McKinley<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Packing raking winds, blinding snows and piercing cold, a powerful, fast-moving winter storm roared up the East Coast on Saturday, bringing power outages, disrupted travel and general misery to millions of residents from the Carolinas to Maine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The worst of the storm was felt across the Northeast, particularly in New England, where gusting winds blew snow sideways, while flood-prone coastal areas watched warily as a storm surge pounded beaches and sea walls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Power outages were reported for more than 100,000 Massachusetts residents, and broader blackouts remained an ongoing concern as high winds threatened to snap snow-covered branches and cripple power lines into Saturday evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a classic blizzard,\u201d said Glenn Field, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Norton, Massachusetts, which noted that some areas in the state had received 3-4 inches of snow per hour Saturday morning, according to radar estimates. Heavy snow continued through the afternoon, with wind gusts of more than 70 mph in some locations, creating whiteout conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Indeed, the tempest\u2019s intensity and drifting snow made even measuring the accumulation difficult, although the storm was shaping up to be the biggest of the season in some regions, and maybe one of the biggest in decades. Field said up to 30 inches of snow was possible in coastal areas, potentially smashing a 2003 record for Boston of more than 27 inches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The wicked weather may have also claimed more than one life. In Nassau County, east of New York City, police were investigating the death of an elderly woman found dead inside her car at around 2:45 a.m., with at least one of the car\u2019s windows open. And in Toms River, New Jersey, a man went into cardiac arrest and died while operating a snowblower, according to Ocean County Sheriff Michael Mastronardy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The intense storm was characterized as a \u201cbomb cyclone,\u201d in which barometric pressure drops rapidly over 24 hours, producing high winds. As storms such as this one move over coastal waters, they pick up moisture, resulting in heavy snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The storm\u2019s speed and ferocity, predicted for days, were being felt up and down the Interstate 95 corridor. There was significant snowfall in Southern cities such as Asheville, North Carolina, and bitter cold was predicted overnight in locales such as Charleston, South Carolina, part of a Southern cold snap.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>\u97f3\u58f0\u306f\u3053\u3061\u3089<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/271761\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"21\">2\/1(\u706b)\u306e\u653e\u9001\u306e\u82f1\u6587\u8a18\u4e8b\u3068\u82f1\u5358\u8a9e\uff1a\u6839\u6027\u3001\u9069\u5207\u306a\u3001\u8ecc\u9053\u4fee\u6b63\u3059\u308b<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Rafael Nadal Wins the Australian Open, His 21st Grand Slam Title<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>fitting  \u9069\u5207\u306a\u3001\u3075\u3055\u308f\u3057\u3044 <br>count \u2026\u3068\u601d\u3046\u3001\u307f\u306a\u3059 <br>utterly  \u307e\u3063\u305f\u304f\u3001\u3059\u3063\u304b\u308a <br>awash in \uff5e \uff5e\u3067\u3042\u3075\u308c\u3066\u3001\u3069\u3063\u3077\u308a\u3064\u304b\u3063\u3066 <br>grit \u6839\u6027\u3001\u30ac\u30c3\u30c4 <br>Spaniard  \u30b9\u30da\u30a4\u30f3\u4eba <br>pry something from\uff5e \uff5e\u304b\u3089\u5f15\u304d\u96e2\u3059 <br>correct course \u8ecc\u9053\u4fee\u6b63\u3092\u3059\u308b<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aChristopher Clarey<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>MELBOURNE, Australia \u2014 For an aging champion who has earned his reputation as one of the greatest competitors in sports, it was a fitting way to stand alone with 21 Grand Slam men\u2019s singles titles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Down, two sets to none, in the Australian Open final, against the higher ranked and considerably younger Daniil Medvedev, Rafael Nadal did not simply count himself fortunate to have made it so far in a tournament he once considered himself unlikely to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, he did what he has done since he burst onto the tennis scene nearly 20 years ago as a long-haired teenager in pirate pants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He fought. He thought. He fought and thought some more, and his prize was his most unexpected major title and a victory, 2-6, 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-4, 7-5, that was utterly suitable for archiving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a match awash in long rallies, momentum shifts, dazzling winners on the run and break points saved and converted. It started Sunday evening in Melbourne and ended after 1 in the morning Monday. It was 5 hours, 24 minutes of true grit, and it broke Nadal\u2019s tie with his greatest