![]() ![]() Several years later, Connor and Jenny met again and rekindled their romance. When he next saw Jenny, he ignored her in favor of Allison. Wayne advised a heartbroken Connor to avoid romance at all costs in order not to feel such pain again, and began to teach him his techniques as a pickup artist. By middle school, they were on the verge of romance, but Connor's hesitation at a dance caused Jenny to dance with and kiss another boy. She and Connor were very close at school she gave him his first instant camera which he used to take her picture, promising to keep it forever. They revisit scenes from his past, focusing on his relationship with Jenny. The first is the "Ghost of Girlfriends Past" in the form of Allison, his first lover. After delivering a drunken speech at the rehearsal dinner, Connor is visited by the ghost of the inveterate playboy Wayne, who warns Connor that he will be visited by three ghosts who will lead him through his romantic past, present, and future. There, he becomes reacquainted with Jenny Perotti, the only girl who captured his heart. After breaking up with three women simultaneously on a conference call to save time, he travels to his late uncle Wayne's estate to attend the wedding of his brother Paul to Sandra. The three ghosts share similar appearances with the original descriptions, and the film shares the traditional plot points from the book.Ĭonnor Mead is a famous photographer and womanizer. Ghosts of Girlfriends Past features a wedding day and the day before, rather than the familiar Christmas and Christmas Eve from A Christmas Carol. Filming spanned Februto July 2008 in Rhode Island with stars Matthew McConaughey, Jennifer Garner, Lacey Chabert, Emma Stone, and Michael Douglas. The script was written by Jon Lucas and Scott Moore, based on Charles Dickens' 1843 novella A Christmas Carol. Truth is, there are enough laughs to entertain, if not enthrall.Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is a 2009 American romantic comedy film directed by Mark Waters. It's a little off putting to see A Christmas Carol "reimagined" in this manner, but we won't be a Scrooge and say it's all for naught. McConaughey is also relatively solid, but Garner and the supporting characters outshine him, especially Chabert, as a well-meaning woman on the verge of becoming Bridezilla, and Meyer, who adds heart to a frothy script. (Who knew playing sordid could be so fun?) ![]() This is the Douglas we adored in Wonder Boys - no spit-shine, no polish, just rough edges with a hint of sleaze. Then there's Douglas, who appears to be channeling both Hugh Hefner and Jack Nicholson. The fact that someone like her would like someone like McConaughey's Connor makes us want to believe in what romcoms sell - love that makes no sense but works anyway. First, there's Garner: Quick with verbal volleys and arch reaction shots, she grounds the movie in girl-next-door goodness. The premise may be tired, the jokes stale, and the script trite ("Pain beats regret every day of the week, and twice on Sunday," for example), but it's actually more amusing than expected thanks to two critical casting choices. GHOSTS OF GIRLFRIENDS PAST hews close to the romantic comedy "rules" - you know where it's going to end within the first half hour. Absolutely disgusting and not in touch with reality. What a joke.Īnd the "good" ending at the end doesn't fix any of the issues, the fact is that the movie still glamorizes the playboy lifestyle, dehumanizes the female characters, and sends the wrong message that a womanizer can be "fixed" by the "right woman". And it teaches that he can't be held responsible for his actions because some girl in middle school rejected him, so now he's afraid of commitment. The women in this film aren't even treated as people, but rather as playthings for the protagonist. It teaches horrible pickup tricks that you should belittle and play mind-tricks on women and they'll come crawling to you. It's full of stereotypes, portraying women as hysterical, ditzy, and objectifying them at every turn. If you're watching this with kids, it's extremely inappropriate, and not just because of the constant talk about sex, but rather because it sends extremely harmful messages to boys and girls alike. I don't know in what world this movie passed off as a rom-com, there is nothing romantic or comedic about this film. ![]()

Click on the labels tab in settings, scroll down and click the show option for the Bin label. If you can’t find your Bin folder, as it’s sometimes hidden from view, click on the gear icon on the top right of your Gmail and navigate to settings. It’s worth mentioning at this point that any email you delete that’s labelled as spam is permanently deleted, and isn’t stored the Bin folder as a result. Located on the left hand side, along with the rest of your folders, the Bin folder stores all emails you’ve deleted in the past 30 days, after which, they’re permanently deleted. If your search has been fruitless and you’ve been tearing your hair out trying to find that email, now’s the time to check in the Bin folder (or Trash outside of the UK). All you’ve got to do here is use the search box at the top of the page, where you can type phrases and keywords related to the email or the sender and you might just find it. The first step is an obvious one, have a search around for the email you’re trying to recover, especially considering it could just be hidden in one of your many folders for instance. Thankfully, Google makes it pretty easy to recover your emails in Gmail.

