George Washington as Master Mason
This text is part of Parks' Historical Signs Project and can be found postedwithin the park.
One of six statues in the city's parks of the nation's first president, George Washington (1732-1799), this sculpture by Donald De Lue (1897-1988) has its origins in two earlier projects by the sculptor.
Born on February 22, 1732 in Westmoreland County, Virginia, Washington was born into a prosperous family, and was privately educated. He gained early experience as a land surveyor, and then joined the militia, serving as an officer in the French and Indian Wars from 1755-1758. Rising to the rank of colonel, he resigned his post, married Martha Dandridge (1731-1802), and returned as a gentleman farmer to the family plantation at Mount Vernon, Virginia, where he resided with his wife, Martha.
He soon reentered public life, and served in succession as a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses (1759-1774), and as a member of the First and Second Continental Congresses (1774-1775). Upon the outbreak of the American Revolution in 1775, Washington was made Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army. His military prowess and inspirational leadership held the colonial armies together against overwhelming odds, and secured the evacuation and defeat of the British in 1783.
Washington again retired to Mount Vernon, but his dissatisfaction with the new provisional government, caused him to resume an active role, and in 1787 he presided over the second federal constitutional convention in Philadelphia. He was then unanimously chosen first president of the United States, and was inaugurated at Federal Hall in New York City on April 30, 1789. Washington was reelected to a second term in 1893, declined a third term, and retired from political life in 1797. Often referred to as "the father of our country," Washington is universally regarded as having been instrumental in winning the American Revolution and in the establishment of the new nation.
This statue honors George Washington's close association with the Free and Accepted Masons, a fraternal order founded in 1717, and dedicated to human liberty, religious tolerance, and fellowship. He was installed as first master of Alexandria Lodge on April 28, 1788. The first version of this statue was created by De Lue in 1959 for the Louisiana Lodge. A full-size faux-patined plaster model was displayed at the Masonic Pavilion of the New York World's Fair of 1964-65 in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park.
Following the fair, the sculptor was commissioned to create this replica in bronze, and with the assistance of former Parks Commissioner and Fair President Robert Moses (1888-1981), a site was selected for permanent placement near the former Masonic Center. The statue, cast in Italy, and positioned on a pedestal of North Carolina pink granite, was dedicated on June 3, 1967, the same day in which the World's Fair Corporation returned the park back to the City. Additional copies of the statue were installed at the Masonic Hospital in Wallingford, Connecticut and at the Detroit Civic Center in Michigan.
In the spring of 1999 the sculpture was repaired and conserved through a city capital contract, as part of the general redesign and renovation of the core area of the park. The surrounding landscape was upgraded with a circular paving, new lawns and cherry trees evoking the apocryphal childhood tale in which Washington's honesty was confirmed through his confession of chopping down such a tree. Today, the restored monument of the man who led the new republic watches over a park patronized each year by diverse users, who embody the freedoms and opportunity for which he fought.

Farewell Candlestick
December 28, 2013 Luanne Dietz
The city of San Francisco said farewell to Candlestick Park in what was an exciting win for the 49ers. A few weeks ago, Mike Kepka and I started to look for a personal way to tell the bigger story of goodbye. Meet Don Figone. Don and his family have 12 season tickets and will not be repurchasing them down at the new stadium in Santa Clara. Passed down three generations, the Figone family has had season tickets since Kezar. Monday night it wasn't just the final game of the season for Don, it was the end of an era for his family.
Leading up to the final game of the regular season, we spent a Sunday at Candlestick Park hanging out with the Forever Faithful. The Niners are known in the NFL to have one of the most colorful, loud fan bases of all time. It was a blast to get to know them and capture their passion.

