| My impression of such injuries is that they usually happen when one player is a lot lower than the other - for example, if the victim falls before a collision or the skater is upended by somebody else. Sometimes a player can involuntarily flex their leg when falling backwards. I’m struggling for ben... |

| Did you see any video? I don’t think it looks like a typical injury sustained with a skate but I know less than nothing on the subject. I see there is renewed discussion about neck protection since the incident: https://www.espn.co.uk/nhl/story/_/id/38857909/nhl-players-teams-neck-safety-skate-injur... |

| I prefer the poems of Wilfred Owen. They offer a more graphic description of the senseless horrors of the Great War. His anger about the loss of young lives is never far from the surface. Dying for one’s country may be necessary for an unlucky few but it is never sweet: Dulce et Decorum Est Bent dou... |

| ^^^ Ireland is exactly what I think about looking at Israel. It’s weird because the conflict in Israel/Palestine has long been an ‘away game’ for Northern Irish people. Very generally speaking, Protestants tend to support the Israelis and Catholics the Palestinians. The sight of farmers being drive... |

| Lord Black didn’t find space to mention the role that prescribed drugs, particularly OxyContin, played in the opioid crisis. Our doctors were way too eager, much more so than their British colleagues, to hand this stuff out. Were I a Mexican politician I’d be a little tired of calls for ever more wa... |
