待望の安価ラップトップ! Microsoft Surface Laptop Go発表! - GIZMODO JAPAN

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 09:13 PM PDT

desimpul.blogspot.com

ついに!

多くのユーザーが「これがあればなぁ」と思っていただろう端末でました。MicrosoftからSurface Laptop Goの登場です。プロセッサがIntel第10世代Core i5で、550ドルから!(日本では8万4480円から)

Microsoftのバジェットラインナップには、安価って言いつつなんかちょっと高い気がするというモヤモヤがありました。例えば、Surdace Go 2。400ドル(6万5780円)スタートとはいえ、ちょっと仕様アップすると(当たり前ですが)値があがり、さらにキーボードでプラスの100ドル。気がつけばそんなにバジェット端末じゃなくなってしまうというね。そこで、Microsoftのバジェットラインナップをバジェットラインナップとして機能させる、それがSurface Laptop Goの存在なのかと!

550ドルのエントリーモデルのスペックは、CPUがIntel第10世代Core i5、64GB eMMCドライブ、RAMが4GB。価格とスペック見ると非常にお手頃。容量やRAMがもうちょいあればなぁという人は、オプションで256GB SSDにするもよし、RAMを8GBにあげるもよし。でも、エントリースペックと価格がこれってのが嬉しいわけで。もちろん、他を見れば、15インチ端末でもっと容量もRAMもいいやつはあるでしょう。でも、端末自体の品質やディスプレイは、Surface Laptop Goの方が上かと思いますけれど。そう、見た目や触り心地がチープじゃない。それがSurface Laptop Goの魅力の1つなんです。

カラバリは3色。アイスブルー、サンドストーン、そしてプラチナ。

ハードウェア面は、ディスプレイが12.45インチ(1536 x 1024)のタッチスクリーン。キーボードはフルサイズで、キーストロークは1.3mm、ガラス製トラックパッド。ウェブカム(720p)は、Windows Hello対応。電源ボタンに指紋センサ搭載のアップグレードオプションもあり。ポートは、Surface Connectorにオーディオジャック、USB-CとUSB-A。バッテリーは、Microsoftいわく1度のフル充電で13時間もつというので、これは7時間強のSurface Go 2の2倍ということになります。

発売は10月13日。ただいま予約注文受付中です。

Here's everything we know about the unapproved antibody drug Trump took to combat coronavirus - CNBC

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 09:08 PM PDT

Former Food and Drug Administration commissioner Dr. Scott Gottlieb told CNBC on Friday he believes the White House carefully considered all of its treatment options before it opted to give President Donald Trump the experimental coronavirus antibody cocktail from Regeneron Pharmaceuticals

"This was a wholly appropriate decision to give him active therapy, and then it just became a choice of which therapy," Gottlieb said on "Fast Money," prior to Trump being taken to Walter Reed Medical Center "out of an abundance of caution" following his coronavirus diagnosis. 

"I wouldn't infer anything from the fact they chose the Regeneron product over another product — other than they probably had confidence looking at the data on the Regeneron product that it seemed to be the most effective of the products, given what they knew," added Gottlieb, who led the regulatory agency under Trump from May 2017 to April 2019

Not everyone in the medical community agrees with Gottlieb about the decision to give Trump an experimental treatment. Some shared concerns about the preferential treatment provided to the president, as the drug has not been approved by federal regulators, and others pointed to the limited available data. 

On Twitter, as one doctor commented, "V.I.P. medicine doesn't mean better medicine when there is no data."

Regeneron confirmed it provided a single, 8-gram dose of its REGN-COV2 treatment for use by the president, whose coronavirus diagnosis was announced just before 1 a.m. ET Friday. Regeneron's antibody drug is still experimental and has not received emergency use approval from the FDA, but it was provided in response to a compassionate use request. 

CNBC's Meg Tirrell on Friday reported that a "limited number of patients" had also received the drug on that basis after speaking with Regeneron's chief scientific officer, Dr. George Yancopoulos. 

On Tuesday, Regeneron said its REGN-COV2 treatment improved symptoms and reduced viral loads in non-hospitalized patients who have mild to moderate Covid-19. That was based on results for the first 275 trial patients. At the time, the company indicated it plans to "rapidly" discuss the early results with regulatory agencies, including the FDA. 

Regeneron is not the only company developing antibody drugs; Eli Lilly and GlaxoSmithKline also are testing monoclonal antibodies, which experts have viewed as a promising potential Covid-19 treatment.

Regeneron's REGN-COV2 is an experimental shot of lab-generated antibodies that mimics how the body would mount a reaction to a foreign invader. The goal is to boost the immune system's defenses, rather than to wait on human biology to do its job. 

In a memo provided Friday by the White House, Trump's physician, Dr. Sean Conley, said the president was given Regeneron's antibody cocktail "as a precautionary measure." Conley also wrote that Trump "remains fatigued but in good spirits." 

Trump also has a low-grade fever, NBC News reported Friday afternoon, citing three people familiar with his condition. 

The White House did not immediately respond to CNBC's request for comment on the decision to give Trump the antibody drug.

Gottlieb said he thought that if Trump were going to receive any early treatments for Covid-19, it was likely to be Gilead Sciences' remdesivir. The antiviral drug has received emergency approval from the FDA, but for hospitalized coronavirus patients who are severely ill

"I would have thought they would use remdesivir because there's more data around that drug at this point and we are seeing that drug be used earlier and earlier in the course of the disease," Gottlieb said, adding that he is "optimistic" about Regeneron's drug, but it's still very early.

"You might get a lot of benefit but you just don't know," he said. 

However, Gottlieb pushed back on any suggestion that Trump receiving Regeneron's treatment should be cause for alarm. He said virtually any other American, at this point of their coronavirus diagnosis, would just be monitored by medical professionals, hoping symptoms don't intensify.

"For a president of the United States, if you have available therapy, I think you deliver it, especially if you understand the safety profile of these products and you believe they are otherwise going to be safe and aren't going to worsen his condition," Gottlieb said. 

Some doctors are skeptical, however, of the decision to treat Trump with the antibody drug. "It is bad science, bad medicine and bad ethics to give unproven things to powerful people," wrote Dr. Vinay Prasad in a Twitter post. Prasad is an associate professor of medicine and practicing hematologist-oncologist at University of California San Francisco. 

"I will say that in no case have I heard of a patient, especially of the importance of the president, getting an experimental infusion of an antibody cocktail," added Seattle-based pulmonologist Dr. Vin Gupta on MSNBC, who also pressed for more information from the White House.

In addition to Regeneron's antibody cocktail, the president is also taking zinc, Vitamin D and the histamine-blocker famotidine. 

The famotidine treatment was "speculative" at this point, even though there are studies looking at whether it could be beneficial on coronavirus patients, Gottlieb said.

"There are studies that suggest if you're low on Vitamin D, Vitamin D supplementation can be beneficial, but you'd want to be on Vitamin D prior to getting sick," he added. "I don't think any of those drugs are problematic or could cause harm, I just don't know that they're going to provide a treatment effect in this setting."

Disclosure: Scott Gottlieb is a CNBC contributor and is a member of the boards of Pfizer, genetic testing start-up Tempus and biotech company Illumina. Pfizer has a manufacturing agreement with Gilead for remdesivir. Gottlieb also serves as co-chair of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings′ and Royal Caribbean's "Healthy Sail Panel."

