RNC Chairman Candidate is Pro-life / Pro-Marriage By Penny Starr December 16, 2008
Q&A with Michael Steele, Candidate for RNC Chairman
Former Maryland Lt. Gov. Michael Steele is already working to put Republicans in office as chairman of GOPAC, the party's political action committee.Now he hopes to take the helm of the Republican National Committee (RNC), a chairmanship he is vying for against as many as nine other party loyalists.A self-described "pro-life Catholic," Steele has been criticized for some remarks he made during his run for the Senate in 2006 and his affiliation with the pro-abortion group, Republican Leadership Council.Steele is no stranger to the national political scene, having grown up in Washington, D.C. He earned his law degree from Georgetown University Law Center and was the first black to be elected chairman of his state's party. He also was the first black to be elected to statewide office in Maryland.He spoke with CNSNews.com on Friday to share his views and to say how he would lead the Republican Party leading up to the 2010 and 2012 elections.CNSNews.com: Would you support a state law in Maryland that bans same-sex unions?Steele: Sure, we've been fighting that fight in Maryland now for three sessions of our legislature, and it is very clear, we've stated very clearly and reemphasized the sanctity of marriage between a man and a woman – and have taken the argument directly to the people, and the legislators so far have not been able to muster the votes to put that constitutional amendment in place. They've looked to Massachusetts and Connecticut and other states that have tried – and some cases been successful and other cases not – to figure out the ground game, and each time we come back with the core argument. I think that is going to be the battleground for many states and the Republican Party in my view – not only in terms of having a national voice on the issue where you can speak more generically, but you can speak specifically state by state reflecting back the values and the culture of the communities that make up that state. And clearly we saw in California with Proposition 8 a very clear signal by the voters there. And I love how 52 or 53 percent is an insignificant number. It's an insignificant number when you lose.CNSNews.com: The 2008 Republican Party platform supports the constitutional amendment to protect marriage as a union between one man and a woman. Do you support that?Steele: Yes, as chairman of the party I absolutely would support that, because it is in our platform. It is something that the political and activist members of the Republican Party in convention have put into the platform. My personal caution has always been thinking twice and being very careful when you start tinkering around with the federal Constitution. Certain matters are better fought state by state. But when you have in place the desire for a national mandate to bring about clarity, then it's a legitimate point of discussion. So, our platform calls for that, and as chairman I absolutely will support it.CNSNews.com: On another Republican platform issue that has come up repeatedly over the years since it was first put in place during the Ronald Reagan presidential nomination. You've been asked about it before, including during an interview with Tim Russert on "Meet the Press" in 2006, and he asked you about the abortion issue. Also, on the Web site for Christy Todd Whitman's company (The Whitman Strategy Group) that you help found the Republican Leadership Council, which falls into the pro-abortion side of the issue. Let me read to you from that transcript.Transcript from "Meet the Press," Oct. 29, 2006Russert: Another issue that has emerged in the campaign. Here's the latest headline. "Religious leaders and abortion foes are pumping more than $140,000 into the final weeks of the Maryland U.S. Senate contest to motivate 'values voters' by elevating such issues as abortion and same-sex marriage. National Right to Life's political action committee plans to run radio commercials on [Michael] Steele's behalf ... and has spent more than $72,000 supporting [his] candidacy with ads and mail." The National Abortion Rights Action League supporting your campaign, Mr. Cardin. The issue is being engaged. And let me ask each of you. Mr. Steele, if you're a United States Senator, would you vote for a constitutional amendment to outlaw abortion?Steele: I don't--vote for a constitutional amendment to outlaw abortion? I think we'd have to have that get to the Supreme Court, wouldn't we? I haven't seen that bill proposed. I don't think... Russert: That's been introduced in the Senate.Steele: I don't think anyone's going to propose that this day.Russert: So you wouldn't do that?Steele: No.Russert: Would, would you encourage--would you hope the U.S. Supreme Court overturns Roe vs. Wade? Steele: I think that that's a matter that's going to rightly belong to the courts to decide ultimately whether or not that, that issue should be addressed. The, the Court has taken the position, which I agree, stare decisis, which means that the law is as it is and, and so this is a matter that's ultimately going to be adjudicated at the states. We're seeing that. The states are beginning to decide for themselves on, on this and a host of other issues. And the Supreme Court would ultimately decide that.Russert: But you hope that the Court keeps Roe v. Wade in place?Steele: I think the Court will evaluate the law as society progresses, as the Court is supposed to do.Russert: But what's your position? Do you want them to sustain it or overturn it?Steele: Well, I think, I think, I think Roe v. Wade, Roe v. Wade is a, is a matter that should've been left to the states to decide, ultimately. But it, it is where it is today, and the courts will ultimately decide whether or not this, this gets addressed by the states, goes back to the states in some form or they overturn it outright.Russert: Is it your desire that they keep it in place?Steele: My desire is that we follow what stare decisis is at this point, yes.CNSNews.com: OK, the Republican Party Platform says: "Faithful to the first guarantee of the Declaration of Independence, we assert the inherent dignity and sanctity of all human life and affirm that the unborn child has a fundamental, individual right to life that cannot be infringed. We support a human life amendment to the Constitution, and we endorse legislation to make clear that the Fourteenth Amendment's protections apply to unborn children. We oppose using public revenues to promote or perform abortion and will not fund organizations which advocate it. We support the appointment of judges who respect traditional family values and the sanctity and dignity of innocent human life."Do you agree with that?Steele: Again, I am a pro-life Roman Catholic. And I have always been that way. I have always viewed that issue from that perspective. What you saw in the exchange with me and the late, great host of "Meet the Press" was two Catholic boys doing a little jockeying, because I knew exactly where Tim was trying to go. I remember saying to him when we were