In the rest of the book, Romney discusses foreign policy, the economy, entitlement programs, health care, education, energy policy and the unique strengths of American culture. Often citing examples from his experience in Massachusetts, he recommends changes in policies and laws that he believes will build America's strength. The book's Epilogue is a helpful summary, briefly restating 64 action items for a stronger America. Among them:
- Stop the trillion-dollar deficits, and spend only what we have.
- Reform entitlements to make them sustainable and to honor all of the promises that have been made to our seniors.
- Increase our investment in science and basic research.
- Reform immigration to attract and retain talent, simplify the legal processes and end illegal immigration.
- Let states craft their own programs to insure the uninsured.
- Establish a comprehensive energy security plan--a "no regrets" plan"--that frees us from dependence on oil oligopolists and that reduces our emissions of greenhouse gases.
- Stand by our allies and friends.Read more ›
Most Helpful Customer Reviews on Amazon.com (beta)
Romney writes well, and manages to communicate complicated ideas intelligently. He has to walk a fine line between policy discussions and public appeals, and hits a good balance. The book is however frequently overly sentimental , especially when Romney goes into one of his periodic paeans to American brilliance, goodness, and beauty.
The best aspect of "No Apology" is Romney's discussion of the US economy and related issues such as health care and the environment. He skillfully makes the case for "creative destruction" (i.e. market competition) and free trade. I particularly liked his acknowledgement of the costs of free trade to workers who lose their jobs -Romney's descriptions of his encounters with laid-off people, recognizing the ill effects of unemployment on people's self worth and dignity, is genuinely moving. Romney actually makes his case not by ignoring the downside, but by weighing benefits against cost. He also makes a very sensible point about America's need to liberalize its immigration policy in order to ensure that well educated foreigners who study in the US stay and contribute locally, rather than leave after having studied in America.
His points about regulation, taxation and the 2008-2009 bailouts are more open to question and less detailed, but exhibit the same awareness of the pros and cons of various positions. His criticism of the Obama administration and Congressional Democrats is exaggerated, but not overall implausible. He offers interesting approaches to the government's debt problems. The chapter on health care reform, while interesting, fails to discuss in detail the various healthcare bills promoted by the Obama administration and its allies. One suspects close scrutiny would show that they are more similar to the plan Romney instituted in Massachusetts than he'd care to admit. Perhaps most surprisingly, and despite his best efforts to disguise the fact, Romney is in favor of taxes on carbon emissions! Overall, while I don't agree with everything Romney says about these issues, he comes across as a thoughtful, pragmatic and non-doctrinaire Republican.
Unfortunately, the other parts of the book are far less impressive. The chapter on morality and culture is merely fluff; Romney briefly notes his opposition to same-sex marriage, abortion, and activist judges, and then goes on endlessly about the importance of work, the family and the American way.
More troubling are the earlier chapters, the ones about foreign policy. They showcase a politician prone to cliché, to vilification of the current administration coupled with the white washing of the previous one, and perhaps most important, a politician without any ideas of how to deal with the world's complex problems.
Have you ever read a sentence more cliché than "No nation has shed more blood for more noble causes than the United States" (p.33)? How do you prove or disprove this bizarre assertion? The Soviet Union lost many more men fighting Nazi Germany than the US has. Was its cause weaker because it has been invaded by Nazi Germany first? But America was attacked by Japan, and Hitler had first declared war on the United States, not vice versa. In general I find the arithmetic of blood shedding gruesome. Do you count in absolute numbers or in percentages? If the former, does it amounts to the fact of America being a big country? And how do you account for blood spilled for ignoble causes? Do you deduct it from blood spilled for good causes (thus reaching "net blood")? What do you do with wars fought for a combination of noble and ignoble causes? Etc, etc...
Romney's main argument regarding foreign policy is that the Obama administration strengthens America's enemies and weakens its allies. If the book's title means anything, it is an attack on Obama's "apology tour", apologizing for American crimes, real and imagined. Romney strangely paints Obama as breaking with 50 years of strategic planning. That's absurd and over the top criticism of a stylistic device, which has helped shore up support for the United States in such mostly friendly countries as France, the UK, and Germany, while having little or no effect on the likes of Venezuela, Iran or Turkey. Romney is upset that Hugo Chavez and Muamar Qaddafi have praised Obama. But Chavez has revoked all of the praise he has dashed out early on, while Muamar Qaddafi is now a Western ally, albeit a capricious and eccentric one. Indeed, normalizing relationship with Libya is the one Middle Eastern accomplishment of the George W. Bush administration, and it is strange to see Romney disparaging it in order to score a cheap debating point.
