African quilts and fabrics
Lakeside Quilting Guild members gathered on June 14 to hear a presentation by guild member and artist Dorothy Burge who specializes in African- and social justice-themed quilt pieces.

You can read more about some of Dorothy's recent work on the following websites:
Quilting for JLWOP
Youth Matters
We will be featuring and selling some of our quilts as well as other handmade items to help support our donations of baby quilts to the Jackson Park and University of Chicago hospitals, our yearly contribution to a scholarship program for the Fiber Arts at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, the donation of group quilts to the Hyde Park Transitional Housing Project and the Art for Health Program at Rush Medical.
This year's Fair will be held June 4 and 5. You can find us just west of Kimbark and north of 57th Street on the curved walkway leading to Bixler Playlot. (Kittycorner from Noodles Etc. and back a couple of booths in if you navigate by landmark instead).
Google map of Illinois quilt shops
Since summer travel season is upon, I did a little noodling around and figured out how to create this Google map of all the Illinois quilt shops that are participating in the Row by Row Experience. Participating shops offer a free custom pattern for a quilt row that is unique to their shop. And while the pattern is free, you often have an option to by kits and embellishments for the shop's featured row. The event is national and runs from June 21 through Sep 6, 2016. To learn more about Row by Row Experience visit their website: http://www.rowbyrowexperience.com/

Storefront Display
Thanks to Cheryl for arranging to display some of our guild quilts at an empty storefront at Lake Park and 55th Street shopping plaza (adjacent to the Treasure Island store).
At the March meeting...
...members of the Lakeside Quilting Guild spent an evening learning about color confidence and a little shopping for fabrics and patterns.
Meeting location change
Please see the information below regarding the location for Tuesday, March 15th
We will gather at the University of Chicago Knapp Center for Biological Discovery (KCBD) building 6:30PM to 9PM instead of the usual Treasure Island which is being used for a polling place.
KCBD is at 900 East 57th Street (57th & Drexel). Come to the NORTH entrance to the building where there is a conference room.
Our Next Group Project
Now we're all going to be strip-masters!
Each member of the Lakeside Quilting Guild is encouraged to create strips for our next group quilt project using Seminole piecing technique. The choice of design is up to you, but we ask that you use red, white and blue as the color way for the quilt. This does not necessarily have to be patriotic in theme; different hues and values will make for a more interesting quilt.
Guidelines for the strips:
Length should be a minimum of 18" up to maximum of 80"
Width will be determined by pattern you choose to construct
Multiple strips are appreciated from members. See our other recent post on Seminole piecing for a basic instruction sheet and for a list of books on Seminole piecing for inspiration.
All strips due by August 9, 2016.
Our February meeting (Tue, Feb 9, 6:30-9 pm at Treasure Island lower level Cellar Room) will feature a workshop on the technique of Seminole strip piecing. We will use this technique for our next group quilt. For this session, you will need to bring a few supplies -- see the list below.
There are a few books available on Seminole piecing - if you would like to read more, find these in your local library or bookstore.
Simply Seminole : Techniques & Designs in Quilt Making_ by Dorothy Hanisko
Basic Seminole Patchwork_ by Cheryl Greider Bradkin
Complete Book of Seminole Patchwork_ by Beverly Rush
****If you can bring refreshments this month, please contact Wandah****
Please prepare two sets of strips - each 18"-24" long. Choose any colors for each set. If you want to use your strip towards the group quilt - the color way is red, white and blue. We can also trade our strips with each other to make different combinations!
Set 1 - sew together
- 2" strip color A
- 2" strip color B
- 2" strip color C
Set 2 - sew together
- 2" strip color A
- 1" strip color B
- 1" strip color C
- 2" strip color A
We will cut these strips in various ways and construct the Seminole patterns in our session. You'll get to see the different variations that can be achieved.
Please bring your strips, scissors, rotary cutter, quilting rulers. A few of us can bring machines and irons. Needles and thread for basting in case we run out of time at the machines.
We will have samples of blocks and quilts using this technique, feel free to bring your own to share.
Call or email Camille or Cheryl with any questions.

