Few who lived through that period, Oct. 14-28, 1962, will ever forget the drama that unfolded day by day. There was Kennedy’s somber television speech to the nation on Oct. 22. Two days later, on Oct. 24, came news that Soviet ships approaching the U.S. Navy’s mid-Atlantic quarantine line had stopped dead in the water. “We’re eyeball to eyeball,” Secretary of State Dean Rusk said laconically, “and I think the other fellow just blinked....

Sportswriters, typically the most curmudgeonly house in the Fourth Estate, range from concerned to blase. Steve Politi, a sports features writer for Newark’s Star-Ledger, called the Madrid train bombings a wake-up call. “Now we’re hearing about bombs in [soda] bottles,” said Politi, whose wife worries about his assignment, “and I think a course like this isn’t a bad idea.” Star-Ledger sports editor Chris D’Amico said his writers are eager for the course: “It’ll scare them and ease their minds at the same time....

Atletico struggled to break down a stubborn Athletic at the Wanda Metropolitano before Simeone turned to Gameiro as his second substitute, taking off Koke and reconfiguring his side’s attack. Gameiro subsequently repaid his boss with a goal and an assist, scoring from a pass from fellow French forward Antoine Griezmann before setting up Diego Costa to wrap up the points. The 30-year-old has a knack for providing game-changing moments on February 18, having hit a five-minute hat-trick in a 4-1 rout of Sporting Gijon on the same date a year ago....

I am a gun owner. I’ve been the lead advocate for gun violence prevention here in Massachusetts. In 1994, I realized that 19 kids under 20 years old were dying every day, and 106 Americans dying every day, from firearms. So I built a 250-foot billboard of the Massachusetts Turnpike near Fenway Park and put up messages around gun safety. Since that point in Massachusetts, we’ve reduced gun deaths by 40 percent....

America added more than 4 million cases in December, nearly double the cases reported in November, in a wave that experts believe is being fueled by the highly contagious Delta and Omicron variants.

The human costs of this economic turmoil are staggering....