The iPhone Xs and Xs Max is the next generation in Apple's iPhone lineup, moving the line forward with the original iPhone X aesthetic. "Today, we're going to take iPhone X to the next level," said Tim Cook. "I'm excited to show you what is, by far, the most advanced iPhone we have ever created." That's the ten S, by the way, not "excess" – no matter how much you wish it was.
The back of this iPhone is "surgical-grade stainless steel," said Phil Schiller. It also has a screen with a new mix of glass, "the most durable" glass to have ever been used in a smartphone. It'll be available in three different metal colors: Gold, Silver, and Space Gray.
This iPhone Xs will have IP68 water resistance, and it'll have a display that's extremely similar to its predecessor. That's a 5.8-inch display "Super Retina" OLED with 2436 x 1125 pixels inside it (2.7 million pixels) at 458 ppi.
This model has a larger relative, too. The iPhone Xs Max has a 6.5-inch display, OLED, Super Retina, 458 ppi, with both Dolby Vision and HDR10. Both the regular and the Max version have that same Dolby Vision and HDR10, as it were, and both have displays with a 60-percent greater dynamic range of colors than the standard iPhone X.
Both devices have an A12 Bionic Chip inside. Both have a new image processor and the ability to process 15-percent faster than devices with the A11. ALSO NOTE: This is Apple's first 7-nanometer chip in an iPhone. More details on this chip can be found in photos in the gallery in this article immediately if not soon!
These smartphones will both be released at the same time this year, replacing the iPhone X as the top-tier smartphone in the Apple lineup. iPhone Xs will be available from $999 (around R17000) on September 28th. Pre-orders begin soon at local retailers, while iStore has confirmed offers to customers through its revised new iPhone every year plan.
Get a new iPhone every year – In partnership with FNB Credit Card, iStore will be launching a new payment plan for iPhone. The plan will allow customers to receive a 50% trade-in value* for their iPhone after 12 months thus enabling them to easily trade-in and upgrade to a new iPhone every year.

I never thought I'd witness the start of an Olympic Games in my hometown, Cardiff. But that's exactly what I saw today as Team GB's women's football team beat New Zealand 1-0 in the London 2012 opener at Cardiff's Millennium stadium.
The game was a great advert for women's football. The action was fast and furious. And it was magical to see the first score of the 2012 Games – for Great Britain.
We're back tomorrow evening to see Brazil's men taking on New Zealand.
Below: four year old Owen sleeps through the action.

Das Frühbyzantinische Kontrollstempelsystem war im Byzantinischen Reich ein Verfahren zur Prüfung und Kennzeichnung des Silbergehaltes verschiedener Gegenstände.

Verfahren

Insgesamt wurden auf den einzelnen Schmuck- und Gebrauchsgegenständen bis zu fünf verschiedene Stempel angebracht. Nach Anfertigung der Silberwaren wurden diese zentral in Konstantinopel von den dazu bestimmten Regierungsbeamten kontrolliert. Die Anbringung der Silberstempel erfolgte anschließend mittels einer Punze. Über die Datierung der Kontrollstempel ist also nur eine ungefähre Angabe zum Zeitpunkt der Herstellung eines aufgefundenen Artefaktes möglich.

Die ersten verwendeten Stempel stammen aus Regierungszeit von Kaiser Anastasios I. (491–518) und werden "Imperial" genannt. Auf allen bislang bekannt gewordenen Gegenständen dieser Zeit sind jeweils nur vier Stempel angebracht, wobei mindestens eine der Standardformen wiederholt wird. Ab der Zeit Justinians I. (527–565) beträgt die Zahl der Stempel bei gefundenen Silberschätzen stets fünf.

Die einzelnen Stempel

Es sind fünf Stempel nachweisbar, die von verschiedenen Beamten eingesetzt wurden und sich in drei Kategorien unterteilen lassen:

 Der runde Stempel
Das Stempelbild enthält die Büste des jeweils regierenden Kaisers und (seit Justinian I.) eine griechische Inschrift, die meist den Personennamen, gelegentlich auch den Titel des Beamten wiedergibt, der den Stempel führte.
 Der quadratische und der sechseckige Stempel
Beide sind in ihrer Art ähnlich und enthalten zumeist dasselbe Kaisermonogramm. Sie weisen jedoch stets unterschiedliche Namens- und Titelinschriften auf und gehörten also zwei wohl gleichrangigen Beamten, die jedoch nicht in jedem Fall dasselbe Kaisermonogramm führten.
 Der hochrechteckige Stempel mit bogenförmigem Abschluss und der kreuzförmige Stempel
Der bogen- und der kreuzförmige Stempel gehören zusammen und liefern wertvolle Datierungskriterien für eine engere zeitliche Eingrenzung der Artefakte.
Der bogenförmige Stempel enthält stets eine Büste, die mit der Kaiserbüste des runden Stempels identisch ist. Unter der Büste erscheint das sogenannte Sekundärmonogramm und seitlich davon Namens- oder Titelinschriften des Stempelinhabers.
Der kreuzförmige Stempel setzt erst in der Zeit Justinians I. ein und zeigt nur das Sekundärmonogramm und den Namen oder Titel des Stempelinhabers. Das Sekundärmonogramm stimmt in der Regel mit dem des bogenförmigen Stempels überein.

