National Police Week was started by President John F. Kennedy in 1962 to pay tribute to Law Enforcement offi- cers who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and to voice appreciation for all those who currently serve on the front lines of the battle against crime. Congress also authorized and requested that the President designate May 15 of each year as “Peace Officers Memorial Day,” and the week in which it falls as “National Police Week.” While not legally aligned, it is in the same spirit that Police Week Michigan is launched. Citizen Chair Amy Hawkins commented, “We believe that the majority of Michigan citizens support our Law Enforcement but we have not done the best job at con- veying our support. Michigan’s Officers deserve to hear, see, and feel the support of Michigan’s grateful citizens.” Amy continued, “It is with great excitement we wel- come people to join us at PoliceWeekMichigan.com. We hope that our website will be a central point for citizens to find resources, ideas, and events taking place around the community that honor our Law Enforcement.” It is the hope that this will be the beginning of a move- ment where citizens start to stand up, speak up, and show up in support of the men and women in uniform and all they do to support us throughout the year. The board is forming under the leadership of WJR’s Frank Beckmann and Greenlee Consulting’s Scott Greenlee. Hawkins commented, “This is the beginning of what we hope will be a very big thing!

Testing of Kentucky Senate passes fetal heartbeat abortion bill FRANKFORT, Ky. (AP) – Kentucky lawmakers heard the beating heart of a woman’s unborn baby Thursday as they advanced a bill that would ban most abortions in the state once a fetal heartbeat is detected. The state Senate voted 31-6 to pass the measure, continuing an aggressive push to restrict abortion since Republicans consoli- dated their hold on Ken- tucky’s legislature starting in 2017. Earlier Thursday when a committee reviewed the bill, a preg- nant woman let a room- ful of people hear the heartbeat of her unborn baby via an electronic monitor. The woman, April Lanham, who lives in the district of the bill’s lead sponsor, was at the witness table in the com- mittee room. “That child in her womb is a living human being,” Republican Sen. Matt Castlen, the bill spon- sor, said later. “And all liv- ing human beings have a right to life.” l 8 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2019 HOME & GARDEN THE DAILY GLOBE • YOURDAILYGLOBE.COM HOUSE OF THE WEEK Don’t forget about winter maintenance for your home

The Speedboys had been stuck in the 40s the last three games, a stretch where they won one game and lost two. “Offensively we played much better,” Bessemer coach Richard Matrella said. “I think the big thing that helped us was Tyler (Busch) was very involved in the game tonight. We were able to keep a good pace going, which always helps us. We just shared the ball very well.” Cade Mazzon led Bessemer with 22 points and Busch had 21; he didn’t score in the second half at Ewen-Trout Creek. Caleb Gregoire had 16 to lead the Lakes and Carter Crouch scored 14. Bessemer (11-3, 10-1) hosts Bayfield tonight for a non- conference game.