All the criticism of Obama's foreign policy strikes me as remarkably unbalanced, given the lack of almost any criticism of the policies of George W. Bush. Whatever ill effects Obama's policies had on America's relationship with its allies, those are nowhere near the scale of the rift caused by the Bush Administration (remember "Freedom Fries", "Old Europe" and "Cheese-Eating-Surrender-Monkeys"?), and Obama has not plunged America into two unwinnable wars. Criticizing Obama's foreign policies is like berating your daughter for scratching your car while ignoring your son's scorching down the house.
Romney's ideas about how to reform America's foreign policy are nothing to write home about. He wants to emulate the regional division of the world which President Truman instituted in the US Army, and make sure that there's one official responsible for American diplomacy in any region of the world. This is unlikely to work: the system has hardly been a panacea for America's military: consider the military failures in Vietnam, Lebanon, Somalia and (arguably) Iraq. Furthermore, US diplomacy is far more complicated than America's military operations, involving a host of issues (trade, economic issues, political issues, peace keeping, etc), as well as cross-nation effects (America needs Chinese and Russian cooperation in imposing sanctions on Iran, for example), so that policy towards any country would necessarily be beyond the responsibility of any one official.
Romney wants to increase US Military spending (p.32). But what for? None of the conflicts in the world today are likely to be resolvable mostly by force. A military attack on Iran is probably not a great idea, but even if it was, it's politically undoable and Romney doesn't suggest it. So, beyond the existing battlefields in Afghanistan and Iraq where exactly will this massive army be deployed? Romney argues that the expenditures should be 4% of GDP, rather than 3.8% as it is today. But he never tells us how he got this number. Why not go back to the 6% it was during the Cold War? More generally, Romney argues that "America's greatness" and "America's power" requires that the US will keep its military superiority over the Chinese. This is folly; The Chinese economy is growing much faster than America's economy, and this is unlikely to change, because China is a lot poorer than America: it's catching up. China's economy will exceed America's GDP long before it'll approach its GDP per capita. Why would America want to engage in an Arms Race it is bound to lose?
In the book's final chapter, Romney wonders, in effect, how any reasonable American could be a Democrat. His discussion of this question mysteriously fails to mention the war in Iraq or the mess the Bush administration has made of America's economy. Romney's willful amnesia to one side, much of what Romney says about America's economic issues makes sense, and very little of it is utterly loony. If he would rethink his foreign policy views and tone down his culturally conservative agenda, he would be a Republican candidate moderates can seriously consider.
As the grandson of American Immigrants whose family was run out of Mexico by Mexican revolutionaries angry with American Expatriates, Mitt grew up as part of a family that worked themselves up from desperate poverty to live the American Dream. His father worked as a wall plasterer while he supported his family and worked his way through college. He eventually earned his way into the presidency of American Motor Corporation (AMC) and bet his house (or at least the money he'd made from selling his home) on the successful development of the Rambler compact car. He later became three-time governor of Michigan.
Mitt grew up in a family that had strong core values and he discusses those core values throughout this book. This reviewer actually met most of Mitt's family including Gov. George Romney when Mitt ran an unsuccessful campaign for Senate in Massachusetts. The whole family was part of that campaign and the lessons they learned with that loss served Mitt well a few years when he successfully won election for the Governorship of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Romney managed to do a good job managing that state even though he didn't have enough Republican legislative votes to uphold a veto and therefore had to reach across the aisle to the Democrats controlling the State House in order to accomplish his agenda.
Romney believes that if America becomes a victim of socialism that freedom throughout the world will be lost. If the nation is not careful, it will become a second rate world country--still strong enough to survive, but not strong enough to defend freedom anywhere else in the world.
"There are three pillars that sustain a free and strong America:
l. A Strong Economy
2. A Strong Military
3. A free and Strong People."
Romney then provides an agenda for a free and strong America. His list of goals includes 64 separate items and even Romney admits that his is not a complete list of changes needed. Studying that agenda will provide the reader with a decent idea of how Romney would tackle the nation's problems.
The book's second chapter "Why Nations Decline" is also instructive. Mitt briefly examines the reasons the Ottomans, the Spanish, the Portuguese, the Chinese, the British, the Soviets--these were all super-powers of their respective eras "and they were all surpassed." The reasons for these nation's failures were eerily similar to much of what is occurring in the USA and Western Europe.
