Month: December 2022

A nivel extradeportivo no me gusta lo que este Mundial destila. Un eventodeportivo que se ha convertido en un evento reivindicativo. Día tras día quedareflejado que no era el lugar más apropiado para celebrar un Mundial con todolo que ello representa. Una vez más se demuestra que el fútbol trasciende aldeporte y se aprovecha para lanzar reivindicaciones sociales. Los grandeseventos no sólo sirven para que una selección salga ganadora, también se tratade transmitir todos los valores ejemplares que el deporte representa, yresulta que nos llevamos nuestro mejor escaparate a Qatar, donde no serespetan un buen puñado de derechos humanos. Estamos viendo como seleccionesque habitualmente portan el brazalete con el lema OneLove en cualquiera desus partidos llegan aquí y están obligadas a quitárselo si no quieren sersancionadas, y todo con la complicidad de FIFA. Puedo asegurar que sercapitana es un orgullo, por eso debe ser, como mínimo, incómodo no poderidentificarte cien por cien con un símbolo tan especial. No paro de ver cosasinadmisibles, que me produce rabia. Ha sido una elección bastante desacertada.

Del brazalete al aficionado. Como futbolista me gusta sentir a mi gente en lagrada, involucrándose igual que quienes estamos dentro. Mirar a la grada yreconcer a tu familia, tus amigos o seguidores, que se dejan la voz para dartefuerzas en un despeje, un sprint o una entrada decisiva. Al acabar el partido,sea cual sea el resultado, equipo y afición se unen para celebrar o llorar. Eneste caso han sido muy pocos los atrevidos o afortunados que han podidoviajar. Vemos que la mayoría de los fans son locales que se identifican conalguna selección, incluso hemos comprobado como los aficionados se iban delestadio al descanso o mucho antes del final por falta de interés. Será algocultural porque hacen lo mismo en el cine.

And lo deportivo, es habitual que haya sorpresas en la phase de grupos.Australia es la cara de una moneda en la que México ha puesto la cruz, tal ycomo vimos la manera por la que pasó Polonia: dejando a México fuera por ungol de diferencia. A veces poco importa el nombre de la selección ni laposición que ocupen en el ranking FIFA. Todas se juegan la vida en un Mundial,las humildes por dar la sorpresa, las potentes por evitar el fracaso. Asimilarlas derrotas es parte del juego, aunque no guste y sea duro. Siempre hay unanueva oportunidad de entrenar y volver a jugar para mejorar tu versión. Peorson las lesiones que te dejan fuera del Mundial. Para eso los jugadores noestamos preparados. Es el caso de futbolistas como Benzema, Mané o másrecientemente Neymar, quienesademás de jugadorazos son piezas clave en susequipos también a nivel mental. Son figuras en las que todo el mundo confía,independientemente del partido que estén haciendo, y pueden marcar lamentalidad de un equipo en el campo. En el momento que una pieza tanimportante se cae, el equipo se desestabiliza, incluso pudiendo crear un vacíoque tarde días en reconstruirse. Normalmente hay que cambiar mates del plan departido, y readaptar el juego a los nuevos futbolistas y sus características.

Cada persona recuerda los Mundiales por algo especial: un gol, una jugada, unpartido, una eliminatoria, algo que ocurre fuera del campo, etc. Este Mundial,separate de las cosas habituales, está repleto de otras tantas, muchas no tanbuenas. Lo que está claro es que este Mundial no va a dejar indiferente anadie para bien y para mal.

Fred Gibson: He’s got a name for being in a rock band, and as a co-writer ofGeorge Ezra’s ‘Shotgun’ he kind of did, but still it’s with synthesizers andunder the pseudonym of Fred Again. seduces. In a year and a half he hasalready released three albums, and then he also scored three hits with singlesthat are not on those albums: ‘Strong’ with Romy from The XX, ‘Turn on thelights again’ with Swedish House Mafia and ‘ Marea (We lost dancing)’ withherself. That song, which was released during the miserable quarantine time,perfectly captured the zeitgeist and set it on the way to the major festivals(Rock Werchter will follow next summer) and halls in the post-corona era.

