In June, the 27-country bloc that includes France, Italy and Germany voted to roll back previous restrictions set by the Union. However, with the U.S. now reporting 588 new COVID-19 cases per 100,000 inhabitants over the past two weeks, according to the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC), the country’s COVID rates stand well above Europe’s 75 new cases per 100,000. “Nonessential travel to the EU from countries or entities not listed…is subject to temporary travel restriction,” the council said in a statement....

This revelation came after Bouchard was dumped out in the first round 7-6 (7-3), 6-4 by world No. 117 Duan Ying-Ying, a match in which Wimbledon officials assessed Bouchard a dress-code violation for wearing a black sports bra — underneath her white sports bra, USA Today reported.

But we may have more to fear from biology than from physics in the hands of barbarians. No human achievement has done more to lessen suffering for a larger number of people than has the conquest of infectious diseases, such as smallpox. And nothing more succinctly sums up the odiousness of our enemies than their contemplated reintroduction of some of these indiscriminate, promiscuous killers into the human story. But as we focus, quite properly, on ways to prevent the use of infectious diseases as instruments of war, we may be paying insufficient attention to a terrifying phenomenon unrelated to terrorism....

Torres has confirmed he will leave Atleti when his contract expires at the end of the season , having struggled for minutes since the January arrival of fellow former Chelsea forward Diego Costa. The 34-year-old helped Chelsea to Champions League and Europa League titles during his time at Stamford Bridge, with MLS and China mooted among his possible future destinations . Atletico are in a strong position to reach the semi-finals of the Europa League, having beaten Sporting CP 2-0 in last week’s first leg thanks to goals from Koke and Antoine Griezmann....

But the Kremlin has overreached. Its arrogance and aggressive posturing have set off global alarm bells. The European Union has begun to respond, taking steps to rein in Russia and sap some of Putin’s swagger. His fortunes began to turn with the May election of French President Nicolas Sarkozy. His predecessor, Jacques Chirac, had made cooperation with Russia a hallmark of his presidency. But Sarkozy signaled a change in that relationship by warmly hosting the president of Ukraine, and raising concerns during a visit to Russia last week about the deterioration of human rights there....

The M4/A4 road that links Heathrow to central London, you discover, is one long traffic jam. After years of neglect, construction delays are growing ever more frequent; at one point–an overpass that’s said to be London’s busiest stretch of road–the highway suddenly narrows from six lanes to four. People use cell phones to turn their cars into mobile offices, Bangkok style. ““Look at some of the main thoroughfares in London, and you can see the future,’’ says Neil Kinnock, transport commissioner for the European Union....

But don’t bank on that rematch just yet, because it looks like there’s at least a feasible third entrant into the discussion: the New York Rangers. It’s funny how drastically things can change when you give them time. The Rangers stumbled out of the gate, going 3-7 (in large part due to that brutally unenviable California road trip), and as a result, people didn’t waste any time in asking whether they’d gotten the short end of the stick in their offseason coach swap with the Vancouver Canucks....

Higuain double downs Monaco The boy he was speaking about was, of course, Kylian Mbappe, whose sensational form for the Ligue 1 leaders over the first months of 2017 has seen him given a price tag of upwards of €100 million. The 18-year-old has been a magician for Monaco since arriving in the first team, shattering records at apparently every turn, but this great Juve side proved a bridge too far for a young man who had netted five times in his previous four knockout games in Europe’s elite competition....

I recently passed two women at a steep outdoor flight of stairs–a busy workout spot in L.A. “It’s only a matter of time before it happens here,” I overheard one say to the other. I’ve been listening a lot these days–though much of the time all I hear is silence. People are quieter now, deep in their own thoughts, their own trepidations. Occasionally, I hear exchanges like the one I mentioned–shared fears, a heavy sense of uncertainty....

Just not without his diploma. MORE: Preseason Top 25 | ACC coach rankings | Bowl Projections As Irish Illustrated captured, the former Notre Dame quarterback took part in the university’s graduation ceremony this weekend. It’s a slow time of year for college football, but many interested parties are watching for Golson’s next move.

Florida State is the presumed leader for Golson’s services — Jameis Winston is off to the NFL and his backup Sean Maguire is the No....

The 28-year-old attacker scored the consolation goal - in the tie they lost 3-1 - and created chances for the former Arsenal winger. However, the former Lokomotiv Moscow player – disappointed not to convert some of the scoring chances that came his way - talked up the opportunity to play in tandem with the England international. “I enjoy playing with Theo, he is fast and always running in behind the defence,” Niasse told club website....

In a memo sent to the league’s media committee and obtained by ESPN, execs Brian Rolapp and Howard Katz wrote, “While our partners, like us, would have liked to see higher ratings, they remain confident in the NFL and unconcerned about a long-term issue.” Through the first four weeks of the season, total viewership is down 11 percent, and there has been a 12 percent drop among the 18-49 demographic....

In a wide-ranging interview about the scandal, hosts Jada Pinkett Smith and mother Adrienne Banfield-Norris discussed white privilege, with Giannulli giving what she called her first-ever interview. On the Red Table Talk, Giannulli stated that she had no idea what her parents were doing on her behalf when they paid $500,000 to get their daughters into the University of Southern California. However, she also apologized for her part in the scandal, saying: “I’m not trying to victimize myself....

The rapper, whose birth name is Sir Robert Bryson Hall II, announced his new partnership with live streaming video network Twitch on Monday. Speaking with The Verge, the 30-year-old said through his exclusive collaboration with Twitch he’ll stream a few hours each week on the site. While music will certainly be a part of what fans get to see from him on the site—he’s expected to release his last LP No Pressure during his first streaming event on Tuesday at 8 p....

Since former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick first knelt during the anthem to protests against racial discrimination and police brutality, Trump has staunchly opposed the demonstrations. The president has repeatedly accused protesters of disrespecting the national anthem and the flag and what began as a social demonstration has developed into one of the most divisive political issues American sports have faced in decades. Here’s a timeline of what Trump has said on the issue of kneeling....

“He would grow up to play in the Super Bowl and realize you never stop fighting for your dreams,” the tweet reads. “She would grow up to tell stories that matter to millions.” Together, Kaepernick and filmmaker Ava DuVernay are responsible for the upcoming series, Colin in Black & White. DuVernay is responsible for the film Selma and Netflix originals 13th and When They See Us. Kaepernick is a former (and perhaps future) NFL quarterback who is considered a leading voice in Black advocacy once he began to kneel during the playing of “The Star Spangled Banner....

McGregor’s eldest daughter Clara McGregor, 25, took to Instagram to make the announcement as she shared two snaps of herself cradling the newborn. “Welcome to the world little brother ❤️ congratulations to my Dad & Mary—this is the greatest gift,” Clara captioned the images, which were posted on Sunday. Clara’s younger sister, Esther McGregor, 19, welcomed the bundle of joy in similar style, when she posted a trio of snaps on the image-sharing platform....
