When the tape is rolling they all forget they are being watched and taped. Enza starts up again and this lady just loves to argue and fight and just tear people down. Enza starts calling Kim and Alex losers and they are both no good, but here Enza playing both sides of the field in telling Alex the teenager that her mom is a terrible one and that she sleeps around to get $ for botox, lip injections and so forth and just talking mad smack about her mother. This poor teen is torn between both these ladies and the grandmother has no balls to stand up and say something to both of them. Sitting there in the flippen kitchen talking trash and Enza really knows how to push peoples buttons to make herself look like the good one but all she is doing is making things worse. Kim and Jeanette feel that Enza has her own problems because she is loosing it with her own kids and wants her problems to be ours and she needs to fix her own home problems with her own kids. Dr. Phil talks to Alex about her random sex activity in laundry rooms with random guys and said that $300.00 dollars I a lot of money and she could but a lot of stuff with that and she has never had that kind of money. Well a teen is not to have that kind of money unless they have a job and save. She tells him that she doesn’t feel good after she has sex and wants to stop and wants help. Dr. Phil lets her know she is loved and her mother loves her and wants the best. The mother admits that she has made mistakes and wants to fix things and make a better life for her daughter and is welling to do anything that is needed. They showed the car drive on the way to the clinic so Alex can take her test to see what all she has or if she is clean. The minute they got in the car not even 3 minutes passed and there is Enza all up in the mix and talking all kinds of trash again saying you’re a no good mother and look what kind of an example and starts to point at Alex. I mean come on now Enza give it a break. Kim wants her completely out of there lives and I can see why. Alex is clean free and is going to listen to Dr. Phil in starting over. Back at the house Dr. Phil sits down with Kim and Enza again and asked them both questions about do you down one another in front of Alex or do you ever talk bad about one another to her and Enza says never. I never talk bad about Kim to her daughter, well he played a tape of the conversation that Enza had with Alex and all she said was bad things about her mother and when Kim saw the tape she dropped her mouth and couldn’t believe what she saw. Kim looked over at Enza with just shame on her face and Enza was busted and had nothing to say. Alex has no trust in her mother at all and couldn’t even look at her mom when Dr. Phil asked her to so she can tell her what she is feeling. Its pretty heart breaking to see a young teen like her that cant even look at her mother’s face to tell her how she feels, but will look at her aunt Enza. Alex and Enza were in the kitchen talking and eating some food and Kim walks in to get some dressing for her salad and here again is Enza all up in her face in how she is this and how she is that and look what you raised and so forth. After a while Kim says I don’t want to argue with you stop talking like that around my daughter and Enza keeps going and going. Well Enza looks like you were not raised right either so you have no room to talk. Alex walks out and goes to her room she is tired of them yelling and wants to be alone and the grandmother is sitting in the kitchen watching all this chewing on her gun and says nothing. I can’t believe she didn’t stand up for her daughter nor her grand-daughter. Kim walks into Alex’s room and ask her how she is doing and Alex says fine. She was tired of watching them fight as that’s all they do. Alex asked her mom why do you guys fight so much and she said it’s the way she is and she is trying to make things better but she is always tearing me down. Right now this whole family really needs Dr. Phils help and hopefully one day Enza will stay out of there business and attend to her own. Next Monday will be the finial in this story so check back to see what the end results are in this episode.

