(Photo by Aimee Dilger/SOPA Images/LightRocket via Getty Images) TOPEKA, Kan. - Republican legislators in Kansas approved a plan early Friday to end gender-affirming care for transgender youth, capping a week of intensifying efforts to rolling back LGBTQ rights like other states with GOP-controlled legislatures.The Kansas House voted 70-52 to pass a bill requiring the state's medical board to revoke the licenses of doctors who provide gender-affirming care to minors, even though many professionals who deal with transgender youth see such care as vital to preserving their mental health and preventing suicides.

The Senate then voted 23-12 to approve the measure, sending it to Democratic Gov. Laura Kelly.RELATED: Kansas passes transgender bathroom bill; Arkansas approves own version of legislationThe governor is expected to veto it, having promised LGBTQ youth during a Statehouse lobbying day last month that she would protect their rights and reject any measure "that aims to harm or discriminate against you." Supporters were well short of the two-thirds majorities in both chambers needed to override a veto.LGBTQ-rights advocates believe they're seeing a national effort to erase transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming and gender fluid people from American society, at least legally.

Dr. Beth Oller, a family physician in a small northwestern Kansas town who provides gender-affirming care, saw GOP lawmakers going "in search of a dog whistle" to unite their party."This one was a winner because they found it palatable to strip rights from a population that was small and did not affect most of them," she said in an email Thursday.

Fate of Cherry Hill farm uncertain as board nears vote on proposed senior-living complex

CHERRY HILL, N.J. - Cherry Hill’s Zoning Board is expected to decide Thursday night if the Holly Ravine Farm in town should become a massive senior-living complex, a proposal which has sparked controversy.In the hustle and bustle of the busy South Jersey community, the 26-acre farm is an oasis; a patch of land from a time decades ago when Cherry Hill was agricultural. Now, there’s fear the farm will be lost if a proposed 175-unit senior complex is built.Eric Ascalon - a lawyer and longtime Cherry Hill resident - opposes the plan, and said that developing the land would mean "putting the nail in the coffin of a rich part of Cherry Hill’s history." A Texas company is behind the proposal that also includes a 200-space parking lot. MORE LOCAL HEADLINESThe town’s Zoning Board will vote Thursday night on so-called "variances" to allow for the construction on the land presently approved for detached, single family homes.

But in settings like hospitals, I think it still behooves us to try to protect our patients, at least until we know what effect the changes in all other areas of the hospital are going to have on our patients.” In making its decision, Shared Health says it consulted infection prevention and control experts.Masks will still be required for those who are sick and near vulnerable patients, like those in need of a transplant or going through cancer treatments.Masking requirements across Manitoba’s health-care system will be lifted next week in most acute, long-term and community settings.

South Jersey little league team implementing new rule to curb wild behavior from unruly parents

DEPTFORD, N.J. - As youth sports gets more competitive, parents across the country are taking things too far, causing teams to put a stop to wild behavior from unruly parents in the stands. The Deptford Little League has introduced a new rule to keep parents in line. The organization's President, Don Bozzuffi, Vice President, Jim McDevitt, and a parent, Dewey Hatton, joined Good Day Philadelphia to discuss the behavior they are looking to stop. Hatton said he's heard the use of expletives from irate parents in the stands, which has then influenced some children to use foul language on the field. McDevitt, who also serves as an umpire during games, says he has had parents heckle him about calls he's made. Bozzuffi says that while 99% of parents serve as positive reinforcements to the young team members, 1% make it difficult for everyone, especially when violence is involved. RELATED COVERAGEIn an effort to create change, McDevitt says they called in younger umpires who may have a better appeal with the children's parents, but that move was not enough. "After about two and a half three weeks they went, ‘That’s it Don. I had enough.

Citing new evidence, Menendez brothers look to overturn murder convictions

TRIAL OF BROTHERS LYLE & ERIK MENENDEZ, PARRICIDES (Photo by Ted Soqui/Sygma via Getty Images) LOS ANGELES - Potentially reopening one of Southern California's most notorious murder cases, attorneys for Erik and Lyle Menendez filed court papers Wednesday contending that newly surfaced evidence warrants the overturning of the brothers' convictions for killing their parents in 1989.Jose Menendez and his wife, Mary Louise, or "Kitty," were gunned down by their sons in their Beverly Hills mansion in 1989. Erik Menendez, now 52, and Lyle Menendez, now 55, never denied carrying out the killings, but contended they were repeatedly sexually assaulted by their father and feared for their lives.As a result, defense attorneys argued that the brothers "did not harbor the mental state needed for first-degree murder and were therefore guilty of manslaughter."Prosecutors, however, said the killings were financially motivated, pointing to lavish spending sprees by the brothers after the killings and arguing they were guilty of first-degree murder.The brothers' first trial ended with jurors unable to reach verdicts, deadlocking between first-degree murder and lesser charges including manslaughter.
