Impeccable Technique: Vegas Beyond Undefeated

“Far as lyrics go:

They rocking recitals

It won’t stop until I’m on top with the title

Hustling no stopping the cycle, I’m shopping for rifles

I’m not for the idols

Fuck the twin towers dog, we on top of the Eiffel

Like live Pisa Pisa, eating a piece of pizza

You cant be were I be dog, you need a visa

Come on cheeb of reefer

Please believe it, I will squeeze and leave ya

All bullets they will heat and seek ya

Harlem world I’m a swell my town

You a clown you can tell by now

That I’m, I’m ready, I’m ready we coming for the title”

-Excellent word play from Cam’ron on “I’m Ready” …..sick sample too.

People are always coming up and asking me, how do you go to Las Vegas and night after night swoop girls and stay Undefeated. Great question. Is it the textblasters and huge rolodex of beautiful girls? Sure. Thick Bankroll? Obviously. Great Genetics? Absolutely. A Playboy bloodline going back to the Original Don Juan in Spain? Bet your life on it.

Recently, I was reading some Las Vegas Player advice by some pseudo “g” and he was claiming he gets girls 50% of the time he is in Vegas. I am thinking to myself 50%? That’s a horrible success rate, especially in Vegas. If my success rate was that poor, I wouldn’t even expect you to read this. But you should read this because my success rate is over 100%. Beyond Undefeated. Beyond Undefeated is when you have swooped more girls than you have spent nights in a city. There are certain does and don’ts you must apply if you want to be successful. Here are some Impeccable Techniques:

Avoid Local Mystery Suite Parties

These sound good on Paper, especially when pitched to you by some 21 year old Maybelline Queen Exotic Dancer. She will tell you something like “lets go up to this suite party on the 56th floor of the Bellagio”. Yeah sounds good on paper. The reality is that you will have to mix with Local Vegas Guy (And I don’t mean Alain Ducasse’s Mix or Mix Lounge in THE HOTEL either). Avoid local Vegas guy at all costs. Especially local vegas promoter guy. These guys are really fronters, scumbags and losers. Although these guys front like they have connections in Vegas, they usually just know other low-end bottom feeder types. The reason why these guys are so bad, I think, (And I don’t give them much thought) is because Vegas is an expensive place, (for most, for me its cheap) champagne drinking limo riding and all that. Local Vegas Promoter guy has to compete with that every night or else he gets mopped up by tourist guy. And I am not a mathmetician but when local vegas promoter guy is pulling down $27,500 a year, the life style just doesn’t add up. Plus he has to go to the salon to get his hair styled and needs to buy tons of cool T-shirts with writing on them to keep up the “cool, party guy act”. And as we know, those 3rd World Sweatshop made T-shirt aren’t cheap. So what Vegas Guy has to do is cut corners. Rip people off. Not to mention a rampant drug problem. This is all a recipe for disaster. Personally, I am more interested in Galatoire’s recipe for Gumbo or Turtle Soup. It’s important to have a good Running Partner with you in these situations, that way you can kick up your Gucci Loafers, spark up a smoke with a vintage Dunhill lighter, finish off your Goose and Soda, and check the time with a Vintage 1960’s Breitling Watch (to see if your in the kill zone for Gentleman’s Clubs) while your Running Partner ads a couple of KO’s to his record “on the cobbles”.

Utilize the “Ultra-Lounges”

In Vegas they call Lounges “Ultra-Lounges”. If you ask me, it sounds pretty gay. Regardless, they are functional spots to use as early night meeting points. They are real easy to get into and are easy to find someone. Also a good place to get back up leads as fly girls usually are to be found in Ultra-Lounges.

Don’t get blinded by the Light (and I don’t mean Andrew Sasson’s Club Light either)

Avoid going to Gentlemans Club’s on Friday and Saturday Night at 11 or 12. Even when you are Untouchable like Eliot Ness. I know you got the Custom-Made suit on, hand made shoes from England, and got on the best tie in your collection. Your Bullet-proof, Hard to Kill like Steven Segal. Still, avoid the the Gentlemans club early. You Will get “Pole-Axed”, “Jelly-Fished” and/or “Blinded out”. You don’t have to be an expert in Econometric Modeling to know that Gentleman’s Clubs are all about supply and demand. When there are more girls than guys in Gentleman’s Clubs its all systems go. When there are more guys than girls in a Gentleman’s Club the system is clogged. But if your dressed sharp like a porcupine in a Custom Suit by Duncan Quinn with side vents, blood red shirt by Dior Homme with silver and black cufflinks, no tie, pocket square by Thom Browne, Custom shoes by John Lobb on St. James Street or Edward Green on Jermyn Street in exotic skins (refined decadence) you have a more than decent shot at it.

