![]() ![]() After Ed and Al burn their home to the ground, they forge ahead to become State Alchemists, with Ed becoming the "Fullmetal Alchemist." Their aim is to return to the fully human young men they once were, and the journey they embark on is quite thrilling, filled with trials, tribulations, and the threat of the antagonistic "Father. The human transmutation attempt leaves Al's physical form destroyed and Ed without a leg Ed then gives up another limb, his arm, to allow Al's soul to remain and be placed into a suit of armor. Following their mother's passing, the boys attempt to use their skills in alchemy to raise her from the dead - something that's incredibly dangerous and impossible to complete without huge consequences. The anime series follows a pair of brothers, Edward and Alphonse Elric, who were raised in the village of Resembool by a single mother after their father left the family. However, while possible, the morality of this act is questionable due to the creation and use of a Philosopher's Stone being unethical to begin with.Contains spoilers for Fullmetal Alchemist: BrotherhoodĪlthough it was the second adaptation of the manga that serves as its source material, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood is arguably the more beloved version the Fullmetal Alchemist story - in part because of its ending. This is because Philosopher's Stones are comprised of multiple souls, allowing their contents to be exchanged equally in human transmutations. Use of a Philosopher's Stone is the only way to perform Human Transmutation without causing a rebound. Despite disappearing suddenly during their infancy, Hohenheim returned during the course of the. Along with this knowledge, entry into Truth's domain also allows the alchemist to perform alchemy without the use of a Transmutation Circle (the basic laws of equivalent exchange still apply). Van Hohenheim also known in the 2003 anime series as Hohenheim of Light (, Hikari no Henhaimu )was a deceptively ancient and extremely powerful Alchemist as well as the estranged father of Edward and Alphonse Elric. When thrust through the Gate of Truth, this infinite knowledge is displayed to and absorbed by the targeted alchemist. ![]() Truth is God in the sense that he possesses infinite knowledge, including that of alchemy, world history and much, much more. Any who attempt human transmutation are teleported through their own personal Gate of Truth (which allows one to perform alchemy) and brought before the being after whom the gate is named. The punishment for human transmutation is severe, not just because it goes against the law of equivalent exchange, but also because defying this law means that a human has effectively attempted to play God, God in Fullmetal Alchemist being Truth. The toll will be exacted even if the taboo is committed unintentionally or against ones will, as Roy Mustang is robbed of his sight despite being forced to perform human transmutation by Father and the Homunculus. Rebounds exact a toll from the committer of the taboo in order to rebalance the exchange: Alphonse loses his body and Edward loses a leg when attempting to revive their mother, Edward also loses an arm when bonding Alphonse's soul to the suit of armor and Izumi Curtis is robbed of numerous organs after attempting to revive her baby. If human transmutation is performed, the alchemist responsible pays a heavy price, as bartering for a soul of infinite value with materials of finite value causes the alchemic equation to be thrown off balance, causing a rebound. This doesn't stop alchemists from trying though, as sometimes the pain of losing a loved one overrides logic. Fullmetal Alchemist establishes that the value of a human soul is unquantifiable, and as something cannot be created without an object of equal value being lost, something possessing infinite value can never be equally exchanged for.

![]() The style may strike some as slightly bohemian (in the same vein as the Gramercy Park Hotel), which seems appropriate given the club's targeting of creative types.Īll have impressive (and expensive) minibars with still and sparkling water, snacks (including some from Dean & Deluca), full-size liquor bottles, Perrier Jouet champagne, and sodas. The decor is a blend of industrial-chic and sophisticated Britannia details may include painted exposed brick, velvet chairs, rich rugs, brocade fabrics, and wood - lots of wood, from hardwood floors to wood-beamed ceilings to, in some, rustic wall paneling. Rooms differ slightly depending on the size - Small, Medium and Big, ranging from 300 to 750 square feet - but they share many of the main ingredients. The Soho House has 30 rooms that all went through a major renovation in 2013. For the few staying here who might actually be taking the Subway, the A, C, E, 1, 2, 3 and L station to Brooklyn are all within walking distance. Taxis are easy to get from here, or the front desk can arrange private transportation. Hudson River Park provides a great bike and running path. ![]() There's a Citi bike station directly across the street, and the High Line Park entrance is nearby for sunset walks. Not to say that the neighborhood is all about partying. The revelry lasts until long past the midnight hour on weekends, and lower rooms may experience street noise. Open since 2003, The Soho House credits itself for importing cool to the area, while others attribute the start of gentrification to the designer boutiques.