Moon, 53, was scheduled to get his first vaccine shot on Monday, Fox 4 reported. He first caught COVID-19 in January, and then again on July 14. Reportedly, his second and final bout with the virus was the more virulent Delta variant, which is causing cases all over the U.S. to surge. By July 20, Moon’s wife, Linda, said that “he could not really breathe.” She promptly took him to the Baylor Scott & White Medical Center in Sunnyvale, Texas, where he received treatment until his death....

The former Duke guard was the first player to be dismissed in Mike Krzyzewski’s 35 seasons as Blue Devils coach. MORE: Way early Top 25 | Other players dismissed during 2014-15 season | Duke’s secret weapon Krzyzewski said Sulaimon failed to “consistently live up to the standards required to be a member of our program.” Sulaimon was accused by the Duke student newspaper of two incidents of sexual assault, claims he denies and for which he wasn’t charged....

Bernard Kerik—who was convicted of a range of offenses including tax fraud, but was pardoned by Trump last month—wrote on Twitter Sunday that concerns over the spread of coronavirus had turned into “hysteria” which he claimed had been “created to destabilize the country, and destroy the unparalleled and historic economic successes” of the Trump administration. His remarks were quickly condemned by a variety of users, among them Democratic California Rep....

MORE: Three Raiders will donate brains | Researcher calls Goodell a liar Additionally, the study published this month in the American Journal of Sports Medicine found that the group of 3,439 retired players was significantly less likely than the population to die from cancer, heart disease and homicide. The study’s conclusion offers a caveat: “Clearly, our one study does not resolve the issue of suicide in football. Before reliable conclusions can be drawn on any relationship among football play, concussion, CTE, and suicide, more work needs to be done in several areas: (1) quantitatively assessing football-related risk factors, particularly in collecting valid concussion data; (2) collecting longitudinal non–football related suicide risk factor data, including the existence and prevalence of recurring pain among current and retired players; and (3) analysis of how the higher income and socioeconomic profile of professional football players compared to the general population positively or negatively affects suicide risk....

Ghosn, who was ousted as the chairman of Nissan and Renault amid the charges, was required to stay in Japan pending his trial and had been subject to home confinement, although it is unclear which detention conditions were still in effect at the time of his escape. The paramilitary group reportedly entered Ghosn’s home and, after waiting for a period of time equivalent to a private concert, exited with Ghosn stowed inside the instrument case, the news organization reported....

Video footage of the slaughter showed 1,428 white-sided dolphins being gruesomely killed on the central Faroe island of Eysturoy in the North Atlantic archipelago. The count was much higher than in recent years and the footage suggested that the hunters may not have adhered to guidelines meant to ease the suffering of the animals. “It was a complete disaster, completely unprecedented in fact, it could even be the largest single hunt of cetaceans in documented history anywhere in the world,” said Robert Read, campaign director for the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society....

In a Saturday appearance on Fox News, Giuliani urged Trump’s impeachment defense team to approach the Supreme Court and argue that the ongoing proceedings against the president are unconstitutional. Giuliani’s suggestion comes less than two weeks after he told reporters at Trump’s Florida resort Mar-A-Lago on New Year’s Eve that he wanted to be involved in the Senate impeachment trial. “I would testify, I would do demonstrations, I would give lectures, I would give summations,” the attorney said....

The governor’s race in Virginia is being closely watched by Republicans and Democrats, as they view the election as a key indicator of how voters could cast their ballots in the 2022 midterms. Recent polls suggest the margin is close between the two candidates, with some showing Republican Glenn Youngkin in the lead while others show McAuliffe narrowly ahead. In an opinion article for Business Insider, Matt Walton, who ran as a Republican for the Virginia House of Delegates in 2015, voiced his support for McAuliffe while slamming Youngkin....

I’d join Arsenal for six Cornish pasties, jokes Shaw The 23-stone shot-stopper courted controversy on Monday when he was spotted eating a pie on the bench during the club’s FA Cup tie against Arsenal. After he confirmed he knew about a bookmaker offering odds on that occurrence, it emerged that both the FA and Gambling Commission would launch an investigation into his conduct, prompting the 46-year-old to resign from the non-league outfit....

