New App Blocks “Annoying” Baby Photos From Facebook Feed

Why TV star Tamera Mowry-Housley Chose Celibacy Before Marriage
I have a confession to make. Although I’m not much of a TV watcher a certain celebrity has caught my attention. Tamera Mowry-Housley is my favorite person on the screen these days. Her sweet personality, love for family and strong values make her a shining light in the midst of entertainment’s darkness.
Reality TV personality Tamera and her sister Tia were once the adorable and energetic stars of the 90’s hit show, “Sister, Sister”. Tamera is all grown up now, married to Fox news correspondent Adam Housley and mom to a son named Adan. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/11/why-tv-star-tamera-mowry-housley-chose-celibacy-before-marriage/

Family of Boy Born Without Eyes Rejects Abortion, Overcomes Pro-Abortion Hate
Rarely will you find a video that will grab your heart—and hold on more firmly—than “The Right Choice.”
It is Christian’s story—the son of Lacey and Chris Buchanan—a tender but not sugarcoated recollection of how the couple moved from joy at discovering Lacey was pregnant, to frantic worry that “something was wrong” with their unborn son, to a safe birth in 2011 after which they discovered Christian was blind.
Hey Pro-Lifers: To Change Hearts and Minds on Abortion Quit Preaching to the Choir
Let’s be honest. To truly be successful advocates for life, we can’t just spend our time “preaching to the choir.”
We must step outside our comfort zone to reach those who are on the other side. This is no easy task when you’re faced with individuals who hurl obscenities, act combative or are willfully defiant. But if we’re to change hearts and minds, we must first try to understand the motives of those who are for abortion. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/11/hey-pro-lifers-to-change-hearts-and-minds-on-abortion-quit-preaching-to-the-choir/

Why You Should Adopt a Special Needs Child: 130,000 Are Waiting for You
The United States may be one of the most privileged nations in the world, but there are still over 130,000 children in foster care eagerly awaiting a stable home, loving parents, and a chance at happiness.
The struggle to find a family is increased when the child is categorized with the stigmatizing label of “special needs.” Whatever the reasons children may be branded with this euphemism, potential parents can be scared away with our culture’s often unforgiving demands for so-called normalcy. http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/11/why-you-should-adopt-a-special-needs-child-130000-are-waiting-for-you/

Women Oppose Abortions of Unborn Babies Who Can Feel Pain
New polling by Quinnipiac and Washington Post-ABC News and others shows a surprising number of women agree with banning abortion after 20 weeks gestation. News stories highlighting the gruesome and unscrupulous practices of abortionists such as Kermit Gosnell and Steven Brigham have been eye openers for many women.
More and more women now see good reasons to support limits on abortion, and an even earlier limit than the 24 week line drawn by the Supreme Court.http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/11/women-oppose-abortions-of-unborn-babies-who-can-feel-pain/

Iowa Board of Medicine to Write Rules Limiting Dangerous Webcam Abortions
Is a “web-cam abortion” – where an abortionist safely ensconced behind a desk at a big city clinic simply clicks a computer mouse to remotely unlock a drawer with a dose of dangerous abortifacient pills for a woman he’s never personally examined at a location maybe hundreds of miles away – a legitimate application of what has come to be called telemedicine . http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/11/iowa-board-of-medicine-to-write-rules-limiting-dangerous-webcam-abortions/