įancy shops and expensive, celebrity-chef restaurants are prevalent throughout the neighborhood, and at night, plunging necklines and sky-high heels appear as the young and trendy meander the cobblestone streets. These days, after a major transformation, it has become a fashionable neighborhood with a lively nightlife scene. The area's name refers to its historical past as home to hundreds of slaughterhouses and meat processing plants later, it was a cruising ground for prostitutes. Soho House is smack in the center of Manhattan's Meatpacking District - a trendy nabe adjacent to Chelsea and West Village. The age range is wide (there's even a special membership for women ages 27 and under) but strict house rules - like no pairs in the toilets - help ensure the party atmosphere stays classy. The cocktail hour is prime time, and drinks flow until late at night. (Fans of Sex and the City may remember when Samantha sneaked into the club to use this pool.) There's a salad bar serving healthy fare, and servers make the rounds delivering bottled water or colorful cocktails.Īt night, expect to dress up. With decor that changes annually, cushy lounge chairs, umbrellas, and striking city views, this is one of the most coveted summer spots in Manhattan. One floor above sits the rectangular rooftop pool and terrace. ![]() There's a distinct whiff of pretension that can come and go, which isn't from the staff - they are friendly - but rather from some of the members themselves. Members are "creative" types, while Wall Street types, supposedly, aren't welcome to join, but that doesn't mean that Soho House has an absence of monetary worth. Attractive movers and shakers working on laptops, impressing colleagues, or dining at a number of chic sitting areas are omnipresent. There's a buzz throughout most of the day, from breakfast (brunch on weekends) until the wee hours when the late-night menu is served. This is where the club space is located with a restaurant, bar, and modern art collection. Those who choose to stay here pay steep prices not just for the rooms but for access to the private enclave - in other words, Floor Six. Check-in is personal - sometimes even done by the General Manager himself - and then guests are whizzed up to their rooms via one of two elevators. The front desk is heavily guarded by a small team of polished and friendly staff that greets members, visitors of members, and hotel guests. The club was founded in London in the '90s, and British influences extend to the interior decor as well. This cobblestoned section of 9th Avenue is a hub of gentrified activity, but the black iron awning - a contrast against the beige brick converted warehouse - blends in, until guests discover a small sign that is meant to look like a London street sign, paying homage to its roots across the pond. ![]() If the understated entrance of Soho House is meant to throw off general bypassers, then it succeeds. ![]() Sea-Monkeys even took several trips into space to test their hardiness, which bore mixed results: some were affected in early tests, but a 1998 flight with astronaut John Glenn yielded no ill effects at all.Īlthough the hype surrounding the Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys died down significantly in the early 21st century, you can still purchase the kits online, and likely in specialty toy and curio shops. Artemis salina bears none of these characteristics rather looking much more like other members of the shrimp family.īut that didn’t stop kids from wanting a Sea-Monkey tribe of their very own, and the concept was a hit. Because von Brauhaut wanted kids’ wonder of marine science to extend past the Sea-Monekys’ initial birth, he and D’Angostino crossbred species within the Artemia genus to create a longer-lived species, dubbed Artemia NYOS after the New York Ocean Science lab where they were created.Īdvertisements and packaging for the Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys portrayed the shrimp as strange, nude humanoid creatures with webbed hands and feet, pot bellies, and three appendages protruding from their heads to resemble a crown. These packets are added at separate times within 24-36 hours, shortly after which the brine shrimp begin to reanimate. If the shrimp is expected to reanimate and live for any period of time, this water must be nutrient-rich.Įach Sea-Monkeys kit comes with packets of water additives containing salt, water conditioner, eggs, yeast, borax, soda, shrimp eggs, and sometimes a dye to make them more visible. The salt forms a casing around the shrimp, which can only be released by the addition of water. This means that all metabolic functions cease until conditions return to normal, and it can occur with some species in the case of freezing, oxygen deficiency, and extreme dehydration. These shrimp reside in salt flats and salt lakes, entering a state of cryptobiosis when the water of the lake evaporates. ![]() Theoretically, a healthy tank will grow enough algae. The Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys are the invention of Harold von Braunhut, who came up with the concept after seeing the species of brine shrimp involved in his invention, Artemia salina, sold as food in a pet store. It turns out that Sea-Monkey food is basically spirulina and yeast, but algae is their natural food source. They were hugely successful between their inception in 1957 through the end of the 20th century, enough so that someone created National Sea-Monkey Day! Each plastic aquarium is equipped with a ventilated lid, build in magnifiers and a molded sea scape bottom. People of a certain age will remember a popular fad in the 1970s that brought an ordinary, but little-known aquatic creature into millions of homes across the globe: the Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys. Because the new basic Growth Food formula is concentrated, feed your Sea-Monkeys just once a week with only ONE scoop full of food. Grow your own Sea Monkey friends with this great kit. ![]() To that end, he wields the awesome power of perreo on cuts like the thrilling throwback “Gistro Amarillo” and the Nicky Jam-backed “Esto No Acaba.” On the poppier side, he sinks his teeth into the pleasures of “Caramelo” and taps English-language hitmakers Doja Cat and Sia for the sun-soaked “Del Mar.” Later, Ozuna brings a balladeer’s grace to the dancehall-informed “Despeinada” with Camilo and the somber piano-led “Duele Querer.