ジャニーズJr.の山本亮太が契約解除 デビューできないタレントの「地獄」 - livedoor

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 09:04 PM PDT

ジャニーズJr.の山本亮太が契約解除 デビューできないタレントの「地獄」 - livedoor

 ジャニーズジュニア内ユニット「宇宙Six」の山本亮太(30)が文春オンラインで?闇スロット店?への出入りを報じられ、今月1日付でジャニーズ事務所から契約解除された。

 同事務所は2日、公式サイトで「この度、山本につきまして、スロット店で賭博行為に及んでいたという重大な契約違反行為が確認されたため、弊社は、昨日をもちまして山本との専属契約を解除いたしました」と発表。「皆様には突然のご報告となり、ご迷惑をおかけいたしまして、誠に申し訳ございません」と謝罪した。

 これに伴い、主演舞台「WBB vol.17『川崎ガリバー once again』」は全公演中止となった。

 山本は2001年にジャニーズ事務所に入った?ベテランジュニア?。16年に宇宙Sixが結成されるまでは、「They武道」というユニットに所属。ダンスやアクロバチックな動きが際立っている人が選ばれ、山本はその分野では群を抜いていた。

 その一方で「チャラチャラした面があり、女性関係の素行が良くないと評判だった。事務所幹部にも目をつけられていた」(芸能関係者)という。
 
 ジャニーズはCDデビューを果たすと「デビュー組」と呼ばれるようになるが、宇宙Sixを含めて全員が全員デビューできるわけではない。

「デビューできずに年月だけが過ぎていく。それでも事務所の方からクビを言い渡すことはない。だからいつまでも事務所に在籍してもいい。数年前まで40代の佐野瑞樹がジャニーズジュニアにいましたから」(音楽関係者)

 リストラがないのだから優しい会社のようにも映るが、ベテランジュニアは肩身が狭い。

 前出芸能関係者は「デビューできない若い子は舞台の仕事が回ってきたりするのですが、30歳を超えると、それもだんだんなくなっていく。バックダンサーの仕事も、若い子にお鉢が回って徐々に仕事を減らされていく。給料制ではないから、当然、仕事がないとギャラだって入ってこない。居場所はなくなりますよね」と話す。

 さらにジャニーズは副業を禁止としているため、生活に困窮する場合がある。中には?ヒモ男?となり、女子に養ってもらうケースもあるとか。山本も文春オンラインによれば、本命恋人だけでなく、複数の女性と?関係?があった。

 華やかに見えるジャニーズも厳しい生存競争の上で成り立っているのだ。

Minnesota United FC sends signals that the goal is to win now - Minneapolis Star Tribune

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 08:42 PM PDT

Minnesota United on Thursday traded promising striker Mason Toye away to Montreal two weeks shy of his 22nd birthday — just days after it acquired the fifth-leading goal scorer in MLS history, 36-year-old Kei Kamara.

It was the second time in 10 months the Loons said goodbye to a young goal scorer whom they drafted highly. It's also another decision that indicates a team that added gifted 24-year-old Emanuel Reynoso and 31-year-old defender Bakaye Dibassy in this transfer window firmly is aimed to win now.

Last November, they left 2017 No. 1 overall pick Abu Danladi available in the expansion draft, and Nashville SC made the injury-prone forward the second player selected in a two-team draft.

On Thursday, they traded the 2018 MLS SuperDraft's seventh overall pick to Montreal after Toye read the wall's writing and requested a trade to a team where he could be the starting striker.

They're also in discussions with European and South America clubs to loan 20-year-old Uruguayan designated player Thomas Chacon so he'll play consistently.

Minnesota United coach Adrian Heath said his team saw "an opportunity" when Colorado shopped Kamara and seized it, hoping to bring him back after his contract expires at season's end.

"When we have everybody fit and healthy, this team can compete with anybody," Heath said. "The unfortunate part of late is that has not been the case. We've had a horrendous run of injuries that hasn't helped us. But I do know that once we get everybody fit and healthy, we think we can win."

"If that means winning now, yeah."

Heath said his team proved as much at the midsummer MLS is Back Tournament, where it reached the semifinals before losing to Orlando City. The Loons used last winter to strengthen their depth, adding MLS-experienced yet still young role players Jacori Hayes, Marlon Hairston, Raheem Edwards and young Paraguayan striker Luis Amarilla.

They used the current transfer window that opened in mid-August to land Reynoso after a long courtship and Dibassy and still have money and room to make more moves before the window ends Oct. 29.

"We're still not finished," Heath said.

Nevertheless, the Loons are 2-5-2 since MLS restarted its regular season after its tournament and are sixth in the Western Conference, two points from missing the playoffs expanded this season but just two as well from third place.

"We're more than a match when we get our best 11 on the field," Heath said. "The sooner we get that, the better."

But the Loons have played lately with what Heath has called "half a team" that is missing injured two-time MLS Defender of the Year Ike Opara, captain Ozzie Alonso, veteran Ethan Finlay, energetic Kevin Molino and not one but two goalkeepers. That's both backup Gregory Ranjitsingh and starter Tyler Miller, who underwent hip surgery and is sidelined for the season.

Molino could return from a hamstring injury Saturday against FC Cincinnati. Heath called Alonso and Finlay targeted for next Saturday's game against FC Dallas. Heath said there has been no change — "As you were" — in Opara's status but has said repeatedly Opara will play again this season even though he is out with an "undisclosed" injury or condition since late June.

Heath said his staff pursued Thursday's trade for a week, both to fulfill Toye's wishes for a new start and for what he called "good value." The Loons received $600,000 total in general-allocation money, a 2021 second-round pick and a percentage of the transfer fee if/when Montreal sells Toye's rights.

He knows it's a gamble, sending Toye to play for Thierry Henry, one of the sport's greatest scorers and one of Toye's idols.

"This is not a decision with Mason that we made lightly," Heath said. "I'm fully aware of what will come back on me if in a year or two Mason is flourishing and scoring goals. You get paid to make decisions. Hopefully, you make more right than wrong, and we all know the consequences if you make too many wrong."

사건은 지난 2017년으로 거슬러 올라간다. 비만 수술 후 심각한 부작용으로 결국 뇌졸중이 오면서 생사의 갈림길에 선 카밀라는 중환자실에 78일 동안 누워 혼수상태에 빠지게 됐다.

혼수상태에서 깨어난 카밀라는 충격적인 사실과 마주하게 됐다. 바로 4개월간 남편이 자신을 두 번밖에 찾아오지 않았고, 어머니는 단 한 번도 찾아오지 않았다는 것이었다.

이후 그녀는 아버지로부터 친어머니와 자신의 남편이 '불륜' 관계임을 듣게 됐다.

In a tweet after the release of "Bet You Wanna," Cardi revealed that she struggled to keep her verse "PG."

Meet Nathan Apodaca, the viral Fleetwood Mac TikTok star - Los Angeles Times

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 07:47 PM PDT

Nathan Apodaca is a man of many talents.

Most notably, those include skateboarding down an Idaho highway, sipping Ocean Spray Cran-Raspberry juice right out of the bottle and lip syncing to Fleetwood Mac's 1977 hit "Dreams." All at the same time.

But the TikTok star can also bag and stack potatoes, fight fires and embroider beanies with the best of them.

After his aforementioned "Dreams" video went viral Saturday — it now has 19 million views and 3.7 million likes (and counting) — Apodaca's internet fame even spiked interest in Fleetwood Mac. Streams for "Dreams" have more than doubled, while sales have nearly tripled since his video became a sensation.

When Apodaca, 37, isn't introducing old-school jams to a younger audience on the popular social video app TikTok, he works as a laborer at a potato warehouse in his native Idaho. (He was born and raised there, though his dad is of Mexican descent and his mom hails from the Northern Arapaho tribe in Wyoming.)

"We've been working ever since the pandemic, getting potatoes out to whoever needs them," Apodaca told the Los Angeles Times Thursday via Zoom.

As his viral fame ballooned, Apodaca realized he needed to talk to the big boss at the potato warehouse, where his father also works.

"I was like, 'So, I don't know what's going on. I have some things going on where I have a couple interviews. I just need to get this taken care of,'" he said.

"Well, we're proud of you," his boss responded. "We're excited for you."

Within a few days, Apodaca had an L.A.-based manager fielding interview requests.

