If you’ve ever watched even a few minutes of bowling at any level, you know there are no two bowlers who throw the ball exactly alike. The best in the world share a few common traits, but just because one bowler looks smooth and another looks like he could collapse at any moment doesn’t mean they both can’t succeed. There are several different categories of bowling styles, into which we can try to place a bowler....

You know you’re in the wrong battle when other rappers laugh off off your so-called beef. “No one cares like it’s J.Cole/Diggy,” was how Childish Gambino captured rap’s latest feud (it feels weird just typing that) on “Eat Your Vegetables,” perfectly summing up the sentiment that has greeted the feud brewing between Diggy Simmons and J.Cole. No one cares. Not even J. Cole. A little back story. Once upon a time, J....

There’s a growing interest in the phenomenon of shadow people. What are they? Ghosts? Inter-dimensional beings? Time travelers? Something else? You were reading, sitting comfortably on your sofa in the dim light when some movement across the room caught your attention. It seemed dark and shadowy, but there was nothing there. You returned to your reading—and a moment later there it was again. You looked up quickly this time and saw the fleeting but distinctly human shape of the shadow pass quickly over the far wall—and disappear....

Vocal injuries are common among singers, particularly those who have not studied formally. Many successful singers actually came into prominence by relying on their talent and never benefited from formal study, which trains singers in the healthy use of their voice. As a result, they often learned destructive habits that eventually resulted in injury. However, even trained singers can sustain a vocal injury, particularly if they sing too often. Here is a roundup of some famous examples of singers who have suffered injuries and reportedly had to cancel performances due to vocal injury, strain, or related issues....

Ah, Tinder, you strange and hilarious app. Tinder is basically an online dating site that’s not meant to be used to find Mr. Right as much as it is used for finding Mr. Right Now. Basically, it’s a hookup site—not that there’s anything wrong with that—so first impressions mean everything. A great picture might get you a second look (or a swipe right, in this case), but it’s the chat sessions where the magic really happens....

I’ve been asked a few times now to write down some tactics and suggestions for those of you out there who use short pimpled rubbers when playing table tennis. Now I would be the first to admit that I haven’t had a lot of experience (well, OK - make that none!) playing competitively with short pimpled rubber.

If you are in the retail business, a good retail store policies and procedures manual or template will provide a foundation to your success. But many managers struggle with how to do this. To create a good manual, you will need to answer a number of questions, such as what types of payment you’ll accept, what your pricing policy will be, and how you handle returns and exchanges. First, however, you need to determine when to produce this manual and how best to document it....

While money often is not the primary reason people decide to become doctors, money often factors into the decision when choosing a medical specialty. Due to a large amount of debt prospective physicians often incur during the many years of additional school and training, earning potential can be very important for some physician candidates. However, that can be balanced by a doctor’s preference for working with a certain type of patient and in a setting that is preferred....

Makeup has been part of cinema from its earliest years, with iconic screen acting legends like Lon Chaney (who designed his own makeup), thrilling audiences as ghoulish characters like the Phantom in 1925’s The Phantom of the Opera. Other memorable movie characters were brought to life with extraordinary makeup designs in films like 1931’s Frankenstein and 1939’s The Wizard of Oz. With makeup playing such an important role in creating memorable images on screen, it is surprising to learn that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, which awards the Oscars, did not have an official award for Best Makeup until the 54th Academy Awards in 1982....

A hole’s par rating always includes two putts, so a par-4 hole is one on which the expert golfer is expected to hit the fairway with her tee shot, hit the green with her second stroke, and then take two putts to get the ball into the hole....

’80s synth-pop/new wave band Berlin delivered a number of classic tunes of the era, establishing a powerhouse combination of the main songwriter John Crawford and alluring frontwoman Terri Nunn.