The book examines many of the reasons for today's problems and provides some pretty decent ideas about how to solve them. Romney also describes why many people prefer to live in denial of the facts and why in past civilizations that failure to face undeniable facts led to the destruction of those great civilizations.
In the book's eleventh and last chapter this reader was surprised by some personal
stories that brought tears to my eyes. Since I was reading while seated at the Prudential Center Food Court Terrace, it was a little embarrassing to suddenly finding my eyes tearing up and salty streams trickling down my cheeks. That anything in this volume might require having tissues available was a total shock. Surprise, surprise, because the previous 99% of the book had been straight-forward logic and business-like explanations of Romney's beliefs and ideas on how to solve the nation's rapidly expanding and very dangerous problems, this ability to bring forth tears in an audience was enlightening.
The text was not boring and there was a little humor such as Mitt's description of the fall his wife Ann experienced when the stage they were speaking from in Dubuque, Iowa, collapsed. When she got up, "dusted herself off, and later ad-libbed, `Well, I fell on de butt in Dubuque.'" The man obvious isn't just a cool headed, unflappable, maybe sometimes seemingly unfeeling man; he is an experienced leader and well schooled in the workings of Capitalism, industrial production and job producing economics He is also amazingly well spoken and as Bostonians know, he used to sometimes substitute as a host on a popular conservative talk show in order to keep in touch with the Massachusetts public. He wasn't afraid to talk to the general public, but he relished the opportunity that only talk radio provides for contact with typical voters. He loved that form of give and take communication.
This is a good read for this political genre. It will provide the information that many people will need to decide if years of leadership experience should triumph over hope.
(Please take a moment to see and enjoy the customer photographs I've uploaded to this listing site.)
"No Apology" presents Romney's analysis of the world situation and many of his plans to restore American greatness. It is not an autobiography, a la Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance, where the reader is "treated" to all the ups & downs of poor Barry's childhood and adolescence. "No Apology" is an analysis of the domestic and world situation, followed by plans to deal with the problems discovered. I suspect it is the sort of document Mitt Romney got used to creating as a top-tier consultant, then CEO, and then rescuer of the scandal-tainted Olympics in Salt Lake City.
He was successful at all these things, by the way, and most of his life has been executive experience, not counting the many hours of unpaid service to those in need or in trouble.
In short, the book is fairly heavy reading, though most people should be able to get through it pretty easily. It definitely answers the question of what Mitt Romney will do as President.
Very high recommendation indeed!
No Apology is equally divided between foreign policy and domestic agenda concerns. If you watched Mitt's appearance on The View, you know his top three concerns (aside from replacing the President, the Senate, and Congress!) are protecting the threatened American dream (including managing debt), making Medicare sustainable, and reforming education (hiring from the top third of our schools and paying higher starting salaries to this higher standard of teachers!) These concerns along with some specific prescriptions and creative ideas are major themes of his book.
Ultimately, this book is Mitt's humble and inspiring attempt to contribute to the conversation of what America should be. It's not about election or reelection, but doing what is right for our kids and grandkids, the real America.
If you're not sure what to think of Mitt, be sure to take your Amazon copy of No Apology to one of the stops on his book tour! This book is authentic Mitt, and those who understand the real problems America is facing would be crazy not to consider him for our next President.
Romney does use lots of data to back up his opinions. That's actually a good thing, though some people might be turned off by it.
Romney tells us, "This is a book about what I believe should be our primary national objective: to keep America strong and to preserve its place as the world's leading nation. And it describes the course I believe we must take to strengthen the nation in order to remain prosperous, secure, and free."
But we also learn about Romney, the man.
He is the son of a third generation American Immigrant whose family was run out of Mexico by Mexican revolutionaries. He grew up as part of a family that worked itself up from horrible poverty to live what most consider the American Dream.
His father worked as a wall plasterer while he supported his family and worked his way through college. Mitt's father became president of American Motor Corporation (AMC) and later became three-time governor of Michigan.
Romney discusses the values he grew up with. Of course, he went into politics like his father before him. He tells us in his book that if America turns to socialism, freedom throughout the world will be lost. If we are not careful with what we have left, we'll become a second-rate country.
I found the book enlightening and hopeful. I think you will too.

