Inter have suspended all competitive activities after it was confirmed Juventus defender Daniele Rugani tested positive for coronavirus.

Juve confirmed on Wednesday that Rugani had contracted the COVID-19 virus, which originated in the Chinese city of Wuhan in December.

Rugani was an unused substitute on Sunday, as Juve saw off Inter 2-0 in a top-of-the-table clash played behind closed doors.

Following Juve’s announcement over Rugani, Inter confirmed they will suspend all competitive activities until further notice.

The World Health Organisation (WHO) has now declared the spread of the illness as a global pandemic, with people urged to self-isolate for 14 days if they have come into contract with someone suffering from the virus.

Italy has responded strongly to the outbreak, with the country placed on lockdown and the government having now suspended all domestic sport until April 3.

Confirmation of Rugani’s condition comes after Serie A was put on hold until at least April with his club now committed to following proper quarantine protocol. 

“The footballer Daniele Rugani has tested positive for Coronavirus-COVID-19 and is currently asymptomatic,” Juventus said in a club statement.

“Juventus Football Club is currently activating all the isolation procedures required by law, including the census of those who have had contact with him.”

Rugani began his career with Empoli in Serie B before joining Juventus in 2015 where he is currently contracted until June 2023. 

The defender’s positive test comes in the wake of news that Juve superstar Cristiano Ronaldo has remained in his hometown of Madeira to limit the risk of getting coronavirus with Italy currently in lockdown.

Coronavirus is having an impact on football all across the world with World Cup qualifiers postponed in a number of regions, while popular competitions such as the Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1 are all being affected.

The Champions League and Europa League have also been altered, with Manchester United’s first leg against LASK Linz in the latter competition set to be played behind closed doors in Austria, while Roma and Getafe’s match has been postponed after the Italian’s plane wasn’t allowed to land in Spain.

Dans cette tenue jaune-poussin, Venus Williams a, la encore, opté pour le short couleur chair. Plus esthétique selon elle, de mauvais goût selon vous ?

Ne trouvant pas de survêtments de sports à sa guise, la tenis-woman est devenue styliste. Ici un modèle violet, prune, mauve, délavé. L’esprit tie&dye à possédé la joueuse le temps du match.

Championne toutes catégories, Venus Williams a remporté 43 titres internationaux et vingt tournois du Grand Chelem. Un parcours sans accrocs sauf quelques balles dans le filet, et quelques robes en filets.

Les années 2000 ont été fatales pour les looks et les coiffures. Venus Williams n’est d’ailleur pas passée à côté de la tendance argenté. Rien que pour avoir osé les dreadlocks en perles blanches, la joueuse mérite l’admiration.

Alors qu’en France, la très paisible Laure Manaudou pause en tee-shirt et pantalon blanc pour des accessoires de maternité, l’Américaine Venus Williams envisage le look très différemment. La championne de tennis aussi connue pour la claque de son coup droit que pour ses tenues, a encore fait parler d’elle. Lors de l’actuel tournoi de Roland Garros, la sœur aînée de Serena Williams a osé une improbable tenue de sport. Sous une nuisette en dentelle rouge et noir, esprit Moulin Rouge, la tenniswoman arborait un short couleur chair laissant penser au spectateurs du match qu’elle était éventuellement nue. Depuis, la presse internationale se déchaîne sur cette tenue signée de la marque de la joueuse, EleVen. Le quotidien canadien The National Post ne s’est pas gêné pour titrer «Venus, rhabille-toi, par pitié». Les formes généreuses et très musclées de la championne ne semblent pas séduire tous les amateurs de tennis. Cette tenue plus sexy que sportive cache-t-elle un jeu de séduction pour ses adversaires?
Retour sur les look les plus incroyables de la tenniswoman américaine.