on commercial break, 'You know exactly what the deal is. Why are you trying to trick out something here? You're a good Catholic boy. Behave yourself. So we were joking about it. The long and short of it is what I was trying to say, and I admit, probably inarticulately in doing so at the time, that the court would not necessarily just willy nilly change Roe vs. Wade. The court believes in the concept of the law having grown its own legs … the court would need a case to come before it that would move it to change. So I was trying that point. The court is not going to just up and change Roe vs. Wade no matter the number of justices who support its overturn, because those justices – if they are true Republican picks who honor tradition of the court and who are strict constructionists – they are not going to willy nilly do that to fulfill some political agenda. So that's what I was trying to say. My personal view is Roe vs. Wade was wrongly decided, which is why I made the point that it should have been left to the individual states to have that battle and to have the communities decide for themselves what they would pay for, what they wouldn't pay for, what they would accept and what they won't accept, very much like what is being played on with the gay marriage bill. And so, my point was that from a judicial standpoint – and this is what I get for being a lawyer I guess – but from a judicial standpoint, nothing presented to the court so far to move it to act to strike Roe vs. Wade.The case has not come before it yet. You have to fight for a decision like that. The votes are there. So why hasn't it happened? Because these judges, the five-justice majority, are strict constructionists, and they are not going to willy nilly decide on a political whim. So that was the point with Tim. With respect to the (Republican Party) platform, again, I go back to my basic point. I don't need to be chairman of the party to support that plank.That is something that is paramount for me, because you are talking about the sanctity of all life, born and the unborn. And I think it's important for this country to move itself away from this culture of death that we've sort of fallen into, as noted by (Pope) John Paul II. And I think it is important that our political leadership – that has the opportunity to use the bully pulpit – to speak to that sanctity of life, and it should do so. As we move to the beginnings of a new administration where the president of the country has a very, very clear view on matters related to abortion, very, very pro-abortion, that it is going to be incumbent upon Republicans, incumbent upon those who are pro-life, who hold the sanctity of life dear to be able to rise and speak to that and to challenge what I think are going to be some really dark legislation that's going to come out of (the 111th) Congress under this administration.CNSNews.com: Ronald Reagan, and most recently John McCain, supported eliminating the Department of Education. Do you agree?Steele: You know, I'm going to be very honest with you, because that's how I try to approach these things. I've been back and forth on that, and I'll tell you why. At the end of the day, I think my view is, the more we empower school systems within states to educate, and the more we move away from having this subtle finger sort of poking you in the eye and poking you in the back, and trying to direct outcomes, I think the better off we're going to be longer-term. Because individual communities know how to educate their kids, they have a sense of who's performing well and why, who's struggling and who isn't. So let them put in play, let's take those federal dollars and create grants back to the states. We're paying the federal tax and a portion of that money goes to this current department – let's break that up and put those dollars back to work on the ground. The bureaucracy that it is right now, I see streamlining, and, look, I'm talking about a guy behind the desk with a checkbook.CNSNews.com: So, yes or no, would you support eliminating the Department of Education?Steele: I don't know, to be honest, I don't know. I mean, and you know what? Anyone who gives you a yes or no answer I think is being a little disingenuous, because you don't know. Things have changed from 25 years ago. And, I think, if you are going down that road, you need to take a wholesale analysis and look at it, not in the bureaucratic way but just, okay, what is the practical outcome we're trying to reach here? Do we just want to feel good by eliminating the Department of Education? Or are we trying to reach some practical outcome on behalf of students, and will this further that outcome? And I think I want to do that before I said yes about something like that. CNSNews.com: Under George W. Bush, his No Child Left Behind program increased spending by the Department of Education. Did you support his No Child Left Behind policy?Steele: I supported the idea, and I've criticized the implementation and the execution, because again you've created a bureaucracy in which you have put unfunded mandates on state education systems that they can't meet. And so, to that extent, it is not productive, and it is not useful, it is not helpful. Nor is it helpful when we, as we do with most of these situations, we impose by mandate federal policy, and no one goes back and revisits the policy, and sees whether or not it's working, and what impact is it having on students … and the teachers of this country. I did a year-and-a-half long study of our educational system in Maryland, and I sat down and spoke with over 1,000 teachers face-to-face – face-to-face, with over 1,000 teachers, and every one of them … would tell me that their problem isn't so much with the idea of No Child Left Behind, because it helps to push the kids to a certain reading level and standard. But they're not looking at the impact it's having on the teachers, that they're now forced to teach to test, basically. So they spend three-quarters of the year preparing these kids to take this one exam. And then they squeeze in everything else the kids need to learn in the last quarter of the year. That's not education. And so, from my point of view, if you're going to do something like that, then let's incorporate the teachers and get their input and make sure we're doing it right so that they get the benefit of it so that they can pass that benefit on to the kids.CNSNews.com: The Republican group rebuildtheparty.com has a 10 point plan to rebuild the party, with the No. 1 priority being using the Internet as a tool. Do you agree?Steele: Oh, absolutely. I'm one of the biggest techno-geeks out here. You'll find me on the net at all hours of the night surfin,' bloggin,' finding out what's goin' on. Doing the Twitter thing, doing the Facebook thing, and it's time to be connected. How else can I be effective in my leadership of GOPAC and ultimately my leadership of the party if I don't know what this generation is doing, how they communicate with each other? How do I reach them if I'm sending them a piece of mail, and they're getting their mail on their telephone? So the