Swansea had started their Europa League campaign on a perfect note and St Gallen were all for breaking the former’s stride. However, an early St Gallen penalty saved by Gerhard Tremmel gave Swans the confidence boost they needed and Wayne Routledge netted in from point-blank range in the early minutes of the second half to give Swansea a well-deserved victory. Elsewhere, Fiorentina beat Ukranian side FC Dnipro with a Massimo Ambrosini second-half strike which was enough to edge past the hosts 2-1....

Meanwhile, U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson dispatched medics, deployed the HMS Enterprise and released five million pounds in humanitarian aid. Angela Merkel’s Germany announced it would send a 47-strong rescue team, along with one million euros in immediate aid via the German Red Cross, to establish first aid stations in Beirut and provide medical equipment. These laudatory humanitarian gestures helped those leaders sidestep the elephant in the room—Lebanese Hezbollah and its puppetmasters in Tehran....

Fears over a potential second wave of the outbreak remain following a recent rise in new cases reported in several European countries. Here we look at five European Union (EU) nations that have reported the largest increase in new cases per capita (100,000 people) in the last 14 days from the 14 days prior to that two-week period, according to data compiled by WHO. Three of these five EU nations are reporting community transmission, which indicates they are “experiencing larger outbreaks of local transmission defined through an assessment of factors including, but not limited to: large numbers of cases not linkable to transmission chains; large numbers of cases from sentinel lab surveillance; and/or multiple unrelated clusters in several areas of the country/territory/area,” according to WHO....

But it’s not. The euro did climb briefly above the symbolically important marker of parity with the dollar–and still stands around 20 percent above its historic low. European markets, however, have slavishly followed Wall Street’s tumble. Shares in Frankfurt and London are around 40 percent below their 2000 peak, while French shares have halved in value from their record high. What’s going on here? Some investor skepticism stems from the poor short-term economic outlook for Europe....

Apple’s cool quotient is part of the problem: when the company introduced its iTunes download service in Europe in mid-2004, customers snapped up 800,000 songs in the first week. Apple now owns 70 percent of the local entertainment-download market, and ivory iPod earbuds are as ubiquitous in Soho as they are in, well, Soho. That’s the problem, say a growing number of European consumer advocates. They’re taking aim at the digital-rights-management (DRM) software in iTunes, included at the behest of record labels to stop piracy....

Austria and Netherlands XI occupy the top two spots in the Group B points table of the European Cricket Championship 2021. Both sides have four points, with the former having a better net run rate.

“Honestly, and this is maybe not something I should say, but my gut tells me that the best decision might be to move the team,’’ Longoria told the Tampa Bay Times on Thursday before his new team, the Giants, played in Philadelphia. “I say that only because I look at the example of the Miami Marlins, and (a new stadium) didn’t really solve their attendance issues. So from purely an attendance standpoint, somewhere else might be better....

As Leeds prepare to face Arsenal in the FA Cup third round on Monday, Alioski was asked whether they could announce themselves to the Premier League by beating a team who triumphed over the Red Devils 2-0 on New Year’s Day. The Macedonia international’s response would have been music to the ears of the Leeds faithful, and it came 10 years and a day after the club - then in League One - claimed a famous 1-0 FA Cup victory at Old Trafford....

ESPN boss John Skipper, Connor Schell and producer Erik Rydholm have held exploratory talks with the Emmy-winning star of “Garbage Time” about joining the Worldwide Leader in Sports, according to sources.

One possibility: pairing her with “Mike & Mike in the Morning” co-host Mike Greenberg for a national show that would create an All-Star morning show team — and mark the end of Greenberg’s on-air 17-year partnership with Mike Golic....

But what is a deflationary crypto, how does a crypto become deflationary, and is Ethereum’s new status good or bad news for investors? What Is a Deflationary Crypto? The first thing to note here is that the vast majority of cryptos are somewhat exposed to inflation (aside from flatcoins, such as Nuon). Though cryptos can be designed to hedge against inflation, the higher the circulating supply, the more it is likely to be affected by inflation rates....

The children were among the 8,000 people who tried to enter the EU territory where they could apply for asylum. Morocco has since taken back most of the migrants. The lawmakers said they rejected “Morocco’s use of border control and migration, and unaccompanied minors in particular, as political pressure” against an EU nation. They were outraged that children and families were “putting their lives and safety at clear risk.”...

The European Commission (EC) has recently proposed new regulations that would require chat apps like WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger to comb through flagged users’ private messages for child sexual abuse material (CSAM). “This is an impressively bold and ambitious proposal to systemically prevent avoidable child abuse and grooming which is taking place at record levels,” Andy Burrows, Head of Child Safety Online at the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children (NSPCC), told Lifewire over email....