On the side, Apodaca started to work to suppress wildland fires in 2013 as part of a "camp crew" (although he's not currently fighting the West Coast's wildfires, which have reached Idaho.)

The newly minted social media star also casually drops the word "bobbin" in conversation: He knows the ins and outs of embroidery machines well by now, after recently purchasing one of his own.

"I went and bought myself an embroidery machine with my taxes," he said. "And I started making beanies, and I made like, $1,000 off those beanies, man. And it was crazy. After my machine paid for itself, I was rolling for a minute."

Advertisement

Those beanies feature Apodaca's nickname, "Doggface" — in honor of hip-hop legend Nate Dogg — as well as an assortment of his catchphrases, including "DOWN FOO!" and "420 SOULJAZ."

"I was like, 'Man, I'mma buy this machine, I'm gonna push this button and it's gonna go to town. I'm not gonna have to do nothing,'" Apodaca thought to himself. "And then I'm sitting there and I bought it and I went to my lady, and she's like, 'Do you even know how to do this?' And I was like, 'No, can you show me real quick?'"

The "Doggface" design is also a nod to Apodaca's TikTok handle, @420doggface208.

"420's what I do," he said, referring to cannabis culture. "Doggface is the name. And 208's where I stay." (208 is the area code for Idaho Falls, where Apodaca lives and works.)

Back when TikTok was still known as Musical.ly, Apodaca simply went by @doggface208. His two daughters, Makyla and Angelia, persuaded their dad to give the app a try.

His youngest, Makyla, was engrossed in the app when she came to visit from Montana, where the girls live with their mom.

"I seen her doing some of the dances, and I was like, 'Wow, that looks pretty cool,'" Apodaca said. "And I was like, 'I know I could do that.' And then she's like, 'Yeah, right.'

"And I was like, 'Well, watch me.' And then she filmed me, and me and her started doing it. Then she's like, 'Whoa.' She's like, 'Yeah, that's pretty cool. We actually did it; we made a video.'"

Apodaca was hooked. His carefree, goofy nature translates well for the app and its dance challenges.

Eventually, his daughter Makyla caved and helped him set up an account of his own — just as Musical.ly was rebranded as TikTok around November 2017.

Under the @doggface208 handle, Apodaca tried his hand at "The Git Up," a dance trend coined by TikTok user Harvey Bass to a song by the same name.

Makyla hopped on her dad's skateboard and rolled backward, filming him as he grooved along to the country song.

In less than 24 hours, Apodaca racked up 700,000 views and 100,000 likes.

"And I just hear the bling, bling, bling: the likes, the hearts," he said. "And I'm just like, 'What's goin' on?' Sittin' there gettin' on cloud nine."

After his first brush with internet fame, Apodaca almost stopped posting.

"Because I was like, satisfied, happy," he said. "And then my oldest daughter is the one that told me, 'No, you got followers. You're dumb if you just stop now.' I was like, Well, what am I gonna do?'

"She's like, 'Well, duh, you always dancing. Just dance!'"

Gradually, Apodaca built up 132,000 followers on that account — until TikTok banned him for a video promoting his merchandise and beanies toward the end of last year.

Not to fear. A self-proclaimed stoner, he switched over to the @420doggface208 account in January, slowly building up a fan base for his throwback tracks and happy-go-lucky perspective on life.

"Everybody always says 'do more skating videos.' … I just do me, basically," he said. "And it puts smiles on faces. And that's what makes me happy about it."

In the "Dreams" clip, it turns out, he was longboarding to work after his car battery died.

"I use my penny board when I want to go somewhere real quick, real fast," Apodaca clarified. "I use my skateboard when I'm messing around and want to try to break my ankle. And then I use my longboard when I wanna go coast."

Although he's now famous as a Fleetwood Mac fan (his mom loves Stevie Nicks, he said), the TikToker listens to just about anything and everything. He couldn't come up with a genre he didn't like.

"I honestly listen to everything: I've listened to country, being in Idaho, obviously," Apodaca said. "I love reggae. I listen to freakin' EDM. I like anything that gots a beat. And that's why my daughters, they always laugh at me. Because it don't matter where we're at: If I hear a song, and it's moving, my body just does what it does."

That bottle of Ocean Spray he gulps in his "Dreams" video? He buys the big jugs to save money and estimates he goes through about one a day. The colder, the better.

As for that feather tattoo on the side of his head, it represents his mom's Native side of the family, and contains the Northern Arapaho flag.

"I'm Native-Mexican," Apodaca said. "I've always embraced both sides of my dad's heritage, my mom's heritage. Cholo all the way. I live it. I love it. It don't matter. They can label me, whatever they want, but I'll live it."

Not even a week into his viral success, Apodaca is taking the newfound attention in stride. Since Saturday, he has received $10,000 in donations from fans via Venmo, Cash App and PayPal. He's "feeling blessed," he says, and plans to spend that money on his parents, car repairs and a new RV.

And his "Dreams" video even made fans out of Fleetwood Mac members. The band's official Twitter account shared the clip not long after he posted it, with the caption, "We love this!"

"I obviously ain't asking nothing [from] them," Apodaca said, "because they put out that genius, so big ups to them. I'm just happy the world can vibe with me on it. And I've been blessed by the fans. They've been blessing me."

Inter want to sign Chelsea's Marcos Alonso, as Napoli enter the race for Bakayoko - Goal

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 07:42 PM PDT

A host of big signings are set to move before the close of the transfer window with talks taking place

Inter have registered an interest in signing Chelsea's Marcos Alonso on loan with an option to buy but the Blues would prefer to see the defender leave in a permanent deal.

The 29-year-old's status at Stamford Bridge has changed rapidly in the last week after a half-time row with manager Frank Lampard when the Blues were trailing 3-0 to West Brom.

Lampard substituted Alonso at half-time, making him at fault for two goals in his post-match interview and left him out of the squad to face Tottenham on Tuesday night in the Carabao Cup.

The Spain international is now seeking to leave west London and Antonio Conte's Inter side are once again interested in Alonso after trying to sign him last January.

Conte had been interested in bringing in fellow left-back Emerson Palmieri from Chelsea on a similar deal and the Serie A giants are considering both players ahead of a move that likely won't go through until the final hours of deadline day on Monday, October 5.

Indeed, having signed Ben Chilwell from Leicester, Chelsea only want to sell one of their two left-backs and Inter only need to sign one this summer having agreed a deal to sign Matteo Darmian from Parma.

Inter's desire to loan Alonso is an indictment of a difficult selling market for Chelsea even after making six major signings at a combined cost of £220 million ($275m).

Ross Barkley recently left on loan for Aston Villa and Ruben Loftus-Cheek is drawing similar interest from several Premier League clubs including West Ham. However, his £150,000-a-week wages are a problem for the sides who are considering him, leaving open the possibility he could remain in west London.

Roma are expected to sign Chris Smalling from Manchester United to end interest in Antonio Rudiger and a possible return to the Stadio Olimpico for the Chelsea defender.

It leaves Paris Saint-Germain as the frontrunners for Rudiger, with Tottenham's interest in the centre-half dependent on the Blues allowing him to move to a local rival and a competitor for a top-four finish in the Premier League.

Spurs have been knocked back in their enquiry for Juventus centre-back Merih Demiral , with his long-term future remaining in Turin.

PSG are also attempting to sign Tiemoue Bakayoko on loan from Chelsea but the Blues similarly want to plan for his permanent exit with just two years remaining on his current contract.

AC Milan have long been negotiating with the Blues but have been unsuccessful in their attempts to re-sign the one-time France international. Meanwhile, Napoli have joined the race after coach Gennaro Gattuso identified the midfielder as a good option for his side.

Everton are closing in on Norwich City's Ben Godfrey in a deal that could be worth £30m ($39m) including add-ons which will end their interest in taking Fikayo Tomori on loan.

Bayern Munich remain admirers in Callum Hudson-Odoi after trying to sign him last summer and the January before, but Chelsea are unlikely to sanction his release right now.

