The first speaker is Lorraine Green Whitehead. Smart Beginnings – representative Lorraine Green Whitehead, Executive Director. Mrs. Whitehead thanks the Board for support of the program which has allowed Smart Beginnings to provide significant change in the early childhood experiences of at-risk children, providing them with a greater possibility for a better life. Mrs. Whitehead provided a brief synopsis of what services the program provides including: x Workshop materials for early childcare providers; x Provide resources for skills development in areas; x Assist at child care centers to maintain licensure and the Virginia quality ratings; x Developing data capacity action plans that will identify which children are not ready for kindergarten according to assessment; x Host and facilitate the Western Tidewater childhood collaboration which builds a system of services and resources making them more available to meet the needs of families. These members include the school system, the health department, DSS, the Children’s Center, Headstart, home visiting health services, local hospitals, YMCA and library; x Smart Beginnings is a sleep-tight Hampton Roads crib distributor, providing cribs and safe sleep information to mothers with limited resources; Mrs. Whitehead concludes by asking for the Board’s continuing support in order to help raise our children up out of poverty into college and career readiness. Vice-Chairman West asks the Board for questions or comments. There being none, he thanks Mrs. Whitehead for her presentation and expresses appreciation from the Board for what she does through Smart Beginnings. The next speaker is Phillip Bradshaw. Paul D. Camp Community College – Philip Bradshaw, CFO (speaking in the absence of President Lufkin). Mr. Bradshaw indicates that the request this year is the same as last year (as promised). He shares the following about PDCCC: x PDCCC is one of the few community colleges (out of 23 in the state of Virginia) that has had an increase in enrollment. He adds that one of the biggest areas of enrollment is dual- enrollment with Southampton High School being one of the strongest high schools with dual enrollment in the college system, leading to students that will graduate from college April 10, 2019 before graduating from high school; which is a tremendous amount of financial savings for parents; x A food pantry has been set up at both campuses and the center in Smithfield because students are coming into the campus without food and are mal-nourished; x PDCCC is working with the Port of Virginia to provide training for individuals to work in warehouses. This program will kick-off in the next couple of months; x Work-Force Center has increased the number of programs and certifications that it provides based on workforce in our service region; x PDCCC’s athletic program is growing and is in the second year of baseball. The games have at times been attended by over 400 people. PDCCC’s softball and baseball teams have been so successful this year that they will probably make regional playoffs; x PDCCC has upgraded the City owned Armory Field (where the softball team plays) and paid for all upgrades including pushing the fence back all the way to the sidewalk and raised up. These upgrades were made through donations; x PDCCC has hired local resident Clay Hyatt to run the newly started men’s and women’s soccer program which will add at least 15-20 additional students on campus. The soccer games are expected to begin this fall. Mr. Hyatt also serves as the student activities coordinator; x According to a recent economic analysis of the impact to athletics for our region, over $700,000 a year is being generated. Mr. Bradshaw concludes that Paul D. Camp College is growing and appreciates the County’s support. He reminds the Board that the college cannot use state fund tuition for anything five feet from the building and beyond. This includes no parking lot repairs, lights, trees, grass-cutting, etc. These funds must be local and/or donations. Vice-Chairman West asks the Board for questions. Mr. Porter questions when the golf program would begin at the college. Mr. Bradshaw answers that is under consideration. Mr. Porter adds that PDCCC has contracted with the Country Club for access with no charge at the course. He further adds that the college is looking at cross-country and tennis as well. The goal is to add a program each year as long as the funding is available. The next speaker is Bob Hayes. Western Tidewater Free Clinic – Bob Hayes, Board Member, thanks the Board for the opportunity to speak for consideration of the Western Tidewater 2019-2020 fiscal year funding request of $40,170. He continues the clinic is grateful for the funding that Southampton County has given since 2007 in a total amount of $104,250. Mr. Hayes shares some of the services the clinic has provided over the last twelve years: x Care to over 5500 unduplicated patients through more than 155,000 on-site visits since 2007. The services provided are medical, dental, women’s health, pharmacy, vision and mental health; x Patients have received over 250,000 free medications worth 47.2 million dollars; x 52% of patients are from Suffolk, 23% from Isle of Wight, 10% from Southampton County and 11% from Franklin; x The clinic served 1627 patients through 19,000 visits in 2018. This included 590 dental patients; x 6% of patients have an income at or below 100 percent poverty level; x Medication provided last year was valued at 8.6 million dollars. Free; x Volunteers help the clinic control operating cost donating over 8900 hours equivalent to 4.3 full-time employees; x Southampton resident Dr. Sharon Sheffield serves on the Board of Directors and volunteers one evening a month providing medical services; x Donations of $858 was given by five Southampton County residents; April 10, 2019 x In 2018, the clinic served 168 Southampton County residents as patients, visiting for services over 2000 times. This included 62 dental patients. This represents 10.5% of the total dental patients seen at the clinic. The cost of care averaged about $1200 per patient/per year; x In 2019, the operating budget for the clinic will be $1.9 million dollars; Mr. Hayes states that because the clinic is a long way from Southampton County, a representative comes to the Franklin Cooperative Ministry building in Franklin twice a month to interview future patients on eligibility or re-interview them if a repeater. Mr. Hayes summarizes by asking the Board to remember that the cost is $1200 per year per patient and that the clinic served 168 patients last year from Southampton County and expects to serve the same number or more this year at a cost of $201,000 to provide services for those patients. Mr. Hayes again made the request for $40,170 which is 10.3% of the amount being asked from all the municipalities. He concludes that for every dollar donated to the clinic, the clinic provides $6 worth of services. Mr. Hayes again thanks the Board for the money provided over the years and adds that he hopes the Board will continue. Mr. Hayes made himself available for questions. Vice-Chairman West asks the Board if there were questions. The next speaker is Steve Zollos. Senior Services, Steve Zollos, CEO for Senior Services of Southeastern Virginia states that this is a one stop resource for services for seniors. Mr. Zollos states that they service all the jurisdictions from Norfolk to Isle of Wight, Southampton and Franklin. Mr. Zollos states that Senior Services is requesting $10,545 in matching funds this year, $6960 of which will be used for direct services and $3585 for I-Ride services. Mr. Zollos offers an explanation of the services that Senior Services provides: x I-Ride provides transportation to primarily seniors, persons with disabilities and veterans. Anticipates 530 seniors and persons with disabilities and care-givers with 18,000 plus units of service this coming year; x Farmers Market vouchers which provides needing seniors with $40 checkbooks for fresh produce from local farmers; x Benefits counseling for benefits such as Medicare; x Care Transitions for persons leaving the hospital coming home, the goal being to lower the re-admissions rate which is typically about 18 and 20% for seniors being re-admitted within thirty days. As a result of this program, this rate is lowered to 7 or 8%; Mr. Zollos states that the funds requested last year have been fully utilized already. He states that as for return on investment, the total value of the project for Southampton is $264,274, which is a significant return on investment.

