Matches of the finals (1) WS: Akane Yamaguchi vs Chen Yufei with a score of 15-21, 12-21.

This victory for China makes the score to 0-1. (2) WD: Yuki Fukushima & Sayaka Hirota vs Chen Qingchen & Jia Yifan with a score of 21-12, 21-17....
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....
Jeremy Lormis, PhD, LPC, lead faculty advisor of the clinical mental health counseling program at the University of Phoenix, told Verywell that just the week before Christmas, he’d learned of a couple of clients who had their holiday plans upended due to the virus. “A whole part of their family wound up contracting COVID, so then other family members were just frightened, and now there’s this buildup,” he said. “[People are wondering if] every four to six months, this is what life is going to be....
RELATED: Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Surprisingly Accurate Historical Details Revisiting events from the past and historical tourism have always been the strongest points of the Assassin’s Creed franchise, so it should come as no surprise that the majority of fan theories regarding the future of the franchise focus on where the next title will be set and how it will play into the grander scheme.

The Dolphins are a very long way from the Super Bowl these days, and on Sunday, watching Darr, who entered the day third in the NFL in yards per punt, was the best thing about watching a Miami team that all but tumbled out of playoff contention and would have suffered a more severe defeat than 38-14 to the Jets had New York been more in sync in the first half....
In the wake of the knee injury suffered by Warriors star Kevin Durant in Washington last night — and with the fears that the MRI on his knee will force him to miss the remainder of the regular season, and perhaps more — McCaw will take center stage.

In all honesty, once, I had agreed with him. I delivered a speech to a large group of Jewish students days before I first moved to Israel, (44 years ago this June), in which I spoke about the fact American Jewry was doomed, and that moving to Israel was the only solution. Over the course of the ensuing decades, after spending more than a few years back in America —including a period during which I became the founding President of a Jewish day school (a school in which more than a few students were the products of intermarried couples), I jettisoned my simplistic black and white views on the future of American Jewry....
The howls coming from Alberta oil country are for Eakins’ head. There’s talk of trades to fix the mix on a team that, despite having the No. 1 pick in more recent drafts than the worst NFL team, hasn’t been able to put anything together.

In western Massachusetts an uprising took place called Shays’ Rebellion. What started as protests against economic policies turned violent. The situation escalated to where thousands of men, led by Revolutionary War soldier Daniel Shays, attempted to seize the major federal weapons depot of the U.S. in Springfield.
