Frances Bronet serves as Acting Senior Vice President and Provost.
Thank you to all who participated in the Strategic Planning Process this academic year for your time, focus and energy. Together we establish a set of values, goals and priorities for the strategic direction of the university. I am deeply impressed by the collaboration of faculty, staff, students, and administrators who served on the four task force work groups. It was great to see how many people participated and contributed at the public work sessions.
In March, I communicated to campus about my commitment to bring together experts, including licensed therapists, faculty, General Counsel, and staff to propose new or clarified policies about confidentiality of students' medical and psychological records. That work is paramount to ensuring my promise to University of Oregon students that they will have the same level of strong confidentiality that they have in private, off-campus therapy.

text: Based on the line rushes and defense pairs in the Kings' game-day skate Tuesday at Staples Center, their lineup for Game 1 of their second-round playoff series against the San Jose Sharks on Monday night looks to be the same as it was for their first-round clincher against St. Louis. That means they won't have rugged left wing Kyle Clifford, who apparently suffered an injury during the series against the Blues, though the Kings aren't revealing anything. The fourth line in Game 6 against St. Louis -- and in Tuesday's morning skate -- was Jordan Nolan on the left, with veteran Colin Fraser in the middle and rookie Tyler Toffoli on the right.

Belkin N1 Wireless Adapter10/15/2008
I am running 64 bit Windows Vista. This adapter was very easy to install. Basically plug and play. It is compatible with g band routers as well. No need to upgrade to N band router. Device is sleek in design with silver and black. Blue LED makes for nice soft night light. Wish price was around $70 instead of $100 when I bought it.

Works well with the Belkin N1 router. Picks up a good signal at up to 300mbps. Could be a little less expensive though.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) -- Members of the Topeka Historic Site for Heritage Tourism Committee met Thursday afternoon to discuss bylaws.
The members met with the Transient Guest Tax Committee to go over grant guidelines that were recently rewritten.
Members tabled grant application procedures, stating those which are awarded grants should have a say in the process, but they did go ahead and approve new guidelines.
The Historic Tourism Committee is working to turn more local spots into tourist attractions. So far, it has distributed grants to Constitution Hall, Richie Hall, Curtis House, Jayhawk Theater, and the Topeka Council of Colored Women's Club Building.
The money is used to restore historic landmarks to promote heritage tourism.

1891 One Thousand Dollar Treasury Note - Unique In Collector HandsFr. 379c $1000 1891 Treasury Note PCGS Extremely Fine 45PPQ.
Only two examples of this design-type are known to exist. The first is this note, whose pedigree lists most of the important names in the history of US currency collecting. It was in the 1944 Barney Bluestone sale of the Grinnell Collection, then to Robert Friedberg, then to Amon Carter, Jr., followed by Jim Thompson, then on to Dean Oakes who sold it to Dr. Edward and Joanne Dauer (the only collectors who ever formed a complete collection of all known U.S. type notes), and finally to the Greensboro Collection. The second existing example has a much simpler history. It has resided in the National Numismatic Collection of the Smithsonian Institution since it was transferred there by the Treasury Department.
This note shares its basic face design with the "Grand Watermelon" in the previous lot. Both have the same striking vignette of General Meade, who took over as the head of the Army of the Potomac on the eve of the battle of Gettysburg. Meade was once referred to by an anonymous officer on his staff as looking like "a dammed old goggle-eyed snapping turtle." In his Pulitzer Prize winning book, A Stillness at Appomattox, Bruce Catton says essentially the same thing in much kinder words..."Major General Commanding George Gordon Meade was lean and grizzled, with a great hawk nose and a furious temper, and his staff had learned to read omens in his behavior. When the army was about to do something he gave off sparks, and those around him did well to step quietly and rapidly." Just a quick glance at the well executed vignette seems to tell us that the engraver was aware of Meade's reputation.
Although the "Grand Watermelon" note with the same basic face design has always received the better "press" due to its magnetic nickname, this note is actually far rarer. There are seven "Grand Watermelons" known, three of which are in private collections. The currently offered 1891 open back is unique in private hands and one of only two in existence.
PCGS has graded this note (which has historically been referred to as CU) Extremely Fine 45PPQ...history was wrong, PCGS got it right. Some argument could be made for AU, but the note clearly has light traces of circulation and the assigned grade should be considered accurate. The important PPQ designation, (which has been placed on this note's holder) is missing from virtually all high-denomination rarities, as restorations and repairs are nearly ubiquitous on these historic artifacts. The currently offered note is totally free of any improvements...none were ever needed as the note is absolutely perfect for its grade.
As with the 1863 $100 Gold which we are also selling this evening, this is likely a once in a lifetime chance to acquire this design-type. After the hammer falls this evening, no collector will have the opportunity to own an 1891 $1000 Treasury Note until tonight's successful bidder parts with this treasure.

