Arts & CultureAn Eye for an Eye One Iranian woman's fight for retribution after being blinded by an acid attack. 01 Aug 2011 11:29 GMT | Arts & Culture Watch part two Filmmaker: Kaveh Kazemi Ameneh Bahrami was once an independent Iranian woman living in Tehran. In November 2004, her life changed forever when Majid Movahedi, a rejected suitor, threw acid into her face, scarring her and blinding her in both eyes. For four years Ameneh fought hard for the right to have her attacker tried under Islamic law which allows for victims' retribution. In November 2008, an Iranian court ruled that the punishment for her attacker should replicate his crime - acid should be dropped in his eyes and, if she chose, Ameneh could administer the punishment. The film - following Ameneh as she pursues her case through its last legal stages whilst also enduring medical treatment in an attempt to regain her sight - sheds a rare light on life and law in Iran. Update: In February 2009 Movahedi was sentenced to be blinded in both eyes. But in July 2011, a state-run television website reported that Majid Movahedi has been pardoned from being blinded as punishment. "With the request of Ameneh Bahrami, the acid attack victim, Majid, who was sentenced for 'qesas' ['eye for an eye' justice] was pardoned at the last minute" after she decided to forgo her right, the website said. Bahrami told the ISNA news agency she pardoned her attacker because "God talks about 'qesas' in the Koran but he also recommends pardon since pardon is greater than 'qesas'". "I struggled for seven years for this verdict to prove to people that the person who hurls acid should be punished through 'qesas', but today I pardoned him because it was my right.," she said. "I did it for my country, since all other countries were looking to see what we would do."Source: Al Jazeera

New UM chief to be paid well, but not quite like outgoing President Mary Sue Coleman
So how does the compensation package of University of Michigan President-elect Mark Schlissel stack up against that of outgoing President Mary Sue Coleman?
Competitively, but still less than Coleman's when things like retention incentives, deferred compensation and yearly bonuses are factored in. Coleman's current total compensation package is $978,357, compared with Schlissel's $850,000, according to figures provided by the university.
Schlissel, 56, is a biochemist who is the Brown University provost. His compensation package:
• Base pay: $750,000
• Retention incentive: $100,000
• Deferred compensation: None
• 2013 bonus: None
Coleman, 70, the university president since 2002, will retire at the end of the academic year. Her compensation package:
• Base pay: $603,357
• Retention incentive: $100,000
• Deferred compensation: $175,000
• 2013 bonus: $100,000
Other perks: Both Schlissel and Coleman receive use of a car and driver and the president's mansion, and the university pays their work-related expenses.
The UM board of regents unanimously approved Schlissel as Coleman's successor Jan. 24. His base pay can be increased at the board's discretion.

Sophie Theallet Spring 2013
The gossamer wings of a dragonfly found themselves as a visual and material motif in Sophie Theallet's light-as-air Spring 2013 collection. The bugs formed prints on everything from simple cardigans to floor-length gowns and even a camisole paired with trim, printed trousers. But the most arresting looks in this very pretty collection were the skirts and dresses — sometimes solid, sometimes printed — covered with organza. The sheer material obscured some of the prints, creating an eye-catching interest as the models moved down the runway. It also helped give other dresses an element of depth and shape they wouldn't have had otherwise.

