The language in the anti-conversion-therapy bill that cleared a key committee in the Maine House of Representatives offers no protection for Christian counselors whom parents might ask to try to guide their children away from same-sex attraction.
Supporters of the bill say coercion and shame should not be used to deal with sexual orientation, and that homosexuality shouldn't be discouraged.
The skeleton of a wooden ship believed to be a sloop from around the time of the American Revolution was exposed by the nor'easter this week on a beach in York, Maine.
The skeleton of the ship was first noticed in 1958, and every so once in a while since then a storm shifts sands enough to expose it again, according to the York Police Department.
