  • Lunch & Learn

    Cortney Ofstad|Sep 12, 2013

    IRONWOOD — Women attended a “lunch and learn” at Aspirus Grand View Wednesday to learn health tips. Dr. Tarek Khalife, of the obstetrics and gynecology department, offered a “crash course” on women’s health. The event is part of a series of lectures that have been taking place over the past three years through Aspirus. “We try to do these every quarter,” Dave Sim, marketing manager for AGV, said. “We try to find topics that are of interest to people, and come up with providers who have the time...

  • Nation pauses on 9/11 to pay tribute to victims

    Sep 12, 2013

Perhaps unwittingly, even Apple’s software boss Craig Federighi alluded to this potential problem while he was bragging about iOS 7 at the com...

  • Legislator's letter on insurance 'misleading'

    Sep 12, 2013

    To the Editor: I found Michigan state Rep. Scott Dianda’s (D-Calumet) letter to the editor in the Aug. 30 Daily Globe to be very misleading. The reasons are: — No-fault isn’t the issue; unlimited medical benefits are the problem. — Michigan is one of 13 states with a no-fault law. — We’re the only one with an unlimited PIP Benefit. — 2012 the average medical claim in Michigan was over $45,000. The next highest state, New Jersey, is a no-fault state also. Their average was $17,000. — Every other state a person has the choice on how much in med...
