State Police
to enforce
Lifesaver
Weekend
“This weekend, December
19, 20 and 21, is the start of
the winter holiday season for
celebrations and traveling,”
said Col. W. Steven Flaherty,
Superintendent of the Virginia State Police.
“The only way to save
lives on Virginia’s roads is by
having every driver and passenger put safety first this
holiday season by buckling
up, avoiding distractions,
sharing the road, obeying
speed limits, and driving drug
and alcohol free,” he said.
The state police will be
among law enforcement
agencies across the Commonwealth and the nation
participating in holiday safe
driving campaigns in recognition of Drunk and Drugged
Driving Prevention Month.
During the remaining
weeks of December through
January 1, Virginia State
Police will conduct Strikeforce sobriety checkpoints
and have roving enforcement patrols on designated
roadways. State police are
one of several state and local
law enforcement agencies
participating in the annual
campaign to raise public
awareness throughout the
Mid-Atlantic region about
the deadly dangers of drunk
driving.
The weekend before Christmas, Friday, December 19,
through Sunday, December
21, has been designated by
the International Association
of Chiefs of Police and Operation C.A.R.E. (the Combined Accident Reduction
Effort) as National Holiday
Lifesaver Weekend. Virginia
State Police and local law
enforcement will maximize
their efforts on problem roads
during the period that is traditionally the most popular
for holiday festivities and
alcohol consumption.
These safety programs
are part of Virginia’s multiagency statewide Highway
Safety Challenge, a partnership of state agencies, nonprofit and private-sector
groups and individual drivers
committed to reducing highway fatalities. Visit safeVAhighways.org.

“Rumors” cast members, from left are (front row) Judy Ebner, Brad Stephens, Doreen Robertson and Jay Couk; (next row) Ilona Duncan, Paul Vernon, Joseph Stallings, Tess Dumais
Cary Jones and Anita Shawver.
Lancaster Players participation
represents diversity of community
The Lancaster Players
ended a successful season of
community theater with the
presentation of “Rumors”
by Neil Simon, according to
president Kerley LeBoeuf.
“Rumors” played to sold-out
audiences for all seven performances.
The cast was an interesting
contrast of veteran and new
actors, he said.
“I directed two of these cast
members at The Playhouse
20 years ago, two other experienced actors were on our
stage for the first time and
three others were on stage for
the first time ever,” said director Rebecca Tebbs Nunn.
Diversity and inclusion have
been two guiding values since
The Playhouse was reopened
last year, explained LeBoeuf.
During 2008, 111 roles were
performed in five productions
including 77 roles played by
students ages 4 through 19.
Many first-time actors have
learned the thrill of theater
as they were led by a cadre
of directors including John
Baumhardt, Robin Blake,
Mark Favazza and Nunn, said
LeBoeuf.
Jay Couk, who played Mr.
Banks in “Mary Poppins,”
said, “My experience with
the directors and cast was
the most rewarding thing I’ve
done in a decade. It was like
being a member of a close
family and I’m sorry it had to
end.”
“Total paid attendance for
the 2008 season was 2,140
guests and they were served
by a wonderful group of over
100 volunteers who enjoy the
camaraderie and being part
of delivering community theater,” said LeBoeuf. “Thanks
to everyone who supported
The Lancaster Players during
these months of getting The
Playhouse back on a successful track.”
The Lancaster Players delivers community theater for
actors, audiences and those
who like to participate in any
way, he said. All participants
are volunteers.
The Lancaster Players owns
The Playhouse at 361 Chesapeake Drive in White Stone.

I feel as though I have no
energy lately. I am so tired
that I wake up exhausted most
mornings. Is being exhausted
a normal part of getting older?
What can I do to feel more
energetic?
The short answer to your first
question is no. Fatigue is not a
normal part of the aging process. In fact, fatigue in seniors
is often a sign of serious health
problems, which can go undiagnosed because we sometimes
mistakenly consider fatigue a
normal sign of aging. The first
thing you should do is see your
doctor to be sure that your lack
of energy isn’t a symptom of a
bigger health issue.
Your physician should have
some advice for you in regards to
feeling more energetic based on
your particular situation. In the
meantime, here are a few tips.
It is important for you to get
exercise each day, if possible.
This can be a walk outdoors or
at the local mall or doing some
house or yard work that keeps
you moving for 20 to 30 minutes. Physical activity not only
helps to maintain your strength,
flexibility and balance—it can
also help you feel energized and
help you sleep well at night.
A protein rich, vitamin, and
mineral rich diet is ideal and
helps foster a healthy body.
Eating a variety of fresh fruits,
vegetables, dairy products, and
lean meats each day is the best
nutritional regime.
Drinking 6 to 8 cups of fluids
such as juice, milk, water, or
herbal teas are important to maintain a healthy level of hydration.
As we age, we are more susceptible to dehydration which can
zap energy.