Stempelführende

Der Inhaber des runden Stempels war offenbar einer der höchsten Würdenträger des Reiches, denn er führte das Kaiserportrait. Die Inhaber des sechseckigen und des quadratischen Stempels führten in der Regel dasselbe Kaisermonogramm, sie waren also von ähnlichem Rang. Die zwei Beamten der letzten Gruppe führten beide das Monogramm des amtierenden comes sacrarum largitionum also des für die Einnahmen und Ausgaben des Staates Verantwortlichen. Doch da der Inhaber des bogenförmigen Stempels zusätzlich das Kaiserportrait gebrauchen durfte, war er der ranghöhere. Er war also sowohl dem comes sacrarum largitionum als auch (wie der Inhaber des Rundstempels) dem Kaiser selbst verantwortlich. Der Inhaber des kreuzförmigen Stempels führte nur das Sekundärmonogramm des jeweils amtierenden comes sacrarum largitionum.

Fire kills 100-year-old man: reports
Miniature Railroad Club of York asks for help after slow holiday open house
Dawn J. Sagert
York Dispatch
The Miniature Railroad Club of York closed its holiday open house over the weekend after a slower season than the club is used to seeing since it began offering these glimpses to the public in 1943.
The open house at the headquarters in York City drew far fewer people than usual during the coronavirus pandemic, according to the group's Facebook page.
Club member Ivan Frantz says the club is always interested in having new members.
"If you want to learn how to do things — build track, lay track, do scenery, build things, how to make your locomotive run properly — a club is a great place to do that," said Frantz.
The annual event began the weekend after Thanksgiving and continued through the second weekend in January.
The club, with about 40 members, meets on Mondays at 381 Wheatfield St., with the first week of the month being a business meeting only. For more information, reach out to them at www.facebook.com/mrrcy.
The club is asking for donations to help make up the decrease in revenue from its only major fundraiser of the year.


Titirangi Primary School sits on it's third site, built in 1939, developed from the fire struck ruins of the first public school in Auckland built in 1860. We are located in the beautiful, bush-clad setting of the Waitakere Ranges in West Auckland. At Titirangi Primary School we aim to "Inspire Every Learner To Thrive and Succeed". We do this by taking a shared responsibility to ensure we are providing our students with innovative learning opportunities within a supportive and caring environment. We believe in every student, in getting to know them well and aiming to instil a love of learning through the school values as 'Achievers', 'Thinkers', 'Connected', 'Well-rounded' and 'Respectful'. The culture of the school is underpinned by Ako Tahi|Learn Together, Whanaungatanga|Relationships, Manaakitanga|Rights and Responsibilities and Mahi Tahi|Collaboration. Relationships are important to us and we have a genuine commitment to working in partnership with our students, their parents and whānau so we can deliver the very best outcomes. The collaboration within the Kōituitui Kāhui Ako is exciting as we strengthen connections across our communities for our schools, teachers, students.


I tries to psot a pic in my glass gallery and it said i was over my quota and I don't have that much in it! Can any one explain this to me.
Yep thats what it told me, but as I only have a small amount in my album I wondered if it was a glitch. So must have gone down but we can keep what we already have. No problem so long as I know I can't put anything else in. Just grateful for the fact that it is there to use.
Thanks Anne. I wasn't whinging by the way! Grateful it's there.
I never imagined you were whinging Pat - I'm just glad you flagged it up. I do visit the gallery several times a day but I don't check for reset quotas - not something I expect to happen very often! :lol: I shall keep a close eye on what's happening for a few days to make sure the server behaves.
Tony H in NZ sorry to say I have the same problem as Pat, I am over the limit.
If I may ask another question, the row of flags that are on the gallery pages, is it right mine load up one at a time and the gallery page does not load till they all show, is this how it is ment to work?.
Hope this is in the right place.
Hmmm it's reset again. I'll go poke around and see what's happening. Thanks for the heads' up Tony!
As to the flags, mine are there always - probably loaded from the cache - the flags are actually fast links to be able to change the language the board is displayed in for our multi-lingual users.
I'll have a look at what's happening and start a new thread in the Cafe. Can anyone who is having problems with GlassGallery add comments there please? Many thanks.

La disciplina infantil inclou els mètodes emprats per prevenir problemes conductuals futurs en infants. La paraula disciplina s'entén com a impartir coneixement i habilitats, és a dir, ensenyar. En sentit general, disciplina és la instrucció sistemàtica a un deixeble. Disciplinar significa instruir una persona a seguir un determinat codi de conducta.