The Spy Shots 2016 Skoda Superb Release Date and Price
2016 Skoda Superb has not been seen in the market for about 8 years and at this time, there is a big issue that the company has prepared the new and the third generation of this model. It is interesting to know that the company is planning for the first hybrid plug-in variant that is from the latest model of VW Passat. 2016 Superb should be available soon because the company has spent for 8 years to discontinue this model.
2016 Skoda Superb Changes
2016 Skoda Superb as the third generation will be featured by the latest technology but the design is completely new. It does not mean that the company will remove all the design language from the current model because the company will make it recognizable. The design is taken from the Vision C Concept that has been introduced for this year in Motor Show, Geneva. It is coming up with modern touch. It is better to not expect any opening for this dual sedan or even hatchback tailgate because it would not be presented since it is on a high costs. With MQB platform, the car will offer longer and wider dimension so that people could sit inside this car more comfort. Well, the interior is still unknown and it is featured by latest technology. The interior has better quality materials that will make the car have a big competition with VW Passat CC.
2016 Skoda Superb Engine
This new version will be the first variant to go with hybrid plug-in system and it is supported by TSI turbo gasoline 1.4 liter to generate 154bhp and it is combined to electric motor to expose for about 107bhp. The 2016 Skoda Superb will go for about 31 miles or 50km and the emission of CO2 should be for around 50g/km.
2016 Skoda Superb Release Date and Price
There is a big rumor that the company will launch the car in the beginning of 2016 if everything runs well as their plan. Well, it means that the car should come in January. Speaking about the price tag, it would be hard because the car is still under the development stage. Moreover, the company gives no announcement at all officially because it is too early for them to count the cost of production. That is why the car will be slightly higher than the previous model but surely will not make the fans regret to purchase 2016 Skoda Superb.

Bowler Eloksi Arun was on a roll for Tamil Nadu against Goa in the South Zone girl's under-16 inter-state league. Her feat has sent the social media abuzz.
In the match held on Sunday, Tamil Nadu's Eloksi Arun took six wickets, giving just 13 runs. Her six-wicket haul enabled Tamil Nadu thrash Goa by eight wickets in the South Zone match held at Sir Vizzy Stadium in Vizianagaram, Andhra Pradesh.
Eloksi's feat might have come in a regional age-group tournament. But the talented girl from Tamil Nadu seems to possess the right credentials and attitude to go far in the game.
Her coaches have continuously praised her talent but more than her ability with the bat and ball, it is her attitude towards the game that should pave a path for her, taking her places. Especially since Indian women cricketers are also highly sought after in leagues abroad.
In another match, Andhra defeated Karnataka by four wickets. Karnataka made 94 for seven in 30 overs and Andhra chased down the target, losing just six wickets.
Brief scores:
Goa 83 for eight in 30 overs (Eloksi Arun six for 13) lost to Tamil Nadu 86 for two in 15.5 overs. Points: Tamil Nadu 4 , Goa 0.
Karnataka 94 for seven in 30 overs (Vrinda Dinesh 53 n.o., G. Sindhuja three for 21) lost to Andhra 95 for six in 21.1 overs.Points: Andhra 4, Karnataka 0.
Kerala 111 for six in 30 overs (Souroopya 28) lost to Hyderabad 112 for two in 24.3 overs (Puja 37). Points: Hyderabad 4, Kerala 0

In today's time, it is very important to cut the expenses and costs of everything. This is for the benefit of you and your pocket. Money is not easy to earn. You need to spend effort and lots of time in order to earn a living. As a result, spending money should be done wisely. Do you need a buyer's agent when buying a home? In buying a home, it is needed to consult an expert agent. This is because agent knows best about real estate transactions and proper way of spending your money.
It is real that everybody can buy a house anytime without consulting anyone. Agent in real estate is the best thing and decision that you must do. You will sign in buying a house. This is a must. With the help of agent, you will be able to own a house without problems. The agent will be the one who will do all of the transactions and needed papers in your property. With an agent, you will just wait and relax.
Advantages of Hiring Agent When Buying a Home
Hiring an agent is advantageous if you are going to buy a home. You can assure that agent is observing standard and ethical codes. This is the main advantage of agents. They are surely making and dealing transactions honestly. The ethical code is followed. This states the obligation of agent to put the interest of clients on top of priority. The full disclosure of property is prepared by the agent.
Real estate agent is expert when it comes in pricing. You are safe to purchase a home with right amount. Agent will guide you if the amount is applicable to the property that you are going to purchase. Because of many experiences in the real estate industry, an agent can set price of the home or property. An agent will tell you if the house is underpriced or overpriced. As an ordinary citizen, you might not be aware of that.
Agent of real estate knows how to deal in the industry. When your in Charleston SC, the place to find a great buyers agent is Premier One – Real Estate for Everyone. Find Charleston Real Estate Here. It is true that negotiating is not easy. It is also a tricky business. Buying a home needs contract and it is not easy to handle it. This is part of the job of an agent to deal with contracts. Also, agent is knowledgeable everything about the conditions to be applied and used.
One of the characteristics of agents is being loyal. Agents do not lie. This means that the agent will do the best for the interest of the clients. Own interest of the agent is disregarded. Individual sale is not important for every agent.
Do you need a buyer's agent when buying a home? Yes. You might think that buying a home is an easy task. There are many things to consider before you have the property. There are also many questions that you might encounter. Property purchasing requires long process. It does not happen instantly. So, when you start to encounter difficult situation, it is the time to ask help form professional real estate negotiator or agent.