own health and aging concern,

Governor praises
CORE results
Gov. Tim Kaine and First
Lady Anne Holton recently
praised the positive results
of the work by the Council on
Reform (CORE) to improve
the rate of permanent placement for foster children in Virginia.
It has been a year since
Gov. Kaine began an intensive effort to improve the
delivery of child welfare and
mental health services to the
youth and families of Virginia.
Part of this effort was a challenge to both public and private agencies to build on the
momentum of First Lady Anne
Holton’s For Keeps initiative,
and work together to find more
permanent family connections
for children in foster care.
“Data indicate what we
know instinctively—kids are
better off in the care of a loving
family,” Gov. Kaine said. “The
Commonwealth is working to
increase the number and rate
at which children in foster
care move into permanent
family arrangements. It’s a big
job, which is why it’s critical
for public and private agencies
at the state and local level to
work together.”
The first phase of this work
began with 13 geographically-diverse localities, which
became known as CORE. Since
October of 2007, CORE agencies have reduced placements
in group care by 133 children or 16 percent, decreased
the total number of youth in
foster care by four percent,
and increased their discharges
to permanent homes by nine
percent.
Over the past year, the
CORE localities have implemented a variety of strategies
and national best practices that
have proven effective in connecting children, particularly
older youth, with permanent
families. Strategies include
improving ways to recruit
and train foster and adoptive
families, empowering youth
and families to have more of
a voice in critical decisions
and committing to continuous
quality improvement through
effective data management.
The innovative strategies
and partnerships developed
through CORE will be adapted
and implemented statewide in
Virginia’s larger Children’s
Services System Transformation.
As the Children’s Services
System Transformation moves
forward, First Lady Holton
continues her outreach to key
stakeholders including Community Policy and Management Teams (CPMTs) and
Juvenile and Domestic Relations court judges throughout
the state.
“As a former Richmond
judge, I saw many young
people without a connection
to the permanent family they
deserved. We need to take
a fresh look at solutions for
keeping kids safe and in the
care of a family,” First Lady
Holton said. “Maybe this
means searching a little harder
to find a relative who’s willing
to help, or utilizing more community-based services so kids
can stay connected to families.
Every agency that serves children has the opportunity to
make a huge difference in the
future of kids in foster care.”
Ray Ratke, special advisor
on children’s services for the
Commonwealth, has also led
CORE to establish a statewide
philosophy that will guide
a shift in service delivery,
encourage effective collaboration across child-serving
agencies, and achieve practice
consistency.
“Every community in Virginia has its own unique
strengths and challenges too,”
Ratke said. “Ultimately, we
must be guided by the same
child-centered, and familyfocused philosophy and practice model, no matter the
geographical boundary.”
Contributing to the overall success of CORE and the
Virginia Children’s Services
Transformation is the support
and technical assistance from
the Annie E. Casey Foundation, as well as best practices
learned from other states
involved in similar reform
efforts.
“We’re listening, we’re
learning and the data tells us
that we’re on the right track,”
said Ratke. “Most of all, we’re
eager to bring new strategies,
training and other supports
to the rest of the Commonwealth.”
Wishing you a joyous
holiday season!

