  Joyce James, an assistant director of CPS, was the first to testify before the House committee, chaired by Patrick Rose, the young Democrat from Dripping Springs.
  ...
  Many of the lawmakers on the committee are new to the issue of child protective services, and they began peppering James with questions about how the agency functions.
  ...
  As James told the committee, CPS has another crisis arising from the other half of the agency's mission: foster care.
  ...
  "The department is waiting further instruction [on privatization] from the Legislature," James told the House committee.
  
  Meanwhile, CPS child placement remains a shambles.James conceded after a question from Austin Democrat Elliott Naishtat that the foster care system is so overwhelmed at times that CPS can't find a temporary residence for some kids.

  Joyce James, assistant commissioner for CPS, said children should be better off when the state intervenes to remove them from a dangerous home but "too often this is not the case in our system."
  
  "We need to change the way business is done, so children spend less time in foster care," she said.
  
  Alternate strategies
  
  She said she'd like to see more use of mediation, family group sessions and other services when children first are removed to possibly avoid a lengthy court case.
  
  James said older children who want to be in court when decisions are made about their future sometimes aren't able to attend, a problem that video conferencing or other technology might help.

  Joyce James says shortage of money keeping PAL from serving younger teens.
  
  Thanks to PAL, when she moved into her own apartment and had to write her first check, she knew where the signature went, she said.
  
  "I felt so cultured at that point," she said, smiling, during a hearing Thursday at the Capitol.
  ...
  But, said Joyce James, assistant commissioner for Child Protective Services at the Department of Family and Protective Services, "what we have heard consistently from youth is PAL services need to start earlier."
  
  Just 709 of the 5,216 14- and 15-year-olds in foster care last year received PAL services, James said.Because there are more 16- to 20-year-olds in foster care , an increase of 43 percent in the past five years that is due to youth growing up in the system , the program doesn't have the money to serve younger teens, James said.
  ...
  The state budget also doesn't stretch far enough to pay for all the foster children who request money through PAL for driver's education, James said.
  
  And that's not the only barrier."It can be a financial liability issue for foster parents," James said."It's not just getting the license."

  Joyce James, an assistant commissioner of the state department who runs CPS, acknowledged: "We have work to do."
  
  However, Ms. James said, preliminary results of a review of Tyler-area placement decisions show that "a pretty high percentage of children" are placed in Smith or contiguous counties.
  
  While Ms. James concedes that many parts of Texas don't have enough foster and adoptive parents, she said not everyone grasps how the system works.
  
  "We can't just pick slots," she said."We have to contact the providers, and they have to be willing to take the children.We can't say, 'You have a bed, you must take our kid.' It doesn't work that way."
  
  Ms. James said she does not think child-placing agencies are licensing unsuitable foster homes.
  
  "I know there's been some unfortunate types of situations with the licensing of families, but for the most part I would say we have good foster families," she said.
  
  She said federal law requires children's individual needs to be met, if possible, in the "least restrictive setting."For Ms. James, a foster family is ideal because the children can bond with the foster parents, not constantly changing "shift staff," as in group homes.
  ...
  Ms. James expressed little enthusiasm for such a system but said CPS should strive to "really work with local communities to improve the system."She vowed to collaborate to improve record-keeping on foster children, recruit more foster parents and expand programs to prevent child abuse.

  During his career Joyce suffered from rejections from publishers, suppression by censors, and attacks by critics, and misunderstanding by readers.Joyce's technical innovations in the art of the novel include an extensive use of interior monologue; he used a complex network of symbolic parallels drawn from the mythology, history, and literature, and created a unique language of invented words, puns, and allusions.From 1902 Joyce led a nomadic life, which perhaps reflected in his interest in the character of Odysseus.Although he spent long times in Paris, Trieste, Rome, and Zurich, with only occasional brief visit to Ireland, his native country remained basic to all his writings."The only demand I make of my reader," Joyce once told an interviewer, "is that he should devote his whole life to reading my works."James Joyce was born in Dublin as the son of John Stanislaus Joyce, impoverished gentleman, who had failed in a distillery business and tried all kinds of professions, including politics and tax collecting.Joyce's mother, Mary Jane Murray, was ten years younger than her husband.She was an accomplished pianist, whose life was dominated by the Roman Catholic Church and her husband.In spite of the poverty, the family struggled to maintain solid middle-class facade.
