Oklahoma on Our Minds
From Team JAB 
Our thoughts go out to all the people in and around Moore, Oklahoma who are suffering through mass destruction. A tornado leveled schools, offices, parks and entire neighborhoods on Monday. It claimed many lives, including children. The devastation is heartbreaking. If you would like to help, CNN has put together a comprehensive list of various relief organizations and what they need HERE. Please keep Moore in your prayers.

Affordable Care and You

Included are certain birth control pills, IUDs, and even Essure permanent birth control, an in-office sterilization procedure that's done without surgery or general anesthesia, giving women an almost immediate return to normal activities.

Is Conventional Schooling Not Working for Your Child?
From Christina Nobbe: REPLY
I meet parents daily who complain of their child struggling in school; falling behind, having trouble focusing ... you name it. I founded New Village Academy for parents who, like me, want more for their children. With only five to six students per teacher, our students in grades 1 to 12 receive lots of help and attention studying customized curriculum and working at their own pace. We repair high schooler's GPAs. It's time for something new and effective! Now accepting registration for 2013-2014 and also our Summer Learning and Fun Camp. For information, call me at 305.321.0031 or click HERE.*