@Delaware Blue Hens (5-4)
Monday, December 19

Attendance: 2,345
La Salle
Newark, DE (Sports Network) - Khalid Lewis and Devon Saddler each dropped in 18 points as Delaware downed La Salle, 70-66, in non-conference action at the Bob Carpenter Center.
Saddler completed the double-double with 10 rebounds for the Blue Hens (5-4), while Jamelle Hagins notched his own with 11 points and 11 rebounds.
Five Explorers (7-4) scored in double-figures. Devon White finished with 15 points, Earl Pettis scored 12 points, and Jerrell Wright, Sam Mills and Ramon Galloway all chipped in 11 points each.
La Salle led by as many as 11 points in the first half and took a 33-27 advantage into halftime after holding the hosts to 32.3 percent shooting from the field in the opening period.
A 9-0 run by the Blue Hens early in the second half allowed them to take the lead. The teams then traded leads but Delaware held a one-point lead with 46 seconds to play. La Salle had the ball with a chance to take the lead with 21 seconds remaining in the contest, but Lewis was able to come up with a steal and make two free throws to allow the Blue Hens to hold on for the victory.
Delaware was able to turn 16 La Salle turnovers into 19 points. The Explorers outscored the Blue Hens in the paint, 44-32, but struggled from long-range, making only 2-of-16 from beyond the arc. Delaware outscored La Salle from the free-throw line, 18-8.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — A small plane crashed into a parking lot near a South Florida airport Friday afternoon, killing all three people onboard and burning about a dozen vehicles. No one on the ground was hurt.
Fire-Rescue Division Chief John San Angelo said the Piper Navajo, a twin-engine turboprop, began experiencing engine trouble shortly after taking off from Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport at about 4:30 p.m.
The plane tried to turn around and make an emergency landing, but it didn't make it back to the airport, he said. The plane hit a tree and a fence as it crashed into a parking lot, part of a busy industrial area near blocks of tightly packed warehouses and stores.
The victims' names weren't immediately available. Seven cars and a boat caught fire.
"It looks like a junk yard that burned up," said Matt Little, a spokesman for Fort Lauderdale fire and rescue.
Terry Knowles, owner of R.J. Asset Recovery, said he and another one of his employees were in the repossessed auto lot when the plane crashed.
"I was working on a car, and I heard the engine behind me. I turned around and saw the plane coming right over the building in front of me," he said.
Knowles said the plane appeared to be banking around to head back to the airport, but it just couldn't get the lift.
"It hit the ground and exploded," Knowles said. "It was an instantaneous fireball."
Knowles said he yelled to check on his employee, who had been on the other side of the lot, and the two opened a gate for the presumed arrival of firefighters.
Rick Blackburn was outside working on a race car when he saw the plane tilting sideways in the air as it rapidly descended down. "It dropped like a rock. Boom!" he said.
"The plane hit really hard. We knew the pilot hadn't survived. It was too intense of an impact," said the 55-year-old Blackburn.
He took video with his phone as flames devoured a row of cars, thick blankets of black smoke billowing out.
"It was a ball of flames," he said.
Blackburn said it was immediately clear to those who ran over to help that "it was over." The heat coming from the blaze was intense, he said.
"There were a lot of explosions going off at first. Pop, pop, pop," he said.
About 40 firefighters were at the scene. San Angelo said smoke and the flames were so heavy that when firefighters first arrived, they couldn't tell where the plane was.
Television images showed heavy black smoke rising from the crash scene. Later video footage show a parking lot with vehicles in a corner that were burned-out shells, a smoldering heap covered in foam spread by firefighters on the scene. The cars were by a chain-link fence, and a building on the other side was streaked with black.

Alyson Footer Gives Clarity To The Astros Players Uproar
Alyson Footer, MLB.com, joined The Triple Threat to discuss the latest happenings with the Astros. She thought this uproar over Mark Appel throwing a bullpen was a bit over blown by the media. She said twitter got ahead of the story and helped to blow things out of proportion. Footer says the "jury is still out" when it comes to how the league views Bo Porter's managerial style with the Astros because it's too early to know. She said the general attitude towards the Astros on the national level is very skeptical about what they are doing, but are waiting to see what will happen. She said the Astros have kind of been on a bit of a downward spiral since the 2007 draft where they didn't draft a single useful player for the team.

Once a year, television's royalty gathers together for a ceremony honoring the best of the best of primetime TV. Shows, actors, and writers are all given a chance to take home a coveted Emmy statue--but in order to win, they must pass the mysterious and rigorous selection process of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences. Millions of people tune in to watch each year's ceremony and find out if their favorite shows and actors have been recognized or ignored, and the results can often make or break a series or career. The Emmy statue, depicting a winged woman holding an atom, was developed in 1948 by Louis McManus. The statue is meant to signify the arts, through the female figure, and the sciences, through the atom. The name for the award is taken from "Immy," a slang term for "image orthicon tube," an ingredient of many early television cameras. Since the figure is female, "Emmy" seemed more suitable to the Academy.