question begs itself, what does the party do to make itself technologically relevant? Well, first off, you've got to recognize that times have changed and we've gotta' catch up to those times. But then, not only do we catch up, how do we improve on the times, how do we create the next level? And that's something that I want to see us do. I want to take some of the smartest minds in technology and bring them into the RNC and have them work with me to create a new strategy, a new paradigm, if you will, on how we reach voters and how we message our issues, so that we're defining the landscape for us, and we're not being defined, or allowing ourselves to be defined, by our political opponents. So I'm looking for a technological renaissance for the GOP, where we're going to bring in all kinds of things, creating an intra-net among the state parties so that we can share practices and new ideas – but also learn where there are mistakes and pitfalls that we need to be aware of. And having that communication, that dialogue, that relationship established among each other, I think better prepares us to go out and reach new voters, and certainly those younger voters who are of a 30-second soundbite mindset. If I can't reach you and communicate to you within 30 to 45 seconds, you're not hearing me. And so we've got to sharpen that tool so that we can do just that.CNSNews.com: Did you support George W. Bush's Medicare prescription plan?Steele: No. It's just further expansion of government. I know a lot of people who say it works and everybody's happy with it, but it's more money. It's expanding the size of bureaucracy. It's putting another layer of government between me and my wallet. I didn't appreciate it then, and I don't appreciate it now. Instead of focusing on a genuine, legitimate health care strategy that would make it affordable, that would be market-based, that would create the appropriate incentives for the insurance companies to stop acting like numb nuts, and the pharmaceutical industry stop acting so defensively, and actually coordinating and working, Lord knows the trial lawyers. Getting all these folks in the room and developing a comprehensive health care strategy. We created another silo in which we're going to spend more money, and we're going to create another level of bureaucracy. So I think we need to re-think that strategy, and I think the party has an appropriate voice to do that.CNSNews.com: Did you support the comprehensive immigration reform proposed during the Bush administration?Steele: Don't even get me started on that one. This is a classic case of looking around to find that no one's standing with you. The short answer is, no, I did not. The right answer, I think, the administration should have come up with was border security first. And let me give you an example. If you and I are in a boat in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay, and the boat springs a leak, what's the first thing we need to do? Stop the leak. Plug the hole. Now if we start trying to bail water out of the boat, or push it to one side of the boat, or effectively deal with the water in the boat, the boat's still going to sink, because you haven't addressed the core problem, which is you've got a hole in your boat. The same is true with immigration. The core problem is that you've got a hole in the fence. Plug the hole. Use technology, use manpower, use all the strategies that you need to secure the national borders of this country. And then we can talk about the 12 million people who are here illegally, what we're going to do. I think America will be much more receptive to that conversation knowing that no more are coming in and that the hole has been closed. And then we can deal effectively with the water in the boat.CNSNewsom: How do we deal with the 12 million who are here illegally?Steele: Well, that's something for the national debate. There are any number of ways that you have to deal with that. Do you want to create a pathway to citizenship? Are you talking amnesty? Ronald Reagan did amnesty. He did the first amnesty bill. A lot of people tend to forget that. In 1986, what was the problem? There was no effective strategy to deal with what? The hole in the fence. They kept coming. And 20 years later, what are we looking at? 12 million additional people, the hole has gotten bigger, and the problem hasn't gone away. America's response to amnesty was, 'Not again, if you don't fix the hole. If you don't close down that border and make sure that no one else is getting over the fence, or under the fence, or through the fence.' That's what everyone sees as the problem. It's not the individuals who are here, necessarily. It's the ones who are still coming in, because our border is porous. Every other country protects its sovereignty, and no one cracks a peep. The United States rises up and says, 'We too shall protect the sovereignty of this nation by protecting our borders,' and everyone looks at us like we're enemies of the state. Well, we'll keep looking that way because we're going to deal with this issue, and we're going to effectively do what we need to do as Americans to make sure the integrity of this country, its internal integrity, is secure. And then we can talk about everything else. Everything else -- jobs, programs, employers -- all that stuff you can deal with much more effectively, because now you're dealing with a smaller pool of folks because there are no more coming in.CNSNews.com: What is the first thing you would do as the new chairman of the Republican National Committee?Steele: I would embrace our base and welcome them back to the party and tell them now is time to roll our sleeves and get to work to building a farm team, raising money, organizing our precincts, looking at the strategies that we're going to need to unfold if we get into re-apportioning and re-districting in 2009 and 2010. I would say to our donors, okay, you've sat on the fence long enough. It's time to get in the game to help us rebuild and strengthen this party financially so that we can put in place those strategies and do that technology on the Internet and reach those voters that you want us to reach. I think the next chairman is going to have to begin by making sure that the base stands with him or her and making sure that they've got the charge to lead forward. And then you begin to deal with all the internal stuff, the operational changes you need to make, to put in place this new infrastructure. Part of that for me is going to be devolving the activities of the RNC back to the states, empowering individual states to be the political power horse for winning elections. Washington does not know how to run a campaign in Wisconsin or New Mexico, or Maryland, or New York. But New York, New Mexico, Maryland, or Wisconsin do know how to run those campaigns. So let's trust the leadership of those states, and hold them accountable, but trust them to help build this operation. And we will support them, we will empower them and we will, again, using things like the intra-net, find those best practices so that they can do the jobs that they need to do.

