Remembering Dougal Haston – Explorersweb »

Dougal Haston, one of the most skilled and fearless mountaineers of his time, would have turned 86 today. Born on April 19, 1940, in Currie, a small village near Edinburgh, Haston was the son of a baker and grew up in modest circumstances. From a young age, he developed a strong passion for the outdoors and began climbing in his mid-teens. By 1954, when he was 14, he made his first notable ascent on Curved Ridge, one of Scotland’s most famous and popular scrambling routes, in Glencoe. He joined the Junior Mountaineering Club of Scotland and improved his skills on hard routes, often in bad weather, with climbing partners such as Robin Smith. Haston and Smith formed one of the most dynamic and audacious climbing partnerships of the 1960s, bringing the so-called  “Scottish style” (climbing in severe, mixed conditions) to an outstanding level. In 1959, Haston made the first ascent of The Bat, a difficult rock route on Carn Dearg at Ben Nevis. While at Edinburgh University, he continued climbing in Scotland, the Lake District, and the Alps. He grew to prefer winter climbs and mixed routes. Robin Smith, left, and Dougal Haston. Photo: SMC Image Archive Car accident and

‘Kevin’ Review: Jason Schwartzman, Aubrey Plaza in Amazon Cat Cartoon

When Kevin (voiced by Jason Schwartzman), star of Amazon’s new animated series Kevin, suffers a bad breakup, he does what any young man in the big city might do. He moves out of his old place, picks up new friends and new interests, explores his former neighborhood with fresh eyes. He takes time alone to think about what he really wants out of a relationship, or out of life. He considers new potential life partners, and eventually courts one. Occasionally, unhappily, he backslides into contact with his ex. Kevin The Bottom Line An amiable hangout comedy, with a feline twist. Airdate: Monday, April 20 (Prime Video) Cast: Jason Schwartzman, Amy Sedaris, John Waters, Whoopi Goldberg, Aparna Nancherla, Gil Ozeri, Aubrey Plaza Creators: Aubrey Plaza, Joe Wengert What makes Kevin’s journey more unexpected than most is that he is no fleece-vested banker or tattooed barista, but a tuxedo cat; his split is not with a lover but with his human owners. The feline twist is enough to make Kevin, created by Joe Wengert and Aubrey Plaza, feel like a fresh spin on the hangout comedy. If it only occasionally lives up to its fullest potential for humor and heart, it eventually

Paris Jackson Revitalizes Her ‘Soft-Grunge Tumblr Girl’ Era in Moody Snapshots – Yahoo

Michael Jackson’s daughter, Paris Jackson, is joining in on a new TikTok trend, one where you remember your roots (or the aesthetic you always come back to). And let’s just say, Paris won the trend!

Lee Cronin’s The Mummy Review | Flickreel

Lee Cronin isn’t a household name. Most people will likely need to Google him before remembering that he directed Evil Dead Rise. That said, Lee Cronin’s The Mummy is clearly from the same twisted mind who made that film. Cronin justifies including his name in the title, and not just to distinguish it from the Brendan Fraser version. Cronin’s Mummy has his sick signature all over it. His take on the classic monster is more in the spirit of The Exorcist or Pet Sematary. Lee Cronin’s The Mummy might not be in the same league as those films. If you’re a fan of Cronin’s depraved gifts, though, it’s worth unwrapping. Jack Reynor and Laia Costa play a couple with two children, as well as a third on the way. When daughter Katie goes missing, a sudden sandstorm suggests it’s not a run-of-the-mill kidnapping. Eight years later, Katie is found, although she’s undergone some noticeable changes. Katie only speaks when something sinister is on her mind, her grotesque flesh practically peels off, and she’s developed super strength, giving Grandma multiple savage beatings that are borderline hilarious. This is from the same director who made Evil Dead Rise, after all. When Lee

25 Tumblr Posts For An Internet Refresh | Know Your Meme

Once upon a time, Tumblr was one of the most used social media sites on the Internet. Tumblr was a social media site popular with teens and young adults in the 2010s, and for good reason. It was a huge gathering place for those into fandoms, to start, and it was one of the most customizable platforms around. People could modify their blogs to appear exactly how they wanted them to. On top of that, this social media site allowed for just about anything to be posted and shared, which thrilled people. Over the years, Tumblr experienced some changes in terms of ownership and rules. With new owners came new rules that banned a lot of content people liked. These changes, among other things, drove some people away from Tumblr onto new platforms. The site is still alive, though, and there are still many funny posts and memes coming from there. Enjoy an Internet throwback, or just a fresh look into memes and posts from a site less visited now, enjoy some Tumblr posts shared recently. These memes are different than the everyday, typical memes people see. Gotta call them something (Source: Reddit) Teach a man to fish (Source: Reddit)

Spotify and Major Labels Win $322M in Music Piracy Lawsuit – Billboard

At least for now, the court judgment is largely a symbolic victory, as no one has identified the anonymous internet users behind Anna's Archive. The Spotify company logo is displayed as traders work on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) during morning trading on February 01, 2023 in New York City. Michael M. Santiago/Getty Images Trending on Billboard Spotify and the three major label groups have been awarded a nine-figure copyright judgment against the pirate library Anna’s Archive — though at least for now, the victory is largely symbolic as the site is anonymously operated. A federal judge entered default judgment on Tuesday (April 14) against Anna’s Archive, which announced in a blog post this past December that it had scraped 86 million songs from Spotify and planned to distribute them via a series of bulk torrents. Spotify teamed up with Universal Music Group (UMG), Warner Music Group (WMG) and Sony to sue the site’s shadowy operators for this “brazen theft” in January. Related Judge Jed S. Rakoff granted an immediate restraining order that barred Anna’s Archive from distributing the stolen songs, but the site’s operators never responded to the lawsuit. Undeterred, they released torrents in February