1-25-07 On this last episode, thing’s did get a little headed up and in the end was all good. Alex is having a hard time with everything that is going on in the house and Dr. Phil confronts Alex’s aunt Enza and her mother Kim about how there relationship is affecting Alex in every way and is leading her to turn to men for comfort. Enza get this “apologies” for her inappropriate conversation with Alex about Kim, but does she really mean it, looking at her face I don’t think so but maybe. The grandmother Jeanette is upset because she hears Enza basically stating she needs to get her own place. Quickly Jeanette tells Kim about it that she might have to move out and find her own spot and Kim gets upset and says you are not going anywhere. Jeanette needs to step to the plate and take charge here as Kim is her daughter and Alex her granddaughter, but she does nothing but sit and watch. Something not right with this picture!!! After they had dipped into Alex’s cell phone and Kim heard a message from an older man trying to contact Alex for sex, Kim the mother was disgusted. A private investigator “Harold Copus” meets with Alex and gets all the information of the older man she has been and the hunt is on. Alex also finds out on her last day staying in the house that she won’t be going home with her mother and that she will be heading to a therapeutic academy so she can be in a healthy learning environment and learn how to take care of herself and to take on responsibilities in life and would be for about 6 months. Alex’s breaks down and cries as she has to leave ASAP. Jeanette and Kim “mother – daughter” have a streaming conversation with each other and they go at it. Jeanette feels Kim tries and runs her and Kim feels the same, but Kim hello that is your mother. Jeanette states they fight at the store over getting basic things, and Kim states she doesn’t. They talked about Alex and Kim gets upset with her mother in not supervising Alex when she is in her care and Jeanette tells Kim that she didn’t care about what she was doing on the computer and Kim states that she did all that stuff out of the house going to friends houses and doing it and end comments Kim says she cares and is doing something about it and Jeanette states well if you do why is she still on myspace and walks out. Enza feelings are that Jeanette will always suck Kim in and eventually Kim will be a bitter old lady just like her mom and now feels Jeanette will always come between Kim and Enza and the reason why a lot of people leave Kim is because of her mother. Kim admits that Dr. Phil had opened up her eyes on things and the way her and Enza have been acting and admits things can be great between them and times it’s not. When Enza recently got married things got worse and feels that everyone wants them to fail. They both agreed to work on things to make it better for them and the family. Jeanette states that Enza wants her out of Kim’s house and Kim is the one that has to make that decision. She will not talk to Enza she doesn’t want to hear her comments and or talk to her about anything. This family is on its way to recovery as Alex is on her way to her new place she will be spending the next 6 months starting over in life. As for Enza and Kim they will work on there relashionship and come to terms with things so Alex can come home to a peaceful home and be a good kid. As for Jeanette if Kim wants her to move out she will but she really doesn’t seen like she wants to do much so time will tell on her. In two weeks the next guest to appear in the Dr. Phil house 3 marriages on the verge of divorce and are tired of living the way they do. The show will be “Man’s Camp”. Stay tune

What the critics say on the best and worst dressed star’s for the global awards night. 

Best Dressed:

Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie – Of course the sexy couple of Hollywood Brad Pitt “Classic Tux” & Angelina Jolie “ruched charcoal gray St. John gown” were best dressed and they looked good but Brad doesn’t have to do much to look good anyway and of Angelina is just flat out a sexy bomb shell. 

Kate Winslet looked good in her white drapped Azzarro Column dress with all the bling bling on her. 

Penelope Cruz wore a soft black Chanel couture gown that was designed just for her.  Of course Jenny from the block looked great in a 60’s style black hairdo Marchesa gown. 

Drew Barrymore – She was dressed so pretty – pure and elegant with a long white/cream color gown from Christian Dior with no jewelry just a simple ring and her little purse. 

Hilary Swank – Wore a classic pin-up style dress with a fitting black gown with a 53-carat diamond.

Jennifer Garner – She never misses and she looked just so pretty in her white/silver vintage gaultier gown.  She can use a little tan, but still looked great. 

Eva Longoria – In her navy color ungaro gown was pretty and it was her first time ever wearing the color “Navy”.

Ali Larter – Wore a pretty cream color gown by Reem Acra.  She needed a little bit more bust to pull it off even better, but she still looked great for only have a few hours to get ready before the show.  

Jessica Biel – Looked famously toned body wearing a glitter backless soft gold color gown and looked very plush.  

Cate Blanchett – To me looked okay really didn’t care for the long black tail she had but they liked it.  It was a off the shoulder black lace dress by British Designer Alexander McQueen. 

Reese Witherspoon – Just looked hot that night.  Got some hair length on her and her skin just glowed like her dress, wearing a yellow modern edge gown. 

Jennifer Hudson – Looked pretty in her Vera Wang gown. 

Worst Dressed

Cameron Diaz – I really don’t know what look she was going for but that white dress with all the ruffles were just to much and didn’t go good with her pale skin and that jet black hair.  But she is a good actress.

Beyonce Knowles – The dress was a little too much all in gold and all that glitter WOW just a bit too much girl, but the hair was lovely. 

Ferrera – From the show Ugly Betty came with a dark blue gown by Brain Reyes and reminded me of my prom dress in high school.  Hair and Make-up were good, but the dress had to go.

