			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Lindsay Lohan got her acting career started as a child model for the Ford agency in New York. Her mother took her to the agency and she was accepted right away and got started doing commercials and print ad work. Soon she wanted to expand into the entertainment industry and do acting beyond modeling.</p>
<p>The Disney movie remake of the Parent trap was her big break into the entertainment world. The starlet was playing the role of twin sisters and worked with big Hollywood talent. Everyone was so convinced that she was really great talent and she impressed people. Even though she had a really bad family situation at home, her career was going to take off in a big way.</p>
<p>The youngster&#8217;s father made headlines when he was arrested and went to jail for various crimes. He was an embarrassment to her and it probably caused her a lot of undo stress at such a young and tender age. She kept pursuing acting roles and getting acclaim from directors and her coworkers.</p>
<p>Jobs and big opportunities for the star were always coming in during those years where she had been struggling to go from a kid actor to a teenager gracefully. During this time period she was in the movie Herbie the Love Bug which was a really popular remake. Her issues with her weight and other personal problems started to become visible to outsiders in her life. This happens when young people have too much money and great fame and the pressures get to be too much especially with no parents to guide and help.</p>
<p>Tabloid newspapers and internet websites started talking about her and all of these bad troubles she was having with drug use and weight issues. A lot of people on the outside thought she was really headed down the wrong path and they tried to do something to help her and change it. It was really affecting her once super promising acting career and she could have been such a huge celebrity.</p>
<p>The entertainment industry took notice of her troubles and some people tried to help her out and offer some kind of guidance and treatment but it was a real struggle. Movie roles were still coming for her but there were reports that she was showing up to work and film sets late and even unprepared. She was costing the studios thousands of dollars with her increasingly poor choices and personal issues.</p>
<p>There were relationships for her, romantic ones with high profile actors and even some other people. The actress&#8217; Mom was supposedly managing her but it didn&#8217;t seem that she had been doing a good job at all and was enabling her bad behaviors. The industry stayed away from this girl, because she became uninsurable and totally unreliable and no one wants to put up with that nonsense.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s so many years ago that Lindsay Lohan acted in big movies along with big name stars. Her career was once shining very bright and now her star just faded. She deals often with legal issues to this very day but everybody hopes that she&#8217;s going to make a comeback. It would be such a thrill to see this struggling woman turn her life and career in the right direction.</p>

Or there is the urban wave. It has a laid back and fun look to it.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Most people have an inclination towards sports, especially Americans. And it is quite normal for fanatics to show their support for the teams they revere by wearing apparel like jerseys and caps. This is why <a target='_blank' href="http://www.hatdreams.com">college snapback hats</A> came out as a fad for many people, even up to now.</p>
<p>Indeed, caps representing different teams across the U. S. And Canada are being sold in mom and pop stores as well as online shops. If you want to partake in the practice yourself for the upcoming NCAA event, then you need to consider the following tips for buying caps.</p>
<p>First, you need to ascertain which team you are for. Find out where you intend to give your loyalty to in order to choose a name for your hat. Then, you can begin browsing over the different brochures offered by shops.</p>
<p>Designs are a lot too choose from too. If you want lesser complications on your hat, then go for much simpler designs in plain colors and plain prints. But if you want some glitters and some more bolder prints, there are also some flabbergasting designs available for all ages and gender.</p>
<p>Therefore, you have to make sure you look at the brochures and choices all throughout. Decide on what design you like and what colors you think will suit most of the clothes you have in your wardrobe. This will spare you from having trouble on matching clothes to your hat.</p>