Oysters

We have mentioned this before. But don’t start any night in Vegas without Oysters. A good portfolio would be some Cotuit Oysters (Massachusetts), Netarts Bay (Oregon), and some Winterpoints (Maine). (Skip the Hamma Hamma Oysters (Washington) and the Kumamoto (Oregon), they suck.) Caviar and Florida Stone Crabs also make for a nice well rounded opening salvo. RM Mooney, Daniel Boulud’s Daniel, Alain Ducasse’s Mix, even Aquanox are all worth an early stop by.

Girls in Street Clothes

Want to pull Fly Girls out of a Gentleman’s Club in less time than it takes you to finish two Goose and Sodas? (And I drink fast). Here is how you do it: Target Girls in street clothes. They are already on their way out the spot, so half the battle is already won. Last time in Vegas I walked in (dressed impeccably of course) to a great Gentleman’s Club and 17 minutes later left with three Fly girls, destination: my suite at Wynn Resorts (in the girls defense, the spot was filled with Regular Guy, and I was wearing an Ridiculous suit by Paul Smith, my track record is flawless, and my skin had a healthy flush from the spa earlier in the day, so I could hardly blame them for wanting to leave with me). Not bad for a Wednesday night.

Side Note:

Avoid Girls with “Property of (insert Biker Gang)” Tattoos. Weather it be The Hells Angels, The Banditos, The Pagans, The Rock Machine (now merged with The Banditos), The Outlaws or The Henchmen. In fact, it’s better to avoid Gentleman’s Clubs with Biker Gangs in general. Unless of course you are trying to find distribution for a large quantity on Crystal Meth, in that case, you found the right guys. You don’t want to get in the Crossfire of a Gang War and find out how good you are at ducking wrenches. I remember one time years back in Los Angeles, I was with a local beautiful Hollywood, prototype SuicideGirl/ Nightlife Princess and the Motorcycle Club in attendance didn’t take too kindly to me. Not sure why. But I do know, if it wasn’t for my Desert Eag and a cab with perfect timing I might have not had a Magical Night.

James “Lights Out” Toney

Partying in Las Vegas, even with Entering The Dragon, will get you in pretty bad physical shape over a few day period. Don’t be Vain about it or let it get you down. James “Lights Out” Toney, became one of the Greatest Boxers of his Generation and he did it not by being in great shape. He has always said, “Boxing is not a Bodybuilding Competition” (you remember a “chubby” Tim Witherspoon knocking out the Adonis Frank Bruno for the Heavyweight title, right?). Well, “Las Vegas is not a Bodybuilding Competition either”. Vegas is a GAME competition. (Well, maybe that Rehab Sunday pool party at the Hard Rock is a Bodybuilding Competition, but I have never been. The last place I want to be in Vegas in the summer time is at the Hard Rock pool with a bunch of personal trainer Guys from Arizona with Tribal Tattoos.) James Toney made it happen by being Tough, having tons of Heart, an Iron Chin, superb Counter Punching, a will to win, and lets face it: Impeccable Technique. Be a James Toney.

The Vegas Dance

No this isn’t some dance like The BankHead Bounce, The Harlem Shake, The Young Joc Motorcycle Dance, The Patty Duke, the Wrench or the Tango. Or even dope Breakdance moves like The Turtle, The Baby, Top Rock, Brooklyn Flare, Freezes, Windmills, Suicides (And I don’t mean SuicideGirls either) Headspins or Crazy Legs ill backspin in “Beat Street”. If you are like me, come 3am in Vegas, you will have plenty of options for Girls. Especially, if you follow The Blueprint for a Perfect Night in Vegas. Hold out for your best option. The best part about Vegas is that you have more time if you need it. Behind on the Score Cards after Twelve Rounds? Well, the great thing in Vegas is there is a Round 13. Hell, in Vegas you have as many rounds as you need to win the fight! No need to get jumpy and call it a night with the Ex-Sorority Girl in town from Ohio for a Bachelorette party who gave you her number. Hold out for something with some punch to it. For instance:

Girl Plus Friend

This is one of the most important techniques to Being Beyond Undefeated. It is a high risk move. But without Risk there cannot be Reward. To be a Top G, Top Pedigree, you need to embrace Risk. That’s why I trade Futures instead of Options. Unlimited Downside, but Unlimited Upside potential as well. So you have been stick and moving all night like Zab Judah, and you got a Fly Girl meeting you back at the Parasol Up bar ready to Kostya Tszyu her. Tell her to bring a Girlfriend. Leverage your position. Dame Sizzler style. When you get back to your Suite, have an In-Room Gymnastics Competition. Remember to Score the Girls on difficulty, form, originality AND artistry. Make sure you get a couple of Nadia Comaneci’s……. The Rest is Up to You……..

As much as people say love ends when you start having conditionals, i think otherwise. Actually, love ends when you stop having conditionals. Does it make sense, think about it. Once you stop meeting your partners conditions, like being home in time and doing things they like, the love between the two of you flies out of the window. Now isn’t that conditional love? The only love that we can say is never conditional is parental love. No matter what your child does, you will still love it. Unconditional love is one where you love someone without looking at the things they do, where they come from or how they look like. Only then can you say to have unconditional love.

Many people before they get into a relationship make a list of things they would want their partner to have. For the girls the list could include, a car, a house, a nice phone and handsome and all this should be in one person. Without this, they cannot love the person. Without realizing it, they have already put conditions for their love and it ceases being unconditional love. They would rather be with a rich handsome guy who has houses all over the country than be with a poor man. Though the poor guy would have loved them better they cannot be with him. There are some ladies who say they would rather be in a limousine and cry rather than be with a poor man and smiling. Who wants to worry about money anyway, they reason. For the men, they want a submissive person, intelligent and beautiful. Isn’t that conditional?

It is also generally believe that a poor person will more likely cheat on you than a rich guy. This is because most rich guys are too busy to have multiple relationship while the poor guy has all the time in the world. They would also make passes at women just to prove their manhood. With the many conditions that we give our partners, regarding the time they should get home and what they should do and not do we cannot say unconditional love exists. We might hide behind being concerned but that is not being concerned. The question is, if you are simply concerned about the person, why then do you get mad with them to the extent of ending the relationship? If you loved the person so much and what you had for them is unconditional love you wouldn’t want to terminate the relationship for whatever reason.

There must be conditional love in every relationship so that we all live in harmony. However much you would want to argue there should be no conditions in love think about it this way. If you loved someone unconditionally, the person might end up abusing the relationship. With unconditional love, a lot of things could go wrong. People would behave in any way they want knowing too well that, no matter what they did. You will still love them. Go right ahead, have a conditional love with no apology what so ever.

The Divine Heart

By Joe Hurley

The human heart is amazing in its ability to experience love, wisdom, compassion and caring. The human heart is amazing in its ability to experience sadness, disappointment and sorrow.

Living life with a full and open heart means opening to it all and accepting the passion, mystery and flow of life. Living with a full and open heart also means accepting each powerful impact when the flow of life hits hard.

What happens when the passion of life brings sadness, sorrow and disappointment beyond the human ability to tolerate? Patterns of reaction, defensive protection, and other survival instincts take over and there is separation from the heavy and broken heart. Unfortunately there is also separation from the deep love, joy, and caring for life. And so life has been.

But times are changing. New energies have been entering the physical plane in amazing ways. These energies continue to bring a higher vibrational divine flow into all energy systems. Each human heart now has the opportunity to open to this divine flow. Each human heart now has the opportunity to experience this higher vibrational pulse. Each human heart now has the opportunity to experience a unique connection to this amazing source of love and wisdom.

The divine heart’s higher frequency is beyond the mental fields of dualistic thought. The divine heart’s frequency is beyond the vibration of good or bad, right or wrong, fair or unfair, just or unjust. The divine heart is simply pure divine energy. The divine heart is simply pure divine love, pure divine wisdom, pure divine joy, pure divine grace, pure divine peace, and pure divine essence.

