Renard resigned as coach of Morocco after three and a half years in charge following their last-16 exit at the Africa Cup of Nations. Now, the 50-year-old Frenchman – who led Zambia (2012) and Ivory Coast (2015) to AFCON glory – has joined Asian powerhouse Saudi Arabia. Renard wrote via Twitter: “Happy to start a new adventure in Saudi Arabia on a new continent!” Saudi Arabia were searching for a new coach after Juan Antonio Pizzi stood down following the country’s Asian Cup campaign in January – The Green Falcons eliminated in the round of 16....

MORE: Coaches behaving badly “My dad used to always say ‘The grass is always greener on top of the septic tank,’” you said. “So it always looks better someplace else. So you think, instead of facing your fears and really overcoming adversity and making yourself better through the competition, you go someplace else thinking it will be better there. But until you face your fears, you’re always going to have some of those issues or problems....

Having served every president since Ronald Reagan, Fauci’s been the expert opinion during the new coronavirus pandemic. A data-driven and science focused mind, Fauci’s comments and outlook on the situation have, at times, put him at odds with the messaging and opinions put forth by the administration. One such time was on Tuesday, when Alexander, a senior adviser to Michael Caputo, the Health and Human Services assistant secretary for public affairs, asked Fauci’s press team to strongly advise him to not recommend children wear masks in school, according to an email obtained by Politico....

The newly discovered galaxy is about 12.5 billion years old. It was found by researchers from the U.S. and Australia using the Atacama Large Millimeter Array (ALMA) telescope in Chile. This telescope is designed to look at the first stars and galaxies in the universe and is able to look at light between radio and infrared—which is emitted by most objects in the universe. Unlike other telescopes, ALMA’s view of this light is not obscured by the dust that normally obscures it....

Photographer Jacobus Rentmeester sued Nike after it used an image he took of Jordan in the 1980s as inspiration for a photograph it commissioned for its own ads. The company’s photo, which was used on posters and billboards, then became the basis for the “Jumpman” logo for Nike’s Air Jordan shoes. Rentmeester sued Beaverton, Oregon-based Nike in 2015 saying both the Nike photo and logo infringed on his copyright image....

It will also cover when to seek medical attention, as well as how glycosuria is diagnosed and treated.

High on Life definitely suffers from this issue, but Squanch Games does something that shakes up the monotony a bit. While the goo-covered aliens are still faceless grunts, their colorful dialogue gives them a bit more life. They will often spew a joke regarding their fate or say some sly comment before the player unloads into them, and that gives them a bit of personality. It is very similar to what Halo did with its Grunts, and it can lead to some pretty funny moments....

Grubb, of Minerva High School, finished 10th overall in Saturday’s race with a time of 17:26.05 and helped lead his team to victory. The Cambridge police officers said that no foul play is suspected, and Grubb’s death is considered a tragic accident. The incident occurred on a walking trail across from the school campus where there is a footbridge that crosses a creek, according to a Repository report. Captain Dave Peoples of the Cambridge police said four Minerva runners, one of which was Grubb, had a tradition that involved throwing a log into the creek....

The influx of incidents has prompted Whitsundays’ Volunteer Marine Rescue (VRM) service to stress the importance of wearing a protective suit while swimming in local waters. The aquatic assailants are believed to be the highly venomous Irukandji jellyfish, a species so toxic that it even has a cluster of symptoms named after it: “Irukandji syndrome.” On average, Irukandji cause anywhere from 50 to 100 hospitalizations every year, according to Barrier Reef Australia....

Much like in the comics and other adaptations that feature the character, Black Cat has a very playful relationship with the wall crawler in Marvel’s Spider-Man. The flirty and feisty thief will often switch between helping Peter Parker and causing trouble throughout New York City that he has to fix, and she does just that in Marvel’s Spider-Man. While she does not meet with Peter face to face in the main game, as she instead leaves him collectibles to find, The City That Never Sleeps DLC sees the two interacting in person....

The comments came from an online conversation between her and Lord William Hague entitled, “The Future of Liberal Democracies,” which was hosted by Chatham House, an independent policy institute headquartered in London. Hague is a former U.K. foreign secretary, a former leader of the House of Commons, and a Member of Parliament from 1989 to 2015. Hague asked the former senator and secretary of state if governments need to do more to prevent Russia, Iran and other countries from using the internet to meddle in elections....

So it’s a moment for miracles. And there’s really only one thing Hillary Clinton can do, perhaps, to pull one off. That is to play to her greatest strength–her Clintonian credibility on the economy. The economy, after all, was her husband Bill’s pride and joy during his eight years in office, it is probably her own area of greatest expertise, and now it is the issue of greatest concern to voters....

The Red Devils have seen their Swedish striker become a talismanic figure during his debut campaign in England. Mou: We needed Ibra personality At 35 years of age, a 26-goal return has him spearheading a quest for further silverware at home and abroad – having already netted vital goals in Community Shield and EFL Cup triumphs. His value to the cause is not lost on his Old Trafford team-mates, although an all-encompassing desire for victory can be frustrating at times....

Former Athletic Bilbao coach Ernesto Valverde was appointed Barca boss this week and, having worked with Herrera before, he has been linked with a move for the United midfielder. Ronado: I am not a Galactico But Herrera - who made 50 appearances in all competitions in 2016-17 as United won the Community Shield, the League Cup and the Europa League - is happy at Old Trafford, insisting he still strives to pay the club back for signing him....

Prior to Hertha’s Bundesliga encounter with Schalke, the club became the first European outfit to take a knee – a practice that has become common for many professional athletes in the United States. 16/5 for Dortmund and Leipzig draw Former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick began the practice during last year’s NFL campaign, protesting police violence and racial injustice by taking a knee during the American national anthem. The protests have since spread to other NFL teams and other American sports, as the controversy was inflamed last month by U....

“Joan of Arcadia” is really two shows stitched awkwardly together. The first–the good one–is about Joan, her run-ins with God (he wants her to apply herself more) and her relationship with her two siblings: 15-year-old science geek Luke (Michael Welch) and paraplegic older brother Kevin (Jason Ritter), a dreamboat who lost the use of his legs in a car accident. When God introduces himself to Joan after their bus ride, she’s skeptical....

Last night, Hillary Clinton came to Hackensack for her first major New Jersey rally of the cycle–and the fervor reached levels typically reserved for candidates named “Barack Obama.” The queue snaked hundreds of yards from the front door of the Bergen Academies high school to the far reaches of the parking lot; dozens gave up on getting a seat and could be seen retreating to their cars even before the event began....
