Ukraine: The United Kingdom is evacuating some diplomatic personnel from Kyiv.

A Ukrainian civilian participates in a training drill - Russian military have been bolstering their presence along the Ukrainian border.

Following Russian invasion predictions, the UK has begun to withdraw workers from the British embassy in Ukraine.

There have been no explicit threats to British diplomats, according to officials, but around half of the staff in Kyiv will return to the UK.

It comes as the US has urged the relatives of its diplomatic workers in Ukraine to flee the country, warning that a Russian invasion might happen "at any time."

Russia has stated that it has no plans to intervene militarily in Ukraine.

Due to the continued tensions and the "potential for harassment against US nationals," the US State Department has advised travelers not to travel to Ukraine and Russia.

According to a State Department advisory, there are rumors that Russia is considering significant military action against Ukraine.

The move is, however, cautious, and nothing specific is believed to have transpired in the last 24 hours to have prompted it.

Non-essential Staff from the US embassy has also been advised they can leave, and US citizens have been encouraged to do so.

The US has stated that this is not an evacuation, but the State Department has stated that in the event of a Russian invasion, it "will not be in a position to evacuate US nationals," according to the AFP news agency.

At this time, the European Union will not follow suit. Josep Borrell, the EU's Security Policy chief, has stated that he will not "dramatise" the situation.

The Supreme Court Appears To Be Leaning Toward Upholding A Mississippi Abortion Legislation That Would Overturn Roe V. Wade.

Angel

  The Supreme Court hinted on Wednesday that it is on the verge of significantly curtailing abortion rights in the United States, and that it is likely to maintain a Mississippi law that violates one of the key principles of the Roe v. Wade decision, which was handed down over 50 years ago. It was uncertain if the court would finally overturn Roe, which held that women have a fundamental right to terminate their pregnancies. Mississippi's statute forbidding most abortions after 15 weeks, according to Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., is not a "dramatic departure" from viability, and gives women adequate time to decide whether or not to terminate their pregnancies. However, none of the court's six conservative members expressed support for upholding the court's ruling that states cannot prohibit abortion before fetal viability, which is commonly believed to be between 22 and 24 weeks of pregnancy. "Why would 15 weeks be an improper line?" he continued. O...

Ways to relief stress

Stress is the body's reaction to any change that requires an adjustment or response. The body reacts to these changes with physical, mental, and emotional responses. Stress is a normal part of life. You can experience stress from your environment, your body, and your thoughts. Even positive life changes such as a promotion, a mortgage, or the birth of a child produce stress. It triggers your fight-or-flight response in order to fight the stress or  run away from it. Typically, after the response occurs, your body should relax. Too much constant stress can have negative effects on your long-term health.  The human body is designed to experience stress and react to it. Stress can be positive, keeping us alert, motivated, and ready to avoid danger. Stress becomes negative when a person faces continuous challenges without relief or relaxation between stressors. As a result, the person becomes overworked, and stress-related tension builds. The body's auto...

Michelle Mone, a Conservative peer, has been accused of sending a racist message to an Indian-origin man, who claims in an official complaint that she informed him he was "a waste of a guy's white skin."