<p>For maximum comfort and functionality, you should choose a hat that has the right size for your head of course. Even though snapbacks are adjustable, it definitely will not do you good to buy a big hat when you have a very small head. Thus, find out the exact sizes of the caps before buying them.</p>
<p>Of course, you have to think about the budget you have for buying college snapback hats. Different stores have different rates, and some can even provide discounts. Nevertheless, you need to examine the fees because hidden charges for shipping, if you are buying online, may apply too.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Oakley sunglasses is gaining popularity among people mainly because lots of renowned athletes has been promoting and, of course, using them. The athletes are the primary market of the company. Now, it is made available to everyone with other designs to fit their lifestyle.</p>
<p>The basic feature of each pair is protection from wind, impact and sun. These elements might pose risk to the athlete&#8217;s eyes or cause difficulty to them. In order to address this concern, the company created a product that can protect the athlete from all three. That became the benchmark of their standards for style, design and materials.</p>
<p>The very important feature of this brand is its protection from impact. Before production, a series of lab tests are done to ensure resistance from slow speed heavy objects. They also work on reducing impact from high speed light objects. This may include a baseball, end of the racket or the likes.</p>
<p>Before hitting the market, each product need to pass three extensive tests in line with the American standards. This ensures that each of them can really protect the user&#8217;s eyes as what it is advertising. The materials they use are duly patented and proven by lab and external tests to be really effective.</p>
<p>Its lens are made of a special material patented as Plutonite. This protects the eyes from damage caused by ultraviolet lights like UVA, UVB and most of all UVC. This also restricts the blue light from passing through.</p>
<p>The frame, on the other hand, are made of durable but lightweight type of materials. They are proven to be flexible so that they can resist heavy impact. Each follows the standard three point fit that ensures they not too tight nor too loose. This provides more comfort to its user. Additionally, each is particularly designed not to obstruct one&#8217;s line of sight.</p>
<p>The price of each pair is very affordable. This is a good buy considering the quality it offers. Now, anyone may just have his chance to wear his own Oakley sunglasses, not only the athletes. <a target='_blank' href="http://www.sunglasses-goggles.com">Oakley Sunglasses</A></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>The Level 5 Motorsports team&#8217;s performance at Petit Le Mans recently was a testament to the fact that you can set yourself up for success. Team owner-driver Scott Tucker has spent the last full year preparing for the team&#8217;s LMP2 class debut at Road Atlanta in Petit Le Mans, the final race of the American Le Mans Series season. Tucker built the team, they practiced, and they were all but perfect at the race.</p>
<p>Tucker&#8217;s preparations began late recently when he added Luis Diaz to the driving roster. The team had just come off a first win at Petit Le Mans in the lowest LMP class, which bumped them up to the LMP2 class for the 2011 season, a class of elite drivers that has historically been dominated by powerful Nissan prototypes. Diaz had driven in the LMP2 series since 2007, finishing sixth in the first season with Fernandez Racing and later claiming the class championship in 2009. He was also voted Most Popular Driver that year. </p>
<p>Diaz would add depth in an already skilled, experienced Level 5 team, but his LMP2 experience would be integral to Level 5&#8242;s success right out of the gates this season. As the team tackled the racing season, Tucker was focused on winning, both presently and for the future. The drivers made podium at numerous races this year, but Tucker&#8217;s constant pursuit of success wasn&#8217;t completely evident until he announced in July that Level 5 would switch cars mid-season because he had purchased two brand new Honda prototypes. The cars had been on Tucker&#8217;s radar for months while in design and development, and he determined these were the top line and Level 5&#8242;s best chance at being a contender in the Nissan-dominated LMP2 ALMS field. </p>
<p>Right before Petit Le Mans, Marino Franchitti joined the Level 5 lineup. Raising Diaz&#8217;s experience one, Franchitti had extensive experience driving the Honda models Level 5 had recently acquired. The HPD ARX-01 cars are cost-capped with modified fuel injectors, allowing for greater speeds at lighter weights. Franchitti had driven nearly every HPD ARX-01 model, starting with the HPD ARX-01a up to the HPD ARX-01g&#8217;s that Tucker had just bought. </p>