Nicollette Sheridan – Looked like a Barbie doll all dressed up and it looked like her dress was so tight she might rip it if she sat down.  I have seen her in better looking dresses, but this one didn’t make the cut. 

Patricia Arquette – I just don’t know if she will ever wear something that flatters her, but it was a terrible dress she wore and didn’t complement her figure either.  Maybe next year!!

Jennifer Love Hewitt – Always looks pretty but that gold ball-gown was a bit too much.  Looked like she was ready for battle!

Rinko Kikuchi – Okay now this dress looked like a toss up between PJ’s and a big bowl of cotton candy.  All those ruffle balls just didn’t go work.

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP
 

New Orleans Saints @ Chicago Bears
3:00 PM ET Sunday, January 21, 2007 on FOX
 

 

Bears keys to victory

The Bears must find a way to contain the high-octane #1 ranked New Orleans offense. They must get them off the field on third down. New Orleans was third in the NFL in third-down conversion rate, 44.9 percent, during the season and Saints QB Dre Brees has been at his best keeping third down plays alive. The Chicago defense permitted a minuscule third-down conversion rate of 31 percent, but it faltered late in the season, surrendering 39.1 percent in the last month of the year and in Sunday’s divisional-round win over Seattle. Because it wasn’t able to get off the field, the Bears’ defense wore down and allowed an average of 25.8 points in its past five outings.

On offense the Bears must establish the running game period. They must take the pressure off QB Rex Grossman; Grossman hasn’t been playing well lately and flat out doesn’t have the tools to put a team on his back. Rex was able to hit Bernard Berrian deep down the field for a big play last weekend and was able to put up some points on the board. Bernard Berrian is the key to the Bears success. If they can establish the run early it will open up play action passing down the field where Rex Grossman is at his best.

Saints keys to victory

The Saints offense has been balanced all season long and head Coach Sean Payton, play calling has been awesome. He remains fearless and will test the secondary all day long. Against a typed defense like that of the Bears, it’s often beneficial for an offense to go out of character and the Saints like to do that, passing on early downs and running on third down. The New Orleans offensive mix keeps a defense guessing. It also allows the Saints to dictate the tempo and keep their high energy offense moving. Tailback Deuce McAllister is the mussel behind the running game and will need to run well to keep the Bears defense guessing. QB Drew Brees will make plays down the field to Marques Colston the question is how many.
On defense the Saints must apply pressure on Bears quarterback Rex Grossman also in pinching against the run. The New Orleans Defensive ends represent one of the best two-way tandems in the game. They combined for 16½ sacks in 2006 between the hashes and will have Rex Grossman looking behind his back.
Current odds: Bears -2.5, total 43

Pick: Take DA Bears -2.5. A dome team on the road in Chicago in January.�
       Weather factor.

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP
 

New England Patriots @ Indianapolis Colts
6:30 PM ET Sunday, January 21, 2007 on CBS
 

Colts keys to victory

Colts QB Peyton Manning must continue to play within himself and take what defenses are giving him. Teams have taken away the homerun ball and are forcing him to throw the ball between the hashes and up the seams to tight ends and tailbacks out of the back field. Dallas Clark has 15 catches for 200 yards in the playoffs and has given Manning a go to guy when the pressure comes.  The short passing attack will eventually open up plays to WR’s Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne down the field.  Colts RB Joseph Addai has been impressive running the ball between the tackles and will need to keep things going this weekend to keep the Patriots defense honest.
On defense the Defensive ends Dwight Freeney and Robert Mathis must bring pressure to Patriots QB Tom Brady if they plan on getting a win. San Diego did a good job on Brady for three quarters and let up in the fourth and lost the game. The Colts cant afford to let Tom Brady hang around or he will beat you. If the Colts can’t pressure Tom Brady they have no shot at winning. If the Colts can keep it close down the stretch they have the X factor in Kicker Adam Vinatieri their free agent acquisition who came over from New England. He’s the best clutch kicker of all time and would love a send his former team home.
 

Patriots keys to victory

The New England Patriots secondary is going to need a big game from everyone, Cornerback Asante Samuel is playing lights out and will likely match up against Marvin Harrison all afternoon. The Patriots need to keep the action in front of them, tackle well and not surrender any big plays. If they can contain the Colts WR’s Marvin Harrison and Reggie Wayne all afternoon they should win the game.  The Patriots front line must disrupt Mannings rythum. Manning hasn’t been playing well during the post season and has been bailed out by their defense. Manning needs to have a big game for the Colts to advance.

