Updated data from The New York Times showed on Monday that health officials in 20 U.S. states have confirmed rising case counts over the past seven days, with sharp spikes reported in North Carolina, Arizona and California. All three states, like most others in the U.S., have recently begun to reopen. North Carolina saw its highest single-day increase in cases on June 6, with 1,370 new diagnoses confirmed. In a press release, the state’s Department of Health and Human Services said the number of individuals testing positive for the virus increased by 10 percent, while related hospital admission rates exceeded 700 for three of the previous five days....

Plague Inc. studio Ndemic Creations has acknowledged that Plague Inc. sales typically rise whenever there’s a global health concern like the coronavirus. Ndemic Creations has also reported receiving “a lot of questions” about the coronavirus outbreak in China, and has directed those concerned to the World Health Organization.

The Joaquin family, from North Texas, has experienced eight cases of the novel virus—despite having not seen each other since New Year. Jose Joaquin—whose uncle Elpidio Munoz was the first of the family to contract coronavirus—said the relatives had stuck to distancing guidelines and had not seen each other in person since the start of the year. “We hardly ever went out,” Joaquin told Fox26. “We went out for your typical essentials....

In the email, a copy of which was obtained by NEWSWEEK, Novak said he had privately told colleagues in early 2001 of his plans to retire this December after turning 62. “I will continue to serve on the Time Warner Board,” he said, “and I will do all I can, as an outside director, to contribute to the success of the company.” Noting the disappointments of the past few years, Novack added: “I remain a strong believer in the potential of the merger, in the promise of AOL, and in the future of our company....

The faceless YouTuber initially rose to fame thanks to narrating real-life horror stories sent by his viewers. The streamer’s deep, mysterious voice helped him create a sense of mystery behind his narration, becoming an instant hit on the platform. During a recent stream, Corpse Husband was asked by a viewer why he stopped posting horror narration content. In response, the 23-year-old explained that the recording for those stories would often take hours....

Corpse Husband was playing Among Us recently with a variety of internet personalities/streamers. This included Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter, Imane “Pokimane” Anys, Jeremy “DisguisedToast” Wang, and Thomas “Sykkuno.” In the middle of the stream, Corpse Husband began talking about the variety of “clickbait” videos on YouTube posted by channels that generally use his name. While speaking about the matter, Corpse Husband ended up delivering a stern warning to the content creators....

Delhi: While the Indian capital is said to be comprised of at least seven successive cities throughout history, the two most recent manifestations are the most apparent. Old Delhi is a vibrant but sooty conglomeration of streets and bazaars, thronged with people and cycle rickshaws. New Delhi is a colonial pattern of wide, sweeping boulevards and monumental buildings, a master plan designed by the British architect Edwin Lutyens. The most fun to be had is in the old city....

The Alola region from Pokemon Sun and Moon brought a lot of new locations, experiences, and monsters for Pokemon fans to enjoy, and one such creature is the Ghost/Fairy type Mimikyu. The Fairy type was still fairly new to the franchise when Sun and Moon came around, as it had only appeared a generation before in-game, and many people were still figuring how best to incorporate the type into their teams....

Against Italy, La Roja had dominated virtually throughout, but they needed an uncharacteristic howler from Gianluigi Buffon to take the lead at the Juventus Stadium. It was a similar story in this one as Spain finally went ahead following an error from Albania goalkeeper Etrit Berisha in the second half. Prior to that, Spain had been in complete control. Lopetegui fielded an innovative 3-3-3-1 system with Gerard Pique, Sergio Ramos and Nacho Monreal at the back, Koke, Sergio Busquets and Thiago Alcantara ahead of them, with Vitolo, Andres Iniesta and David Silva behind lone striker Diego Costa....

The hosts come into the game on the back of a resounding 3-0 victory over Les Astres in the Cameroon Elite One last month. Lambert Araina was the star of the show with a brace in the victory. JS Kabylie were held to a surprise 1-1 draw by Biskra on home turf in the Algerian Ligue 1. Rezki Hamroune had to score a second-half equalizer after Hichem Mokhtar had put the visitors ahead in the first half....

While it may seem like football’s fairytale land, Cristiano Ronaldo’s potential move to PSG is not all that incomprehensible. Ronaldo’s contract at Juventus runs out in June 2022 just like Kylian Mbappe’s. With both of them yet to sign a new contract, the two superstars might be the most high profile free agents available next season. Kylian Mbappe has long been linked with a move to Real Madrid while PSG are one of the few clubs who could accommodate Cristiano Ronaldo’s wages....

Christie was among the first to endorse Trump when he ran for president in 2016, but the two have since gone from being strong allies to trading jabs. Neither man has committed to making a presidential run in 2024, but Christie has said he felt that Trump may not be the right man for the job and he won’t back down from mounting his own campaign just because the former president decides to throw his hat into the ring....

The example below combines the two functions to calculate the percentage of Yes/No responses in a range of data. The formula used to accomplish this task is: In the example, the COUNTIF function counts the number of times the desired data — the answer Yes — is found in the selected group of cells. COUNTA counts the total number of cells in the same range that contain data, ignoring any blank cells....

YouTube user R. Gravis clipped the incident and uploaded the footage to the video-sharing site, where it has amassed over 500,000 views and upwards of 1,500 dislikes. The stream started out normally enough: MissQGemini (also known as Hayley-Isabel on her other social media profiles) is playing a few rounds of CounterStrike: Global Offensive and interacting with other off-screen gamers. She even gets killed by another player and reacts as anyone would: with frustration and sentence sprinkled with swear words....

President Joe Biden handily won Colorado over former President Donald Trump by a double-digit margin of more than 13 points. But Trump supporters in the western state appear to have been misled by the former president’s baseless claims that the 2020 election was “rigged” or “stolen” by Democrats—leading some to demand audits and recounts. “Some clerks are getting death threats,” Colorado’s Secretary of State Jena Griswold, a Democrat, told The Colorado Sun newspaper for an article published Friday....

Both sides have been eliminated from the race for a spot in the third round after Senegal won Group H last month. There’s still two more games to go, though, and they’ll be looking to end their campaign on a good note. Congo are bottom of the group with only two points, having failed to win any of their qualifying games so far. Moreover, both points that the Red Devils have accumulated have come courtesy of own goals in the 1-1 draws to Namibia and Togo....

The 39-year-old played for Ireland at the 2002 World Cup, and believes that Martin O’Neill’s side can do well at this summer’s European Championship. “I’m really hoping they have a good tournament,” the former Wimbledon striker told the Portsmouth News. “I hope they do well. The longer they stay in it the better it is for the country. The last one, obviously, ended quite early and there was massive disappointment for the fans who went over there....

McGregor on Wednesday was issued a professional boxing license in California, lending credence for the first time to rumors the mixed martial arts fighter is serious about pursuing a fight in another discipline.

The retired then unretired and now apparently very much active McGregor, 27, tweeted Monday, “I am BACK on UFC 200!” MORE: 37 crazy UFC photos that might turn your stomach However, hours after McGregor’s tweet, UFC president Dana White told the Los Angeles Times there was no deal in place for McGregor’s return, going so far as to call the tweet “not true.” “We haven’t talked (to) Conor or his manager since the press conference,” White said, referring to Friday’s official UFC 200 news conference in Las Vegas in which White repeatedly said McGregor wouldn’t appear on the card....
