Sorry, the Hamilton Movie Won’t Be Eligible at Next Year’s Oscars – Vulture

The Disney+ version of Hamilton will not be invited into the room where it happens. Photo: Disney+ Could a filmed stage play, years removed from Broadway, start to stream the weekend of Independence Day, take advantage of a movie calendar in disarray, and find itself a surprise Oscar player anyway? With the Academy changing its rules to allow streaming-only projects to compete at next year’s Oscars, a fascinating question has emerged: Does the Hamilton movie, the filmed version of a 2016 Broadway performance currently streaming on Disney+, now have a shot at Oscar glory? At first glance, the wording seems wide enough for the musical to snea...

Is the coronavirus airborne? Hundreds of scientists say its “a real risk” – CBS News

There is "a real risk" that the coronavirus can be airborne, meaning it can spread through microscopic particles that linger in the air, an open letter supported by 239 scientists says. The scientists are urging the World Health Organization and other public health organizations to amend their guidelines to reflect this risk. "Hand washing and social distancing are appropriate, but in our view, insufficient to provide protection from virus-carrying respiratory microdroplets released into the air by infected people," states the letter, entitled "It is Time to Address Airborne Transmission of COVID-19." The WHO has said the coronavirus is only confirmed to be airborne during aerosol-generating medical procedures performed in health care settings, such as intubation. It says the virus...

NYT wonders: Say, maybe cheering the BLM protests has undermined epidemiologists’ COVID-19 credibility – Hot Air

The deuce you say! This flash from the Paper of Record only surprises to the extent that the New York Times covered this issue at all. “Are protests unsafe?” their headline asks, and then adds, “What experts say may depend on who’s protesting what.” We’ve noticed, we’ve noticed: So when conservative anti-lockdown protesters gathered on state capitol steps in places like Columbus, Ohio and Lansing, Mich., in April and May, epidemiologists scolded them and forecast surging infections. When Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia relaxed restrictions on businesses in late April as testing lagged and infections rose, the talk in public health circles was of that state’s embrace of human sacrifice. And then the brutal killing of George Floyd by police in Minneapolis on May 25 changed everything. Soon the...

Talking Heads Drummer Chris Frantz on His New Memoir and the Last Time He Saw David Byrne – Rolling Stone

Before Talking Heads and Tom Tom Club drummer Chris Frantz started writing his new memoir, Remain in Love (out July 21st), he had to figure out one very important thing. “I kept thinking to myself, ‘What’s the tone going to be?'” he tells Rolling Stone. “The last thing I wanted tone-wise was for it to be a book by a whiny drummer beating up on the lead singer. That’s not me and I just didn’t want to be like that.” He has quite a few reasons to beat up on the lead singer. Talking Heads frontman David Byrne took the band off the road right at its commercial peak in 1984, broke it up seven years later, and has refused all offers to reunite in the intervening years, with the sole exception of a three-song set at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction in 2002. Frantz and Byrne haven’...
