Mental Health Best Practices A discussion with Rev. Joel A. Bowman, Sr., MSW, LCSW Founder & Senior Pastor of Temple of Faith Baptist Church- Louisville, Kentucky Licensed Clinical Social Worker KEY DEFINITIONS MENTAL HEALTH includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act, and helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make choices (SAMSHSA- Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration). MENTAL ILLNESSES are medical conditions that disrupt a person's thinking, feeling, mood, ability to relate to others and daily functioning. Just as diabetes is a disorder of the pancreas, mental illnesses are medical conditions that often result in a diminished capacity for coping with the ordinary demands of life (NAMI- National Alliance on Mental Illness). Biblical Framework for Understanding Mental Health 1 Thessalonians 5:23 (NIV) 23 May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. 3 John 2 (NIV) 2 Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well. Mark 12:30 (NIV) 30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. Luke 2:52 (NIV) 52 And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and man. Romans 8:19-22 (NIV) 19 For the creation waits in eager expectation for the children of God to be revealed. 20 For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by the will of the one who subjected it, in hope 21 that the creation itself will be liberated from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. 22 We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. About Pastor Joel A. Bowman, Sr. He is a native of Detroit, Michigan. Raised in a Christian home, Pastor Bowman accepted Christ as his personal Lord and Savior at the age of 12. Pastor Bowman holds a Bachelor of Social Work degree and a Master of Social Work degree from Wayne State University. Pastor Bowman also graduated from Michigan Theological Seminary (now known as Moody Seminary- Michigan Campus). Upon moving to Louisville in 1999, Pastor Bowman began his ministry as a senior pastor. Since 2001, he has served as founder and senior pastor of the Temple of Faith Baptist Church in South Louisville. Pastor Bowman is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), with over 30 years of experience in the mental health field. He has practiced as a clinician in the states of Michigan, Kentucky, and Indiana. Currently, Pastor Bowman is a team leader and therapist with the U. S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), providing mental health treatment to America’s military Veterans. Pastor Bowman has guest lectured at the Garland School of Social Work at Baylor University, Kent School of Social Work at the University of Louisville, Campbellsville University, Carver College and the Baptist Seminary of Zimbabwe. A respected thought leader and free-lance writer, Pastor Bowman has been quoted in The Washington Post, USA TODAY, the Associated Press, the Christian Post, and the Baptist Press. Pastor Bowman and his beloved wife, Nannette Mitchell Bowman, are the proud parents of 2 daughters, Kayla and Katie, as well as 1 son, Joel, Jr. They also have one informally-adopted daughter named MaKayla. Note: Though Pastor Bowman is federal employee, in this presentation, he is representing himself. Pastor Bowman can be followed @JoelABowmanSr and acompellingvoice.com.
The usual history of architecture is a grand narrative of soaring monuments and heroic makers. But it is also a false narrative in many ways, rarely acknowledging the personal failures and disappointments of architects. In Bleak Houses, Timothy Brittain-Catlin investigates the underside of architecture, the stories of losers and unfulfillment often ignored by an architectural criticism that values novelty, fame, and virility over fallibility and rejection. As architectural criticism promotes increasingly narrow values, dismissing certain styles wholesale and subjecting buildings to a Victorian litmus test of “real” versus “fake,” Brittain-Catlin explains the effect this superficial criticality has had not only on architectural discourse but on the quality of buildings. The fact that most buildings receive no critical scrutiny at all has resulted in vast stretches of ugly modern housing and a pervasive public illiteracy about architecture. Timothy Brittain-Catlin is Senior Lecturer at the new Kent School of Architecture, University of Kent. His writing has appeared in The World of Interiors, Architectural Review, and many other publications. Learn more about your ad choices.

In Season 2, Episode 28 of A is for Architecture, Gordana Fontana Giusti discusses her 2013 book, Foucault for Architects, published by Routledge, as part of the Thinkers for Architects series. Gordana is Professor of Architecture and Urban Design at Kent School of Architecture & Planning, University of Kent, where she also serves as Deputy Head of School. Foucault for Architects ‘concentrates on a number of historical and theoretical issues often addressed by Foucault […] in order to examine and demonstrate their relevancy for architectural knowledge, its history and its practice'. In an AA Files 26 essay from 1993, Paul Hirst suggested Foucualt's relevance to architecture lay in his breaking down ‘the barrier between the common-sense category of objects and that of discourse: words, explanations, programmes, etc., which are held to be about objects. In architecture this yields the stubborn and conclusive distinction between buildings as objects, and architectural theories, programmes and teaching that are about buildings. This installs a split between architecture and architectural discourse. The building is an object or non-discursive entity around which float the words of discourse.' Listen to Prof Gordana, and get some answers. Available on Spotify, iTunes, Google Podcasts and Amazon Music. Gordana is presenting her thinking on Foucault at an event titled Dialogue 1: Foucault/Merleau-Ponty/Latour as part of a Thinkers for Architecture programme run by the AHRA, on 24 to 27 April 2023 at Manchester, UK, alongside previous podcast guests Jonathan Hale and Albena Yaneva. You can get the book here (20% off in April, apparently), and find Gordana professionally here, on LinkedIn here, on Instagram here, and on Twitter here.