<p>A year of team building events payed off for Tucker and his teammates at Petit Le Mans. The cars performed flawlessly even though they barely had four digits of miles under their wheels. Level 5 has typically entered two cars in Le Mans races, and it could be hard to have a better outcome for their double-entry style than they did at Petit. One car, driven by Diaz and Franchitti, snagged the pole position during testing, setting a track record. During the race, the entry driven by Tucker, Joao Barbosa and Christophe Bouchut held off the Nissan competitor long enough to stay ahead, and when the Nissan experienced mechanical problems in hour five, the Level 5 prototype pulled away. The team cruised to an 8-lap lead and ultimate victory at Road Atlanta, securing the drivers&#8217; championship for Tucker and Bouchut as well as some valuable ILMC points for the team.</p>
<p>Almost all Tucker&#8217;s preparations have come to this point. The team heads next to the seventh and final round of ILMC competition with the 6 Hours of Zhuhai in China, where they&#8217;ll aim for a vice championship. Tying up a successful 2011 season with multiple consecutive wins would propel the team toward a 2012 season of high expectations. Knowing Level 5 Motorsports, they&#8217;ll be ready.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>With the help of technology, children can easily obtain an access about media so they are aware of it. Being a well-known individual in show business is one of the usual goals of children. One probable reason is the influence of celebrities to their supporters. It must be a lesson for famous celebrities to show good behavior to their supporters at all time.</p>
<p>Filipino celebrities consider that they need to act upright to be a good example to the young ones. This obliges them to stay conscious about their behaviors at all times.</p>
<p>Because of computers and similar gadgets, it is not easy to shelter youngsters against untoward events. Children have a hard time in differentiating decisions that makes sense from those that do not. Instead of asking their parents for a better option, children tend to imitate their idols as an alternative.</p>
<p>Another age group aside from children that celebrities tend to influence is adolescents. It does matter if an outfit is suitable for teens, as long as a star uses it then they will use it as well. Teens are not simply imitating way of clothing but also some attitudes and practices. It is vital for guardians to monitor the things that a teen is imitating to ensure it is proper. The intention of this write up is to let parents know that they are the best role models for teenagers.</p>
<p>Appropriate traits are significant for guardians to impart to their adolescents to improve their persona. Guardians may opt to break their busy schedule in certain instances to be with teens to gain their thrust. The best role models for teens are not celebrities; their guardians are the perfect roles models for them. People around the community where adolescent live may help in molding teenagers but guidance of parents is more significant.</p>
<p>It is hard for parents to determine how good they were in guiding their children for they are not always together. In spite of this, it is parent&#8217;s duty to be persistent in raising their children according to their own values and by setting noble examples.</p>
<p>Being a bad influence to the viewing public is not the purpose of stars in portraying different roles for their concern is just to entertain. Nothing is wrong about watching movies as long as parents guide their children on what to watch. Before teens who admire Bea Alonzo wear similar clothes to that of their idol, they must first seek the approval of their parents. Therefore, guardians are essential in guiding teenagers in order to become a good individual.</p>
<p><b><a target='_blank' href="http://pinoy.idolko.com/category/joshua-dionisio">Joshua Dionisio</a></b> is one of the most popular child stars today and he became famous after he played the role of young &#8220;Cholo&#8221; in Stairway to heaven.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>Paula Yates, former wife of Sir Bob Geldof and girlfriend of late rocker Michael Hutchence, had a knack for giving her children unusual names. Among her brood are Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa, Heavenly Hiraani Tigerlily, and Little Pixie. </p>
