The Beaverton Dentist Who Makes Everyone Smile
Founded by Beaverton dentist, Heath Lampee DMD. Beaverton Smile Center is Beaverton and Portland premiere dentist office for cosmetic dentistry, implant dentures, dental implants, sedation dentistry, and general dentistry. With the health of your teeth and smile in mind, we can meet all of your needs. Tooth by tooth, Dr. Lampee can help you smile again. And yes, you will finally enjoy coming to the dentist, because you will love our welcoming atmosphere and caring touch.
This dentist Beaverton OR is dedicated to the comfort of our patients. Go ahead… watch a movie, dip your hands in warm paraffin, have a chocolate truffle. You may not even remember you are at the dental office. Aside from the best creature comforts, this Beaverton dentist offers the best technologies available today. Every day, his precise hands create new smiles, cure people of dreadful pain, and ensure the highest reputation of all dental professionals.
For most people, going to visit their dentist is not on their list of fun things to do, and yet it plays an important role in maintaining your health. Dentists are about more than finding cavities… they can also save your life. Like most health advice, going to visit your dentist is all about prevention.
Cosmetic dentistry can provide an instant transformation in your smile and can repair issues that you were born with or from an accident. Problems like yellowing of teeth, uneven teeth, discoloration, stains, gaps, missing teeth, and bad gums can easily be resolved by cosmetic dentistry. Teeth whitening has become very popular. We are seeing a rising demand for cosmetic surgery these days and as a cosmetic dentist (not just general dentistry), Dr Lampee, uses only proven and safe innovations in this field.
Sedation dentistry is a safe and effective way for you to receive the dental care you need. Many people avoid going to the dentist for a variety of fears, even when they desperately need care. Sedation dentistry gives you an option to receive the care you need while avoiding the concerns that are preventing you from going. Sedation dentistry offers you a worry free experience that leads to a beautiful smile.
Dental implants are transforming the field of cosmetic dentistry and make it much easier for patients who are missing their teeth to have a great smile. In the past people had to rely solely on restorative methods like bridges and dentures to rebuild their smiles. While these are still viable methods, dental implants are much stronger than these options and are a more permanent solution to teeth loss. In fact, there are many cases where dental implants are the only logical choice for restoring your smile. And since implants end up looking and feeling like real teeth, you will be able to speak and eat with confidence once again.
This Beaverton Dentist Is Unique
Our dental office has a unique dental spa like atmosphere for a dentist office. Many of our patients claim that being pampered while in our dental spa like environment makes them look forward to their appointment and seems to go so much faster and with ease.
As you can see, we are much more than a general dentistry practice, and our goal is to make your experience in our office the most pleasant and surprising you've ever had. Let us know how we can do this for you.
Our dentist office is now accepting new patients. Emergencies welcome. Call today to schedule an appointment with this Beaverton dentist.

In the nightcap, Coldwater got up early 3-0 after one inning but Harper Creek scored 7 runs in the bottom of the second to take control of the contest.

Attend the July 17 Jamaica Bay Public Meeting!!
Posted Jul 4, 2014, 6:35 PM by Arie GilbertThe National Park Service has announced the beginning of the planning process for the West Pond at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge. As you are probably aware, the West Pond was breached in October 2012 during Hurricane Sandy. The breach opened the pond to the tides and destroyed the valuable freshwater habitat that was one of New York State's premier birding destinations. I am writing to alert you the upcoming opportunities for public comment on the future of the West Pond, and to ask that you reach out to inform your members. Please feel free to use the material below in your outreach.
Birders must speak up to ensure the pond is restored to support birds and wildlife. The Birders' Coalition for Gateway, in which NYSOA is participating, has taken the position that the pond should be restored to the habitat values that existed after the West Pond was created in the 1950s. This includes a large freshwater pond and emergent wetlands with water level regulation to encourage seasonal shorebird and waterfowl use; and open dune to encourage tern and Diamondback Terrapin nesting. High salt marsh is uncommon in Jamaica Bay and is another habitat element of interest for restoration of the West Pond. Currently the breach in the dike of the West Pond has turned the pond into a mudflat and caused the destruction of vegetation that is not salt tolerant. The former open dune area, called Terrapin Point, is overgrown into a dense thicket due to years of neglect by the Park Service. Thus the area has virtually no habitat value and does not contribute to ecosystem diversity.
So what can birders do?
- Attend the public scoping meeting on July 17 at the Jamaica Bay Wildlife Refuge (see information attached >here<).
- Sign the Birders' Coalition's petition at http://tinyurl.com/WestPondPetition
- Write to Gateway National Recreation Area Superintendent Jennifer Nersesian and other public officials and tell them you want the West Pond restored for birds and wildlife.
Additional information on the public scoping process and the July 17 public meeting is attached. Public comments are being accepted through July 30, 2014. The full recommendations for restoration of the West Pond by the Birders' Coalition for Gateway can be found on New York City Audubon's web site at http://tinyurl.com/NYCAudubonWestPond
A variety of interest groups will undoubtedly be very vocal in the upcoming scoping process. The National Park Service has a history of giving priority to active recreational interests at the expense of wildlife in the Gateway National Recreation Area.
It is critical that birders participate and make their views known!