Els progenitors fan servir la disciplina per ensenyar als descendents sobre expectatives, directrius i principis. La disciplina ajuda els infants a distingir allò que és correcte d'allò que no ho és i mantenir-se sa i estalvi. Pot incloure recompenses i càstigs per ensenyar autocontrol, augmentar comportaments desitjables i disminuir comportaments no desitjables. Mentre el propòsit de disciplina infantil és desenvolupar i consolidar hàbits socials desitjables, l'objectiu final fomentar seny i moral per tal que l'infant desenvolupi i mantingui l'autodisciplina al llarg de la vida.

Com que els valors, les creences, l'educació, els costums i la cultura de cadascú varia tant amb l'edat i temperament de l'infant, els mètodes de disciplina infantil també són molt variats. La disciplina infantil és un tema que veu d'un ampli ventall camps relacionats, com ara la criança, la pràctica professional conductista, la psicologia del desenvolupament, feina social, i diverses perspectives religioses. En anys recents, els avenços en la comprensió de la criança d'afecció han proporcionat noves maneres de comprendre els aspectes teòrics, pràctics i clínics de l'efectivitat i els resultats dels mètodes de criança.

Els darrers anys s'ha debatut a la societat occidental l'ús del càstig corporal sobre infants en general, i s'ha augmentat l'atenció al concepte de "criança positiva" per tal d'encoratjar i recompensar el bon comportament. La consistència, la fermesa i el respecte són tots ells components importants de la disciplina positiva. L'objectiu de la disciplina positiva és ensenyar, formar i guiar els infants perquè aprenguin i practiquin l'autocontrol i perquè desenvolupin l'habilitat de gestionar les emocions, i prendre decisions assenyades pel que fa al comportament personal.

Hi ha diferències culturals notables entre les diverses formes de disciplina infantil. L'avergonyiment és una forma de disciplina i modificació de comportament. Els infants viuen la disciplina i la vergonya de maneres diferents, segons la cultura en què creixen. En general, això depèn de si la societat valora l'individualisme o el col·lectivisme.

