overturned Roe v. Wade last week.In Florida, a law banning abortions after 15 weeks went into effect Friday, the day after a judge called it a violation of the state constitution and said he would sign an order temporarily blocking the law next week.

The ban could have broader implications in the South, where the state has wider access to the procedure than its neighbors.Abortion rights have been lost and regained in the span of a few days in Kentucky.

A so-called trigger law imposing a near-total ban on the procedure took effect upon the Supreme Court’s ruling, but a judge blocked the law Thursday, meaning the state’s only two abortion providers can resume seeing patients — for now.In Texas, abortions up to six weeks resumed at some clinics after a Houston judge said patients still had that right, at least until a new ban on virtually all abortions takes effect in the coming weeks.

But the state has asked the Texas Supreme Court to block that order and allow prosecutors to enforce a ban on abortion now, adding to the uncertainty.FILE - Pamphlets sit in the waiting area at women's health clinic in San Antonio, Texas, on Tuesday, Feb.

Mega Millions $1.02 billion jackpot: Should you take a lump sum or annual payouts?

no one claimed the $830 million draw on Tuesday. The jackpot has grown from a meager $20 million in April, going 29 consecutive draws without a winner. Robert Pagliarini, a financial adviser and author of "The Sudden Wealth Solution," told FOX Business that most winners would want to take the lump sum upfront even though they only get to keep 60% of the total jackpot thanks to taxes — but that would be a mistake. "Most people want to take the lump sum: They want their money upfront, even though they know they're going to, you know, get a 40% hit when they take the lump sum," Pagliarini explained.

Condom use can be a condition of consent in sexual assault cases, Supreme Court rules

Supreme Court of Canada says sex with a condom is a different physical act than sex without one, and that the use of a condom can be a condition of consent under sexual assault law.In a 5-4 decision Friday, the top court says that “no, not without a condom” should not be found to mean “yes, without a condom” in a courtroom.The court has ordered a new trial in a British Columbia case in which a complainant told a new sexual partner, Ross McKenzie Kirkpatrick, that she would only have sex with him if he wore a condom. Man’s decision not to wear condom, after agreeing to, is sexual assault: Ontario judge The fact Kirkpatrick used a condom the first time they had sex led the complainant to assume that he was already wearing one when he initiated sex for a second time, she told the court – but he wasn’t, which she said she did not realize until he ejaculated.The sexual assault charge against Kirkpatrick was dismissed by a trial judge who found there was no evidence the complainant had not consented to “the sexual activity in question,” nor that the defendant had been explicitly deceitful, which would have been another avenue for conviction.Although the reasons for its decision are split, the Supreme Court unanimously agreed with the B.C.