The PDF format of the flier means it can easily be updated and corrected as time goes on. Someone could, for instance, send the flier to a newsroom staff address while avoiding being identified as the person who sent the document. For the sake of privacy, she does not track its distribution or collect data on email addresses entered into the website. “It’s supposed to be a reminder that can sit at their desk or on their computer.”įriends who contributed to the guide have printed out copies of the flier and posted it in their newsrooms and sent it to others, Mansfield said. To that end, Mansfield created a website at where anyone can download a PDF of the flier, or send it anonymously to an email address. The goal was not to upset or single out editors and colleagues who’ve made mistakes, but to help those who are learning and who have good intentions. The purpose of the flier was to educate staffers who may not know some of the ways to compassionately cover these communities and support trans and nonbinary coworkers and to distribute it in a way that wouldn’t put the burden on marginalized journalists to confront their peers. The guide doesn’t purport to have all the answers for everyone it includes links to established sources such as the Trans Journalists Association style guide. She collected stories and edits as she went, condensing information and keeping it organized into two pages, including an overview, a list of “Who they are” and “Who they are not,” and tips for how to help with daily tasks, including using proper pronouns and keeping stories in the right context.

It is clearly the result of years of design refinement. The DJI Mini 2 feels very intuitive when it comes to ergonomics. ![]() The last thing you want is to lack confidence in your ability to navigate your drone around obstacles. Handling and controls are essential when it comes to flying a drone. The new editor also supports switching between portrait and landscape orientation, allowing you to shoot and edit the way you prefer.ĭJI Mini 2 fits in the palm of your hand! With intuitive timelines, you can edit footage flexibly and precisely. Multiple templates, music options, special effects, and more are available for quick and convenient editing. Users can also easily manage storage, with the ability to export or delete footage directly in the app. Shooting, editing, and sharing can all be done in-app. Users can easily adjust camera parameters with a single tap, quickly switch between shooting modes, and adjust the gimbal angle on the screen. With a sleek and efficient interface, DJI Fly provides an expanded view for composition and shooting. Parameters like signal strength, flying mode, altitude, distance, and battery level are easily visible during flight, so you always have access to the latest information. The DJI Fly app interface was designed to be simplified and intuitive. Overall, the build quality of the DJI Mavic Mini 2 is excellent, especially for the price. I love the slim design of the case because it feels like the whole kit can easily travel inside another bag and stand alone when you just want to go out and fly. My only complaint is that the face is a little large compared with the compactness of the rest of the kit.ĭespite this, everything fits neatly into a shoulder bag carrying case. In addition to the drone and battery pack, the controller is well-designed to offer a comfortable grip and easy phone screen viewing. I also love how the battery pack/charger charges the batteries sequentially via USB-C and doubles as a battery pack in case you need to charge the controller or anything else while out traveling. The battery on the DJI Mini 2 tucks neatly into the back of the drone and locks into place. ![]() On the front, you’ll see the small gimbal/lens that shoots smooth 4k 30fps video as well as 12-megapixel still images. When folded, it fits in the palm of my hand and weighs about as much as an apple. This drone mimics the typical folding design of previous DJI drones yet has a new cover/harness to keep all the props neatly tucked away. It feels sturdy enough to survive a mild crash (just avoid dunking it in water) and rugged enough to last years of use. The DJI Mavic Mini 2 is so compact that I never hesitate to throw it in my bag if I think there might be an opportunity to fly.ĭespite its nimble physique, the DJI Mavic Mini 2 is very well-built. It allows you to bring it to places where larger drones would be cumbersome. I strongly encourage you to obey all laws and regulations, but I do appreciate that the small size of the DJI Mini 2 gets around some of the red tape involved with flying drones.Īside from the government restrictions, having a super lightweight and compact drone is just plain cool. It’s like a miniaturized version of my larger DJI Mavic Pro 2.Ĭoming in at 249 grams, it is under the weight limit in most countries that requires registration with the government.įlying professionally typically still requires registration, but casual hobbyist drone pilots will not have to register their drones with the government.

If Perry doesn’t make the roster, technically Simpson will still be the last player to wear No. Perry isn’t guaranteed to make the Bills. Perry told Graham he was told it was available, and took it. 32 most of his life, but assumed it was retired in Buffalo.
