Judge Closes Down Illegally-Run Abortion Clinic in Alabama
An Alabama judge has released a permanent injunction to close the abortion facility known as New Woman All Women in Birmingham, Alabama that was operating illegally.
On Monday, abortion clinic owner Diane Derzis faces a judge about the accusation she is illegally operating the New Woman All Women abortion clinic in Birmingham, shut down by the state of Alabama since 2012, but now operating illegally. Today’s decision appears here. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/08/judge-closes-down-illegally-run-abortion-clinic-in-alabama/
Last Mississippi Clinic Sends Woman to Hospital After Botched Abortion
An ambulance arrived at the Jackson Women’s Health Organization, the only abortion clinic in Mississippi, at about 12:20 p.m. on Wednesday, August 7, and transported a female patient who emerged from the clinic in Mississippi on a gurney. The pale-skinned, brown-haired woman was covered head to toe with a blanket.

Facebook Group “Virgin Mary Should Have Aborted” Taken Down
Tens of thousands of people complained about a Facebook page that promotes the notion that the Virgin Mary should have had an abortion. Titled “Virgin Mary Should’ve Aborted,” the administrator of the page claims to “explain what really happened in the biblical times, since the bible is full of lies.”
After a massive campaign to contact Facebook and a corresponding hashtag campaign on Twitter, it appears the page has been taken down. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/08/facebook-group-virgin-mary-should-have-aborted-taken-down/

Democrats Supporting Bills to Repeal Power of Obamacare Death Panels
The death panels that are a part of Obamacare are unraveling further — as even some Democrats are signing on to sponsor bills in Congress that would take away the power of the Independent Payment Advisory Board.
As The Hill reports: A wave of vulnerable Democrats over the past three months has signed on to bills repealing the board’s powers, including Sen. Mark Pryor (Ark.) and Reps. Ron Barber (Ariz.), Ann Kirkpatrick (Ariz.), Kyrsten Sinema (Ariz.) and Elizabeth Esty (Conn.). http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/08/democrats-supporting-bills-to-repeal-power-of-obamacare-death-panels/
Toledo, Ohio Now Abortion Free as State Closes Down Capital Care Network
The city of Toledo is finally abortion free as the state of Ohio has closed down the second of two abortion facilities that have closed up shop this year.
Today, Ohio Right to Life obtained documents issued by the Ohio Department of Health relating to a Toledo area abortion clinic violating state regulations.

Family Sues Because Nursing Home Won’t Starve Mother to Death
This is how far the culture of death has come.
I reported earlier about the controversy in Canada in which a family wants a nursing home to stop spoon feeding their mother because she would not want to be kept alive with Alzheimer’s. But no one has the right to be starved. They have the right to refuse medical treatment–for example when sustenance has to be provided by tube. But “artificial nutrition and hydration” may be medical treatment under the law–I would prefer it weren’t–but spoon feeding is humane care that should never be denied. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/08/family-sues-because-nursing-home-wont-starve-mother-to-death/