<p>Yet, some celebrity baby names make sense if you know the story behind them. Eurythmic&#8217;s Dave Stewart named his son Django after jazz guitarist Django Reinhardt. Stevie Wonder named his son Mandla Kadjaly Carl Stevland, however Mandla means &#8220;powerful&#8221; in Zulu and Kadjaly means &#8220;born from God&#8221; in Swahili. Helen Hunt just gave birth to a baby girl she named Makena&#8217;lei Gordon. The name Makena&#8217;lei is from a friend&#8217;s dream and means &#8220;many flowers of heaven.&#8221; Gordon, an unlikely girl&#8217;s name, was to honor of Helen&#8217;s father, television director Gordon Hunt.</p>
<p> Nicolas Cage just named his new baby boy Kal-el. Because Nicolas took his stage name of Cage from comic book character Luke Cage, he decided to name his son Kal-el after one of his favorite comic book heroes. Kal-el is Superman&#8217;s kryptonian name.</p>
<p>So, do the children like these unconventional names given them by their parents? In some cases, they do. The Phoenix&#8217;s seem to love their nature-inspired names and the Zappa children seem to have had no ill effects from their eccentric names. However, some children tire of the peculiar names quickly. Zowie Bowie had had enough of his moniker by the time he was 12 and asked to be referred to as &#8220;Joey.&#8221; Although Dandelion Richards does not seem too bad, she has since started referring to herself as Angela. Recently, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa Geldof has been the most outspoken about the odd choice her parents made in naming her. She has been quoted as saying, &#8220;I hate ridiculous names. My weird name has haunted me all my life.&#8221; </p>
<p>While having an unusual name might be difficult for any child, the celebrity of a child&#8217;s parents may enhance it even further. Thankfully, celebrity children who decide they don&#8217;t like their given names can switch to a nickname or even eventually have their names legally changed.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>The effects of media to children today are dramatic because they commonly observe issues about it. Aside from finishing a degree, minors are now dreaming to become famous as well. Supporters want to imitate their idols so these instances are happening. Aside from being a famous personality, celebrities are also role models so they must act upright.</p>
<p>Both adults and children may imitate a celebrity and Pinoy celebrities are aware about this matter. Being responsible in their decisions and actions is anticipated to them.</p>
<p>Due to the existence of computers, children&#8217;s exposure in societal dilemmas is hard to bring to an end. Selecting the correct option from a variety of choices is difficult for youngsters to do at this time. When a celebrity idolized by children wears short skirt then they may prefer to wear such skirt as well.</p>
<p>Aside from the children, the biggest impact of celebrities is evident in most teenagers. Both physical looks and preference of adolescents in outfits are obviously based in a star&#8217;s choice. In certain instances, some teenagers imitate customs and practices of famous stars. The second teens behave unpleasantly, parents may get involve and talk to their teen. Here are various strategies for guardians to be an efficient influential individual for their adolescent.</p>
<p>As early as possible, parents must show to their kids the significance of proper behavior as they grow up. For teens to feel that they are valued, it is advisable for parents to spend time in listening to their ideas. The best role models for teens are not celebrities; their guardians are the perfect roles models for them. Do not just let other people shape the future character of teens, parents but enter and assist in guiding teenagers on the right path.</p>
<p>Most teens are studying and guardians are working so guardians are not sure if teens are practicing right behaviors. Because parents are expected to guide their offspring, they must not stop in reminding their teenagers about worth of acting properly.</p>
<p>Famous personalities are simply doing their projects well, when adolescents imitate their behaviors then it is already beyond their control. Parents must remember that their presence is essential the time their offspring watchers a movie. If teenagers want to wear clothes similar to <b><a target='_blank' href="http://pinoy.idolko.com/category/kathryn-bernardo">Kathryn Bernardo</a></b> and parents let them wear those then they can wear the clothes anytime. Parent&#8217;s guidance is vital in raising adolescents who can distinguish right from wrong decisions.</p>
<p><b><a target='_blank' href="http://pinoy.idolko.com/category/kathryn-bernardo">Kathryn Bernardo</a></b> is one of the famous child stars of ABS-CBN who also starred as the young Cielo in &#8220;It Might be You&#8221; and she also joined &#8220;Goin Bulilit&#8221; in 2005.