Award Negotiation & Acceptance
Awards are received by the University of Maryland on behalf of the Principal Investigator (PI). While the PI assumes the responsibility for financial oversight and completion of the work, the University remains legally responsible for the award. Therefore, all awards must conform to University policy and procedure.
Acceptance of an award requires a number of steps:
- ORA receives award notification from the sponsor.
- ORA reviews the terms & conditions. (For some Request for Proposals (RFP's), the process may begin before an award is made).
- Sponsor initiated pre-award negotiations require ORA to verify budget details and confirm all rates quoted in the proposal.
- ORA enters into formal negotiations with the sponsor, including reviewing and negotiating the terms and clauses such as copyrights, patents, indemnification, default and termination clauses, deliverable schedule, invoicing, data rights, etc.
- After all parties agree upon the contract's content, the University accepts the award.
- Once all terms are negotiated, and mutually acceptable, signatures are obtained from the sponsor and UM, and then an account can be created by the Sponsored Programs Accounting & Compliance (SPAC).
- The Principal Investigator will receive an Award Transaction Notification generated by COEUS containing pertinent award information and the account number established for this project.
Start Date
The University is not authorized to spend funds prior to the official start. This date is predicated upon acceptance of all terms of the award by both parties (see below for possible exceptions). Effective dates for grants are usually set by the sponsor in the award. Faculty members have access to the funds as soon as the account number is issued by the Comptroller's Office. Contracts are not as predictable; in some cases the start date is specific and in others it is determined by the final signature date. The final signatory may be the University or the sponsor, depending on the contract.
Expenditures and Financial Records
Some federal sponsors have granted universities expanded authorities e.g. DOE, EPA, NIH, NASA, NSF, USDA. In these cases, the PI can request pre-award costs, travel costs, and no-cost extensions and ORA can approve these requests. Advanced Account Number Authorization (AANA) may be granted prior to an award's acceptance when there is a solid commitment from the sponsor. The PI's department assumes all risk in covering expenditures in advance of receipt of the award.
General Responsibilities
Individual departments manage award funds and initiate and monitor all expenditures. The University assumes legal responsibility for funded projects.
Faculty Responsibilities
- The PI is responsible for the management and conduct of research activities, including technical reporting activities.
- All technical reports and project deliverables are the full responsibility of the PI.
- The PI must also initiate correspondence with the sponsor's administrative or program manager to request programmatic or budgetary changes.
- All requests for budgetary changes must be sent through ORA for counter signature before submission to the sponsor.
- The PI must initiate requests to issue subawards for collaborations with external entities.
Personnel assigned to sponsored projects, like all other personnel, must be appointed and compensated in keeping with State and University personnel rules. The U.S. Office of Management and Budget (OMB) requires that the University maintain records that will substantiate the effort of each individual charged to a sponsored project. Therefore, time records must be carefully maintained. For faculty, staff, and graduate assistants, effort is recorded on the Effort Report form distributed to each faculty investigator by the Office of Cost Accounting two times a year.
In order to issue a subcontract, the Principal Investigator/Department must first submit the Subaward Request Form along with a proposed statement of work, detailed budget and budget justification and other relevant supporting documentation. ORA will prepare, negotiate and issue the subcontract. Once the subcontract has been signed by both the University and the subcontractor, the subcontract amount is encumbered in the project KFS account. For more information on subcontracting, go to Subawards page.
In order for vendors to be paid, invoices from the subcontractor must be reviewed and approved by the PI/Department first, and then forwarded to the Accounts Payable Office for payment.

Acclaimed French cinematographer Yves Angelo ("Germinal,""Tous Les Matins du monde") makes a self-assured and uncommonly satisfying directorial debut with "Colonel Chabert," a fascinating period drama that boasts the star power of Gerard Depardieu and Fanny Ardant and literary pedigree of Balzac. It's a winning combination that should help U.S. distrib October Films score a critical and commercial hit on the arthouse circuit when pic begins platform release at year's end.
Angelo boldly establishes his command of the medium in drama's mesmerizing opening sequence, a haunting depiction of the sorting out of fatalities after the 1807 Battle of Eylau. The soundtrack swells with the mournful second movement of Beethoven's Trio in D Major, Op. 70 (the "Ghost" trio) — the only sound heard during the otherwise silent sequence — while bodies are stripped of uniforms and valuables and prepared for mass burial. But in that group of nameless, faceless dead lies a man who is still alive, if just barely.
Trouble is, it takes Colonel Chabert (Depardieu) a decade to recover and make his way back to Paris. When he returns, he finds he is officially listed as dead. His "widow" (Ardant) has claimed his fortune and taken a new husband, the politically ambitious Count Ferraud (Andre Dussollier). Not surprisingly, Countess Ferraud — who has two children by her second spouse — refuses to acknowledge the disheveled and wild-eyed stranger as her late husband.
The source material is Balzac's classic novel, but the mood is deliciously Dickensian in the law office where Chabert goes to file a lawsuit to regain his name, wife and fortune. His case is accepted by Derville (Fabrice Luchini), a brilliant and much-admired lawyer who could teach modern-day attorneys a thing or two about the fine art of legal hardball.