Baba Rahman is weighing up six loan offers ahead of a move away from Chelsea on loan once again, while Jake Clarke-Salter is deciding between a number of clubs, including Trabzonspor and Club Brugge.

Academy star Jon Russell completed his first loan move to Accrington Stanley in League One to become the 21st player to go out on loan from west London.

'히든싱어6' 설운도 우승, 모창능력자 사연에 울컥 "내가 곡 줄 것" - 머니투데이

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 07:22 PM PDT

(서울=뉴스1) 장아름 기자 = '히든싱어6' 추석 특집 원조가수로 나선 '국민 트로트 신사' 설운도가 무명의 설움을 견디며 노력 중인 모창능력자의 사연에 눈물을 보이는 인간미와 함께 최종 우승, 한가위 연휴를 훈훈하게 물들였다.

지난 2일 방송된 JTBC '히든싱어6'(기획 조승욱, 연출 홍상훈 신영광)에는 1982년 데뷔, 40년 가까이 독보적인 트로트계 싱어송라이터로 군림하고 있는 설운도가 원조가수로 출연했다.

판정단으로는 '트로트 손자' 홍잠언, '국민 할매' 김영옥, '트로트 삼촌' 김수찬 신인선 류지광 고재근, '트로트 고모' 조혜련 등이 나섰다. 데뷔곡 '잃어버린 30년'이 하루 만에 히트곡이 된 기록으로 기네스북에 등재되기도 한 설운도는 "나와 닮은 사람이 정말 있을지 궁금하다"며 넘치는 자신감을 보였다.

대망의 첫 미션곡은 판정단 모두에게 떼창을 이끌어낸 '다함께 차차차'였다. 흥 넘치는 노래가 끝난 뒤, 조혜련은 "전국을 다녀봐도 똑같은 사람이 없다고 했는데, 다 비슷하다"며 혀를 내둘렀다. '설운도 전문가' 홍잠언과 김영옥은 "3번이 가장 아니었고, 5번이 진짜 설운도"라고 했고, 류지광과 에이프릴 이나은도 이에 동의했다. 하지만 이희진과 노을 강균성은 '5번이 가장 설운도 같지 않았다"고 했고, 조혜련과 우연이는 각각 4번과 1번을 진짜 설운도로 지목해 대혼란을 초래했다.

이런 가운데 6번이 132표로 1위를 차지했고, 진짜 설운도는 5번(194표)에서 나와 2위에 올랐다. 탈락은 총 364표를 받은 3번 '하동 설운도' 손빈아였다. 생각보다 모든 번호의 득표수 차이가 별로 나지 않자, 설운도는 "내가 엄청나게 두드러질 거라고 생각했는데"라며 놀라워했다.

2라운드 미션곡은 1997년 설운도가 발표한 '사랑의 트위스트'였다. 설운도는 "별다른 음악 교육을 받지 않았지만 곡을 쓰기 위해 하루에 피아노 한 대를 부술 정도로 연습하고, 3000장의 음반을 들은 끝에 귀가 트였다"고 싱어송라이터로서의 남다른 노력을 밝혔다.

노래가 끝난 뒤 홍잠언은 "2번이 설운도 선생님"이라고 했지만, 김영옥은 "1번이 진짜 설운도씨고, 2번은 '샹하이' 발음이 좀 아니었다"고 지적했다. '손자와 할매' 홍잠언과 김영옥이 팽팽하게 대립하는 가운데, 진짜 설운도는 2번에서 나왔고 두 라운드 연속 정답을 맞힌 홍잠언은 환호했다. 설운도는 "노력하면 안 되는 게 없다는 걸 실감했다"며 "모창능력자들이 정말 너무나 노력하셨을 것"이라고 말했다. 결과 발표에서 또한 홍잠언이 지목한 4번 '부산 설운도' 박상운이 총 968표(득표율 46.7%)로 절반에 가까운 표를 받아 탈락했고, 177표로 득표율 8.6%를 기록한 2번 설운도가 1위를 차지했다. 그러나 2위를 차지한 5번 역시 193표(득표율 9.3%)로 1위 설운도와 단 16표밖에 차이가 나지 않았다.

4명이 남은 가운데, 3라운드 미션곡으로는 흥겨운 삼바 리듬이 돋보이는 '쌈바의 여인'이 제시됐다. 설운도는 이 노래에 대해 "나훈아나 남진 선배를 내가 흉내 내 봤자 소용 없으니, 설운도만의 노래를 만들기 위해 쌈바, 차차차, 펑키 등 다양한 시도를 했다"고 돌아봤다. 홍잠언은 라운드 시작을 앞두고 "어른의 향기가 풍기는 사람을 찾아야 할 것"이라고 조언했다.

혼란 속에 3라운드 투표가 끝난 뒤, 진짜 설운도는 2번에서 나왔고 모창능력자들의 자기소개가 이어졌다. 1번 '대전 설운도' 한상귀는 노래교실 보조강사를 하며 야간에는 대리운전을 병행하는 모창능력자였다. 대리운전 손님에게 "성공하면 TV에서 보고 싶다"는 말을 듣고 큰 힘을 얻었다는 그의 사연에 설운도는 "갑자기 옛 생각이 난다"며 울컥해 눈물을 보였다. 3번 '원주 설운도' 박진현은 22세에 불과한 청년으로 설운도 같은 유명 트로트 싱어송라이터를 꿈꾸고 있었고, 4번 '정읍 설운도' 이현승은 지적장애 1급인 큰딸을 위해 노래를 시작한 남다른 사연을 갖고 있었다. 이런 가운데, 4번 이현승이 859표(득표율 52.1%)로 탈락했고, 설운도는 109표(득표율 6.6%)로 다시 한 번 1위를 달렸다.

마지막 4라운드 미션곡은 '미스터트롯' 진 임영웅이 불러 화제가 됐던 숨은 명곡 '보랏빛 엽서'였다. 모창능력자 한상귀는 "이 노래를 부를 각오로 보랏빛 옷을 입었다. 정말 아름답게 부르겠다"고 말했고, 박진현은 "마음을 완전히 내려놨지만 다시 한 번 붙잡아 볼 생각이 생긴다"고 각오를 전했다. 감성을 적시는 노래가 끝난 뒤 한상귀는 1번, 설운도는 2번, 박진현은 3번에서 나왔다.

가장 먼저 발표된 3위는 126표(득표율 7.1%)를 얻은 박진현이었고, 설운도와 한상귀가 긴장감 속에 조명을 받았다. 이어 MC 전현무는 설운도의 우승을 발표했다. 설운도는 1781표 중 1065표(득표율 59.8%)로 절반을 훨씬 넘긴 표를 얻어 우승했고, 한상귀는 590표(득표율 33.1%)로 상금 331만 원을 획득했다. 한상귀는 "선생님, 앞으로도 트로트 황태자로서 좋은 노래를 들려주시라"고 축하를 건넸지만, 설운도는 "들려달라고 하지 말고, 이 자리에 오도록 하라"며 한상귀를 격려했다. 또 "한상귀씨처럼 좋은 후배를 만났으니, 내가 곡은 확실히 줍니다"라고 말해 모두를 감동시켰다.

추석 특집답게 훈훈했던 이날의 무대를 지켜본 홍잠언은 "정말 쫄깃했다"고 '꼬마 평론가'다운 소감을 전했고, 김영옥은 "정말 다 잘하신다. 원조가수를 그렇게 잘 흉내 내는 걸 보면 정말 신기하다. 모두 잘 되길 바란다"고 모창능력자들을 응원했다.

'히든싱어6'는 매주 금요일 오후 9시 방송된다.

【速報】「Google Launch Night In」のポイントを簡単チェック。日本で発売が開始している新商品も! - ガジェット通信

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 07:13 PM PDT

desimpul.blogspot.com 【速報】「Google Launch Night In」のポイントを簡単チェック。日本で発売が開始している新商品も!