		<description><![CDATA[When Level 5 Motorsports owner-driver Scott Tucker is asked by the media whether he's proud of his incredible achievements in the motorsports industry, he usually answers something like, "I've worked really hard to get here, and I'm proud of what I've done." He might be proud, but you never get the idea that he's surprised. After all, it's no fluke that a 44-year-old private equity investor from Kansas City would decide to begin a professional motorsports career and actually excel at the sport to the point that he's now considered an elite race car driver. Professional racing is not for everyone; inside the car, temperatures are sweltering. The g-forces feel like you're flying a plane. At triple-digit speeds, the slightest move off-balance could send you into the boards or worse, another driver. So although the rest of the world sees Tucker take the podium race after race, what they don't see is the amount of preparation required for just one race, much less races in all five series Tucker entered this season. <a href="http://bandrising.com/2011/10/16/the-making-of-an-athlete-scott-tucker-is-disciplined-and-focused/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="KonaBody"><p>When Level 5 Motorsports owner-driver Scott Tucker is asked by the media whether he&#8217;s proud of his incredible achievements in the motorsports industry, he usually answers something like, &#8220;I&#8217;ve worked really hard to get here, and I&#8217;m proud of what I&#8217;ve done.&#8221; He might be proud, but you never get the idea that he&#8217;s surprised. After all, it&#8217;s no fluke that a 44-year-old private equity investor from Kansas City would decide to begin a professional motorsports career and actually excel at the sport to the point that he&#8217;s now considered an elite race car driver. Professional racing is not for everyone; inside the car, temperatures are sweltering. The g-forces feel like you&#8217;re flying a plane. At triple-digit speeds, the slightest move off-balance could send you into the boards or worse, another driver. So although the rest of the world sees Tucker take the podium race after race, what they don&#8217;t see is the amount of preparation required for just one race, much less races in all five series Tucker entered this season.</p>
<p>Just this year, Tucker has taken the podium at numerous race tracks, including Road America at the Sports Car Club of America National Championship Runoffs-his third consecutive win there-Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway most recently at American Le Mans Series Monterey, and at Road Atlanta for Petit Le Mans. Each of these races is an endurance race; none of Tucker&#8217;s ALMS or Intercontinental Le Mans Cup series races were less than 6 hours, and most were in the 10-12-hour range. With teams of drivers taking single or double shifts sometimes three hours at a time, each driver must be in impeccable physical shape. The amount of concentration a driver must maintain for extended periods of time is challenged by high temperatures and the need to keep the body completely balanced in order to control the car. Tucker has said he loses seven pounds every race. </p>
<p>When he first set out in the professional motorsports world, Tucker was driving in the Ferrari Challenge series and the SCCA, in Grand-Ams and Ferraris. But he always had his eye on the Le Mans Prototypes series, the ALMS and the ILMC, cars built for speed and racing. With his goal set to make an appearance at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in France, Tucker began the physical regimen that would be the foundation for a successful Le Mans debut in 2010. Tucker woke up at 4:30 a.m., before the sun, to put in an hour of cardiovascular exercise followed by core and flexibility workouts with a trainer. During any given race, a driver might face elevation changes, quick right and left turns and bumpy tracks, as well as the challenge of maneuvering among and around other drivers on the track. Diet and sleep regimens are also key to fitness, but none of these elements come easy. Most recently, at Petit Le Mans, Tucker and his team had just received a brand new car that they&#8217;d never tested before. They had the testing/qualifying week prior to Petit to orient themselves with the car, make adjustments for driver accommodation, and deliver quality qualifying performances. The entire team was on the track until 2 a.m. several nights that week.</p>
<p>At the 2010 Le Mans appearance, Tucker proved himself with an impressive qualifying time, but ultimately the team&#8217;s car crashed and didn&#8217;t finish the race. Tucker has spent the year-and-a-half since the 2010 Le Mans making very few mistakes on the race track and improving upon the quality of his performances. </p>
<p>Most recently clinching the LMP2 drivers championship along with co-driver Christophe Bouchut, Tucker joins his team aiming for an ILMC vice championship in races in Italy and Zhuhai, China. By keeping in top physical shape and maintaining unbelievable amounts of focus and discipline, Scott Tucker has worked his way to the top of elite motorsports. With 2011 all but in the rearview, eyes are on the 2012 season. If it goes as well or better than the past year, Tucker will likely not be surprised. It&#8217;s what he&#8217;s been working for all along.</p>