Leur duo est improbable et pourtant il aura bien lieu: Aretha Franklin, diva soul de légende, et Condoleeza Rice, femme politique, vont monter sur scène ensemble. Mais c’est pour la bonne cause…

Qu’est-ce qui pouvait bien réunir Aretha Franklin, chanteuse soul, et Condoleezza Rice, ex-secrétaire d’Etat de l’administration Bush, hormis la musique? Pas grand chose. Les deux femmes ont en effet des idées politiques diamétralement opposées. Car si l’une a chanté lors de l’inauguration de

, l’autre est fervente républicaine.

Mais les deux stars vont mettre de côté leurs divergences le temps d’une soirée, pour soutenir une cause qui leur tient à cœur: lever des fonds pour des programmes éducatifs.

Ainsi, le 27 juillet prochain, sur la scène du Mann Center for the performing Arts de la ville de Pennsylvanie, la célébrissime et ultra-talentueuse Aretha Franklin, interprétera ses plus grands titres, ainsi que quelques extraits de son nouvel album A Woman Falling Out Of Love, accompagnée de l’ex-diplomate en chef de l’administration Bush!

Eh oui, Miss Rice est une pianiste accomplie, qui joue depuis son plus jeune âge, et a déjà accompagné le célèbre violoncelliste Yo-Yo Ma. Elle jouera donc aux côtés d’Aretha, qui interprètera ses plus grands tubes, dont Say A Little Prayer, ou encore Natural Woman.

«J’ai pensé que nous pouvions faire quelque chose, un effort au delà des clivages partisans pour nos organisations caritatives favorites», justifiait la reine de le soul de 68 ans. Un seul mot: respect.

Qui a dit que était la copine parfaite? Un seul regard sur l’un des clichés qu’elle vient de réaliser pour promouvoir son parfum suffit pour comprendre que la jolie comédienne n’est plus une «girl next door». Attention, Jen sans haut laisse sans voix.

Jennifer Aniston, c’est la copine sympa par excellence, l’actrice qu’on aime tous et toutes. Jolie, naturelle, spontanée, rigolote, fraîche et toujours chic, Jen est la quadra marrante sur qui l’on peut compter et qu’on ne craint plus depuis qu’elle s’est fait larguer par

. Erreur! À 41 ans, Jennifer Aniston est plus épanouie que jamais et n’hésite pas à poser nue en une des magazines. Et force est de constater qu’elle s’assume et resplendit. Si bien qu’elle n’a pas hésité à renouveler l’expérience pour faire la promotion de son premier parfum, Lolavie.

La comédienne de Chasseur de Primes a posé topless à Cabo San Lucas au Mexique, sa destination de vacances préférée. Ainsi, sur trois photos en noir et blanc, la belle joue de tous ses atours, se cachant subtilement la poitrine, mais laissant entrevoir ses abdos de rêve, résultat de son assiduité aux cours de yoga. En vente chez Harrods exclusivement, la fragrance sortira mercredi en présence de Jen, qui en profitera pour donner une séance de dédicaces.

Et le parfum est à son image, naturel et léger: «Ce parfum, ce n’était pas juste un coup pour mettre mon nom sur une bouteille. Je me sentais comme une petite scientifique. C’est une extension de moi-même. L’odeur est sexy et florale sans l’être excessivement. Je ne suis pas une grande fan de parfums. Je voulais quelque chose de naturel».

Celle qui veut prendre un virage à 180 degrés, tenter de nouvelles expériences et passer derrière la caméra a donc décidé de suivre la maxime que dicte son parfum: sourire à la vie!

Le phénomène Avatar revient, pour une courte durée à partir du 1er septembre. Une version spéciale, allongée, pleine de surprises comme l’a annoncé James Cameron.

Vous n’avez pas fini d’entendre parler d’Avatar. Le film le plus

de l’Histoire est décliné en DVD-Blu Ray, dont les ventes ont déjà cartonné. On sait également que James Cameron prévoit d’en faire une trilogie et de tourner les deux épisodes suivants à la suite. Il aurait même la lubie d’écrire un roman préquel de cette histoire d’hommes bleus, qui anticiperait les aventures que l’on connaît déjà.