A sampler beautifully worked in 1774 by Ann Wedge (nee Turner) at the age of 14. Ann, my Great, Great, Great Grandmother, married Francis Wedge, Churchwarden of Forton Church in Shropshire, and farmer of Fernhill, Forton. She died at the age of 95 at Forton Gate on the Aqualate Estate.
The sampler has been handed down and treasured through the generations.
I think it is a representation of how young girls were disciplined in the art of needlework and embroidery at that time. Although faded through the years, it is clear to see the meticulous and intricate tiny stitches worked into the design and Ann's expertise at this tender young age. It finishes with the words: -
'Ann Turner Her work in the Year of our Lord : 1774'

Bryan Cranston has been playing the character Walter White in the television series Breaking Bad since day one and, with the show coming to an end later this year, Bryan has been talking about the shows finale. Bryan says that it is not going to be pretty and that things are going to get bad for Walter.
Cranston explained, "There's nothing good, there's not going to be redemption. It's going downhill - it's ugly. We're not going to take a nice note up - we're Breaking Bad! It's going to be bad. But I don't ask what's happening, I don't know how it's going to end, we have eight more episodes to shoot before we're done and I have no idea how it's going to go."
Bryan then went on to talk about the joy of working on an AMC show, as he feels that they have the right idea about the shows that they make. Bryan says that AMC will only take on board shows and ideas that people do not expect to be able to take place, which is why they have such good writers.
He added, "There's hundreds of channels and networks and they need to be able to have their own identity. So in the States, AMC has this credo that if it can be shown on a broadcast network, then they don't even want to hear it. It's, 'We want the things that you thought couldn't be done', and that is like catnip to a writer."
You can catch Bryan Cranston playing out his remaining days as Walter White, when Breaking Bad season five returns to AMC on July 17.

Steve Harris (Executive Vice President Cascade Microtech, Inc.) And Frank Averdung (President & CEO Süss MicroTec AG) Kick Off The Strategic Partnership (Photo: Business Wire)
Cascade Microtech, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCD), a worldwide leader in the precise electrical and mechanical measurement and test of integrated circuits (ICs) and other small structures and SUSS MicroTec AG (FWB:SMH)(GER:SMH)(ISIN: DE0007226706), a leading supplier of equipment and process solutions for the semiconductor industry and related markets announced today that they have entered into a strategic partnership to address the growing device complexities of emerging semiconductor technologies such as 3D TSV manufacturing and test.
Over the last few decades Moore's Law (the doubling of device performance every two years) has enabled the semiconductor companies to increase speed, functionality and complexity while reducing cost at the same time. As companies are driving beyond 32 nm, the cost position becomes less favorable and interconnect technology is limiting performance gains. Emerging 3D methodologies (the stacking of one die or wafer on top of another) are addressing these dilemmas. Adoption of 3D TSV (Through-Silicon Via) is the ultimate in 3D integration providing higher performance, reduced noise, smaller device form factor, and modularity in construction at potentially lower cost.
By forming a strategic alliance, the two companies will bring innovative approaches to the 3D TSV manufacturing processes. Both companies will use their associations with leading research organizations such as IMEC, as well as industry partnerships, to gain insight into this cutting-edge methodology driving beyond Moore's Law. Further collaboration with device and reliability experts will allow the alliance to address the complexities and interactions of semiconductor bonding and test probing for next-generation semiconductor devices.
"SUSS MicroTec shares Cascade Microtech's commitment to develop the most advanced technologies for the continued improvement of semiconductor technologies," said Frank P. Averdung, President and CEO of SUSS MicroTec AG. "The comprehensive knowledge of the two companies will enable both companies to better address the issues inherent in 3D Integration."
"This joint research initiative with SUSS MicroTec reinforces Cascade Microtech's commitment to develop practical solutions for leading-edge technologies that increasingly rely on new structures for continued performance improvement," said F. Paul Carlson, Chairman and CEO of Cascade Microtech, Inc. "We look forward to collaborating with SUSS MicroTec on innovative ways to characterize and evaluate new design methodologies and manufacturing processes, which will benefit our common customers, as well as the industries we serve."Check Out Our Best Services for Investors

@thebd Thor, Priest, Fast Five, Brides Maids and so on....in this order. IMO

crazy prediction, this weekend will be Thor or Brides Maids. throwing it out there, i think Brides Maids is a sleeper. looks like a kinda raunchy chick flick that might actually be funny for guys too. it will have female appeal which is always a big draw for the box office. priest won't do much at all. it reminds me of I Am Legend, but doesn't have the big name actor.
Only films for this weekend to compete against Thor is Fast Five, Priest and Hesher, and I'll also include Rio...It's been doing it's great.

