Planned Parenthood Ignored Instructions to Call 911 In Tonya Reaves Abortion Death
Planned Parenthood Ignored Instructions to Call 911 In Tonya Reaves Abortion Death :Operation Rescue: Operation Rescue has obtained a recording and computer aided dispatch transcript that indicates on the same day that Tonya Reaves died from hemorrhage caused by a uterine perforation after a second trimester abortion, the Chicago Planned Parenthood that killed her ignored instructions from an emergency dispatcher to directly call 911 in the event of an emergency in order to prevent wasting precious time.
Tonya Reaves received her fatal abortion at 11:00 a.m. on July 20. As Reaves lay hemorrhaging, an employee called to report that elsewhere in the clinic a 16-year old patient was “physically assaulted” by her mother. The 911 Dispatcher is heard admonishing the Planned Parenthood worker for calling 311, which caused a delay in dispatching aid to the scene.

Appeals Court Blocks Arizona Abortion Law
Appeals Court Blocks Arizona Abortion Law - WSJ.com: A federal appeals court temporarily halted a controversial Arizona law that would ban most abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy. The decision is a victory for abortion-rights advocates who have sought to block the enforcement of the new law, which was scheduled to take effect on Thursday.
The law, which was passed by the state's Republican legislature and signed by Republican Gov. Jan Brewer in April, would criminalize most abortions after 20 weeks except in medical emergencies. The decision comes just two days after a federal judge refused to block the statute, saying it didn't impose a "substantial obstacle" to the procedure. The judge said it was consistent with standards set by federal courts, and that Arizona had the right to enact such a law.

A biblical solution to the maternity care crisis (and much more)
A biblical solution to the maternity care crisis (and much more) | American Vision: One of the greatest but most overlooked needs in America is maternity care for inner-city women. When many of these women become pregnant, they are often pressured into considering an abortion. Even if they choose to keep their baby, the quality of maternity care they receive is often compromised and many women do not receive any prenatal care before going to the emergency room for labor and delivery.

Study: Proof That We Sexually Objectify Women
Study: Proof That We Sexually Objectify Women - Lindsay Abrams - The Atlantic: Few would argue that the objectification of women is a real thing -- and a real problem -- but as yet there's been no cognitive explanation for it in a literal sense. Do we really look at women differently than we do men, and are they actually objectified in the eye -- and brain -- of the beholder?

Just say no: Why abstinence is the better way to go
Just say no: Why abstinence is the better way to go | LifeSiteNews.com: Sexual Risk Avoidance (SRA), abstinence, truly lowers the rates of sexually transmitted infections and unintended teenage pregnancies as opposed to comprehensive sex education (CSE), which only focuses on reducing these risks.
Editor: Teaching young people to "just say no" is good in that it's like the parental instructions of Proverbs 1:8-9 -- "a graceful ornament on your head, and chains about your neck." But as experience has shown, young people -- especially Christians -- must also be encouraged to appropriate these lessons for themselves, maturing to the point (as described in Prov. 2:10) where "wisdom enters your heart, and knowledge is pleasant to your soul." See also Why Unmarried Christians are Having Sex and Sex and Character. And, as though it needed to be said, Why Churches Shouldn't Push Contraceptives to Singles.

SOM - State of Michigan's Infant Mortality Reduction Plan Released , Creating a healthier Michigan means ensuring babies survive: In Michigan, 5 out of every 1,000 Caucasian babies and 7 out of every 1,000 Hispanic babies die before their first birthdays. Among Michigan's African-American population, that rate is 14 out of every 1,000 babies born. To address infant mortality and the large disparities that exist in our state, the Michigan Department of Community Health today released Michigan's Infant Mortality Reduction Plan.
Editor: The plan includes a call for an expansion of Michigan's abstinence program, The Michigan Model, to additional communities. The Michigan Model promotes abstinence plus information about contraception (see pages 14 and 21 of the plan).

A Fact Ignored by the WHO
A Fact Ignored by the WHO | First Things: “Experts do not know all the elements that can set off early labor.” The Times quoted an author of the WHO report: “Even after controlling for risk factors like age, poverty, smoking, obesity and diabetes, ‘we really don’t have an explanation for what’s behind it.’”
Unfortunately, one significant, and modifiable, risk factor for preterm birth was completely ignored by the WHO report: prior termination of pregnancy. There is a large and growing body of scientific data documenting this risk factor for pre-term birth. More than 120 peer-reviewed studies, from more than a dozen countries, have found a statistically significant increased risk of preterm birth or low-birth weight after a termination of pregnancy.