-- Robert Preidt
WEDNESDAY, Oct. 27 (HealthDay News) -- College football players'
times on a standard agility drill were 3 percent faster on
artificial field turf than on natural grass, but there was little
difference in their times for the 40-yard dash, a new study has
The study included 24 players whose average on the 40-yard dash
turned out to be 5.34 seconds on field turf and 5.33 seconds on
natural grass. Their average on the pro-agility shuttle test was
4.49 seconds on field turf and 4.64 seconds on natural grass.
"It appears that straight-ahead sprint speed is similar between field turf and natural grass, but change-of-direction speed may be significantly faster on field turf," Graydon L. Gaines, of Truman State University in Kirksville, Mo., and colleagues wrote in the October issue of the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research.
The study authors said the lack of difference in 40-yard dash
times was surprising. Field turf produces less slippage between the
shoe and surface and should be expected to produce faster sprint
times. But the results may have been affected by differences in the
shoe sole and stud configuration used in the study, the researchers
The investigators also noted that reduced slippage associated
with field turf may increase an athlete's risk of injury while
making sudden direction changes, "although evidence for this is
currently lacking."

You can't price colleges like cars. Few pay the 'sticker' price and there are lots of ways to get discounts.
This post comes from Stacy Johnson at partner site Money Talks News.
Judging by the headlines, it's easy to believe the cost of college puts it out of reach for all but the most affluent. According to the College Board, average annual tuition at a four-year private college now tops $26,000. If you just look at the sticker price, four years at a private university approaches the cost of a Rolls Royce.
- Bing:Most expensive cars
But that doesn't mean only the rich need apply. While the sticker price may be $26,000, the College Board adds that the average price actually paid at those private colleges is less than $9,000. How can that be?
Get your stuff from Point A to Point B without spending a fortune.
This Deal of the Daycomes fromKelli B. Grant at partner site SmartMoney.
Packing this time of year isn't limited to summer vacations. More Americans than ever are gearing up for a move.
- Bing:Moving company scams
Roughly 16.7 million households move annually, according to the Census Bureau, and a little less than half do so in the summer months. Last year, that added up to more than 37 million people, up from slightly more than 35 million in 2008.
Does that mean summer is the most expensive time of year to move?
Georgia has had the most bank failures since 2000, edging out Illinois. Who knew?
This post comes from Jim Wang at partner blog Bargaineering.
I really enjoy trivia posts and had a lot of fun researching facts to include in my "50 fun facts about bank failures" post, so I thought I'd bring it back. This time I wanted to cut out all the other stuff, like FDIC insurance facts and "first bank failure" type facts, and just look at the list of failures themselves.
The statistics below are based on the FDIC's list of failed banks, and we used data going back to 2000.

- The greatest number of failed banks in one day was nine on Oct. 30, 2009:
I thought the decision to eliminate pay TV from my life would be a simple one. How wrong I was.
After months of wavering, I have finally pulled the plug. I called DirecTV and put my service on hold for six months. (OK. I didn't officially cancel; more on that wussy move below.)
Why did I get rid of pay TV, a fixture in my life for decades? Actually, I'm not the only one.
The settlement of a similar suit required Costco to install new pumps that deliver more fuel when gas is over a certain temperature.
This post comes from Jon Hood at partner site ConsumerAffairs.com.
A Kansas federal judge has granted class-action status to two lawsuits alleging that multiple retailers are ripping off consumers by selling them "hot fuel."
The ruling by U.S. District Judge Kathryn Vratil allows the suits -- which involve 12 separate retailers -- to proceed.
What is hot fuel? Simply put, it's a matter of chemistry. Since fuel is a liquid, as its temperature increases, so does its volume. That means that hotter gas has less energy than it would at lower temperatures, and that consumers thus drive off with less usable fuel in their tanks.
Couples who accrue consumer debt are much more likely to divorce, research shows, no matter how much they make.
Are couples who rack up a lot of consumer debt more likely to divorce?
They indeed are, according to research by Jeffrey Dew, an assistant professor at Utah State University, who found that couples with no assets are 70% more likely to divorce than couples who had just $10,000 in assets.
A recession, or any financial hardship, can be a treacherous time for a relationship. In these times, Sharon Anne Waldrop wrote at Mint.com, "financial infidelity is the new adultery."
If you needed another reason to live below your means and avoid consumer debt, be warned that the fate of your relationship is intertwined with the state of your finances. Cheating with your credit card can be as corrosive as cheating with another man or woman.
Proposed legislation would limit how much credit card companies can charge merchants who accept their cards. Is this a good thing?
This guest post comes from "vh" at Funny about Money:
Every now and again, the credit union sends out a mass e-mailing to lobby members to ask elected representatives to vote this way or that on matters that affect credit unions in specific and banking in general. Normally I think: Yup yup yup! What's good for my credit union is good enough for me -- and I do as I'm told. This time, though, they're asking us to weigh in on the "interchange legislation" that is part of the proposed Financial Regulatory Reform Act.
And I'm not so sure.
My friend says he wants to change, he says he's learned his lesson from his bankruptcy, but his actions say otherwise.
This post comes from J.D. Roth at partner blog Get Rich Slowly.
I've been stewing over something for the past few days, and I'm finally ready to write about it.
I'm not a fan of judging others and their actions. Like Atticus Finch, I believe you never really know a person until you stand in his shoes and walk around in them. But I'm human. Like everyone, there are times I can't help passing judgment. And although I know that judging others isn't productive, sometimes I'm at a loss to do anything else.
Rock bottom
I had dinner with my buddy Michael recently. He is moving back to Portland after several years away, and his financial life is a mess. He's had a rough couple of years:
- He lost his home to foreclosure.
- He lost his job.
- His wife is out of work, too.
- And, last month, he filed for bankruptcy.
Not all of his problems are due to the economy. He's brought plenty of woe upon himself due to a typical consumer lifestyle. He knows that.
Over a meal of Southern-style fried chicken -- my treat -- we talked a lot about his financial situation. We've chatted some in the past, but I never felt as if what I said made much of an impact.