In the third episode of 2022/3's A is for Architecture series, I speak with Professor Juliet Davis, Head of the Welsh School of Architecture, Cardiff University. Juliet is a scholar, architect, writer and educator. We speak about her recent book The Caring City: Ethics of Urban Design, published this year by Bristol University Press. We talk about Juliet's motivations for the book, guided by her approach to architecture born of her years in practice and education, and the underlying notion of an ethics of care (and carelessness) on which the book is founded, care as it is encountered in urban fabric, and how such an approach might be better embedded in urban design practices. The Caring City is a great book and you should buy it (link above). You can watch Juliet speak around some of its subjects on the Pakhuis de Zwijger YouTube channel, as part of its (their?) Designing Cities for All series, in an episode called Creating Cultures of Care: The Caring City. Juliet was previously an RIBA external examiner on the undergraduate programme at the Kent School of Architecture & Planning, University of Kent, which is where I first met her. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + Music credits: Bruno Gillick + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + aisforarchitecture.org Apple: podcasts.apple.com Spotify: open.spotify.com Google: podcasts.google.com

The Kent School District teachers strike is now on its fifth day. That means many students who rely on free school lunches don't have access to meals. But two Kent district moms are making sure students are fed while both sides remain at an impasse.
Kent School Board member, Joe Bento, resides in the district but is a union teacher in Renton. Bento is a trainer for the Washington Education Association which is a teacher's union and a delegate to the MLK County Labor Board per his school board election biography. Given his labor union related work, KVI's John Carlson wants to know if Benton has a conflict of interest as a school board member voting 'no' on a legal proposal that would take the striking Kent teachers to court to obtain an injunction under state law to start the school year instead of continuing the 4 day old strike.
A conservative school teacher in Kent says she supports the strike and tells KVI why. First reason is a restriction on outside pay the Kent district wants to cut from the next contract, another is a reduction in planning time from 50 minutes to 30 minutes. She says special needs teachers are understaffed and the social-emotional problems of the students need more attention. The teacher says teachers were never asked about supporting lock downs and that it was union leadership that decided on lock downs unilaterally. KVI's John Carlson addresses the teacher lament that they buy so many school supplies annually for students.

The website Crosscut.com reports that at least one striking Kent (WA) school teacher wants air conditioning in the class room. Another Kent school counselor wants someone to pay her gasoline bill to drive to work. KVI's John Carlson explores some of the teacher justifications for why they're striking and why families with children can't get their kids into the classroom. In addition, a Kent teacher's union spokesman says teachers are striking for more student mental health support after the COVID shutdowns that the teachers ironically advocated and supported. A recently retired teacher in King County calls the show to share her experience both in the union and the classroom.

A dad has accused a school of 'sweeping violence under the carpet' after his son was attacked. The Meopham School pupil was left with a black eye after it happened as he waited to be picked up at the end of term. We have a response from the head teacher.

In Episode 20 of A is for Architecture, I speak with historian, writer and professor, Alan Powers, about modernist architecture, any new ways we must view that architectural movement, that embraces its multiplicity of realisations, producers and ideas. In architectural education we tend to fetishize the great figures of modernism, leading to an unfortunate narrowing of what modernism was and is. This has been at the expense of other designers operating during the same period, and responding to the same social, cultural, economic and technological forces, but in ways that diverged from the established identity of the movement. Alan teaches at Kent School of Architecture and Planning, at the London School of Architecture and New York University, and is a trustee of the Twentieth Century Society. We spoke about The Lure of the Impure, published in A Magazine for Friends of RIBA Architecture, and 100 Buildings, 100 Years, published by Batsford and the Twentieth Century Society, and written with Tim Brittain-Catlin and Tom Dycoff. aisforarchitecture.org ++++++++++++++ Music credits: Bruno Gillick.

