Prior to this past weekend, I was not 100 pct. sure I would run for the Florida House seat. Although I would love to have kept things under wraps for another 6-12 months, now that I have made my decision, I was not going to lie when asked if I have decided to run.

Anyway, I am NOT asking for ANY coverage of my plan to run for the Florida House District 26 seat, but I feel I "owe" it to you to hear it from me since I have now made the final decision. "

2008-11-12 Faith can be stronger backed up with heat Tallahassee Democrat

On my last trip home, my dentist made a passionate case for learning how to use a firearm and buying one to keep in my home. Our talk coincided with news reports about Anne Pressly, a 26-year-old Little Rock, Ark. , TV anchor who was savagely attacked in her own home. She ultimately died of her injuries. Reports about the case indicate that Pressly was a random victim of an act of violence. That terrified me, a single woman. And fear is a powerful motivator.

2008-11-12 Magnetic Relief For Depression

TMS uses the principle of electromagnetism to induce small electric currents inside the brain. Patients such as Newman are seated in what looks like a dentists chair and have a magnetic coil placed near the left side of their foreheads. A powerful, fluctuating magnetic field is then started.

2008-11-11 Dentistry: Are Dentists Ready for Unionization

You have got to be kidding me," said a Missouri prosthodontist. "Ever heard of the ADA" Other dentists supported the dental association. "We have the ADA. If you want something done, put the pressure on them. The ADA is a very effective weapon on many fronts," declared a Florida dentist.

Dental insurance is one of the most important reasons dentists would join a union. "The insurance companies take far too much advantage of the dental industry, and do pretty much whatever they feel like knowing full well that organized dentistry, such as it is right now, doesnt have much in the way of clout to put up a fight against them," said a California dentist. Exclaimed another, "We should bring a class action lawsuit on those insurance companies. "

2008-11-05 Obama casting his vote - City of Brass

I think its wonderful Obama has taken his girls with him while he votes. My own daughter is 6 years old and I took her with me to the primary, and also when I filed my early vote a few days ago in the general. Its important to show kids the basic mechanics of Democracy in action, and it certainly has made her more enthusiastic (she told my dentist yesterday, "Ill be so glad when this election is over. "). I think my daughter will remember this election for the rest of her life, and certainly so too will Obamas daughters. Watching your parents debate, discuss the issues, and then cast their vote is the best civics lesson you can have about democracy.
