The Virginia Board of Health is considering a new set of regulations that have infuriated those who promote abortion.
The new regulations would require abortion clinics to meet the same building standards as newly constructed hospitals. All abortion locations, whether new or previously built, will need to meet the same level of safety for patients regardless of location and size. Continue reading
Arkansas is being called “ground zero” in the fight to protect the lives of unborn babies.
Last week, lawmakers overrode a veto by Governor Mike Beebe to put in place a law that would prohibit most abortions after the 12th week of pregnancy. The law, called the Arkansas Human Heartbeat Protection Act, mandates that an abortion is no longer legal if a heartbeat is detected during an ultrasound at the 12th week of pregnancy.

Excitement continues to rise among both professional and amateur astronomers about Comet ISON, which on Nov. 28 of this year might become one of the brightest comets ever seen, outshining such recent dazzlers as Comet Hale-Bopp (1997) and Comet McNaught (2007).
Fortunately, Comet ISON was discovered 14 months before this perihelion passage — its closest point to the sun — while still distant and faint, thus giving observers time to plan. Another major advantage is that this fine object will be favorably placed for viewing, first in the morning sky before perihelion passage on Nov. 28, and then both in the morning and evening sky afterward.
Star gazers should prepare to potentially see Comet Pan-STARRS this week.
The Pan-STARRS comet, officially known as C/2012 L4 made its debut in the night time sky on March 7, 2013.
Although the comet was at its brightest on March 10 when it was closest to the sun, the comet will be close to the crescent moon Tuesday and Wednesday night. This could provide astronomers and star gazers the opportunity to catch a glimpse of the comet.
