Once officials at the Columbus meet determined that Hayes had violated the excessive celebration rules, the entire 4×100 meter squad was disqualified and effectively barred from the state championships.

The $500,000 Housecleaning

When a Os and Jenny Guinness discovered that their townhouse was infested with mold, it was the start of an arduous, expensive multiyear cleanup

Written by Sanette Tanaka, WSJ | Sunday, May 12, 2013

In 2008, Ms. Guinness and her husband, Os, discovered that their townhouse in a suburb of Washington was contaminated with stachybotrys—also known as black mold.

My Inheritance from My Mother

A mother in her final days in a nursing home and the impact she made by intentionally and prayerfully loving others as herself despite failing health

Written by Gary Welton | Saturday, May 11, 2013

The first time I ate with Mom at The Home I looked at her, held her hand, and asked her to say grace. I expected her to thank God for the food, and I expected her to pray for her own needs as she recovered from surgery. But instead, I heard her say, “Father, help... Continue Reading

Alexandra Goode has rescued more than 250 orphans from Russia

Written by Shelly Slater, WFAA | Saturday, May 11, 2013

By day, she dug mass graves for the dead. By night, she hoped to lie in one herself. “One night, I crawled on my bed and prayed God would take my life,” Goode said. “Instead, what He did… He didn’t take my life… He gave me a new heart.” Goode found God again, and with... Continue Reading

Gosnell Trial Exposes Planned Parenthood Horrors

There is a big difference between what Planned Parenthood says is their mission and what they actually do

Written by Janice Shaw Crouse | Wednesday, May 8, 2013

The Gosnell trial illustrates the unsanitary practices that have been in allowed in largely unregulated clinics owing to their politically-protected status; these conditions endanger women’s health in Planned Parenthood’s sleazy mission of providing abortion as birth control and abortion-on-demand anytime, for any reason. Nurses who worked in Planned Parenthood facilities have testified, under oath, about... Continue Reading

Written by Alan F.H. Wisdom | Tuesday, May 7, 2013

People who grow tomatoes in a garden patch may regard the endeavor as a mere seasonal pastime; however, panelists at a Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) conference discerned deeper theological and political significance.

Roman Catholic Scholar Converts to Evangelical Faith

Jean Calvin, 25, of Noyon, a leading scholar of the classics and law student in the University of Paris, has reportedly converted to the evangelical cause.

Written by R. Scott Clark, Heidelblog | Sunday, May 5, 2013

Calvin has apparently joined the so-called Protestant movement begun about 13 years ago at Worms by the German monk Luther.