His concert in the AB was sold out long in advance and no less than 7,312people were still looking for a ticket on Ticketswap. In other words, theevening was already like this hot like a dogs and then the concert had yetto begin. I don’t know if anyone had a thermometer with them, but I wouldn’trule out the mercury blasting out of the glass like a bullet from a cannon.

• Fred Again..: the dance floor ‘s new poster boy

But let’s start at the beginning. From backstage he had himself filmed and theimages projected on stage. Once he appeared in person, he was then filmed inthe audience by hundreds of phones, while his cameraman (who worked with aniPhone) filmed the audience. Welcome to the visual culture of 2022. And ohyes: the press photographers were not allowed access to the room.

Together with an extra keyboard player he stood on stage, he on the right, hiscompanion on the left and the projection screen in the middle. All guestsingers were projected onto it, so that they were absent but still feltpresent. Sometimes he also projected his binding texts there.

The duo started quietly, but by the fourth song (‘Kammy (Like I do)’) the seaof ​​people was just as enthusiastic as the supporters who were a hundredmeters away celebrating Morocco’s qualification. Fire arrows were not fired,Fred Again.. took care of that himself with his songs that cracked like thewhip of a ringmaster. Soon he also crossed the hall to continue playing behindthe mixing desk. He willingly allowed himself to be hugged and touched on hisjourney, as if to make amends for what he so regretted with ‘Marea’: ‘ We’velost the hugs with friends and people that we loved’.

  He played part of the set among the audience.    Photo: fvo

During concerts, Fred Again.. makes his music partly live by hammering on asample pad to create rhythms. At those moments, his show is somewhatreminiscent of Marc Rebillet. House, jungle, tribal, grime, electro and evensoul: Fred Again.. put it all through the blender and suppose he had come tothe edge of the stage with cookies, the audience would have eaten them rightout of his hand – even if they had fallen to the ground first. The peoplebumped and clashed and protested and suddenly and yes, I know those verbsdon’t exist, but you know what I mean: the atmosphere was one to catch in abox and take home.

High Jump Championship

Halfway through the show, technical problems slowed things down a bit, but assoon as Fred Again.. started again, the floor turned into lava. Or was a highjump championship? And when he also asked to make as much light as possiblewith telephones, the room became a swarm of raised bare arms. It looked like ascene from Spencer Tunick – it was completely unclear that everyone was stillwearing their clothes.

The final half hour was nothing short of fantastic, including ‘Angie (I’vebeen lost)’ and ‘Delilah (Pull me out of this)’, often flying back and forthbetween danceable and melancholic. When ‘Marea’ finally came and the audiencewent completely loco, I started to cry with emotion at the sight of so manyhappy, exuberant, relieved, enthusiastic people. The closing song wastraditionally “Billie (Loving arms)” and we left the room with hundreds ofpeople still waiting long after the music had stopped. ‘ Put your loving armsaround me’ kept singing. This concert was not only hot, but also warmlyhuman. And if Fred Again.. hadn’t put two periods after his name to make itclear that a point is really a point, I would have asked him to start all overagain. And again and again and again..

Fred Again.., seen in the AB in Brussels on 1/12.

Semifinalista en 2010, octavos en 2014 y cuartos en 2018, el duelo contra laGhana de Iñaki Williams no admite grises en el bando charrúa. Necesita ganar yque Corea del Sur no venza a Portugal por una diferencia de goles que superela suya. Los africanos, con tres puntos, también se la juegan. Incluso unempate les podría valer. El choque,además, ofrece cuitas pasadas entre ambos.En los cuartos de 2010, Uruguay eliminó a su rival en los penaltis con unfinal para rebobinar: Suárez despejó con las manos sobre la raya un golcantando en el último minuto de la prórroga con 1-1, se quedó sin semifinal,pero Asamoah Gyan la estampó en el larguero desde los 11 metros. La mismadistancia desde la que unos minutos más tarde terminó de morir su equipo en latanda decisiva. Un drama nacional que este jueves no dejó de recordarse. “Yono tengo que pedir perdón por aquello. Yo no fallé el penalti”, zanjó eluruguayo, apremiado más por el presente que por el pasado.