Has life hit you hard? Have you shut off and gone into a way of life that protects and deflects the love, wisdom, and joy of your heart, so you can survive?

Are you ready to be free?

You can open your heart and re-experience the amazing levels of human love, wisdom, and joy, that you know are inside you. You can open up to the real you, to the divine you, now.

It is time.

Open the human heart and hear it, sense it, feel it. Allow the Holy Spirit to fill you. Ask divine grace to support you. Embrace pure divine wisdom as it guides you. Become one with the divine love that is you.

The fight and struggle are over. You are freedom. You are a divine presence in everyday life. You are a divine presence within the context of it all. You are a divine presence in the center of all that is.

You are divine life. Embrace the divine flow. Embrace the divine you.

Welcome home.

Dieting among teenagers has increased at alarming rates. They are at a critical developmental stage of

their lives and depriving their bodies of the essential nutrients could cause more harm than good. The problem is the type of diets that our teenagers are engaging in. Fad diets are on the rise within the teenage community; these diets are designed as the quick fix and their target audience is the impatient. Fad diets could lead your teenager to a serious eating disorder. In the event that a diet is warranted a more healthy approach needs to be taken.

 

Female teenagers are more likely to develop an eating disorder than their male counterparts because they are more body image conscious. Whenever they turn on the television or open a magazine they are confronted with the “Barbie Doll” look . They start to feel inadequate because they don’t possess that same look, which is an unattainable look in most cases. It is nearly impossible for us to monitor our teenagers eating habits so we need to be watchful of the signs that an eating disorder is developing.

 

One of the worst things that we can do is confront the issue aggressively. This is only going to cause them to act out and in some cases make the situation worse. During meal time watch how they are or are not eating. Encourage open dialog during mealtime on any subject being careful to stay away from the dieting subject. Try to have your teenager eat more slowly and by all means no phones or television during dinner. We want to have their attention and avoid distractions.

 

Eating disorders can be overcome and your support is necessary. Proper nutrition ,exercise, and consuming one ounce of water for every pound that they weigh a day will get them back on track. Healthy eating, communication, and love will do wonders. Teenage dieting doesn’t have to be problem dieting.

Learning a foreign language is an interesting experience. It’s not something to be taken lightly. There are many hours of study, many days of no apparent progress and many reasons to stop.

People attempt to learn languages, fail, and then attempt again with the idea that the process will eventually change. Perhaps, it wasn’t the right time, too much going on or the teacher was bad.

I learned Spanish at age 22 and know what obstacles await adult learners. The most common are frustration and despair.

Frustration because of a perceived lack of progress and despair because of a lack of support and time. Many students have given up because one of these two reasons.

The good news is these can be handled easily once you become aware of their role in your language learning. You can recognize them when they strike and move on without missing a beat.

Here are three things to be aware of:

#1 - Don’t get down when things don’t happen quickly. You need to realize that many things are happening on the inside that you’re not aware of. You just don’t see the progress being made.

Here’s an example. When you plant a seed in a pot, you need to water it and give it sunshine. If you look at the soil after 2 days you won’t see any progress. If you look after a week, you won’t see any progress. If you look after 9 days you still won’t see any progress.

If you decide to stop watering and giving sunshine because nothing is happening, you will kill the plant.

Yet, all that time, the roots were growing and the seed was expanding below the soil. The same is happening in your brain as your learning the language.

#2 - Don’t listen to naysayers. There will be many people that see you studying and tell you that it’s “too difficult”, “too late”, you’re “too old” to learn a foreign language.

If you’re not careful, you’ll start to believe them and stop “watering the plant.” You need a support group, even if it’s one person, who will remind you that you’re on the right track.

#3 - Don’t get stressed over time limitations. Obviously, you would love to have more time to dedicate to studying the language. But, with family commitments, job commitments and all the rest, you have to work with what you have.

There are numerous ways to learn on the run, without adding extra hours to your day. Use the time you commute to study verbs or listen to tapes. Talk to yourself in the shower. You don’t need a lot of time each day to study. Just enough to keep the fires burning.

Remember, for language learning, 15 minutes a day for a week is much better than an hour twice a week.

