Cameras used are common at 30 FPS. or 1/30 a second. NOT 1/30,000 as you stated. That is the normal rate for video cameras if you want good still shots. The NYT cam was using that same speed. Not unusual at all.
10 Yr Treasury contributes its climb in anticipation of the Big Beautiful Budget Busting Bill.
In turn mortgage rates continue to climb, the treasury yield is now disconnected from the Federal Funds rate that the Fed manages, so the Fed will not be able to lower interest rates effectively as the Treasury Yield will be driving the interest boat as long as deficits continue to increase.
The camera he used according to a search is as I stated. 30FPS. Normal for a photographers camera. You are mixing shutter speed (allowing light in) to frames or photos captured per second. Why he was shooting "wide-open" at 1/8000 shutter speed is a different issue. POTUS was standing still so the light issue from the shutter is a question for him. He was getting 30FPS and just got lucky.Could be... I read somewhere that it was a high performance camera for motion capable of that. My .5 second google search tells me by wikipedia high speed cameras are 1/1000, which is the real question, was he using especially capable equipment he otherwise woudln't have been.
i would like to know to what extent the medicaid cuts are to be. i’m all for eliminating fraud in such programs wherever it’s found, but some services in medicaid affect some of our most truly needy citizens. what immediately comes to mind are people who require nursing home care but their only resource is medicaid, which is already a hard process.Matt jones on KSR claiming the cuts to Medicaid in the budget deal will cause half the hospitals in KY to close. Is that even close to being true?

Thanks to a screenshot showing the photo's Exif (Exchangeable image file format) data, we can see that Mills used a Sony A1 – which remains Sony's flagship mirrorless camera – and captured the photo at a 1/8000s shutter speed, which is the camera's maximum shutter speed when using the mechanical shutter.
To reach that speed, Mills had to shoot wide open at f/1.6 with a 24mm focal length. He also used multi-pattern metering (which decides the exposure based on the whole frame, as opposed to center or spot metering) and was naturally shooting in manual mode for maximum control.
As Mills explained: "I just happened to have my finger on the shutter and I heard the pops and just kept shooting. I didn't know what I'd captured, but when I got to my laptop, I can see that bullet flying behind his head, because it's definitely not in the frames right before it and it's not in afterwards – it's only that one frame. I was shooting at 1/8000s – it captured that streak behind him".
In a follow-up article on The New York Times, the retired FBI special agent and firearms expert Michael Harrigan said the photo "absolutely could be showing the displacement of air due to a projectile", and some ballistic math suggests that 1/8000s shutter speed would make it possible to capture the bullet in those particular circumstances.
However, despite the Sony A1's fast maximum shutter speed and 30fps burst shooting mode, it's also a very rare event. Capturing a bullet in flight usually requires a high-speed camera and, as Harrigan explained, "catching a bullet on a side trajectory as seen in that photo would be a one in a million shot". But he also concluded that "if that's not showing the bullet's path through the air, I don't know what is".
Some other recent examples show that it is possible to capture bullets using the best professional cameras. In 2022, the Swedish photographer Göran Strand used the Nikon Z9's 1/32,000s maximum shutter speed and 120fps burst mode to capture a bullet leaving a biathlon rifle.
In response to that shot, the pro photographer Peter Russell wrote a lengthy breakdown of how difficult it is to shoot a speeding bullet even with the Nikon Z9, while also pointing out that slower shutter speeds (of between 1/8,000s to 1/16,000s) can actually improve your chances capturing the shot (albeit while showing more movement in the shot, like the Trump photo above).
Facebook?
Ahahahahahahah, you beclown yourself, sir!
A 35 year old Boomer mentality.
Notice every tesla and Trump protester is usually white and over 65?
They're all on FACEBOOK, too.
What a gash liar.This guy is unbelievable. Now he is on Colbert and his story has completely changed. The original story was he claimed almost complete ignorance of what the number meant other than he knew it was political. But after time to see everyone's reaction he knows that version makes him look like he is lying, or it makes him look dumb.
So now we get the practiced version Comey and his people have invented. He didn't even have this version ready for the earlier MSNBC interview. He would fail a polygraph miserably, and the first question should be 'did you or your wife put the seashells there?'
JAMES COMEY: "My wife and I were walking on the beach, and saw those numbers in shells on the beach... somebody else did it. We were on a walk, preparing for this week...she said, why'd somebody put their address in the sand?"
"We looked at it, trying to figure out what it was. She'd long been a server in restaurants. She said, you know what I think it is? A reference to restaurants. When you'd 86 something at a restaurant. I said, no, I remember as a kid, you'd say '86' to get out of a place. This place stinks, let's 86 it."
"So I said, I think it's a clever political message. She said, you should take a picture. I said, sure. She said, you should Instagram that. And then, boom."
Some who prefer to go there can't afford it. Rather easy.Do those schools not charge tuition to go there? If so, why do they need taxpayer funding?

I think it's mostly dependent-free healthy adults below age 65 & eliminating illegals on it.i would like to know to what extent the medicaid cuts are to be. i’m all for eliminating fraud in such programs wherever it’s found, but some services in medicaid affect some of our most truly needy citizens. what immediately comes to mind are people who require nursing home care but their only resource is medicaid, which is already a hard process.
i have first hand experience with trying to get a family member into a nursing home via medicaid and it ain’t easy.
Sharp dude.I might have to watch Gutfeld tonight if Tyrus is on.
Don't both Houses have to pass it? Has THE House passed it? Just a majority in both? Thanks.
He's not that good.Comey sucks
Make them PLO's ( permanent latrine orderly). If you've not seen "No Time for Sergeants" I recommend it.If Trump has to hire back DOE employees, then just reassign them per the famous last line on a job description: "other requirements as needed".....have them go around and clean the monuments and memorials.
First day of basic training. The DI asks if anyone has any college. One guy gets real excited. He is in the back row and kind of short, so he jumps up and down waving his arms, saying, "Me. I do." The DI says, "Good. You are my latrine queen."Make them PLO's ( permanent latrine orderly). If you've not seen "No Time for Sergeants" I recommend it.
