couldn’t allow me in the house,” he said of his father.
“So my roommate was a Rolls Royce. I had a key that let me in the backdoor where there was a guest bathroom. But I came from military school, so living in a garage in Beverly Hills was plush to me. I had shared a urinal with 30 guys for the last four years. Looking back, I know that’s not normal. I know that I would never do that to my kids. I run my three teenage daughters around like a chauffeur.”

Lorenzo had his big breakthrough playing the role of Tom Chisum in the iconic film Grease. He played Sandy’s boyfriend, and that role, although rather small, secured him his place in Hollywood.
“I’m amazed by the longevity. It keeps finding new generations of people,” he told Studio 10 about Grease.
For the role, he had to dye his hair lighter because the producers didn’t see Sandy’s boyfriend as someone with dark hair, but that didn’t bother Lorenzo at all.
“I would have dyed it green, fuchsia, anything,” he told People.
What he loved most about his role was that he got the chance to work alongside Olivia Newton-Jonh, his childhood crash.
“I was 19. It was only the third thing I’ve ever done. And I was at the Paramount lot, meeting my childhood crush, Olivia Newton-John, and Mr. Saturday Night Fever, John Travolta. So I was kind of in a complete zombie state, to begin with,” Lorenzo recalled. “I couldn’t take my eyes off her,” he told Studio 10.

After Grease, Lorenzo landed the role of Lance Cumson on Falcon Crests where he starred alongside actress Jane Wyman. It was her who helped him get on track and take control of his life after he appeared high on set because of his addiction
“This is what we’re going to do. We’re going to take a 15-minute break. You’re going to memorize your lines. And you’re never going to come to work high again,” Lorenzo quoted Wyman saying.
After starring in whooping 228 episodes, what came next was the drama show Renegade which was also a huge success.
Lorenzo was married five times and has six children, with his last wife, actress Shawna Craig, being 30 years his junior. “It [complicated the family dynamic] initially,” Lorenzo told Entertainment Online in 2015. “Of course it would. My friends said, ‘What could you possibly have in common with a person that’s 30 years younger than you?’ I told them, ‘Everything.’”
The couple divorced in 2018.

Today, Lorenzo has put most of his time and energy working as a helicopter flight instructor and an airplane pilot. His charity organization Angel Flight provides free, medical-related air transport for people in need.
“Pilots like myself donate our planes and time to get people around the country for medical treatment,” he told Soap Opera Digest.
“I would fly people from their hometowns to the cities where their hospitals were located. I’ve also flown disabled kids to camp because riding in a car would be too uncomfortable for them, but the parents just couldn’t afford the [commercial] airfare.”
“There’s no way that you can avoid getting emotionally involved,” Lamas added. “There’s plenty of travel time for conversation, so you get interested in their lives, and you want to know all about them.”
With a career that has spanned 75 years across film, TV and the stage, Angela Lansbury is an award-winning actress who is stealing our hearts over and over again.
Earlier in October, the Murder, She Wrote star turned 96 and is still looking as incredibly beautiful as always.
Born Angela Brigid Lansbury on October 16, 1923, in London, England, she suffered a huge heartbreak when her father died. She was just nine years old at the time and the loss affected her childhood and life a great deal.
In an attempt to cope with her grief, young Angela found solace in performance, and that saved her. She would later describe it as a “defining moment of her life.”
“Nothing before or since has ever affected me so deeply,” she told Closer. “I became something of a dreamer, lost in my grief [and] much more interested in acting, following the example of my mother.”
“At the age of 11 or 12, I remember sitting on buses and trying to look interesting. Or I would get people’s attention by saying something kind of outlandish that simply sounded as if I knew something they didn’t know.
“[I was] taking on the emotional and mental aspects of somebody other than Brigid. So I was acting through a great deal of my life without even realizing that that’s what I was doing.”
Angela’s mom was a well-respected actress, so when the family was forced to leave England for America, she found herself working on Broadway. It’s safe to say that Angela inherited her mom’s acting talent and found her place under the Hollywood sky.
Angela had her big breakthrough acting alongside Ingrid Bergman in Gaslight. At the time, she had just turned 18.
“That was a thrilling experience, to work with Ingrid [Bergman], who was so kind. It was sort of a dream world,” she recalled.
“I was so young; I was really awed by what I was being asked to do. And when you’re challenged like that, you damn well do your best.”