You can make it to the finish line if you are aware of the pitfalls that await. Just make the right decisions along the way and you’ll arrive before you know it.

As long as you resist being your natural, balanced self, you will not attract harmonious, long lasting, or healthy relationships. Once you become true to yourself, you automatically attract the right person to you. You can access and balance own unique vibration of energy to reveal your innate power and beauty within to attract the type of relationships you desire.

You Broadcast Who You Are and What You Want

What you think about, you attract. When you are cautious and hold back your true self, you attract similar situations to you. If you think you are not sufficient, not wise enough, or not powerful enough to create the reality you truly desire, you will attract a representation of your own doubt in yourself.

Attract Balanced Relationships

If you look for someone else to complete you, you attract an incomplete relationship. What you create is a partnership made up of two half people, that will not satisfy either person.

When you feel complete and sufficient, you set up a vibration that attracts those with the similar qualities. When you reflect the type of vibrations you choose to attract in someone else, you will be seen and recognized by Mr./Ms. Wonderful.

Re-ignite Your Attractive Power

Balance your own male or female energy to re-ignite your attractive power. When you flood your body with your own female or male energy, your body automatically seeks its original perfect balance. With practice your system will stay in balance effortlessly. This way you can experience your ultimate sexual and creative power..

Become Clear and Certain About What You Want

Connecting with your innate power and sexual force spawns a new level of self certainty. Your confidence will soar and you may find yourself achieving goals you long forgot. As you get neutral to foreign energies that compete for space in your body, you become clear, grounded and focused. Follow Your Own Path

Life is a journey, and you have everything you need to create the most desirable, enjoyable and fulfilling journey for yourself. Take steps each day to reach your life goals, and you will not only be amazed at how well you will achieve them, but at how enjoyable and stress-free the journey will be.

Increase Your Natural Sex Appeal with Visualization

Everyone has both male and female energies. Sometimes someone from your past has turned off your male or female energy. It affects how and what you attract in your life.

Practice the following visualization exercise and you will increase the amount of female or male energy flowing in your body. This will increase your sex appeal and attraction.

1. Close your eyes, but stay focused.

2. Visualize yourself sitting in a control room in the center of your head where you have command of your entire being.

3. In your mind’s eye, visualize a scale or gauge from 0-100% that represents your current male or female energy running in your body. Notice the current reading of your meter. Don’t judge it. Just note what you see.

4. Imagine increasing this energy by slowly raising your gauge to 100%.

5. Simultaneously, allow the energy from the sexual center, approximately 2″ below your navel, begin to move throughout the entire body. Breath in from the navel and imagine the energy flowing upwards through the torso, down the arms, and up into the head. Allow this sexual energy flow out the top of your head like a fountain. Let the energy flow down to your feet and bring the energy up through the bottoms of your feet, into the legs creating a cycle of your own flowing feminine or masculine energy.

6. Choose a color for this energy flowing through the body as you push the needle on the gauge to 100%.

7. Allow yourself to experience your powerful male or female energy flushing out foreign energies from your body. Let this energy flow for about 5 minutes. Notice how your body feels.

8. Allow your system to adjust to a level where you feel most comfortable.

Your Attractive Force Within IS Powerful

Your renewed personal power will revolutionize your relationships. When you run your own sexual energy you increase self-confidence, boost your attractiveness and create balance.

People around you will notice a positive change in you. They may not put their finger on it but you will know why they respond favorably. Practice this energy technique for 20-30 days and the results will astonish you.

It’s never easy parenting an impulsive child.  No matter how you love him or her, the endless frustration of coping with erratic and ill-considered actions is always with you.  Where another child might stop and think before trying to climb a bookshelf…your child climbs now, thinks later.  Dropping a full glass on the floor just to see what happens?  A child with poor impulse control will barely hesitate, and will not be prepared for accepting the consequences.

But treating impulsive behaviors is a challenge.  Too many doctors and educators have been falling back on the “easy” option of using strong prescription medications.  Prescription medications can’t teach a child good judgment, and they can interfere with his or her ability to learn to read and stunt growth and development.

When you’re parenting an impulsive child the question is, “Which is more important: controlling the behaviors now, or helping the child learn how to control his behavior now and in the future?”