U.S. News Rates 'America's Meanest Airlines' For 2011
According to 2011's Airline Quality Rating report, flying is getting better in the country. The researchers found that the industry experienced a slightly better percentage of on-time arrivals; passengers had to deal with less mishandled luggage and overbooked flights caused slightly fewer problems in 2010 than in 2009. In 2010, Air Tran earned the highest Airline Quality Rating Score, followed by Hawaiian Airlines and Jet Blue.
U.S. News & World Report, however, dug through the data to find the worst-performing airlines. So what airlines ranked as top three worst performers among the national carriers?
'America's Meanest Airlines'
1. United Airlines
"United had the unfortunate distinction of placing second on Business Insider's "The 18 Worst Companies in America" list. High baggage fees haven't helped the company's image."
2. American Airlines
"In 2010, AA was fifth worst in total consumer complaints among all airlines surveyed, with 1.44 complaints reported per 100,000 passengers."
3. Frontier
U.S. News reports that the airline's on-time performance improved, but its customer complaints and mishandled baggage, "took Frontier in the wrong direction."

I reached NPR's Tom Bowman who is in Kandahar now, just back from the area where Sgt. Bales was assigned. And Tom, I understand you were just a mile or two from where those killings took place.

Building Better Houses For Wounded Soldiers By Renee Montagne • Feb 14, 2012 All wars bring innovations — in weapons, and also in ways to repair the damage done. Penicillin is one of the more famous examples: It came into use as a treatment for troops in World War II. The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have brought their own breakthroughs, none more dramatic than the prosthetics that come close to giving back what has been lost. And big advances in treating grievous injuries have meant many more troops coming home alive. Pages« first ‹ previous … 2 3 4 5

The Travelling OSC Program will provide children entering grades 2-5 with the opportunity to engage with the outdoors and their community. This program isn't housed in a room. It's housed in a forest, on a beach, in recreation centres and community celebrations. It's adventure and new learning opportunities every day after school.
In response to interest from community members, Oaklands Community Association is exploring options for establishing community gardens of various types on public lands within the Oaklands neighbourhood.
We envision these fitting within suitable park space. The short survey below can help your Parks Committee better understand the views of our community as we explore possibilities with the City of Victoria.
This guide features Oaklands Community Association's programs, events, markets and community programming from April-September. Call the centre at 250-370-9101 to register for progams.

Based on a 2,000 calorie dietSee full nutrition
Ready In
Very tasty. I'd add a little more spice and maybe a little more salt. A little chili garlic sauce did the trick for that. But I like spicy food, so that's just me. Very solid recipe.
Additions to Sautee mixture: Dried Curry Leaves Smoked Paprika Fresh Grated Ginger Salt Pepper Coconut and Olive Oils _______ Omitted chicken bouillon/broth Used brown lentils
Great flavor! Nice and spicey, the right amount of spice too! I was alittle nervous with so much cinnamon but it was perfect. Now I will make some scones to have with this soup.