@moviegeek - ...
::looks for that "facepalm" code::@diaigma Pardon me. Soul Surfer got an "A+"

@moviegeek - I did not. Never Say Never also got an "A" from them :P
@diaigma It got an "A" from Cinemascore don'tcha know? :P

@thedude-abides Thanks man :)
4 years agoby @moviegeekFlag
@superman81 you make a good point with fast five, but you have to understand that, it has a franchise, the fifth in a series, and so it has a built in fanbase... thor has a geek fanbase. also fast five had star power... yes it seems that the only films that do well for the stars is the "furious" films but it is what it is.
I know I'm late, but nice job once again, @moviegeek. U r the man.
4 years agoby @thedude-abidesFlag
From what I have read studios want to use 3D more cause it keeps people from bootlegging. I know it does no good if u have it come out in 2D as well but that's what I read. Maybe u will see more markets start to only have the 3D version. Most boot leg movies I see are from over seas anyways. So jacking up prices here ain't helping

I know, I know....just glad to see the passion for movies!4 years agoby @messengerFlag
Well this is a big a uh duh dont you think

Yeah 3d schedule had less waiting period, the 2d if miss one from that time you had to wait 2hours or more unfair.

3D is becoming a problem now, more than it already was
4 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
I let everyone decide on this one. Basically Thor was not available in 2D in many areas. People did not want to spend on 3D. Lost money. So watcha think?4 years agoby @furankisanFlag
@messenger - well, this IS a box office article :P
@superman81 - I see where you're coming from. Thank you. Everyone has opinions and I can respect that. Stating opinions as fact is a tough sell when it conflicts with the established/accepted facts amongst a film buff community such as this. I like a healthy discussion, so I appreciate your turning back to civility :)
@moviegeek - pummeled? More like crash and burn! Agreed, unlikely . . .LOL, good grief, you guys are still talking about money?
4 years agoby @messengerFlag
@diaigma, @moviegeek I never meant to come off as saying movies live or die based on domestic alone. I know movies like Avatar which 72% of its money was international and Harry Potter and other movies live off international money. I was just saying I felt let down that it didn't make more. I like to see big money in the 2 big markets being America and Canada. Thor is a success and I never meant to come off like it wasn't. And as for Transformers vs HP, transformers has dominated every summer it came out and HP will rule over seas again but I don't think it will come close to beating T3. T3 might be the best reviewed once it comes out, but there are lots of Haters who only see it as a robot movie. I know people hated T2 but from what I seen so far Michael bay went all out this time.
4 years agoby @superman81Flag
Okay you guys aren't giving Thor enough Credit... Thor as a superhero flick on the big screen is new to pretty much anyone who hasn't watched a marvel cartoon or read a comic book. It has made 66 million domestically in it's opening weekend... now in comparison... Batman begins which had all those previous bat films in it's history, had a 48 million dollar opening weekend... and finished at around 370 million internationally. Thor is already at 240 mil internationally, if Battle LA which was not very popular in theaters could finish at 200 mil this year, I'll wager, that Thor finishes at least around 350/370 if not above 400mil, and considering Thor had a 150mil dollar budget, the same as batman begins... that's still a box office success by any account.
4 years agoby @youngrizoFlag
Sweet, im headed to see thor this week! excited!
4 years agoby @nautical05Flag
@moviegeek Well, with the whole international racing in it, the film won't suffer completely overseas.
4 years agoby @bawnian-dexeusFlag
@diaigma I can't wait :) And I'm hoping Cars gets pummeled, but that doesn't look likely :p
4 years agoby @moviegeekFlag
@moviegeek - I'll have to wait and see on that one. Those are the two films that will butt heads for B.O. dominance this Summer. Looking forward to the show :)

At a press reception held after the second day of ECTS 2001, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe showed off a great deal of its upcoming PlayStation and PlayStation 2 lineup, including the titles it plans to copublish with Sega. One of those titles is a port of Appaloosa Interactive's Dreamcast game Ecco the Dolphin: Defender of the Future.
The work in progress on display played roughly the same as the Dreamcast version, though the control currently seems slightly jumpier than the Dreamcast release's. Graphically, the game looks similar to the Dreamcast version of the game, with crisp textures and excellent animation. However, like many PlayStation 2 games, some of the edges in the game appear a little jagged. Hopefully Appaloosa will have time to clean up the graphics before the game is released.
The game will contain a few improvements on the Dreamcast version, the chief one being the inclusion of a bubble compass that can be toggled on and off. The compass will point you in the direction of your next objective, a welcome change from the blissful yet frustrating wandering that dominated the original version.
No plans have been announced regarding a US release for the PS2 Ecco. We'll have new information as it becomes available.