After appearing in her first movie, she was nominated for best supporting actress for an Academy Award. She continued her career during the ’60s and ’70s and appeared in a number of television projects such as The King and I and Sweeney Todd. in 1945, Angela received her second Oscar nomination for her supporting performance in The Picture of Dorian Gray.
She won five Tony’s, six Golden Globes and one Oliver Award.
Besides all her legendary roles, she is probably best known for the series Murder, She Wrote.
Already a famous name in the industry back in 1983, Angela was offered two roles at the same time, that of writer Jessica Fletcher and another in a sitcom. Her manager was convinced she should accept the role in the sitcom, but she felt that playing the role of a widowed former school teacher turned successful mystery writer and amateur sleuth would be the right thing to do. Years later, her decision turned faithful.
For her role in Murder, She Wrote, Angela was nominated for Prime Time Emmy 12 times, but she didn’t win any.
“It pissed me off!” she told the Radio Times in 2017.
“Because I just didn’t add up at all in Hollywood. Everywhere else in the U.S., Murder, She Wrote was huge, but not in Hollywood — no, no, no, they didn’t want to know. I wasn’t upset… Well, I was upset, really. It rankled me. I can’t say it didn’t.”
Before she turned 94, Angela said, “You know, I don’t make movies anymore, but that’s okay. My voice is not my fortune, but certainly, my voice is the thing I’ve been able to keep going and even though I’m going to be 94 next month, I don’t feel anything like that.”
When it comes to her private life, Angela was married twice. In 1949, tied the knot with her second husband, British actor Peter Shaw, with whom she had two children, Anthony and Deirdre. The two were married for over five decades before Shaw passed away in 2003.
Their relationship resembled a fairy-tale.
“We had the perfect relationship,” she said of their marriage in 2014.
“Not many people can say that. He was everything to me: we were partners at work as well as husband and wife and lovers. I don’t know how we had such a long marriage, but the simple fact was that we were devoted to one another.”

Writing in the Belfast Telegraph, Angela looked back on her beautiful marriage and the wonderful years she got to spend with Peter.
“I had a wonderfully happy marriage to Peter. We were both doers, we had the same sort of energy. We did everything for the family, and that was our mutual thrust at all times.
“We had our moments when we could have hit each other out of the ballpark, but it didn’t allow us to think that we couldn’t make it through.”
These days, she spends her time with her children and grandchildren. “As she’s getting older, she wants to be with her kids and grandkids,” Angela’s stepson David Shaw told Closer. “She’s a great lady. She always put family first.”
Being 96, Angela says age doesn’t define her.
“I’ve never been particularly aware of my age. It’s like being on a bicycle – I just put my foot down and keep going,” she said, according to Express.
“I never look at my face and think, ‘God, you’re getting old or think of running out of steam.”
The Murder, She Wrote star is believed to have a net worth of $70 million.
Acting talent definitely runs in the blood of the Fonda family. From Henry Fonda, his children, actor Peter Fonda and actress Jane Fonda, to his granddaughter Bridget, this name has always been sort of a synonym for the movie industry.
Bridget, who retired from acting, has captivated the attention of many with her incredible looks and skills.
Being born in the famous family of distinguished actors, her career was somehow determined from the moment she was welcomed into the world. Her passion for acting and the excitement she felt when she was cast for her school’s, Westlake School for Girls in Los Angeles, production of Harvey was more than enough for young Bridget to be absolutely sure that embarking on a career as an actress was her calling.

When she was just eight years old, Bridget’s parents divorced. During her young years, she remained in a closer relationship with her mother Susan Brewer, an artistic soul, than with her father. Later, however, she and her dad reconnected and she would often say how she was ”constantly surprised how much I’m like my dad.”
Bridget’s first noteworthy role was that of Mandy Rice-Davies in Scandal for which she was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress.
Other prominent films that shaped her career are The Godfather Part III, where she played a journalist, Single White Female, Singles, Point of No Return, an American remake of the 1990 French film Nikita, and more. Her last movie was Snow Queen, which aired in 2002, after which she hasn’t appeared on screen.
Bridget Fonda, 1989
During her acting career, Bridget turned down many roles in TV series because she wanted to focus on movies. One such role that she said no to was that of Ally McBeal in the same name series, which was later offered to actress Calista Flockhart. Ally McBeal was a huge hit and was loved worldwide, so we aren’t sure whether Bridget regretted not taking that role.
A year before she decided she had it enough of filming, gorgeous Bridget appeared as a Christmas lingerie model for H&M. She once said, ”Nudity is who people are at the most interesting point of the evening, when they take off their protective layer, when no one is watching.”

