Men currently hold many powerful jobs and remain to be part of the main authority.

photography:
1. fav photo: the photo of maddy sparks playing Evita on page 7
1a. it looks pretty intense and i like the shadow/silhouette framing her.
1b. framing
2. the one for New Year, New Blog
2a. its really dark i feel like it could've been taken somewhere else or the settings could have been changed to make the exposure brighter
3. the knife throwing story
4. the photography was good, but could have been improved. i think the weakest points varied around making sure to have the right exposure, and also the fact that the photos lack emotion and action, something that's a really big part of photography. Otherwise, i think most of the photos were nicely taken, i would just have liked to maybe feel something while looking at them.

other high school newspapers
1. my favorite newspaper front page was the Synthetic LH magazine 11-13-13 because the photo and the font go really well together and the whole things gives you a creepy feel. It sort of draws you in. I also liked the MavLife dec 2013 one because the photo and headline was cute.
2. the Synthetic LH magazine 11-13-13
3. the only headline on this was Synthetic, but the font was really cool and worked well with the photo to give a dark feel to it. One the MavLife i liked he Pride and prejudice headline because of the different colors and the way they put it on there.
4. On Synthetic there is only one and one MavLife there is about five i think.
5. They always have one main photo with a headline on it, which is the main story. They also always have more than one story and maybe some cut outs.
5. the length of stories, amount of photos and headlines, fonts,

front pages of the world
1. United Daily News in Taipei, Taiwan because the fonts and pictures were eye-catching.
2. Considering the headlines are in chinese, i can't read them, but i like the main one because there's more than one color being used.
3. At least three with what look like a few ads on the side
4. The main story always has a dominant photo on it and takes up about half the page. On the sides are either adds or some stories you may see inside, and theres usually one-three more stories under the main one.
5. Some on them contain more photos (bigger ones in the center and small ones on the sides), some headlines are one color and others are multiple, and some newspapers have color schemes while others just use black.
