Sue Davis urged stronger research support noting diabetes kills about 300000 annually and remains a major health challenge with the goal to fund decisive advances. Jered Davis a third grader diagnosed last year shared how families unite to combat the disease. The main aim remains raising funds for research to end complications and seek a cure, with JDF meetings every second Tuesday at the Federal Savings building in Bakersfield.

Puritans Lock Church Clergy From Civil Rule in 1647
The 17th century New England Puritans faced clergy involvement in civil law. Ministers intruded on government matters, prompting a 1647 statute declaring it a punishable offense. By the 18th century restrictions eased, clergy served as civil officials, while the rest remained bound by secular law.
