COMPOSITION COUNTS Whether shooting digital or film, the rules of good composition remain the same. Somewhere in your picture there should be a focal point. This can mean arranging your shot to include a blooming branch in the foreground, a large rock in the middle ground, or a dramatic sky in the background. Don’t make the common mistake of assuming that, simply because a scene looks breathtaking to the eye, it will work as a photograph....
Are you even familiar with the name “Fanta Bility?” You should be. She should be a household name. Her shooting death, in an outrageous and illegal hail of gunfire from at least three police officers, Devon Smith, 33, Sean Dolan, 25, and Brian Devaney, 41, on August 27th, 2021, is about as senseless of a police murder as I’ve ever seen in my life. I feel outrageous even saying what I am about to say, but Fanta, of course, was unarmed, non-violent, and was not breaking any laws when she was shot and killed....
While fans would love if A Nightmare On Elm Street got a reboot of some kind, it’s interesting to imagine if the film could be inspired by Scream (2022), which is a cool and exciting requel. RELATED: Scream 2022 Proves Not All Horror Needs To Be Elevated There are a few things wrong with the latest Scream movie, as Billy Loomis is too sympathetic and Billy’s ghost in Scream (2022) is too cheesy to take seriously....
Since then, rules regarding the flexing of arm have gone sundry changes. It is a no-brainer to state that there has been a lot of misconceptions about the biomechanics associated with bowling. The rules were inconsistent and were not thorough, paving the way for a number of tweaks. Every time some light was shedded on a new finding, the International Cricket Council (ICC) shredded its figments and modified the law....
But does anyone know what is the right age for kids to own a smartphone? All parents are seeking answers to this question. The pandemic had an adverse effect on kids as they spent most of their time using the phone and not being productive or less productive. Common Sense Media shared a report which stated that the use of the screen for teens and tweens has grown immensely by 17%....
Let’s take a look at the issue of peanut allergy, the frequency of this problem, the seriousness of exposure to children at risk, and then the arguments both for and against allowing peanuts in schools. The Issue of Peanuts in Schools Peanut allergy has become more prevalent over the last several decades and is one of the most common food allergies in school-aged children. Allergic reactions to peanuts can be severe, even potentially life-threatening....
Tagovailoa played in a loss to LSU last week in his first game back from surgery on an injured ankle. Playing a Mississippi State team Saturday that has a losing record, there was speculation Tagovailoa might not play at all this week, or even next week at home against Western Carolina, which would give him time to heel for the Nov. 30 game at Auburn. None of that happened, though, as Tagovailoa started Saturday’s game in Starkville, Mississippi....
USTs aren’t for everyone and can be more expensive, but they also offer the most effortless installation and best picture qualities of all projectors available today. Are Short Throw Projectors Better? Short throw projectors operate at a much-reduced distance to the projector screen, using mechanical lens shift and keystone correction to project an image at an extreme angle without impacting the visual quality. Ultra-short throw projectors can deliver just as good a picture as many of the best traditional projectors....
Bennett, the fourth overall selection, may have been injured in the preseason; he last played against Vancouver on Sept. 26. Or he may have been hurt as far back as last season, which could explain why he couldn’t do a single pull-up at the NHL combine last spring. “I guess, really, I wanted to play and I’d do anything to make the team and to play in the NHL this year,” Bennett told reporters Tuesday....

India have already lost the ODI series in the first three matches. Australia have taken a unmovable lead of 0-3 in the five-match series. But the Indian batting order produced three 295 plus runs innings already. They have been on a run-scoring spree, comfortably playing on the front foot. Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane and recently Shikhar Dhawan all have been among the top performers. Rohit has two hundreds to his name while Kohli has one....
At the break, Shaw was batting on 52 off 42 balls with eight fours and a six, and had Cheteshwar Pujara for company. West Indies were all out for 311 in their first innings, adding only 16 runs to their overnight total, as Yadav recorded a career-best figures of six for 88, polishing off the tail in only 6.4 overs in the morning. Roston Chase (106 off 189 balls), however, deservedly completed his fourth Test hundred before the innings wrapped up....
United left-back Shaw scooped both trophies at the club’s end-of-season awards ceremony on Thursday as star team-mate Paul Pogba missed out. In a difficult season for United – who are set to finish sixth in the Premier League and miss out on Champions League qualification – Shaw stood out among his peers and fans at Old Trafford. Shaw has made 40 appearances in all competitions heading into Sunday’s season finale against Cardiff City – the 23-year-old edging Victor Lindelof and Pogba to the Matt Busby honour, as voted by supporters....
She-Hulk features one such Easter egg focused on the beloved mutant Wolverine. As many fans know, he’s as iconic as anyone under the X-Men banner, and he’ll likely be a leading figure when the X-Men do arrive. She-Hulk, on the other hand, tells of how Bruce Banner’s cousin Jennifer Walters gets exposed to his blood and, like her cousin, adopts a Hulking alter ego. As the series continues to release on Disney Plus, it’s hard to know how Walters’ story will ultimately end up, but the latest episode saw her looking for and accepting a new job....
Several Palestinian families residing in Sheikh Jarrah have been involved in lengthy legal battles with Israeli settlers attempting to acquire property in the neighborhood, according to The Associated Press. The issue has led to recent unrest in Jerusalem and the Palestinian territories. The hashtags #SheikhJarrah and #SaveSheikhJarrah spread on social media over the past week after a video purporting to show a confrontation between a Palestinian woman and an Israeli settler went viral....
They worked on complex, ever-changing formations, on more direct passing, and Pep Guardiola tended towards the “safe” option he uses in the biggest game – playing an extra central player instead of a winger. But it all failed during Tuesday night’s shocking 3-0 loss on Merseyside. If anything, Liverpool’s “spell” was not a spell at all – it was more than 30 minutes of the first half, and Guardiola’s side, who have looked untouchable pretty much all season in England, are now facing elimination at the quarter-final stage of the Champions League....
These days Fowler and Barbour are chairmen of their national parties. Last week, they again were puzzling urgently over racial math. In a landmark ruling that may greatly limit the reach of the Voting Rights Act, the Supreme Court declared that race could no longer be the “predominant factor” in drawing congressional districts -or, by implication, any jurisdiction, from school boards to state legislatures. In effect, the court hit the recall button on the spread-sheet of race....
