Trump's pick for Treasury Secretary will soften his stance on tariffs, analyst says
Dylan So looks like a typical student, which placed him well for his role as Ming in Papa : an otherwise quiet high-schooler, but one who hears voices telling him climate change and environmental hazards are caused by overpopulation, and people have to die to make the world better, leading him to murder his mother and sister. Despite having zero acting experience before Papa , So’s subtle yet fearless performance is already being tipped for a Hong Kong Film Awards nomination. “The daughter of my mother’s friend had been working with director Philip Yung for a while,” says So, 18. “One evening when we were having dinner together, she asked if I would be interested in auditioning for Papa . I took the chance and got the role. I was a Form Five student back then. I did not intentionally imitate how a mentally ill patient or murderer might look or act, I just played the role of a son. I was going through puberty, like the character, and I applied my attitude towards my parents in real life to the role, as I believe the character was hearing voices in his head, which were not meant to be expressed explicitly.” So’s interactions with Lau in the film are so convincing they feel like exchanges between a real father and son. When asked if his attitude towards his own father changed after the film, So replies that while he thinks it is important to talk and communicate, when “my father saw the film, I did not ask him whether he liked it. We just looked at each other without saying anything”. Currently majoring in English at the Education University of Hong Kong, So hopes to find a job that allows him to “learn and broaden my horizons through meeting different people”. “I may work as a teacher or social worker after graduation. I will consider acting, too,” he says. “Acting is interesting since I can experience other people’s lives through the characters. I just want to explore, and I won’t set a limit to what kind of characters I play.”

Doug Pederson spoke to the media this week about the injury status of Trevor Lawrence and what the team accomplished in the bye week. On QB Trevor Lawrence’s status this week Doug: Trevor's going to practice today and then we'll see where he's at from there. On what he learned about the team during the bye week Doug: We took a dive into that schematically just to see where we were and see what we're doing and see what we do well. There are some things that, I'm not going to get into the whole details of things, but there are things in the run game that we’ve got to get back to. Even in the passing game, tweaking some things there and some things that we can hopefully help our production in the next six weeks, and then ultimately just have some time away. As I said last week, we needed some rest and get refreshed and see where these next six weeks go.By MIKE CATALINI CHATHAM, N.J. (AP) — That buzzing coming out of New Jersey? It’s unclear if it’s drones or something else, but for sure the nighttime sightings are producing tons of talk, a raft of conspiracy theories and craned necks looking skyward. Cropping up on local news and social media sites around Thanksgiving, the saga of the drones reported over New Jersey has reached incredible heights. This week seems to have begun a new, higher-profile chapter: Lawmakers are demanding (but so far not getting) explanations from federal and state authorities about what’s behind them. Gov. Phil Murphy wrote to President Joe Biden asking for answers. New Jersey’s new senator, Andy Kim, spent Thursday night on a drone hunt in rural northern New Jersey, and posted about it on X. But perhaps the most fantastic development is the dizzying proliferation of conspiracies — none of which has been confirmed or suggested by federal and state officials who say they’re looking into what’s happening. It has become shorthand to refer to the flying machines as drones, but there are questions about whether what people are seeing are unmanned aircraft or something else. Some theorize the drones came from an Iranian mothership. Others think they are the Secret Service making sure President-elect Donald Trump’s Bedminster property is secure. Others worry about China. The deep state. And on. In the face of uncertainty, people have done what they do in 2024: Create a social media group. The Facebook page, New Jersey Mystery Drones — let’s solve it , has nearly 44,000 members, up from 39,000 late Thursday. People are posting their photo and video sightings, and the online commenters take it from there. One video shows a whitish light flying in a darkened sky, and one commenter concludes it’s otherworldly. “Straight up orbs,” the person says. Others weigh in to say it’s a plane or maybe a satellite. Another group called for hunting the drones literally, shooting them down like turkeys. (Do not shoot at anything in the sky, experts warn.) Trisha Bushey, 48, of Lebanon Township, New Jersey, lives near Round Valley Reservoir where there have been numerous sightings. She said she first posted photos online last month wondering what the objects were and became convinced they were drones when she saw how they moved and when her son showed her on a flight tracking site that no planes were around. Now she’s glued to the Mystery Drones page, she said. “I find myself — instead of Christmas shopping or cleaning my house — checking it,” she said. She doesn’t buy what the governor said, that the drones aren’t a risk to public safety. Murphy told Biden on Friday that residents need answers. The federal Homeland Security Department and FBI also said in a joint statement they have no evidence that the sightings pose “a national security or public safety threat or have a foreign nexus.” “How can you say it’s not posing a threat if you don’t know what it is?” she said. “I think that’s why so many people are uneasy.” Then there’s the notion that people could misunderstand what they’re seeing. William Austin is the president of Warren County Community College, which has a drone technology degree program, and is coincidentally located in one of the sighting hotspots. Austin says he has looked at videos of purported drones and that airplanes are being misidentified as drones. He cited an optical effect called parallax, which is the apparent shift of an object when viewed from different perspectives. Austin encouraged people to download flight and drone tracker apps so they can better understand what they’re looking at. Nonetheless, people continue to come up with their own theories. “It represents the United States of America in 2024,” Austin said. “We’ve lost trust in our institutions, and we need it.” Federal officials echo Austin’s view that many of the sightings are piloted aircraft such as planes and helicopters being mistaken for drones, according to lawmakers and Murphy. That’s not really convincing for many, though, who are homing in on the sightings beyond just New Jersey and the East Coast, where others have reported seeing the objects. For Seph Divine, 34, another member of the drone hunting group who lives in Eugene, Oregon, it feels as if it’s up to citizen sleuths to solve the mystery. He said he tries to be a voice of reason, encouraging people to fact check their information, while also asking probing questions. “My main goal is I don’t want people to be caught up in the hysteria and I also want people to not just ignore it at the same time,” he said. “Whether or not it’s foreign military or some secret access program or something otherworldly, whatever it is, all I’m saying is it’s alarming that this is happening so suddenly and so consistently for hours at a time,” he added. Associated Press reporter Hallie Golden in Seattle contributed to this report.
