It is your power, it states that this is your open form of student expression. For example, if you felt you had too many tests and wanted to organize students to boycott school, you might get ISS. But if your on our newspaper staff and you were to write an opinions piece and you called a meeting after school hours, you could do that.
You would have to discuss it, but there is a chance it will be published. It doesn't go to anyone except Mr. Reeves and he doesn't even censor you. If you can convince him then you can run whatever you want to run. They avoid bias and/or favoritism.
In case someone wants to write a letter to the editor you can, because they have the address and email.

Front Pages of The World
1.) My favorite Newspaper front page out of all of the newspaper front pages i looked at was Stars and Stripes - MidEast Edition. The reason i chose this one was because it didn't have too many words, which makes you want to look inside and buy it, also because the headlines are big and captivating, and it has a bold and major photo that was well taken in the front of it, drawing more attention to the newspaper.
2.) My favorite headline on here is "Broken Trust" because it has that human interest news value in it and it makes me want to read it.
3.) The newspaper front page has 2 stories.
4.) All of the newspapers generally have big headline, and a big photo, which is what i think is what people want to see or know about. Then after that they mostly all have little stories, that don't give away too much, letting you know just enough to let you make the decision of if you want to buy it.
5.) Some things that change are the size of the stories, and how many. Most of them had a good amount of them, but some of them had way too many. They were very overwhelming and distracting.

Lenses and Photography Vocabulary
Lens Questions
I would use a telephoto lens to take a picture of a flower, or maybe some leaves on a tree. I might also use it to take a picture of someones eye, or something small/tiny.I would use a prime lens to take a picture of a birthday/birthday cake at a dimly lit party. I might also use it to take a picture of a dark street, or something at night.
I would use a wide-angle lens to take a picture of a field of some sort, whether it's a football field or soccer field. i might also use it to take a picture of the sky, or something large like a school of some sort.
Photography Vocabulary Definitions
Depth of Field (Shallow & Wide) - the distance between the nearest and farthest objects in a scene that appear acceptably sharp in an image. Shallow - A shallow depth of field would mean that only objects within a small distance in a scene would be focused; everything else would be out-of-focus. Deep - A deep depth of field would mean that a much larger range of objects at various distances would be in focus.Light (Angle & Intensity) - The angle of light is where the light is coming from and how it bounces off of things in the photo. The intensity of light refers to how bright it is in the photo.
Shadows - A dark area or shape produced by a someone or something between rays of light and a surface.
Diffusion - In photography it means the scatter of light.
Exposure - Is the amount of light collected by the sensor in your camera during a photo.
Aperture (f-stop) - The unit of measurement that defines the size of the opening in the lens that can be adjusted to control the amount of light reaching the film or digital sensor.
Shutter Speed - Shutter speed is the length of time a cameras shutter is open.
ISO - How sensitive the image sensor is to the amount of light present. The higher the ISO, the more sensitive the image sensor and therefore the possibility to take pictures in low-light situations.

Cover Types
Early Magazine Covers - When magazines used covers, they tried to make them look like the covers of books, by only putting the title and information about the publication. It didn't have any words that told you what would be inside of the magazine. They also had a table of contents section inside of the magazine. This style, a book like form of magazine cover, continued from about the 1700's to 1800's.
Mothers Magazine is an example of a common cover that was used in the 1800's. Covers usually didn't have any lines telling you what was inside, they were rare and many of the magazines in the 1800's had no covers. Cover lines started being put on in the late 1800's. The Peterson's woman's magazine had a cover with a picture on it, and on the top of the magazine it said "Now is the time to make up clubs."
They were mainly interested in whether or not they should use cover lines on their magazines, and if they did have them, how many of them should the use.
The Poster Cover - This form of cover was used from the late 1800s to the 1960s. It is said to set the standard for all other kinds of covers. It had become really famous by the early 1900s. The covers were huge and looked like they could be framed and hung on a wall. Most of the cover photos are just photos that gave out a good mood or a season. A lot of these photos are gorgeous and captivating. Most of them didn't have cover lines, but then they started gathering a few. They put the cover lines at the bottom or where they had room, but when they did put them they made them really small.
Pictures Married To Type - Cover lines are kind of known now, and they are used, but now it has a big title and a model in a weird pose. The cover lines are put in very carefully. And it is very important that they are. They put a lot of colors on their magazines and put the cover lines in a way that didn't distract from the picture. But in the late 1960s they stopped making the captions small and hidden. They put them really big and sometimes they even underlined them in different colors to add emphasis and to draw attention. Pretty soon cover lines started being really larger and colorful and powerful.
In The Forest of Words - It starts at around the 1930s and goes to the 2000s. They make the picture extremely powerful and they overlap some of the words with pictures. They still had a lot of cover lines now. But the images are not in the foreground anymore. They make the cover lines in the foreground and they make a lot of things close up. They are covered by a cluster of words and sometimes are too much. A quote from Longleaf.net says "The models on magazine covers look at us through the listed contents of those magazines, which they practically wear like a garment, or stand in, like an aura."

Favorite: "For W's biggest fashion issue of the year, the magazine celebrated the ways women today transform themselves by showcasing actress Kristen Stewart as readers had never seen her before. Photographers Mert Alas and Marcus Piggot transformed the 21-year-old cover model from the Twilight teenager that audiences know best into the glamorous, grown-up vixen she's becoming. "Vampires are a little dangerous—and we girls like to test ourselves," Stewart says playfully on the cover, tempting readers to pick up the issue and see for themselves."
My Critique: I think that out of all five of the magazine tips i listed on my other blog, that this cover shows 3 of the 5. But the reason it is only 3 is because the other 2 cannot be found because they can't be determined. The three that this cover uses is Arousing Curiosity, Intellectually Stimulating (Interesting), and if it is invisible like wallpaper, decide what element is worthy of becoming dominant. It arouses curiosity by making the girl go with a white background, and it seems to me like a snowy or winter theme of some sort. It is intellectually Stimulating (Interesting) because the pink words go really well with the white and the blackness of her hair. It makes it pop and makes it more eye catching. And lastly, it is dominating by making her face big, and the center of attention. So that if people like her or know her, they might want to pick it up and read the article, just because of interesting and eye catching cover.
