Stewart eventually became one of Earth's greatest heroes and one of the more socially-conscious members of the GL Corps, always keeping an eye out for the little man. Stewart, an accomplished architect, used his keen eye for engineering to wield his power ring in ways never seen before by other Green Lanterns. Greatest Story: Emerald Dawn (1991), Green Lantern: Rebirth (2004)įirst Appearance: Green Lantern #87 (1971) Bio: Marine sharpshooter John Stewart discovered a whole new Corps when he was chosen by the Guardians of the Galaxy to become the second protector of Sector 2814, home to planet Earth. ![]() While infected with the Parallax entity, he also rocked some Reed Richards-like white sideburns. The Look: Jordan sports the most definitive Green Lantern costume, with a green mask, a green-and-black-clad suit, with white gloves and boots. Now, as the unabashed leader of the Green Lantern Corps, Jordan once again stands as one of the greatest heroes of Earth and the entire cosmos. Years later, after his successor, Kyle Rayner, managed to resurrect the Green Lantern Corps from the ashes, Rayner and the Guardian Ganthet were able to likewise bring Jordan back from the afterlife to redeem himself as the greatest Green Lantern of them all. After the heroes of the universe managed to kill the infected Jordan, his spirit went on to become host of the Spectre entity, the vehicle for the Wrath of God. Jordan eventually went insane and destroyed the Green Lantern central power battery, and then the entire Green Lantern Corps. Hal's life has not been without a considerable amount of tragedy, however, and after watching his hometown of Costal City destroyed by the alien warlord Mongol, Hal eventually succumbed to the fear-based impurity Parallax, the greatest threat to all Green Lanterns. Hal went on to many adventures, eventually joining the Justice League of America to become one of Earth's greatest heroes. However, he soon discovered that the seemingly heroic Sinestro was actually a tyrannical despot, and made his first great act as a Green Lantern Corp member by bringing his one-time mentor to justice. ![]() Under the tutelage of Corp member Sinestro, Jordan learned how to command his powerful new weapon. After inheriting Sur's Green Lantern ring and speaking the legendary Green Lantern oath for the first time, Hal embarked upon a heroic career as guardian of both Earth and all of Sector 2814. Jordan grew up to follow in his father's shoes as a fearless experimental pilot for Ferris, and it was there that Jordan fatefully stumbled upon the dying Abin Sur. ![]() At the young age of ten, Jordan watched his test pilot father die in a fiery plane crash over Ferris Aircraft, and it was then that this young hero learned what it meant to overcome fear. First Appearance: Showcase #22 (1959) Bio: If you've ever wondered what it would be like if legendary test pilot Chuck Yeager had wielded the most powerful weapon in the galaxy, look no further than Hal Jordan, the greatest Green Lantern of them all. ![]() But unlike the golf games, an exotic locale doesn't mean much for a tennis court-it's just a tennis court in an exotic location. The tennis courts in the game are located in a variety of locations, such as a city, beach, country club, and more. As in the golf games, the characters don't show a whole lot of personality until they do something exceptionally good or bad, in which case they celebrate or pout and yell out some sort of short catchphrase. None of the designs are particularly interesting. With the exception of a few older players, the characters are mostly young boys and girls from locations around the world. If you've ever seen a Hot Shots Golf game, you know what to expect from Hot Shots Tennis' visuals. If you love sparkles, you'll find a lot to like here. Then there are the game's other many issues: You can't hit the ball if it hit the net before landing on your side of the court players routinely get hit with the ball then fall down all of the stupid sparkle effects make it hard to see the direction in which the ball has been hit the CPU is brain-dead playing doubles with the CPU is horrible because it tries to hit every ball players move fast, but the ball moves slowly the list goes on and on. This means that rather than hitting the ball off the bounce early, you might be a little closer than you thought and you'll volley the ball late but still get the point. Sometimes it works as intended, but even with the ball's landing zone represented by a large glowing spot, it's tough to figure out exactly when and where it's going to land. If you hit the ball just right, you'll see a music note appear over your player's head if you hit it early, you'll see a rabbit if you swing late, you'll see a turtle. Timing is supposed to play a key role in the success of your shots. These are performed by simply pressing a button and a direction on the analog stick. Once you've rocketed the ball into play with a blazing underhanded serve, you've got topspin, lob, slice, and drop shots at your disposal. Yes, underhand.because it's so much fun to play as someone who sucks so bad at tennis he or she has to serve underhand. You have three different types of serves at your disposal: topspin, slice, and underhand. At least the matches generally don't last too long. Though you do earn new outfits, you don't earn individual clothing items and accessories, so there's really very little character customization.Įverything before and after matches is disappointing, so it shouldn't be too surprising that the action during matches isn't all that good either. This means there's very little strategy involved in choosing a player you'll just end up using the last one or two characters you've unlocked because they're the best. But unlike Hot Shots Golf, you never get any new equipment, so there's no way to improve a player. As you win matches, you'll be rewarded with a handful of new characters, outfits, courts, and even umpires (who are pointless). Each character also has his or her own unique look, ability ratings, and play style. There are singles and doubles matches where you'll be playing both male and female characters. You start at level one and are given a number of matches that you must win before moving up to the next level. ![]() You start by picking a male or female, and both players are done in typical Hot Shots' cartoonlike style. Not online multiplayer-there's none of that-just you and up to three friends on one machine multiplayer.Ĭhallenge mode is where most of the game's, well, challenge lies. Fun time tennis certainly sounds like it's full of all sorts of wondrous, fun tennis activities, but it's just a clever name for multiplayer. It's you, a ball machine, and an empty court you simply try to hit the ball onto certain areas of the court. Unlike other games, such as Virtua Tennis, where the practice minigames are one of the highlights, Hot Shots' training mode is bare-bones. You can play the challenge mode, fun time tennis, or practice in training mode. The first thing you'll notice about Hot Shots Tennis is that it's light on game modes. ![]() Yep, it's like Hot Shots Golf, but with tennis. The game's controls aren't good, there are limited play modes, and it's just not much fun. The Hot Shots Golf series has been tremendously popular since its debut on the PlayStation, and now, with Hot Shots Tennis, developer Clap Hanz is hoping that the "Hot Shots" style will translate to tennis. For fans of golf video games, the words "Hot Shots" conjure up images of goofy, cartoonlike characters playing fast-paced golf on fictional courses in far-off places. ![]() Lake Crescent Lodge Lake Crescent Lodge in Olympic National Park Kms5333 via Wikimedia Commons Cabins at Lake Crescent Lodge.

