STRASBOURG — European Parliament President Roberta Metsola had the casting vote at a closed-door meeting that could entrench the European Parliament even more firmly in its Strasbourg home.Metsola convened her 14 vice presidents on Monday to decide on an offer from the French government, revealed by POLITICO in May, to rent out a new office building to the Parliament for €700,000 per year.After months of dithering about purchasing the building, the Parliament has been considering a May 3 offer from Paris, in which the French government would buy the so-called Osmose building — a state-of-the-art block that boasts 15,000m² of space, not far from the Parliament’s hemicycle in Strasbourg — and then lease it to the Parliament. Paris described the offer as “advantageous” and the Parliament said it’s one-fifth the price it would have been on the open market at the time an assessment was carried out earlier this year. It comes also as part of the French government...Treat Williams, ‘Everwood’ and ‘Deep Rising’ star, dead at 71

Even as the Ravens welcomed Odell Beckham Jr. to the practice field Tuesday, coach John Harbaugh announced one of the team’s other key wide receivers, Rashod Bateman, will miss “a couple days” of minicamp after he received a cortisone injection to help with his recovery from Lisfranc surgery on his foot.“I’m not expecting ‘Bate’ to be a part of it right now,” Harbaugh said. “He had a shot, for healing purposes, a cortisone-type deal, so that’ll keep him out for a couple days. We decided to just let him keep rehabbing and make sure he’s ready to go for training camp.”Bateman was a limited participant in the Ravens’ three weeks of voluntary organized team activities, and Harbaugh gave no indication that his readiness for training camp is in question.The team’s 2021 first-round pick played just six games last season before electing to have surgery on his injured foot. He also missed the beginning of his...A healthy Odell Beckham Jr. takes the field for first time with Ravens: ‘It feels good to … not feel pain’

Odell Beckham’s road from a crumpled figure sprawled out on the Sofi Stadium turf in Los Angeles with a torn ACL in Super Bowl 56 to taking the field for the first time as a Raven was an arduous one, physically and emotionally.It’s no wonder, then, that the simple act of slipping on a jersey for the start of a mandatory three-day minicamp Tuesday at the team’s facility in Owings Mills struck him as a “meaningful” moment. The 30-year-old former All-Pro missed all of last season with what was the second major knee injury of his career and was back at the Ravens’ facility for the first time since signing as a free agent in April. It was his first meaningful football action in nearly 500 days.“I’ve been trying to not think about it because there’s been so many disappointments,” Beckham said. “I’ve been in a good mental head space to where I’ve tried to downplay this, but I think I’ll be excited to put a ...Patriots’ Matthew Judon, DeVante Parker pass on DeAndre Hopkins questions at minicamp

By COLLEEN SLEVIN (Associated Press)DENVER (AP) — A shooting in downtown Denver amid fans celebrating the Nuggets’ first NBA championship victory was likely sparked by a drug deal gone wrong, police said Tuesday. The violence left 10 people wounded, including one of two suspected shooters.All of the injured are expected to survive, including five or six people that police believe were bystanders not involved in the drug deal, Chief Ron Thomas said at a news conference. He said 20 rounds were fired at the scene, roughly a mile from Ball Arena, where the Nuggets defeated the Miami Heat on Monday night. Police spokesperson Doug Schepman said the shooting was “in the area where we had the largest gathering of folks celebrating during the night,” but the crowd had “diminished quite a bit at that point.”The gunfire broke out at around 12:30 a.m. — about 3 1/2 hours after the game — the Denver Police Department said in a statement.