epithelium of the cornea (the outermost region of the cornea) loses its normal clarity due to a buildup of cloudy material. It gets its name from the unusual appearance of the cornea during an eye exam. This dystrophy occurs when the epithelium's basement membrane develops abnormally, causing the epithelial cells to not properly adhere to it. This leads to recurrent epithelial erosions, which can cause blurred vision and severe pain.[1] This condition is usually not inherited. However, families with autosomal dominant inheritance and mutations in the TGFBI gene have been identified.[2]Epithelial basement membrane corneal dystrophy is a condition where the

Filmed on October 14–15, 2011, at "Pivot: AIGA Design Conference"
Americans spend a significant amount of money on services—67 percent of total consumer spending, according to the Wall Street Journal. As designers, we play an important role in designing better service experiences. But what exactly is service design? How is designing a service different than designing a website or consumer environment? In a series of affinity sessions at "Pivot: AIGA Design Conference"—curated by Continuum and moderated by Ed Milano, Continuum's vice president of program development—designers from a variety of industries, who deal with services daily, discussed the entire service-design ecosystem and how designers can craft dynamic, actionable and better overall experiences for the public.
This video was produced by Continuum and was filmed and edited by Cantaloupe.
In 2011, AIGA's biennial design conference drew more than 1,500
designers, educators and students to Phoenix for "Pivot," a three-day conference focused on the changing nature of the design industry. Watch videos from the event here.

CNN cited the American Immigration Council's recent report ...
This Week in Immigration
Published on Fri, Feb 26, 2010
A new report by the anti-immigration think-tank, Center for Immigration Studies, tells Republican leaders to give up on the Latino vote. The center suggests that only after reducing Hispanic immigration into the country can that voting block begin assimilating and becoming Republican. The Immigration Impact writes in an article, "In other words, the CIS report offers not only a grim view of Republican political prospects, but a stereotypical and insulting portrayal of Latino voters who are perceived as too poor and ignorant to vote Republican, and who should therefore be ignored by Republican political strategists until they grow out of their Democratic phase….Apparently, an immigrant has not really become fully part of American society until he or she fervently supports a Republican Party that officially looks down upon immigrants."

The Food and Drug Administration, the oldest comprehensive consumer protection agency in the U.S. federal government, is charged with protecting the public health. Under this mandate, it regulates drugs and medical devices for their safety and effectiveness. But is it a failing mandate? It's long been argued that the FDA's long and costly approval processes stifle innovation and keep life-changing treatments from the market. But the question remains: when it comes to public health, is it ever okay to sacrifice safety for speed?

Possible US ambassador to the UK nominee: Editor of Vogue
**Written by Doug Powers
According to Bloomberg News, President Obama nominated 59 ambassadors in his first term, and 40 of them were heavy-hitting bundlers for his campaign. By that measure, Vogue editor-in-chief and Obamaphile clothier of choice Anna Wintour is more than qualified to serve on the US diplomatic corps, and she might get the opportunity:
President Barack Obama is considering nominating Anna Wintour, editor-in-chief of Vogue, as his next ambassador to either the U.K. or France as he looks to reward his biggest fundraisers with embassies never out of fashion, according to two people familiar with the matter.
Wintour, 63, may have some competition for the London posting; Matthew Barzun, finance chairman of Obama's presidential campaign, also is interested in the job, officially known as ambassador to the Court of St. James's, said the people, who requested anonymity when discussing possible personnel moves.
Both Wintour and Barzun were among Obama's biggest bundlers of donations in the campaign, with each raising more than $500,000 to help re-elect the president. Marc Lasry, the managing partner and founder of Avenue Capital Management, also wants the Paris embassy, said the people.
Wintour, as you might recall, co-hosted a $40,000 per plate fundraiser at the home of Sarah Jessica Parker to raise money for "that guy."
The current US ambassador to the UK is Louis Susman, who was — you guessed it — an Obama campaign bundler.

