• A NPR blog has statistics on the percentage of OB/GYNs who provide abortions:

  97% of OB-GYNs have encountered patients wanting an abortion, but only 14% of the doctors perform them, according to a study published today in the journal Obstetrics and Gynecology.

  That finding suggests a smaller percentage of OB-GYNs may be offering abortion services than previous studies have estimated.

• Lisa Graas of the Live Action blog and Wesley Smith discuss Vice President Joe Biden’s recent comments about China’s one-child policy. Smith writes:

  So, he regrets the financial problems caused, but “fully understands” and is not “second guessing” the one child policy-caused blood shedding. Disgraceful.

• A California woman has been arrested for felony hit-and-run after running a red light a hitting a pregnant pedestrian. The accident may have killed the child:

  Brittney Cheeseman, 18, was walking in an intersection at Manchester Boulevard and Market Street about 10:30 p.m. Saturday when she was struck by a vehicle described as a 1996 grey Nissan.

  The Nissan’s driver was traveling east on Manchester and failed to stop at a red light, witnesses told police.

  Cheeseman was taken to a hospital with nonthreatening injuries, said Officer Jonathan Rivers of the Inglewood Police Department. But her 5- or 6-month-old fetus was unresponsive and showed no signs of life, doctors said.

  Police, using a license number provided by witnesses, tracked down the driver, Janine Rachel Mayfield, on Sunday and took her into custody for felony hit-and-run.