Mais avant cela, préparez-vous à revoir Avatar, en version longue, dès la rentrée. Le long-métrage durera neuf minutes de plus et sortira le 1er septembre. Et pour ne pas avoir l’impression de payer une place de cinéma pour pas grand chose, James Cameron vous promet monts et merveilles: «Que vous ayez aimé le film ou que vous ne l’ayez pas encore vu, avec cette Special Edition, vous le découvrirez comme jamais auparavant.» Vous pourrez voir la vie en bleu en Digital 3D et Imax 3D. En plus, vous aurez droit à des scènes d’action inédites, et des minutes supplémentaires de scènes coupées au montage dans l’édition précédente. James Cameron a par exemple annoncé dans une interview à MTV, que la mort de Tsu’tey se transformerait en «pur moment d’émotion», où tous les personnages se rassemblent autour de lui. Il y aura également plus d’action avec une super scène où les Na’vis se lancent à l’attaque des bulldozers.

Une nouvelle créature fera son apparition, le «Stuurmbeest», mais on ne sait pas encore à quoi ressemble l’animal. On se demande ce que Cameron a bien pu inventer après le « Banshee », ce dragon que Jake a dû dompter pour se faire accepter par les Na’vis, et le Thanator, cette énorme « panthère des enfers » dans le nouveau monde qu’il a imaginé.

En revanche, dommage pour tous les geeks qui attendaient une scène de sexe plus développée entre Jake Sully et Neytiri. James Cameron n’a pas confirmé qu’elle serait allongée dans l’édition spéciale.

Avatar, couronné aux Oscars et aux Golden Globes, est le plus gros succès de tous les temps avec une recette de plus de 2,7 milliards de dollars au box-office mondial. Et cette somme a de bonnes chances d’augmenter.

Cela fait tout juste deux semaines que l’annonce de sa maladie a eu lieu, mais il s’exprimait hier pour la première fois publiquement sur le sujet: invité du Late Show de David Letterman, a confié qu’il restait optimiste.

«Ça va juste m’empêcher de faire une bonne partie de la promo pour mon nouveau film Wall Street 2», a plaisanté hier Michael Douglas sur le plateau du Late Show de David Letterman, au sujet du cancer de la gorge dont il est atteint.

Une maladie qu’il a tenté de dédramatiser, mais qu’on lui a diagnostiquée il y a trois semaines seulement. Après plusieurs consultations suite à des irritations de la gorge chez différents médecins qui n’ont rien remarqué de suspect, l’acteur a finalement appris qu’il souffrait d’un cancer lors d’une dernière visite médicale. Une maladie détectée trop tard, et qui a malheureusement eu le temps de s’étendre, puisqu’elle en est désormais au stade IV, le plus avancé. Son cancer serait donc incurable.Malgré tout, l’acteur se dit prêt à se battre et optimiste quant à ses chances de guérison: «Normalement, c’est mieux quand on en est au stade 1, mais ce qui inquiète généralement, c’est quand le cancer se propage, et ce n’est pas mon cas. Rien n’est descendu au dessous de la gorge», a déclaré le héros de Basic Instinct. À 65 ans, l’acteur s’est aussi épanché sur son traitement «très intensif». En effet, Douglas entame sa deuxième semaine de chimiothérapie, mais le traitement (mêlé à la radiothérapie, afin d’éviter une opération du larynx), doit encore durer 6 semaines. Cela dit, ce monstre sacré d’Hollywood ne s’avoue pas vaincu: «Les pourcentages sont bons. Je ne devrais pas le dire, mais maintenant il semblerait que les guérisons représentent 80% des cas, et grâce à certains hôpitaux et à d’autres choses, ça progresse encore». S’il se veut rassurant, le comédien a cependant reconnu que sa maladie était directement liée à ses nombreux excès: «Ce type de cancer en particulier est causé par l’alcool. Et moi je fumais des cigarettes et je buvais», a-t-il admis.

Avant d’ajouter pour le magazine People: «Mon cancer, je vais le battre».

