- Karl Bushby embraced his weeping mother in his arms Monday as he returned to his northern England home to complete a 28-year odyssey to walk around the world.
“Where have you been?” his mother, Angela, asked as he arrived outside the home he left in 1998 that was now decked with a banner saying “Welcome Home Son.”
He didn’t need to tell her.
Bushby set out from Punta Arenas, Chile, on Nov. 1, 1998, and walked 31,000 miles (50,000 kilometers) across four continents and 30 countries to get home. He navigated shifting ice over the Bering Strait and swam across the Caspian Sea and English Channel to avoid taking a boat or plane — or any transport — to propel him forward.
He vowed not to return until he could complete the journey on foot. It was an eye-opening adventure full of danger and drudgery that was interrupted for years at a time by the unexpected: the 2008 financial crash that sapped funding from sponsors, th...

The award-winning host expressed uncertainty about how his recovery will progress, but he has set a goal to improve and return to work with Kornheiser.

- A Colorado National Guard Black Hawk helicopter sustained a blade strike during a hoist rescue mission in Boulder County Saturday night.
Five people — three National Guard soldiers and two civilian rescue technicians — were on board at the time of the strike. A National Guard spokesperson said the helicopter was taking part in the rescue around 10:15 p.m. near Nederland and that the helicopter's blades struck nearby "obstacles." The crew was able to maneuver the helicopter to a field near a trailhead and land the aircraft, the National Guard spokesperson said.
“I am incredibly grateful that everyone returned home from this mission. Army aviators train to the most rigorous standards in the world to handle unexpected emergencies, and that training was on full display during last night’s incident,” said Adjutant General of Colorado U.S. Army Maj. Gen. Robert Davis. “While military aviation inherently carries risk, our top priority remains the safe...
