Droughts and floods are supercharging health crises. As a result, over 76 million people in the greater Horn of Africa and the Sahel are experiencing extreme hunger, and millions are close to famine, leaving them more vulnerable to infectious diseases and the complications of malnutrition.

But back to the Friday trade, in which the Canadiens traded a 24-year-old forward who’s under team control for two more seasons and has a track record of scoring goals, for a 23-year-old to whom Montreal instantly gave a two-year contract extension and does not have a track record for scoring. Bergevin is already talking about his intangibles. Galchenyuk, who is just 13 months older than Domi, has six years of NHL experience....

It Was Good While It Lasted

No one strove for that harder than federal President Vaclav Havel, a dissident playwright in the communist era who was hailed after the revolution as a sort of philosopher-king, transforming Prague into a capital of new ideas and new polities.

It Was Perfect For 80 Minutes Klopp Pleased Despite Roma Recovery

Mohamed Salah and Roberto Firmino both scored twice, while Sadio Mane was also on target, as Liverpool raced into a 5-0 lead after 68 minutes of the first leg.
