Dear Friends of MBEF – When we envision the type of learning environment we want for our children, we dream of empowering and enriching their academic lives with personalized learning, hands-on opportunities in science, art, and music, strong foundations in core subjects like language arts and math, as well as inspirational opportunities for collaboration and connection. Because of you, our generous Because of You community, the Manhattan Beach Education Foundation (MBEF) is able to support the quality education that we all envision. We invite you to learn more about MBEF’s impact and the specific programs that you helped prioritize and make possible for the coming 2019-20 school year. Thanks to your generosity, MBEF will provide over $6.5 million to our District – the largest MBEF grant ever – to deliver a vast array of programs to enrich the educational experience of our students. Our schools and students excel because of you – the parents, business leaders, educators and neighbors who are committed to our children’s education and future. We are inspired by your investment in our schools and look forward to partnering with you again for another school year.

However, our per-pupil funding for public school districts with higher numbers of education is very different from these other students who qualify for the Free and Reduced high performing districts. Funding from the Lunch Program, are English Language Learners, recent parcel tax provides approximately and/or are foster youth. While LCFF has provided $2.4 million annually, which helps offset annual additional resources for districts with greater cost of living adjustments and pensions for numbers of “high need” students, education teachers. Support of MBEF remains vital to MBEF was founded by a group of parents committed to funding remains inadequate for all students. Of continue the programs our parents expect, strengthening our public schools over three decades ago. ALL school districts in California, MBUSD is one and our students need, to succeed. At a time when school funding was at an all-time low, private of the few with the LOWEST number of students who qualify for supplemental funding. donations were critical to providing a quality education for our children. Over thirty-five years later our public schools remain underfunded and MBEF continues to play a significant role in PER PUPIL FUNDING supporting — in small or large part — nearly every academic pursuit and enrichment opportunity across our seven campuses. THE REASON FOR MBEF California Funding For Education MBUSD is a Revenue Limit District // Is Inadequate // Despite a $20 billion Only a small portion of our property taxes in increase in K-12 spending since 2011, California Manhattan Beach support education. The formula continues to rank among the lowest in the nation in to allocate property tax dollars is based on spending school funding. The United States Census Bureau levels in the 1970’s. At that time, MBUSD was a recently ranked California as 37th in per pupil K-8 district and allocated a small portion of funding when adjusted for the cost of living. property taxes to schools. As a result, MBUSD MBUSD will receive roughly $10,450 per pupil this is a “Revenue Limit” district and does not retain year, putting our funding level at the BOTTOM of property taxes. “Basic Aid” districts, such as both the state and country. Palo Alto, Laguna Beach and Beverly Hills, funded education at a higher level in the 70’s, so they retain excess property taxes. Consequently, funding for Manhattan Beach schools is actually augmented by state aid to reach the guaranteed minimum level of funding per student. 5 \\ The Reason For MBEF The Reason For MBEF // 6 Great Schools Today.

  • Fiestas and Fervor: Religious Life and Catholic Enlightenment in the Diocese of Barcelona, 1766-1775
    FIESTAS AND FERVOR: RELIGIOUS LIFE AND CATHOLIC ENLIGHTENMENT IN THE DIOCESE OF BARCELONA, 1766-1775 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Andrea J. Smidt, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2006 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Dale K. Van Kley, Adviser Professor N. Geoffrey Parker Professor Kenneth J. Andrien ____________________ Adviser History Graduate Program ABSTRACT The Enlightenment, or the "Age of Reason," had a profound impact on eighteenth-century Europe, especially on its religion, producing both outright atheism and powerful movements of religious reform within the Church. The former—culminating in the French Revolution—has attracted many scholars; the latter has been relatively neglected. By looking at "enlightened" attempts to reform popular religious practices in Spain, my project examines the religious fervor of people whose story usually escapes historical attention. "Fiestas and Fervor" reveals the capacity of the Enlightenment to reform the Catholicism of ordinary Spaniards, examining how enlightened or Reform Catholicism affected popular piety in the diocese of Barcelona. This study focuses on the efforts of an exceptional figure of Reform Catholicism and Enlightenment Spain—Josep Climent i Avinent, Bishop of Barcelona from 1766- 1775. The program of “Enlightenment” as sponsored by the Spanish monarchy was one that did not question the Catholic faith and that championed economic progress and the advancement of the sciences, primarily benefiting the elite of Spanish society. In this context, Climent is noteworthy not only because his idea of “Catholic Enlightenment” opposed that sponsored by the Spanish monarchy but also because his was one that implicitly condemned the present hierarchy of the Catholic Church and explicitly ii advocated popular enlightenment and the creation of a more independent “public sphere” in Spain by means of increased literacy and education of the masses.

