Birth Control Works. Who Knew?
Over the past six years, Colorado has conducted one of the largest ever real-life experiments with long-acting birth control. If teenagers and poor women were offered free intrauterine devices and implants that prevent pregnancy for years, state officials asked, would those women choose them?

They did in a big way, and the results were startling. The birthrate for teenagers across the state plunged by 40 percent from 2009 to 2013, while their rate of abortions fell by 42 percent, according to the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment.

After the disconcertingly difficult year they had had, it of course took them just 16 minutes to score twice as many goals as anybody ever had in a Women's World Cup final.

I am shopping around for a new location. I love the current executive suites except for location and the fact I am about to melt from the heat. I am looking for something within walking distance of a downtown area and air conditioned. I have suffered enough. lol

The pension department here awarded me a lifetime pension (no appeal) from my "esposo" which now will enable me to live a better lifestyle on a monthly basis. I love Costa Rica.

Any gift amount will help with my move. My goal is $1500.
