Espn Changes Course Decides To Broadcast 2020 Wnba Draft On Main Channel Instead Of Espn2

That is unlikely to take away from the draw of the event. After the cancellation of the NCAA Tournament, it’s a golden chance for women’s basketball to be celebrated. The first-round talent — including consensus projected No. 1 pick Sabrina Ionescu — is phenomenal, and there aren’t other sporting events for the draft to compete with. It is expected to be a landmark occasion for the league. Following an initial announcement Thursday morning that the draft would be relegated to ESPN2, an ESPN official told Sporting News on Thursday afternoon that the network had changed course and would air the event on its main channel with coverage starting at 7 p....

The “Wednesday Night Baseball” broadcast on ESPN exists in an interesting corner of the television universe because, unlike “Sunday Night Baseball,” there is no exclusivity for ESPN.

Espresso Is Linked To Higher Total Cholesterol Levels

Espresso in particular is associated with higher total cholesterol levels, and the association was stronger in men than in women, the study showed. Coffee consumption may raise cholesterol levels in part because the beverage contains the chemicals cafestol and kahweol, which have been linked to higher LDL “bad” cholesterol. French press or plunger coffee has higher contents of these cholesterol-raising compounds than filtered coffee does. Espresso has an intermediate amount of these compounds, but data on espresso intake and cholesterol levels is limited....

Estimated 216K People Left Nyc Metro Amid Covid Pandemic Data Shows

About 216,000 people moved from the New York metro area, but the loss was balanced by births and gains in international migration. The overall population declined by roughly 108,000 residents, or .5%, with these factors included. “I think some core urban counties like Manhattan, San Francisco and others may have taken a bigger brunt of pandemic-related out-movement, as well as lower immigration,” William Frey, a senior fellow at The Brookings Institution, told the Associated Press....

Berihu still doesn’t know what happened to his family after he defected from the Eritrean Army. There are no phone or mail links between the neighbors, and he has had no way of keeping in touch. So today he waits and hopes, one of more than 15,000 Eritreans stuck behind barbed wire and chain-link fencing at the Shimelba refugee camp in a remote corner of northern Ethiopia. It’s a part of the world that is growing increasingly tense as the two countries seem to be gearing up to fight their second war in less than a decade....

Europe Looks For Friends In Sunny Places

Good timing. Concerns about migration, terrorism and access to energy supplies are refocusing EU attention on improving relations with the nations of North Africa, which are emerging from political and economic obscurity. Libya is fast shedding its status as a global pariah, Morocco has recast itself as a Westernized quasi democracy and tourist magnet, and Algeria—now splurging $150 billion on an infrastructure-renewal program—is awash in petrodollars. French President Nicolas Sarkozy, speaking immediately after his election in May, declared: “The time has come to build a ‘Mediterranean Union’ that will be a bridge between Europe and Africa....

Europe S Great Non Debate

In many ways, that suits the main shapers of EU institutions–the French political class. Highly educated and full of a confidence created by its success in transforming postwar France, the French political class has worked for what it calls the “harmonizing” of European policies in one area after another. Its latest agenda is to create common policies in taxation, foreign affairs and defense. These are needed, the French insist, in order to give Europe a political weight that corresponds to its economic weight....

Europe S Past Asia S Future

Albright is certainly guilty as charged. She is a European scholar, both in the sense of her expertise and also of her background (Czech). Her scholarly writings reveal an interest in and familiarity with European history and politics. But surely the job of secretary of state requires no particular specialization. Indeed, it probably helps to have the ability to look beyond whatever particular background one brings to that office. George Marshall was a military man and Dean Acheson a lawyer, but they were impressive secretaries of state because they transcended their professional biases and looked broadly at the world....

Europeans Push Companies To Allow Personal Repairs For Electronics To Cut Down On Waste

Europe generated 35 pounds of electronic waste per capita last year, the U.N. said. Over half of the electronic waste generated by countries in the European Union is large home appliances, and any electronics that don’t end up being recycled are usually dumped in landfills or transported to developing countries. One nonprofit organization, Repair Café Denmark, organizes up to 15 events every week in the country’s libraries and community centers where people can bring their troubled electronics for free repairs from volunteers....

Even Russia S Exaggerated Claims Of Progress Would Be Failure Isw

In a report released Friday night, the U.S.-based think tank said a “Russian information operation” was claiming troops had made significant progress in the city of Bakhmut in eastern Ukraine. The ISW added that it may have reason to be skeptical of the report, given Russia’s false claims of advancement in the past. “Russian forces are likely falsifying claims of advances in the Bakhmut area to portray themselves as making gains in at least one sector amid continuing losses in northeast and southern Ukraine,” read the report....