Rappahannock Record • Kilmarnock, VA • December 18, 2008
Investment management specialist addresses Rotary
“How are you, your family
and your friends coping in
this market?”
That’s the first question
Michele Faulkner, first vice
president of Neal & Nickel
Wealth
Management
of
Wachovia Securities, may
now ask clients.
This market is very different in many ways, Faulkner
recently explained to the
Northern Neck Rotary Club.
Normally there is one asset
class that is active in which
one can hide for a while. This
time all asset classes will
likely be down.
The biggest issue in this
market are the emotions
one feels from being bombarded by bad financial and
economic news according
to Faulkner. We must regain
trust in our financial institutions for the market to stabilize. We hear it everywhere.
Even the late night comics.
The bailouts are probably
going to happen; they are a
necessity and we will likely
pay for them for a long time.
Faulkner told the club there
are tools in place as a result
of the crash of 1929. For
example, in 1929 the margin
requirement was 10 percent
and was changed to 50 percent following the crash.
After the 1987 October drop,
circuit breakers were put in
place that would halt trading
if the market falls 10 percent
in one day.
There are so many things
that are out of your control,
said Faulkner. You have to
step back and reassess your
long-term goals. A Bear
market is defined as one in
which the value has dropped
20 percent or more from their
highs. Faulkner said, we are
in the “and more” stage now.
Usually it starts with one
sector and then drifts into
other sectors.
This is the Katrina of
financial cycles. Beginning
with the Silicon Valley slide;
not helped by 9/11; and then
the housing market contributed to the current situation.
The Savings and Loan situation in the late ‘80s and early
‘90s in which the insurance
was increased and the S&Ls
Michele Faulkner of Neal & Nickel Wealth Management
is flanked by Bob Byrne (left) and Dick Slember following
Faulkner’s presentation to the Northern Neck Rotary Club.
took on more risky loans is
very similar to today’s situation in many ways, Faulkner
said. While market cycles
normally have a Bear market
occurring about every threeand-a-half years, Faulkner
believes it will be another 50
years before we experience
another of this magnitude.
In 2005-07 we had the
housing bubble fueled by
the idea that everyone in the
U.S. needs to own a home.
We came up with easy to
obtain lending, sub prime,
loans and creative offerings.
As a result, home speculators
got into the market, many of
whom should not have been.
Faulkner said that during this
time she had investor clients
who came in and said take
everything out of the market
and move into real estate.
Everyone was sure that housing was going to continue to
go up. New types of investments began to appear. These
exotic, now toxic, offerings
were packaged groups of
loans were highly marketed
as highly rated instruments
Faulkner said.
Where we are at present in this Bear market, no
one knows, Faulkner said.
Because of the tools in place
in the financial system,
A recovery should come
quicker than in the past
without them. It may not be
known that a state of recovery exists, until the recession
is over, officially.
The market looks forward
and likes stability. Faulkner
said that when the market can
see stability and opportunity

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING
LITTLE WICOMICO RIVER NO WAKE
MARKER
Notice is hereby given pursuant to Chapter 11,
15.2-2204 of the Code of Virginia as amended that
the Northumberland County Board of Supervisors
will hold a public hearing on January 8, 2009 at 7:00
p.m. in the Northumberland County Courts Building
at 39 Judicial Place adjacent to the Sheriff’s Office in
Heathsville, VA to consider designating a “No Wake”
area on the Little Wicomico River. The current “No
Wake” zone that goes from Cockrells Marine Railway
to Sherwood Forest Subdivision will be removed and
the new “No Wake” zone will only encompass around
Cockrells Marine Railway, then only around J.D.
Krentz Marina and the area around the Sherwood
Forest Subdivision community pier. There will not be
a “No Wake” area between these designated zones.
Maps of the proposed No Wake Zones are on the
County’s website at www.co.northumberland.va.us
and in the County Administrator’s Office.
All written comments should be received
by the County Administrator’s Office prior to the
meeting. For further information concerning this
matter, contact the County Administrator’s Office at
the Old Courthouse in Heathsville, VA (580-7666 or
email [email protected]) where all
interested persons may review the applications in
full. If you are physically disabled, hearing or visually

on the horizon it will begin to
respond, even though it may
take some time for the recovery to take hold.
With professional help,
individual investors must take
responsibility for their individual situation. But, said
Faulkner, where do I go in
such dire financial markets?
Evaluate your risk tolerance
and look to the long haul. If
an investor was in for five
years or less, they should not
have been in the market in
the first place, according to
Faulkner. Go to the basics:
what are your investment
goals? If you are in a longterm plan, value will return
to your portfolio in time.
In the short term, review
your tax situation and make
moves that will reduce your
taxes. Taxes will not likely
change until late 2009 according to Faulkner. Estate taxes
affect less than less than 4/10
of 1% of Americans. $3.5
million can be sheltered from
estate taxes, $7 million for
couples. Tax changes will
likely not affect individuals
making less than $250,000
per year.
It’s a great time to buy if an
investor is in the accumulation phase of their program.
Buy quality, there are companies offering great dividends.
Reinvest as your dividends
will buy more shares at the
reduced prices. By all means
continue your 401K contributions, especially where the
employer is matching your
contributions. Faulkner said
she could not over emphasize
this point.
If an investor is in the distribution phase (withdrawal)
of a retirement program, they
should leave the portfolio in
the market if they can sleep
at night,
Faulkner said.
To try to get out and plan
to get back in is very difficult to time, as you never
know exactly when to reinvest. Faulkner said that the
only place to have a chance
to recover is in the market.
No other financial instrument offers this opportunity.
The old adage of diversify,
diversify, diversity did not
hold up in recent markets.
Fight panic and fear. Don’t
delay the investment process.
Many investors are now keeping too little in stocks. We
have to regain confidence in
the economic system, we can
talk ourselves into a depression according to Faulkner.
Don’t pay too much in taxes.
Municipal bonds are attractive and carry a high rating
still. Don’t chase returns.
What was good in the past
may not be in the future.
Don’t move between sectors
or stocks because of recent
returns. Buy staples. People
still eat, drink, and smoke
(if not here, in foreign markets).
Continue to look at the
underlying fundamentals of a
company. If the stock goes
down, see what changed and
if the fundamentals of the
company are still sound. Be
ready for the recovery. There
are companies and other
economies poised for expansion, Faulkner told the club.
The Northern Neck Rotary
Club meets at Lee’s Restaurant on Wednesdays at 7:30
a.m. for Breakfast.

