T2 WHATS UP! November 21 - 27, 2021 TV FEATURE BY RACHEL JONES TV Media T he crime-drama se- ries "Power Book II: Ghost" began its own seat-edge narrative just six months after the origi- nal series, "Power," wrapped up its sixth and final season in February 2020. Now at the end of its second season, the cast and crew are preparing to de- liver an action-packed finale fans won't want to miss. "Power Book II: Ghost" Season 2 draws to a close on Sunday, Nov. 21, on Starz. In a shocking, pseudo-Shake- spearean move, fans looked on as Tariq (Michael Rainey Jr., "The Butler," 2013) killed his fa- ther, Ghost, in Season 1. As he dealt with the consequences of his actions, Monet (Mary J. Blige, "Mudbound," 2017), the Tejada family matriarch, was left to take the fall for Ghost's murder, and now she's without her trusted bodyguard, Owl (Preston Christopher Law- rence, "The Punisher"). Ever since the murder, Tariq has been battling haunting re- flections of the father he killed, the mother he doomed and the life he chose. So far, Tariq has struggled to save his family business. While trying to obey Monet's wishes and attend high school, the ruthless Tejada family's hold over the young man is strong, gunning for him to take control of the streets. If "Power Book II: Ghost" has taught audiences anything, it's that looks can be deceiving, and your biggest ally might just be your greatest ene- my. "Power" was created and produced by Courtney A. Kemp ("The Good Wife") in collaboration with Curtis "50 Cent" Jackson ("Freelancers," 2012) and aired from 2014 to 2020. The series follows the story of James "Ghost" St. Pat- rick (Omari Hardwick, "For Colored Girls," 2010), who was an intelligent drug dealer try- ing to leave the criminal world behind to pursue a legitimate business as a nightclub owner. All the while, he evaded arrest and his crumbling family life. Meanwhile, his son had plen- ty of other plans and problems stemming from his father's world. On top of that, Tariq deals with his own dilemmas, chief among which involves his love interest, Diana (LaToya Tonodeo, "The Oath," 2018), part of the Tejada family, with whom Tariq has a (quite literal) love-hate relationship. Tariq transitions from a side character in "Power" to a moral- ly grey anti-hero in "Power Book II." It's a role that, given Tariq's Bentonville Acupuncture 5 x 5 Preston Christopher Lawrence and Mary J.

Local resident Ann T. found herself at a turning point when she noticed her diagnosis started to take its toll on her marriage. "I was always angry because of the things I couldn't do anymore because of my fibromyalgia. that anger cycled through to depression and affected everyone around me, my husband more than anyone. It made our lives miserable." Fibromyalgia affects the entire body, and to make things complicated it affects everyone's body a little differently. To make things even more complicated, those effects can change on a daily basis. Sometimes you're plagued with widespread muscle pain and fatigue, other days it's a headache and heightened sensitivity to touch. "I could barely stand to have the light weight of bedsheets touching me, much less a hug from my husband." Your primary care doctor will suggest dietary changes, pain liniments and pharmaceuticals to the point where your life is no longer ruled by Fibromyalgia but instead it's ruled by a routine and pill regimen in order to avoid flare ups. Ann put it this way, "My life was no longer my own." In her own research Ann discovered that acupuncture can help ease pain and improve the quality of life of Fibro patients. She was then determined to find the best in the business which is how she discovered BAWC and Marsha Kaye, Dr of Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine. Marsha Kaye, DACM has over 15 years successfully treating difficult to manage chronic pain conditions using the time tested science of acupuncture integrated with modern medical advancements in healing and recovery. "I feel like a new person. My husband comes with me to my appointments and spends most of it thanking dr. Kaye for giving him back the woman he married. for the first time since we moved here, one of my neighbors told me I looked good! It's a miracle, I don't know how else to explain it." If you're looking for a doctor and a practice, Ann describes BAWC almost as enthusiastically as she does their treatments. "They understand your diagnosis and have proven solutions for chronic pain. Look no further than BAWC." For more information and to schedule a consultation call (479) 268-3375 but do so quickly!