In Episode 13 of A is for Architecture, I speak with John Letherland, urbanist, masterplanner and director of John Letherland Ltd. John was a founding partner of Farrells, having worked alongside Sir Terry Farrell for 35 years, before setting up his own firm. I work alongside John at the Kent School of Architecture & Planning, where until recently, John ran the urban design Masters programme, MAUD. In this episode, we speak about the nature and character of urban design and masterplanning as distinct disciplines, related to – and obviously complimentary to - but fundamentally different from architecture. We touch on urban design's core functions and how it is enacted, discuss its relationship to community, and the natural, organic processes of development common to non-formal and less formal urban spaces. Of course, we also talk about how it should – but isn't often – taught. John's KSAP profile can be seen here and his LinkedIn profile is here. Our conversation was informed by two particular documents, the first an article by David Rudlin called ‘What is it about architects and urbanism?' which attempts to explain to architects the difference between architecture and urbanism; and the second, the Canterbury Campus Masterplan (‘The Framework Masterplan for the Canterbury campus') for the University of Kent which John wrote for the University in April 2019, finalised in Oct 2019, particularly Chapter 5. www.aisforarchitecture.org Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/2p8d9t7p Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/3va6a6b3 ++++++++++++++ Music credits: Bruno Gillick.

José Manuel Donoso Yáñez (Santiago, 5 de octubre de 1924 - Ib., 7 de diciembre de 1996), más conocido como José Donoso, fue un escritor, profesor y periodista chileno. Formó parte del llamado «boom latinoamericano» de las décadas de 1960 y de 1970. Entre 1950 y 1951, la revista de Princeton, MSS, publicó sus dos primeros cuentos en lengua inglesa: «The blue woman» y «The poisoned pastries». Viajó a México y a Centroamérica en 1951; luego regresó a Chile y en 1954 comenzó a enseñar inglés en el Pedagógico de la Universidad Católica y en el Kent School. Su primer libro —Veraneo y otros cuentos— apareció en 1955 y con él ganó el Premio Municipal de Santiago al año siguiente. Mientras vivía con una familia de pescadores en Isla Negra, publicó su primera novela, Coronación (1957), en la que describió la clase alta santiaguina y su decadencia. Ocho años más tarde, se publicó por primera vez en los Estados Unidos por Alfred A. Knopf y en Inglaterra por The Bodley Head. Recibió el Premio Nacional de Literatura en 1990 y la Orden al Mérito Docente y Cultural Gabriela Mistral en el grado de Gran Oficial en 1994. Continuó publicando algunos libros, aunque ellos no obtuvieron la misma repercusión de obras anteriores: las novelas breves Taratuta/Naturaleza muerta con cachimba (1990) y Donde van a morir los elefantes (1995), y las memorias Conjeturas sobre la memoria de mi tribu (1996). El 7 de diciembre de 1996 murió en su casa de la capital chilena. En su lecho de muerte, según se dice, pidió que le leyeran poemas de Altazor de Vicente Huidobro. Sus restos fueron inhumados en el cementerio de Zapallar. Su viuda, María Pilar Donoso, murió en Santiago en febrero de 1997. Póstumamente aparecieron El Mocho (1997) y Lagartija sin cola (2007) —esta última inconclusa y originalmente llamada La cola de la lagartija, pero cuyo título fue modificado por la editorial—. En 2010 se publicó una suerte de biografía —Correr el tupido velo, Premio Altazor 2011 de ensayo—, obra maestra de su hija adoptiva española, Pilar Donoso (1967-2011). En este libro, valiosísimo por mostrar el «laboratorio creativo» del escritor, se incluyeron muchos extractos de los diarios personales de Donoso y de su mujer, y se revelaron también la homosexualidad, la paranoia, el egocentrismo y los constantes e incurables problemas económicos del escritor, el alcoholismo y la adicción a los antidepresivos de su esposa, y la tormentosa relación y convivencia auto y alterdestructiva entre los tres. Su hija Pilar se suicidó con fármacos a mediados de noviembre de 2011. Solamente tras su muerte y la publicación de su obra epistolar personal, a comienzos del siglo XXI, se pudo comprobar su compleja homosexualidad, que históricamente había sido un tema tabú en el medio social y literario chilenos, aunque siempre fue un secreto a voces. Donoso, en sus cartas y en su diario, expresa el dolor de no poder vivir de modo armónico sus relaciones personales. (Fuente: Wikipedia)

This week The TV Boys sit down to discuss Ted Danson, one of our favorite actors and in many of our favorite shows. Also, Thomas teaches us a new word.
In 1913, the Franciscan order built the Waldniel Hoster School - this was a Christian religious order within the catholic church that was founded in 1209 by Saint Francis of Assisi. It was this huge space that consisted of a church, a school and several administrative buildings. However, with Hitler's rise to power in the 1930s and the Euthanasia decree coming into effect in 1939, the school became more or less a place of death and pain. It is estimated that 97 children lost their lives in the building, and their cries can still be heard to this day. The 97 children who had death certificates at the facility had causes of death such as emaciation, pneumonia, and cardiovascular weakness, but it is more than likely that the actual cause of death was due to the sleeping medication that was continuously administered. We hope that these souls eventually find peace, and hope you enjoy this eerie story… Stay safe out there.