iHerb Customer Reviews
Savings of: $22.73 (35% off)
Sorry, this product is no longer in stock.
Posted by Reviewer2089428 on Jan 06, 2012
I love New Chapter. All the ingredients are from whole foods. I take them especially to recover from a good workout and I do feel that it has helped me recover faster without pain.
Brilliant herbal anti-inflamatory
Posted by reflexheather on Jan 29, 2014
Great natural anti inflammatory. I take these for bad knees and sore hands. Notice the difference when I run out and the aches start up again. Also have more energy and just feel better when I take this. So many diseases are linked to inflammation that this can only help maintain health generally. New Chapter products are of the highest quality and purity. 2014 Update very disappointed that Ireland no longer allows this product. I have worked for two of Dublin's top health stores for 10 years and am now a holistic practitioner. I hope you found this review helpful.
Very good
Posted by Reviewer3240802 on Jun 26, 2012
This product seems to reduce inflammation related to a number of conditions. I've used it when I start getting a migraine and it seems to help.
Very good for mild to moderate inflammation.
Posted by DaveJF on Jun 27, 2012
Used for 3 months w/ no side-effects for me other than mild stomach discomfort if taken on an empty stomach (however the package directions are clear to take this product with food).
Great Joint Supplement
Posted by Jasmine44 on Jun 27, 2011
My husband & I take Zyflamend for joint health. It doesn't hurt that it is a great prostate protector among other things. I think it's best to use preventative measures rather than wait for a problem to exist. Zyflamend does that for us.
Great anti-inflammatory
Posted by Reviewer2471528 on Oct 06, 2010
My acupuncturist recommended I take Zyflamend to reduce inflammation. Due to a sensitive stomach, I worked up from the Zyflamend Easy Caps (smaller capsule, smaller dose) to the Softgels over time. With this in my regime, I no longer need prescription anti-inflammatory - much better for me in the long run.
It works
Posted by Reviewer2870647 on Nov 16, 2010
This tonic actually works pretty well. I didnt take it for very long because i hated the taste of it. Im sensitive to tastes and smells, for some reason I get nauseous. I will save it for a flare up. Ive also discovored how much destressing, relaxation and positivity improves the pain and energy in my body so much that I practially feel totally healed! Even still i would definately recommend this product!:)
Groin Pull
Posted by Reviewer1415888 on Mar 22, 2011
Ive had these in my supplement cabinet for a few months. I pulled my groin playing Tennis but I thought I was ok to go play squash 2 days later. Since my groin muscle was already strained, I inflamed EVERY other muscle in that leg through them compensating for the groin pull. I took these pills as directed, went to the Rolfer and made sure to sleep 8+ hours. The pills definitely helped reduce the extraordinary pain i was going through.
Posted by Reviewer1088364 on Sep 11, 2010
Wife stopped using pain medication because of this. Had tried at least 5 other well rated formulas for arthritis-didnt work. This formula is the best. I have been reading and ordering vitamins for over 30 years. I have thrown out more vitamins than most of customers have ordered. This is the best formula.
Thankful for this produce
Posted by Reviewer2731599 on Sep 30, 2010
I was diagnosed with seronegative inflammatory arthritis approximately 2 years ago. Started taking Zyflamend, instead of Plaquenil which was recommended by my rheumatologist. After taking Zyflamend for a few weeks, the swelling in my knees almost completely resolved. I went off of Zyflamend twice in the past 2 years. The first time, the swelling returned after about a month. Started taking Zyflamend again with good effect. I recently went off it again, & again the swelling returned. Have been taking it for about 2 weeks & think it's starting to work. It seems to take a few weeks to see the full effect.

