New York Governor Andrew Cuomo announced new measures aiming to mitigate the coronavirus’ spread on Monday morning, as the state joins others across the U.S. seeing cases and hospitalizations rise. Potential restrictions apply to food service establishments statewide, although a majority of regions will still be permitted to offer indoor dining on a very limited basis. “In NYC, indoor dining would close entirely. In the rest of the state, indoor dining would be reduced to 25% capacity,” Cuomo tweeted Monday, as he discussed the state’s updated COVID-19 response during a news conference at which the United States’ top infectious disease expert, Dr....

No, the problem was that the Raiders were unprepared. That’s inexcusable. The Patriots are better, but they’re not “take a 30-0 third-quarter lead” better, or “win 33-8" better, or “Brian Hoyer in garbage time” better.

The AFC West keeps sliding back toward them, yet the Raiders keep sliding back away from the lead....

Pouncey was a candidate to begin the year on the physically unable to perform list, which would have kept him out of the season’s first six games. The Dolphins decided not to go that route, said the person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced any roster decisions publicly. NFL teams had a 4 p.m. Saturday deadline to pare their rosters down to 53 players and the Pouncey decision was among the biggest Miami had to make....

That’s why I click-baited yesterday’s headline with “injured fantasy baseball stars.” They weren’t all “stars” – come on, Brandon Belt? – but “players” or “gents” ain’t gettin’ clicks, and the 6-1 German woman I pay to scream insults at me, Frau Butenstauffer, doesn’t work pro bono (or pro bonerbreichen, as it’s known across the pond).

Vaccine hesitancy has led to only about 27 percent of Bosnia’s population of 3.3 million receiving the shot. But among the approximately 2,000 inmates across the country’s 13 prisons, more than 80 percent are vaccinated. At Bosnia’s largest prison, located in Zenica, over 90 percent of the 600 inmates are vaccinated. Redžo Kahrić, the maximum-security prison’s warden, said he believes the vaccination rates are so high out of convenience. Though vaccinations are not mandatory, inmates are required to quarantine if they come into contact with someone who tested positive for the virus, whereas people outside of prisons are free to ignore the rules....

By the next day, John Markoff, a reporter for The New York Times, had already gotten the hacker’s name: Robert Tappan Morris. Markoff knew no more until a top computer expert for the National Security Agency returned a call.

Katham is one of the lucky ones. After pushing for more than a year he finally received refugee status and settled last month in Seattle, where he and an Iraqi roommate share a small apartment with a couch, a television set and a few action movies strewn on the floor. His success reflects a small shift in policy toward Iraqi refugees. After welcoming just a few hundred in the first few years of the war, the State Department has opened the door to 1,600 Iraqi refugees in the past year....

When we got to France, they sent me to automobile school. I learned to drive trucks, a tank and the Studebakers the officers got driven around in. I did pretty well in training and got a 98 on my test, but they gave the tank job to someone else. I got transferred to the medical corps after an ambulance driver got killed. They figured I’d fit in, since my dad was a doctor....