DIY Golf Towels

Get creative this Father's day with a DIY craft from Baby Lock. Make that special guy in your life his very own golf towels. He loves the sport so now he can think of you while playing the sport. This is a beginner project that uses Baby Lock supplies.
- Baby Lock Ellageo (BLL), Esante (BLN), or Ellure (BLR)
- Hand towel
- 1 package grommets with setting tool
- 1 curtain hook 40 wt. embroidery thread in assorted colors
- Dissolve-Away Mesh (BLS500)
- Aqua Melt Topping (BLS400) Machine embroidery spray adhesive
- Fabric marker
- Set up the machine with the embroidery unit attached, 40 wt. embroidery thread in the needle.
- Use a fabric marker to mark the location for the embroidery on the towel.
- Hoop the stabilizer in the large embroidery hoop. Lightly spray the stabilizer with the machine embroidery spray adhesive.
- Using the inside bottom edge of the hoop for placement, align the lower edge of the towel along the edge of the hoop, sticking it to the stabilizer.
- Lightly mist a piece of Aqua Melt Topping and place it on top of the area of the towel where the design will be embroidered.
- Select the golf design from the exclusives section of the machine's built-in designs.
- Use the arrow keys to move the design up or down.
- Embroider the design using the suggested colors or your own color preference.
- Remove the towel from the hoop. Remove excess stabilizer and markings.
- To attach the grommet, mark the location at the top corner opposite the embroidery design. A grommet has two sides, a larger side with a shank and a smaller flat piece.
- Use the tip of your scissors to cut a small hole large enough for the center shank to fit through. Place the shank through from the right side of the fabric.
- Turn the item over onto a hard surface.
- Note: Do not do this on a surface that easily damaged as you will be hammering the grommet together.
- Place the flat side of the grommet over the shank, position the setting tool according to the manufacturer's directions, and then hit it firmly with a hammer.
- Hook the curtain hook through the grommet and attach to your golf bag.

Editors Notes
Having worked and studied as chef for 10 years in some of London's most reknowned kitchens; The Dorchester, Le Caprice and the Ivy, Ashley decided to have a radical career change. Using the same attention to detail and creativity he had applied to creating fine food, Ashley combined the finest semi-precious stones and metals in beautiful designs.
Fuelled by the energy of a new path, his was inspired by the passion of Native American cultures, and set off on a long journey to South and Central America to learn more about their art. He went on to study Jewellery and Silversmithing at the Sir John Cass London Met University for three years.
Techniques used include hand texturing, beading, engraving and oxidising to create a deliberate aged look. With the addition of vibrant colour through the use of semi precious stones, collections have a feel of individuality and a signature that sits firmly 'Between two Worlds. Ashley's philosophy of 'Urban Tribes' fuses traditional tribal and ancient art with modern pop culture and high fashion.
Azuni's latest collections: Athena, Luna and Cleopatra, are inspired by the ancient treasure troves of Greek and Egyptian antiquity. Semi precious beads have been married with hand beaten discs and finished with 24 carat gold plating, to create a bold modern Mediterranean look.