  • A Gallery of Archetypes
    Meta Religion / Psychiatry / Analytical Psychology / (from http://www.meta-religion.com/Psychiatry/Analytical_psychology/a_gallery_of_archetypes.htm) A Gallery of Archetypes From: http://www.myss.com/ThreeArchs.asp The archetypes listed here in boldface type are just a few of the many ancient patterns that exist in human consciousness. Many additional archetypes that are closely related are mentioned in parentheses, such as Hermit (found under Mystic), Therapist (under Healer), or Pirate (under Rebel). Please read through the entire list, looking at all the archetypes in parentheses, before assuming that the one you're looking for isn't here. Naturally, it's impossible to list all the hundreds of archetypes that exist, but these are some of the most common, and include just about all that are mentioned in my book, CD, or tape of Sacred Contracts. If you feel that you have an archetype that isn't found here, please do not hesitate to give it careful consideration, and feel free to include it in your support team. Remember that all archetypes are essentially neutral and manifest in both light and shadow attributes. Accordingly, I have tried to include both sets of attributes for each listing, along with cues to help you determine whether a given archetype may be part of your lifelong support team of twelve. To help you further, I've listed some examples of each archetype as embodied in popular film, fiction, drama, and the world's religions and mythologies. In evaluating whether an archetype is part of your intimate group, pay special attention to whether you can perceive a pattern of influence throughout your history, rather than only isolated or recent incidents.

  • Vilenica and Vilenjak: Bearers of an Extinct Fairy Cult1
    Nar. umjet. 39/1, 2002, pp. 31-63, Z. Čiča, Vilenica and Vilenjak: Bearers of an Extinct... Original scientific paper Received: 17th Jan. 2002 Accepted: 29th March 2002 UDK 398.4(4)(091) ZORAN »I»A BartoliÊi 41, Zagreb VILENICA AND VILENJAK: BEARERS OF AN EXTINCT FAIRY CULT1 This article traces a popular pre-Christian fairy cult in Croatia and broader, with vilenica and vilenjak as its bearers and practitioners. The sources analyzed are historical records, sixteenth-century literary fragments, theological writings from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, and nineteenth- and twentieth-century ethnographic data. The author reconstructs and examines the morphology of the cult, its influence on the learned culture (Renaissance literary works), along with the theological endeavours to alter the social reception of an apparently widespread cult and to root it out. The Roman Catholic efforts to reform popular culture as well as the historical phenomenon of witch-hunting and its consequences contributed markedly to the disappearance of the contemporary awareness of vilenicas (f) and vilenjaks (vileniks, vilovnjaks) (m) as the central personages of a rich cosmological cult similar to those practised elsewhere in Europe. Key words: vilenica, vilenjak (vilenik, vilovnjak), fairy cult, witch- -hunting, popular culture 1. It was in early August of 1660 when captain Ivan Gučetić of Janjina captaincy, the Republic of Dubrovnik, was informed of the presence of vilenicas and streghe [witches] in his district. Intrigued by the report, he decided to have one of these vilenicas summoned. Soon before him stood a young woman, aged between 25 and 30, who was to satisfy the captain's curiosity and puzzlement.