Project Joy focuses on unity
by Lynn E. Norris
Project Joy sponsor Timothy Donley saluted the “tenacity and faithful dedication”
of the incarcerated veterans
at Haynesville Correctional
Center (HCC), whose hearts
and hard work bestowed
an unforgettable Christmas
December 5 on the Smiths of
Tappahannock, (not their real
name).
After watching the Smith
children enjoy the choir’s melodies, the hosts craned their
necks as they listened to the way
the youngsters chortled with
delight at a Spiderman video,
a doll, a gumball machine and
four brand-new bicycles.
Twin 8-year-olds, Lynice
and Lynae, and their brothers Takeyo, 6, and Antonio, 5,
responded with grins and gestures of gratitude to brightly
wrapped presents.
Their smiles were matched
by those of their mother, who
wished the HCC crew “a very
merry Christmas, a blessed
Christmas.”
A single mother, Tyler Smith
has been out of work since September due to illness and problems with babysitting logistics.
Thanks to the veterans’ generosity, the Haynesville staff,
and community merchants and
friends, the family will start the
year off in much better shape.
This is the 15th year the
veterans outreach group has
adopted a community family
and created a winter wonderland to surround the children
at a special banquet. Over the
years, man after man has been
reduced to tears, remembering
his own absent children and
feeling welcomed back to the
larger family of mankind.
Guest speaker Myrtle Phillips told more than 140 Veterans Outreach Group (VOG)
members and associates that
she felt honored and humbled
at the way they had chosen
to make life better for those
around them.
She praised them for creating a circle around their flag to
integrate themselves back into
society and uphold the principles of their country. “The flag means more than
words. Words don’t mean anything if not backed up with
action,” she said. “Don’t get
discouraged. Become as educated as you can. Keep moving
forward. Hold your heads up
very, very high and remember
it’s important to do the right
thing, to help one another,” she
said.
Phillips shared the story of
her own family, including her
pride in her husband who was
a commander of the Old Guard
(guarding the Tomb of the
Unknown Soldier); he retired
as a full colonel after marching
in Reagan’s inaugural parade
and serving behind the Berlin
Wall. Their sons and daughterin-law also serve in the armed
forces. A daughter who has
multiple sclerosis is a dean at
William and Mary and faces
tremendous challenges each
day, even getting out of bed. But this young woman mothers two children, writes history
books and was recently invited
to come to Germany to speak
about the accomplishments of
Barack Obama.
Phillips told the veterans
she loved them because she
has seen tremendous growth
in them. She admonished the
men to remember “everybody
makes mistakes, which we
must ask God to forgive.”
Project Joy co-chairmen
Scott Beranek and Gary Riley
thanked some three dozen
guests, volunteers and staff
members for helping to make
“...and a Northern Neck State Bank
CollegeWealth 529 plan...”

Guaranteed growth, FDIC insured and a 2008 state
tax deduction put this plan at the top of your list.

