Will Halstead is quite the package ⁠— good-looking, ambitious and motivated by passion and determination. He isn’t always the easiest person to be around on the Chicago Med scene, but he is definitely worth watching in that when he fixes his mind and heart on something, he won’t relent ⁠— until he has it. He has had a challenging past and carries his fair share of issues, and while some of his moves might seem arrogant or not quite match up to what viewers expect he is, for the most part, a wholly human and believable a character....

Chris Evans and Scarlett Johannsson addressed some of the “anti-Marvel” comments made by filmmakers like Martin Scorsese. Last month, Scorsese made headlines when he called Marvel movies “something else,” equating them with “theme park rides” that lacked depth and were unconcerned with conveying emotional or psychological experiences. These comments have provoked a plethora of reactions, one of which was Francis Ford Coppola’s backing of Scorsese’s remarks, calling Marvel’s cinematic revolution “despicable....

News coverage requires a camera that not only produces good enough results for publication, but one that is sufficiently fast, reliable and flexible to cope with whatever might be thrown at it....

AirTag is, first and foremost, marketed as a consumer product. It’s an affordable little tracker you can attach to keys, bags, clothing, cars, pets, you name it.

IT WAS BASED ON A FILM SCRIPT THE MURDERS WERE BASED ON JACK THE RIPPER Initially, Inspector Philostrate is tracking a killer that murders its lower class fae citizens and leaves them horribly disfigured. The inhabitants of Carnival Row, the impoverished section of the Burgue, where survival of the fittest is the only way to live, are terrified he’ll pick them off one by one. The hushed murmurs of this “Jack business” refers to the Victorian serial killer Jack the Ripper, thought to be a member of the elite class, who murdered British prostitutes — some say out of a moral obligation — to cleanse the city of London of their degradation....

A “cold tech war” between the US and China could still leave Apple in the firing line, argues Wedbush, even after the Biden administration rolled back some of the Trump-era policies. President Biden this week revoked the scheduled US bans on TikTok and WeChat, and has generally been taking a less aggressive stance with China, but there is still plenty of potential for trouble ahead … For example, in revoking the planned Chinese app bans, Biden replaced it with a more general executive order calling for a review of apps owned by China and other countries of concern, in order to protect US national security....

Although queuing at stores on launch day is usually an optimistic approach to picking up a new iPhone unless you get there days early, there are signs that it may work out better this year even given the constrained supplies of the iPhone X.
