Conte left his position as Italy coach to become Jose Mourinho’s permanent successor at Stamford Bridge in July. The Italian has adjusted well to life in the Premier League with Chelsea just one point off the top of the table in fourth having won seven of its 10 matches. Conte revealed that wealthy owner Abramovich traveled on Chelsea’s preseason tour of Austria and is also a regular at the club’s Cobham training ground, but the former Juventus coach welcomes the Russian’s attendance....

The irony is that much of that drama and import had in effect come to depend precisely on all the staging and scripting we find objectionable.

The Panthers quarterback welcomed his son Chosen to the world the day before Christmas and Newton’s been representing for his mini-me ever since.

The team at The Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity grew the virus in cell culture after taking a sample from a patient who attended the Royal Melbourne Hospital’s Victorian Infectious Diseases Reference Laboratory on Friday. Australia is among the countries where the virus has been confirmed in patients. It is thought to have originated from the central Chinese city of Wuhan, Hubei Province, late last year. According to an online dashboard run by Johns Hopkins University, a total of 132 people have died—all in mainland China and mainly in Hubei—and 6,057 cases have been confirmed worldwide....

While our interventions have saved millions of jobs and businesses, we can’t save every job or every business....

Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union and The Sentencing Project have been calling on officials to release elderly and at-risk prisoners—at least those who do not pose a risk to the general public—nationwide in preparation for the anticipated coronavirus stress on the prison system. Overcrowded facilities with relatively poor sanitary conditions offer perfect environments for coronavirus to spread. As more people come down with the virus, prison staff levels—both guards and medical workers—are likely to be stretched further and conditions could deteriorate....

The games are scheduled to be held in Tokyo between July 24 and August 9 but their fate appears increasingly in doubt as the world battles to contain the virus.

In countries like Qatar and the United Arab Emirates, low-paid workers—whether working in construction, retail, domestic roles or elsewhere—are the most at risk as coronavirus spreads through the region. Though the number of cases has been relatively low compared with other nations, the toll is fast rising. Working conditions for migrant employees in these countries—particularly in the construction industry—have long been a cause for concern among human rights organizations. Now, these vulnerable workers are working without adequate protection or being quarantined in cramped and unsanitary living conditions, with limited access to food and medical supplies, according to several watchdogs who spoke to Newsweek....

Research led by University College London (UCL) found that “school closure, as an isolated measure, was predicted to reduce total deaths by only around 2-4 percent during a COVID-19 outbreak in the UK.” Initially, it was expected that schools were unlikely to reopen before the summer holidays in July. But this has led to Cabinet ministers to argue that schools should be opened as soon after the Easter holidays as possible....

The signal, known as a fast radio burst (FRB), was detected by researchers using the Canadian Hydrogen Intensity Mapping Experiment (CHIME) radio telescope in December 2019. First discovered in 2007, FRBs are a relatively new phenomenon. As their name suggests, FRBs are intense radio emissions that typically last for just a fraction of a second, flaring up in some deep part of the cosmos before blinking out of sight again....

Costa arrived at the Allianz Arena from Shakhtar Donetsk in 2015 and feels his 18-month settling-in period will allow him to produce his best form. Robben: Bayern a step down from Real After an impressive maiden campaign, Costa made a slow start to 2016-17, his cause not helped by muscular problems. However, the Brazil international began to make more of an impact prior to the mid-season break, scoring in a 5-0 rout of Wolfsburg before netting a stunning winner against Darmstadt in the following game....
