Not only is the Laura Hughes to blame but the real fault lies with its selfish and egotistical Board of Directors who do not have a clue what they are doing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-23605279178733784852010-03-07T16:21:17.667-06:002010-03-07T16:21:17.667-06:00I think that once the management of Laura Hughes c...I think that once the management of Laura Hughes changes and when they recruit a manager who is more involved with the day to day operations instead of going on numerous trips across the country and would take a pay cut like the previous administration that the organization could and would succeed. She has allowed talented and wonderful staff to leave due to her inability to listen to the concerns of the staff and mirco-management style and then replaced them with her friends. There is a change in order for Ruth Ellis Center in order to succeed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-36854014699606676132010-03-07T14:30:39.237-06:002010-03-07T14:30:39.237-06:00i love this sitei love this sitesedohttp://www.bebekbakmaoyunlari.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-54432966393381055672009-03-26T16:08:00.000-05:002009-03-26T16:08:00.000-05:00I am ashamed that this was in my back yard and I m...I am ashamed that this was in my back yard and I missed it.<BR/>Thanks for the tip!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-78412151557398967022009-03-19T21:48:00.000-05:002009-03-19T21:48:00.000-05:00Ruth Ellis Center is a worth-while, much needed fi...Ruth Ellis Center is a worth-while, much needed fixture in Detroit.

I barely have the courage and strength to come out today, and this is the 90's! How on earth did you do that?"<BR/> <BR/>Her answer, which i remember almost word for word: "you have to love and respect yourself, and you have to respect other people". simple as that. now i knew i had to love and respect myself, but respect all those god-damn shit-spewing homophobes out there? I had to respect them too? that was a new idea for me, and though it didn't happen overnight, over time it really did change my whole perspective on how to deal with homophobia, and not only homophobia, but also all manner of other social ills, both the ones that i'm a victim of, and the ones in which i'm a perpetrator. GODDESS BLESS THE BEAUTIFUL RUTH ELLIS, AND MAY SHE FOREVER REST IN PEACE!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-14036612061975123352009-03-18T10:40:00.000-05:002009-03-18T10:40:00.000-05:00thanks for the info it's very good article :)thanks for the info it's very good article :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-17229941236716887372009-03-18T10:35:00.000-05:002009-03-18T10:35:00.000-05:00Thanks for the mention!
