"A lot of the times (during the pregnancy) I would look at the clock and it was 7:11."Although a bit "freaked out," both mom and baby are doing well.Langford says she even plans on telling the convenience store chain about the coincidence. 811

The number of veterans serving in Congress has been declining for decades. Veterans running now say reversing that trend would benefit all Americans. It’s election season and political candidates across the country are working their respective campaign trails, trying to earn your votes. But of all the people running for all the offices in 2020, there’s fewer politicians like these two: current U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal, D-California, and Republican Casper Stockham, who’s running for Congress in Colorado. Both of whom served in branches of the United States military. Carbajal is a former U.S. Marine, serving as a mortarman. “When we serve our country in the military, there’s a common bond, there’s a common purpose,” Carbajal says. Stockham was in the U.S. Air Force, working as a weapons mechanic. “A lot of military people just have a deep-down patriotism,” Stockham says.The last midterm election brought a record number of female veterans to Congress. But a new study from the group 1007

The Senate Finance Committee put big pharmaceutical companies on blast for their sky-high drug prices. Seven drug executives were grilled in a heated exchange with lawmakers, who were questioning their pricing practices. Pharmaceutical company Pfizer has raised the price of the popular diabetes drug Lyrica by 163 percent since 2012. Each of the pharmaceutical companies insisted the high costs is because it takes a lot of money to research and develop better more effective drugs. The Senate committee did not agree. The Big Pharma panel did offer ideas to find solutions to lower drug prices, including passing rebates. Additionally, Merck, as well as the majority of the panel, say they support the stop of price hikes on medicines that have no competition and encourages competition elsewhere. However, Senate members like Maria Cantwell of Washington, say Big Pharma says it wants to solve the issue, but ultimately didn't offer anything worthy to create change. "I think if you guys can't agree that these basic market functions that allow people to buy in bulk or on discount is good ideas for consumers, then I don't think we are going to come up with anything we agree on here,” Cantwell said during the hearing.Lawmakers, including some of those on the Senate Finance Committee, receive funds every year from the pharmaceutical industry. The Center for Responsive Politics found drug companies spent more than 0 million lobbying last year. More can be found on the group’s website opensecrets.org. 1531

This cat has a weight problem. “She’s uncomfortable, she has to lay down,” said Brita Kiffney, the cat's vet at Northshore Veterinary Hospital. “She plays of five, ten minutes if you’re in a good spot and then she’s like, I gotta, I gotta lay down,” said Jason Collins, a vet tech at Northshore. She weighs almost twice as much as a healthy cat should. And it's made her famous. This is Cinderblock. And a few months ago she went viral for something a lot of humans can relate to - refusing to exercise. “I think it’s gone straight to her head. I mean, honestly, she demands like five times more brushing than she used to. It’s wild,” said Jason.He had no idea it would go viral. “I think my wife that night was like it’s got like 7,000 view already,” The video now has over 3.2 million views. A fat cat might be fun to cuddle, but the reality is being overweight is hard for animals. Brita Kiffney, Cinder's vet, knows that all too well. “It certainly leads to pain, contributes to arthritis, decreased lung capacity, promotes diabetes, some liver diseases, pancreatitis, inflammation throughout the body,” Kiffney said. It can lead to a lot of issues, just like it does for humans. “Upwards of 60% of cats and 56% of dogs are considered to be overweight or obese. So I would say that yeah, that’s becoming a bit of an issue,” said Andrea Clewley. She is in charge of training at Trupanion, a company that provides medical coverage for hundreds of thousands of pets across the country. She says weight gain can really sneak up on pet owners. “You may not notice the incremental increase in weight gain and so it may just be a really slow progression over time that you just don’t notice until all of a sudden you may look down one day and you’re like, holy cow, how did that happen?” said Clewley And just like humans, it’s easier to pack on the pounds than lose them. “It’s going to take her a year or more to reach her goal weight,” said Jan Province. She knows it's going to take a while. She works at the reception desk at Northshore Veterinary Hospital. Province and Cinderblock will be roommates once the feline is back down to her fighting weight. Until then, Province will have to read Cinderblock the fan mail she receives at the hospital. “Dear Cinder, we love you and we’re so proud of you. Keep up the good work. Lovingly, Findley Jack and his human Denise,” reads Province. This envelope came with in cash. The Social Media influencer also is being sponsored by Purina for a free year of weight loss cat food. And she also has her own line of merchandise you can find online. But it’s not all perks for Miss Block. She still has a long way to go on her weight loss journey. “If she started at 22, she’s now at about 20.8 lbs, which is great, she has lost some weight,” said Kiffney. But at the hospital, they want her down closer to 10lbs. If her weight loss is successful, she will have lost more than 50% of her body weight. To put it in human terms, it’s like going from 300 lbs down to 150. No easy feat. But Cinder will have to be successful if she wants a healthy life. 3122
