Women experiencing miscarriages are reporting delays or denial of treatments following the reversal of Roe v. Wade. While new laws banning or restricting abortions are technically intended to apply only to that procedure, some patients have reported hurdles[in the way of receiving standard surgeries or medication for the loss of desired pregnancies](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRkuGGvP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMi8wNy8xNy9oZWFsdGgvYWJvcnRpb24tbWlzY2FycmlhZ2UtdHJlYXRtZW50Lmh0bWw_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9NTcmZW1jPWVkaXRfbmVfMjAyMjA3MTgmaW5zdGFuY2VfaWQ9NjY5NzMmbmw9ZXZlbmluZy1icmllZmluZyZyZWdpX2lkPTc3Njc0OTUyJnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9OTg4NjkmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmLVr9zVYsw7lWFSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~). These treatments are the same as those used for abortions. One patient said a Texas hospital sent her home with instructions to return only if she was bleeding excessively.

Claes Oldenburg, a Pop artist who made monumental sculptures of everyday objects, died at 93. Born in Sweden, Oldenburg entered the New York art scene in the 1950s, experimenting with drawings, collages and papier-mâché.

Full of muscle and devoid of bone, the elephantâs trunk can move in an infinite number of directions and is capable of many tasks, including tearing up foliage and suctioning up water and food.

Researchers who worked with elephants at Zoo Atlanta determined that different sections of the trunk serve distinct functions based on the nature of the skin. The upper surface, covered in long folds, has this âflexible armor like Kevlarâ that makes it easily extendable. By contrast, the underside of the trunk is covered in smaller wrinkles and used for gripping and moving objects. Have a highly efficient evening. Brent Lewis compiled photos for this briefing.