On Nate Silver….
I wasn't planning to write about Nate Silver, but I keep reading articles about him and being asked about him. As this election has started to wind down, it's strange how much significance his opinion seems to have taken on. I say it's strange because Nate Silver is certainly a smart guy who did a good job of calling the 2008 election, but there are a lot of smart guys who do a good job of calling elections.
I don't know why anyone would consider Nate Silver to be more likely to call ths election correctly than say Sean Trende, Jay Cost, Larry Sabato, Michael Barone, Charlie Cook, Stuart Rothenberg or Scott Rasmussen. Once you get beyond that group of professional statistics junkies, there's probably another group of 30-40 bloggers, commentators, talk show hosts and columnists (along with many, many more behind-the-scenes pollsters and political operatives) who understand polling and elections well enough to conceivably outperform any of those guys in any given election.
That's because national elections are massive undertakings with a lot of variables and often, there are minimal numbers of data points to work with, many of which tend to be unreliable. Under those circumstances, there is not any "master formula" that can be devised to reliably determine probabilities the way some people, including Nate Silver, were able to do with baseball. In baseball, there are an almost infinite number of clearly definable data points to work with. When it comes to America's pastime, you may potentially be able to sift through decades' worth of full seasons to create a model — while in politics, you may have to try to piece together what's going on in a state like Michigan based on three recent polls done by 5th rate pollsters who do mediocre work.
With that in mind, you may say, "Well then, how can Nate Silver say with any sort of certainty that there's a 77.4% chance that Obama will win the election?"
The honest answer is that he can't.
Putting a number out like that with the incredibly limited amount of data we have to work with is nothing more than a gimmick. From Silver's perspective, it may be a useful gimmick for the moment because it's helping to set him apart from his peers, but unless he's being fed internal polls by campaigns, he doesn't special knowledge that would enable him to call this election with a level of certainly beyond that of the other people listed above.
Just read this excerpt from his latest post and you'll see what I mean.
There have been other years like 1992 in which the national polls did a bit better. But on average since that year, the state polls have had a bias of 1.1 percentage points – half as much as the national polls, which have had a 2.1-point bias instead.
We're approaching the point where Mr. Romney may need the state polls to be systematically biased against him in order to win the Electoral College. And that certainly could turn out to be the case: if Mr. Romney wins the popular vote by more than about two percentage points, for example, he'll be very likely to cobble together a winning electoral map, somehow and some way. (And he'll be a virtual lock if the results are in line with Mr. Romney's best national polls, like the Gallup survey, which put him four or five points ahead.)
But the historical evidence weighs in slightly more heavily on behalf of the state polls, in my view, when they seem to contradict the national ones. If the state polls are right, than Mr. Obama is not just the favorite in the Electoral College but probably also in the popular vote.
Tuesday's Polls
Mr. Obama made gains in the FiveThirtyEight forecast on Tuesday, with his chances of winning the Electoral College increasing to 77.4 percent.
That's not an explanation of a master system, that's someone noting, like most everyone else in the know, that the polling numbers aren't matching up as they should and like everyone else, Silver is taking a guess as to why that's the case. Sean Trende did the same thing yesterday. So did I.
In the end, maybe Nate Silver will turn out to be right, maybe Sean Trende will, or maybe I will. The truth is that all of us are waiting for Tuesday to see whose theory turns out to be validated and the one thing I can absolutely assure you of, is that nobody can tell you in any meaningful sense that he's 77.4% certain that he's right.

MEDVEDEV: I think that Mr. Obama as the President of the United States of America, he's pursuing the interests of the United States. And me as President of the Russian Federation, I'm trying to defend our interests. The point is that we don't have such huge plans about creation of missile defense systems like in America. But we do understand ourselves that if you build up or escalate the missile defense means to certain levels, they will be able to break the parity. Because what's the basis of today's agreement is the strategic offensive arms. It's based on that, the parties by compromising, by consulting with experts, came to the conclusion that there is a certain parity between us. The parity of certain delivery means and certain warheads, so we are lowering it down, the level of delivery systems and warheads. And we're setting the limit, which is much lower than in the 1991 agreement. But if the fixed parity is being preserved, which is 700 I believe, and 800 undeveloped and developed and 750 heads and the other party radically multiplies the number and power of its missile defense system, obviously that missile defense system is indeed becoming a part of the strategic offensive nuclear forces. Because it's capable of blocking the action of the other side. So an imbalance occurs, and this would be certainly the reason to have a review of that agreement. There is something, and I would like to remind you, I believe you have also a judicial background in your education, there is a famous latin proverb: clausula rebus sixtantus, the agreement is being considered in effect as long as the circumstances in which it was born remain. If they change, that would be the reason for a review of the agreement. That's for any agreement. Such circumstances in this case are related to the development of the anti missile defense system.
STEPHANOPOULOS: You've now met with President Obama many times. At least 15 meetings and phone calls.
MEDVEDEV: Sixteen times.
STEPHANOPOULOS: Sixteen. Okay, I knew it was 15. I wasn't sure about the 16. What do you make of Barack Obama the man?
MEDVEDEV: He's very comfortable partner, it's very interesting to be with him. The most important thing that distinguishes him from many other people – I won't name anyone by name – he's a thinker, he thinks when he speaks. Which is already pretty good.
STEPHANOPOULOS: You had somebody in your mind, I think. (LAUGHS)
MEDVEDEV: Obviously I do have someone on my mind. I don't want to offend anyone. He's eager to listen to his partner, which is a pretty good quality for a politician. Because any politician is to a certain degree a mentor. They preach something. And the ability to listen to their partner is very important for the politician. And he is pretty deeply emerged in the subject, so he has a good knowledge of what he's talking about. There was no instance in our meetings with Mr. Obama where he wasn't well prepared for the questions. This is very good. And after all, he's simply a very pleasant man with whom it's a pleasure to deal with.