"It's hard getting to the States" says singer/guitarist/mandolinist Scott Pringle of Saskatchewan-based band The Dead South.
We are downstairs in the green room of Nashville's Cannery Ballroom, chatting while Pringle and his bandmates writhe out of sweat-soaked white shirts and black trousers, and bandleader Nate Hilts's mother collects the boys' dirty laundry, beaming with pride.
At first Pringle's comment seems like a typical Dead South joke: What's so hard about getting to the States from Canada? Just about any southbound highway should do it, right? But as he continues, his meaning becomes clearer.
Well, mom may still be doing their laundry, but there's no question that The Dead South have arrived on this, their first full-scale US tour. From the moment they took the stage of the Ballroom, they held the near-capacity crowd in their clutches and didn't let go until the last encore. Their high-energy mix of folk-punk-bluegrass came off more like a rock show than a pickers' jam, thanks both to their larger-than-life stage presence, and to a precision-timed light show, replete with vintage Edison lightbulbs in front of each bandmember's microphone and old Hollywood fresnels pulsating through silk backdrop screens embroidered with the band's signature antler/tree-branch motif.
It was more than just clever set design, though, that made the show feel so big. The band's furious attack on their acoustic instruments and growling vocal harmonies infused the set with a wall-of-sound vibe that belied the minimalism of their setup. Driven only occasionally by a steer-horn-adorned kick-drum at the feet of banjoist Colton "Crawdaddy" Crawford, the Dead South conjured up an unholy racket out of wooden soundboards and steel strings that filled the Ballroom to the rafters and sent the notoriously indifferent Nashville audience into fits of hooting, hollering, and hand-waving. They closed to two encores, each member finally walking off the stage separately, leaving Crawford alone under a single spotlight to drive his frenetic banjo playing into the crowd's ears for another 60 seconds or so before he too set down his instrument and exited stage left.
As the legend goes, Crawford showed up at Hilts' university flop-house sporting a banjo, which he had just recently bought and barely knew how to play. The introduction of the banjo kicked off a house jam, and in the spirit of the night, Hilts jotted down a few lyrics, which eventually found their way into the song "Every Man Needs a Chew". A few months of woodshedding and open mics later, Kenyon and Pringle joined the band, and the Dead South was born.
Since then the band has earned a reputation as one of the hardest-working acts on the indie scene, touring incessantly and racking up over a thousand club and festival dates, as well as countless informal jams with other bands on the circuit. And as their reputation has grown, so has their command of their craft, their command of the stage, and the iconoclastic nature of their look and sound. Critics have started to pay attention, and in the viral wake of director Zach Wilson's ingenious video for their song "In Hell I'll be in Good Company" (which at the time of this writing has racked up over 83 million views), their fan base has been multiplying exponentially.
To say the least. The Dead South are about as far from bluegrass as you can get while still being categorized as such, and their outlier status has been part of the secret to their success, as fans of the genre love nothing more than to debate whether a band like TDS is really bluegrass — and that debate has only fueled the fire of their notoriety. Trolls aside, the band have earned their membership in the club with their latest album Illusion and Doubt (Curve Music), which peaked at #5 on the Billboard US Bluegrass charts, and also placed respectably on the iTunes Country charts.
As with any great musical act, though, what sets these boys apart from the the pack is the hold they take on the imagination. Stepping out in wide-brimmed hats, snap suspenders, and turn-of-the-century neckwear, and proceeding to sing surreal and raucous tales replete with references to whiskey, murder, the Devil, the Civil War, and all the usual tropes of old-time music, the Dead South manage to simultaneously butcher American history and lampoon the old-school posturing of so much of the Americana scene, while at the same time making you feel like you are witnessing one of the most authentically American bands on the indie stage. It's an ingenious sleight-of-hand work of performance art, one that hearkens back to minstrel shows of yore, where satire and earnestness went hand in hand, often indistinguishable from each other. Punctuating their act with the occasional finger-snapping dance routine, the passing-around of an old bottle of whiskey, and the cracking-open of red-white-and-blue beer cans, the band have developed a sense of comic timing that only adds to their Through-the-Looking-Glass take on American folk music and culture.
However you describe them, and however you categorize their music, one thing is for sure: The Dead South are on the rise, and they are engaging fiercely loyal fans around the world. Clutching a set list thrown from the stage after the show was one Robbie Watson, bearded and bedecked as if he could be a member of the band himself. In certain East Nashville circles, Watson's turn-of-the-century attire probably wouldn't bat an eyelid, but his turning up at a show dressed like the band speaks to a new level of fandom, the kind enjoyed by acts like the Avett Brothers, Taylor Swift, and the surviving members of the Grateful Dead.
Cool indeed. Though their home might be thousands of miles away in Canada's Great White North, The Dead South seemed very much at ease — and in command — this October night in downtown Nashville. It's not easy making an impression in Music City, but the Dead South, after five years of hard touring — and countless hours honing their craft, their aesthetic, and their surrealist American mythos — walked off the stage of the Cannery Ballroom as conquerors. And politely handed their sweaty dress shirts to Nate's mom for cleaning.

As per Mo, her sibling Gerald who confessed to molesting Mo'Nique contacted Oprah to talk on youngster predators, as he was one himself. The thought was then pitched that Mo'Nique would come on the show too.
According to Mo, she disclosed to O that her sibling was a "con-artist" and needed nothing to do with the meeting. She additionally communicated that she favored that the meeting not occur and Oprah supposedly ASSURED her that the sitdown would be dropped.
Regardless of that, Mo says her sibling was expedited close by her other sibling, her dad, AND her mom.
"She never said my mother was coming on that show," said Mo. "Because if Oprah Winfrey would have said she was having my mother on that show, I would have said shut it down.[…]
Eventually, Mo said she needs a PUBLIC apology from Oprah.
Until that woman says let me apologize to you publically it'll be till the day I leave this earth. Because what you did was malicious and it was intentional and it was ugly. Oprah Winfrey, you know what you need to do and stop hiding behind what you call negative comments because what people are beginning to do is see you for who you are."
She likewise said that she went up against Oprah at a past Oscars party at Alfre Woodard's home and asked her in front of EVERYONE including Angela Bassett and Regina King why Oprah had her mom on her show.
"How could you have my mother on my show? That's not what we discussed," Mo said to Oprah while recounting the nasty things fans said after the interview.
"She took the cowardly way out, she said 'If you think I did something wrong then I want to apologize.' You DID do something wrong, you maliciously [did] and had full intentions of having my parents on your show and not saying anything to me."
Mo isn't keeping down in this meeting; watch below.
Do YOU think she has a legitimate reason to have a problem with Oprah???
That is not all, in any case, Mo additionally talked on Steve Harvey. After already standing up for Steve from fans who celebrated in his talk show getting dropped," it would appear that Mo's had a difference in heart.
Mo revealed to Comedy Hype that she's "never seen so many cowards."
"I've never met so many cowards in our black men in show business. I've never met so many black men that have no goddamn backbone, and that bothers me," said Mo.
She additionally included that her sit down with Steve was vigorously altered, not for her wellbeing but rather for STEVE'S since he was berating the "white young men" in Hollywood.
"There's nothing I said that needs protection."
She said anyway that she disagreed with Hollywood removing his television show even though, "What you put out there comes back."
WHEW chile, the drama! What is YOUR opinion on Mo criticizing Oprah AND Steve Harvey???