Visto el devenir del encuentro, nadie hubiera invertido en el desenlace. Deinicio, no fingio Japón. Sin camuflaje, su única intención era jugar a queEspaña no jugara; que solo trasteara con la pelota. Hasta un 83% de posesiónle concedió el equipo nipón en el primer periodo. Un dominio abrumador, perono categorico.

Con Japón encapotada con un 5-4-1 y la retaguardia muy adelantada, el recintodel estadio Khalifa quedó tan ceñido que por el medio campo no corría el aire.No había forma de ventilar la trinchera asiática, ni con las alas de Dani Olmoy Nico Williams.

No es fácil ajustar el fútbol cuando el adversario te fuerza a un duelo debalonmano, al juego horizontal. Sin desmarques de los volantes y atornilladoslos extremos, el equipo de Luis Enrique resultaba demasiado retórico enalgunas phases. El duelo exigía temple y perseverancia, y ambas cosas tuvoEspaña. Pero también requería intrepidez, la osadía propia de una seleccióncon 25,3 años de media (28,7 la japonesa). Pero un Mundial puede resultardemasiado solemne hasta para el más descarado. El partido,además de unapaciencia infinita, reclamaba el ojo de Gavi y Pedri. De una mesa redonda delos dos cadetes con Busquets, su tutor.

Tras un par de amagos de Morata, tras dar muchas, muchas vueltas al juego, laRoja cantó gol con un cabezazo de su ariete a centro de Azpilicueta. Por unavez, la zaga nipona estaba de merienda. Morata, con 30 goles, convertido en elquinto máximo goleador español tras Villa (59), Raúl (44), Torres (38) y Silva(35). And stage finals de Eurocopas y Mundiales solo Villa ha sido másproductivo (13 del asturiano por nueve de Morata y Torres).

El gol aún no alteró a Japón, tan refugiada en las cuerdas como al principio.Por entonces, en el rancho de Unai Simón los sobresaltos, no muchos, eranasunto español. Vetada cualquier brusquedad con la pelota llegan lossoponcios. Algunas llamaradas por una tenaza rival sobre Busquets, por lacachaza de Unai…

Nada hacía prever el volantazo del segundo periodo, de no ser por la ventoleraque sufrió Alemania en su fallido estreno con los asiáticos. De repente, endos minutos, en Doha se desató un equipo torrencial para España. De lacontemplativa Japón a una Japón en estampida hacia la meta de Unai. And unchasquido, la Roja en la lona. Doan, recien llegado por Kubo, clavó un golazode zurda tras un quite a Balde. Doan, otra vez Doan, puso la directa, desaliñóa la zaga española y Tanaka dio la puntilla. Un gol por un milímetro, lo queverificó el VAR al constatar que la pelota no había salido por la línea de

“En el fútbol no hay caminos fáciles”, dijo el preparador Gijones sobre lasegunda plaza que evita un hipotético cruce en cuartos con Brasil; “haymerecimientos, y hoy no estoy nada contento. Nos hemos clasificado, pero yoquería ser primero y haber ganado este partido”, se lamentaba Luis Enrique,inflamado cada vez que recordaba el desconcierto de España en el segundotiempo. Japón ha tenido cinco minutos, nos han hecho dos goles y en diez noshan desarbolado. Si hubieran necesitado dos goles más también nos los hubieranmetido”. El preparador Gijonés solo parecía calmar su fuego interno con elanálisis de la primera parte. “Empezamos con el control del partido y con ungol rápido. Luego defendimos con el balón, nos sufrimos y tratamos de cerrarel partido, pero no pudo ser”, volvía a lamentarse el técnico español antes dedar su diagnóstico de la entrada en barrena del equipo en el inicio delsegundo tiempo.

