MITCH ANGLE EVANSVILLE, INDIANA
The hospital is gearing up to launch a diabetes prevention program set to begin in two weeks.
The program aims at preventing type two diabetes and will run for a full year free of charge. Those who choose to enroll in the program will learn how lifestyle choices can bring on type two diabetes and how small, but necessary, lifestyle changes can prevent it.
Officials say living a healthier lifestyle will also lower the risk of having a heart attack or stroke.
The program will start on January 15th from 4:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. and will be held in the Deaconess Clinic Downtown.

Otters to celebrate milestone 25th season in 2019
Indiana lawmakers returning to Statehouse for 2019 session
Il for www.theindianalawyer.com
Indiana lawmakers are set to begin their four-month legislative session, facing a tight state budget picture and a possibly contentious debate over adopting a state hate crimes law.
The Indiana House and Senate will meet Thursday afternoon at the Statehouse in Indianapolis to start a session scheduled to last until late April.
The Republican-dominated Legislature must draft a new two-year budget to fund school districts, universities and state agencies such as the troubled Department of Child Services.
Indiana is one of just five states without laws specifically against crimes fueled by biases regarding race, religion and sexual orientation. Conservative legislators have blocked adoption of such an Indiana law for several years, although Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb says it is long overdue.
AG Curtis Hill: Latest court ruling is buzzkill for ‘First Church of Cannabis’
The end of 2018 brought bad news for the “First Church of Cannabis,†a group of marijuana enthusiasts who have spent much of the past three years arguing for the right to use pot as a matter of religious liberty.
Once again, Attorney General Curtis Hill has prevailed in turning back this group’s efforts to be exempted from Indiana’s anti-marijuana statutes.
On Friday Dec. 28, the Indiana Court of Appeals dismissed with prejudice the appeal of this “church,†explaining that the appellants failed to pay a transcript fee as ordered by the court. Further, the court stated, “Appellants have failed to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed.”
Last year, these same marijuana enthusiasts failed to convince a Marion County court that they should be exempted from anti-marijuana statutes on the basis of religious freedom. They later failed to convince the court to reopen their case in light of the Right to Try Act, a recently-passed law that allows terminally ill patients to try investigational treatments.
Following this latest rejection by the Indiana Court of Appeals, the First Church of Cannabis could find itself with few remaining options.
“Laws against the possession, sale and use of marijuana are designed to protect the health, safety and well-being of Hoosiers statewide,†Attorney General Hill said. “Our courts have repeatedly upheld their validity. The devout worshippers of the First Church of Cannabis may find more fertile ground in another state to legally consume their favorite sacrament, but they won’t be lighting up in Indiana.â€
