Like title rivals Napoli and Juventus, Inter have won all four of their opening Serie A games this season going into Tuesday’s away clash with Bologna. Inter 9/1 to win Serie A Icardi has netted five times already, following on from last season, when he scored 24 times in the top flight. Spalletti acknowledged Inter need their stars like Icardi, fellow forward Ivan Perisic and goalkeeper Samir Handanovic, but insisted it is overall team performances that can make them successful, while urging the skipper to kick on....

The playoffs, famously, are a crapshoot, but there is a trend with the A's that speaks volumes to their constant disappointment. The six starters that they faced in winner-take-all games were Andy Pettitte, Roger Clemens, Brad Radke, Pedro Martinez, Justin Verlander and Justin Verlander. The A's knocked out Pettitte and Clemens early, but could not capitalize because neither Gil Heredia nor Mark Mulder lasted long in those 2000 and 2001 games, either....

Many people are wondering how long the current recession—which some believe is a depression—will last. When will a recovery begin? As with so much else about this time we’re living through, this is a new challenge. Previous recent recessions don’t provide a complete guide. The COVID-19 pandemic has ushered in the fastest, most sweeping behavioral changes in modern history. Suddenly, it seems there’s a new set of rules for just about everything....

Balotelli – without a cap since 2014 – has scored five goals in four appearances for Ligue 1 side Nice since leaving Liverpool on a free transfer. But despite many believing that his sparkling form would earn him a recall, the former Manchester City, Inter and AC Milan forward, who went off at halftime in Nice’s Europa League clash with Krasnodar on Thursday through illness, has not made the cut....

It all started earlier this week, when the Brownback campaign got wind of a letter that Iowa Rev. Tim Rude, a prominent evangelical pastor and Huckabee supporter, sent to a few other church leaders in the state. In it, Rude talked up Huckabee for being a Southern Baptist and trashed Brownback for being a Catholic. “Frankly, as a recovering Catholic myself, that is all I need to know about his discernment compared to (Huckabee’s),” Rude wrote....

In the past month, extraordinary measures restricting everyday life have been instituted across the world. In many cases this has been by the best-intentioned leaders trying to get to grips with an unprecedented crisis and public support for them is generally very high. But regardless of where or by whom, all of these measures are problematic. Groups such as the International Center for Not-for-Profit Law (ICNL) are already monitoring where emergency powers are in force and where they could be being misused....

Koestenbaum, who teaches English at Yale, calls himself “a neat, fussy homosexual: you know the type”-and an “opera queen.” “A love for opera,” he writes, “is a nostalgic emotion and gay people are imagined to be a uniquely and tragically nostalgic population-regressive, committed to dust and souvenirs.” In “The Queen’s Throat,” he adopts the tricky strategy of embracing such stereotypes, identifying with divas and reveling in their “canned” facial expressions representing put-on emotions....

No wars? No news? No problem. We still have invasions today. Of media hordes, tracking Tiger Woods endorsements. We still have a military. Its primary purpose in the 1990s seems to be to serve as a theater of war between the sexes. Strategy is what gets executed in court and on TV. Espionage is the Globe supermarket tabloid setting up Frank Gifford at a New York hotel. The front is a Marv Albert press conference....

In the clip shared on YouTube, the president fumbles with the papers while showing himself data surrounding the pandemic. “Take a look at these charts,” Trump 1 says. “Numerous categories were lower than the world.” Trump 2 cuts in to offer an explanation for the testing in the United States. “You can test too much, you do know that?” Trump 1 insists. “New cases, new cases, new cases…the top one!...

That prospect terrifies many Israelis. Last Thursday’s suicide bombing seemed to portend a frightening new turn in the violence that has killed 133 Palestinians and eight Israeli Jews since late September. It followed several days of uneasy calm across the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which some attributed to rain and cold temperatures–and others to exhaustion. On Friday street battles flared up again, and four Palestinians were shot dead by Israeli troops....

As of June 30, the American Automobile Association reported that the average price for gas sat at nearly $4.857 per gallon across the nation, leading some members of Congress to blame the Biden administration’s “war on American energy” and restrictive policies for oil companies. But climate activists and progressives argue against the call to increase domestic production of oil, saying that doing so could undermine the president’s climate-focused agenda and calls for transition to cleaner energy....

The attorneys representing George Floyd’s family on Monday announced details of an independent autopsy, with third-party pathologists finding that the knees to his back and neck caused Floyd’s May 25 death. Even though there was “no harm to his trachea,” Floyd attorney Benjamin Crump said, the pressure placed on his body by all of the officers—and not just Derek Chauvin—caused Floyd’s death. The independent autopsy was requested after Floyd’s family rejected the preliminary findings of the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s office last week....