日本時間の10月1日3時より待望のGoogle製品発表会「Google Launch Night In」が開催され、噂通りGoogle TV with Chromecast、新型Nestスピーカー、Pixel4a5G、Pixel5などの新商品・サービスが続々と明るみになりました。Googleは今回、WITHコロナを意識したサービスにも取り組んでいます。

「Chromecast for Google TV」はリモコン付き

最初に発表されたのは、テレビに接続して利用する映像ストリーミング端末「Chromecast for Google TV」。Googleが2016年に発売した「Chromecast Ultra」は円形でしたが今回は楕円形になり、Sky(水色)、Snow(白)、Sunrise(赤)の3色カラバリで展開しています。また、Googleアシスタント機能(マイク)搭載のリモコンがついていて、見たい動画を音声検索したり同じWi-Fiネットワークにあるスマートホーム製品をコントロールしたりすることもできます。YouTubeとNetflix(サービスへの加入が別途必要)を直接起動できる専用ボタンもあります。

使い方は、AndroidをプリインストールしたスマートTVそのものですが、スマホと連動させることで視聴リストなどが作れる点で優れています。

米国では発表当日に、49.99ドル(約5300円)で発売がスタートしました。2020年末までには他国でも発売するそうで、日本でも提供予定とのことです(発売時期と価格は不明)。

次世代Nestスピーカー「Google Nest Audio」

続いて発表されたのは、Google Nest Audio。こちらは既に日本での販売が開始している商品です。

次世代Nestスピーカーの特徴は、重低音・大きなボリューム音・自然でクリアな音質の維持。75ミリミッドウーファーが重低音を響かせ、既存のGoogle Homeと比べて低音が50%増強され、ボリュームは75%大きくなっています。そして、内部にある19ミリのツイーターが、調和した高周波とクリアなボーカルサウンドを実現しています。

Media EQ機能は、音楽やGoogleアシスタント等など聴いているものに応じて自動的にイコライザーを調整します。またAmbient IQは、室内の環境音に応じてGoogle アシスタントやニュース等の音量を調整してくれる機能です。

また、Google Nest Audioや既存モデルのGoogle Home・Google Nest Mini・Google Nest Hubをグループ管理し、複数台で同じ曲をステレオのように再生することができます。

Google Nest Audioの本体サイズは、幅124mm×奥行78mm×高さ175mmで、色はSage・Sand・Sky・Chalk・Charcoalの5色展開です。プロセッサは1.8GHzのクアッドコアA53で、802.11b/g/n/ac(2.4GHz/5GHz)Wi-Fi接続、電源は30W・24Vの外部アダプター、センサーは静電容量方式タッチセンサーとなっています。

日本での販売価格は1万1,150円(日本で販売されるのはChalk(白)とCharcoal(黒)の2色のみ)です。2020年10月15日までの早期購入キャンペーンを利用すると、10%分のGoogleストアクレジットがもらえたり、2台同時購入時には2,500円の割引で買えたりします。

高コスパ5Gスマホ「Pixel4a5G」

Pixel4a5Gは既存モデルPixel4aの5G対応モデルですが、本体サイズ、中身やカメラ構成はPixel4aから大きく変更され、むしろPixel5に近いモデルになっています。オンラインストア「Google Store」での価格は税込6万500円。日本では2020年10月15日に発売開始で、10月1日から予約を受け付けています(ソフトバンクでも予約可能)。カラバリはSorta Sage(淡い緑)とJust Black(黒)の2色展開です。

Worldwide markets plunge after Trump reveals has coronavirus - Daily Mail

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 07:08 PM PDT

  • Europe's markets rocked by Trump's tweet revealing he had virus early Friday 
  • One trader in Tokyo said his 'head was about to explode' when news broke
  • Safe-haven currencies and gold rallied as investors looked for security 
  • Market analysts predict it's 'the last of the Biden pricing getting done' as the US president looks set to lose crucial campaigning hours to the 'China virus'

Global markets nosedived this morning after US President Donald Trump and his wife Melania tested positive for coronavirus.

In initial deals, London's benchmark FTSE 100 index dropped 1.1 percent, Frankfurt's DAX 30 lost 1.4 percent and the Paris CAC 40 also shed 1.4 percent.

One trader in Tokyo said his 'head was about explode' when the news from Washington broke as prices for both Brent Crude and US Crude oil slumped by 3 percent. 

Trump, who has boasted of how he brought US markets to record highs, revealed he had the virus in a tweet shortly before 6am UK time: 'Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!' 

Market analysts said it was 'the last of the Biden pricing getting done' with investors banking that the illness will lay Trump low ahead of crucial campaign hours before November 3. 

U.S. President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump arrive at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport to participate in the first presidential debate with Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden in Cleveland, Ohio, U.S., September 29, 2020

The news sent Dow futures tumbling 1.9 percent, while the S&P 500 shed 1.9 percent.

Safe-haven assets rallied, with the Japanese yen - a go-to in times of turmoil and uncertainty - rose to 105 per dollar, from 105.60 earlier in the day.

A TIMELINE OF THE PRESIDENT'S TRAVEL 

Saturday, September 26: Trump announces his Supreme Court pick at the White House, then travels to a rally in Pennsylvania with aides including Hope Hicks. 

Sunday, September 27: The president plays golf in Virginia, gives a press conference in the White House briefing room and hosts a reception for Gold Star families. 

Monday, September 28: Trump gives a press briefing and inspects pickup vehicles on the White House lawn.  

Tuesday, September 29: Hicks is aboard Air Force One with the president and Melania to travel to the first presidential debate in Cleveland. Hicks is seen leaving the jet without a mask. 

The president spars with Joe Biden in a chaotic debate. Trump family members do not wear masks during the debate, violating venue rules.  

Wednesday, September 30: Hicks travels on Marine One and on Air Force One to a rally in Minnesota Wednesday.

She is understood to have felt poorly on the way back, quarantining on the presidential plane to get home. 

Thursday, October 1:  Trump still travels to New Jersey for a fundraiser. 

Hicks tests positive. 

Trump says he is awaiting test results, before confirming he and wife Melania have tested positive for Covid-19. 

Friday, October 2: A political rally in Sanford, Florida is cancelled.

The greenback climbed against higher-yielding currencies including the Australian dollar and South Korean won, while gold jumped more than one percent and oil prices continued their downward spiral.

Japan's Nikkei sank 0.7 percent at the close of a volatile day in Tokyo following a hardware-related outage and traders were brought to their knees by the news from Washington.

'I feel like my head is about to explode,' said Takeo Kamai, head of execution services at CLSA Japan. 'When I heard the news (about Trump), I thought, 'Give me a break.'' 

Sydney, Singapore, Jakarta and Bangkok were all down more than one percent but Manila and Wellington both rose.  

Gold is trading up by around 0.2 percent, and investors have flocked to the safety of haven currencies. 

The president had taken a test after his close White House aide Hope Hicks had tested positive earlier in the day, meaning he will now have to go into quarantine just weeks before one of the most crucial elections the country has ever had.

His doctor Scott Conley said the couple intended to stay at the White House 'during their convalescence'.

'Rest assured I expect the president to continue carrying out his duties without disruption while recovering, and I will keep you updated on any future developments,' he added.

The White House cancelled a planned campaign rally in the crucial swing state of Florida on Friday, and 32 days before the November 3 vote against Democrat Joe Biden, it also looked certain Trump would have to cancel a slew of other trips scheduled for this weekend and next. 

Axi analyst Stephen Innes said the announcement would likely increase Biden's already good chances of winning.

'The risk-off reaction to Trump's positive Covid-19 test feels like the last of the Biden pricing is getting done,' he said in a note. 'The quarantine will mean he misses three swing state rallies - with critical Florida among them.'