What should I know about traveling during pregnancy?
DEAR DOCTOR K: My job requires a lot of travel, and I recently became pregnant with my first child. What do I need to know about traveling safely during pregnancy?
DEAR READER: Being pregnant doesn't mean you have to stay at home for nine months. There are exceptions; particularly in the last three months, some women develop complications of pregnancy that require them to be resting. But for most women, travel poses no threat to the mother or child. But travel by car, train or airplane can be less comfortable when you're pregnant, so you should take a few precautions to travel comfortably and safely.

Confusing and daunting and beautiful, all at the same time
There is no sentence, no word of the manuscript that is frivolous, though some may seem that way at the beginning. each word plays a part. Each phrase sets up future events. Well, maybe not later in the book, but in the first five or six chapters, it's all relevant. Even the stuff hat seems like character building.
The problem is that there are chapters that jump around, and the first chapter is one of them. Someone more concerned with selling might remedy that situation, but this is the chronology I wish to divulge the story in. That puts me in a pickle. if you're in this predicament, my suggestion is, don't worry about it. If you're a good enough writer, a 5000 word opening chapter will set the mood, and that's all that counts. The two or three relative facts you'll eventually reinforce along the way are irrelevant at this point anyway, so don't worry that someone will forget the nickname of your MC's friend.

Iuliacum (Jülich)Q1564137
The town, called Jülich today, was situated east of the crossing of a small river, the Rur (which is not to be confused with the Ruhr), and there must have been a bridge. A tile from Sixth legion Victrix proves that soldiers guarded the river crossing. The inscription can be dated after the arrival of this unit to suppress the Batavian revolt (in 70) and before 121, when it was transferred to Britain.Iuliacum is mentioned on the Peutinger map, which means that it was a settlement of some significance in the fourth century. This is confirmed by the archaeological record, which shows that at the beginning of the fourth century, Iuliacum was fortified with a mighty, fourteen-sided wall. According to the Roman historian Ammianus Marcellinus.note[Ammianus Marcellinus, Roman History 17.2.1.] the castle was still in use in 357, when the area was plundered by a large group of Frankish cavalry. The fort may have been used for an additional half century.
Among the archaeological finds from ancient Iuliacum is a fine statue of Jupiter, seated on his throne, made of sandstone. Stylistically, it can be dated to the first quarter of the third century. Once, it must have graced a column in the court of a villa.

Statement of Task (Part II): Identify potential research approaches, methodologies, and study designs that could inform this question, including an assessment of the potential strengths and limitations of each approach, methodology, and design, as well as the financial and ethical feasibility of doing them.
Summary of Methodological Issues
The committee's findings and conclusions about research approaches are presented in Chapter 6. The committee parsed the phrase "this question" in Part 2 of the statement of task into four broad research questions in Box 7-1.
The committee then discussed general research approaches with the potential to answer these questions: ongoing research with data from existing data systems, research with enhanced data from existing data systems, prospective observational studies, and randomized controlled trials.

DH and I aren't sure how to honor our daughter's godparents during the baby naming. We chose a Jewish couple so we could theoretically do a prayer or blessing of some sort. Does anyone have stories/ideas?
Comments (9)
I see no one responded. I dont have much to add, except that in my experience, Godparents aren't that common amongst Jewish families...so not sure how many people will have stories to share. There certainly is not a set precedent so you can probably just do whatever you are comfortable with!
(2 losses 3/09, 10/09)
Love my bun and my two minibuns!
ITA with aquacita. In my experience (and I live in Israel), godparents are not a Jewish custom. I could be wrong though. I just have never heard of anyone here appointing a set of Godparents. The Sandak at a boy's bris is the closest thing to it. The Sandak is supposed to be available for a boys Jewish education. I think.
Huh. My family is not Jewish but DH's family is Orthodox (Polish American), and he has godparents. I'm surprised that more Jewish people don't have this tradition. Anyone else?
My sister and I both have godparents. Obviously neither of us has a bris so I don't know how/when they were appointed. I'm guessing my parents just asked them if they wanted the honour/responsibility, and they said yes. DH and I haven't given DS any godparents yet, although I'd like to.

