His first rather patriotic plays T h e "The Wanderings of Oisin" Countess Cathleen (1892) and Cathleen ní Houlihan (1902) were mainly written during the time of his long liaison with Maud Gonne who strengthened his enthusiasm for Irish It was W. B. Yeats who in his work drew heavily on old Irish historical and folk materials and thus contributed n a t i o n a l i s m . notably to what came to be called the Celtic Revival. "The Wanderings of Oisin" is a mystical narrative poem about Oisin, the poet of the Celtic Fionn cycle who spends 300 years in the pre-Christian Otherworld. After returning from the Otherworld he has a passionate conversation with St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland, in which he is full of praise for the pagan values he has experienced there. – W.

  • Legislative Update for March 9, 2019
    Supporting Vermonters to lead healthy and satisfying lives community by community Legislative Update for March 9, 2019 The Legislature is on Town Meeting Day Break for one week. When it returns on March 12th there will be a flurry of activity to pass bills out of committees of jurisdiction by the March 15th crossover deadline. This deadline does not apply to bills authored by full committees or the money bills. The House Appropriations Committee is aiming to complete their budget proposal by March 19th. Early Stage Appropriations Advocacy is Successful Thanks to great advocacy efforts by advocates and agencies from around the state the Vermont Care Partners provider network made a good showing in the recommendations of the two key house policy committees in their FY2020 budget memos to the House Appropriations Committee. In fact, the House Health Care Committee made increased funding to improve designated and specialized service agency (DA/SSA) workforce compensation their number one funding priority. While the House Health Care Committee requested a 4% increase for DA/SSAs, the House Human Services Committee requested a 2% increase. Now the House Appropriations Committee will weigh those memos and the other advocacy they have received from: the public hearings; our advocacy days for disabilities and mental health; and individual outreach. While Representative Hooper is responsible for the DMH budget and Representative Lanpher is responsible for the DAIL budget, the full committee votes on priorities as a committee. In addition to improved funding for workforce, the House Health Care Committee put in a plug for electronic health records (EHR) systems one-time investment and for the workforce development proposal for the Tobacco Settlement funds from Vermont Care Partners which calls for a 3-year commitment to work at a DA/SSA to receive tuition assistance or loan repayment.