Sentiment had already been weak as hopes for a new US rescue package fade.

Democrats pushed their latest $2.2 trillion proposal through the House, where they hold a majority, but without any opposition support, there is no chance it will be agreed by the Republican-dominated Senate.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin held a series of talks Thursday to find a way through the deadlock but when asked whether a chance still remained for an agreement, Pelosi replied: 'I don't know.'

WEDNESDAY: The crowd cheers as Air Force One arrives with President Donald Trump at Duluth International Airport on Wednesday. His counselor Hope Hicks had joined the president on the trip and felt poorly on the way home, according to reports

OANDA analyst Jeffrey Halley added that 'having built hopes higher steadily over the past few sessions that the US Republicans and Democrats were edging closer to a new fiscal stimulus package, a sense of deja vu has swept markets'.

He said that with Republicans offering about $600 billion less than Democrats, their difference was 'less insurmountable than previous weeks. Sadly, it appears there is no sign that either side is prepared to cross the spread, or even meet in the middle'.

The need for a new deal was highlighted by news that Americans' personal income had fallen more than expected in September, while several big-name firms including Walt Disney, American Airlines and United had cut tens of thousands of posts. 

For crude, 'a move higher is only possible if a fiscal agreement is reached', said Axi's Stephen Innes.

Markets in Hong Kong, Shanghai, Mumbai, Seoul and Taipei were all closed for holidays.   

How 74-year-old Trump's risk of hospitalization is five times greater than someone who contracts COVID in their 20s and he has a 90 times greater risk of death, according to CDC 

At 74 years old, the president is five times more likely to be hospitalized from the virus and 90 times more likely to die than a patient in their 20s, CDC figures show.

Trump and his wife Melania confirmed they had both tested positive for coronavirus early Friday, just hours after top White House aide Hope Hicks was confirmed to have contracted the virus.

Trump and Hicks traveled together on Air Force One multiple times over the last week, including to attend the shambolic opening presidential debate against Joe Biden on Tuesday night.

But while Hicks at 31 years old is considered a low risk patient, at 74 years of age, Trump faces a much higher chance of being hospitalized with the virus, and falling victim to its harshest symptoms.

According to CDC statistics, patients between the ages of 65 and 74 are five times more likely to be hospitalized with COVID-19 than someone aged 18 to 29.

Patients of Trump's age also have a 90 times greater risk of death in comparison to their younger counterparts. 

At 74 years of age, Trump faces a much higher chance of being hospitalized with the virus, and falling victim to its harshest symptoms.

For every 1,000 people in their mid-seventies or older who are infected by COVID-19, around 116 will die - a fatality rate of 8.6 percent.

Trends in coronavirus deaths have been clear since early in the pandemic, with studies determining that age is by far the strongest predictor of an infected person's risk of dying. 

Henrik Salje, an infectious-disease epidemiologist at the University of Cambridge, UK, said 'age cannot explain everything', as gender is also said to be a strong risk factor - with men twice as likely to die from the virus than women.

Salje's conclusions are supported by figures from the World Health Organization which said 1.7 percent of women who catch the virus will die compared to 2.8 percent of men, even though neither sex is more likely to catch it. 

Underlying health conditions and health issues, such as diabetes and obesity, also have a significant impact on how severe a case of COVID-19 might be. 

The CDC warned earlier this year that anyone considered 'severely obese' may raise risk of a severe reaction to COVID-19. 

Following his annual physical this year, Trump's physician Dr. Sean Conley said Trump was 6 feet, 3 inches tall and 244 pounds.

Trump, who was 73 at the time, had gained one pound since his last examination in 2019. It also showed the president's cholesterol level had slightly improved to 167 from 196 the year before. 

Officially, Trump's height and weight would equate to a body mass index (BMI) of 30.4 - a fraction over the 30.0 level to be considered obese in the lowest of three tiers. 

His previous doctor, Ronny Jackson, said in 2018 that Trump's 'overall health is excellent [but] ... he would benefit from a diet that is lower in fat and carbohydrates and from a routine exercise regiment.' 

Trump, the oldest president to ever take office, doesn't drink alcohol or smoke. However, he is known to enjoy fast food, steaks and ice cream, while golfing is his primary source of exercise.

Fact Check: Know the truth behind this viral video of cash pile on Brazil's street - India Today

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 06:47 PM PDT

Brazil, while on one hand, is regularly making headlines owing to reporting the second-highest number of deaths in the world due to the Covid-19 pandemic. On the other hand, Brazilian prosecutors have again targeted President Jair Bolsonaro's son Flavio Bolsonaro and accused him of embezzlement and money laundering.

Amid this, a viral social media video allegedly shows heaps of Brazilian currency in full public display in the middle of a road. It is being said that it is actually the money recovered from corrupt politicians and public servants in Brazil.

The caption to one such video uploaded on Twitter reads, "This is not a Building, these are the 4 Billion Dollars that the Brazilian Government has recovered from its corrupt politicians and public servants, the money is displayed in a public place for public viewing. One day we HOPE our Government of India displays such Loot."

India Today Anti Fake News War Room (AFWA) has found that the claim is misleading. These are fake currency notes displayed as part of a promotional event for a 2017 film - Federal Police: The Law Is for Everyone. The movie, however, was based on a true story of a corruption scandal in Brazil.

Similar claims are also viral on Facebook.

The archived versions of the posts can be seen here and here.

AFWA probe

With the help of the InVid tool and appropriate keywords, we found some images of the piles of notes similar to the one seen in the viral video carried by multiple Portuguese websites in 2017.

According to one such article published on August 29, 2017, the gimmick was part of the promotion of a film - Federal Police: The Law Is for Everyone, that tells the story of Operation Car Wash.

Operation Car Wash is an ongoing and allegedly world's biggest anti-corruption probe by the Federal Police of Brazil that began in 2014.

As per the report, the installation was over four meters in height and simulated the amount recovered during the last three years of Operation Car Wash Four billion Brazilian real.

The installation was placed at Curitiba, capital of the southern Brazilian state of Paraná between August 28 to September 7 in 2017. Curitiba is considered as the heart of the Car Wash investigation.

We also found a YouTube video where Luís Antônio Boudens, president of Fenapef, the largest representative entity of the Federal Police of Brazil can be seen speaking in front of the installation.

The title of the video uploaded on 29 August 2017 in the Portuguese language translates as, "Expectation at the premiere of the film Federal Police: The Law Is for Everyone".

The description of the video roughly translates into English as, "Fenapef's president, Luís Boudens, is in Curitiba and expects the film to faithfully portray the joint work of federal police, prosecutors and the judiciary. Boudens visited the "mountain of money" placed by the production of the film, which represents 4 billion Brazilian real."

Thus, we can safely say that the pile of money in the viral video is fake and was rather a promotional activity for a 2017 Brazilian movie.

INDIA TODAY FACT CHECK

[인터뷰②]김희원 “인생 바꿔 준 ‘아저씨’, 처음엔 사기 의심” - 스타투데이 - 매일경제

[매일경제 스타투데이 한현정 기자]

"스스로 제 연기에 만족해 본 적이 없어요. 늘 부족하고 아쉽기만 하죠. 재미요? 글쎄요. 아직도 긴장되고 떨리고 스트레스도 많이 받고…"

(인터뷰①에 이어) 30년차 배우의, 그것도 다수의 히트작이 있고, 인생 캐릭터도 갖고 있는, 김희원(49)의 겸손함 이상의 발언은 기이할 정도였다. "두려움도 스트레스도 많고 연기에 아쉬움도 큰데 어떻게 긴 시간 해올 수 있었나"라고 물으니, "나도 신기하다"고 답한다.