Don’t despair because there are options.  Many people parenting an impulsive child choose to rough it out and avoid prescription medications entirely, relying on good home teaching and supervision, behavior therapy, and natural alternative medication.  Others choose to work with their doctors to design personal programs based on a similar combination of non-prescription approaches with a prescription element added at a much lower level.

Then there are those who find that treating impulsive behaviors in a particular child will still demand prescription medications at a higher level, but the side effects can be reduced by using natural alternative medications.

You are the one parenting an impulsive child.  You are the one close enough to know the costs and benefits of treating impulsive behaviors with harsh medications that on some levels may make your child worse.  Therefore you must be part of the decision making team.  Take time to learn about all the options.

Behavior therapy with a strong follow-through of in-home discipline and environment control is a great place for almost any impulsive child to start.  Instead of simply flattening the impulsive response, they teach a child to recognize it, stop, and think things through before acting.  The skills developed will serve your child forever.

Similarly, homeopathic medications like Hyoscyamus, Arsen Iod, Verta Alb and Tuberculinum offered in low solutions calm the brain and increase your child’s ability to focus and make good decisions.  Where prescription medications are the “elephant gun” approach to stopping impulsivity, homeopathic solutions and formulas are a gentle, but more effective solution for treating impulsive behaviors.

Parenting an impulsive child isn’t ever going to be simple or easy.  Making the right choices will make a massive difference in your child’s life, now and in the future, though.  Take the time to look into the various alternatives open to you.  By combining treatments with the knowledge and guidance of your doctor you can come up with the best possible program for you and your child.

How 7 Female Stars Stay Gorgeous

Did you catch that tabloid that exposed the stars without their makeup? Even so, you have to agree, from the neck on down celebrities always look fabulous. Whether appearing in television or films or strutting down the red carpet during movie premiers and awards, they make us wonder why they are so blessed in the looks department. How do they do it?

The truth is, it takes a lot of commitment and money to look the way they do, and being the public figures that they are, they cannot afford to slack off when it comes to taking care of their physical appearances.

Let’s be real, the way they look is part of their business. They are a product being marketed so they have to look, well, worth paying the ticket price for. Aside from the clothes on the outside, the hair and the makeup from the neck up, celebrities have to take good care of their bodies. It’s a total package from head to Gucci clad feet.

So, what do they know that you don’t? It is no surprise that these stars have found their own secrets when it comes to staying fit and gorgeous. Their health agenda can range from extreme workouts to well-planned meals. Would you like to know their secrets in staying absolutely sexy? Here are some of the diet and exercise secrets of seven women celebrities.

1. Jennifer Aniston

The star of the phenomenal television show Friends not only mesmerized audiences with her adorable comic sense and her famous hairstyle, she is also known for having one of the sexiest bodies in Hollywood. She continues to appear on countless magazine covers and in other advertising. To stay trim, Jennifer follows the 40:30:30 diet method. The diet consists of:

40% Low glycemic carbohydrates - Foods such as beans, fruits and vegetables, legumes

30% lean proteins - Tofu, fish, chicken, turkey, beef and low fat dairy products

30% essential fats - nuts and seeds, fish, and olive-based oils

It is essential that every meal should contain macro nutrients to attain the balance of hormones and maximum weight loss. If you don’t know what macro nutrients are, do a web search. Suffice to say these are important food groups to add to your diet.

2. Kate Hudson

The gorgeous daughter of actress Goldie Hawn gained 60 pounds during her pregnancy, which she needed to shed quickly before commencing on her next film. From her previous eating plan, she switched to a higher protein diet. She consumed high protein meals in smaller portions, and she combined this diet with an exercise program that includes weight training and cardiovascular workouts. The high protein intake is a trick employed by male weight lifters to shed fat and build muscle.

Her post pregnancy figure garnered some constructive criticism from friends and industry types which may have given her incentive to shed all that baby weight in only four months! In the process she gained rippled abs that is the envy of many in Hollywood and that’s just counting the men!

3. Oprah Winfrey

As one of the most successful talk-show hosts in the world, there is no question that Oprah has an ongoing battle to maintain her physical appearance for her millions of fans. It’s no secret that Oprah is known as one of those celebrities who are constantly battling weight gain. If you are a regular viewer, you have seen the shift in weight over the years. She has recently toned up her figure and has never looked more fit.

