Manager’s refusal to be spooked in the face of more dropped points paved way for leaders’ late surge to victoryThis was a really good game for Arne Slot. On an afternoon when Liverpool had 35 shots in 90 scoreless minutes, then won the game with their last two in added time, and when those goals were scored by Slot’s first substitute and created by his fourth, it was above all a very good game for the idea of process, control and calm intervention.Admittedly these are not generally qualities associated with a late match-winning, mane-tossing, nostril-snorting two-goal Darwin Núñez salvo. But this was how it played out at the Gtech under Slot’s hand. Núñez doubled his league goal tally for the season. He resembled, as ever, and at all moments , a footballer being chased around the pitch by a swarm of invisible bees. He also came away looking on the metrics like a precision stealth weapon deployed at just the right moment. Continue reading...

While the LA fires have been described as unprecedented, here in California we have experience with this kind of fireOver the last seven years, I have covered three of the four deadliest wildfires in modern US history. From the smoldering, forested lots of Paradise to the leveled Lahaina homes overlooking the Pacific, I’ve documented the stories of people who ran for their lives, held the hands of badly burned fire victims and trudged alongside families searching for their missing loved ones.But nothing prepared me for the overwhelming sense of loss that permeates Altadena in the aftermath of the Eaton fire. It’s not just the figures, though they are shocking – nearly 7,000 homes burned and at least 16 dead. Instead, it is the thought that kept returning to me as I surveyed the blackened remnants of homes and so many lives laid bare: it did not have to be this way. Continue reading...

People with post-infectious diseases sometimes struggle to communicate the debilitating impact of their conditions. But a new technique can help them explain visuallyPost-infectious diseases such as long Covid and ME/CFS (myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome) pose a puzzle to the medical establishment. Patients report debilitating symptoms such as extreme fatigue, shortness of breath or muscle pain, but often show normal results on routine medical checkups. And many sufferers do not look ill, leading some to question the severity of their disease. In the absence of diagnostic tools or an understanding of the pathophysiological processes, many sufferers find it difficult to share their experiences. They lack a verbal language that expresses the true impact of the illness.Now, researchers from Oxford University are using the technique of “body mapping” to help patients better communicate the physical, cognitive and emotional dimensions of their illness to family, friends...