  • Ophelia Lived on the Floating Ark of Anima, One of the Few Territories To
    THE MIRROR VISITOR 2. T HE MISSING OF CLAIRDELUNE VOLUME 1 R ECALLED A W INTER ’S PROMISE phelia lived on the floating ark of Anima, one of the few territories to survive the Rupture of the old O world. And before she was betrothed, all was for the best in the best of all possible shattered worlds. Ophelia was certainly one of the clumsiest Animists, due to an accident with a mirror, but her hands had always produced excellent read - ings of objects and she felt at home in her museum. So, the day Thorn tears her away from her family and her ark to take her to the Pole, it’s her own world that’s shattered. Ophelia discov - ers the Citaceleste, a floating city built on illusions. The nobles there are endowed with dangerous powers and ready for all kinds of treachery to gain the favor of Farouk, their family spirit. He is the half-human, half-divine figure who rules over the Pole, and a disturbing character, to say the least. It doesn’t help that Thorn is the son of a disgraced woman and Treasurer of the Pole, so he’s detested by everyone. With the collusion of his aunt, Berenilde, he hides his fiancée from everyone while awaiting the marriage. First locked away in a manor, then disguised as a valet, Ophelia gets to know the ins and outs of this world that rejects her before even knowing her. And that’s how she finally learns of the existence of Farouk’s Book, an ancient and enigmatic tome with which the family spirit is truly obsessed.

  • Slayage, Number 9: Abbott
    Stacey Abbott Walking the Fine Line Between Angel and Angelus [1] Much of the discussion and analysis of the television series Buffy the Vampire Slayer has focused upon the show’s moral complexity in its representation of good and evil. Joss Whedon’s world is a world of grays rather than crisp black and white oppositions. The character Angel, the vampire with a soul, was one of the earliest introductions of this ambiguity into the series. The slayer and her friends were forced to accept that a vampire could be good. Difficult to accept but not as difficult as a loving boyfriend who can turn evil over night . again embodied in Angel. He offered the young Slayer, her friends and the audience a lot to think about in those first two seasons. While initially morally complex, as the series has developed and explored the far reaches of moral ambiguity through the actions of all of the Scooby Gang, Angel’s representation seems too neatly split across polar oppositions: the good Angel versus the evil Angelus. These two sides of Angel have been described by Beth Braun as “tortured soul” and “soulless demon” (90) and by Mary Alice Money as “soulful vampire extraordinaire” and “evil über-vampire” (98-99). [2] Rhonda V. Wilcox suggests, in “Every Night I Save You: Buffy, Spike, Sex and Redemption,” “[that] since Angel is good because he possesses a soul, he still represents an essentialist definition of good.” This is in contrast to the vampire Spike, who, she argues, “owns no human soul, yet repeatedly does good; if he can be seen as capable of change, capable of good, capable of love, then he can represent an existentialist definition of good” (paragraph 15).

