Hartford Courant "Sex Therapist" Columnist

I'd like to comment to the Hartford Courant, that
after seeing, in the past few days and weeks, reviews
of the incompetence and viciousness of the DCF, the
downloading of porn by DCF's so-called psychiatric
staff, the DCF's staff's repeated raping and beating
of children, the allegedly out of control children in
DCF's "care," DMHAS's federally noticed incompetence,
Department of Corrections' psychopathic prison guards,
the psycho state troopers who murder and gamble, and
Rowlandgate and the mysterious women "runnin aroun wid
em" (Ellef, Tomasso, Albozek Rowland), ...

Why the Courant would give type space to a sex
therapist as a new columnist?
http://www.courant.com/news/local/northeast/hc-drsandy0423.artapr23col,0,5742205.column?coll=hc-utility-home

Isn't it obvious they're not only all warped, but a
complete failure?

See the new videos on my website, which are parts of
the Clinton Lyme conference on the FRAUD in Lyme
disease- a brain disease- testing. Part III is coming
soon: "Psychiatry, a hoax of medical practice."

I mention Jeremy Drazen, the head of the New England
Journal and as regards Mark Klempner and Allen
Steere's crimes, in Video II of the series, "The
Markers of Illness in Lyme borreliosis"
http://actionlyme.org

It is about time the American public begins to assume
there is something very wrong with Republicans running
this country into the ground, as the spineless leeches
of BigBusiness.gov. Today we learned the FDA was
incompetent. 'As if we could not tell from Vioxx and
LYMErix, not to mention this new epidemic of
regressive autism. 'A syndrome that never occurred
before BigPharma "helped."

The Courant should hire a *real scientist* as a
columnist. Someone who can explain everyday life in
terms of fact and physics. After all, even Dubya
wants our children to all become scientists and
engineers. We could start with the adult readers-
teaching their parents.

When Einstein was imagining what was the meaning of
travel at the speed of light, I assure you, he did not
have those thoughts in a quest for sex. When Paul
Ehrlich was playing with microbial stains and came up
compound 606, I assure you his world behind the lens
of a microscope, trying to see what would kill the
syphilis spirochete- which was responsible for an
epidemic of dementia, sex was not on Ehrlich's mind.
Illicit sex was the obviously *cause* of this horror.

It's the cause of a new and even worse one.

Don't look to a pool of scientists at Yale or UCONN,
though. They've all proven their incompetence to
science matters, year in and year out. A new sex
columnist is an irresponsible response and in complete
disconnect, obviously, from what we need to learn in
Corrupticut, about how to deal with our problems.

If science ain't interesting, make it interesting.
It's a visual thing, a reality thing, and math is just
a tool, not a science. And we all HAVE to learn the
language of ENERGY. Scientific discovery is very,
very exciting. Not to Mr. Peanut. Except for the
accidental vasodilators Pfizer adverse-events-stumbled
across.

Again, the "drug designed the disease" (Erectile
Dysfunction we used to know as old-age related and a
result of a lack of physical fitness, and therefore
not a disease), just like chlorpromazine designed
"schizophrenia" as too much dopamine. We've since
found out that was all wrong, but we still have the
same drug action in the entire class of psychotropics.
Receptor and transporter blocking results in brain
cell death and injury, and we have not only new
"diseases" designed by the drugs, but a new term for
this entire bogus Medical (Retro)Theory:
biopsychiatry.

Part II of the video series begins to straighten out
what is wrong with that approach.


The Courant is an excellent newspaper. Your staff are
very, very talented. The one thing lacking is a
Science Tuesday, but promise you won't hire a CDC EIS
officer incognito (a BigBusiness dot guv sanctioned
spindoctor), like the NYTimes' Lawrence Altman.

Or an editor of the NEJM. Or anyone from Yale or
UCONN, as if that even needs to be said. Look what
happened to "Lyme disease." Lyme disease is a marker
of Corrupticut's incompetence to all brain and health
matters, and it is an international epidemic, second
only to AIDS. Most white people don't care about
AIDS. It usually only happens to black people. 'As
if anyone was uncertain what the Republican Party
thinks of black people, the AEI is host to Charles
Murray, The Bell Curve and "Custodial Democracy." The
DCF-Rowlandgate crimes were about Custodial Democracy
and a "national chain of prisons and juvenile
detention centers," completely fitting the Republican
Party's Custodial Democracy dogma.

