9/10/2023 0 Comments Murasaki shion new outfit![]() You could call it a coincidence, but it’s also possible that the news of Coco’s graduation has opened the floodgates, pushing other creators to put their mental health first. Two hiatuses and one graduation in a single week is pretty alarming, raising serious questions about how the company cares for its talents. In any case, this doesn’t exactly paint a good picture of the mood among hololive talents at the moment. Again, not many details have been provided from her side, so we don’t know exactly why. Haachama had also set out an ambitious schedule at the end of April that she wasn’t able to stick to for very long. Both of them had been very inactive up until then, with Shion’s last stream being on 23 May. To a certain extent, neither Murasaki Shion nor Akai Haato’s hiatus announcements are particularly surprising. Nevertheless, she will be participating in Coco’s graduation live. Her tweet, published moments afterwards, said that she would be entering into an indefinite hiatus. In a livestream on 12 June, the only thing she said was that she decided to make the announcement on YouTube because there were people who might not follow her on Twitter. She promised to start streaming again when she feels a little better.Īkai Haato, meanwhile, offered a lot less reasoning behind her hiatus. The news of Coco’s graduation also got her down, so she discussed with her manager and other talents, who advised her to go at her own pace. More specifically, throat pain meant that she wasn’t able to stream for hours on end, nor eat enough to feel energetic. In the case of Murasaki Shion’s hiatus, she explained in a livestream on 13 June that poor health placed a barrier between her and a more regular schedule. Murasaki Shion and Akai Haato ( aka Haachama) both announced that they would be going on indefinite hiatus over the weekend, adding to fan anxiety following the news of Kiryu Coco’s graduation. She can barely say her greeting, “Hellshio”.Things are not looking good over at hololive HQ at the moment. She calls herself a highborne black magician (probably). She's later paired with Gawr Gura, due to the latter being her fangirl prior her debut. Shion has gained the nickname "garlic" from oversea fans due to her hair color and personality, and to pair her with the "onion" (Aqua). Another is the formerly popular "Manjigumi" Trio where Shion is paired with Aqua and Nakiri Ayame. She's is usually paired with Minecraft neighbor Minato Aqua, the dispute between the two resulting in Shion's house being partially destroyed and then sloppily patched up by Aqua. While she wants to be seen as an adult, thanks to her childish appearance and mannerisms, all attempts by Shion to appear adult-like end up looking very silly. Shion is a smug, cheeky brat ("kusogaki") who speaks bluntly without the usual politeness/consideration associated with the Japanese language. She also has cat ears and a cat tail with a tail bow with this outfit. Her second outfit ( post #22532879) is a gothic lolita cat girl costume consisting of a black bonnet, a layered short, frilled, pinstriped, sleeveless black criss-cross halter dress with center frills, bows and a star-shaped brooch, black detached wide juliet sleeves, a frilled choker, a light purple or grey print pantyhose with a chain print and black mary janes. Her default costume ( post #15629377) consists of a black tilted witch hat, a long-sleeved grey vertical-striped pinstriped cropped shirt that exposes her midriff, a black and purple capelet, a pink bowtie on her hands, a black lowleg mini or microskirt, black gloves, vertical-striped thighhighs, a chain thighlet and black loafers with a star on them. ![]() Her regular hairstyle consists of a half updo tied into a cone-shaped side bun and held with a hairband and a hexagram hair ornament with her default outfit and twintails with a frilled hair ribbon with her second outfit.