In 2014, Chloe and her mother Katie appeared in one episode of Eliana, in the episode released on 27 April 2014, where they discussed the Side Eyeing Chloe meme. In 2021, it was revealed that the Side Eyeing Chloe photo would be auctioned off as a non-fungible token (NFT). In 2019, Chloe and her mother Katie appeared in an episode of BuzzFeed's series "I Accidentally Became A Meme", where they discussed the meme and the impact it has had on their lives. Later that year, Chloe and Lily both began modeling careers. In 2017, Chloe and her family took a trip to Brazil - where her facial expression was pasted all over the Google offices. Due to the meme's success, Chloe has been featured heavily on Katie's YouTube channel, alongside her older sister Lily. The article features numerous examples of the photoshopped memes, as well as several GIFs. Most of these photoshopped memes were posted on the Tumblr blog “Chloe Queen of Everything.” īuzzFeed posted an article about the meme in November 2013, referring to her as "the patron saint of Tumblr" and "the queen and goddess of the internet". Side Eyeing Chloe has also been used as a photoshop meme, featuring Chloe's disturbed look on celebrities. It was then remixed into numerous GIF photos highlighting the contrasting reactions, which gained 895,700 notes in less than a month. The screenshot of Chloe's disturbed look was used in numerous memes on Tumblr and Twitter. Like its predecessor, the video went viral, having over 20 million views as of February 2021. ![]() The video is a follow-up to a similar video released two years earlier, which went viral, having over 19 million views as of February 2021. As the older sister, Lily, breaks into tears of joy, Chloe is briefly seen on camera with a disturbed look on her face. The video shows two sisters, Lily and Chloe Clem, reacting to the news of a surprise trip to Disneyland on Lily's way to school. The meme comes from the 2013 YouTube video "Lily's Disneyland Surprise… AGAIN!". She first appeared in a video on her family's YouTube channel, which was uploaded on October 3, 2011. Early life Ĭhloe Clem was born in Utah on November 30, 2010, to parents David and Katie Clem, the latter being responsible for creating the family's YouTube channel and posting videos there. His blade shines and it is ready to reap new souls, taking them to an unknown dimension.Chloe Clem (born November 30, 2010), commonly known by her Internet nickname " Side Eyeing Chloe", is an American Internet celebrity known for her concerned-looking reaction, which became a popular Internet meme in 2013. The touch of red makes this reaper seem as if he comes straight from hell. The tree symbolizes life and the multiple shades of the sky beneath the aspects of life. Whatever was full of life, will eventually wither and be called by the grim reaper. This tattoo can be used on smaller body parts as well. His scythe and a part of his cloak are enough to distinguish him. The tattoo artist doesn’t even have to depict the whole figure of the grim reaper. However, irrespective of his nature, he is one extremely brutal force that no one can’s mess with. ![]() The reaper resembles a fallen angel and confuses the viewer. ![]() This is one of the tattoos ideas that features an unusual interpretation. Between earth and the skies, he is close enough. Despite not having his scythe around, he is closely watching over everyone and everything, just ready to strike. The ghostly figure of the reaper lost his well-known weapon here. ![]() The reason I bring this up, and there’s a reason I promise, is that digital artists haven’t had many tools where portability and capability overlap near-perfectly in a Venn diagram. No normal monitor arm dare try to hoist its heft, so it sits on an imposing metal limb that looks like an assembly line robot in an automotive plant. The 27QHD is roughly the size of a late eighties Buick with the price tag to match. ![]() My main workstation boasts a Cintiq 27QHD. The other devices I live with are even more studio and desk bound. But, as dependable and capable as it was, it was never as portable as I’d hoped. I used it for three or four years - daily - from launch until now. Much like it’s current kin, the MobileStudio Pro, it felt like a device that wanted to be plugged in to a power source, set on a desk, and worked at in a tethered, stationary way.ĭon’t get me wrong. The compromises asked by the Companion were those of true portability. Clip Studio on the Cintiq Companion offered me desktop-grade art software with no compromises. Was the Pencil’s feel a result of the hardware’s low fidelity or was it representative of the early, rough handful of art apps? I couldn’t tell you. Some folks swore by Procreate, but the floaty, distant feel of making marks and the shallow, odd brush engine left me wanting. I was in a long term relationship with my Cintiq Companion, the precursor to the MobileStudio Pro, and a Surface Pro, and the slate of apps available on the iPad Pro seemed more suitable for sketching and ideation than finished works. When last I’d checked in with the iPad Pro, it was a nascent device with little apps more than Procreate to justify its expense. An hour after hearing the news I rushed out and purchased a new 12.9” iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. Suffice to say, the release of my preferred art tool on the iPad Pro intrigued me. It’s successor, Clip Studio, has been my go-to application for illustration since I beta tested the English localization for Smith Micro. I’ve used some form of Celsys’ art software since about 2004 back when it was called Comic Studio in Japan. Clip Studio Paint, the iPad Pro, Art Studio House Arrest, and YouĬelsys recently released a feature complete, no concessions made, portable version of its desktop illustration software, Clip Studio Paint, for iOS and the iPad Pro. |
