Women in Georgia have had to navigate the stateâs six week abortion ban for the past few years, but lawyers and advocates say a lawsuit coming out of another Southern state could further restrict access. On Sept. 9 oral arguments began for Louisiana v. the U.S Food and Drug Administration, a suit over telehealth and mail delivery access to the abortion pill mifepristone. In 2020, the FDA began allowing mifepristone to be prescribed through telehealth and delivered to patients in the mail. Previously, the medication was only allowed to be dispensed in-person in a medical facility. In 2023 the agency...

"The Falling Man" is the most controversial photograph to have emerged from the September 11, 2001 attack on New York City's World Trade Center. Taken by Richard Drew of the Associated Press - and visible at this link - the photo shows a man falling headfirst along the side of the soon-to-be-demolished 110-floor North Tower, momentarily captured in an incongruously serene pose that belies the utter surrounding chaos and his imminent demise. When the photo ran in the New York Times and other papers across the country the following day, many readers complained and accused the publications of exploiting the...

Reception has been mixed as Waymo keeps expanding its robotaxi fleet to more and more cities. Los Angeles seems to have embraced them after a rocky start, while Boston flipped the bird to proposed operations there. Minneapolis has proposed a unique approach, reports Axios: requiring a human monitor behind the wheel at all times. Waymo is already testing in Minneapolis. As usual for this early phase of deployment, the cars do not transport passengers, and there's a human in the driver's seat, either driving while the car collects data or monitoring its autonomous operation. The proposed rule, called "Workers Drive...

I'm sure you've already noticed, but oil prices are getting downright absurd. Now, those inflated costs are coming for Costco's motor oil. The wholesale retailer may be known for its solidly low prices, but even it can't help the fact that Crude Oil is trading around $100 per barrel right now. Because of that, it's upping prices and tightening how much it'll sell to any one person. While 10 quarts of Costco's Kirkland Signature full-synthetic motor oil used to set you back $30, and you could buy as much as your heart desired, those days are over â for the...

An elite group of Ukrainian drone operators is hunting Russians from desert dugouts across Africa, as Kyiv wages a proxy war to bleed strongman Vladimir Putinâs global army. Moscow has deployed about 5,000 troops across Mali, Sudan and Libya to back coup-installed military dictatorships and warlords since 2020 â as Putin has tried to fill the void left by Western forcesâ withdrawal and assert himself as a power player â often in exchange for lucrative mining rights. And Ukraine has worked alongside local rebels to fight off those same Russians forces in an effort to forge new alliances against Moscow....

This Wednesday, ProPublica ran an article blaming recently enacted pro-life laws for an increase in ectopic pregnancy deaths. They claim that the ectopic pregnancy death rate has more than doubled since 2014. Additionally, the article provides data which purportedly shows a greater ectopic pregnancy death rate increase in states with strict abortion bans. This article received a large amount of online attention. It was reposted by CNN and has been covered by a number of news outlets including Medical Daily and Scripps Howard. Not surprisingly, there is much less here than meets the eye. First the CDC does not publicly...

A small, forested island that mysteriously appeared and vanished on a reservoir in British Columbia, Canada, was not a mirage. It was on the move. Boaters first spotted the island near Finlay Bay on Williston Reservoir in late July. When BC Hydro began receiving photos and videos of it on Aug. 13, the power company initially questioned whether the images were real. The floating island near the Ospika Arm of the Williston Reservoir on Aug. 31, 2026.

A faction of hardliners inside Tehran took advantage of the countryâs phantom supreme leader to launch the summer attacks in the Strait of Hormuz that derailed a peace deal with the US, according to a new report. After the US and Iran agreed to the Memorandum of Understanding in June, Iranian moderates led by President Masoud Pezeshkian believed the cease-fire would create a pathway to permanently end the war. Those hopes, however, were dashed when Iran attacked three vessels sailing in the Strait of Hormuz, an attack greenlit not by Tehranâs army, but by its newly appointed paramilitary chief, Hossein...

This New York pol has a secret BDSM past. Chris Gallant, 37, the Democratic nominee running against Long Island Rep. Nick LaLota (R-NY) was previously involved in a very different kind of campaign: selling toys as a model for a fetish sex shop, The Post can reveal. Gallant appeared in multiple pics for âMr. S Leather,â a San Francisco-based purveyor of leather-daddy supplies, wearing collars, leather straps, neoprene, bondage gear, and more. These images of Gallant are no longer on the storeâs site, but are still accessible in internet archives, which show they were online between 2011 and 2020. âThe...

Democratic Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego appeared on CNN this morning and said the next Democratic President should destroy all remnants of Trump, including the beautification of Washington, DC, once he leaves the White House. Trump has undertaken various projects to beautify DC, including cleaning the vandalism and restoring statues and monuments across the city, fixing the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, and building a White House Ballroom and a "Triumphal Arch." The Department of the Interior is preparing to break ground on the Arch on Columbia Island, where it will overlook the Arlington National Cemetery and the Lincoln Memorial across the...

Of all Jewish observances, the commemoration of the ninth day of the month of Av is the saddestâand one that reflects the passage of sadness through time. On this day, Tisha BâAv, Jews mourn not only the destruction of Jerusalem by Rome in 70 C.E., but also the even more ancient destruction by Babylon in 586 B.C.E. It was therefore all the more striking that this year, mere days before Tisha BâAv, Israelis unearthed a remnant of that earlier event. The Times of Israel reported: Archaeologists have discovered wooden beams believed to have been burned during the destruction of the...