Wireless Knowledge Buys Out Shares Held by Microsoft
Wireless Knowledge Buys Out Shares Held by Microsoft
Carmen Nobel
Posted 2001-11-06
Wireless Knowledge announced that it has bought out all its shares currently held by Microsoft. As a result, it becomes a subsidiary of Qualcomm.
Wireless middleware manufacturer Wireless Knowledge Inc. on Tuesday announced that it has bought out all its shares currently held by Microsoft Corp. As a result, Wireless Knowledge becomes a subsidiary of Qualcomm Corp., which co-founded Wireless Knowledge with Microsoft in 1998.
"I dont think the cooperation [with Microsoft] worked to the degree that we all had hoped it would," said Eric Schultz, CEO of Wireless Knowledge, in San Diego.
Wireless Knowledge initially struggled in the marketplace as it tried to sell a less-than-stellar wireless access platform to carriers that werent interested. So early in 2000 the company shifted its focus to corporate enterprises and fixed some glitches in the technology. "We had a less-than-perfect technology model at the beginning," said Schultz, who came to the company from Microsoft. "When we changed it to an enterprise software model, we fixed a lot of that." But around the same time that Wireless Knowledge was finally gaining a foothold with its Workstyle Server platform, Microsoft introduced its "Airstream" initiative in the form of a product that seemed to compete directly against Wireless Knowledge.
Microsofts Mobile Information 2001 Server, which launched in the spring, is based largely on technology from Wireless Knowledge and offers access to various Microsoft applications--and only Microsoft applications--using the Wireless Application Protocol. Wireless Knowledge received royalties for every sale of MIS. Wireless Knowledges Workstyle Server, on the other hand, supports platforms beyond those of Microsoft, including wireless access to Lotus Notes and Domino. By the time MIS Version 1.0 was launched, Workstyle Server was on Version 3.5. When MIS was launched, Microsoft officials indicated that Wireless Knowledge existed mainly to support the better good of MIS and that existing Workstyle Server customers would migrate to MIS when future versions of MIS became available. Wireless Knowledge officials disagreed, and the conflict of interest was obvious. "Theres nothing there that says the day MIS comes out that we have to put a bullet in Workstyle Servers head," Peggy Biddison, chief marketing officer at Wireless Knowledge, said earlier this year. "Theyre not fully aware of everything that were doing. We plan on being a built-to-last company." Wireless Knowledge officials are now saying that Microsofts interest lay too deeply in selling its own products, while they want to support myriad platforms. "Microsoft has a multibillion-dollar business around Windows and BackOffice," said Jeff Ross, director of corporate development at Wireless Knowledge. "It only makes sense that their goals are focused on those core flagship products." Microsoft essentially agreed. "At Microsoft we have recently introduced a product line to accelerate mobile application development and enable Office and Exchange customers to become mobile office workers any time and any place," said Bob Muglia, group vice president at Microsoft, in Redmond, Wash., in a statement. "For this reason, both companies have decided it is best to pursue our respective goals using independent technologies." The technologies arent entirely independent--MIS is based largely on technology from Wireless Knowledge. But Wireless Knowledge expects the independence to instill confidence in customers who want to see support for platforms beyond those of Microsoft. In addition, being a wholly owned subsidiary of Qualcomm should please Sprint Corp. and Verizon Corp., both of whom have agreements with Wireless Knowledge to sell Workstyle Server to corporate customers. Qualcomm owns the patents for all of the wireless telecommunications standards that are based on CDMA, which both Sprint and Verizon plan to use in their path to third-generation wireless networks. Qualcomm also owns BREW, a wireless development platform for handheld devices that Wireless Knowledge intends to support in its products. Besides Workstyle Server, Wireless Knowledge sells development tools and microportals. Another wireless access platform, Anystyle Server, which works both online and offline, will be folded into the Workstyle Server family, officials said. The company also has plans for software that supports sales force automation software. A packaged product is due next year, Schultz said.

