| getting your child into modeling and acting: Crime H. Thomas Milhorn, 2004-12 This book is an overview of the United States legal system, with a brief introduction to Islamic and International law. The book is divided into six parts. Part I (The Legal System and Crime) introduces the U.S. legal system and the classification of crime. Part II (White Collar Crime) covers cybercrime, crime the old fashioned way, and healthcare fraud. Part III (Homicide) deals with simple murder, serial murder, mass and spree murder; and assassination. Part IV (Special Groups) covers the mafia; the family; the medical, legal, and teaching professions; the religion profession; celebrities; and stupid criminals. Part V (On the Edge) deals with topics I consider to be a bit strange; that is, quackery, innovative defenses, and dangerous cults. And finally, Part VI (Residue) discusses what is left ... capital punishment and crimes against humanity, including terrorism. Throughout the book, to illustrate points, I have used over 300 cases of actual crimes. The names of the people and the facts of the cases used in the discussions of these crimes are taken directly from referenced news reports. The subtitle, Computer Viruses to Twin Towers, reflects the scope of the book; that is, from computer viruses, which cause only aggravation or loss of money, to the deadly terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on September 11, 2001 that snuffed out almost 3000 lives. |

| getting your child into modeling and acting: The Seven Pearls of Financial Wisdom Carol Pepper, Camilla Webster, 2012-04-24 By two leading financial experts: an essential guide for every woman who wants to build, preserve, and enjoy her wealth. Women control more than half of all wealth in the U .S., and in 2011 held the majority of jobs in the workforce. As women's earnings, freedom and influence increase, the old sequential patterns of education, marriage, motherhood, and retirement no longer apply. A woman may set up a foundation in her twenties—when she sells her first company, support her family as the primary breadwinner in her thirties, start a new career in her sixties and remarry in her seventies. Today women cycle repeatedly but not in any traditional order through these stages: wealth building, romance and marriage, motherhood, power, crisis and loss, retirement, legacy building. In The Seven Pearls of Financial Wisdom, experts Carol Pepper and Camilla Webster offer women one invaluable pearl of wisdom for each of these key areas, helping them move beyond outdated financial-planning ideas to enjoy their power, transforming both their money and their lives. |

It is simply a model for interacting with them in a way that: -Keeps you from getting caught in a power struggle that puts you at odds with children -Shows you how to tap into your children’s internal motivation to hear what you have to say as valuable -Reinforces the values and qualities that you want them to have as adults This book goes a long way to establishing the sort of relationship where children actually hear what their parents are saying, and even look to them for help and guidance! |

| getting your child into modeling and acting: Anxious Kids, Anxious Parents Lynn Lyons, Reid Wilson, 2013-09-03 With anxiety at epidemic levels among our children, Anxious Kids, Anxious Parents offers a contrarian yet effective approach to help children and teens push through their fears, worries, and phobias to ultimately become more resilient, independent, and happy. How do you manage a child who gets stomachaches every school morning, who refuses after-school activities, or who is trapped in the bathroom with compulsive washing? Children like these put a palpable strain on frustrated, helpless parents and teachers. And there is no escaping the problem: One in every five kids suffers from a diagnosable anxiety disorder. Unfortunately, when parents or professionals offer help in traditional ways, they unknowingly reinforce a child's worry and avoidance. From their success with hundreds of organizations, schools, and families, Reid Wilson, PhD, and Lynn Lyons, LICSW, share their unconventional approach of stepping into uncertainty in a way that is currently unfamiliar but infinitely successful. Using current research and contemporary examples, the book exposes the most common anxiety-enhancing patterns—including reassurance, accommodation, avoidance, and poor problem solving—and offers a concrete plan with 7 key principles that foster change. And, since new research reveals how anxious parents typically make for anxious children, the book offers exercises and techniques to change both the children's and the parental patterns of thinking and behaving. This book challenges our basic instincts about how to help fearful kids and will serve as the antidote for an anxious nation of kids and their parents. |

| getting your child into modeling and acting: Rising Stars Toni Shelton, 2005-06 COMMERCIAL ACTING OPPORTUNITIES There are two types of commercials, which frequently cast models. Non-air commercials are those not intended for broadcast use, such as non-broadcast audience reaction commercials, copy testing, or client demos. Photomatics are one specific type of client demo - they use a still photographer and the images are converted to video using special techniques to give the feeling of movement, as in ordinary film. Non-air commercials give new actor-models a chance to see what it takes to produce a commercial and provide valuable experience to add to acting resumes. The second type of commercial involves real movement, and may have speaking or non-speaking parts. Models cast for this type of commercial may find themselves modeling clothes, advertising a store, selling a mattress, buying a car, opening a bank account, eating an ice cream - you name it. Speaking parts usually require voice training. Be advised having a regional accent will severely limit your speaking parts. Voice training will be necessary if you are serious about your acting career. A principal part is the position held by the featured actor in a commercial. That actor is the representative of the product the consumer will focus on, and the part may be either speaking or non-speaking. Extra parts, which may be speaking or non-speaking, are held by people who are strategically placed to fill unwanted space in a commercial. Being an extra is a terrific opportunity to learn the inside workings of commercial production without the stress of being a principal. It allows you to observe what is required of the principal actors, the creative process involved, and the roles of the production team. TRAINING Regardless of what country of market the commercials you wish to audition for are aimed at, you must have proper training. To learn more about the commercial acting business, take some on-camera commercial acting class. You'll also learn techniques for psyching yourself up for auditions and overcoming intimidating directors.. Acting in T.V. commercials is lots of fun. It can also be very demanding - doing take after take until it is exactly right. Commercial acting can be a regular and lucrative source of income, you might begin to aspire to higher things. If you develop serious theatrical ambitions, you would be well advised to undertake proper training at a reputable drama school. It is rare to find a theatre professional who gives much credit for commercial acting experience. It just isn't in the same league. The transition between modeling and acting, you face many obstacles. The simple fact is that models are not taken as seriously as classically trained actors, and as a result they must work even harder to gain respect. Any model who wants to act is to immerse themselves into classes. This is not a short term commitment of taking just one class; you need many. A cold-reading class is beneficial because copy is often not available before an audition. I also urge my models to take improvisation acting classes. These teach you how to be free, less inhibited, and not afraid to do something silly. Finally, get a monologue under way and audition for theatre. Models need to separate the two worlds of acting and modeling. Use your composite for modeling and your headshot and resume for acting. Before professional and come prepared to an audition. This means to be on time, know your lines wear the appropriate clothing, listen, take direction, and be self-confident. If you treat acting like a business and treat it with the same enthusiasm and drive you do modeling, success should surely follow. NETWORKING Finally, don't overlook one of the most important resources that an actor can have. This business is about people and abo |

| getting your child into modeling and acting: Raising Talent - How to Fast-Track Potential into Performance Tim Goodenough, 2012-09-29 High performance in general, and in sport in particular, is becoming more and more competitive. Today's parents and the coaches of talented youngsters face many challenges. They know intuitively that they need to do something to help their children achieve their full potential - but what is that something? Executive coaches Tim Goodenough and Michael Cooper are highly experienced at working with people who want to develop that elusive balance between work and life, while at the same time trying to develop their potential to get the most out of both. They also work in the world of high performance sport. In Raising Talent they set about discovering, understanding and learning what the key dynamics and challenges are for developing talent, especially that of children. As their thinking became sharper and their principles better defined, several models and techniques emerged and this book explains their context and how they may apply in your home. They provide an accessible and quality self-coaching programme and a solid foundation of high performance theory for fast-tracking development.