Does Your Partners Income, Debt, Credit Scores, And How They Manage Their Money Matter?
I know it's not romantic to discuss money and love in the same article, let alone the same paragraph. Some women get uncomfortable when you start messing with their fantasy of finding Mr. Right by throwing in all that "business stuff." But ignoring the so-called "Business Stuff" will cause more suffering then you could ever imagine so get your heads out the love cloud and whip the love oozing from your eyes and listen up, relationships are businesses too!
Instead, me sounding the alarm, there should be countless women desperate to share their story about being taken advantage of financially or simply being unaware of just how devastating not managing your finances can be. Men have been burned for generations because they were the only breadwinners in the family, now all that has changed. Both men and women have something to lose, and they're both screaming, "Danger will Robinson…Danger!"
Should you care about your partner's credit history and the amount of their debt? If you're serious about owning anything of value together, these are important considerations.
At least care enough to talk about it. They may have a perfectly good excuse for being in financial turmoil, but if they don't, I'm not saying don't stay with them, I'm saying don't leave yourself wide open for them to bankrupt you too. That goes for women as well as men.
Women own stuff now! This is not the 1950's, 60's, or 70's. Women have retirement income, investments, equity in real estate, college funds, and life insurance policies. Don't allow love to blind you ladies and gentlemen. You'd be shocked by how fast you can go from retiring in comfort in Las Vegas and Florida to living with a roommate and eating cat food. Stay woke!

Is Being Happily Married About More Than Being In Love? What About Being Compatible?
I want to recognize all the couples who've been through thick, (Hell) and thin (Not so good times) and still managed to not only stay together but grow together.
Personally, I loved being married because I had a partner who knew how to be a wife, a partner, and a compliment. I was the one who didn't have it together. I was young and didn't have examples she did.
But it was a beautiful experience, and so I know what it feels like to have a great wife! And what it's like to have a great marriage. I think the real failure in marriage isn't the lack of friendship or lack of honest communication; I think we just choose the wrong partners from jump!
The most ignored attributes to look for in a partner is temperament. My wife had a complimentary temperament. For all of you out there who aspire to have a good marriage, please pay attention to that. Because too hot people will freakin' destroy each other. I'm not talking about hot passion; I'm talking hot-tempered. Or just incompatible.
Relationship are hard enough…but they are impossible when you're not truly compatible.

Cherry Glazerr / Palehound Velvet Underground, Toronto ON, February 20
Photo: Chris Gee
By Chris Gee
Fresh off the release of their third full-length record, Stuffed & Ready, Los Angeles-based Cherry Glazerr brought their bratty garage-punk to Toronto for a soldout Wednesday night show. Now a trio since the last time they played the Velvet Underground in 2017 (keyboardist Sasami Ashworth has departed), Cherry Glazerr have zeroed in on a tighter sound featuring heavier guitar work and bigger, more subversive choruses.
Boston band Palehound, led by Ellen Kempner, started off the night with boisterous guitar licks on the scraggly "Room" and the unflinching "Flowing Over," from their overlooked 2017 album A Place I'll Always Go. Unfortunately, Kempner's growling whispers were sometimes lost in the booming mix, but were later spot-on for their slinking, murderous new song "Killer," which was released a few days ago.
With giant inflatable cherries in the back, and some blinking, pokey sculptures around the stage, bandleader and guitarist-vocalist Clementine Creevy jaunted toward centre stage and began with "Ohio," the opening song on Stuffed & Ready. A venue-wide, squirming mosh pit really got going a few songs in for Creevy's "favourite song" to play, "Self Explained," especially for the crunchy breakdown toward the end. The crowd got even wilder for "Nurse Ratched," from 2017's Apocalipstick, and the malicious "White's Not My Color This Evening," from their debut, Haxel Princess.
Creevy started Cherry Glazerr when she was a teenager, and since then the project has seen several different lineup iterations as Creevy has grown into a more confident songwriter, tackling topics such as her own insecurities and the imbalance of power dynamics for women. These issues were addressed head-on with a sarcastic and cynical tone on Stuffed & Ready, singles "Daddi" and "Wasted Nun," both of which conjured up a chaotic reaction from the sweat-drenched crowd.
On Cherry Glazerr's studio albums, Creevy's vocals range from sweet and dreamy to occasional bursts of pouty shrieks and goofy cackles, but she does not quite have the same dynamic punch in a live setting, and her usual cheeky singing style was toned down more than expected. Creevy made up for it with her snarky charisma and ferociously meaty guitar riffage, which seemed to ooze onto the front row as she pranced around the stage. Creevy showed off some major shredding on the "metal version" of "Teenage Girl," and even more so on the double whammy ending of Apocalipstick's title track and "Sip O' Poison," where drummer Tabor Allen and bassist Devin O'Brien pummelled out the explosive backbeat with no shits given.
For the encore, Cherry Glazerr came back out to cover a faithful version of LCD Soundsystem's "Time to Get Away," sort of an odd choice seeing as most of the crowd seemed not to know the song, but nevertheless was surprisingly pulled off very sleekly. Before heading out, Creevy started the snappy riff from fan favourite "Told You I'd Be with the Guys," an empowering, bombastic song, perfect for one last perspiring hurrah.

