Keller was a partner at the international law firm Hogan Lovells, that is, until she shared her convictions about Roe v....

But the stepped-up demand from businesses is aggravating a vaccine shortage that’s left some high-risk patients, as well as some companies, clamoring for their shots. A slow-growing strain in this year’s vaccine (it’s updated annually by the Centers for Disease Control) caused delays in delivery of the 75 million doses. General Motors doesn’t expect to get its vaccine until mid-November, more than a month late. That’s a problem because the start of the flu season coincides with the end of the calendar year, when GM is trying to hit annual production targets....

Representatives from the two rival factions of the conflict, former U.S. officials and experts all told Newsweek that the wrong move by the U.S. at this critical juncture could spell disaster, creating a perhaps fatal setback for the recent fragile diplomatic discussions among the rival parties and a return to all-out war that would further devastate Afghanistan and potentially extend the “forever war” fought by Washington there for nearly two decades....

The Colchoneros have, however, identified the man who can bring a smile to fans’ faces: Lautaro Martinez, the sensational Argentine striker whom they hope will become their answer to Cristiano Ronaldo. Over the course of a stellar breakout 2017, perhaps the most fearsome opponent Martinez had to face was the left-hand post at the visiting end of Racing Club’s El Cilindro home. The 20-year-old star hit the same section of woodwork no less than three times towards the end of the year; it denied him an equaliser in his club’s Copa Sudamericana quarter-final against Libertad in the dying minutes, as well as the chance to level an Avellaneda derby won by Independiente....
