☆ Read the Arizona Supreme Court’s Abortion Ruling

§ 13-3604, which had provided that a woman who has an abortion that is not necessary to save her life shall be imprisoned from one to five years. By affirmatively declining to hold women criminally responsible for seeking or obtaining an abortion, the legislature did not grant women a right to seek an abortion; it simply decided the state would not prosecute women for doing so. The majority misses the mark by asking and then answering whether § 36-2322(B) grants a limited right to abortion. ¶79 Fifth, the majority incorrectly elevates the construction note in § 36-2322(B)'s session law to equal its text. See Redgrave v. Ducey, 251 Ariz. 451, 457 ¶ 22 (2021) (concluding that if statutory text conflicts with a

PARK CITY, Utah (AP) — Jesse Eisenberg had not seen “Succession” when he was writing his new film “A Real Pain.” But his sister Hallie Eisenberg knew from years of watching Roman Roy that Kieran Culkin would be perfect. Eisenberg had wanted to play the spontaneous one, which was similar to a character he'd played on stage in “The Spoils” in England. They’d met previously through their mutual friend Emma Stone, who also produced “A Real Pain,” but he really didn’t know him well. His hope is that “A Real Pain” speaks to a cross-cultural, universal experience — though he’s also worried that sounds too much like a commercial. In addition to trying to sell “A Real Pain,” Eisenberg is also starring in “Sasquatch Sunset,” about a family of Sasquatches.

☆ U.S. political violence driven by new breed of ‘grab-bag’ extremists

The incidents involve violence emanating from across the political spectrum, including dozens of cases of substantial property damage by leftists at political demonstrations. Steven Cheung, a spokesman for Trump, didn’t respond to questions from Reuters about the former president’s remarks and the impact of his rhetoric. But those who study extremism say psychiatric problems alone rarely induce political violence. “How could I take care of a brother in arms if I couldn’t even take care of myself?” Aldrich told the court. In the summer of 2022, Aldrich told the group he wanted to build a website to “promote freedom of speech,” Arroyo said.

☆ Discord bans AI-generated child sex abuse material and teen dating

SAN FRANCISCO — Discord's head of trust and safety said Tuesday that the popular chat platform was changing and clarifying its child safety policies including those around around teen dating and AI-generated child sexual abuse material, an announcement that comes after an NBC News investigation last month into child safety on the platform. The Washington Post reported in June that AI-generated child sex images have proliferated across the internet in recent months. The company said in a blog post announcing the changes that the updated child sexual abuse material policy would include "any text or media content that sexualizes children, including drawn, photorealistic, and AI-generated photorealistic child sexual abuse material. Under this policy, teen dating servers are prohibited on the platform and we will take action against users who are engaging in this behavior." In June, an NBC News investigation found hundreds of Discord servers that appeared to promote child abuse material, and some servers that advertised themselves as teen or child-dating servers that solicited nude images from minors.

☆ Highlights From More Than 50 Years of Glenda Jackson Reviews

— Vincent Canby1972: FILMBecause both Miss [Vanessa] Redgrave and Miss Jackson possess identifiable intelligence, “Mary, Queen of Scots” is not as difficult to sit through as some bad movies I can think of. It’s just solemn, well-groomed and dumb. — Vincent Canby1973: FilmMelvin Frank’s “A Touch of Class” is a very patchy movie — enormously funny in bits and pieces and sometimes downright dumb. There are also some fine farcical scenes more or less dedicated to the proposition that maintenance of a love nest is, at best, full of peril. — Janet Maslin1980: FILMMy only reservation is that Miss Jackson isn’t on the screen enough.

☆ Glenda Jackson, British actor turned politician, dies aged 87

Raw-boned, pallid and angular, with striking, sharp eyes, she had starred on stage, television and film before quitting to take up politics, declaring: "An actor's life is not interesting". Jackson also won two Emmy awards for her portrayal of England's Queen Elizabeth I in the BBC's 1971 television series "Elizabeth R". After more than three decades on stage and film, Jackson quit acting and took her no-nonsense, straight-talking style into politics. In 1992, at the age of 55, Jackson won a seat in parliament representing the left-of-centre Labour Party in a constituency in north London. In parliament, Jackson was vociferous in her condemnation of the Conservative Party which she accused of instilling a "dreadful, dreadful moral malaise" in Britain.

LONDON, Feb 20 (Reuters) - Faux fur, oversized coats and hot water bottles dominated Burberry’s (BRBY.L) runway as Daniel Lee presented his vision for the British heritage label at London Fashion Week on Monday. Burberry's mackintosh-style trench coat was re-imagined in a muted khaki with green faux fur lapels. English rose patterned tailoring sat alongside chunky rubber boots with an equestrian twist and cosy square toed shearling and faux fur shoes in the Autumn Winter 2023 collection. Monday's show follows the unveiling of Burberry's new logo: a sleeker elongated typeface and a campaign steeped in "Britishness". Lee previously created a buzz at Italy's Bottega Veneta with pillowy leather clutch handbags and slip-on heels.

„O comisie de medici a decis să-l transfere pe A. Navalnîi la spitalul regional pentru deținuți”, se spune într-un comunicat al Serviciul penitenciar din regiunea Vladimir, în subordinea căruia se află colonia penitenciară în care se află Navalnîi, potrivit The Moscow Times. „Starea de sănătate a lui Navalnîi este evaluată ca fiind satisfăcătoare și este examinat zilnic de către un medic generalist”, se mai spune în comunicat. Vineri, procurorii ruși au cerut unei instanțe să declare Fundația Anticorupție Navalnîi și birourile regionale organizații „extremiste”, într-o încercare de a le scoate în afara legii, iar membrii și susținătorii să fie închiși. Miniștrii de externe ai Uniunii Europene intenționează să discute situația lui Navalnîi luni. Între timp, ambasadorul Rusiei la Londra, Andrei Kelin, a declarat că Navalnîi „nu va fi lăsat să moară în închisoare”.
