![]() The New York-born, Los Angeles-bred artist began playing guitar when she was 10 years old and never strayed far from the instrument. That will help me grow, and playing with experienced musicians who will challenge me.This commitment to learning something new is something close to Cherry Glazerr leader Clementine Creevy's heart. There are a lot of really talented, creative musicians that I need to mingle with more. I want to learn from and grow with my peers. How do you hope to grow as a creative person? My friend showed me a meme of this goat on the top of a mountain and the goat is like “Where’s Derek? He said he’d be here.” then it zooms out and you see that the goat is on an impossibly narrow, high mountain that you wonder how on earth he climbed up, and it says “Man Fuck Derek”. What are some of your favorite Internet “memes” of all time? I want to put on a photography exhibit and I want to record a pop album and I want to skateboard. I really want to learn how to surf, play sax and paint. What are some new hobbies you would like to take on? I’m passionate about spreading awareness about gender inequality and all that jazz. Well I definitely identify as a feminist and I take a women’s studies class. What’s a serious side of you that people are unlikely to know about? Either in terms of interests, hobbies, or personality? I feel like it’s way too easy to get a limb stuck and chopped off in there. I have an irrational fear of revolving doors. What kind of person were you in high school? When I’m watching movies at my boyfriend/bass player’s house. I’m kind of a night owl so I’m usually out pretty late until I’m exhausted, so when I get home I just flop on my bed and crash out. I went and saw him last week at the Largo in LA and he was insanely hilarious. I’ve been listening to a lot of WTF with Marc Maron and that makes me really happy. I like listening to podcasts when I’m alone. What activities do most enjoy doing alone?ĭrinking. I would participate in the 2nd wave, go see Sly and The Family Stone, and see Angela Davis speak. Obviously I can’t speak firsthand, but it feels like there was a sense of freedom that we’ve lost due to rapidly advancing technology. If you had to live in a past time, what do you think would be the most fun era and why? She’s a fantastic writer, brilliant comedian, and she shreds on guitar in Sleater Kinney. ![]() Whose career would you most like to emulate?Ĭarrie Brownstein fucking kills it. Haha I don’t listen to anything specific when I’m driving, but lately I’ve been jamming on Blonde Redhead a bunch. What famous person dead or living do most wish you could have as a roommate?īell Hooks. ![]() So it has been extremely tough to stay in school and do well, but I did it because I appreciate my education immensely and go to a wonderful school with wonderful teachers. We started playing shows about two years ago, and in the beginning when we started gaining traction, people in the music industry kept saying, “What are you still doing in school?! Drop out or graduate early!” That was certainly tempting because I manage my band, along with my friend and drummer (she’s also a senior in high school) we play shows every week and go on tour frequently I’m a (very very minor) character in the TV series Transparent and I dabble in modeling. I’m proud of my ability to balance school and the band. ![]() What are you most proud of so far in terms of your career? Recording is very stressfubut completely rewarding. Right now I’m writing our second album and playing locally. Hopefully we’ll be gearing up for a world tour with a huge tour bus and roadies! Hopefully in five years I will be preparing to release our 3rd or 4th record. I want to travel the world playing music. Where do you hope to be professionally in 5 years? The guys told me they wanted to put out my album, so I formed Cherry Glazerr and then we started recording and playing shows. Tracks started getting passed around, and the label directors at Burger Records stumbled upon them. When I was fifteen, I started making pretty low fidelity demos in my room on GarageBand and uploaded them to Soundcloud under the name Clembutt. Here, to go along with some exclusive pics shot by photographer John Michael Fulton, we ask Creevy questions about art and life. Their creation, " Had Ten Dollaz," is straight proof that Creevy is a legit rock star, full stop. Last year, Saint Laurent Creative Director and arbiter of cool Hedi Slimane tapped Creevy and her band to write a track specifically for his women's fashion show. Creevy is the guitarist and lead singer of the band Cherry Glazerr, and is built in the mold of feminist rock saviors like Kathleen Hanna and Corin Tucker. girl who knows what she wants and is on her way to getting it.