  • 19 the Hero in Contemporary Spanish American
    SPRING 1972 19 The Hero in Contemporary Spanish American Theatre: A Case of Diminishing Returns JOAN REA GREEN The traditional role of the mythological hero demands that he follow a standard path of adventure which is a magnification of the formula represented in the rites of passage: i.e. separation-initiation-return. As Joseph Campbell de­ fines his quest, "A hero ventures forth from the world of common day into a region of supernatural wonder; fabulous forces are there encountered and a decisive victory is won; the hero comes back from his mysterious adventure with the power to bestow boons on his fellow man."1 When the figure of the hero is translated from myth to literature however, the traditional role is not always played, nor does the hero always follow the standard path. His stature, power, and behaviour have all been used as determinants in the classification of works of fiction. For example, Aristotle speaks, in Chapter II of the Poetics, of the differences in works of fiction which are caused by the varying elevations of the characters in them. Northrup Frye, employing Aristotle's use of the words oxa/iSatoç and i/^oc^Àoç in their figurative sense of weighty and light rather than in their moralistic sense of good and bad, classifies fictions by the hero's power of action, which may be greater than ours, less, or roughly the same.2 Thus, he states, we may have the hero who is superior in \ind to other men and to their environment. He is a divine being, and the tales told about him will be myths in the common sense.

  • The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders
    The ICD-10 Classification of Mental and Behavioural Disorders Clinical descriptions and diagnostic guidelines World Health Organization -1- Preface In the early 1960s, the Mental Health Programme of the World Health Organization (WHO) became actively engaged in a programme aiming to improve the diagnosis and classification of mental disorders. At that time, WHO convened a series of meetings to review knowledge, actively involving representatives of different disciplines, various schools of thought in psychiatry, and all parts of the world in the programme. It stimulated and conducted research on criteria for classification and for reliability of diagnosis, and produced and promulgated procedures for joint rating of videotaped interviews and other useful research methods. Numerous proposals to improve the classification of mental disorders resulted from the extensive consultation process, and these were used in drafting the Eighth Revision of the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-8). A glossary defining each category of mental disorder in ICD-8 was also developed. The programme activities also resulted in the establishment of a network of individuals and centres who continued to work on issues related to the improvement of psychiatric classification (1, 2). The 1970s saw further growth of interest in improving psychiatric classification worldwide. Expansion of international contacts, the undertaking of several international collaborative studies, and the availability of new treatments all contributed to this trend. Several national psychiatric bodies encouraged the development of specific criteria for classification in order to improve diagnostic reliability. In particular, the American Psychiatric Association developed and promulgated its Third Revision of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, which incorporated operational criteria into its classification system.

  • Politics of the Past: the Use and Abuse of History
    Cover History and Politics:Mise en page 1 3/20/09 4:04 PM Page 1 Twenty years after the end of the Cold War and the collapse of communism the battles about the right interpretation of the twentieth century past are still being fought. In some countries even the courts have their say on what is or is not the historical truth. But primarily politicians have claimed a dominant role Politics of the Past: in these debates, often mixing history and politics in an irresponsible way. The European Parliament has become the arena where this culminates. Nevertheless, not every Member of Parliament wants to play historian. That is the The Use and Abuse of History background of Politics of the Past, in which historians take the floor to discuss the tense and ambivalent relationship between their profession and politics. Pierre Hassner: “Judges are no better placed than governments to replace open Edited by dialogue between historians, between historians and public opinion, between citizens and within and between democratic societies. That is why this book is Hannes Swoboda and such an important initiative.” Jan Marinus Wiersma Politics of the Past: The Use and Abuse of History The of the Past: Politics Cover picture: Reporters/AP 5 7 2 6 2 3 2 8 2 9 ISBN 92-823-2627-5 8 7 QA-80-09-552-EN-C ISBN 978-92-823-2627-5 9 Politics of the Past: The Use and Abuse of History Edited by Hannes Swoboda and Jan Marinus Wiersma Dedicated to Bronisław Geremek Bronisław Geremek, historian, former political dissident and our dear colleague, was one of the speakers at the event which we organized in Prague to commemorate the Spring of 1968.
