A Missouri grandmother is fighting to pass “Bentley’s Law,” a bill that would require drunk drivers who kill a parent to pay child support to the victim’s surviving children. The measure is named after her grandsons, Bentley and Mason, whose parents and baby sibling died in a drunk driving crash in 2021.

If approved, payments would begin roughly one year after the offender is released from prison and continue until the child turns 18, or up to 21 if they are still enrolled in school. Similar laws already exist in Tennessee, Kentucky, Texas, and Maine.

Supporters say the law would hold offenders more fully accountable while helping children left behind cover housing, education, and other basic needs — ensuring the loss of a parent doesn’t also mean financial hardship.

From today, women will be able to order female-only Ubers nationwide.

Uber released a statement:

"When women riders and drivers told us they wanted more control over how they ride and earn, we listened. That feedback led to Women Preferences, features designed to give women the choice to ride with other women. Since our first pilots last summer, we’ve heard just how much that choice matters—from feeling more comfortable in the back seat to more confident behind the wheel.

This International Women’s Day, we’re taking the next step for women in the US and around the world. Starting today, Women Preferences is expanding nationwide - to cities like New York, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. - as well as in more cities around the world too. "

For years they showed off the luxury Dubai lifestyle. When danger came, many left behind the one thing that loved them unconditionally — their pets.

After Iranian missile strikes in early March 2026, expats rushed to leave Dubai, and hundreds of animals were abandoned. Shelters and rescuers say they were overwhelmed, calling the situation heartbreaking in one of the world’s wealthiest cities.
