Whether this is a suburban setting or one in a city, I’m not sure, but it’s equally adventurous either way. ![]() They call it Urban Football, which may or may not be a play on Gigi’s dad’s name, but is most definitely an accurate description for two people playing tackle football in the middle of an area that’s packed with people. It didn't Urban Meyer's daughter, Gigi, released an emphatic statement on the Jaguars' decision to fire her father on Thursday. Stories like this one from former Ohio State linebacker Darron Lee (2013-15) on retiring Buckeyes head coach Urban Meyer are a part of what makes college football so great. Powell infamously dubbed herself the Kraken in her. The move was made official on Thursday morning. Nicki Meyer, Gigi’s older sister, retweeted the statement as well as a few stories about her dad from former and current players. One guy is just walking down an aisle, as if he’s going to get some fresh Hanes undershirts, and then disaster strikes: If we are to go by Powells efforts, its unlikely Meyer Pruett will accomplish anything with her posts. There’s also one destruction carried out just outside a Dick’s Sporting Goods, near what seems to be a relatively standard mall food court. “This is called targeting in Target,” one of the players says, right before the video cuts to him destroying the other guy several times in what appears to be an actual Target store. One of the funniest and probably dumbest things I’ve ever been a part of, but so worth it like if you think I’d make a great referee! post shared by Gigi Meyer on at 4:43pm PST ![]() ![]()
![]() ![]() This time, it’s Beyoncé, who will change a lyric on the song “Heated” from her latest album Renaissance, her team confirmed to Variety. She faced criticism for using the word “spaz” in the song. …įor the second time this summer, a singer is tweaking the lyrics to one of their new songs to remove an ableist slur. I don’t want to have this conversation again.”įor the second time this summer, a singer is tweaking the lyrics to one of their new songs to remove an ableist slur. “The teams of people involved in making this album somehow missed all the noise the disabled community made only six weeks ago when Lizzo did the same thing,” she wrote, adding, “I’m so tired. Lizzo quickly changed the lyrics, assuring fans, “I never want to promote derogatory language.” But on Monday, Diviney wrote a column in The Guardian expressing frustration that even after this episode, the “ableist language” popped up again on the Beyoncé album. It is sung by Laura Pitt-Pulford and George Blagden on lead vocals. It is heard after the player ( Leo or Emma) defeats the final boss, Shadow Lance. In June, Lizzo faced backlash for using the word in her song “Grrrls.” Disability advocate Hannah Diviney explained at the time that “my disability cerebral palsy is literally classified as spastic diplegia (where spasticity refers to unending painful tightness in my legs),” so the song “makes me pretty angry + sad.” Wonderworld is a musical number in Balan Wonderworld, and appears as a track in the BALAN WONDERWORLD Original Soundtrack. The word “spaz,” short for “spastic,” is often considered to be an offensive term referring to spastic diplegia, a type of cerebral palsy. “The road to success is always under construction.” “The word, not used intentionally in a harmful way, will be replaced,” Beyoncé’s team told Variety. She faced criticism for using the word “spaz” in the song. ![]() ![]() For the second time this summer, a singer is tweaking the lyrics to one of their new songs to remove an ableist slur. ![]() ![]() ![]() That was one of the reasons why Olympus moved from this particular format (limited to 2GB capacity) to the SD card industry standard.ĭespite the upgrades, the niche they created for gear, Olympus Imaging felt this chapter reached its end. Olympus viewer 3 tutorial download#Back then, it didn’t matter the extra step that was needed to get the pictures – bridging the camera with a USB cable to download the photos – as xD cards didn’t boost many compatible card readers to be instantly downloaded. ![]() I still remember my first digital camera, an Olympus Stylus 600, with its odd memory card format that I was helpful I purchased it at the same time, as not all the stores had xD cards in 2006. No questions asked, if it was shaken then you can take as many times as you want (or as the internal storage avails) so the answer is yes, smartphones prove to be a killer to most of the compact cameras produced to date that are aimed for amateurs as they can bypass many of the steps and instantly share it to social media after applying a filter or two. ![]() My point here is whereas we needed to wait for “the moment”, calculate the values for aperture and shutter speed, watch not to ruin it by taking an out of focus picture, and the whole post-production process, teens these days take a snap of a moment as simple as taking their phone out and tapping on the screen. Photos are not as “enjoyed” as what happened 20 years ago by teens who were keen on the hobby, though that would also prove to be a stupid generalization. How do smartphones compete then? The answer is the instant lifestyle many youngsters prefer to live. It has become a cult-format for many, especially travel photographers given the advantages of wearing a lighter camera body, not to mention that highly respected brands as Sigma, Tamron, and Tokina are builders of lenses for this particular kind of mount. Brands that have also explored the micro four thirds system in camera production are Kodak – for digital photography, DJI, JVC, Sharp, and Xiaomi – for videography. Olympus is the champion of the micro four thirds system, still an open format and the flagship of both Olympus and Panasonic that doesn’t leave room for the mirror box and pentaprism, thus facilitating a smaller-sized body and delivers a flange focal distance of 19.5mm. Image quality is purely defined by a combination of the lens used and the sensor your camera sports. The confusion comes as people believe the megapixel count is the only factor in defining image quality. Compact cameras can be put under quotation marks as useful these days, although they still prove to be efficient, no smartphone known these days can compete with cameras like the Olympus Tough TG-5 and TG-6 when it comes to underwater photography. While we can say that’s not accurate, as there’s no comparison point on mirrorless cameras vs smartphones. One of the biggest reasons why Olympus Imaging opted out is pointed to the smartphone’s role in photography, both amateur and professional. What does this news mean for the average photographer? Smartphones, market competition and the Japanese philosophy You can say it comes as a shocker given the fact they’ve been in the industry for 84 years, but talk about 2020 and anything is possible. ![]() Olympus discontinues their camera production: Now what? As you may have read from the news, Olympus quits the camera business despite its successful history in the industry. ![]() ![]() MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Test Menu Items", MessageBoxButtons.OK, MessageBoxIcon.Warning) ĬommandBarButtonMyOptions2.Click += new.