rivals, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic, who are now tied for second on the men\u2019s career list with 20 Grand Slam singles titles each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor me, it\u2019s just amazing,\u201d Nadal said. \u201cBeing honest, one month and a half ago, I did not know if I will be able to be back on the tour playing tennis again, and today I am here in front of all of you having this trophy with me. You really don\u2019t know how much I fought to be here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nadal, a Spaniard seeded sixth here, has proved many times that he does not beat himself. He just won\u2019t. You need to pry a match and trophy from his hands, point by point, game by game, set by set. Second-seeded Medvedev, despite all his power and skills, could not manage it, losing his way midway through the third set and never quite figuring out how to correct course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nadal has now won all four of the major tournaments at least twice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>\u97f3\u58f0\u306f\u3053\u3061\u3089<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/272046\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"22\">2\/2(\u6c34)\u306e\u653e\u9001\u306e\u82f1\u6587\u8a18\u4e8b\u3068\u82f1\u5358\u8a9e\uff1a\u76f8\u6bba\u3059\u308b\u3001\u767a\u96fb\u6240\u3001\u50b7\u3064\u304d\u3084\u3059\u3044<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Biden Administration to Reinstate Mercury Pollution Rules Weakened Under Trump<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>reinstate \u5fa9\u5e30\u3055\u305b\u308b\u3001(~\u3092)\u5143\u306b\u623b\u3059 <br>power plant \u767a\u96fb\u6240 <br>EPA (\u7c73\u56fd\u306e)\u74b0\u5883\u4fdd\u8b77\u5c40 <br>emission (\u5149\u3084\u71b1\u306a\u3069\u306e)\u653e\u5c04\u3001(\u7159\u7a81\u3084\u8eca\u306e\u30a8\u30f3\u30b8\u30f3\u306a\u3069\u304b\u3089\u306e)\u6392\u6c17\u3001\u6392\u51fa <br>outweighed \u301c\u3088\u308a\u307e\u3055\u308b\u3001\u3088\u308a\u91cd\u3044 <br>offset \u76f8\u6bba\u3059\u308b\u3001\u57cb\u3081\u5408\u308f\u305b\u308b <br>vulnerable \u50b7\u3064\u304d\u3084\u3059\u3044\u3001\u5f31\u307f\u306e\u3042\u308b<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aCoral Davenport<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>WASHINGTON \u2014 The Biden administration Monday reinstated a way of measuring the benefits of reducing air pollution, the first step in a plan that could tighten limits on the amount of mercury that can be discharged from coal-burning power plants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mercury is a neurotoxin that poses a particular danger to the brain development of children and fetuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mercury announcement is among several recent actions taken or planned by the Biden administration that are aimed at reducing pollution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In many cases, the Biden administration is restoring environmental regulations that had been weakened by President Donald Trump before it lays the groundwork for even stronger rules to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The EPA has limited mercury emissions from coal plants since 2012. But during the Trump administration, the agency concluded that the rule\u2019s cost to industry outweighed its benefits and therefore it was no longer \u201cappropriate and necessary.\u201d That finding allowed the Trump administration to stop enforcing the mercury limit, even though it remained on the books.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Biden administration is now proposing to return to an Obama-era method of calculating the impact of regulation in a way that considers collateral benefits, such as reducing fine particulate matter and smog, when estimating the gains expected from lower mercury emissions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Using that method would enable the EPA to conclude that the costs of the rule to industry is offset by public health benefits such as prevention of disease and premature deaths. That would provide the legal justification to enforce the existing mercury regulations. The EPA will open the proposal for a 60-day comment period and is expected to finalize the policy later this year.

This month, a group of more than 200 professors and public health officials called on Spotify to crack down on COVID-19 misinformation on its platform, and pointed to a recent episode of Rogan\u2019s podcast featuring Dr. Robert Malone, an infectious-disease expert, that included \u201cseveral falsehoods about COVID-19 vaccines,\u201d according to the experts\u2019 letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Last week, Young and Mitchell cited those complaints when removing their music from Spotify, sparking debate throughout the music industry about what role artists can have in deciding where their music is heard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ek said that Spotify would add a \u201ccontent advisory\u201d notice to any podcast episode that includes a discussion about the coronavirus, directing listeners to a \u201cCOVID-19 hub\u201d with facts and information. That hub includes links to health authorities like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, as well as podcasts from news sources like the BBC, CNN and ABC News.