Susan Sarandon Flat-Out Denies That She Ever Feuded With Julia Roberts
No bad blood here.
by Jennifer Gerson Uffalussy
In 1998, Susan Sarandon and Julia Roberts co-starred in the comedy-drama Stepmom, a film that explored the tensions between a stay-at-home mother (Sarandon) and her ex-husband's new, younger girlfriend, a fashion photographer (Roberts).
But the press tour for the movie did not focus not on the weepy plot. Instead, the world was fixated on the supposed feud between the two co-starring actresses. But now, Sarandon — nearly 20 years later and, conveniently co-starring in the aptly named Ryan Murphy–helmed FX drama Feud: Bette and Joan alongside Jessica Lange—is setting the record straight on her relationship with Roberts. Again.
Even at the time of the film's release, Sarandon called out the sexism that seemed to be fueling the claims of a catfight. "If you make a movie with a male star, everyone assumes you're f—ing. If it's a female star, everyone assumes you're fighting," Sarandon said when rumors of a feud first surfaced, dismissing any insistence that she and Roberts had any problems with each other.
Echoed Roberts at the time: "Actually, Susan and I were kinda hoping that people would say we were f—ing. Now that's delicious cocktail-party fodder. But this? Boring."
And this weekend, Sarandon took to Twitter to lay it all out once again. And with a simple tweet, two decades' worth of rumors met their end (hopefully).
Sarandon didn't stop there, though. She continued to use the social media platform to launch a preemptive strike on those seeking to churn up any controversy about her and her Feud co-star Jessica Lange, and to again underscore the kind of blatant sexism that prompts these kinds of rumors and the questions that female actors face in responding to them.
Appropriately, Sarandon's current project, Feud, tells the story of the backstage drama that played out between iconic actresses Bette Davis (played in the FX show by Sarandon) and Joan Crawford (played by Lange) while making the classic film Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?.
So, one last time: There's no real-life bad blood between Sarandon and any of her fellow actresses; if anything, Sarandon knows how to play the role of the rival on-screen a little too well.

The theater department at Canyon View High School will be presenting "Shrek the Musical" this week with live music from students and community members.
There also will be a gala fundraiser for future performances.
CVHS drama teacher Holly Barrick said her class got the idea for the non-traditional play after watching it performed as a class in Cache Valley.
"It felt like a great fit for our class," she said. "When I thought about all the fairytale characters, I thought it would be great for all of our different personalities. And so many kids will have their time to shine."
The cast includes 45 students acting and a dozen more in technical and production roles.
Issac Hughes plays Shrek, Ame Plummer plays Fiona, Anna Davis plays Donkey, Brandon Stone plays Farquaad and Asia Neilson was cast as Dragon.
Barrick enlisted the help of community musicians and theater experts to work side-by-side with the students.
Choreographer Tatem Trotter has been working with student choreographer Brandon Stone and dance captain Morgan Jenson to help the fairytale characters find their groove.
Southern Utah University student Taylor Rowley will be conducting the live orchestra composed of Southern Utah University and CVHS performers.
"We have had a lot of support from the SUU music and theater departments. I feel more prepared for this show than I have with others," Barrick said. "These kids have confidence in themselves and really have that sense of being part of a bigger show. They are having a lot of fun with it as well."
As opening night draws near, residents are urged to keep their eyes open for Shrek, Fiona and other fairytale creatures that might have wandered out of the forest looking for adventures.
Those who spot the characters can snap a photo and post it to #ShrekCVHS or the CVHS theater Facebook page.
On Nov.e 5 at 5 p.m., there will be a gala featuring dinner and a silent auction with proceeds going to the CVHS theater department — tickets are $10 each or $40 for a family of five.