February 26-- For the third year in a row WTOC TV11 Bureau Chief Dal Cannady is walking to raise awareness of the mission of the American Red Cross. In total he will walk 97 miles across Southeast Georgia in celebration of the 97 years that Red Cross volunteers have been delivering services in Southeast and Coastal Georgia.
Along his walk he will accept donations from caring community businesses, municipalities and residents. In the true spirit of neighbors helping neighbors these donations will place resources in the hands of volunteers who lend their hearts and hands when disaster strikes.
Along the way he will stop by local restaurants to share Red Cross stories, receive hugs and wait a few tables for more donations. His walk will average 13 miles per day over 7 days.
Dal kicked off the event with a fundraiser at Harry's Barbeque in Claxton last night and started his Hero Walk this morning at 9:00 am on 301 South in Claxton, GA.
His route will take him through Baxley, Vidalia, Uvalda, Metter, Midway, Swainsboro, Hinesville and many other towns. Along the way he will make public stops at: the Dairy Queen in Glennville; Sarah's in the City in Baxley; the Steeple Chase in Vidalia Friday night; Benton Lee's in Uvalda; Bevrick's in Metter and the La Quinta Inn in Hinesville. His walk will conclude at Vandy's in Statesboro Tuesday night.
Dal Cannady has been WTOC's bureau chief since 1996, but he's been a reporter in Southeast Georgia since 1990. Before coming to the Southeast News Leader, Dal served as anchor/news director for the CNN/Headline News affiliate in Statesboro. He is also a dedicated Red Cross Board Member and whenever a disaster strikes in rural Georgia he passionately reports on the work of Red Cross volunteers who often meet clients on their front lawns after losing everything they own.
People can donate in support of Dal's walk at www.redcross.org/segaheroeswalk or by visiting the WTOC website at www.wtoc.com. Dal's WTOC Facebook page will provide up to date details on his walk, stops and locations.

Unfortunately, Francis has more to do so that future popes won't have to keep saying "I'm sorry" for these crimes and the Catholic Church's cover-up. This is not to downplay the important symbolism of public apologies from the church's top leader. Indeed, Francis seems sincere and acknowledges the complicity of the institutional church in the cover-up, not just the actions of individual men.Heidi SchlumpfBut Francis is not the first pope to meet with sex abuse victims or even the first to offer an official apology for what has to be one of the gravest evils in the church. His predecessor, Pope Benedict XVI, met on several occasions with victims, including during a trip to the United States. After one such meeting, he also issued a formal apology, saying he was "deeply sorry for the pain and suffering the victims have endured."In comparison, Francis' apology, given during a lengthy homily, was more extensive, emphasizing the psychological and spiritual pain victims have endured and noting that these "despicable actions" had been "camouflaged with a complicity that cannot be explained."It also was better than his, "Yes, but ..." apology earlier this year, when he mentioned that abusers were "quite a few in number, though not compared to the total number" of priests, after earlier complaining about how the church had been unfairly singled out for the problem of sexual abuse of minors.Given the enormity of this problem facing the Catholic Church, however, victims' rights groups are correct in expressing disappointment with how long it took for the new Pope to meet with them (16 months into his pontificate). In March, editors of the National Catholic Reporter, which has been covering sex abuse by clergy for nearly three decades, implored the Pope in an open letter to make meeting with victims a priority.As someone who clearly understands the significance of his actions -- everything from his choice of attire to whose feet he washes on Holy Thursday -- Francis should have met with victims much sooner than this.

