Ann Arbor woman endorses 'silver alert' legislation after death of elderly father
By MATT WALTERS
Capital News Service
LANSING - An Ann Arbor woman whose elderly father died after walking away from a community center is among those pushing for a new law that would require law enforcement agencies to issue a public alert when a person 60 or older is reported missing and is believed to be incapable of returning home on his or her own.
Jennie Stinson, of Ann Arbor, has advocated for “Silver Alert” legislation since her father, Norris Lee, died last September.
She said that she supports the proposed bill because it could help other families avoid a similar tragedy.

Medicare could cover tests for soaring STD rate in senior citizens
By BILL TOLAND, Pittsburgh Post-Gazette
Taxpayers could soon be picking up the tab for new sexually transmitted disease screenings for seniors, as well as other Medicare recipients.
More than a decade after Viagra and its ilk began helping boomers and seniors to enjoy conjugal relations more frequently, sexually transmitted disease rates are up dramatically in the over-40 age bracket.
And while wisdom is supposed to come with age, studies have also shown that men over 50 -- regardless of marital status -- are six times less likely to use a condom than men in their 20s, partly because, by that age, they (and their partner) are less worried about pregnancy.
Add in improved senior health and a higher divorce rate, and the result nearly seems inevitable: According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, STD rates are up by almost 50 percent for men over 40 between 1996 and 2008.

Jennifer James: January 2010 Employee of the Month
Jennifer has learned very quickly what it takes to make our department be successful. She is dependable, upbeat, friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. She is our go to person when we have questions dealing with Sales Force, agency contracts etc. and is our bridge between SIA and the sales reps in the field. She helps us understand how what we do daily in SIA affects the sales world so it all comes together as one and we totally understand the entire picture. She is always willing to learn new things and help with the innovation and streamlining of new ideas to help our department run more efficiently. She's the glue that holds the Medical Monitoring Sales department together, the spirit and spunk that keeps the administrative side of our lives bearable, the "yes" when all else is "no." She makes sure our work is completed and tightly buttoned into place, which ensures everyone has what they need. She is the ultimate administrator/secretary to us all.