Hemos entrado en modo colapso. Este es un deporte inexplicable y ahora explicaque has dominado durante 80 minutos, y que has perdido”, comentó. Al técnicoespañol pareció irritarle sobremanera el vuelco que le dio Japón al choqueporque había avisado a sus futbolistas. “En el descanso les dije queestuvieran atentos porque ellos se iban a venir arriba porque estabaneliminados, pero entramos en modo colapso y repito, no tengo nada quecelebrar”, abundó.

And medio de la vorágine japonesa, Luis Enrique ni siquiera fue consciente delos tres minutos en los que España estuvo eliminada porque Costa Rica se pusoen ventaja (2-1) ante Alemania. “¿Como que eliminados, tres minutoseliminados, por qué? ¿Hemos estado eliminados en algún momento?”, lepreguntaba Luis Enrique asombrado al director de comunicación de lafederación, Pablo García Cuervo. O no se enteró porque estaba en la parte dela zona técnica más alejada del banquillo, donde los suplentes gritaban a losque estaban jugando que Costa Rica iba ganando. “No me había enterado, esodemuestra que mi discurso es sincero, no íbamos a especular. Eso sí, menos malque el colapso se da una vez cada cuatro años, porque si no, al nene [por él]le da un infarto”.

No pareció estar muy de acuerdo Luis Enrique con la concesión del segundo gola Japón. “He visto una fotografía, pero debe estar manipulada”, ironizó, comosi no diera crédito a que la pelota no hubiera rebasado por completo la líneade fondo. La jugada va a traer cola porque no se reprodujo en tresdimensionses en los videomarcadores y la prensa alemana cuestionaba latecnología aplicada.

“Han sido 10-12 minutos que estábamos fuera, una sensación de agobio tremenda.Tenemos otra oportunidad y tenemos que ir con todo”, resoplaba Pedri en lazona mixta. “El partido de Alemania lo iban poniendo en el marcador. Nosenteramos que estábamos fuera, así que nos pusimos a animar a los compañerospara intentar meter un gol. No ha llegado, pero hemos tenido la suerte de queha ganado Alemania”, prosiguió el volante azulgrana. “Nos ha faltado ritmo debalón, moverlo rápido”, se quejó Pedri, que defendió que España no especularapara ser segunda de grupo, como finalmente ha sido: “No mirábamos los cruces,solo ganar todos los partidos y salir reforzados de la phase the group”.

Getting Tom Cruise’s famous holiday gift cake is such a celebration that his_Top Gun: Maverick_ co-star Glen Powell throws a party when it arrives.

Yes, the celebrity-hyped and Yahoo taste-tasted white chocolate coconut bundtcake — made by Doan’s Bakery in Woodland Hills, Calif., and shipped toCruise’s VIP list — is back as a talking point for the stars as the holidayseason commences. Powell, a breakout star from the blockbuster movie, was aguest on Wednesday’s Jennifer Hudson Show and endorsed the culinaryconcoction as “the most delicious cake you’ve ever had.”

“Tom Cruise has this amazing tradition every holiday — he sends the ‘TomCruise Cake,'” Powell, 34, explained. “The ‘Cruise Cake’ is a very famousthing. If you worked with Tom Cruise or [have] done a Tom Cruise movie, youget this Tom Cruise cake. Over the course of time, it’s turned into thisglobal operation where every Christmas he’ll send out I don’t know how many —it could be thousands [of cakes]…”

As for his review, “It is the most delicious cake you’ve ever had,” the> Austin, Texas, native said. “My friends who have tried it, they love it so> much that they hit me up right around December 1. ‘Hey, has it arrived yet?’> So now I have a party at my house where I’ll have the Cruise cake. It’s my> ‘Cruise Cake Party.’ And I’ll invite people over to try a bite or two.”

Hudson was curious, asking, “It’s a party for the cake?” Powell replied yes,but added that there is only one cake so guests “can’t get greedy. I reallyhave to limit people. I can’t let them come back for seconds.” He said it’s”demolished” by the end of the night. Hudson, who isn’t yet on the listapparently, asked Powell to send her a piece, clearly intrigued by the wholething.