"What I am worried about is benzene levels of over 6 ppm, exceeding 3 times the maximum allowable. "I'm not worried about trace amounts of benzene," says New York City-based dermatologist and associate clinical professor at Yale School of Medicine, Macrene Alexiades, who also sits on the editorial board of the Dermatologic Surgery Journal. As the CDC explains, it's a chemical most people are likely exposed to every day, as the air we breathe contains low levels of it “from tobacco smoke, gas stations, motor vehicle exhaust, and industrial emissions.” It's also used to make chemicals found in human-made products like plastics, dyes, and detergents, and is found in glue and paint. It's a chemical naturally found in volcanoes and forest fires, and "a natural part of crude oil, gasoline, and cigarette smoke," according to the CDC. If you're not familiar with benzene, you're not alone. The FDA recommends that consumers do not continue to use products that are being recalled." We will continue to monitor sunscreen manufacturing and marketing to help ensure the availability of safe sunscreens for U.S. ![]() The FDA takes seriously any safety concerns raised about products we regulate, including sunscreens. Please refer to the Johnson & Johnson press release regarding the nature of their recall. We believe this is the right decision to ensure consumers are confident in using sunscreen products." Customers can also ask questions and request a refund by calling the JJCI Consumer Care Center 24/7 at 1-80.Ī statement about the recall by the FDA provided to Allure reads: "The FDA is aware of this recall. The statement advises customers to stop using and discard of these specific products, while noting that sunscreen use is "critical to public health." An additional statement from Johnson & Johnson sent to Allure notes: "While the use of these products would not be expected to cause adverse health consequences, we are asking consumers to stop using them. 9/10/2023 0 Comments Uptown apple store hoursUpon opening of the new Apple store, New York customers would be able to visit a store with more than two times the underground space, expanding from 32,000 square feet to 77,000 square feet. site began in January of 2017, when Apple closed the store and opened an interim location next door at the former FAO Schwarz.

Noted architecture critic Ada Louise Huxtable declared that the Apple store redeemed this part of 5th Ave. An incredible glass spiral staircase was part of the design, as was a glass cylindrical elevator to move patrons between floors. The New York Apple location opened in 2006, and it underwent a major overhaul in 2011 to reduce to the number of glass panels used in the all-glass entrance. New York, NY, has many noteworthy attractions, but surely one of the most eye-catching is this Apple store with its patented glass cube design. Notable among these is the flagship Manhattan Apple store. These high-end stores make their homes in major cities. Alongside industry-shaking contributions and sleek electronic accessories that have earned more than 100 major design awards from the iF design competition, Apple has won awards for the layout and style of their retail stores. Today, Apple is firmly established in the computer industry, earning a reputation as one of the best high-tech developers. has grown exponentially since its founders, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, built the first Apple I in 1976. With pandemic restrictions lifting, “we’re seeing just how swiftly people are coming back and how excited they are. “You go there for connection, for entertainment, for cultural experiences in life,” said Lall, president of business advocacy group Central City Assn. The company’s Today at Apple program will also offer public in-store sessions at Tower Theatre and virtual sessions hosted by Creative Studios teaching artists including photographer and filmmaker Bethany Mollenkof, rapper and producer D Smoke, singer-songwriter Syd, and cellist and singer Kelsey Lu.ĭowntown booster Jessica Lall hopes such programs and Apple’s presence will broaden the appeal of the city center as people return in search of its urban environment after what she described as “a really hard year for downtown.” The downtown Apple store and another in Beijing will be the first to launch Apple Creative Studios, which the company calls “a global initiative for underrepresented young creatives” to give them access to tech equipment, guidance and the opportunity to display what they create.

I’m not saying I’m a furry, but maybe we’re all furries when Symone looks like that. Kandy looks absurd in a latex alien suit with a blow up alien attached to her - the concept is she crashed her UFO and her friend is hurt? Rosé really does look great as she goes full theatre kid committing to her monster walk. Gottmik is a purple monster with big eyes on her shoulders, a teeth skirt, and her nipples as nostrils. Olivia is a turquoise monster thing with horns. Tina is a bunch of stuffed animals sewed together. ![]() Utica looks hot as Maleficent, once again showing she’s a fashion queen, not a comedy queen. Rosé is offering words of comfort, but it looks bonkers because her face is painted red and she has weird troll ears. It’s been so nice seeing Kandy’s journey and watching her realize she doesn’t always have to fight - but still can when necessary. Three other boys tackled her and broke her arm to the point she needed surgery. The conversation pivots to the serious as Kandy talks about being gay bashed in 7th grade. Rosé doesn’t really engage, but admits in the confessional that she definitely thinks she’s funnier than Tina. Even in the taping Symone is the standout as Ross and Carson whisper her praises.