The Australian model shared her experience with the show on TikTok on June 27, and had gained over 2 million views from the clip. Captioning it, “too little, too late Victoria’s Secret,” she shared how underweight she was for the show. “I found my bra from the 2016 Victoria’s Secret fashion show. It is a size 30A, I am now a size 34B which is healthy for me,” she wrote as she tried the bra on, showing how small it is for her body....

“I never served with her, unfortunately,” said former Congresswoman Elizabeth Holtzman to MSNBC, when asked to comment about Speaker Pelosi. “She is a strong-minded woman, very experienced, savvy and as she said don’t mess with her. And they will at their peril. She will not be bamboozled into a fake, fraudulent trial.” “Here we have the leader of the Senate, Mitch McConnell saying ‘I’m not an impartial juror.’ You have to take [an] oath in the Senate impeachment trial saying you are going to do impartial to make sure the Senate trial is fair, nonpartisan and tries do impartial justice,” she continued....

According to a statement from U.S. Attorney for Massachusetts Nathaniel R. Mendell, 51-year-old Sheehan pleaded guilty on July 20 to three counts of sexual exploitation of children. The Associated Press reported that Sheehan’s victims were between the ages of 11 and 12. The case was a part of Project Safe Childhood, a U.S. Justice Department initiative launched in 2006 with the aim to combat child exploitation and abuse. Sheehan’s actions came to light in June 2018 when one of his victims came forward....

According to data from the Defense Department, 2,120 men and women in uniform have tested positive for the COVID-19 virus. The U.S. Navy has the highest number of cases, followed by the Army, Air Force and the Marine Corps. Civilians working for the department are the second largest overall group after those in uniform; the next hardest-hit groups are military dependents, and private contractors at military facilities. The Pentagon’s secrecy around these numbers, intended to keep fears about health and readiness under control, has instead increased suspicion and sparked controversy....

“A lot of the countries are watching this very closely,” Kushner says. “They are going to see how it is responded to. The younger generation [in the region] is very excited about it. Some members of the older generation still have nostalgia for a different time, and don’t want to take any risks. But the reality is, most of these countries want to advance their economies, and they realize that by holding themselves back they are playing into Iran’s hands and Iran’s desire for a fractured and chaotic Middle East....

A Saudi spokesman strongly denied that any embassy funds were used to support terrorism and said Bandar chose to pull the embassy’s accounts out of Riggs. The Saudis point out that an earlier FBI probe into embassy funds that were moved to alleged associates of the 9/11 hijackers has not led to any charges. The current probe, by the FBI and Treasury Department, is one of the most sensitive financial inquiries now being conducted by the government and is being closely monitored by the White House....

Goals from Tokelo Rantie and Percy Tau were all Stuart Baxter’s men needed to silence Nigeria at the Godswill Akpabio Stadium, Uyo – a result that could have big implications in the race for 2019 Africa Cup of Nations. Though hurt about the three-time African champions losing their invincibility to Bafana Bafana, the 28-year-old whose brace rescued the team from defeat in 2014 is trusting the Eagles can make adjustments from the frustrations of their performance against the 1996 African champions....

At the end of November 2016 it was one of the darkest in Datuk Ong Kim Swee’s career as a coach after missing out on the knock-out stage of the AFF Suzuki Cup. Although there were mitigating circumstances for the deficiencies in the team, the team still failed to perform at their level expected of them. Eight months later, Ong in a new role with the Malaysia Under-22 squad sprang a surprise with a wonderful achievement of being one of the top 16 teams in Asia in that particular age group as he guided the team to the AFC U23 Championship finals....

A U.S. Army forensic team, hastily airlifted to the site, unearthed 23 bodies, from which it took “samples” before reburying them. Mystery No. 1: what samples? The story at the time (repeated last week by a spokesman at the U.S. military HQ in Afghanistan) was that these were tissue samples, bound for the U.S. Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, where DNA would be extracted to identify the dead. Previous samples from Afghanistan had been sent there in February....

But Somalia’s troubles are far from over. Instead of warlords now, Somalis have what many are calling an African version of the Taliban, bent not only on imposing a harsh, Wahhabi-style Islam on the country but allegedly also providing a safe haven, Afghan style, for international terrorists. Movies and music have been banned; open-air video parlors showing World Cup matches were shut down. Recently the group appointed a Majlis al-Shura (consultative council) as its supreme spiritual and policy-setting body, appointing as its leader Sheik Hassan Dahir Aweys, who is on the U....
