Blog EX - Changing Meaning

I've never used Photoshop to edit photos, but for this particular picture, I messed around with five different settings: Curves, Hue/Saturation, Exposure, Levels, and Vibrance.

In Photoshop, I used the curves tool to make slight changes to the contrast and used the exposure and levels tool to adjust the lighting. My goal while editing the photo was to enhance the colors in the environment, particularly the posters and mangas, as they looked dull in the original image. I wanted to draw more attention to the artwork on the cover of the mangas and on the wall. To achieve this, I gave the picture a slightly more saturated look and increased the vibrance.

On the left is the original photo. Next to it is the one I edited. The photo was taken on an iPhone 15 ProMax, and Photoshop was used to edit the picture. This picture was taken at a bookstore called Kinokuniya in Carrolton.

Kang-Dae Jackson || 29 || #901 || Big Matthew || MISSING

Personality:

a dog , a brute , too smart to be so caustic. there’s always a sarcastic bite of a reply on his tongue. there’s always a fight in his bones. he’s calmed down a lot now that he’s an adult , boot camp beat a lot of the need to gnash his teeth at the world out of him. it’s less reflexive , but anyone with a brain can see his always figuratively gnawing at the bit that’s holding his jaws apart , keeping him from clenching so tight he breaks his own teeth to spite his face. when he was younger it was a loud tone colored with curses & bruised knuckles because he preferred to do the talking with his fists. now that he’s older & forced to mature , it’s constant pinched eyebrows & a grating drawl that’s somehow simultaneously uncaring & pissed off. untrusting & suspicious of those around him. he prefers to keep to himself & is a healthy combination of his military training & his base crass disposition. he struggles to make substantial connections because of this inherent distrust , but as far as he’s concerned , it’s what’s kept him alive through his high profile work & now this apocalyptic outbreak. all of that being said , he’s intelligent , he’s realistic , he gets shit done. he can think through a problem or a plan , & he can execute flawlessly because being angry at the world doesn’t make unable to function without exploding - not that he doesn’t like to explode - he just now has an understanding that it shouldn’t be the automatic answer to all of life’s problems. when someone is able to push through the nearly instinctual way he bites & barks , they find a man who is endlessly devoted to them. someone who would bend over backwards & burn down what’s left of the world just because they said they needed the light to see & keep warm. that’s the thing to know about kang - he does it all the way , or he ignores it entirely ; there’s no middle ground & he’s never half-assed a thing in his life. the worst person to have against you , & the best person to have standing next to you. he’s a dog , through & through.

Biography:

growing up in the texas suburbs of carrolton did kang-dae jackson a lot of favors. never had a hand-me-down , got the antique ‘64 mustang shelby on his 16th birthday because he’d kept his grades up. one could look at his track record in school & say that maybe the privilege gave him too many favors - he was held back two grades in elementary school on grounds of not being mature enough to be promoted , he bullied his best friend relentlessly all through middle school. he frustrated the hell out of his mother & school teachers & admins because he was obviously smart , his grades reflected that ; but his delinquent file & in school suspension report folder was nearly as thick as all the tests his mother kept that had that shiny , red ‘A+’ at the top.

he calmed down more when he hit high school. he was already professionally shitty to almost everyone he came into contact with , & puberty actually helped him balance out a little bit in his last years of lower education. instead of outright bullying his best friend ( because he had a giant crush on him ) , he was more protective & an awkward but supportive actual friend to him. instead of punching the people who pissed them off , he decimated them with his words instead , which still landed him in detention , but he was seen as much less of a volatile problem & more of an occasional hazard. not that the private boy’s prep school he went to appreciated his behavior on any level , which is why when the military recruiters came by his senior year , they all but shoved him their way - telling that marine corps salesman ‘have we got the perfect boy for you!’. when kang mocked the surprise on his face at the reserve pitch , the uniformed gentleman knew he’d found a winner. graduation came & went quickly , & kang’s mother was equal parts sad & relieved to help her son pack her bags to be shipped off to san diego for boot camp.