Īs they get ready for the runway, Tina and Rosé bicker a bit because Tina takes issue with Rosé calling herself a comedy queen. The other queens range from chaotic to confident. And Olivia struggles because she can’t stop smiling, preventing her makes-you-smile ad concept from having an arc. Tina struggles during the filming as she repeatedly flubs a line. But originality aside I like what Gottmik says about realizing that her personality is part of her brand - she’s more than her mask! Gottmik’s soda makes you “delusional” which I must point out was Jinkx’s perfume concept in her branding challenge. And Gottmik has misunderstood the concept of a storyboard, opting instead for a convoluted text based color coding system. Utica wants to lick her can because it’s unsanitary and fun. Tina’s plan is so elaborate that Olivia calls it a full on movie trilogy situation. The queens are all over the place as they put together their ideas. Whenever she was enjoying herself most was when she did best. And speaking of essence, season 12 winner Jaida Essence Hall is there virtually to offer some words of wisdom! She tells the queens to have fun and that insecurity leads to bad drag. It’s the branding challenge, so each of the queens is tasked with coming up with a soda and making an ad that not only sells the drink but also their very essence. The maxi challenge this week is soda commercials. There are questions about Alyssa Edwards and Lil’ Poundcake and which queen’s catchphrase is Bam! Kandy may not be good at math, but she knows her Drag Race and she wins. ![]() The mini challenge this week is Are You Smarter Than the Pit Crew? Olivia says she loves quizzes with adorable straight A student energy. It’s a new day in the work room and Symone is feeling great! As she should be! Always! She’s feeling so good she tries to stir up some drama by asking who’s surprised to still be there, but no one takes the bait. Olivia refuses to drop her smile as she insists she has no hard feelings against the queens for saying she should go home. ![]() Utica is happy to have finally won - being paired with Symone will help with that - and Kandy says it’s time she show her own winning side. We begin with the goodbye, as Rosé says that she saw her and Denali together in the top four. And by that I mean the queens I personally like are doing well. I must’ve licked sunshine, anti-depressants, and the blood of Christ, because I’m feeling good! After last week’s frustrating goodbye, the Drag Race universe has righted itself.

Swipe to scroll horizontally 2.4 GHz near The system is strong enough to completely block devices without shutting down the entire network. While some routers only have parental controls with limited functionality, the Asus GT-AXE16000 allows parents to set limits on both the number of websites that can be visited, and the amount spent by each device. Finally, a log is also available for each of these events, so you can track how effectively it’s working over time. In addition, there is a feature to prevent infected devices from engaging in a botnet or zombie attack. There is also a “Malicious Site Blocking” tool to prevent users from unknowingly visiting known corrupt websites, and “Two Way IPS”, which is an intrusion prevention system. This security suite includes a router security assessment to identify problems. The Asus GT-AXE16000 has several security features built-in, powered by TrendMicro, which has provided security solutions to the industry since 1988. For flexibility on the network, it can also be configured to perform a variety of functions: router, repeater, access point, media bridge, and mesh. We went through the browser-based option for “Quick Internet Setup,” and it walked us through the steps, automatically updating the firmware on the way to the latest version. Setting up the Asus GT-AXE16000 was quick and simple, as we’ve come to expect from a company with mature software. However, power usage is on the high side, which isn’t unexpected for a full-size flagship router, with a maximum power draw of 65 watts. Hardware specs are also strong and include a 2.0GHz quad-core processor, 2GB of DDR4 RAM, and 256MB of NAND flash storage. There’s also a pair of USB ports, the first USB 2.0, and the second USB 3.2 Gen 1. These include a 2.5 Gb WAN port, a pair of 10 Gigabit WAN/LAN ports, and four Gigabit LAN ports, so many won’t need a separate switch. Wireless features include beamforming, OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access), 20/40/80/160 MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM high data rates. It is Wi-Fi 6E on the 802.11ax standard, and is backward compatible with prior standards such as 802.11ac. There is a 2.4 GHz band with a maximum speed of 1,148 Mbps, a pair of 5 GHz bands that top out at 4,804 Mbps, and a 6 GHz band with a maximum speed of 4,804 Mbps. Since quad-band wireless support is the bigger story, we’ll focus on that first. Looking at the specifications of the GT-AXE16000, Asus clearly pulls out all the stops. There’s also a power switch to facilitate restarts, which we appreciate as some models no longer have one. (Image credit: Tom’s Hardware) (Image credit: Tom’s Hardware) It’s a different sign to the gaming community, but thankfully the LED can be disabled (for use in a bedroom setting, for example). Taking a step up from its previous flagship router, Asus has adorned this model with a single piece of clear Plexiglas that covers about two-thirds of the top surface and can be illuminated with RGB LEDs. It has a power cord with eight non-separable antennas and a large power brick. The GT-AXE16000 uses a horizontal design in a larger body, which has become Asus’ design formula for its flagship router.