She combines a regular exercise regime with a solid diet plan. Oprah works out five days a week, spending 30 minutes on the treadmill and doing free weights. Her eating plan consists of legumes, fish, nuts, fruits and vegetables, chicken and dairy products that are low-fat. She limits her consumption of white sugar and flour. Oprah also credits her trim figure to her habit of not eating anything after seven in the evening.

4. Gwyneth Paltrow

A lot of people may find it hard to believe that the perpetually slim Academy award-winning actress actually needs to diet. Gwyneth actually follows a healthy eating plan that resembles Oprah’s, avoiding sugar and white flour. She usually follows a macrobiotic diet, eating foods like vegetables, brown rice, and lean meat. She also eliminated products containing dairy from her diet, and does yoga every day.

5. Madonna

The pop star known as the Material Girl has always flaunted her body as one of the tools of her business. To stay looking sexy, she has become a true fitness groupie over the years. She keeps herself in tip-top shape by practicing Ashtanga Yoga, and follows a strict diet that mostly shuns junk foods. She adopted a macrobiotic eating plan that includes organic foods rich in lean protein.

6. Claudia Schiffer

The bodacious German super model eats salad and steamed vegetables for dinner and eats only fruits before the afternoon. While on locations, she prefers to eat black grapes and drinks tomato juice and herbal tea. No where do we find meat on the menu but that’s not to say she doesn’t eat meat, fish, or poultry occasionally.

7. Christie Brinkley

Longtime super model Christie Brinkley maintains her all-American good looks by being a vegetarian. She does not keep junk foods of any kind inside her home to avoid being tempted beyond what she can handle. She snacks on sweet potatoes in place of candy bars, and she adopts a liquid juice diet when she needs to slim down fast.

In closing, take heart, celebrities are just like you and me. If you saw them on the street or in the supermarket they obviously wouldn’t be looking like they are ready to walk the red carpet at that moment. Chances are you might not even recognize them because you are not expecting them to look average.

Yes, they need to maintain their figures more than anyone else because they are constantly in the public eye but you also can have a celebrity-like body by following the diet and fitness plans of the stars. With the right clothes, hair and makeup, you can look red-carpet worthy too!

There are many children who have a favorite type of toy. This can be teddy bears, Cabbage Patch dolls, Care Bears, soft dogs and cats. They can even be the world famous Barbie and Ken dolls. These two dolls are well known by many people and not just children. While these two dolls are mainly used as toys by little girls, collectors will not hesitate to buy either of these should they come across one.

The Barbie and Ken dolls are made so that they resemble adults. The many different careers and styles of the years have an impact on the lives of these dolls. Today you will find that the world of Barbie has many accessories and items that can be used with either of these two dolls. There are also companion dolls that are of different ethnic backgrounds.

The original Barbie doll was based on a German doll called Bild Lilli. Once Mattel made Barbie and acquired the rights to the German doll, Lilli was soon discontinued. Barbie was then officially given the name Barbara Millicent Roberts. Ken was named Ken Carson. The names for the Barbie and Ken dolls were taken from the names of Ruth Handler, who was the original designer of Barbie.

While Barbie made her debut into the toy market during 1959 at the International Toy Fair in New York, Ken made his appearance during 1961. From 1961 Barbie and Ken have been considered as a couple. Their relationship was a on and off relationship. After a 43 year relationship, the Mattel Company decided that it was time for the two dolls relationship to end.

This separation lasted for about 2 years. In 2006 Barbie and Ken were made into a couple again. While the reason for the separation of the famous couple is probably due to a decline in sales, the reason they are a couple is that probably Barbie doesn’t sound complete without Ken.

While the popularity of both Barbie and Ken is attributed to the clothes and accessories you can buy, the look of the dolls may also play an important role. For many young girls Barbies looks are in keeping with the careers that she keeps getting. This fashion conscious doll has gone from being merely a fashion doll to a pilot, doctor, airline stewardess, astronaut, rock star to even being a fairy tale princess or mermaid.

Now while Barbie and Ken are just toys they are iconic figures. The looks and careers you see these dolls appearing in are an indication of how toy fashions can change. The one constant perhaps is the imagination and the endless hours of fun that a girl can derive from just playing with her Barbie and Ken dolls.
