Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk announced the development of two new crisis centers in the area at a press conference at the Mental Health Care Center of Dane County Tuesday.
Somehow I smashed the screen on my fancy and fairly new Samsung sliding-touch phone to kingdom come, and over the next few weeks slowly watched the light behind the screen die from where I cracked it outwards... malignant cancer of the phone. I remember the sinking feeling in my stomach as my text messages, contacts and favorite Star Trek adventure game faded away into nonexistence. Now I'm stuck with this antique pile of shit flip phone, with a half-assed camera and T9 prediction for texts. I remember clutching a similar one while scurrying around the halls during the early years of high school, but at that time they were the cat's meow, the cool thing to have.
Two days after the Massachusetts special election put health care on the back burner in Washington (that's assuming it was even on the front burner), Governor Jim Doyle announced a non-state funded health-care plan for adults without dependants. The BadgerCare Basic program would cost enrolled Wisconsin residents $130 per month and is designed to benefit those 20,000 people currently on the BadgerCare Plus waiting list.
Apparently, ears can be sexy. I was under the ignorant impression that so long as your ears did not evoke childhood memories of Dumbo's flight, stick out from your neck, or you know, weren't there, ears were unimportant to overall attractiveness. I know, you must be thinking, ""What rock have I been living under?"" According to Heidi Montag, one of the reality celebs that make headlines by creating a ""situation,"" she did not have sexy ears until she went under the knife for 10 simultaneous procedures to perfect her body. The procedures included a neck liposuction, breast augmentation revision and a brow lift, the but for Montag, they do not seem to be enough. For now, it's the new year, new her, but she claims that surgery will still be necessary down the road.
Anything bugging you recently? Perhaps it's too early to ask that question since we're just one week into the new semester. But even minor stressors may disrupt a well-kept daily schedule and cast a shadow over your bright mood in the long run. Meeting a professional counselor just seems like making a mountain out of a mole hill. Friends, on the other hand, are already too busy riding in the fast lane of college life. That is how SPILL, an e-mail-based peer listening group, came to fill the void. Although SPILL does not provide any forms of counseling services, it offers a novel approach to the mental health of college students.
For 17 years, researcher Ei Terasawa restrained rhesus monkeys and left them fully conscious while repeatedly pumping deadly chemicals into their exposed brains. It wasn't until the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) discovered that a neglected monkey had accidentally died under her care that her push-pull perfusion experiment was put on hold and the treatment of primates in lab settings was reevaluated.
Lately, I haven't been as interested in sex as I used to be, and it's becoming kind of a problem... How do I get back in the groove?

From the most experienced fifth-year senior to the newest of freshmen, we all have felt at one time or another the stress and rigors of college life bearing down on us. Whether we are stressing over financial situations, what our goals for the future may be, relationships, or even that term paper due this Friday you haven't even started yet, college is a tumultuous time that heavily impacts our minds and mental states. That being said, it should be a top priority for our university (any university or college, in fact) to have mental treatment and counseling readily available to all students for free, or at least at very affordable prices. The fact that a recent UW System audit found that student mental health needs were growing at a much faster rate than the resources available is, therefore, a cause for great concern. The UW System needs to address this issue now before it grows out of control or situations arise in which students are put at risk.
West Washington Shooting: Madison Police Department officials investiage the scene outside the Mental Health Care Center of Dane County, 625 W. Washington Ave, where a 19-year-old Madison resident was shot Wednesday.
As the story goes, in Genesis 22, God instructed Abraham to take his beloved son Isaac to Moriah to be sacrificed. The two gathered rations and set out. I'm sure that was an awkward trip, because - and here's the kicker - Abraham never told Isaac he was planning to kill him. I must assume if Abraham, a pillar of Judeo-Christian theology, had disclosed his plans for Isaac's imminent death, it might have been harder to convince Isaac to come along. The two arrived, and the presumably confused Isaac was then bound and placed on the altar. Just when it looked like curtains for Isaac, an angel intervened before Abraham's knife found its mark. Thank God...
