NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! The University of Oregon recently announced that the school will begin offering abortion pills to its students beginning in the fall. The Lund Report, an independent outlet that covers health news for Oregon and southwest Washington, reported the school will start offering mifepristone and misoprostol to students only at the university health center. Mifepristone blocks progesterone, a hormone needed to sustain pregnancy, and is typically followed by misoprostol to complete the abortion.PRO-LIFE ORGANIZATION CALLS ON HHS AND FDA TO SUSPEND ABORTION PILL APPROVAL, TIGHTEN SAFETY RULES A study from the Ethics and Public Policy Center last April, authored by Ryan T. Anderson, the organization’s president, and Jamie Bryan Hall, its director of data analysis, reviewed a claims database that included 865,727 prescribed mifepristone abortions from 2017 to 2023.It found that 10.93% of women “experience sepsis, infection, hemorrhaging, or another serious adverse event within 45 days following a mifepristone abortion.” The Lund Report said the decision to provide abortion pills came after a campaign from UO Students for Choice, Associated Students of UO and Young Democratic Socialists of America at the University of Oregon. In February, The Daily Emerald reported that UO YDSA “has been campaigning for…

There’s a clarity of purpose when it comes to single-action pistols like the 1911. The single-action was the first type of semi-automatic pistol, and it still remains popular through to today. Sir Winston Churchill claimed such a gun, the Mauser C96, saved his life in the Battle of Omdurman in 1898. On our side of the Atlantic, the 1911 .45 was killing America’s enemies before World War I, and did so through that conflict, as well as World War II, Vietnam, and even into the 21st century’s War on Terror. The Texas Rangers availed themselves of the 1911 as soon as it was adopted in the eponymous year, and it remains a signature gun of that fabled group of lawmen to this day. Modern 1911 variants like the Springfield Operator prove this isn’t just a nostalgic choice. Real-world performance keeps serious shooters coming back to this proven platform. Indeed, in an era of striker-fired service pistols, the 1911 is undergoing a resurgence of popularity through variants like the increased-capacity Springfield Armory Prodigy 9mm series. Of course, 1911’s have been protecting American homes and law-abiding concealed carriers the whole time through today. Additionally, pistols of the 1911 breed continue to rule in…

When speaking about the Strait of Hormuz and its closure to United States and Israeli vessels, U.S. President Donald Trump claimed Iran gave him a “present.” “They’re going to make a deal. They did something [Monday] that was amazing, actually. They gave us a present,” Trump said. Trump said he could not disclose what the gift was, but said it was “oil and gas-related” and was connected to the Strait of Hormuz. Simulation: Extended Strait of Hormuz Closure Could Affect $1.2 Trillion in Global Trade “The present arrived today, and it was a very big present worth a tremendous amount of money,” he said, according to a quote published by Fox News.  While speaking to reporters in the White House Oval Office, Trump said that the Iranian leadership sent him the gift on Monday, and it arrived on Tuesday. The Iranian regime was previously charging some tankers millions of dollars to pass through the global shipping choke point, according to a report from Iran International. Strait of Hormuz Closure Hinders Global Oil Supply Iran has also ordered federal agencies not to cooperate with the regional government and said it “will appoint a committee responsible for facilitating the formation of a new South…

The main difference between rimfire and centerfire cartridges lies in where the primer is located and how the firing pin strikes it. Rimfire ammunition has a priming compound distributed around the inside rim of the cartridge base. Centerfire ammo has a separate primer component seated in the center of the case head. The differences between rimfire and centerfire cartridges are significant. Yet, there are many similarities. This article breaks down the differences you should know. This fundamental design difference affects everything from reliability to reloadability to what calibers are even possible to manufacture. How Rimfire Ammunition Works A rimfire cartridge gets its name from the simple fact that the firing pin strikes the rim. The case head has a folded rim that contains priming compound pressed into it during manufacturing. When the firing pin hits anywhere on that rim, it crushes the compound, creating the spark that ignites the powder. Shown is a Springfield Armory Model 2020 chambered for the .22 LR rimfire cartridge. Springfield also offers the rifle chambered for a variety of centerfire cartridges. This design is cheap to manufacture. Really cheap. That’s why .22 LR ammunition costs so little compared to centerfire rounds. The entire case can…

The Cincinnati Bengals added key depth behind Joe Burrow on Wednesday.The Bengals announced that they re-signed 41-year-old quarterback Joe Flacco to a one-year deal. The contract is for $6 million, but is worth up to $9 million with incentives, according to ESPN.”I love the building,” Flacco told the team website. “I enjoyed being there, and I’m excited about being back with the fellas.” The Bengals acquired Flacco after he was benched by the Cleveland Browns after four starts. Burrow was hurt at the time, and Jake Browning, who was the backup before Flacco arrived, had underwhelmed.Flacco made six starts for the Bengals and played well, despite the team having a 1-5 record in that span. He completed 61.7% of his passes for 1,664 yards with 13 touchdowns and four interceptions, and the Bengals offense averaged more than 27 points per game.Making Flacco’s performance more impressive, he played through a sprained AC joint in his shoulder with the Bengals.Flacco was looking to find a starting job in free agency, but after not getting one, he struggled with the reality that he might not play at all.COWBOYS STAR DAK PRESCOTT’S EX POSTS ABOUT ‘GROWTH’…