The diocese has recently been ordered to pay $1.1 million for violating terms of an earlier contract of reparations.Of course, a good apology includes not only acknowledgment of personal and/or corporate responsibility for the victim's pain, but also a promise to fix things, or at least to not continue to inflict that pain. The church is finally, after decades of denying or minimizing victims' pain, accepting responsibility. But we're not yet there on fixing things. That's why victims' rights groups are understandably frustrated by the molasses-like pace of the church on this issue. Barbara Blaine, president of the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, applauded the courage of the victims who met with Francis on Monday but complained about the need for more decisive action. "The Pope says the church should 'make reparations' to victims. That's secondary. Stopping abuse and protecting children comes first. And sadly, no child on earth is safer today because of this meeting," she wrote in a statement.Here's another saying: "To err is human; to forgive, divine." If that's true, it will be the victims who will be the real saints, not the apologizers.Read CNNOpinion's new Flipboard magazine.Follow us on Twitter @CNNOpinion.Join us on Facebook.com/CNNOpinion.Opinion on the newsHow AirAsia flight compares to Air France 447 crashPilot Bill Palmer says the AirAsia flight had similarities to Air France 447, which also encountered bad weatherDon't turn your back on these childrenPoverty isn't the only reason why so many parents are paying to have their child smuggled into the United States, says Carole GeithnerIran's hypocrisy in condemning U.S. racism Michael Rubin says it's a farce that Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei posted tweets criticizing U.S. policeThe smart thing that makes you stupidRon Friedman says your smartphone may be making you behave stupidly; resolve to resist distractions in 2015Is AI a threat to humanity?Artificial intelligence does not need to be malevolent to be catastrophically dangerous to humanity, writes Greg Scoblete.Welcome to the troll ageThe ability to manipulate media and technology has increasingly become a critical strategic resource, says Jeff Yang.More from opinionWhat will happen if the bees disappear?Thanks, Ben Carson, but prison doesn't make people 'come out' gayWhy Iran's rise is a good thingPowered by Livefyre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - View original article
Denial, in ordinary English usage, is asserting that a statement or allegation is not true.[1] The same word, and also abnegation (German: Verneinung), is used for a psychological defense mechanism postulated by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence.[1][2][3]
The subject may use:
The concept of denial is particularly important to the study of addiction.
The theory of denial was first researched seriously by Anna Freud. She classified denial as a mechanism of the immature mind, because it conflicts with the ability to learn from and cope with reality. Where denial occurs in mature minds, it is most often associated with death, dying and rape. More recent research has significantly expanded the scope and utility of the concept. Elisabeth Kübler-Ross used denial as the first of five stages in the psychology of a dying patient, and the idea has been extended to include the reactions of survivors to news of a death.[4]
Many contemporary psychoanalysts treat denial as the first stage of a coping cycle. When an unwelcome change occurs, a trauma of some sort, the first impulse to disbelieve begins the process of coping. That denial, in a healthy mind, slowly rises to greater consciousness. Gradually becoming a subconscious pressure, just beneath the surface of overt awareness, the mechanism of coping then involves repression, while the person accumulates the emotional resources to fully face the trauma. Once faced, the person deals with the trauma in a stage alternately called acceptance or enlightenment, depending on the scope of the issue and the therapist's school of thought. After this stage, once sufficiently dealt with, or dealt with for the time being, the trauma must sink away from total conscious awareness again. Left metaphorically upon a back burner or put away in a cupboard, the process of sublimation involves a balance of neither quite forgetting nor quite remembering. This allows the trauma to re-emerge in consciousness if it involves an ongoing process such as a protracted illness. Or sublimation may begin the full resolution process, where the trauma finally sinks away into eventual forgetfulness. Occasionally this entire cycle has been referred to in modern parlance as denial, often confusing the full cycle with only one stage in the cycle.[5]
Unlike some other defense mechanisms postulated by psychoanalytic theory (for instance, repression), the general existence of denial is fairly easy to verify, even for non-specialists. On the other hand, denial is one of the most controversial defense mechanisms, since it can be easily used to create unfalsifiable theories: anything the subject says or does that appears to disprove the interpreter's theory is explained, not as evidence that the interpreter's theory is wrong, but as the subject's being "in denial". However, researchers note that in some cases of corroborated child sexual abuse, the victims sometimes make a series of partial confessions and recantations as they struggle with their own denial and the denial of abusers or family members. Use of denial theory in a legal setting therefore must be carefully regulated and experts' credentials verified. "Formulaic guilt" simply by "being a denier" has been castigated by English judges and academics. The main objection is that denial theory is founded on the premise that that which the supposed denier is denying is truth. This usurps the judge (and/or jury) as triers of fact.[6]