On offense the Patriots must establish the run.  The Colts had one of the worse run defenses in league history during the regular season. In the playoffs the Colts have been stellar in shutting down Larry Johnson and Jamal Lewis, both are big backs in run orientated systems.  Look for the Patriots to stay with the running game to free up play action passing attack for Tom Brady. The Patriots must look to control the clock to avoid a shootout at all costs. The Colts are peaking as a team and the Patriots had luck on their side last weekend in San Diego.  If the Patriots can’t establish the run they will loose the game. Indy knows this and will stack the line.
Current odds:  Colts -3, total 47.5

Pick:  Take the Patriots +3. Tom Brady factor….enough said!

As Miami Ink’s Chris Carver says, “It’s easy to become a tattoo artist these days, But it’s not easy to become a good one” Here’s your chance to become a judge of good work. And remember to check back often to see how your favorites are faring. Miami Ink is a new TV series on TLC that airs at Tuesday at 10PM. Miami Ink is based on the everyday life and career of a tattoo shop located in South Beach, Miami. The show takes us into the interesting, colorful, painful, and intriguing world of tattoo artistry. The unique thing about this tattoo shop that its run by a group of friends. The artists are Ami James, Chris Nunez, Chris Garver and Darren Brass, and they have Yugi as the Apprentice thats their to really learn everything he can about the art of tattooing, one episode they made him tattoo a dead pig for practice. Another interesting thing about Miami Ink is the fact that every person that comes in the shop tells you the story behind the tattoo, which is really interesting as many have unique stories. Many people get tattoos in memory of loved ones, favorite activities or a change of live style just to name a few. TLC has done a great job creating this show and it seems to be much more interesting then the show inked.

What happens when a child that grows up getting everything they want?  Do they respect there parents and or respect life itself.  Dr. Rabbi Shmuley speaks out on Oprah on who helps families in crises and he also has his own TLC reality TV series “Shalom in the house”.  He is a father of 8 and the author of “10 conversations you need to have with your children.  The Hurons family have married for 16 years and have (4) children and gave them everything they ever wanted.  Greg the father is a chiropractor and Ruth is a yoga instructor and brings calmness to all their client’s life’s but has havoc in there own lives.  Dr. Rabbi had stayed with the Hurons family and during his stay there was NO peace in their own home.  Ruth states she is always in constant battle with her kids and they really don’t care and they have no respect for me nor there father.  She has always wanted to be a mom and to be an effective one, and do a good job, but is feeling like she is failing in the one job that is everything to her.  Greg the father states the kids have no respect and they have become manipulative and sneaky.  He feels numb inside and doesn’t want to be around the head ach.  No one knows how to communicate in the house we all live together but are all going in different directions.  The children are saying their mom is always nagging at them just fills them with anger and frustration.  Nick the oldest one states all my mom does is nag nag nag”, and is looking for a way out of the house.  She picks the littlest things to argue about.  My father is either ticked off or tuned out and is always at work.  The kids understand that he has to be at work but when he comes home he just says “OH” I don’t want to deal with it right now and that is what Forrest states.  Then when he does deal with things, he just gets really angry and is in a bad mood and that affects the whole house and becomes a trickle down affect.  Dr. Rabbi’s comments are children misbehave because of ineffective parenting.  Parents are making the mistake by parenting out of fear and trying to be their friend when they should be the parent.  We believe that by coming off the pedestal and not asserting authority, they will embrace us much more warmly and is just not true.  They will have many friends in there life but they will only have one mother and one father so its time to be a parent and step up to the plate.  Greg is allowing his success outside the home to determine what it will be inside the home when he feels he falls short his family will suffer.  It boils down to money and fame with men.  The average guy who just does the right thing but is not recognized for it, he feels he failed and feels like he is a zero.  For Greg and Ruth’s case to bring success in there family unit they will have to work hard and redefine there success in their lives.  The man who sits and does homework with his children when nobody is watching and the man who conquers his passions and focuses his lust on one woman in his left and when no one is watching… To do the right thing because its right is heroic!!! This family will have a lot of work to do to fix things but they are all willing to do the work to make it happened. 