Grant-writing in the CMNST
Writing grants within the College
Research is an important part of the life of CMNST. As with every organization, department or entity, the College has a common set of processes that it uses to get things done. Here are just a few friendly reminders on how to most-efficiently get grants done within the College of Mathematics, Natural Sciences and Technology.
- Send first notification to the CMNST Dean & Department Chair of intent to prepare grant, and whether institutional support is desired. If the program limits the number of submissions per institution, please follow the procedure for Limited Submissions below.
- Complete on-line notification regarding intention to submit grant at Office of Sponsored Programs.
- If applicable, secure persons to write support letters (i.e., Dept Chairperson, Dean, Provost, President, Collaborators, external stakeholders, anyone who must deliver on a commitment for the project to succeed). Make sure to provide project information and/or draft letters to support letter-writers. Include a due date for letter receipt.
- Follow up on support-letters.
- Submit proposed budget for review to Chairperson, Dean's Office, and OSP. (Note: Any requests for commitment of release time, space, or other resources requires prior coordination with Dean at the start of budget development. Submit these proposals to Ms. Vanessa Nesbit for Letters of Commitment by the Dean.)
- Finalize budget—agreed upon by PI, OSP, Chairperson, and Dean.
- Submit final drafts of proposal, budget, & internal processing form to Dean's Office for Dean's signature and forward to the Office of Sponsored Programs 2-5 business days prior to agency deadline.
Also refer regularly to the Office of Sponsored Programs page links for specifics on institutional grant-writing protocols and important forms to be used pre-, post-grant award.
Limited submission RFPs:
** If you plan to submit a proposal to an agency with limitations on the number of applications that may be submitted per institution, use the procedure listed here:
CMNST Proposal Writing Priority Procedure
The purpose of this procedure is to streamline proposal applications for solicitations where the number of proposals per institution is limited by a funding agency.
Investigators interested in applying for a grant for which the funding agency limits the number of applications that can be submitted by each institution must submit the Proposal Writing Priority form (PWP) by email to the associate dean for research, Melissa Harrington, firstname.lastname@example.com at least 60 days before the agency deadline for the full proposal or 30 days before the deadline for a letter of intent or pre-proposal.
If more PWP forms are received by the internal deadline than the number of applications that are allowed, the associate dean for research, will convene an ad-hoc committee of two to four faculty members with related disciplinary expertise to read the PWPs and make recommendations for which application(s) should move forward based on the priorities of the College of Mathematics, Natural Science & Technology and the likelihood of the application being successful.
The ad-hoc limited submission committee and associate dean for research will make recommendations to the Dean of CMNST and prospective PIs will be notified whether they will be able to submit the application no later than 45 days before the agency deadline for a full proposal, 20 days for letters of intent/pre-proposals.
Once PIs have been notified that they are approved for submission of the proposal, they must also complete the Faculty Proposal Response form at the Office of Sponsored Programs (OSP). Submitting the OSP form by itself will not establish priority for submission without completing the CMNST Proposal Writing Priority form as well.
If no PWP forms are received by the internal cut-off date of 60 days before the deadline for a full proposal or 30 days before the deadline of a pre-proposal/letter of intent, then priority for submission will be granted on a first-come, first-served basis. Investigators interested in applying for a limited submission grant for which the internal deadline has already passed should contact the associate dean for research and/ OSP to find out if the submission slots are still open. Priority for submission is not established by the Faculty Proposal Response form at OSP, but by submitting a request/inquiry to the Associate Dean for Research.

Eric Drexler (Chief Technical Advisor to Nanorex)
Abstract. An engineering-based methodology can answer a limited but illuminating range of questions about the potential of physical technology. This line of inquiry leads to a more specific question: What can physics tell us about the potential scope of atomically precise fabrication technologies? Today's knowledge shows that this scope embraces productive nanotechnologies that can transform the material basis of civilization.

Brick wall
Justin, I was in the same position as you, long time lurker but never a poster. The answer is simple. Visit a a few providers that don't have a strong reference policy and report back on the board. You earn extra points if they are girls not often reviewed. Earn your stripes and in no time you will have a track record that gives you the needed credibility with more restrictive providers.

The local economy is based primarily on agribusiness and tourism with higher education and light manufacturing also playing important roles. Cattle ranching and farming (cotton, peanuts, wheat, alfalfa and hay) with 11,000 irrigated acres comprises the local agricultural activity.
Donley County is home to several historic sites, including the Donley County Courthouse; Clarendon College; Saints Roost Museum, many churches which were the first in the Panhandle for their denomination, and historic homes such as the S.W. Lowe home.