그는 영화 '담보'에서 호흡을 맞춘 아역 배우 박소이를 언급하며 "그저 놀랍고 신기하고 부럽더라. 감탄의 연속이었다. '엄마가 시켜서 억지로 하는 거냐'라고도 물어봤는데 너무 재미있다고 하더라. 점심 먹고 오후쯤 되면 우리들은 다 지쳐 있는데 아이는 에너지가 넘쳐 여기저기 뛰어다니며 즐거워 하는 모습이 행복해 보였다"고 말했다.

그러면서 "내 경우는 그렇지 않았다. 뜬금없이 고3때 학력고사 시험을 보다 그만두고 구인정보를 훑어보다가 유일하게 고졸도 뽑는 게 연극이라 무턱대고 시험을 보러 갔다. 태어나서 연극 한 편도 본 적이 없으면서"라고 회상했다.

"얼떨결에 시험에 붙어 연기란 걸 시작했는데 돈도 안 주고 불규칙하고 일만 많고…보람이라든가 재미라든가 뭐 하나 제게 좋은 게 없었어요. 그나마 3년차에 처음 객석에서 연극을 봤는데 그것마저도 너무 재미가 없어서 '설마 내가 저렇게 하나' 싶어 충격을 먹었죠. 수없이 그만둬야겠다 생각하다 기회만 생기면 자꾸 하고 있으니까 10년 정도 지나서 아예 싹을 자르려고 호주로 갔어요.(웃음) 그런데 또 하고 싶은 거예요. 이 일을 사랑했다는 걸 뒤늦게 알게 됐죠."

"그 후로는 행복했나"라고 물으니, "더 힘들어졌다"고 답해 웃음을 안긴다. 반전의 반전, 솔직하고도 재치 넘치는 천생 이야기꾼이다.

김희원은 "20대는 젊으니 그래도 어려워도 어떻게든 버텼는데 30대에도 돈을 못 버니까 미치겠더라. 또다시 후회했다. 밤마다 청과물 시장에서 손수레도 끌고, 동대문에서 지게도 지고, 수산물 시장에도 다니는 등 어디든 가서 무슨 일이든 다했다. 아르바이트를 끝없이 하면서 그렇게 계속 버텼다. 나도 그 이유를 모르겠다"고 털어놨다.

그렇게 버티다 비로소 영화 '아저씨'를 만났다. "시나리오를 보는 순간 느낌이 확 왔다"는 그는 "내 인생을, 배우 인생을 바꿔줄 거란 확신이 있었다. 큰 역할이었고 많은 걸 보여줄 게 기회였다. 한편으로는 그래서 사기라는 의심을 했는데 그래도 어쩔 수 없었다. 사기건 뭐건 받아들여야 할 간절한 시기였다"고 했다.

김희원은 배우 생활을 되돌아 보며

"'아저씨' 개봉 후에 자고 일어나니 상황이 달라졌어요. 정말 많은 게요. 정말 감사하고 기쁜 일이죠. 그 후로 한 참을 악역을 맡아 오면서 그 꼬리표를 떼겠다는 강박도 있었는데 행복한 고민이란 걸 깨닫게 됐어요. 어차피 배우의 수식어나 이미지 같은 건 관객들이 만들어주는 거잖아요. 제가 뭘 하든 관객들이 어떻게 보고 평가하냐에 달려 있으니까."

그런 시간들을 지나 충무로의 대세 배우가 된 지금은 새로운 변화, 연기의 완성도에 온 정신이 집중돼 있단다.

"어느 순간부터는 '어떻게 연기해야 하나'에 대한 고민과 괴로움 그리고 고통이 가장 커졌다"면서 "일단 시나리오가 재밌으면 무조건 한다. 그 다음은 내 연기력이다. 부족하지만 어떤 칭찬이든 받기 위해 노력하고 또 노력한다"고 말했다.

"요즘 들어 가장 행복한 건 다양한 역할이 제안 온다는 거예요. 감독님들도 기존의 모습과는 다른 새로운 면을 보고 싶어 하시고요. 대중 분들의 눈도 달라진 것 같아 감사하고 뭉클할 때가 많아요. 같은 악역이어도 정통 악역 보다는 오히려 반전 매력이 있는 게 더 많이 들어오고 생각지도 못한 것도 있고요. 그런 과정에서 제가 인간적으로나 배우로서나 더 성숙해질 수 있다고 믿어요. 좋은 연기로 지금의 응원에 보답하고 싶어요."

김희원은 지난 29일 개봉한 영화 '담보' 와 '국제수사'로 추석 연휴 극장 관객들과 만나고 있다.

블랙핑크 미국 포함 아이튠즈 57개국 1위 글로벌 강타 - 한국경제TV

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 06:22 PM PDT

desimpul.blogspot.com

블랙핑크 데뷔 4년 만의 첫 정규앨범 `THE ALBUM`이 전 세계 음악 팬들의 기대를 충족시키며 글로벌 차트를 강타했다.

블랙핑크의 정규 1집 타이틀곡 `Lovesick Girls`는 3일 오전 7시 기준(이하 한국 시간) 세계 최대 팝 시장인 미국을 비롯해 총 57개국 아이튠즈 송 차트 1위에 올랐다.

미국뿐 아닌 캐나다, 브라질, 멕시코, 칠레 등 북남미 지역 강세가 두드러진 가운데 스페인, 프랑스, 스웨덴, 그리스, 폴란드, 포르투갈, 노르웨이 등 유럽 국가 아이튠즈 송 차트 정상을 휩쓸었다.

일본을 필두로 중국, 홍콩, 마카오, 싱가포르, 태국, 베트남 등 아시아 지역에서도 단연 1위다. 특히 일본과 중국에서는 아이튠즈뿐 아닌 현지 주요 음원사이트에서 정규 1집 수록곡들을 전부 10위권 내 진입시키는 `줄세우기`에 성공했다.

타이틀곡 `Lovesick Girls`외 수록곡 `Bet You Wanna` `Pretty Savage` `Love To Hate Me` `You Never Know` `Crazy Over You` 등이 월드와이드 아이튠즈 송 차트 상위권에 나란히 진입하며 호평받고 있다.

실제 빌보드, 롤링스톤, ABC뉴스, AP, 포브스, 타임즈, 버라이어티 등 여러 주요 외신은 블랙핑크의 컴백 소식을 비중 있게 다뤘는데 대부분 앨범 전체를 집중 조명하며 큰 관심을 나타냈다.

그 중에서도 음악 평론지 롤링스톤은 블랙핑크의 정규 1집을 두고 "리스너들에게 아드레날린을 날려주는 흥겨운 결과물"이라며 "`Pretty Savage`는 아리아나 그란데의 `Thank You, Next`이후 가장 섹시한 오픈 트랙"이라고 표현했다.

타이틀곡 `Lovesick Girls` 뮤직비디오도 폭발적인 인기를 끌고 있다. `Lovesick Girls` 뮤직비디오는 공개 18시간 만에 5000만뷰를 넘어섰으며, 블랙핑크의 유튜브 채널 역시 정규 1집 발매 이후 구독자 수가 약 50만명이 증가해 현재 5000만명 돌파를 눈앞에 두고 있다.

블랙핑크의 정규 1집 `THE ALBUM`의 타이틀곡 `Lovesick Girls`는 지수와 제니가 작사 작곡에 참여해 의미를 더했다. 컨트리풍 기타 사운드 위에 서정적인 멜로디와 블랙핑크의 파워풀한 보컬이 더해진 곡으로, 인간은 왜 사랑에 상처받고 아파하면서도 또 다른 사랑을 찾아가는지에 대한 궁극적인 질문을 던졌다.

한편 블랙핑크의 `THE ALBUM` 피지컬 음반은 오는 6일 정식 출시된다. 예약 판매되고 있는 앨범의 선주문량은 100만장 이상을 기록 중이어서 K팝 걸그룹 단일 음반 역대 최초, 최고, 최다 신기록 경신을 예고했다.