The Red Land Little League film just moved a step closer to becoming a reality.
An anonymous $20,000 donation pushed the film just past its $50,000 Indiegogo goal last Tuesday with five days left in the campaign.
That money will help producers secure an A-list actor and keep control of the film in Central Pa., producer Jameson Hesse said.
"If we weren't doing an Indiegogo campaign and we went to normal Hollywood investors, we wouldn't be able to film the movie in Central Pa.," he said.
This Indiegogo goal is 90 percent lower than the $500,000 goal originally proposed at the official film announcement in Camp Hill March 23.
According to an April 16 post on the "Against the Odds" film's Facebook page, producers lowered the goal for three reasons:
If the film's $500,000 goal was not attained, Indiegogo's commission would have been 9 percent, the Facebook post said. But since the film reached its more attainable goal of $50,000, commission will be lowered to 5 percent.
Now that the new $50,000 goal has been achieved, the film can extend its campaign for another 60 days to increase its development funding. If the goal had not been achieved, this extension would not have been possible.
After the second phase of the campaign ends, the film can use that additional funding to help attract other film financiers to help them reach their $1.6 million budget.
The 60-day extension began after the first phase of the campaign concluded on Sunday, May 22.
Hesse said he expects to have $80,000 in corporate sponsorship by the end of the month and hopes to secure $100,000 by the end of the extension period.
The more development funding producers can raise, the more power they'll have during conversations with investors to keep the film in Central Pa., Hesse said, adding that he's willing to wait as long as it takes to find a financier willing to film in Central Pa.
"Our goal is to make the film in Central Pa.," he said. "We're not going to accept anything else."
"Against the Odds" — inspired by the Red Land Little League's 2015 U.S. Championship win — will follow the Wagner family (including coach Bret Wagner, his grandfather Harold Wagner and his son and Little League pitcher Cole Wagner) as it tells the story of how Bret, who was once a Cardinals first-round draft pick, overcame the guilt of quitting the game when he coached his son's team to the Little League World Series.
"It's a powerful story," Hesse said. "It's not just about the boys winning. It's about a four-generation baseball family who has been through a lot. It's just about their triumph."
Hesse said he hopes to sign an A-list actor to play Bret within a month.
Producers have already been in contact with Clint Eastwood's son Scott Eastwood for the role, Hesse said. And they've also reached out to James Caan, Burt Reynolds and Chuck Norris to play Wagner's grandfather. But nothing has been finalized.
"They're just people who showed interest," Hesse said. "It's just a matter of who will be available, who wants to do it and what kind of deal we can strike."
Confirmed actors so far include James Wilder ("Melrose Place"), Peter Dobson ("Forrest Gump") and E.G. Daily (voice of "Babe" and Tommy Pickles from "Rugrats").
Once an actor and funding has been secured, Hesse said producers will work toward an August film shoot.

Sin Wai Kin brings fantasy to life through storytelling via moving image, performance, writing, sound and print. Non-binary and mixed-race, their work draws on the experience of existing between fixed categories, realising fictional narratives to describe real experiences of desire and identification. Sin began doing drag as a means of 'deconstructing and challenging misogyny and racism in and outside of the queer community'. Through parody, the artist reveals and interrogates constructed images of idealised Western femininity. In recent years, their drag aesthetic has drawn upon roles found in Peking and Cantonese Opera. The rigidity of these archetypes enables the artist to illuminate the conventional rules and expectations around binaries of not only man and woman, but also self and other, thinking and feeling, life and death, dreaming and waking.
Sin Wai Kin (born 1991, Toronto, Canada) lives and works in London. Sin studied at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London and the Royal College of Art, London.

Drag helped make me aware of the complexity of gender and the absurdity and violence of a society that tells you that you are one of two genders when you are born, and you are treated accordingly for the rest of your life.