This was my weekly print column from a week ago. For some reason, it never posted. So here it is:
FM radio stations typically face two options when it comes to morning radio: focus on music or focus on personalities.
The former strategy is low cost, low risk, modest reward. Hip-hop station 95.5/The Beat and rock station 97.1/The River emulate this philosophy well, playing 10 to 11 songs an hour in the mornings while keeping gab to a minimum.
The latter strategy is high risk, but potentially high reward. The Bert Show on top 40 station Q100 and the Regular Guys on Rock 100.5, which play little or no music, are the financial engines for those particular stations, with deep listener loyalty that's hard to duplicate.
New dance-pop station Groove 105.7, which boogies from disco to Prince to Lady Gaga, last week launched a personality-packed syndicated morning show led by veteran jock Elvis Duran. The high-energy show features phone pranks, celebrity gossip and topics such as the merits of spanking your child and getting into a fight to defend your girl's honor. Mornings still feature tunes, but just five or six an hour.
"More music" fans on the AJC Radio and TV Talk blog were not pleased. "If I wanted to hear mindless banter," wrote Frank Butler, "there are plenty of morning talk show idiots in this market to choose from… Sadly, what made 105.7 different is now suddenly gone… and so am I."
The downside to music: competition isn't just another radio station but Pandora or people's iPods. Personalities are unique.
Groove program director and on-air jock Duncan (he only goes by one name) based his decison on Duran's track record. "He's done well in other markets," he said, "and has been a top show in New York for 14 years."
Syndication is a product of our times. It's usually cheaper and easier to launch than local morning shows. Atlanta is littered with recent local failures such as Zakk Tyler on Dave FM and the Morning Mess on Star 94.
For morning shows with no recognizable name, it can take two or more years to build a sizable audience. That was the case with the Bert Show and the Regular Guys. "You have to give us a chance," said Duran, who worked in Atlanta briefly at Z93 in the late 1980s when it was top 40.
But the Groove is going to have a tough time breaking people's habits in a brutally competitive market. Competing teams such as Cindy & Ray on Star 94, Steve & Vikki at B98.5 and the Bert Show have been around for years.
Duncan said he isn't expecting Duran to take off immediately. "We're kind of early in the station's growth cycle," he said. "It's hard to say which choice is better. You go with your best educated guess. But there are far more examples of shows like Elvis winning than examples of straight up music."

radio station is great
the morning show sucks!
I listen to 97.1 or cd's on the way to work.
I posted on 105.7's web site but of course I have not heard back. I challenged them to put up a poll on the site asking people what they thought. I guess they are scared to hear the truth. Maybe dumb jokes and prank phone calls work in NY….but this is ATL. All we want is music. And before anyone ask…yes I gave the show a chance and listened the first week. It sucked all 5 days!!!!!!!
January 26th, 2010
12:09 pm
I haven't heard the show in Atlanta, but I remember it well from my days in New York. Can't say I'm likely to listen, but It's great to see them here and I wish them luck. If the Bert show can make it here, Elvis definitely has a potential audience in Atlanta.
January 26th, 2010

I which the stationed would have stayed latin with Viva 105.7! Unfortunately now this station basically plays the same songs as Q100. Like ATL needed ANOTHER one of those.