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ek also wrote that for the first time, the service is publishing its platform rules, which address dangerous, deceptive, sensitive and illegal content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Wednesday, when Spotify began removing Young\u2019s music, the company said that it has \u201cremoved over 20,000 podcast episodes related to COVID since the start of the pandemic.\u201d Rogan\u2019s episode with Malone remains available on Spotify.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>\u97f3\u58f0\u306f\u3053\u3061\u3089<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/272863\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"24\">2\/4(\u91d1)\u306e\u653e\u9001\u306e\u82f1\u6587\u8a18\u4e8b\u3068\u82f1\u5358\u8a9e\uff1a\u6253\u6483\u3001\u6c88\u3080\u3001\u4f4e\u4e0b\u3059\u308b<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Meta Spent $10 Billion on the Metaverse in 2021, Dragging Down Profit<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Drag down \u5f15\u304d\u305a\u308a\u4e0b\u308d\u3059 <br>All in \u30aa\u30fc\u30eb\u30a4\u30f3\u3001\u5168\u3066\u3092\u639b\u3051\u308b <br>Buffet \u6253\u6483 <br>Plunge \u6c88\u3080 <br>Subside \u4f4e\u4e0b\u3059\u308b<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aMike Isaac<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mark Zuckerberg said his company was going all in on the metaverse last year. On Wednesday, he showed the costs of making that transition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meta, the company that Zuckerberg founded as Facebook, said that its Reality Labs division, which makes virtual reality goggles, smart glasses and other yet-to-be-released products, lost more than $10 billion in 2021 as it built the business. Those products are key to Zuckerberg\u2019s vision of the metaverse, a next generation of the internet where people would share virtual worlds and experiences across different software and hardware platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was the first time that Meta revealed the results of its hardware division. In the past, the company had not broken out those numbers because products like virtual reality headsets were a small part of its overall business, which is dependent on social networking and digital advertising. Investing $10 billion in the metaverse is more than five times the amount of money Facebook paid to purchase the Oculus VR business in 2014 and 10 times what it paid to buy Instagram in 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The spending dragged down Meta\u2019s quarterly profits, which fell 8% to $10.3 billion in the three months ended in December from a year earlier, even as revenue rose 20% to $33.7 billion over the same period. Wall Street analysts had predicted profit of $10.9 billion on revenue of $33.4 billion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, Meta said its social networking businesses \u2014 such as Facebook and Instagram \u2014 were being buffeted by another shift made by a rival tech giant. Meta said it expected its financial performance to be hurt by Apple\u2019s changes to its mobile operating system, in which the iPhone maker made it more difficult last year for apps to track iPhone users\u2019 digital habits. The move has given social networking companies less data to use for serving people targeted ads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The higher spending on the metaverse and the effect of Apple\u2019s changes have combined to create a difficult transition period for Facebook as it transforms into Meta. On Wednesday, Meta\u2019s shares plunged about 22% in after-hours trading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meta\u2019s spending is unlikely to subside anytime soon, especially as it is in a full-throttled race against other technology giants to claim ground in the theoretical metaverse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>\u97f3\u58f0\u306f\u3053\u3061\u3089<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/273917\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<h2><span id=\"25\">2\/5(\u571f)\u306e\u653e\u9001\u306e\u82f1\u6587\u8a18\u4e8b\u3068\u82f1\u5358\u8a9e\uff1a\u4ee3\u5f01\u8005\u3001\u6a5f\u5bc6\u6027\u3001\u5206\u89e3\u3059\u308b<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h5>Rotterdam May Dismantle Part of Bridge for Jeff Bezos\u2019 Superyacht<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p>Dismantle \u5206\u89e3\u3059\u308b\u3001\u53d6\u308a\u58ca\u3059\u3001&#8230;\uff08\u3092\uff09\u53d6\u308a\u9664\u304f <br>Surperyacht \u30b9\u30fc\u30d1\u30fc\u30e8\u30c3\u30c8 <br>Walked back \u5ba3\u8a00\u3092\u64a4\u56de\u3059\u308b\u3001\uff08\u884c\u52d5\u3084\u661f\u306a\u3069\u3092\uff09\u5143\u306b\u623b\u3059 <br>Briefly \u7c21\u5358\u306b\u3001\u624b\u77ed\u306b\u3001\u66ab\u304f\u3001\u4e00\u6642\u7684\u306b <br>Temporarily \u4eee\u306b\u3001\u4e00\u6642\u306b\u3001\u9593\u306b\u5408\u308f\u305b\u306b <br>Spokesperson \u4ee3\u5f01\u8005\u3001\u4ee3\u8868\u8005 <br>Confidentiality \u6a5f\u5bc6\u6027\u3001\u79d8\u5bc6\u6027\u3001\u4fe1\u4efb\u306e\u539a\u3044\u3053\u3068<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>\u8457\u8005\uff1aJenny