 The colored dots on your Canon lenses correspond to different types of lens mounts and alignment markers: 1. **Red Dot**: This indicates that the lens is compatible with Canon's EF (Electro-Focus) mount. These lenses can be used on both full-frame and APS-C sensor cameras. The red dot is used for aligning the lens with the camera body when attaching it. 2. **White Dot**: This is found on lenses with the EF-S (Electro-Focus Short Back Focus) mount, which are specifically designed for Canon's APS-C sensor cameras. The white dot is also used to align the lens with the camera body. The distinction helps ensure that you’re using the correct lens type for your camera.

  This photograph is a masterclass in juxtaposition. The cosplay heroes, with their cartoonish physiques and Day-Glo hues, seem to mock the Japanese garden's understated elegance. And yet, they also seem to embody its spirit, their playful, performative energy echoing the garden's own carefully constructed beauty. The image is a sly commentary on the ways in which we perform and present ourselves to the world. @prettyheroes @CitizenCanada @greatguytelevision #EverydayIcons #CosplayParadox #PrettyHeroes #EdScholzGallery #EdScholz In a serene Japanese garden, a fantastical fusion unfolds. Cosplay heroes, once confined to comic book pages, now roam among tranquil water features and meticulously raked gravel. The vibrant hues of their costumes pierce the lush greenery, as if the very essence of fantasy has been unleashed upon this peaceful oasis. @prettyheroes @CitizenCanada @greatguytelevision #EverydayIcons #CosplayParadox #PrettyHeroes #EdScholzGallery #EdScholz

  Here’s a combined and sourced version suitable for a blog post on Blogger: --- **Comparing Myths: Sexual Thoughts Every 7 Seconds and Multiple Words for Snow** Two intriguing myths highlight how initial observations can be distorted over time: the notion that men think about sex every 7 seconds and the idea that Inuit languages have an unusually high number of words for snow. **Men Thinking About Sex Every 7 Seconds:** The claim that men think about sex every 7 seconds is a sensationalized statistic that lacks scientific backing. This myth gained popularity from sources like Amara Charles' 1994 book, *"The Sexual Practices of Quodoushka,"* which presented the figure without credible evidence. Scientific research, such as the study by Laumann et al. (1994) in *"The Social Organization of Sexuality,"* shows that while men think about sex more frequently than women on average, the idea of every 7 seconds is an exaggeration (Laumann et al., 1994). This demonstrate...

 The disparity in upload speed between your tablet and desktop could stem from several factors: Network Interface : Tablets often use Wi-Fi, which can fluctuate based on signal strength, proximity to the router, and network interference. If your desktop is connected via Ethernet, it should theoretically provide more stable speeds, but this depends on the quality of the network card and cable. Hardware Specifications : Tablets, especially newer models, may have more optimized network hardware that can handle faster data transfers, while your desktop might have an older or less efficient network card. Background Processes : Desktops typically run more background applications that can consume bandwidth, such as cloud services, updates, or other network-related tasks, which could throttle (limit) the upload speed. Network Settings : The desktop might have different network configurations or outdated drivers that could hinder its performance. Ensure that your desktop’s network drivers a...