deMoranville.
the evening cheerful, comforting and blessed. “Project Joy has strengthened my spirits and my passion
for patriotism,” Riley added.
HCC librarian Edie Hudgins
was a whirlwind of activity
throughout the year, especially
during a final week that culminated in many labors. The
evening’s rhythm was played at
double-time to get her home to
her sick daughter.
VOG president Lilton Sykes
told the veterans that every
penny they gave out of their
hard-earned salaries made a
difference to the Smiths and
others like them. “When you
give 23 cents, that’s about
love. That’s about God,” Sykes
noted.
He paid a special salute to
HCC staffer M. Stoner and to
the group’s founding sponsor,
the Rev. Dr. Ralph Gardiner,
for shepherding them during
evening meetings.
Rev. Gardiner wished the
men godspeed and told them
he was proud to see the way
the group continues to grow
despite all challenges and has
become well known throughout the entire Department of
Corrections.
Honor Guard platoon leader
Lonnie Crowder asked his
men what their flag meant to
them. “Country. Service. Community outreach, sir!” platoon
members barked in return.
“Pride, respect for self and
others. Determination to get
the job done,” they said.
Project Joy has come to
symbolize their flag for many. Asked to summarize its meaning, many were ready with a
word or a phrase.
W. Jackson: “Inspiring.” C.
Jefferson: “Joyful.” D. Brown:
“Remembrance.”
Romie
Brown: “Healing.” W. Billings: “Compassion, empathy.”
David Rayburn: “Delighted.”
Joshua Bonniville: “Grateful.”
“Elated,” said Samuel Glass.
“It’s a joy to see a family get
what they need,” said Richard
Smith. “It’s hard on people
with big families these days.
I know. I came from a big
family.”
“I’m just glad to participate,
glad to help others. It means a
lot to me and the guys who are
away from our own families,”
noted Melvin Shifflett.
“Being able to help while
inside the prison is a life-changing experience. I’m used to
taking instead of giving. Being
able to give at this time of year
makes this a very joyous occasion,” said Jerome Person.
Jeimes Gaskins expressed
gladness at “being here to see
the children have a good time
and share Christmas with
somebody’s family.”
“It’s a wonderful thing that
they do,” one correctional officer summed up as she listened
to the choir sing “I’ve got a
blessing with your name on
it. You’ve got a blessing. We’ve
got a blessing.”
Assistant warden Patrick
Gurney, a former sociology
professor, described Project
Joy as “very pleasing, a very
noble thing to do. Look at the
kids’ faces.” He raced to the
front of the room with other
staff members pushing the
kids’ bicycles.
“I’m kind of overwhelmed,”
said inmate William Edwards
as he watched the impromptu
parade the young Smiths created, weaving in and out of
the crowd. “It’s so long since I
saw kids ride bikes like that.”
“Ah, man. I’m at a loss
for words,” said one of the
youngest singers, Christopher
Dennis.
“It was very lovely, surely
a blessing, especially since
I don’t have any children,”
added fellow musician M.
Stovall, who recently led a
back-to-school drive to provide area students with school
supplies.
It was Todd Wood’s first
time at a Project Joy banquet
and he unashamedly brushed
tears from his eyes. “It’s the
best thing I’ve ever seen,” the
father of three boys summed
up. “I feel like I’m home.”

obtain. The compassionate,
thorough care she receives
helps to keep her going.
“The free health clinic is a
real blessing,” she says.
Theresa has seen the clinic
evolve from its one-room
beginning in the Lancaster
health department, through
its years in a mobile unit
on DMV Drive, to its current facility that houses a
dental clinic and pharmacy,
said executive director Jean
Nelson.
Funded largely
through private donations
and grants, the clinic has a
real need for donors as 2008
comes to a close, she added.
“We took a hit on our operating budget this year because
we focused so much energy
on creating an endowment,”
said Nelson. “The endowment
helps secure our future, but
it’s the operating budget that
sustains services, and we’re
currently $320,000 short.”
To make a donation, contact the clinic at 435-0575, or

afforded my medicines,” said
Theresa. “The clinic helped
me go to MCV for tests and
to take care of my eyes, and
I also see a chiropractor for
the pain in my back”—pain
so intense her mother has to
physically help her out of bed
in the morning.
When she was diagnosed
with diabetes, she says, “It
was very upsetting, but then I
took the diabetes class at the
clinic. The nurse practitioner
helped me to understand the
disease and what I could do
to keep it under control.”
She learned about proper
nutrition, safe ways to exercise, and discovered a network of supportive staff and
volunteers who, she says,
“are really helpful and the
doctors take the time to talk
to me and explain what’s
going on.”
Theresa has not given
up hope of one day working again, but with her preexisting conditions, health
insurance will be difficult to

“I don’t think I’d be alive
right now if the free clinic
wasn’t here.” Theresa, whose
name has been changed for
the purposes of this article, has been coming to the
Northern Neck Free Health
Clinic since it first opened in
1993.
Born and raised in White
Stone, she graduated from
Lancaster High School in
1990. She spent six years
working as a cashier in a
local convenience store as
well as on a fishing boat.
Both her jobs involved
long hours on her feet, causing severe back pain and
knee problems, but neither
provided health insurance.
When she was diagnosed a
few years ago with diabetes,
coupled with asthma and high
blood pressure, she found
herself where many people
are today: out of work.
She credits the clinic with
saving her life.