Music, traffic, a little bit if news. Maybe a funny gag every now and then. That would work. Love the station in the afternoon, wish I loved it in the morning.

Please shut up. I enjoyed the station A LOT MORE when it was music only.
January 27th, 2010
12:51 pm
Bad move, Groove. You are almost the best station in Atlanta, except for mornings, in which now you are among the many worst stations in Atlanta. That's right, sadly, ATL's morning radio shows are very weak, and the Groove's new offering adds to that weakness.
January 27th, 2010
8:30 pm
Scarier, I think, are the people who enjoy "phone pranks, celebrity gossip and topics such as the merits of spanking your child and getting into a fight to defend your girl's honor."
I have LOVED 105.7 for the past few months but now, well … I just won't listen in the morning. Hope someone making the decisions over there trolls the blogs and see that most people feel the same way.
January 28th, 2010
4:44 pm
ooh phone pranks?!! i'll definitely listen now!!!

I'm SO lovin' The Groove (Atlanta!). Takes me back to my "Z93″ days… One of the most hilarious eras of my life (LOL — gotta be a friend to understand that)! Fun stuff! LOVE IT.

I have been aware of the beneficial effect that Royal Jelly can have on acne for some time now, and took it for a while back when I was about 14. However, I had forgotten about it until reading some info in a nutrition book, 'You are what you eat', by Dr. Gillian McKeith, recommending it for acne treatments.
Here is the extract from her book:
Bee Superfoods

|The Bee by-products, essentially those substances produced by bees, have exceptional healing powers
Royal jelly
The Queen bee lives almost exclusively on royal jelly; and lives about 40 times longer than the rest of the bees. It's packed with a wonderful range of nutrients essential for boosting energy levels and combating stress.
Researchers have discovered royal jelly contains an antibiotic almost a quarter as active as penicillin, but without the side effects. They also found that royal jelly halts the growth of bacteria that causes spots and stomach bugs. I prescribe royal elly for patients wanting to conceive a baby. And boy has that been successful! It comes in liquid and capsules or royal jelly paste.
When you see bees busy at work in your garden, this is what they're collecting. It's a sticky material from the buds and bark of mostly poplar and fir trees. the bees use it to coat the outside of the hive for sterilization. Any predator entering their domain is stung to death, and embalmed with propolis to prevent decay. Propolis prevents bacteria from multiplying in an organism, so can strenghten our immune system. Propolis also maintains and enhances the essential healthy bacteria. As a result, it is used to improve acne, skin ailments, cold sores, and even arthritis because of its anti-fungal, antiseptic and anti-inflammatory qualities. you can get propolis lozenges and tablets, or in liquid form.
This sounds extremely interesting, to me. i am reluctant to try it at the moment due to insufficient finances! But I was wondering if anyone else has any experience with either of these two 'bee superfoods' in treating acne and helping wound healing?
Here are some links I found discussing the products:
Here's a site I found that is selling it: http://www.apitherapy.biz/propolis/
And, to provide a bit of balance and to please BenKweller, ( ) a negative discussion of them at Quackwatch! http://www.quackwatc...cs/DSH/bee.html

If you buy it, get them from here. These products are raw and organic. Fast shipping too.
Posted 14 September 2004 - 10:40 AM
psst...I was trying to hold off on this for when I mentioned natural estrogens, but since you asked, Propolis is also antiinflammatory, anti-androgenic, and estrogenic! So if you aren't allergic to it and don't mind that it's an animal product, go for it! ;-)
Posted 14 September 2004 - 10:49 AM
I don't want to rain on anyone's parade, but propolis and royal jelly never worked for me at all. I did take high doses of both.
But that doesn't mean it won't work for others.......

LOL, yeah it does go that way huh. Prescriptions do or don't, supplements do or don't, and yes even diet does or doesn't. Our bodies decide which it prefers, not us =/
Anyway, Denise I was thinking about taking the L-glutamine to help heal my possible leaky gut. Think 3 - 5 years on 1800mg - 2400mg of Motrin/Ibuprofen usually with no food or milk would qualify me as a candidate? Hey those menstrual pains were horrible to me and in the end it was changing my diet that eliminated them...wish I knew that when I was 10. Anyway, I know that you have MSG sensitivity and I've been researching a bit and the two seem to different enough that L-glutamine wouldn't cause the same problems. Was this your experience?
Posted 14 September 2004 - 12:29 PM
Hi SweetJade: I didn't seem to have any problems at all with taking high doses of l-glutamine. But I also took it with aloe vera juice, which is very soothing to the intestinal tract and promotes healing of leaky gut syndrome also.

This was my first attempt at rugelach too and I found the process time consumming but worth it. The dough was very easy to make. Be sure to use flour when rolling it otherwise it will be sticky. I baked them on parchment paper which worked wonderfully since the filling does come out. They lifted right off. I made some with chocolate (I used a dark chocolate spread but Nutella work well too) with crushed nuts. Be sure to roll out the dough fairly thin. I found that to be key. Once the filling has been spread, I suggest rolling the entire thing and then cutting it using a pizza cutter. They come out log shaped that way but they still look nice and it is less time consumming. Thanks for the great recipe.
They were too hard and fell apart. Otherwise okay.