Celebrities have been raving about this cake for years. Rosie O’Donnell hasposted photos of it on Instagram. Kirsten Dunst has said she invites herfamily over to devour it. Jimmy Fallon called it “unbelievable,” Henry Cavillcalled it “decadent” while Renée Zellweger, Angela Bassett, James Corden,Cobie Smulders and Graham Norton have also all raved about it. Barbara Waltersand The View co-hosts once ate it on air. Last year, there was a report thatCruise, 60, shipped 300 of the coconut cakes from the LA bakery to London for_Mission: Impossible_ crew members.

Story continues

Cruise — who was introduced to the cake by then-wife Katie Holmes who learnedabout it from Diane Keaton (it’s a good story) — said in 2018 that he sendsthe cakes to everyone “and I wait for the calls,” from recipients contactinghim to say how good it is.

Yahoo previously spoke to Eric Doan, who runs the small, family-owned bakerystarted by his 80-year-old mother Karen, for the scoop on the cake, which acoconut bundt cake base with sweet white chocolate chunks, layers of cheesefrosting and toasted coconut flakes. He was casually discussing the celebrity-touted treat, saying, “It’s just a unique cake that we dreamed up 25 yearsago.” Though he did add that it’s “made with a lot of love.”

Each year, Cruise’s Odin Productions company places a huge order. Doan getsboxes from Cruise’s team and when the cakes are ready they are taken to asecondary location where they are spruced up extra special with pretty holidaywrapping for Cruise’s gift list. Cruise’s team then ships them to his VIPsaround the world.

Rosie O ‘Donnell has shared photos of cake box, grandly decorated by Cruise’steam and flowed around the globe:

“There were years they kept us in business,” Doan said of Cruise’s annualorder.

On the bakery website, you’d have no idea that they are the home of the Cruisecake — it’s merely listed as White Chocolate Coconut Cake on the cake page.However, they do ship through GoldBelly, which has been known to drop Cruise’sname in promoting the cake. If you want to have the experience but save somemoney, a Yahoo writer also came up with a DIY Cruise cake option.

Powell worked with Cruise in megahit Top Gun: Maverick, which came out inMay and became one of the highest-grossing film ever at the domestic boxoffice. Fellow star Miles Teller has said Cruise reached out to him about apossible Top Gun 3.

Harrison Ford

admin/ “View allposts by admin”)

Looks like Harrison Ford has a date with destiny… the Dial of Destiny, to beprecise. The first trailer for the fifth — and final — Indiana Jonesadventure, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny just dropped, and based onthis action-packed teaser, it doesn’t look like incoming director, JamesMangold, nuked the fridge. Due in theaters on June 30, the film features the80-year-old Ford back once again picking up his alter ego’s trademark fedoraand whip for a farewell that’s gonna feature a few familiar faces and places.(Watch the trailer above.)

First off, it’s worth noting the two familiar faces who aren’t in this firstpeek at The Dial of Destiny : Indy’s wife, Marion Ravenwood (Karen Allen),and their son, Mutt (Shia LaBeouf), who both played big roles in the divisivefourth installment, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Thatmovie proved to be director Steven Spielberg’s farewell to the franchise hecreated with George Lucas, as the filmmaker opted to make The Fablemans_instead of returning for one last _Last Crusade. (Spielberg and Lucas areboth executive producers on the fifth film.)

But one face that is back is Indy’s younger face: Ford recently revealed inan interview with Empire magazine that he was given the de-aging treatmentfor a flashback sequence that takes place in 1944, eight years removed fromthe events of the franchise-launching, industry-changing Raiders of the LostArk. Mangold doesn’t keep the actor’s newly youthful appearance under wraps,including footage from that sequence that apparently sets up the movie’scentral plot.

The rest of the story plays out in the then-present day of the late ’60s, whenIndy is living and teaching in New York City, long removed from finding lostmystical objects and punching Nazis in the face. Enter his old friend, Sallah(John Rhys-Davies) who tries to coax him back into the game. “Those days havecome and gone,” Dr. Jones insists. “Perhaps,” Sallah responds with maximumportent. “Perhaps not.”

