The Alabama Department of Public Health has designed new marriage license forms to accommodate same-sex weddings that are expected to begin Monday. The form has two spaces that read spouse and spouse, instead of bride and groom. A federal judge last month overturned Alabama's gay marriage ban. Same-sex weddings are expected to begin Monday unless the U.S. Supreme Court grants Alabama's request to put the ruling on hold.

The annual Women 2 Women Conference featured business owners and directors from various companies and agencies talking about the challenges and success they've experienced in business.