The music video for the song was directed by Colin Tilley and was shot in the Little Haiti neighborhood of Miami, Florida. The song peaked at number two on the US Billboard Hot 100, becoming Rihanna's 31st top-ten song, Khaled's third, and Tiller's first. The song also saw chart success in Australia and Canada, where it peaked at number two. Commercially, the song reached number one in the United Kingdom, marking Khaled's second and Rihanna's ninth number one. Lyrically, the song praises a lover who inspires sexual thoughts.

They are only seventeen but they seem like they figured out everything about their futures. I knew it would hurt like hell since I read the blurb! But I eventually requested and I am still happy to read this extremely heartfelt beauty even though I’m an emotional mess right now! I knew it would slice my heart into tiny pieces. I knew this book will break me into pieces. Oh my God! This tear jerker, the most emotional read of the year is finally out! Happy pub day!□□ martins press/wednesday books for the ARC! and sam deserved better, tbh.īut overall, still a decent debut and im interested in seeing what DT comes up with next! the last chapter and epilogue are really quite touching, its just that i know i would have emotionally felt more if i had cared about julie. ![]() Which is such a shame because i think the story at its heart is a really good one and one i think will resonate with any reader who has ever struggled with letting someone go and moving on. so its not her grief and sorrow thats making her lash out and treat everyone like crap, thats just who she is and it makes for a very frustrating and unenjoyable book. but then i realised shes just as selfish and rude in the flashbacks. grieving is an incredibly personal process and everyone handles it differently, so i was willing to tolerate a lot of her anger. I honestly wanted to cut julie some slack in the beginning. ![]() Unable to stand by the sidelines and watch their shared loved ones in pain, Julie is torn between spilling the truth about her calls with Sam and risking their connection and losing him forever.Ī really sweet, sentimental story that is dampened by an unlikable main character. However, keeping her otherworldly calls with Sam a secret isn’t easy, especially when Julie witnesses the suffering Sam’s family is going through. But hearing Sam’s voice makes her fall for him all over again, and with each call it becomes harder to let him go. In a miraculous turn of events, Julie’s been given a second chance at goodbye. Desperate to hear his voice one more time, Julie calls Sam’s cellphone just to listen to his voicemail. But a message Sam left behind in her yearbook forces back memories. Heartbroken, Julie skips his funeral, throws out his things, and tries everything to forget him and the tragic way he died. But the romance, and her loneliness, are ever present, and set her up nicely for her real second album.Seventeen-year-old Julie has her future all planned out-move out of her small town with her boyfriend Sam, attend college in the city, spend a summer in Japan. Her soft, digitally layered voice, and the tasteful mix of acoustic and electronic instruments behind her, don’t do such a good job of conveying her anguish. “Like, Jesus Christ, calm down,” she sings on the bouncy folk pop of Cocoon, and must be talking to herself given that she also describes herself as the Antichrist for instigating a breakup, and cries, “Without you, my soul is doomed,” on the shiny Eighties bop Into Your Room. Like Rodrigo, and the queen of this kind of thing, Taylor Swift, she’s also adept at depicting the love lives of young women in a way that wins obsessive fans but might cause outsiders to wonder quite what the fuss is about. Elvis Impersonators finds her imagining what her sister is doing on the other side of the world. Room Service is a sweet acoustic song of longing from the perspective of someone who has experienced way too many hotel bedroom meals. The song Lauren is named after her best friend and begins: “I used to drive you home but now I just drive you crazy,” while the drums clatter energetically and softly spoken synths keep the mood melancholy. It was mostly written between concerts all over the world, and the major theme is feeling isolated from friends, lovers, family and home. The content here also sounds like familiar second album material. ![]() No wonder it feels like this can’t possibly be her first full release. There was an album-length collection of songs from early EPs, Can You Afford to Lose Me? a year ago, and meanwhile she’s been gigging in major American venues supporting superstar Olivia Rodrigo, as well as headlining Brixton Academy herself. Humberstone placed second in the BBC’s Sound of 2021 list, then won the similar, even higher profile, Brit Award for Rising Star in early 2022. Ellie Goulding, Sam Smith and Years & Years are among those who did. Such is the strange state of pop music today, where TikTok offers success in seconds but laying the foundations for anything approaching a lasting career seems to take longer than ever.įor example, it’s historically been common for acts who triumph in the BBC’s annual January poll, a reliable roster of next big things, to release a hit debut album shortly afterwards. This is the debut album from Grantham 23-year-old Holly Humberstone, but in many ways it feels like her second. ![]() With our device management capabilities, you can uncover potential security threats by monitoring when and where the devices are connecting from and their last activity.