This was my first attempt at Rugelach. I can't believe how good it is! I used a different preserve for each ball of dough and they were all excellent! My only advice is to heavily grease your cookie sheets. The non-stick cookie sheets are really not effective. The preserves bubble over and stick to the tray. Other than that, these were easy and tasted fabulous!
I've made these Rugelach about 3 times already and they are always such a hit, now that Christmas is nearing am going to be making these non stop to give away as gifts. It really is time consuming but if you do have the time you must make them, they are so elegant and delicious theres not a single person that won't enjoy them especially if you make different flavors I usually make apricot, strawberry, rasberry and chocolate (I melt Godiva bittersweet chips in the microwave and just add a splash of heavy cream)
These are great ! I made the chocolate israeli version ,which I happen to enjoy, because they had cinnamon to the cocoa. I used low fat cream cheese to cut down on some of the fat. I finished them off with powdered sugar... YUM
This is the same recipe that is listed on the Food network by Ina Garten. And it is very good.
De-lish. I used raspberry jam and chopped pecans for my filling, but the top coating is great!
Yummy! I love rugelach and anything with apricots. So, these are the best rugelach ever! The dough was a snap to make. You're done before you know it. The assembly requires a bit of patience, but I find the process relaxing ( as long as the kids are busy doing something else!). I also had to sub dried mango for the dried apricots, as I realized I was out of apricots half way through ;) No problem, mango went great with the apricot jam. You should definitely give these a try.

Winter 2012, Volume 20, Number 1
Suicide, the Nation's 10th leading cause
of death1, is a preventable public health
problem. Family members and friends
of someone having suicidal thoughts may
not know how to help, but SAMHSA and
its grantees are using social media and
smartphone apps to help them connect
people to lifesaving services.
In December 2011, SAMHSA debuted a
first-of-its-kind service in collaboration
with Facebook and the SAMHSA-funded
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline. The new service enables Facebook
users to report a suicidal comment they
see posted by a friend on the site and help
connect that person to immediate help.
Two days after the program launched, a
grateful user noted, "I just hope you know,
this could save millions."
This innovation supports SAMHSA's
plan to advance its suicide prevention
efforts, with a particular focus on new
technologies that raise awareness of how
people can help others.
"We have effective treatments to help
suicidal individuals regain hope and a
desire to live, and we know how powerful
personal connections and support can
be," said U.S. Surgeon General Regina M.
Benjamin, M.D., M.B.A. "Therefore, we,
as a Nation, must do everything we can to
reach out to those at risk and provide them
the help and hope needed to survive and
return to productive lives with their family,
friends, and communities."
How It Works
Facebook users in the United States and
Canada can take action through the "Report Suicidal Content" link or
the "report" links across the site. Once a
user is reported to Facebook for posting
suicidal content, the content is reviewed by
the Facebook Safety Team.
If appropriate, Facebook will respond
directly to the user via email, indicating
that someone on Facebook is concerned
about their safety, and encourage the user
to enter a confidential online chat session
with a crisis counselor or call the toll-free
National Suicide Prevention Lifeline,
1–800–273–TALK (8255). The Lifeline
offers free and confidential telephone crisis
counseling to anyone in need, 24 hours a
day, and has answered more than 3 million
calls since its 2005 launch.
"The Lifeline's commitment to suicide
prevention has enabled people on
Facebook to get fast, meaningful help
when they need it most, and we look
forward to continuing our work with them
to help save lives," said Facebook's Chief
Security Officer Joe Sullivan.
Suicide Prevention App
Smartphones offer new suicide prevention
opportunities through apps that connect
people to help, wherever they are.
Supported by SAMHSA's Garrett Lee
Smith State and Tribal Suicide Prevention
Grant and the Texas Department of State
Health Services, Mental Health America
of Texas offers a free app featuring warning
signs and helpline information.
Suicide prevention is a key priority
within SAMHSA's Strategic Initiative
1: Prevention of Substance Abuse and
Mental Illness. In alignment with the
National Prevention Strategy, SAMHSA
is increasing public knowledge of the
warning signs for suicide and actions
to take in response to suicidal behavior.
Web-based services and smartphone apps
are key channels to reduce the impact of
suicide in America.
"It's increasingly important to provide
support for people who may not be
comfortable speaking about their problem,
but may be willing to accept help online,"
said Richard McKeon, Ph.D., M.P.H.,
Chief of the Suicide Prevention Branch
within SAMHSA's Center for Mental
Health Services.
SAMHSA offers other suicide prevention
resources, including the Suicide Prevention
Resource Center,
which is funded through a SAMHSA
grant, and SAMHSA's Mental Health
Services Locator, which provides comprehensive
information about mental health services
and resources nationwide.