Lisa MurkowskiLisa Ann MurkowskiOvernight Energy: Murkowski fumes over stalled energy bill | White House weighs help for oil, gas industry | Dem presses top Trump official on rollback of safety regulations Murkowski fumes over stalled energy bill White House weighs assistance for oil and gas industry MORE (R-Alaska) is fuming after a surprise vote in the Senate killed momentum for a long-awaited energy bill.

Murkowski lashed out at GOP colleagues following an Energy and Natural Resources Committee hearing Tuesday morning, a day after many of her fellow Republicans crossed the aisle to hit the brakes on the bipartisan legislation.

“You have a few individuals who feel that their priority needs to trump everything else that we’re doing around here,” she told reporters.

Her remarks were in response to a 15-73 vote Monday night that failed to end debate on a measure she introduced with Sen. Joe ManchinJoseph (Joe) ManchinOvernight Energy: Murkowski fumes over stalled energy bill | White House weighs help for oil, gas industry | Dem presses top Trump official on rollback of safety regulations Murkowski fumes over stalled energy bill Energy bill stalled amid amendment gridlock MORE (D-W.Va.). The American Energy Innovation Act would spur research and development for different types of energy, addressing the topic for the first time in more than a decade.

They also voted down ending debate on a package of amendments from Murkowski that did not include an amendment to phase down the use of heat-trapping hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) used in refrigerators and air conditioners.

Barrasso argues that the amendment pertains more to his committee, Environment and Public Works (EPW), and that the measure should contain preemption language blocking states from setting any standards that might be stricter than those of the federal government.

Though the White House has also expressed concern over the HFCs amendment, citing the lack of a preemption provision, Murkowski said that’s not what derailed the underlying bill.

Murkowski directed her frustration at both Kennedy — wondering if other legislation would get held up in a quest for a vote on the HFCs amendment — and Barrasso, who refused to give the HFCs bill a hearing in his committee.

“I’m a co-sponsor of that HFC bill. It’s not that I oppose it — I didn’t block that — but the chairman of the committee decided that they weren’t ready for whatever reason, and so there was no deal,” Murkowski said, referring to Barrasso.

“But again, as the chairman of the Energy Committee, I can’t fix EPW’s problems,” she added.

Senate GOP leaders said disagreement over the amendment has likely pushed the bill off the legislative calendar until after next week’s recess.

Murkowski, who burst into Tuesday’s hearing growling like a bear and mimicking claws with her hands, sounded more pessimistic.

“Maybe John Thune is wrong. Maybe it’s not coming back at all. Because right now, I don’t know who I’m going to work with,” she told reporters. “I don’t know whether your recorders are picking up my anger, but this process is not right.”

WHITE HOUSE, BLACK OIL: The White House is considering federal assistance for the oil and gas industry, which has been hit by sinking oil prices due to both the coronavirus and international trade disputes, according to an administration official. 

The official stressed to The Hill in an email on Tuesday that the White House is monitoring the situation, and that the assistance should not be considered a bailout. 

The Washington Post first reported that the White House was considering assistance for oil and gas producers. Three people told the newspaper that the aid would probably be in the form of low-interest government loans to the shale companies. 

Russia declined last week to join nations in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries in agreeing to cut production in response to the slowdown in demand from the coronavirus.

In response, Saudi Arabia announced that it would increase its oil production, flooding the market and causing a sharp decrease in price.

On Monday, prices for Brent crude fell 24 percent.

Industry players including the American Petroleum Institute (API) have denied seeking White House assistance as oil prices plunge. 

“We are not in discussions with anyone at the administration at this time on any kind of program for the industry,” API President and CEO Mike Sommers told reporters on a press call on Monday.”We shouldn’t be reacting to one day of market downturn.”

And what about on Capitol Hill?

Separately, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska), who chairs the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, expressed openness about possible federal aid to oil companies. 

“I think that there are some things, some actions that could be taken. I don’t know if they are specifically being considered right now,” Murkowski told reporters on Tuesday. 

Democrats and environmentalists, however, slammed the idea of giving assistance to the industry.

“Why is the administration bailing out oil and gas companies instead of dealing with some of the other worker related things… that are pressing on the American people right now during this crisis related to the virus?” asked Rep. Raúl Grijalva (D-Ariz.) during a House hearing.

