2 h. ago Manchester City make title statement as Haaland and Doku sweep Liverpool aside

It was all about which of these rivals could capitalise on Arsenal’s draw at Sunderland on Saturday, who could make a statement about their intention to chase down the Premier League leaders. It was Manchester City who cleared their throats and made it plain that they are in this race for the long-haul.

They could shrug off the inconvenience of Erling Haaland missing a controversially awarded 13th minute penalty to put on a show of strength, particularly in the first-half. Continue reading...

I had accompanied her – my dear friend – to a recent doctor’s appointment. She is in her 70s, lives alone while navigating multiple chronic health issues, and has been getting short of breath climbing the front stairs to her apartment. In the exam room, she spoke slowly and self-consciously, the way people often do when they are trying to describe their bodies and anxieties to strangers.