John Schreiner is an organ builder, singer, and (luckily for us) a creative ringer.John learned to ring at Kalamazoo College; he remembers for us the experience of learning from Jeff Smith both in the classroom and in the tower.(Kalamazoo's handbell bands constructed methods including Kalamazoo Treble Bob Minor and Major, Stetson Surprise Minor, Queen's Gate Surprise Minor, Hinckley Delight Minor, Xarifa Delight Minor, Great Lakes Treble Bob Minor, Jeremiah Treble Bob Minor, and Michigan Delight Major.)We talk mostly about the construction of Academic Delight Major (on blueline and on complib), which was named at Kent School in memory of Nadia Yovanovitch, faculty emerita and mother of the Hon. Marie Yovanovitch. (Bellboard performance record.)We also learn that Martin Treble Bob Major was named for John's son! Thank you, friends.

Timothy Brittain-Catlin is an architect and Reader in the Kent School of Architecture, and we begin this insightful and informative interview by talking about buildings which elude even architects and how some of us are more image based and others function using words. Timothy also discloses why he thinks the Sat Nav is the work of the devil. Timothy talks about growing up just within the boundaries of inner London, and the notion of ‘rebuilding’ the past. He has a very vivid memory when it applies to buildings and Timothy reveals how one theme that does tend to repeat in his dreams is that of going back somewhere he once lived, and how this underlies all his work on architecture. We move on to a wider discussion about what dreams are about, and rationalizing the irrational. His mother was a public relations executive and Timothy recounts the time that the family moved to Scotland, and he talks about having a voice coach during his time in Israel and how image is conveyed through accents. We also learn why he spent the 1990s in Israel. We talk about the power of music, including ‘Morningtown Ride’ by The Seekers and listening to the Radio 3 midnight news in the 1980s, as well as about why architects don’t tend to be ‘word’ people, and we talk about the eligibility of submitting buildings rather than an article for the University's Research Excellence Framework. We discuss how architectural critiques come from personal experience, and how memories can be falsely remembered. Timothy also asks me whether we can only be nostalgic about shared experiences rather than individual ones. We move on to the notion of ‘correcting’ the past in the context of architecture, and about the fit, or lack of, between architecture and academia, and the Protestant work ethic. We talk about his family’s religious heritage, his SDP background (his aunt is Baroness [Shirley] Williams, one of the original Gang of Four). He talks about his experience of meeting politicians and why he could never have become a politician himself. I ask Timothy whether Shirley Williams would have wanted to be Leader of the Opposition had she won Stevenage in 1979, and we discuss how Tony Blair was in some respects to the right of the SDP. Timothy reveals why he doesn’t look back at anything too inquisitively, and he tells us what is ‘the only message worth giving’ and about the disparity in teaching quality sometimes between school and university, and why the style with which one writes doesn’t reflect one’s personality and how writing is a technical skill. Please note: Opinions expressed are solely those of Chris Deacy and Timothy Brittain-Catlin and do not necessarily represent the views or opinions of the University of Kent.

InternCLE Episode 024 – Kent State College of Business Launches a podcast! Podcast - https://www.kent.edu/business/kent-state-college-business-podcastCareer Services at Kent State College of Business - https://www.kent.edu/business/careersAndy Weyand is the Associate Director of Career Services at the Kent State College of Business. The idea for a podcast first came up in an employer advisory council meeting. The discussion centered on a new way to get the career services message out to the students. In the employer advisory council meeting there are students present as well. The interaction between the students and those employers in the meetings inspired the theme for the first release of the Kent State College of Business podcast – the Ready for Business Series. For the podcast, Andy interviewed 10 individuals across 8 companies on campus at Kent, this past spring. The employers were all asked the same questions on topics such as interviewing, resumes, job search advice. Andy then pieced together the conversations and advice into 8 individually themed episodes. The first episode has already launched and focuses on resume content. The production value of the podcast is excellent. New Episodes will launch every other week. Companies that participated – Vizion360, Sherwin Williams, Fathom, Quicken, Fastenal, BMF, Medical Mutual, FedEx Custom Critical. A Kent state student studying Marketing will help with the promotion of the podcast. Andy foresees much more student involvement going forward – including student interviews. Next step for the podcast – a speaker series, some content related to sustainability efforts of the college and more. If you are an employer wishing to connect with the Career Services team in the Kent School of business – email BusCareers@kent.edu or go to the employer section of the Careers web page to learn more: https://www.kent.edu/business/employers