PRESSING QUESTIONS: Rep. Mike Levin (D-Calif.) on Tuesday pressed Trump official Steve Angelle over whether Angelle pushed for a rollback of safety regulations despite objections from career officials.

His questions follow a Wall Street Journal report which said that staff engineers had called for no changes to a two-week testing requirement for devices used to prevent oil well blowouts. 

The report said that Angelle, who leads the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE), instead adopted an industry-preferred three-week testing requirement. 

“Did the career staff at your agency send you a decision memo recommending that the testing frequency stay at two weeks?” Levin asked at a Tuesday House Natural Resources Committee hearing. 

“What I believe I received, sir, was a variety of options that were not ready and ripe for presentation,” Angelle responded.

“Did you call one of the engineers working on that memo and tell them to move that recommendation for two weeks from the memo?” Levin followed up.

“I have no recollection of instructing anybody to remove a recommendation. I do have a recollection of saying that the recommendation was not ripe because the team had received an assignment and they had not yet fulfilled that assignment,” Angelle replied. 

 “So you had the staff edit a memo that was going to you so it would not look like they were recommending what you didn’t want them to recommend,” Levin later said. 

“Incorrect,” Angelle said. “The public policy rulemaking requires a robust discussion and to have recommendations that are not yet fully developed seems to be premature.”

The rule in question was put in place after the Deepwater Horizon oil spill that killed 11 people and left millions of gallons of oil leaking into the Gulf of Mexico.

“To allege that he would threaten the lives and safety of people that are his relatives, his friends and neighbors, is just wrong,” Graves said.

ON TAP TOMORROW: 

On Wednesday Bernhardt will return to Capitol Hill for a House Appropriations Committee hearing on the administration’s proposed budget request for his department.

A House Appropriations panel will also look into the impact of PFAS exposure on servicemembers, while another will examine Trump’s budget request for the Advanced Research Projects Agency–Energy (ARPA-E), which the president has proposed eliminating.

The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee will look at Trump’s nomination of Douglas Benevento to be deputy administrator of the EPA, as well as two nominees for the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

The Senate Appropriations Committee will look at Trump’s proposed budget for the Army Corps of Engineers and the Interior Department’s Bureau of Reclamation.

Democrat presses top Trump official on rollback of safety regulations despite alleged staff objections

U.S. Soccer defended itself in the equal pay lawsuit filed by the U.S. Women’s National Team (USWNT), claiming the World Cup champions’ male counterparts have “more responsibility” and their job “requires a higher level of skill.”

In a Monday court filing, the organization argued it had not violated the Equal Pay Act [EPA] by paying the women’s team less than the men’s team, writing “the job of MNT player carries more responsibility within U.S. Soccer than the job of WNT player, from an EPA standpoint.”

“This ridiculous ‘argument’ belongs in the Paleolithic Era. It sounds as if it has been made by a caveman,” Molly Levinson, spokesperson for USWNT, said in a statement to The Hill on Tuesday.

“Literally everyone in the world understands that an argument that male players ‘have more responsibility’ is just plain simple sexism and illustrates the very gender discrimination that caused us to file this lawsuit to begin with,” Levinson added. “So looking forward to trial on May 5.”

Attorneys for U.S. Soccer asked members of the women’s team in court whether they believed they could be competitive against their male counterparts, according to documents filed last month, with midfielder Carli Lloyd responding “I’m not sure. Shall we fight it out to see who wins and then we get paid more?”

“Do you think it requires more skill to play for the U.S. Men’s National Team than the US Women’s National Team?” another U.S. Soccer attorney asked striker Alex Morgan, to which she responded, “No, it’s a different skill.”

U.S. Soccer also argued male players face a more demanding threat due to the presence of potentially hostile fans, as the visiting team often attracts more fans at men’s games than the women’s team does.

 

Midfielder Megan Rapinoe said Monday that the team would need “an actual offer for equal pay, and some considerable damages as well” for the case not to reach that stage.