Story continues

While we don’t learn what the “Dial of Destiny” is in this first glimpse, wedo see some of the other people searching for it — including ex-Nazi aerospaceenthusiast, Voller (Mads Mikkelsen), his gun-toting sidekick, Klaber (BoydHolbrook), and Helena (Phoebe Waller-Bridge) who appears to have a personalconnection to Indiana. “I’m her godfather,” he tells a curious crook, whileHelena offers an unenthusiastic “He’s partly related” remark.

Mangold has prior experience helming the final adventures of popular heroes.In 2017, he oversaw Hugh Jackman’s final outing as Wolverine in the fanfavorite Logan — although the actor recently picked up the claws again touse on frenemy Ryan Reynolds in dead pool 3. But Ford seems well and trulydone with Indiana Jones, shutting down discussion of another sequel… or areboot.

“Don’t you get it? I’m Indiana Jones,” Ford remarked on Today in 2019. “WhenI’m gone, he’s gone. It’s easy.” Lucasfilm head, Kathleen Kennedy, echoed thatsentiment when she spoke with Yahoo Entertainment at Star Wars Celebration inMay. “His energy is amazing, he is the Bionic Man,” Kennedy enthused. “I mean,Harrison in real life, and as Indiana Jones. He’s just remarkable. We had anabsolute blast. And he worked almost every day of the shoot. It wasremarkable.”

On Twitter, Indy fans are willing to believe that age ain’t nothing but anumber if Mangold delivers the action goods as this trailer suggests.

Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny premieres June 30, 2023.

When you think of Fleetwood Mac, you think of Stevie Nicks. But singerChristine McVie was also of great importance to the group. She passed away onWednesday at the age of 79. McVie was more than the band’s singer, she wasalso the mastermind behind some of their biggest hits.

Born Christine Ann Perfect, Christine McVie knew she was creative from a youngage. She played the piano for the first time at the age of four, but did notstart taking lessons until the age of eleven.

Although she never completely gave up making music, she took a different pathafter high school. She trained as a sculptor at the Moseley School of Art,hoping to become an art teacher.

But the musical heart kept pumping and McVie surrounded herself with artists.Two close friends, Stan Webb and Andy Silvester, asked her to sing in the bandSounds of Blue. Although that band broke up and McVie was forced to work in adepartment store, the members eventually found each other again. Together theystarted Chicken Shack, where McVie was a backing singer and played the piano.

The band signed with record label Blue Horizon, which also included the1967-established band Fleetwood Mac. While touring, the two bands regularlymet and played together. On Fleetwood Mac’s second album, mr. Wonderful(1968), McVie can already be heard as a pianist. Later she also sang in thebackground and made the cover for the album Kill House.

McVie is shown to have a talent for writing

She only became a real part of the band after she married bassist John McViein 1970. Peter Green, who started Fleetwood Mac, had just left the band andthe remaining members hoped to fill some of that gap with Christine McVie. Themusician has always been a big fan of the band and knew the repertoire well.

McVie quickly became an important part of the band. Not only as a pianist, butalso as a singer. And she turned out to have a talent for writing songs. Forthe album Bare Trees (1972) she wrote Save Me a Little of Your Love a songthat became an important part of the band’s performances.

Still, her early years at Fleetwood Mac were not easy. Band members came andwent – that period was not called the transition period of the group fornothing. In 1974 the band moved to the United States, where Stevie Nicks andLindsey Buckingham joined the group. It was not really quiet after that,because McVie had an affair with the light director of the band. That led toher divorce from John McVie.

That affair provided the song You Make Loving Fun op, one of the hits on thestill immensely popular album Rumors state. Also the numbers Don ‘t Stop_and _Songbird both by McVie’s hand, are considered classics.

Difficult relationships and solo albums

Although the atmosphere did not improve, the band continued to tour and newmusic was made. Still, the double album did Tusk not half as good as hoped.After a short break, Fleetwood released Mac in 1982 Mirage out, for whichMcVie co-wrote the song Hold Me. Her troubled love affair with Beach Boysdrummer Dennis Wilson was the inspiration.