Gross<br>(c) 2021 The New York Times Company<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dutch city of Rotterdam on Thursday walked back plans to dismantle part of the historic Koningshaven Bridge so that a superyacht built for Amazon\u2019s founder, Jeff Bezos, could pass through the city\u2019s river, saying that a decision had not yet been made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week, city officials had told the news media that Rotterdam had agreed to briefly dismantle the middle section of the 95-year-old bridge for the yacht\u2019s passage this summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Thursday evening, officials said in another statement that the city had not yet approved the plan, although it had received a request from the shipbuilder to temporarily lift the middle part of the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The city\u2019s statement said the full cost of the dismantling, if approved, would be covered by the shipbuilder. The bridge, known locally as \u201cDe Hef,\u201d would be restored immediately afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A city spokesperson had said that she did not have an estimate of how much the deconstruction would cost. The city statement said that officials would assess the environmental and economic effects of the plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A representative for Amazon did not respond to requests for comment about the cost or the yacht\u2019s destination. A spokesperson for Oceanco, the Dutch custom yacht company that is building the boat, said in an email that she could not comment on projects under construction or clients because of confidentiality reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boat International, which publishes articles about the superyacht industry, reported that the 417-foot sailboat is set to become the largest sailing yacht in the world when it is finished later this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The superyacht that Bezos commissioned is likely to cost more than $500 million to build, Bloomberg reported. Bezos is the world\u2019s second-richest person, after Tesla\u2019s CEO, Elon Musk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bridge, which has a boat clearance of 130 feet, is not currently in use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dennis Tak, a Labor Party city councilor for Rotterdam, said he was fine with the bridge being dismantled \u2014 since the city would not be paying for it \u2014 because of the jobs the process would create. \u201cAs a city, this is a great way to take some of his money,\u201d Tak said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>\u97f3\u58f0\u306f\u3053\u3061\u3089<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/embed\/channel\/1111\/274461\" width=\"100%\" height=\"385\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"overflow:hidden\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>\u300c<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/voicy.jp\/channel\/1111\" target=\"_blank\">Voicy News Brief with articles from New York Times<\/a>\u300d\u306f\u6bce\u671d6\u664230\u5206\u306bVoicy\u3067\u66f4\u65b0\u4e2d\uff01\u3044\u3064\u3067\u3082\u7121\u6599\u3067\u8074\u3051\u308bVoicy\u306e\u82f1\u8a9e\u30c1\u30e3\u30f3\u30cd\u30eb\u3092\u6d3b\u7528\u3057\u3066\u3001\u82f1\u8a9e\u529b\u5411\u4e0a\u306b\u304a\u5f79\u7acb\u3066\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\u3002<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u97f3\u58f0\u30d7\u30e9\u30c3\u30c8\u30d5\u30a9\u30fc\u30e0\u300cVoicy\u300d\u3067\u6bce\u671d6\u664230\u5206\u306b\u66f4\u65b0\u4e2d\u306e\u82f1\u8a9e\u30cb\u30e5\u30fc\u30b9\u30c1\u30e3\u30f3\u30cd\u30eb\u300cVoicy News Brief with articles from New York Times\u300d\u3002\u3053\u306e\u30c1\u30e3\u30f3\u30cd\u30eb\u3067\u306f\u3001The New York Times\u306e\u8a18\u4e8b\u3092\u30d0\u30a4\u30ea\u30f3\u30ac\u30eb\u306e\u30d1\u30fc\u30bd\u30ca\u30ea\u30c6\u30a3\u304c\u82f1\u8a9e\u3067\u8aad\u307f\u4e0a\u3052\u3001\u8a18\u4e8b\u3068\u82f1\u5358\u8a9e\u3092\u65e5\u672c\u8a9e\u3067\u89e3\u8aac\u3057\u3066\u3044\u307e\u3059\u3002\u82f1\u8a9e\u306e\u30cb\u30e5\u30fc\u30b9\u3092\u6bce\u671d\u8074\u3044\u3066\u3001\u30ea\u30b9\u30cb\u30f3\u30b0\u529b\u306e\u5411\u4e0a\u3068\u82f1\u8a9e\u5b66\u7fd2\u306b\u304a\u5f79\u7acb\u3066\u304f\u3060\u3055\u3044\u3002 \u3053\u306eVoicy Journ&#8230;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":15537,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":""},"categories":[261],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15521"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15521"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15521\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15550,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15521\/revisions\/15550"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/15537"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15521"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15521"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.voicy.jp\/journal\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15521"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