It may be difficult to imagine anyone stealing a pic from Depardieu and Ardant, but Luchini comes impressively close to such grand larceny with his stylish, sharp-witted portrayal of Derville.[ October would do well to consider a campaign for a best supporting actor nomination in the Oscar sweepstakes. ]
But Depardieu is the one who ultimately dominates "Colonel Chabert." His performance and the pic itself may remind many of another case of dubious identity, "The Return of Martin Guerre." But Depardieu, looking appreciably trimmer than he has in quite some time, does not attempt to repeat his earlier triumph. His work here is a fresh, carefully calibrated mix of enigmatic brooding, volcanic rage and obsessive cunning.
Ardant is equally effective as Countess Ferraud, a woman who has risen from squalid beginnings by thoroughly reinventing herself.
Ardant and Depardieu (reunited onscreen for the first time since Francois Truffaut's second-to-last feature, 1981's "The Woman Next Door") develop an emotionally diverse give and take that is rich with anger, irony and ambiguity. A scene in which Derville vainly attempts to get the couple to agree to an out-of-court settlement is only the most obvious of several scenes that resound with a provocative contemporary relevance.
Except for the stunning opening and a few briefly glimpsed battlefield panoramas, Angelo keeps the action up-close and personal. Some auds may find the early scenes excessively talky. But many more ticketbuyers will appreciate Angelo's willingness to emphasize the harsh poetry he and co-screenwriters Jean Cosmos and Veronique Lagrange have adapted from Balzac.
As Count Ferraud, Dussollier has relatively few scenes, but he makes the absolute most of his character's ambiguities. Other supporting players, including budding French star Romane Bohringer ("The Accompanist") in a cameo bit as a maid, are excellent.
Technically, "Colonel Chabert" is outstanding across the board. Bernard Lutic's cinematography, Franca Squarciapino's costumes and Bernard Vezat's art direction vividly enhance the period flavor. The musical score consists entirely of classic selections aptly chosen by Angelo. Expect strong sales for a soundtrack album.

EPA gasoline economy ratings aren't out for the 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity nonetheless it shouldn't differ much from the 2017 design, which can be ranked at 25/31 mpg city/highway in front-drive designs and 24/30 mpg with all-wheel drive. A diesel-powered is expected to arrive sooner or later throughout the next pair years.
In NHTSA testing, the 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity acquired a four-star over all security score (out of a probable five stars). The IIHS has yet to test the 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity but the 2017 model received a Great score on all crashworthiness checks except the individual part small overlap influence wherever it hasn't been accident tested and the headlights check where it acquired an Appropriate score (Good is the highest possible score). In the front crash elimination check, the CX-5 obtained a Superior rating following it prevented 12- and a 25-mph collisions (Superior is the greatest probable status in the front accident prevention test). Consequently, the mazda CX-5 received the 2018 Top Safety Pick+ merit from the IIHS

We loved the 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity fresh steering, fast accelerator answer, and calmer cabin thanks to additional sound deadening. Its managing chops extended to impress wherever it thought right at home on twisting streets and didn't show much human anatomy roll.
The 2017 CX-5 lost a contrast test to the 2017 Honda CR-V because of the latter's remarkable energy economy, cheaper of control, more large inside, and is almost on level with the mazda when it comes to operating dynamics. Although the CX-5 characteristics an inside that's more magnificent thanks to the considerable utilization of higher quality materials. Nevertheless, the CX-5's chairs do not have significantly support and feel flat.
The 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity was the first mazda vehicle to function the automaker's new deconstructed grille design.
mazda offers 2018 mazda cx-5 fuel tank capacity at Good Industry Value $ 25,019 – $ 30,000.

Several years have past,but I can still recall the anguish I felt during one particular visit with my then psychiatrist. Before I explain, let me give you just a little bit of what led up to this visit. My family doctor diagnosed me with fibromyalgia, and had been treating me for some time. After trying several different medications to manage my depression and anxiety, my doctor decided I needed more help than he could provide. He told me that I needed to see a psychiatrist; I immediately burst into tears. Before fibromyalgia I was not the crying type, especially in front of other people, but these tears gave no warning; they escaped my eyes before I knew they were even there. He asked why I was crying and I didn't know exactly. I was supposed to be strong and able to push through this. I was supposed to be better already, and he was telling me I was worse off than I thought.
My First Psychiatrist
I went to my first psychiatrist for about a year. He tweaked my medication and I started feeling better. I told him one of my meds was making me extremely groggy in the morning, and that I thought I needed a change. His response was something like, well you don't work so what difference does it make. Really?! I have kids, I wanted to go back to work, I wanted to get better! He didn't get it; I stopped going.
The Worst Doctor Visit I've Ever Had
I eventually found a new psychiatrist. After a few visits that seemed to be going well; (at least he talked to me for more than five minutes) it all went wrong. If I thought the first psychiatrist was insensitive to my situation, I was in for a rude awakening.
This new doctor told me he knew people with fibromyalgia that got better, and that I was acting helpless. Helpless? I asked him why he felt that way. He told me that people usually came to him with goals and I didn't seem to have any.
I couldn't believe a doctor could be so cruel. It was horrible; I immediately started crying (again), walked out, cried all the way home and never went back. I was lost, stuck in a depressed state, struggling with anxiety that caused panic attacks, and I needed help. I was in the midst of a divorce and at an all time low. I didn't know how I was going to be able to keep going. I had marriage problems, a disability appeal, two kids to raise, and I didn't know how I was going to pay the bills if I didn't get approved for disability. Couldn't he see that he was kicking me when I was already down? It was condescending. How could he say thatword to me? It stung, it felt like a punch to the gut, I was broken.