'Still think it's a hoax?' Internet reacts to Trump and announcing he has coronavirus on Twitter - Daily Mail

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 06:08 PM PDT

'Still think it's a hoax Mr President?' Internet gloats after Donald Trump and wife Melania reveal they have coronavirus

  • Memes have flooded social media showing Trump gulping down on a bottle of bleach and a red MAGA-style hat with the words, 'It is what it is' on the front
  • Others commented on Trump's 'lack of taste' and his downplaying of the virus  
  • Comes after Trump announced he and Melania had the virus Friday morning

The internet has ridiculed Donald Trump and wife Melania after the President and First Lady announced that they had tested positive for Covid-19

Many Twitter users mocked the president's infamous suggestion that people could cure themselves by ingesting cleaning products, mocking up pictures of Trump knocking back a bottle of bleach. 

Others including celebrities such as Sophia Bush and Zach Braff also saw the irony in Trump's repeated attempts to play down the virus, asking whether the pandemic was still a 'hoax'. 

Trump's remark that the death toll 'is what it is' also attracted dark humour, including an image of a MAGA-style cap with the quote on the front.  

It comes after the president tweeted shortly before 1am EST: 'Tonight, @FLOTUS and I tested positive for COVID-19. We will begin our quarantine and recovery process immediately. We will get through this TOGETHER!' 

Scroll down for video.

Many commenters saw Trump's infection as 'karma', after the president, by his own admission to Bob Woodward, minimized the threat of the disease. 

In an interview with the Watergate journalist on March 19, Trump admitted that 'I always wanted to play it down' - despite having previously told Woodward that the disease was 'deadly stuff'. 

Some also pointed to Trump's gaudy penthouse as evidence of the 'lack of taste' which can be a coronavirus symptom. 

Another Twitter user turned the name of the disease into a scoreline, saying: 'Covid 19 - Trump 0'. 

Others imagined Joe Biden's reaction, with the 77-year-old former vice president set to be tested today after spending Tuesday's debate in fairly close proximity to Trump. 

One dark meme consisted of an image of Chinese leader Xi Jinping raising a wine glass, with the caption: 'Mission accomplished'. 

Trump openly blames China for the pandemic, which first emerged in the city of Wuhan at the very end of 2019.

Trump's diagnosis came after news that the president's top aide Hope Hicks contracted the virus after traveling with Trump on Air Force One and Marine One multiple times over the last week.

Trump is 74 years old, putting him at higher risk of serious complications from the virus. 

A statement from the White House doctor said both the president and first lady are 'well at this time' but did not say if either have symptoms. 

Hicks, 31, is said to have first felt unwell returning from a rally in Minnesota on the president's plane Wednesday evening. 

She was quarantined away from others on the plane and her diagnosis was confirmed Thursday, according to an administration official. 

If Trump becomes seriously ill, there are constitutional procedures that would allow Vice President Mike Pence to assume power temporarily, just weeks before the November 3 election.

Trump has the coronavirus — here's what happens next - CNBC

Posted: 02 Oct 2020 05:08 PM PDT

LONDON — President Donald Trump on Friday confirmed he and first lady Melania Trump had tested positive for Covid-19, prompting many to seek clarity on the procedures in place to deal with a variety of scenarios.

The president, 74, who is regularly tested for Covid-19, said via Twitter that he and the first lady would now begin their quarantine and recovery process.

The development, which comes late in the run-up to the Nov. 3 presidential election, has raised the possibility that others at the highest levels of U.S. government could have been exposed to the virus in recent days and may need to quarantine as well.

White House physician Dr. Sean Conley said in a letter that the president and first lady were "both well at this time, and they planned to remain at home within the White House during their convalescence."

Conley said the White House medical team would maintain a "vigilant watch," before adding he expected Trump "to continue carrying out his duties without disruption while recovering."

"I will keep you updated on any future developments," Conley said.

What happens now?

In a research note published earlier this year, John Hudak, a senior fellow and deputy director at the Brookings Institution's Center for Effective Public Management, outlined some of the scenarios designed to "protect the president, the integrity of the office, and the continuity of government" in the event of a positive Covid-19 test.

Hudak said the test, in itself, would not be cause for emergency action. Instead, Trump "would likely be able to continue his everyday activities and manage the office either undisturbed or with mild challenges."

It was expected to create some challenges for those around him, however. "The need for 24-hour Secret Service protection could put agents at risk for contracting it. But given modern technology, the president could quarantine and have remote or sufficiently distanced contact from most, if not all, aides, including the individual(s) who would be involved in the presidential daily brief," Hudak said.

Trump's positive coronavirus test does mean other precautions need to be taken, with those in the line of succession likely to be in limited contact with the president to reduce their chances of contracting the virus.

Vice President Mike Pence, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Chuck Grassley (who serves in the role of president pro tempore, making him third in line for the presidency), and members of the cabinet will all need to be isolated from the president, Hudak explained.

The diagnosis will mean it is important for the president "to continue to communicate with the American public, especially if he is mildly symptomatic or asymptomatic," Hudak said. "Seeing the president on camera can restore faith in his wellness, calm nervous Americans, stabilize stock markets and project to the world that the president remains well enough to execute the office."

Trump's response to the coronavirus pandemic has been sharply criticized, although the president frequently hails his own management of the health crisis. At a campaign rally in Ohio late last month, Trump claimed the disease "affects virtually nobody."

To date, the U.S. has recorded more than 7.27 million cases of the coronavirus, with 207,808 related deaths, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.

Could the election be delayed?

Earlier this year, New York University law professor Richard Pildes told the Washington Post that the Republican National Committee would take control should Trump be unable to continue as the Republican nominee ahead of the election.

Pildes said in the event of the death of either Trump or Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, the respective parties would need to replace the name of their candidate on each state's ballot with the name of a new candidate.

However, with millions of votes already cast, others are unsure whether this solution is practical in a contested race.

At this point, "it seems impossible for candidates to come up with a new name to replace a name on the ballot without starting the whole election process over, which is not possible in the 30+ days before election day," Rick Hasen, a law professor at the University of California, said in a blog post published Thursday.

Hasen said he found it "hard to believe" Congress would pass a bill to delay the presidential election, although conceded it was a possibility if one of the presidential candidates were to become incapacitated.

"While things are not certain, what's most likely (is) that the election would take place on time with the deceased or incapacitated candidate's name on the ballot, and then there would be a question if legislatures would allow presidential electors of each state to vote for someone other than the deceased candidate," Hasen said.

Contingencies for a seriously ill president

In testing positive for the coronavirus, Trump follows in the footsteps of U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson, 56, and Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro, 65.

Johnson, in particular, became seriously unwell after testing positive for the virus. The U.K.'s ruling Conservative Party leader spent three nights in intensive care in April, with Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab deputizing for the prime minister at the time.

The Brookings Institution's Hudak said Trump would have access to some of the best and most immediate health care in the world, but "his age and obesity put him into higher risk categories for more serious symptoms" of Covid-19.

"In an unfortunate scenario in which the president were to contract Covid-19 and need therapies such as a ventilator and/or the use of other therapies that would impair his cognitive abilities and/or abilities to communicate, there are a few procedures in place to deal with that situation," Hudak said.

If Trump were to receive therapies that would impair his ability to perform the duties of office, it is possible the president could invoke Section 3 of the 25th Amendment to the Constitution.

This would pave the way for the vice president to become "acting president," until the president notifies the House and Senate that they are able to perform their duties once again.

President Ronald Reagan invoked Section 3 in 1985 and President George W. Bush did so twice in 2002 and 2007.

In the event Trump's condition was to decline rapidly, thus ruling out the possibility of invoking Section 3, Hudak said Section 4 of the 25th Amendment would provide a solution to such a crisis.

In this case, the vice president and a majority of the cabinet would send notice to the House and Senate "that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office." Again, this scenario would see the vice president assume the role of acting president until the president recovers.

"While presidential incapacity would be a serious national situation, the government would be able to function in a largely uninterrupted way until the president is recovered," Hudak said.
