What's stealing the show at Newfields this summer
The big picture: The art museum recently unveiled five exhibits that will be bringing the heat all summer.
Zoom in: Here's what you need to know about Newfields' latest attractions.
This opulent display showcases the work of contemporary queer artists Robert Horvath, Diego Montoya and Anthony Sonnenberg who draw inspo from the Rococo period's extravagance.
There is a watercolor room by Horvath that is inspired by palace interiors, ornate ceramic sculptures by Sonnenberg, and gowns from Montoya.
" Maximum Color, Minimal Form: The Panels of Ellsworth Kelly"
Kelly, a pioneer of hard-edge abstraction, had a close relationship with Robert Indiana that played an instrumental role in the creation of Indiana's iconic LOVE sculptures.
Indiana said Kelly's insistence on pure color and form was a defining inspiration for the stacked letters.
This exhibit puts that approach on display with 11 bold, colored panels that play on movement and spatial awareness to evoke emotion.
" Composing Color: Paintings by Alma Thomas"
This Smithsonian American Art Museum invites visitors to see the world through the eyes of Thomas, a teacher and artist famous for developing her signature style of abstract painting late in her life.
There is also a playlist of Thomas' favorite tunes that pairs with the exhibit. She often listened to music as she worked.
" The Truth of Freedom: Resilience Redefined"
A showcase of the power of creativity as a tool for healing and social change, inspired by the 60th anniversary of the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s and '70s.
The gallery brings the work of visual artists of different disciplines together to offer their take on a shared longing for connection, dignity and freedom.
The LUME Indianapolis featuring "Connection: Land, Water, Sky"
Making its debut in May, the headlining presentation is an exhibition that features the work of 100 contemporary Indigenous Australian artists to take us on a tour of their world.
On Friday, The LUME added three featurettes created by IU Herron School of Art + Design students that will play alongside "Connection: Land, Water, Sky" this summer.

See Notre Dame head coach Marcus Freeman wearing ‘The Shirt' during Wednesday's practice
Notre Dame head football coach Marcus Freeman is a man of the people, and he showed that during Wednesday's practice. Entering his fourth-year at the helm of the Irish program, the expectations are extremely high for the 39-year old, but he's having fun with it. In a post shared by the official Notre Dame football social media account, you see Freeman wearing this year's version of 'The Shirt.' One of the fans biggest complains over during his tenure has been the inability to purchase some of the Under Armour gear that Freeman wears. Luckily, this time, it's fairly easy to be matching with Notre Dame's head coach. The great part about this is that it shows once again that Freeman understands the culture surrounding the football program. While he didn't play for the Irish, he's fully engrained in the Notre Dame football family.

STRANGER THINGS Star Finn Wolfhard Teases Possible Spinoff, Compares It to TWIN PEAKS — GeekTyrant
As Stranger Things gears up to close the book on its epic five-season run, the world of Hawkins, Indiana, might just be cracking open a new chapter. With Netflix's final season set to drop later this year, fans are wondering where the franchise might head next. According to Finn Wolfhard, he's got a pretty solid idea, and it sounds like it could be weird and wonderful. In a recent chat with Variety, Wolfhard, who plays fan-favorite Mike Wheeler, got nostalgic about wrapping up his time on set. But, the conversation quickly shifted to the mysterious Stranger Things spinoff that's been quietly in development. Turns out, the actor predicted the direction the Duffer Brothers might go, and his description will definitely spark some curiosity. 'Like David Lynch's Twin Peaks. Sort of an anthology and different tones but similar universe or same universe. I think set in different places and all tied together through this mythology of the Upside Down. 'Don't even talk about Hawkins. Don't have any mention of our characters. They were toying around with ideas in case Netflix wanted them. I'm sure they do, and I'm sure it will happen, but there's nothing official. 'I think the coolest way, the way that I would do it, there has to be labs everywhere. If there was one in Hawkins, there's one in Russia. Where else could they be?' That sounds awesome. It's a fresh take that could expand the universe in some really cool and interesting ways. The idea that there are secret labs all over the globe? That opens the door for some creepy and wild stories. Interestingly, there's already one spinoff coming out, Stranger Things: Tales From '85 , an animated series styled after classic Saturday morning cartoons. But, that project centers on the original crew and doesn't really lean into the anthology direction Wolfhard is talking about. According to Matt Duffer, no one else has figured it out. Except Wolfhard. 'Nobody — not Netflix, not any of the producers, not any of the directors, not any of the actors — nobody else has figured out what the spinoff is. Finn figured out, which is pretty remarkable. We've mind-melded with this kid a bit.' The series finale of Stranger Things is just around the corner. The first batch of episodes hits Netflix on November 26, 2025, with more coming on Christmas, and the story ends for good on New Year's Eve.

Pokémon type chart: all types, strengths, and weaknesses
The motto for Pokémon might be to 'catch 'em all' but the real goal of these RPGs is to beat your rivals and become the best there ever was. Your first step on this journey is always picking your starter, which comes in one of three types: Fire, Water, or Grass. However, there are way more types to encounter that you need to account for. Types represent how your Pokémon will do against another one in battle, with some types having big advantages over others. You could probably figure out that Fire is super effective against Grass without any help, but what about all the obscure types added to Pokémon games over the years, like Dark, Steel, and Fairy? I'll give you the most current Pokémon type chart so you can easily build the best team. Pokémon type chart Because it would be too complex to write out how each type interacts with all the others, visualizing each type's strengths and weaknesses with a handy chart is more practical and useful. For this, we turn to Poké type chart I've included below. To read it, you need to either start by identifying the attacking Pokémon on the left side of the grid and then line it up with the type of the Pokémon being attacked on the top. For example, if you are using a Poison type against a Ground type, you would be doing 1/2 damage. But, if you were to be attacking a Grass type you would be doing 2X damage. Recommended Videos Types determine whether or not attacks deal normal, 1/2, 2X, or no damage to the defending Pokémon. This is the cornerstone around which you should be designing your team composition. You might love Water types and have a ton of high-level ones, but you will need various other types to swap in to not only exploit weaknesses it can't, but also negate or reduce incoming damage if you encounter an Electric or Grass type that will deal double damage. You can technically brute force your way around type advantage for some battles, but once you get to the end-game trainers or fight online, you will need to know this chart type like the back of your hand. To use the type chart at a glance, you can just remember what each colored cell represents: White: Normal damage Red: 1/2 damage Green: 2X damage Black: No effect/ no damage There are also individual charts for every combination of dual types you can reference here. All Pokémon types As of 2025, there are currently 18 total Pokémon types. There were originally 15, with new additions like Fairy, Dark, and Steel being added in future generations. In addition to new types, the strengths and weaknesses have shifted over time, as well as the introduction of dual types. If Gen 10 adds another type, I will update this list to include the new addition. This is the current list of all possible Pokémon types: Normal Fire Water Electric Grass Ice Fighting Poison Ground Flying Psychic Bug Rock Ghost Dragon Dark Steel Fairy