boot camp was the ( literal ) kick to the teeth that kang needed to finally understand that being so automatically abrasive as a response to every piece of stimuli in his life was not the way to go. he learned respect , he learned to wait & watch , he learned that there was merit & power in biting his tongue. some people couldn’t handle the extremes , some people were damaged from the experience , but kang was one of the few that really took to the training that the military had to offer. unaware , he was watched by his superiors from day one. it wasn’t often that someone with his test scores also had his disposition ; they knew if he could shape out & fill out , he would be a force to recon with. & by the time basic training was over & they were ready to pick an MOS. . . they had no idea how correct they were. before he could fill out his paperwork to make his own selection , he was approached by the blacksuits & asked about his family , his connections , any & every thing he’d ever done that might have a paper trail. at first he didn’t understand the run down , but then it became clear that he was being vetted for secruity clearence , they wanted him to go special ops. he was never asked , he was never given another option , & at first it had pissed him off , jaw ticking next to his ear - but he fell into the training so effortlessly , passed every exam without flaws & consistently showed top scores , that he learned to put a little faith in the powers that be. maybe if the right ones were watching , it wasn’t so bad to go with the flow.

from there , everything always happened so quickly. he was dragged from one place to another , more shinies added to his chest , more badges sewn into his uniforms. . . seldom getting the opportunity to go home & see his mom or his friends back home. he quickly became one of the most trusted marines to do high - level security duty , black suits & corded devices in his ears as he transported senators & presidents & foreign liaisons. he got to travel the world & see some cool people & see some cool places , but he became nameless , faceless , forgettable. he enjoyed the work at first , but as the years dragged on , he liked it less & less. he missed his home. he missed his mom , he missed his best friend. but duty was duty & he’d sold away his freedom to the military so he was left with no choice.

until the outbreak. he’d all but been thrown on a private jet back to the states. they knew of the outbreak before the media did , & he was able to cross the border back in without a hitch. they shipped him straight to new york city , there was a team from the cdc that was having an issue controlling the environment enough to do their work , & it was his job to keep the crawlers off them so they could do their potential world - saving work. his anxieties had been with his mom back home , but they’d assured him nothing had reached as far as texas yet. she was aware of the situation because of the news , & he demanded & cussed until he got a phone call to make sure she was safe before he stepped of the plane. thoughts steady on home , on the people from what used to be his life. . . 

just to step off the plane & see a green mop of hair that he used to shove down. those pretty curls that he grew to think were so adorable , above freckles that dusted tan checks , above a mouth that was twisted in concentration as he leaned over a giant portable suit-case computer that was bright & green against his glasses. the object of his life-long obsession , his best friend that he thought after so frequently over the last several years , right before his eyes , being the subject he was supposed to protect. the boy he regretted bullying once he had vision enough to pull his head out of his ass. funny how things worked , huh ?

if things happened quickly before , now they were speeding by kang in a manner he could barely keep up with. training kicked in & he moved automatically , bullet after bullet between the eyes of any crawler he could snipe , charged with protection and saving ammunition & supplies. the team outside of sev himself was small , & a few of them got injured , a few of them kicked it , hell a few of them even ran in a selfish attempt to save their hides. but not sev , never sev. focused on the goal , so focused that when the muttering about ‘not being able to do enough , or see enough from here ’ got louder, kang was hell-bent on doing whatever he could to see his vision through , even if it meant deserting his post. & then like the universe was just as hell-bent on delivering sev to what he needed , their camp was over-run & the team was dispersed , forced to separate. kang kept to the scientists heels , rifle in one hand , field knife in the other until they reached a beacon of light called the wexley.

the occupants readily let them in , seemingly thankful for another capable set of hands. they’d quickly find that kang’s loyalty was already totally tied up & spoken for. . . 

Pre Outbreak Occupation: USMC Special Ops Previous Zombie Experience: very up close & personal as he protected a base camp at the edge of the island before literally fighting his way into the wexler. Martial Status: Single Children:  N/A Residence: Loft #901 Years residing at The Wexley: 0 Connections: 

Seven Du - Ensured that Sev made it safely to the Wexley. Currently rooming with them as they’re unsure they can trust any of the Wexley’s residents.

TAKOMA PARK, Md. — A Takoma Park man previously charged for vandalizing two Prince George's County libraries is now charged with possessing child pornography. Charles Sutherland faces at least seven charges of possessing child pornography, according to a charging document.

Sutherland was arrested back in June for spray painting the word "Groomer" on the front door of the Greenbelt library and the New Carrolton library during Capitol Pride Week. He faced vandalism and hate crime charges after he was arrested. Sutherland worked as a school librarian at Northview Elementary School in Bowie at the time. He has been on administrative leave since his arrest in June.

CARROLLTON, Texas — A North Texas woman allegedly stabbed her husband and then drove into a retention pond with her three children inside the car, according to the Carrolton Police Department.