Was I ReallyActing Helpless?
I told my parents and brother, (a doctor himself), what this doctor had told me. They listened as I cried and asked if he was right; if I was acting helpless and I just didn't see it. My family reassured me that I was not acting helpless. Had I been acting helpless I would not have been trying so hard to get better. I had dragged myself to so many doctor appointments, physical therapy, had blood tests, neurological tests, MRIs, tried numerous medications, and went to therapy…. That Dr. was wrong. A helpless person would have simply given up on getting better. I had/have major depression and generalized anxiety disorder among other conditions, and I needed help learning how to deal with it. He expected me to have answers when all I had was questions.
We expect our doctors to be compassionate and help us. They take an oath to do no harm, and this doctor hurt me to my core. Since he was a doctor treating people with mental health issues he should have had some idea that telling me I was acting helpless would do more harm than good.
On a Brighter Note
I later found a psychologist who was very empathetic and helped me tremendously. He asked me questions and listened to my thoughts, worries and desperation. He worked with my regular family doctor on tweaking my meds, andgave me strategies to manage my condition. It helped.
Now I see a psychiatrist to manage my depression and anxiety meds. He doesn't spend much time with me since his role is not to provide therapy, but to handle my medications. I can see that he believes what I am telling him and he shows compassion. He always asks me how I am doing. I always say that I am tired. He always questions why. Fibromyalgia I remind him. Then we talk about my medications and he tells me to call him if I have any problems. It never fails that the last thing he says to me is to go home and get some rest because I am making him tired by just looking at me. I may have to remind him of things, but he has never used words that hurt and for that, I am grateful.
Has a doctor hurt you? How did you deal with it.

Last week,the B.B.C. News ran a feature about a tribe found in the forests of Southern Peru.They were found only by chance,due to the logging being carried out in their region,whether legally or illegally.This tribe made it quite clear that they did not want to have anything to do with outsiders.They have,in all probability,been living in this area for centuries,quite happily,until now.I suppose that if de-forestation gathers apace,they,like the North American Indians(natural people of that Continent) will be "forced" into the twenty first century,whether they like it or not.We are the"lost tribes"not them.That expression is "totally" true when referring to ourselves. There have been numerous wars,for centuries.Greediness abounds,in today's world.The poor suffer at the hands of the rich who line their pockets.Those whom have want more and more.

Willie gets 'freedom of Free State'
Cheetahs coach Naka Drotské has given his Springbok fullback Willie le Roux free rein in this year's Super Rugby competition.
The Cheetahs, based in the Free State capital Bloemfontein, play host to the Lions in the first game of the new season on Saturday – which also marks the Lions' return to Super Rugby.
Drotské said he will not only look to his whole side to deliver the goods in the Free State Stadium, but will also bank on Le Roux conjuring up a magical performance.
Playing for the Springboks Le Roux showed that his sometimes unconventional approach to the game can turn any match on its head and Drotské has chosen not to restrict such a special player to within the traditional team structures.
"Willie is one of about five percent of those players in the world that you cannot bind within your conventional structures. He has shown in the past that his decision-making is probably the best of any player in South Africa," Drotské said.
"I believe it will be fatal if we hamper his skills by forcing him to adhere to our structures. He always gets the benefit of the doubt and he always makes the right decisions. He has the freedom to do whatever he wants on the playing field."
A tough opening match between the two sides is expected as both the Cheetahs and Lions have much to prove.
The hosts will want to show that their good performance in last year's competition was no fluke, while the Lions will want a good start after missing out in 2013.
"There is definitely pressure on us, it won't help to deny that. But we are confident we can reach the play-offs this year, therefore, it isn't negative pressure," the coach said.
"Our supporters and sponsors now know that we can compete with the best and it is important that we don't disappoint them."
One area where the Cheetahs will be tested is in midfield, where a new centre combination of Johann Sadie and Francois Venter will want to prove their dominance early on.
Former Bulls centre Venter comes into the line-up in the absence of Robert Ebersohn who now plays for French club Montpelier.
"Our new centre combination of Johann Sadie and Francois Venter is gelling very well. It is always difficult to replace a player like Robert Ebersohn with regards to intensity and defence.
"Francois has shown he is good on the attack but also that he is no weak defender. He will be one of the surprises of the season."
While the Lions will have to make due without injured Bok flyhalf Elton Jantjies, the Cheetahs welcome back stalwart Johan Goosen after a lengthy injury. Cheetahs back line coach Hawies Fourie is confident the flyhalf is back to his very best.
"He's had a 120 minutes of rugby since recovering from his injury. He is at a better place now than he was a year ago," Fourie said.
"He is kicking very well and has been slotting them over from his own ten metre line during the week. We believe he is 100 percent fit and raring to go."
The Lions will arrive in Bloemfontein with a team consisting of more youngster than experienced veterans. Seasoned stalwarts like lock Franco van der Merwe, replacement hooker Willie Wepener and flanker Derick Minnie have played more Super Rugby games between them than the rest of the Lions side combined.

27-year-old Ida Engberg started DJing hip hop and soul aged 14 after a boyfriend showed her how to mix, but she says "I had absolutely no plans on becoming a DJ, I just saw it as a new way to listen to and interact with music and I loved it!"