In the episode " Dora Saves the Mermaids", he revealed that he "likes swiping." He has a New York accent and lives in a burrow on top of Blueberry Hill. It's also shown that he rarely knows the full importance of what he's taken for example, he had no idea the aforementioned gift was for Dora's puppy. Compounding the confusion is the fact that, given the right reason, for example, that the item in question is a present for Dora's puppy, he'll return items he has taken, no matter how much effort he went through to get them. Until recently, it was unclear if he swipes merely for the joy of swiping, or from a desire to annoy and/or frustrate Dora. Swiper's motive for theft is patently childish he never seems actually to want the object he takes, since he almost immediately throws it away to hide the item from Dora (prompting her to ask the audience to help her find it). His white eyes and black pupils are concealed behind a blue do-rag/mask, matching his gloves. Swiper's pelt is primarily an orange burgundy creme, with highlights on his eyebrows, the top of his snout, undercarriage, and the end of his tail. He then gloats, "You're too late! You'll never find it/them/your/the/that/those now!") Usually, she prevails, and Swiper slinks away, snapping his fingers and saying, "Oh, man!" in some occasions, Swiper, however, gets to the item before Dora has a chance to repeat the phrase. To prevent Swiper from succeeding, Dora must repeat the phrase, " Swiper, no swiping!" 3 times. Clever as he is, Swiper never manages to take Dora completely by surprise a whisking sound is (almost) always audible just prior to his appearances, due to leafs or other objects that may collide with him. As his name implies, Swiper swipes or attempts to swipe key items that help Dora on her adventures. He is a 10 (9 for the first 50 episodes) year old sneaky orange fox who is easily recognized by his blue mask and gloves and his love for swiping anything that he happens to come upon. Swiper is the overall main antagonist (and sometimes the anti-hero) in the television series and the secondary antagonist of Dora and the Lost City of Gold and appears in almost every episode. ![]() Swiper’s upcoming catchphrase in the 2023 reboot Swiper when he successfully swiped something You're too late! (You'll never find/get it/them/the/your/that/those now!/I got it! I got it I got it!)
![]() Your group would profit from you having ways to deal with more than one enemy at a time, and since damage AoE's are out because of character theme, I would strongly suggest that you pick one of the spells above (hypnotic pattern or careful fear). IMO fear can fit well a less violent theme too ( ''don't waste your lives, flee before it's too late'', or sth like that a compassionate sincere voice can still inflict fear if it's laying down an ugly truth to the enemies). This is because fear will get a lot of value out of the opportunity attacks, and you would need to cast it carefully to avoid friendly fire on the paladin and the summons. Now, if the druid plans on using conjure spells often (which would be a good idea since the party is a bit light in the melee department), I would pick fear and the careful metamagic instead of hypnotic pattern. The fact that your paladin friend went with oath of devotion means that you could probably pick it without having to invest in the careful metamagic (because the devotion's level 7 aura makes your paladin and nearby allies immune to charm, and hypnotic pattern is essentially a charm spell combined with the fact that your group is not melee heavy). Hypnotic pattern both suits your less violent theme and is a great spell at the same time. And even then The Sorcery Points are probably better spent for Twinning I agree that Quicken is only good if he has a spectacular cantrip. Mage armor says "base AC becomes 13 + its Dexterity modifier." Where do you get "+3" from that? Spells suggestion, hypnotic pattern, haste, eventually greater invisibility and or banishmentSpiritual Weapon is out, since it's a deadly weapon. Even without heighten spell hypnotic pattern is a fairly solid 3rd level spell. Some would argue it works with spells like hypnotic pattern on all targets, check with your DM if the answer is yes. Heighten Spell can give a single creature disadvantage on the save, suggestion, banishment both can remove a foe from combat making the fight easier. If you were a Sorceradin.(sorcerer paladin multiclass) it'd be fine, quicken a hold person then full attack. Quicken isn't that good, you can only cast one spell on your turn unless one of the spells is a cantrip. +3 to ac constantly is better then +5 for a round on the fly. To begin with spiritual weapon(lvl2) is a solid choice, its a bonus action to cast and is free damage, also unless you're getting armor from somewhere else, take mage armor before shield. ![]() Neighbors, community organizations and cultural institutions are working with City agencies and those who frequent these spaces to bring interactive art installations and play structures new stewardship approach more regular activities and events along with food and drink options and innovative workforce development partnerships. The Civic Center Commons (“the Commons”) is a collective name for the UN Plaza, Civic Center Plaza, and Fulton Street between the Asian Art Museum and the San Francisco Main Public Library. Civic Center Commons is a strategic effort