As the Nation strives to increase access to affordable care, technology is playing a key role.
Two of SAMHSA's eight Strategic Initiatives encourage the development and expansion of health information technology (HIT).
As our country invests in the widespread adoption of health information technology (HIT), it is important to note the vast improvements this technology will bring to integrated, prevention-focused, health care delivery nationally.
For more information, visit our resources page.
Suicide, the Nation's 10th leading cause of death,1 is a preventable public health problem. Family members and friends of someone having suicidal thoughts may not know how to help, but SAMHSA and its grantees are using social media and smartphone apps to help them connect people to lifesaving services.
One in five adults age 18 and older in 2010 experienced mental illness in the past year, affecting 45.9 million adults across the United States, according to a Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) report released in January.
More than 1,700 substance abuse professionals, grantees, and community partners gathered at the National Harbor in Maryland on February 6 for SAMHSA's Prevention Day. Each year, Prevention Day is part of the Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America's (CADCA's) Annual National Leadership Forum.
In 2012, SAMHSA is celebrating its 20th birthday—and the progress the behavioral health field has made in prevention, treatment, and recovery. Since SAMHSA was created in 1992, the behavioral health field has changed dramatically.
The Fiscal Year 2013 budget reflects a continuing commitment to SAMHSA's role in behavioral health.

I don't favor her chances on grass as much nowadays because she's proven to be better on clay and slow-hard court in recent years. So I'm not sure if she can win Wimbledon, but I think if she has a good summer swing, she can be a contender for the US. She reached the semis last year, and i think she can play well enough on the medium fast stuff to get to another US final, and maybe win her fifth major. As for Serena, maybe she will have a letdown at some point this year. Despite her amazing success, she is 31 and is becoming more and more prone to surprise losses. If she gets knocked out early, it really helps Maria's chances.

Is capitalism sustainable?
Bono stated in his TED2013 talk that the numbers show that we can eradicate all poverty worldwide by 2030. While I really hope that is true, it begs the question: Is capitalism sustainable? Is it possible to have a rich and middle class without a poor class? The sad reality of capitalism is that if there is an exponentially small number of people with exponentially large wealth, there has to be an exponentially long tail of much poorer people who are each contributing to that wealth. Not that we necessarily need an exponentially small number of people with exponentially large wealth, but would the world keep running without capitalistic incentives that increase the separation between rich and poor? Can we eradicate all poverty without the rich sharing their riches? What happens to civilization when nobody is willing to work in the factories and orchards, or build roads?
(Please don't take this question the wrong way! Personally I wish that nobody had to work menial jobs. I just don't understand how we can eradicate poverty when so many jobs will always translate into low-paid labor.)

Mar 13 2013: This is the question that, at its core, will determine how we progress as a species. In my opinion the single most important issue of our time! For many millions of people living now, and to the souls that have died, the answer is NO! For many people Luke, capitalism could not sustain them, because they did not have the money to get into the game. Is Capitalism sustainable?, or can Capitalism sustain all of the People? Either way, the answer is NO. This is an issue that I have thought about for many many years, and I am now in the thought path of what it will take to bring about real change. And that means a Cultural change in in the minds and hearts of men as to what is important. As it stands, Money is more important than Human life, and has been for a long time, but the extremes are widening. In this country, we have a political system in which one side is basically about protecting people's money....not....PEOPLE. One post said something that I believe is at the base of who we SHOULD be. "No one asks to be born"! But yet while we all come into this world the same way, we are not all born in the same set of opportunities. This is one flaw in Capitalism, its not equal from the start, for everyone. And then there is the increasing population, along with technology changing the work place and absorbing jobs, exponentially! But even worse and glaringly obvious (and even more ignored) is the fact that the need for money, for EVERYTHING, is also the reason for 90% of all crime! The main reason for STRESS and a multitude of illnesses for humans. Capitalism, in the form of transferable currency is antiquated. What is the sense in having the material, the people, to build a much needed school, but then having a system in place where the bottom line is... "We are trying to cut spending, we can't afford that. We have to balance the Budget!!" This system, with all we are now capable of, makes no more sense! Its old and is neither SUSTAINABLE nor can it SUSTAIN us!!