It is important to note what makes denial denial and not just refusal to admit to or accept a truth or fact rests in the degree of individual's awareness of the existence of the truth or fact. In denial, an individual does not see or is mostly unconscious of existence of the truth or fact. The choice to refuse reality, then, is unconscious as well. Refusal to admit to or accept a truth or fact differs from denial in that the individual recognizes or is conscious of the existence of the truth or fact but consciously refuses to accept it as such.[citation needed]
Freud employs the term Verleugnung (usually translated either as "disavowal" or as "denial") as distinct from Verneinung (usually translated as "denial" or as "abnegation"). In Verleugnung, the defense consists in denying something that affects the individual and is a way of affirming what he or she is apparently denying. For Freud, Verleugnung is related to psychoses, whereas Verdrängung is a neurotic defense mechanism.[7][8] Freud broadened his clinical work on disavowal beyond the realm of psychosis. In "Fetishism" (1927), he reported a case of two young men each of whom denied the death of his father. Freud notes that neither of them developed a psychosis, even though a "a piece of reality which was undoubtedly important has been disavowed [verleugnet], just as the unwelcome fact of women's castration is disavowed in fetishists."[9]
The concept of denial is important in twelve-step programs, where the abandonment or reversal of denial forms the basis of the first, fourth, fifth, eighth and tenth steps. The ability to deny or minimize is an essential part of what enables an addict to continue his or her behavior despite evidence that—to an outsider—appears overwhelming. This is cited as one of the reasons that compulsion is seldom effective in treating addiction—the habit of denial remains.
Understanding and avoiding denial is also important in the treatment of various diseases. The American Heart Association cites denial as a principal reason that treatment of a heart attack is delayed. Because the symptoms are so varied, and often have other potential explanations, the opportunity exists for the patient to deny the emergency, often with fatal consequences. It is common for patients to delay mammograms or other tests because of a fear of cancer, even though this is clearly maladaptive. It is the responsibility of the care team, and of the nursing staff in particular, to train at-risk patients to avoid this behavior.
In this form of denial, someone avoids a fact by utilizing deception. This lying can take the form of an outright falsehood (commission), leaving out certain details to tailor a story (omission), or by falsely agreeing to something (assent, also referred to as "yessing" behavior). Someone who is in denial of fact is typically using lies to avoid facts they think may be painful to themselves or others.
This form of denial involves avoiding personal responsibility by:
Someone using denial of responsibility is usually attempting to avoid potential harm or pain by shifting attention away from themselves.
For example:
Denial of impact involves a person's avoiding thinking about or understanding the harms of his or her behavior has caused to self or others, i.e. denial of the consequences. Doing this enables that person to avoid feeling a sense of guilt and it can prevent him or her from developing remorse or empathy for others. Denial of impact reduces or eliminates a sense of pain or harm from poor decisions.[10]
Many who use this type of denial will say things such as, "it just happened". Denial of cycle is where a person avoids looking at their decisions leading up to an event or does not consider their pattern of decision making and how harmful behavior is repeated. The pain and harm being avoided by this type of denial is more of the effort needed to change the focus from a singular event to looking at preceding events. It can also serve as a way to blame or justify behavior (see above).
This form of denial attempts to divert pain by claiming that the level of awareness was inhibited by some mitigating variable. This is most typically seen in addiction situations where drug or alcohol abuse is a factor, though it also occasionally manifests itself in relation to mental health issues or the pharmaceutical substances used to treat mental health issues. This form of denial may also overlap with denial of responsibility.[11]
This can be a difficult concept for many people to identify with in themselves, but is a major barrier to changing hurtful behaviors. Denial of denial involves thoughts, actions and behaviors which bolster confidence that nothing needs to be changed in one's personal behavior. This form of denial typically overlaps with all of the other forms of denial, but involves more self-delusion. Denial at this level can have significant consequences both personally and at a societal level.[12][13]
Harassment covers a wide range of offensive behaviour. It is commonly understood as behaviour intended to disturb or upset. In the legal sense, it is behaviour which is found threatening or disturbing.
DARVO is an acronym to describe a common strategy of abusers: Deny the abuse, then Attack the victim for attempting to make them accountable for their offense, thereby Reversing Victim and Offender. This may involve gaslighting and victim blaming.
Psychologist Jennifer Freyd writes:
...I have observed that actual abusers threaten, bully and make a nightmare for anyone who holds them accountable or asks them to change their abusive behavior. This attack, intended to chill and terrify, typically includes threats of law suits, overt and covert attacks on the whistle-blower's credibility, and so on. The attack will often take the form of focusing on ridiculing the person who attempts to hold the offender accountable. [...] [T]he offender rapidly creates the impression that the abuser is the wronged one, while the victim or concerned observer is the offender. Figure and ground are completely reversed. [...] The offender is on the offense and the person attempting to hold the offender accountable is put on the defense.[14]