led by the City of San Francisco and many partners to foster a sense of community in the heart of the City’s central public spaces and to create a connected, inclusive “commons” for people who live, work and visit the area. The Arts Commission received funding from the Office of Economic and Workforce Development to bring temporary public art to Civic Center Plaza as part of the Civic Center Commons Initiative. The installation consists of 40, 6.5-foot identical black figurative sculptures, each approximately 300 lbs, that stand upright with the figures holding their “hands up” in a precise formation that aligns with the symmetry of the surrounding architecture. I nvisible Man and the Masque of Blackness was originally conceived for the grounds of the historic Somerset House in London, which shares a similar government context and architectural characteristics of San Francisco’s Civic Center. During the event, the public will have an opportunity to hear from the artist while enjoying food, drinks, music, and other free family-friendly activities under the lights of City Hall. ![]() ![]() For the next Civic Center Commons 3 rd Thursdays Block Party event on July 19 from 5-9 p.m., the public is invited to experience internationally renowned artist Zak Ové’s temporary public art installation Invisible Man and the Masque of Blackness, which will be on view through early November. ![]() You cannot tether an infant seat to prevent rebounding. Personally, I don't think it's particularly important for small kids and babies, but I do prefer it for older/heavier rear facing children. Crash forces are strongest when the seat is rotating downward, not rebounding. Rebounding, or cocooning, looks scary in crash tests but it actually means the seat is performing properly. Some people like it, others think it's not necessary. I haven't seen or used the Combi Shuttle in person, so someone else will have to chime in on that one.ĭifferent people will have different opinions on rebounding. The original 22lb Snugride is still sold as well. They released new identical looking models that rated from 32lbs and later to 35lbs, and during that release they changed the name from SafeSeat to Snugride 32/35. Then they came out with the Safeseat, which goes to 30lbs. There is the standard Snugride, which typically goes to 22lbs. The Snugride/Safeseat thing can be confusing because Graco sort of screwed up when it came to names. And like I said, if your 2010 model is similar inside to my 2006 model, then the Chaperone is not safe because it does not fit properly. Remember that all seats pass standards and no seat is safer than another provided you install and use it correctly. It's easy to install and is just as safe as the Chaperone or the Peg. ![]() If you don't like the Keyfit, then I agree that the Snugride 35 is probably something else to look at. I think it's a ridiculously overpriced seat that doesn't really have any perks to justify the pricetag. I dislike the Pegs for the same reasons the previous posters stated, mostly being it's a pain to install and very easy to get wrong. So if the 2010 models have similar seat size to the 2006 models then no, a Chaperone won't work for you because the base does not fit on the seat. The headrest cannot be adjusted width wise if I remember correctly, and it is already bothering her 3 month old. Plus I couldn't see over the seat when it was snapped into the base. It is freaking HUGE and when installed, the base hung off the backseat of my CR-V by about a third.way too much to be usable and safe. I liked the look and the feel of the Chaperone until my friend got one. ![]() Your files are still available for you if you move or rename them outside Exposure.

Coke-bottle glasses and a headlamp give him the appearance of a near-blind spelunker, or some mad genius tucked away in the desert capable of reckless, dangerous things. Real men play with steel balls.”Īrnold’s grey hair hangs in a ponytail down his back. Little babies play games with plastic balls. He is technically retired, but Arnold spends his days overseeing his machines, uninterested in common pursuits of the post-employed. ![]() Walk through the Hall of Fame and play fifty years of history, all for fifty cents a pop. Then came dot-matrix displays, animated figures like Funhouse’s Rudy, and holograms. Classics like William’s Pinbot and Gorgar talked to the players using digitized clips. Starting in 1977, tables began to use solid-state components, meaning a small CPU ran the board, creating digial audio and more complex scoring algorithms. You’ll find no silicon chips here: all action and sound comes from a confluence of earthly materials and physics. The feeling hits hardest while walking down the aisle of electro-mechanicals, tables like Aquarius and Captain Fantastic, from the 1960s and 70s. To stand in front of a pinball table is to be transported to a time when your immediate surroundings were all that mattered Arnold’s oasis holds one-hundred fifty-two pins, from Heavy Hitter (1947) to AC/DC (2011). Cruise by your local watering hole if you’re very lucky you may find one beat-up table in the corner. As it turns out this is exactly what it is: an airy warehouse filled with tables, aligned in some kind of ever-shifting order. Finally, in 2006, he opened the doors to his own kind of pleasure palace: The Pinball Hall of Fame.