After several residencies in the beginning, a move to Marbella brought 8 months of club gigs, followed by a season in Ibiza which inspired Ida musically like no other place. "I had fallen deeply in love with the minimal techno sound so it was perfect at the time. At the end of the season, Ida returned to Stockholm landing a top residency at Cocktail Club, the best underground club in Stockholm. "Stockholm is a great platform for electronic music. There are so many great producers and DJs living here and people really support each other." Although DJing is her first love, it was only a matter of time before Ida tried her hand at production. Her first effort was the massive Disco Volante - signed by John Dahlbäck to his Pickadoll label and released in 2007 with a Sebastien Leger remix it became a huge hit all over the world, featuring on compilations from Ministry of Sound, Defected in the House and Pacha Ibiza. It charted across the whole of Europe. Two more tracks have followed on Get Physical and Pickadoll plus a remix for Dada Life. She can be found playing her brand of minimal, techno and tech house in clubs all over the world every weekend, and her love of what she does is obvious to all. Playing unplanned sets allows her to respond to the crowd, she's rocked parties and clubs. Lately she also took part in the Drumcode parties with Swedish companion Adam Beyer.
Ida started to work with AM Only and in November and December 2009 she's doing her second tour through the U.S. where she's really looking forward to!

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated." ~ Mahatma Gandhi, Indian Statesman and Philosopher
I'm here to raise money for two causes that are very close to me. Animals Rights & Welfare and Mental Illness Awareness.
Everyday thousands of them suffer cruelty, exploitation and neglect. This isn't right and change is happening but at a slow pace. I'm here to help raise money for different animal protective organizations. Whether it's the ASPCA, United States Humane Society, or the local shelter; they all depend on the kindness and generosity of others to continue all the hard work they do. With work and four dogs of my own to take care of at home, I felt bad that I don't have the time to do as much volunteer work that I used to do. With this site, I'm able to do something I love (RUN), for a reason I love (animals).
There are five very easy examples of this - Ranger, Lily, Roxy, Chewy & Bear. These are dogs my family and I have rescued and adopted over the years. Their stories had a happy ending, but there are many animals out there that are not as lucky. Help me raise money to support these organizations so more animals can have happy ending too.
Besides Animal Rights, I also am working to increase my advocacy for mental illness awareness. I know from personal experience the importance speaking up against the stigma and promoting the awareness of mental illness.
Mental illnesses are serious medical illnesses. They cannot be overcome through "will power" and are not related to a person's "character" or intelligence. Mental illness falls along a continuum of severity. Even though mental illness is widespread in the population, the main burden of illness is concentrated in a much smaller proportion-about 6 percent, or 1 in 17 Americans-who live with a serious mental illness. The National Institute of Mental Health reports that One in four adults-approximately 57.7 million Americans-experience a mental health disorder in a given year.

1. These are the photos that my sister and I took in the photobooth at the look show, new look offered hats and sunnies to wear and as you can see I chose a huge floppy hat and white ray ban esque sunnies. I look so summery!
2. So you all probably know I went to the look show on saturday, and It was all pretty crazy really. I had such a lovely time and there will be two posts on it, first being my view on the whole collections and the second on my whole time in London.
3. I met lots of wonderful bloggers - Lily, Michelle, Victoria, Laura & other blogger finalists Sara, Nneoma, Maffionista and Amelia. I am a little miffed I didn't stay and chat and take pictures with them or anything for very long, I was actually late to the show due to late tubes and check ins and I'm just a late person in general (woops) so I was pretty rushed off my feet! But it was so lovely to meet you all and surreal to actually speak to the faces behind your wonderful blogs! (and sorry if I missed anyone out!)
4. I'm pretty tired from my amazing weekend, and I came home to three lovely ebay packages with a new dress, playsuit and leather shorts! It was a nice surprise and I'm now going to go off and have a nice takeaway and an early night. Speak to you all tomorrowww :)

Phillips "Cowboys" Up For Vertigo Crime
A supposedly race-motivated nightclub shooting changes the lives of two undercover officers in "Cowboys," the newest original graphic novel from mystery and crime writer Gary Phillips and artist Brian Hurtt. Hitting shelves this July as part of the DC Comics' Vertigo Crime line, Phillips spoke with CBR News about the novel, comparing "Cowboys" to contemporary cop shows like Fox's "Chicago Code" and the work of crime writer Elmore Leonard, saying the story "definitely has a contemporary cop drama feel…since it is set in the urban center and much more deals with some issues around race."
Told through flashbacks, the graphic novel "is about two undercover law enforcement officers: one is a kind of street cop's street cop, Deke Kotto," said Phillips. A black police officer, Kotto "goes undercover at the behest of his captain who is positioning himself to be the new police chief, so he has a political agenda at work to sending Deke in." On the other end of the case is white FBI agent Tim Brady, who is sent in by his boss operating off a tip. Things quickly become complicated due to the fact that, though both Deke and Tim are on the same case, neither is told of the other's presence. "For most of their case, they aren't even aware of each other, because their agencies don't talk. The police don't talk to the FBI, the FBI don't talk to the cops — partly because they all want to maintain their own credit and control the case from their end," Phillips explained.
Switching back and forth between Deke and Tim's perspectives, the novel relies on its unusual structure to tell Phillips' story, starting with the climax and working its way backwards as readers see the decisions that set both protagonists down their respective paths. Of course, "events send them on a collision course where they more than butt heads!" the writer laughed.
