China's fraught plan to end the war in Ukraine

In the past, it has avoided the risks and responsibilities that come with a leadership role on foreign policy questions that aren't directly relevant to China's national security. Now that Xi Jinping has consolidated vast power at home, he's ready to assert his country's influence in new ways. Yet, direct intervention in Russia's war on Ukraine is fraught with risk for China, its relations with America and Europe, and the entire global economy.

What's in China's peace plan? Despite Western suspicions that the proposal is designed mainly to help Russia, it calls for formal respect for Ukraine's sovereignty, protections for Ukrainian civilians, an end to interference with the flow of humanitarian aid into the country, and condemnation of the possible use of nuclear weapons. The plan also reflects the views of those around the world whose primary interest in the war is economic, by calling for a cease-fire, an end to sanctions, and the opening of peace talks that might help ease pressure on food and fuel prices.

Are mosquitoes getting more dangerous? - It's not news that mosquitoes carry a number of viruses and parasites that can be harmful to human health, including malaria, dengue, yellow fever, chikungunya, West Nile virus, and eastern equine encephalitis.

Mosquitoes seem to be everywhere this year, and they're not just a nuisance at outdoor gatherings. Health experts say they're carrying some serious diseases—a fact that's hitting home in the U.S., as some towns in Massachusetts have shut down public parks and other outdoor areas in the evenings, after mosquitoes in the region were learned to be carrying eastern equine encephalitis, a rare but deadly virus. And Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country's former top infectious-disease expert, was recently hospitalized with a West Nile virus infection he is believed to have acquired from a mosquito buzzing through his backyard.

Dana White The Ultimate Fighting Championship CEO on manhood, his friendship with Donald Trump, and the future of the fight business

Why do you think Donald Trump asked you, and not a family member, to introduce him at July's Republican National Convention? Listen, he and I are really, really good friends. What I think, and from what his kids have told me, I am the one guy he connects with. They call it \"bro-out\"-we bro-out together.

There can be only one Sally Rooney

A FEW YEARS AGO, SOMEONE POSTED a photo of a man walking through Brooklyn with a copy of Conversations With Friends tucked in the back of his trousers, the words SALLY ROONEY peeking out above his waistband. It was an accessory that telegraphed as much about his personal style as his choice in attire did. Less than a month earlier, the book critic Constance Grady had published an essay titled \"The Cult of Sally Rooney,\" deeming it \"aspirational\" to be a fan: \"If you read Sally Rooney, the thinking seems to go, you're smart, but you're also fun and you're also cool enough to be suspicious of both 'smart' and 'fun' as general concepts.\"

Kate Winslet puts Lee Miller in the frame

KATE WINSLET LOVES TABLES. SHE LOVES THEM SO MUCH that the Oscar-winning actor collects them. There is nothing fancy about these antiques, but they enchant her. \"It's the knots and the whorls, the shape and feel,\" she says. \"They can feel like old friends, and there is something emotionally charging about an old table that comes with a history-I find imagining what that might be enormous fun.\"

The heartache of calling Israel home

I KNEW THAT AS SOON AS WE CAME HOME TO ISRAEL, I'd ask myself why we'd been so eager to get back. I'd disconnected for a few days in New York City with my family, even stopped wearing the hostage necklace I wore every day, and I knew it would be hard to return.