Mar 17 2013: Mr. Shamwell, I agree with your thoughts.
someone please explain to me what in the world changed so quickly when 2 hard working, responsible adults earn salaries that barely meet the family's basic needs, food, shelter, fuel, good health?
I laugh when I hear the cry from those sitting at the round tables enjoying a life of security, about the need to address the alarming increase of obesity, violence, mental illness, drop-out rates in public schools, the war on drugs....on and on we go.
Ladies and gentleman.... we are afraid and live in a state of stress, we are envious of those that end the day with basic needs stamped "PAID", we are angry about the enormous inequality of shared profits made from our labor, our public education system is antiquated and in dire need of reform but, it is primarily supported by local taxes and we are already taxed to the hilt,a much needed secondary education to be the least bit competitive in the 21st century economy has become a for profit institution, Good health...how many uninsured people in our country...too many for without it, the cost is astronomical, obesity...when did the cost of a shopping bag full of healthy food become such a financial struggle? Drugs....an escape more and more people seek, and you are correct about the of money for "everything" speaks to the rise in crime.
capitalism started out as a good idea, and I agree Mr Shamwell, somewhere along the line the word PEOPLE left the equation. The truth be told "we the people" don't need all that much. I think the word Security speaks to what we all are seeking . Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs states it best: "Security of body, employment, resources, morality,the family, health and property". pretty basic.
I don't know what I would replace capitalism with for I have little faith in the moral compass of human beings.
Mar 17 2013: And it is just that Mary Ellen, as you question the "Moral Compass" of Human Beings! This is the nail on the head statement. Just as the Compass of a Captain at sea can point his Compass anywhere he chooses, if the sound of the Sirens is just too strong to break away from, he will soon meet his peril. I have no doubt the Compass of mankind can be changed, but try to tell a Bank Executive who happens to hooked on Meds' he or she has a drug problem and they will tell you just the opposite. Empowerment is addictive, and nothing is more empowering than Money!
The truth of the mater is, there is enough money for every single person of adult age to live comfortably on the planet. Their is enough money to break many of the cycles that feed impoverishment, build schools and educate all the children. Just in the US alone, we waste enough food every year to feed the enter Worlds hungry. But even thinking like this to Big Capitalist minded people and you are talking about "Hand Outs", "Taking My Money", "Taxing the Rich", "Feeding the Lazy"! Our whole political system (now) is about who controls the money.
Quite frankly, I don't see the Human Race really taking that next step of its evolution with Wealth determined as we do today. The Wealth should always be in the Person. The Person who asked not to be born. The wealth should be in knowing that we have prepared the best possible situation for that person to feel useful to society and to himself. We are raping forests all over the world, not to create more jobs, but to generate more wealth in the form of money. This is so backwards. Capitalism will only insure that we deplete our resources. Resources that should not have any attachment to Wealth Creation. Have we become so weak that we have surrendered to the notion that as long as Capitalism works for SOME......Its Working???!!!
Thank you for you thoughts Mary Ellen. And I thank Luke for asking such an important question that we should all revisit soon!

Wild at Oilers, G58/07-08
This is Lorne Worsley. Gump. There are a ton of stories about this fellow (afraid to fly, for one) but there are 3 that have always ranked among my all-time favorites.
The first one happened when Gump was in New York playing for the Rangers. They were an awful team, truly horrible but Worsley was well respected as one of the best goalies in the game. One day a reporter asked him which team gave him the most trouble while tending net, and Worsley snapped back with "the Rangers" which remains one of the most quoted lines in the history of the game.
His weight was often the subject of conversation, too. A reporter once asked his weight, to which Gump replied "180." The reporter then asked "is that firm?" and Worsley replied "No. It is not firm."
The other one comes from the early 70s, after he was dealt to Minnesota. The North Stars in those years were pretty good for an expansion team but no match for the best established clubs. One night they're playing the Bruins of Orr and it's getting ugly. With the score about 4-0 Boston and the Bruins on a powerplay, Phil Esposito is in the slot waiting for a pass. The pass comes and for some reason, Espo passes it off and the tape to tape continues without a chance on net. Worsley, well known for his humor, yelled out at Esposito "the next time you get the puck, would you just put it in the fucking net, already?"
Worsley died about a year ago, age 77. He didn't wear a mask until his final season (#21 in the show). Worsley began his NHL career in 1952-53, winning the Calder Trophy as the rookie of the year with the New York Rangers. He helped Montreal win four Stanley Cup titles in 10 seasons with the Canadiens and finished his career with the Minnesota North Stars. He won the Vezina twice.
As for tonight's game, hell I have no idea. The Oilers are a fun team to watch, maybe the Montreal Expos about 1977. Any fool can see there's a bright future, but the present is a little frustrating for the fans and the veterans who won't be around by the time the kids start kicking out the jams.