Do you think its okay for a (4) year old to have her own cell phone and have her first big diamond at that age and have all what she wants.  Kelly a divorced single mom who admits she spoils her daughter and just can’t say no to her.  She buys her tons of toys, DVD’s clothes, manicures and pedicures.  She currently has spent over $5000.00 dollars on Barbie dolls and accessories and $1000.00 on American Girl Dolls and accessories and more then $2000.00 pm DVD’s.  When it comes to clothes the mother says there is no limit to what she can have.  She feels its okay to get them what they want and sees no problem doing so.  Dr. Rabbi states what she is doing is not giving your daughter a sense of being but a sense of having.  If she doesn’t have, she is not happy and nor know what to do when she can’t have something.   She is going to open a cavernous space that needs to be filled always with things instead of LOVE.  Kelly states she doesn’t spend much time with her because she works and feels bad so she buys her things to make herself feel better and not guilty of leaving her daughter.  Kelly has to stop parenting out of guilt and be a mother and love your daughter and not spoil her.  Everyone has to work, but the quality time you spend with them does a lot.  No mater what life style you lead, being a parent is hard work and the quality of time you spend with your kids and communicate with them makes a big difference in life and show them how respect life and that you always do get what you want and thats life.  Dont spoil your kids at a young age or you will have hard times and troubles with them as they grow up and will have no respect for you as a parent becusae they cant have what they want.

Here is a family that is desperate and turns to Dr. Phil for help to save a young teen Alex 14yrs old girl who at the age of 13 years started running away, stealing and doing drugs and prostituting herself to men nearly twice her age to get money for cigarettes and Marijuana.  She has moved from three different schools and has failed school for the past (3) years.  She was also put into foster care and has been in three homes and removed from the last one for getting drunk and dislocating a 4 year old’s arm.  She states her mom hits her, spits on her, is too strict and wants to work things out with her mom and things her grandma is hard on her and Enza makes her feel terrible. 

The mother “Kim” says she can no longer control her own daughter and has put her in foster homes after hearing about her daughter in her sexual oral acts.  Kim’s sister-in-law “Enza” states Kim is a poor excuse for a mother.  O That is not cool to say.  She also said Alex is only modeling what she learned from her mother.  Can these women work together and make peace for Alex’s sake???  Part 1 – After they had spoken to Kim on the phone Dr. Phil arranged for the family to move into the Dr. Phil house where cameras monitor there every move and every comment made and Dr. Phil can intervene at any given time he wants.  Alex’s grandmother “Jeanette” will also be staying in the house along with Kim, Alex and Enza.  Alex and Enza are sister-in-law’s and can not be in the same room without having to fight with one another.  Enza feels Kim’s parenting skills are not good and feels Alex behavior is all on Kim and is her doing.  Jeanette admits she checked out when it comes to Alex and no longer puts in her comments about it either.  Just minutes from moving into the house Alex jumps on the internet and starts looking for older men and Dr. Phi sits down with Kim to find out how the family became this way.  Kim denies being an alcoholic, but she does admit she partied a lot in front of her daughter.  Enza watches from the other room and is frustrated by all the lies Kim is saying.  When she joins in the conversation it gets ugly and sparks start flying and they both got into an argument, wow these two are just out of control here, there faces turn red with anger and you can just see the hatred they have for one another.  Part (2) Alex sits with Dr. Phil and goes over her destructive behavior and tells him she wants help.  Dr. Phi was upset and speechless after he watches an inappropriate conversation Enza had with her niece bad mouthing her mother.  Then Enza starts to fight with Kim as always in front of Alex.  Alex heads to the clinic to be tested to see if she has any sexually transmitted diseases.  Another headed argument breaks out between Enza and Kim and it goes on and goes one and the there mouths are just terrible.  These two never stop and no wonder the pool teen girl is at a loss and is the way she is.  Dr. Phi sits down with Alex and talks about her future and wants a better one and is willing to work to get it.  Alex gets a phone call and it’s the doctor with her test results and Alex is relieved her test came back negative for HIV and Dr. Phil reminds her that she is getting a second chance here to start over and she needs to step it up and take charge of her life and she has to want to change.  Dr. Phil also sits Kim and Enza down and they watch a tape of them two fighting and what a shock it was to see as Kim looks at Enza with the look on her face for an explanation of things. Today Monday the 15^th will be the ending of this story so check back for an update and see how things ended and where they will be going from here.
