Five-time World champion Viswanathan Anand will lead India's charge at the online Nations Cup beginning on Tuesday, where some of the world's best players will face off amid the coronavirus pandemic which has thrown the sporting calendars out of gear. The six-team event, touted to the richest online team tournament, features all the big names in the game with World champion Magnus Carlsen being the only big gun missing from the line-up.

India suffered a double blow, losing its third and fourth round matches to Europe and top-seeded China by similar 1.5-2.5 margins, on the second day of the FIDE-Chess.com Online Nations Cup on Wednesday. Five-time World champion Viswanathan Anand came up against a strong opponent in Ding Liren and the two agreed to sign peace in 54 moves. P Harikrishna held higher-rated Yu Yangyi to a draw while long-time rivals Koneru Humpy and Hou Yifan drew their game.

Viswanathan Anand was in Germany to play in the Bundesliga chess and before he could return, the travel restrictions came calling in wake of the pandemic.

Australia’s annual dry seasons are known for droughts and wildfires, but the dry season of 2019--2020 was remarkable due to the sheer extent of the devastation. By some estimates, more than 10 million hectares (38,600 square miles, an area slightly larger than the U.S. state of Indiana) burned, killing several million animals (including many of the country’s koalas) and more than 30 people. On a positive note, burned areas will recover from this disturbance, and tree planting and other forms of ecological restoration can help to hasten this process.

Since the International Whaling Commission placed an international moratorium on whaling in 1986, few countries have engaged in the practice. Iceland was one of them, however, and it has hunted whales sporadically since then and has been roundly criticized by many neighboring countries for doing so. There are indications now that a generational shift in consuming whale meat for food is taking place in the country---with younger citizens avoiding whale meat altogether and thus reducing the economic demand for the product.

Service dogs and other assistance animals play important roles in helping people with disabilities interact and function in the modern world. But what happens when people exploit the system, possibly even to the point of blatant fraud?

It was previously reported that lions and tigers in New York’s Bronx Zoo had become infected with SARS-CoV-2, and they were displaying symptoms of COVID-19. Now, it seems that there is evidence that other species, namely cats and dogs, can become infected with the virus, though they respond differently to it than humans do. This week's blog post below discusses the possibility of catching COVID-19 from a dog or a cat.
