Ashes 2019 Australia On Course To Retain The Urn After Humiliating Pitiful England

England appeared to take the upper hand when Jofra Archer took 6-45 to bowl Australia out for 179 on a rain-affected first day of the third Test. That proved to be a false dawn as the tourists humiliated Joe Root’s side on Friday, rolling them over in only 27.5 overs in what were supposed to be batting friendly conditions on a warm day in Leeds. Joe Denly (12) was the only batsman to make double figures in England’s lowest total at Headingley and its worst against its fierce rivals since 1948, Hazlewood (5-30) the pick of the bowlers with great support from Pat Cummins (3-23) and James Pattinson (2-9)....

Ask A Doula How Do You Help People With Abortion Care

Abortion doulas around the country are rallying support for people in Texas against institutional deterrents, financial strain, and societal stigma associated with abortion. Doulas—different than midwives—are not medical professionals. They provide information, physical, and emotional support during labor, or in the case of an abortion doula, during surgical abortions. Abortion and full-spectrum doulas can work individually, as part of an organization, or within clinics. Some receive donations, which allow them to provide services at little to no cost for low-income patients....

Athletes Refuse To Just Shut Up And Play

NFL players, and their athletic peers in other sports, have challenged the notion that public statements about social and political controversies don’t belong at the games, that the field is sacred ground not to be tainted by words or deeds that break down the wall between the sports world and the real world. PHOTOS: Politics and sports | MORE: Ditka comments on Rams protest | Reggie Bush protests Never mind, of course, that the wall is broken nearly every week, not long after players warm up and shortly before they’re introduced — when the national anthem is accompanied by a military flyover and an American flag the length and width of the field....