Police said officers on Friday afternoon were still investigating a domestic violence incident involving a man stabbed with a knife in the 4400 block of Tall Knight Lane, as well as a related accident where someone drove a vehicle into a retention pond near the 900 block of Hebron Parkway in Lewisville.

Carrollton police, along with Carrollton Fire Rescue, responded to a call at 7:48 a.m. Friday from a man alleging he had been stabbed by his wife. Carrollton Fire Rescue transported him to a local hospital for further treatment. As of Friday afternoon, officials said he is expected to survive. 

In a separate 911 call in Lewisville, the Lewisville Police Department said officers responded to a report of one adult woman later confirmed to be the wife of the stabbed man, and three children, ages 8, 9 and 12, who were inside a vehicle that had been driven into a lake. 

Lewisville police told WFAA first responders were able to pull the woman, identified as Wei Fen Ong, and two children from the vehicle, and the third child was able to free himself. One child was resuscitated at the scene, and a second child was resuscitated on the way to the hospital, Lewisville police said.

Police said one child remains in critical condition, while the others are reportedly stable. 

Police said Ong is now in custody at the Carrollton Police Department and will be transferred to the Denton County detention facility. She's facing one count of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon resulting in serious bodily injury and three counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Police said all charges are being filed with the Denton County District Attorney. 

Family members have been notified of the incident and are cooperating with the police investigation. There was no active threat to the public.

Essential BMW Engine Maintenance Tips for Carrolton Drivers to Avoid Costly Repairs

Well, even your kid next door knows the importance of a properly functioning engine for your high-end BMW. The engine is the heart of your BMW that generates the required power for your luxury car to move. However, it is often noticed that issues with the engine not only affect the performance of the car but also lead to inflated repair bills.

There are certain maintenance tips that you can follow to keep the engine functioning without any fuss. Let us have a look at the useful maintenance tips that will definitely help your engine & reduce your costly repair bills.

Important Maintenance Aspects

Regular Engine Oil Change

The engine is the most important component in your vehicle that plays a critical role in the smooth running & better performance of the car. The engine of your BMW requires an adequate quantity of engine oil for its efficient functioning because the engine oil circulates throughout the engine & lubricates the moving parts.

The proper lubrication of the moving parts of the engine by the engine oil prevents the engine from overheating and this is a very crucial maintenance aspect related to your BMW. Most of the time it is seen that the presence of inadequate engine oil does lead to serious damage to the engine.

You must definitely have a look at the owner’s manual of your BMW which contains all the details regarding the proper mileage interval during which the engine oil needs to be replaced.

Inspect the Coolant Levels

Apart from the engine oil, there are certain other fluids in your vehicle that play a stellar role in the optimal functioning of the engine. The coolant is one such fluid that is responsible for maintaining optimal temperature in the engine so that the engine doesn’t get overheated when running.

The coolant is responsible for circulating through the engine and in the process absorbs the excess heat produced during the combustion process. The coolant is also popularly known as the antifreeze and it not only protects the engine from excess heat buildup but also helps in the functioning of the air conditioning system.

That is why all the certified mechanics you will come across in Carrolton would ask you to keep a tab on the coolant levels of your BMW.

In addition to inspecting the coolant levels, you must also have a look at the components of the cooling system like the radiator, hoses, and coolant reservoir to make sure they are in proper shape & aren’t affected by any issues.

Replace The Oil filter & Air Filter

There are certain filters used in your BMW and prominent among them are the oil and air filter. The oil filter in your BMW prevents the entry of dirt and other contaminants into the engine along with the engine oil.

When the engine oil circulates through the engine it picks up many dirt & debris and the oil filter prevents their entry the next time oil circulates through the engine.

Similarly, there is an air filter in your BMW that filters the air entering the engine of your car. For the efficient functioning of the engine, the air/fuel ratio needs to be adequate and when the engine sucks in more air, the air filter makes sure that dirt & debris don’t get inside the engine of your car.

During your regular maintenance schedule, you should get your oil and air filter inspected and if they are damaged then you must immediately replace them with new ones. Often clogged oil and air filter play havoc with the functioning of the engine and their replacement is a must if you want your engine to function smoothly.

Check the Timing Belt & Chain

Well, you might be surprised to see the name of the timing belt & chain on the list of important maintenance aspects of your engine. The timing belt and chain play a critical role in synchronizing the functioning of the various components of the engine.

Often it is observed that in due course of time, the timing belt starts to wear out and there will come a time when it breaks off completely. If you happen to come across a deteriorating timing belt then you need to replace it with a new one.