Ask them to hold the prayer shawl in the air over you (chuppah) and your baby with the Rabbi gives the Priestly Blessing. THAT is pretty special!
She gave me life and milk from her breasts, and I gave her a lanyard. --Billy Collins "The Lanyard"
I know at a bris the kvatters (the couple who brings the baby into the room) are considered the "godparents" and the sandek, the man who holds the baby during the actual bris is supposed to be involved in the child's chinuch.
Not sure how that actually holds up practically, though.
So growing up the people who your parent's designated to be your guardians if something happened to them was called the g-d parents. I have never seen it elsewhere though.

I did some asking around about G-dparents in Judaism. G-dparents are of Christian tradition. It is not a Jewish thing. The closest that one comes is kvatteren, in a bris, which comes from the word g-dparent in German.
But there are many traditions which have been adopted by other denominations of Judaism. Or people have just made a personal choice to do this and they happen to be Jewish.

And now my vocals warm
Add a fifth and a sixth now I'm ready to perform
from Lupe Fiasco – Form Follows Function Lyrics on Genius
He's warmed up from those four mis in the last verse, but for good measure he adds two more before he performs.
There could be another meaning to this line. His vocals (words) are warm (hot) now on this the supposed deepest song on his fourth album (the fourth "mi"), a fifth and a six referring to his contract with Atlantic forcing him to put out two more albums after this one. He will then most likely retire from rap but be ready to truly perform because he will then be free from all the contractual warm-ups and he can start the real show doing his own thing full out.

The AFX main shields block UV light, even though their helmets have no internal sunshield. I do really like the sunshield feature on my street helmet that has no peak though, and I would hope that mfrs start using clearly-labeled UV-blocking materials for these.
You wouldn't wear sunglasses without a UV rating, would you?
The flip-down feature on the Bilt seemed nicer than the one on my Vega, BTW. The padding and appearance of the Bilt seems good too. I'm also happy to see that Bilt decided to offer a helmet in white.
Polycarbonate typically blocks out 98% of UV anyway, which typically all face shields are made of. If they were to try to get away with acrylic (not as impact resistant), it'd still block UV light.

In the recent America's Cup races, the boats were frequently sailing at more than twice the wind speed. For instance, in the final race the wind speed was given as about 20 knots, while the boats were travelling at well above 40 knots. How is this possible?
• A sailing boat is not a mere wind-blown object, like a leaf or hot-air balloon. The sail is cut so that it assumes a shape similar to an aircraft's wing. The wind travels faster along the convex side, creating lift. It is fastest with the wind blowing across the boat's side. But this force also generates an opposite reaction, which acts as drag on the boat's keel – the fin-shaped part extending down into the water from the hull that provides stability.
In addition, as a boat sails, its own speed adds to the wind's speed. This is similar to running in ...

Jim Cramer Says CAT Is A BUY
Caterpillar [CAT 84.95 1.29 (+1.54%) ]: This heavy machinery maker's stock is a buy at current levels, Cramer said, especially since China is likely to report promising economic data in the next few weeks. http://www.cnbc.com/id/49766812
Sentiment: Strong Buy
If Cramer likes it, there's better than an 80% chance it will be down in the ensuing month or so (as it was herein). I do give him credit, however, for at least not plugging a stock that's at or near the top of its game. CAT is a buy at $77. Sell above $93.
Sentiment: Sell
CAT up tomorrow another $2/sh. Where else they gonna get the big machines?
Thanks for the head's up. Great rec. Worked out rather well, don't U think?
Cramer must love it now down another 4 bucks ?
We might have some Panic enter the Market here ?
Absolutely. Everyone here follows Cramer's recs. They're solid gold. Fast Money is a great way 2 get buttph@&k'd. I think, U got sumptin there. Now, get the F outta here and don't cum bak.