The one thing Eddie Vanderdoes is most looking forward to now?
A good night's sleep.
Vanderdoes, the Placer High School senior defensive end and top-5 national recruit, ended months of speculation Wednesday when he announced he will attend Notre Dame on a football scholarship.
Vanderdoes picked the Fighting Irish over UCLA, Washington, USC and national champion Alabama.
It was a "life decision," Vanderdoes said with a sense of relief that the decision was finally behind him.
He first cited academics, then football tradition in South Bend, Ind., and the community that lives for its sports stars.
"Very happy about it," Vanderdoes said during a ceremony in front of media, family, friends and classmates in the auditorium on the Auburn campus. "I'm finally done with the process. It feels like the right spot. It really fits."
Vanderdoes said he had lost sleep and agonized over his choice. Every school, he said, had merit.
The recruiting process included rumors and speculation about which college Vanderdoes would select.
One Internet report Wednesday had Vanderdoes headed to Auburn (in Alabama), but the confusion came because of his love for his foothill hometown.
Earlier in the day, Notre Dame jumped the gun, including Vanderdoes on its signing list, even though he had not faxed his national letter of intent. Notre Dame quickly admitted its error and sent out a revised news release without Vanderdoes' name.
Vanderdoes, who fielded dozens of calls from recruiters Wednesday, signed his paper and faxed it just moments before his announcement.
"He's a great player with a great future," said Jon Osterhout, who runs the linemen camp Linemen Win Games and is close with the Vanderdoes family. "He couldn't go wrong with any of his choices. This decision will affect him for the next 70 years. The next big decision for him may be picking his future wife."
Said Vanderdoes when told of the quote: "I don't have a wife this year."
Vanderdoes led a strong recruiting class for the region.
At the same ceremony in the Placer auditorium, golfer Hannah Gregg signed with Sonoma State, tight end Stone Sander signed with Sacramento State and quarterback Peter Denham with Northern Arizona.
Many other area schools held signing parties. At Antelope, three football players became the first Titans to sign Division I letters. Receiver Tyler Winston and lineman Michael Okoroike are headed to San Jose State, and lineman Daren Echeveria is off to Air Force.
"We appreciate and understand how hard this is to get a scholarship," Okoroike said. "I feel great about it. It's a chance to get a free education and still play football."
Okoroike, who said he dreams of becoming a surgeon, joked that linemen often wind up with mangled fingers not good for surgeons but vowed to play smart.
Winston had interest from other programs such as UCLA but said he felt at home with San Jose State, which won 11 games this season, the most victories since 1940.
"I think we have a really good recruiting class," Winston said. "And I'm glad it's over. It's a relief. I'm proud."
Among other top players signing Wednesday were Pleasant Grove running back Isaiah Saunders (Idaho) and defensive tackle Nick Terry (Boise State).
Boise State also landed Nevada Union linebacker Tanner Vallejo and Jesuit wide receiver Thomas Sperbeck.
Grant receiver Trayvon Henderson signed with Hawaii in what national recruiting experts viewed as a steal.
There was even a signing in Florida.
The Bee Player of the Year, Del Oro's Brandon Monroe, in Orlando for an all-star football showcase, signed with San Jose State to play running back or defensive back.
"I think he'd be a really good college back," Del Oro coach Casey Taylor said. "He has great lateral quickness and speed."

News Release
Sergeant Michael B. Webb
Kentucky State Police
Public Affairs Branch
Office (502) 782-1780
Eleven Die On Kentucky Roadways Last Week
(April 25 through May 1)
Date of Release: 05/02/05
(FRANKFORT, Ky.) - Preliminary statistics* indicate that 11 people died in 10 separate crashes on Kentucky's roadways from Monday, April 25 through Sunday, May 1.
Of the 10 fatal crashes, preliminary data* indicates alcohol was a suspected factor in three of the crashes and eight of the victims were not wearing seat belts. The seat belt status of two of the fatalities is unknown at this time.
One double fatality crash occurred in Hardin County. Two single fatality crashes occurred in Jefferson County and two single fatality crashes occurred in Pike County. Single fatality crashes also occurred in Crittenden, Laurel, Montgomery, Muhlenberg and Pulaski counties.
Since the beginning of the 2005, a total of 269* people have lost their lives on Kentucky roadways. This is an increase of 12 over the same time period in 2004. One hundred and sixty of these 269 fatalities were not wearing seat belts.
Citizens can contribute to highway safety by reporting erratic drivers to the Kentucky State Police toll-free at 1-800-222-5555 (in the state of Kentucky only, does not work out of state). Callers will remain anonymous and should give a description of the vehicle, location, direction of travel and license number if possible.
*These statistics are still preliminary as KSP waits for all local law enforcement agencies throughout the state to report any crashes and fatalities that may have occurred in their areas.

HTTPS Extension Adds Default SSL Browsing to Firefox
HTTPS Everywhere encrypts a number of major websites.
The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation have released HTTPS Everywhere, a Firefox extension that activates SSL/TSL encryption on sites that support the security setting, but don't feature it as a default when visiting because of partial support, unsecured trackback links or other issues. To alleviate this problem, HTTPS Everywhere writes all requests in HTTPS.
The EFF mentions that HTTPS Everywhere Twitter, Google, Wikipedia, PayPal, The New York Times, and The Washington Post, along with other sites that support the SSL encryption option. It's also possible to write rulesets that define which domains are redirected HTTPS. The EFF offers more information on that here.