Where was the commentary from Psych.org, or DMHAS on
these internationally infamous fiascos of abuse in our
state, as a "treatment" for abuse? The Courant has a
new sex therapist, but not a love therapist, and not a
science-lover columnist.

Where to start? WHAT IS A *VALID* SCIENTIFIC METHOD
OR TERM? (Video I on my website.)

Ex-Workers Rap Group Home For Girls

By DANIEL E. GOREN And COLIN POITRAS
Courant Staff Writers

April 24 2006

NEW BRITAIN -- Since a new group home for abused and
neglected girls opened on Black Rock Avenue in
November, the four juveniles living there have
attacked, bitten, punched and kicked staff members and
assaulted one another, according to police and former
workers.

Such misbehavior is not uncommon in group homes for
troubled youths, state officials said. But the home at
75 Black Rock Ave. is the first of its kind operated
by Central Connecticut Association for Retarded
Citizens, which has traditionally cared for the
mentally disabled, not abused and neglected juveniles
from the Department of Children and Families.

Former workers said the organization was unprepared
for the onslaught unleashed by the four juvenile
girls, who moved there in November after CCARC
purchased the house.

Since then, police have been called there 20 times,
four times just last week, and staff turnover has been
high.

Anne L. Ruwet, executive director of CCARC and a
Republican state representative from Torrington, said
CCARC opened the home to fulfill its mission to help
the mentally disabled. In addition to being wards of
DCF, the girls at the home are also clients of the
Department of Mental Retardation. She said the staff
was well trained, including the "disgruntled"
employees who made the complaints.

Officials from the state Child Advocate's Office
recently visited the home after hearing complaints
about staff turnover and safety issues. They left
satisfied that the children were not in physical
danger, but the office plans to continue to
investigate training levels at Black Rock and similar
group homes.

The home is one of 17 that the DCF has opened in the
last year, part of a push to take children out of
institutions and put them in local settings, said
Elizabeth D'Amico, DCF's director of out-of-home care.
The DCF plans to open 17 more such homes by the end of
July.

Associate Child Advocate Mickey Kramer said the Child
Advocate is committed to helping DCF make such smaller
group homes a success, but said her office wants to be
certain DCF is getting what it pays for from
contractors such as CCARC.

Six former employees at the Black Rock Avenue home
claim that training and guidance was lacking there.

CCARC's less-disciplinarian approach to handling its
clients from the DMR does not work with abused
adolescents from DCF, the former employees said. The
disconnect has often put both the home's staff and
children in danger, they said.

"The problem that I had there was that the girls
needed discipline and structure, and from the first
day there was absolutely none," said Eddie Harrison, a
former employee.

On Feb. 12, police were called because one of the
girls claimed she had been assaulted by a staff
member. In his report, the officer on the scene wrote
that the staff had told him there "are no limitations
for the residents."

"The staff that work in the house are not new to this
line of work, but there has been a very high turnover
rate at the house," the officer wrote.

In one widely publicized case involving the agency,
one of the girls was kidnapped while in a CCARC van
during a snowstorm on New Year's Eve. As the roads
became treacherous, the driver, Marcus Fullard, left
the girl in the van - with the keys inside - as he
went to a friend's house to call for assistance. The
van was then stolen by a carjacker with the girl
inside. Fullard was later fired.

Ruwet said employees received proper training to
handle any situation they might encounter at the group
home. The training is required by contract with the
DCF and certified by the state, she said.

"We had extensive training to staff going into that
home," Ruwet said. "Sometimes you can train people all
you can, and they still may not get it."

Ruwet declined to comment on specific incidents at the
home.

"It is a pretty delicate group of girls we are dealing
with," Ruwet said. "I think that with any new home,
transition is very difficult, whether with adolescents
or adults."

The unrest at the home is simply turbulence from the
children and staff adjusting to their new routine,
D'Amico said. "It takes a period of time for any
program to settle in," she said.

DCF spokesman Gary Kleeblatt said his agency is
committed to the idea that children do better in
"smaller, community-based settings."

"That is not shaken by the fact that there are going
to be challenges," Kleeblatt said.
