A weak Euro, strong retail sales, a lone terrorist hits Belgium and coverage to visit a chiropractor? This and more in the week that was in…the Week in Pictures.

Arizona chiropractors say state insurance regulators are failing to require a major health insurer to provide promised coverage, resulting in inadequate reimbursements that are driving some chiropractors out of business.