įrom the street, the building looks like a nondescript storage facility. Over the next decade he gathered and restored over 1000 tables, hosting ‘Fun Nights’ for locals and donating the proceeds to charity. He moved to Paradise, Nevada in 1990, just a mile from that clutch of casinos inhabited by fake Elvises and real addicts.īut he couldn’t leave his machines behind. After having opened a popular arcade in Michigan in the mid-70s, the arcade bust sent him west. Tim Arnold arrived with a very different goal. People arrive with many goals in mind: win money, eat decadent food, marvel at near-naked bodies, shimmering and contorted. Even the name of its main stretch–The Strip–provokes. Game of Thrones? Really? That’s not why I went there, so I ventured deeper into the building hoping to find some of the games I remembered from my wasted youth spent in bowling alley arcade rooms.Las Vegas is a city of lights, loss, flesh, and fantasy. You know, the kinds you’d likely see if you walked into any “arcade” that still had one or two pinball machines just for decor. When walking in the front door, you’re welcomed by several newer pinball games. And since it’s a non-profit, excess revenues go to non-denominational charities. It’s all pure pinball (and a few arcade novelty games) from the past. ![]() There are no ‘ticket spitters’ here (aka kiddie casinos or redemption). Since it is a non-profit museum, older games from the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s are the prevelant, as this was the ‘heyday’ of pinball. The games belong to one club member (Tim Arnold), and range from 1950s up to 1990s pinball machines. A not-for-profit corporation was established to further this cause. The Pinball Hall of Fame is an attempt by the members of the Las Vegas Pinball Collectors Club to house and display the world’s largest pinball collection, open to the public. Here’s a description from the Hall of Fame website. It was totally worth the 10 minute drive to get here. ![]() The Pinball Hall of Fame is located on Tropicana Ave, just a short distance from the Las Vegas Strip. Here I am entering the nondescript entrance of the building. Most of the pictures in the article were taken by Sharon as I was far too busy playing pinball games to take any pictures myself. I have our readers to thank as this was one of the suggestions when I asked about places to see in Las Vegas. This time was all mine and I made sure to take advantage of every second until I felt guilty about keeping her there any longer. More accurately, I should say that this was MY trip to the Pinball Hall of Fame as Sharon really couldn’t have cared less about the visit ( Note from Sharon: true story! But you went to Frankie’s Tiki Bar with me, so…). I was going through my pictures of last year and I realized that I never wrote about our trip to the Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas. ![]() “We were not sure of what the response would be. Some months after Chhota Bheem went on air, Green Gold set up a booth at a charity event in Hyderabad where the company is based. Once Chhota Bheem was acquired by Turner International for Pogo, the first season continued for 52 episodes, a record on Indian television. In those days, children’s TV was ruled by foreign content and the only Indian animated show to have seen light of day then was The Adventures of Tenali Raman, that also for barely 13 episodes, in 2003. So we waited for the TV industry to mature while we worked on improvements,” Chilaka says. “Initially we were either getting rejected or getting offers which were so bad that accepting them would have been suicidal for our fledgling company. “That was September 18, 2003, when the idea and the concept were finalised.”īut the world got to meet Bheem only on April 6, 2008, when the first episode was beamed on Pogo. ![]() Like any doting parent, Chilaka remembers the day when Chhota Bheem was born. “I often have dreams featuring Bheem and myself where I would be telling him not to go too near the well while playing or he is throwing the ball to me to catch. “Children actually believe that Chhota Bheem exists!” says Chilaka. The greatest compliment Chilaka received was when a friend’s son, on being introduced as the uncle who made Chhota Bheem, asked him how he managed to give the little laddoo-powered hero his internal organs like heart and lungs. If I can do 10 per cent of what he did, I would be more than satisfied.” “It’s mind-boggling what he has achieved in an age when there was so little technology. I read up where he would spend time in the city and frequented those places.” The connection Chilaka felt to Disney made him quit everything after completing his masters in computer science and get into animation. “Walt Disney had designed the logo of our university long before he created Mickey Mouse. It was a coincidence that he went for higher education to the University of Missouri in Kansas City where his idol spent the early years of his career. “Walt Disney inspired me to get into animation,” says the 40-year-old Hyderabadi. The founder and CEO of Green Gold Animation, the creators of Chhota Bheem, Chilaka is the man who conceived India’s answer to Mickey Mouse. Why is Chhota Bheem such a hit with millions of kids, and even some adults? Rajiv Chilaka may not have the answer but he can’t be more happy. Chhota Bheem got a new look in the most recent film, Chhota Bheem Himalayan Adventure, which released in January this year |