In 2003, the actress was involved in a serious car accident but only suffered minor injuries.

When it comes to her private life, she has always wanted to keep things exactly that, private. But being a celebrity and a huge name during the 80’s and the 90’s, hiding her love life from the public eye was practically impossible.
She dated actor Eric Stoltz and they were together for eight years. In 1999, she was in a relationship with country musician Dwight Yoakam. The two seemed very much in love and spoke of getting married, but instead, they broke up and Bridget said, “Um, yeah, but for some reason I just can’t seem to do it. Well, obviously not. (laughs) Somebody said the people who don’t get married are can’t get married people. This was somebody’s theory. And so I thought I must be a can’t.”
However, just a year later, in 2003, she settled down with composer Danny Elfman with whom she has son Oliver and is still married to.

Rumors are that the reason she left acting was that she wanted to devote to her family completely.
Bridget’s career might have ended sooner that any of us ever expected or wished, but who knows, maybe she will make a comeback in the years to come.

When she started performing with the Mandrell Family Band, her father hired Ken Dudney to play the drums. Later, he became Barbara’s husband and the two have been happily married for 53 years.
When they first met, Barbara was just 14, and Ken was 21. At the time, he was engaged with another girl but decided to put an end to that relationship, and four years later, on May 28, 1967, Barbara and Ken tied the knot.

”He was smart enough to be kind and polite but cool. When I fell, I fell hard. We went together all through high school. We were very much in love, and we very much wanted to get married. I very much had to graduate from high school first,” Barbara told CBN.
Barbara also said how Ken always supported her career. At one point of their relationship, when she was focused on producing music, Ken served in the Navy.

Being separated from one another was hard, but these two never lost their love and passion for one another. They have three kids, Kenneth Matthew Dudney (b. 1970), Jaime Nicole Dudney (b. 1976), and Nathaniel Mandrell Dudney (b. 1985).
When asked of the secret to a lasting and happy marriage, Barbara told the Boot, ”There are times when Ken and I would like to put each other through a wall!It happens, but we married for forever, and keeping God at the center of our lives has made it work and made it blessed and happy. Ken and I both are outgoing people — we’re yellers and screamers! But we’re also passionate at making up.”
Barbara would always say it was God who kept them together and helped them overcome every obstacle life has put on their way. Back in 2002, in an interview with CBN, she said, ”By our Heavenly Father and only because of God, only because of God. We’re like other couples. We do not get along perfectly; we do not go without arguments and, as I call them, fights, and heartache and pain and hurting each other. But a marriage is three of us.”

During her career, Barbara received many awards and recognitions for her role in the country music. Among the many, she was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2009.
This lady is still very beautiful and charming at the age of 71. Asked how she keeps herself in such shape she says, ”As far as beauty goes — my mother is just really cute. At one time, I had her figure. When I was working, I was very disciplined and was doing 90 minutes of aerobics at every show. So I was lean and mean! My mother is maximum a size 2 — it just makes me sick! [laughs] So I keep hoping one day I’ll just turn into her.”

Barbara and Ken are a perfect example of a happy couple who learned how to stay in love during all those years. We wish them many more anniversaries.
It was during a really hot day in Anaheim, California, when two patrolling officers noticed something that caught their attention. An elderly man was out on the heat, mowing the lawn. We all know that extreme heat can be dangerous, and even fatal. It can increase body temperature which can lead to heavy sweating, clammy skin, dehydration, tiredness, headache, dizziness, and a bunch of other conditions.
That is the reason why officers Alex Ungureanu and Lorenzo Uribe decided to stop their car and check on the elderly man who was wearing a button-down shirt and jeans, not really breathable type of clothes.

As it turned out, the man, Lupe Robles, was mowing his friend’s lawn completely for free, and this wasn’t the first time for him to be helping the members of his community.
The officers wouldn’t let Robles stay under the hot son any longer and offered to finish the job for him. He was really glad someone lent him a helping hand because he wasn’t used to that. He was used to helping other his entire life. In fact, once this story spread around, Robles’ neighbors said that he had a reputation of a person who loves being there for those in need.

The officers were happy to help and said it’s part of their job to assist in little things. Well, they did swear to protect and serve, didn’t they?
As for Robles, he was very happy he made new friends. “I was very grateful, I was very happy. They are totally awesome…good friends now,” he said.
