10+ Child Stars After They Hit Puberty: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

The life of a child star isn’t easy. People often get so fixated on the child version that they lose sight of the fact that this is still a real person who is going to get older, go through puberty, and probably not be as cute anymore as they were as a kid. A lot of child stars have been negatively affected by these unrealistic expectations, with several notable examples turning to a life of substance abuse when they just couldn’t grow beyond the persona that first made them famous.

Below are 13 actors and actresses you loved when they were kids and since then…well, you’ve probably wondered, “What the heck happened to them?” at least once.

Answer? Puberty. Puberty happened to them, as it does to everyone, but the average guy or gal doesn’t have to go through it and still land roles in Hollywood.

The Medals for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics Will Made Entirely from Recycled Metal

Are you a fan of the Olympics? The long wait is almost over, because the Olympic games are coming back in 2020! The games, which will be held in Japan, are made even more special by a new sustainability initiative, thanks to which every single medal at the Tokyo Olympics will be made from recycled metal.

The plan has been in place since 2017, when organizers in Japan began collecting electronic waste for the project. People donated old smartphones, laptops, and other items. Businesses and industry organizations also contributed.

Now, Olympic organizers say they expect to reach their targets in March. As of November, they’d collected 47,488 tons of discarded electronic devices.

“It is estimated that the remaining amounts of metal required to manufacture all Olympic and Paralympic medals can be extracted from the devices already donated,” the organizers said in a statement.

In total, they’ll collect 30.3 kilograms of gold, 4100 kilograms of silver, and 2700 kilograms of bronze.

It’s a major move towards sustainability for the Olympics. In 2016, only 30% of the silver and bronze in medals came from recycled materials.

Later this year, Tokyo 2020 will release the official designs for the medals.

This Chart Shows the Fastest Growing Jobs in Every State

A friendly word of advice: if you live in California or Hawaii, you may want to consider a career in installing solar panels. Alternatively, if your home state is Colorado, Texas, Nebraska, or Iowa, a job servicing wind turbines might be your best bet.

Yahoo! Finance put together this handy infographic, using statistics compiled by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, to show what is the fastest growing job in each state in the country.

The results are pretty interesting and represent a shift in how many Americans work. As mentioned earlier, solar panel installer jobs are the fastest growing in California and Hawaii, but that’s also the case in several other states in different parts of the country, including Florida, North Carolina, New Jersey, and Minnesota. Here is how the western United States and Alaska and Hawaii shapes up.

Another rising occupation is statistician. The median annual salary for a statistician in the U.S. is $84,060 and these number crunchers are the fastest growing occupation in Michigan, Illinois, Kentucky, and Connecticut.

As we move east through the Midwest and towards the Atlantic, here are the fastest growing occupations.

The East Coast is a unique mix of positions, including the aforementioned solar panel installer in two states, biomedical engineer in Maine, costume attendant in Georgia (because of the thriving film/TV industry), and  gambling industry worker in New York.

Let’s hope the economy keeps on revving along and people in all industries in America continue to move up the ladder.