Criticism of Rumsfeld is linked closely to views of the war -- those who see the level of casualties as unacceptable, for instance, are 39 points more likely to disapprove of his performance, and 34 points more apt to say he should go.
Rumsfeld gets 60 percent job approval from Republicans, but that's 33 points fewer than their approval of Bush job's performance. And Rumsfeld gets a dismal 32 percent approval rating from independents, and 21 percent from Democrats.
Nearly one-third of Republicans think he should be replaced; that rises to 52 percent of independents, and 68 percent of Democrats. And nearly half of red-state residents, 49 percent, think he should go, as do 57 percent in the blue states.
As was covered during the campaign, political allegiance can vary from poll to poll; in this survey more Americans identify themselves as Democrats (38 percent) than as Republicans (27 percent). However, political attitudes are driven by more than partisan differences alone, particularly apart from vote preferences. Adjusting the results to party ID levels across October (+3 Democrat) produces only minor shifts in overall results -- raising Bush's overall approval rating by three points, his approval on Iraq or terrorism by two, and views that the war in Iraq was worth fighting by two, still the lowest to date.
This ABC News/Washington Post poll was conducted by telephone Dec. 16-19 among a random national sample of 1,004 adults. The results have a three-point error margin. Sampling, data collection and tabulation by TNS of Horsham, Pa.

© Copyright 2015 Clayton News Daily
By Joel firstname.lastname@example.com In the wake of a national crisis involving struggling financial markets, failed banking institutions and shaken consumer confidence, organizations that normally depend on charitable contributions have been among the hardest hit. As the demand for services provided by non-profit organizations in the Southern Crescent has increased, many non-profit, social-service agencies are cutting back, due to a lack of public and private funding. "With people feeling the financial crunch, our donations are really slim," said Dawn Murray, founder of House of Dawn, a Clayton County-based housing assistance and life-skills-training program for homeless, young mothers. "Our private donations have really been down this year. We're down by more than half of what we normally get by this time of the year. Even from businesses we normally get donations from, in-kind donations, we haven't been able to get a lot this year," she said. "We are, right now, having to cut down on some of the services that we give to our residents." Non-essentials once available to House of Dawn participants, such as cable television, have been cut to save money. Rather than buying groceries from the supermarket, the program has been depending heavily on food banks. Mothers of different households have had to schedule their children's' doctors appointments together to cut down on program transportation costs. "In the last year, I haven't seen anybody go under, but everybody is afraid of where it is going to go," said Murray. "I think it's important that we do more fund-raising on our own, because a lot of the grant money that we have depended on is going away." Marjorie Lacy serves as executive director of Haven House. It is a domestic violence shelter in McDonough, which also helps with case management, temporary protective orders, and therapy for abuse victims. She has gone to extreme measures to save money, including replacing all of the office's overhead lights with lamps using compact fluorescent light bulbs. Lacy said the state of the economy has had a "huge impact" on the services Haven House provides. After seeing a $143,000 cut in government funding going into FY2009, the shelter has had to cut some of its staff positions. "We used to have two people around the clock at the shelter, and it allowed us to provide transportation 24 hours a day," said Lacy. "Now, we can only provide transportation from 8 a.m., to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday. Now, our residents have difficulty getting home from work. "It's really important for the women who come in, because they don't usually have a vehicle and we don't have public transportation [in Henry County]," Lacy said. "A lot of times, because these people have low-wage jobs, they give them nightshifts ... the shifts that nobody wants. If we can't get them transportation, then they can't do that." The absence of support comes at a time when Lacy is noticing an increase in the number of people in need of services. She said a rise in local unemployment has contributed to a rise in domestic violence, which in turn, has brought more women to the shelter. "We have a food pantry, and two times over the summer, it was completely bare, which has never happened while I have been here," said Lacy, whose organization has had 501c3 status since 1989. Local food banks also have felt the strain of high demand and little supply. Allyson Lewis, executive director of Feed My People, a faith-based food bank and thrift store in Stockbridge, said the number of people picking up groceries rose from 949 in August to 1,244 in September. "Ninety percent of the people we see are unemployed right now," said Lewis. "Stores are closing and people are not giving. I am paying for more than what we get for free." Lewis said despite the rise in demand, she has kept her shelves stocked with food by bartering overstock items with other food banks and ministries. While the future is uncertain for many non-profits, their organizers are keeping a positive attitude, and clinging to their faith, to get them through the crisis. "I think that right now, the people who are helping people are the people whom God is going to bless," said Lewis. "I believe that as long as we continue to meet the needs of the people, we don't have anything to worry about. God will supernaturally provide." "I'm trying not to be afraid," said Lacy. "You have to keep a positive attitude about it. This is not a time to deny people help."