Brian Hurtt, the artistic force behind comic series "Sixth Gun" and "Queen and Country," provides the black and white artwork for "Cowboys." Phillips praised the artist, asserting that Hurtt's pencils and inks gave the novel an air of realism needed to pull off the gritty cop story. "[Brian's] one of those guys who really stands out in black and white. He has a great sense of reality. There's a lot of fine artists in comics, but Brian is so good at drawing real people and real buildings and cars; all the things you need to create mood when you're talking about crime and mystery comics," said Phillips.
A prose and comics author for over 20 years, Phillips actually began his professional career not as a writer but as a community organizer working on political action committees. "These were jobs that invariably brought me into contact with people from different walks of life. I think because of [that], it gave me the sense for motivations and psychological makeup of individuals and what drives them. It made an interesting mix and I try to bring that to the page," said Phillips. "Ultimately, though crime-mystery stories are about plot and are about the nature about people who step out of line, it always gets down to the characters."
On reflection, Phillips believed part of what drew him to crime and mystery writing in the first place was the underlying sense of right and wrong, however skewed, present in the genre. "I think [crime and mystery] has always been alluring for those of us who believe that the world has a certain amount of chaos to it. But where do you find that sense of order and balance? In the pages of a mystery story, at least for that brief period of time, there can be some sense of justice, some sense of right and wrong," Phillips said. "All fiction writing, and even some non-fiction as well, it's all morality plays."

Self-organized nanostructures on semiconductor surfaces by low-energy ion beam erosion
M. Cornejo, B. Ziberi, J. Völlner, F. Frost, B. Rauschenbach
Leibniz-Institute of Surface Modification, DE
Keywords: self-organization, maskless patterning, ion beam
Abstract:Ion beam erosion is an alternative process for the generation of various nanostructured surfaces or interfaces via self-organization. In contrast to advanced lithographic methods and subsequent etching procedures for pattern production with structure sizes < 200 nm, which are complex technological processes, self-organized spontaneous pattern formation on the nanometer scale, as observed in erosion of surfaces by ion bombardment, is a cost-efficient `bottom up` approach for the fabrication of nanostructures. With suitable broad beam ion sources, large-area surface processing is possible. In this work results for pattern formation due to noble gas ion beam erosion of silicon, germanium and III/V semiconductor surfaces are presented.

Florida dropped a 76-68 decision to rival Florida State before an O'Connell Center crowd of 1,602 on Thursday.
Some cold shooting as a team and a tough opponent were too much to overcome Thursday as Florida dropped a 76-68 decision to rival Florida State before an O'Connell Center crowd of 1,602.
The Gators (3-2) got a strong performance from sophomore guard January Miller, who had a team-high 19 points on 7-of-10 shooting from the field, including 4-of-5 from 3-point range, but the rest of the team could not follow suit, combining to go 13-of-53 (24.5 percent) from the floor as FSU (4-0) won for fourth time in the last five meetings with UF.
"You have to give Florida State a lot of credit for coming in here and the way they played and how hard they played," UF coach Amanda Butler said. "We basically in our eyes lost the toughness battle in parts of the game today. Not the entire game — there were definitely some bright spots.
"I think we played hard, but there's a difference between playing hard and playing tough, and we've just got to use these opportunities to grow and find ways to improve."
The Seminoles, who placed four starters in double figures led by redshirt sophomore forward Morgan Jones' game-high 24 points, built an 11-point, first-half lead, 30-19, but the Gators fought back to close the half on a 10-4 run to go into the locker room only down five, 34-29.
FSU dominated the first 10 minutes after intermission to build a 58-42 lead, but again Florida fought back, closing to within 69-64 on an offensive rebound and putback by freshman Ronni Williams with 2:33 left
But Williams, who finished with a 14-point, 12-rebound double-double, fouled out for the fourth straight game shortly thereafter, and Jones hit 5-of-6 from the foul line in the last 48 seconds to seal the win for 'Noles, who shot 45.5 percent (25-of-55) from the field and 81.8 percent (18-of-22) from the charity stripe.

Admitted Times Square car bomber Faisal Shahzad was intent on attacking America even before his evil desire was boosted by the Pakistani Taliban, his alleged co-conspirators have told authorities there.
According to his buddies, "Shahzad was very excited and motivated to inflict a big injury on America even before his training by the Taliban," a Pakistani intelligence official told The Associated Press.
"After the training, he was very confident."
Shahzad's friends Shoaib Mughal and Shahid Hussain allegedly confessed to authorities in Pakistan to traveling with Shahzad to Waziristan, where he received training from the Taliban seven months ago.
Shahzad, 30, pleaded guilty in Manhattan federal court Monday to 10 felonies, telling a judge that after getting trained in his native Pakistan, and receiving $5,000 from the Pakistani Taliban, he returned to the United States in February to build a car bomb.
The naturalized American citizen left that bomb — a combination of canisters of propane, gasoline and fertilizer — in a Nissan Pathfinder he parked in Times Square in the early evening of May 1. But the fireworks he lit as a fuse failed to ignite the device, which fizzled and smoked.
Shahzad was nabbed two days later aboard a jet about to depart JFK Airport for Dubai.
His wife, Huma Mian, and two children are believed to be hiding in Karachi, Pakistan.
Meanwhile, yesterday, the four senators who represent New York and New Jersey complained that the State Department has failed to add the Pakistani Taliban to the official list of terror groups.
They said they'll introduce legislation to mandate that designation, which would allow US authorities to seize the group's assets, bar foreign nationals with ties to the group from entering the country and outlaw providing material assistance to the group.
