False Alarms About a National Crime Wave
Despite concerns over a short-term rise in murder rates, overall crime statistics are still at a low point compared to recent decades."Misunderstanding crime rates — or worse, using them for political purposes — makes it hard to have an informed debate about which policies will be most likely to keep violence down."

The Upshot
More Menus Have Calorie Labeling, but Obesity Rate Remains High
It turns out that knowing calorie counts is not necessarily going to change what people eat. What else might work better?Labeling schemes will not work.
The opportunity cost is low.
They will be tried more.
Raising the price of fructose will be avoided for now.
A sugar tax would interfere with political contributions.

Broncos Knock Patriots From Ranks of the Unbeaten
Denver running back C.J. Anderson’s 48-yard run in overtime at a snowy Sports Authority Field was the game winner, and the rookie quarterback Brock Osweiler shined in his duel with New England’s Tom Brady.
"Tom Brady lost yet another one of his trusted targets, and this time he also lost a game.
C. J. Anderson scored on a 48-yard run with 12 minutes 32 seconds left in overtime, powering the host Denver Broncos past the New England Patriots, 30-24, on a snowy Sunday night.
Watching
from the cozy indoors at field level was Peyton Manning as Brock
Osweiler and the Broncos (9-2) overcame an early 14-0 deficit and handed
the Patriots (10-1) their first loss since 2014.
Now the Carolina Panthers (11-0) are the N.F.L.’s only unbeaten team.
Osweiler
threw a 3-yard touchdown pass to Bubba Caldwell with 1:09 left in
regulation to put the Broncos up, 24-21. But Brady, playing without the
injured star tight end Rob Gronkowski, needed just five plays to drive
the Patriots 51 yards and into range for Stephen Gostowski’s 47-yard
field goal that tied it at the end of regulation.
New
England won the coin toss and elected to receive, but thanks to a sack
by Von Miller, Denver forced a three-and-out and, on third-and-1 from
the New England 48, Anderson raced around the left sideline and into the
north end zone."