Installing 2.1.x (Repository Release) on RHEL 6.2
1 Attachment(s)
I am installing OpenFOAM-2.1.x (Repository Release) in the following directory:
Following insructions per the OpenFOAM website:
First, I make sure that I obtain the repository:
yum install git
cd /opt/OpenFOAM
sudo yum groupinstall 'Development Tools'
export FOAM_INST_DIR=/data/app/OpenFOAM
cd $WM_PROJECT_DIR/bin
Set the number of processors for wmakeScheduler:
export WM_NCOMPPROCS=10
Run ./Allwmake
cd ..
I truncated the log but included the last few lines that pertain to the exit status. Please let me know if I can clean up this error.log in a way that is easier for someone to debug. (I'd like to be able to help those that are able/willing to help me in whatever way I can.)
Unfortunately, this is only as far as I have been able to get. (You may see how far through the process I am by referring to the aforementioned link to OpenFOAM's instructional website)
I am skeptical of the following:
1. whether I have suitable environment variables;
2. whether I have all requisite packages to build on RHEL 6.2
Thank you very much for any help or insight that you are able to offer.
Hi Shaun,
But OK, moving onward, assuming you're an experienced Linux user.
export FOAM_INST_DIR=/opt/OpenFOAM
module load openmpi-x86_64
By the way: yes, the Fedora package list you used should be a good reference for RHEL as well.
The errors shown in the attached file indicate that Open-MPI was nowhere to be seen, possibly due to the missing previous module load command.
As for logging and reporting the errors, I usually suggest the following instructions:
Last but not least: when using RHEL or CentOS or SL, I usually suggest CentFOAM: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawik...itle=Main_Page
Best regards,
Hey Bruno, great post!
1. CentFOAM was my fallback option. But I am determined to learn more about Linux. Therefore I am purposefully putting myself through this - no pain, no gain. :cool:
2a. I would actually prefer that each user have their own compilation of OpenFOAM so that when it comes time to modify the source, other users will not be affected by the changes made. (Does it matter that the system only allots ~3GB per user for their home directory?)
2b. Is there a way to reach the configuration mentioned above by this method? (My goal isn't to just get the software installed as much as it is to learn how Linux ticks.)
3a. I did NOT know that about Open-MPI. So I have installed the system version as opposed to the individual user version? Would one be required to load both in the same way? I'm terribly intrigued about environments, libraries, etc. -- Any resources you can offer would be quickly and thoroughly torn into. (Grade-A n00b here!)
3b. Can you please explain what this line is commanding?
[ -f foamDotFile ] && . foamDotFile WM_MPLIB=SYSTEMOPENMPI
4. By the way, what tipped you off that OpenMPI was not loaded?
5. All of my tars had been compressing to a minimum of 150 KB (regardless of uncompressed size)... and I believe the maximum attachable file size is 97.7 KB. Any hints?
I will attempt again, as you have suggested.
Also, I just wanted to say how great it is to communicate with people who know their way around Linux. I am super eager to learn. :D
Thanks again,
Hi Shaun,
Usually the principle for a system wide installation is simple:
Best regards,
What you have stated above sounds like the procedure for installing OpenFOAM as a local user utilizing fewer root privileges using the $HOME directory path, followed by the creation of a "back up" or "reference" installation to be controlled (and distributed to others) by the system admin.
After the initial installation in the user's home directory, the root must COPY, (leaving the original in its place), the installation to the /opt/OpenFOAM directory and modify the bashrc file as well privileges.
At this point, it seems that there will be two installations on the system. (1) in the local user's directory, and (2) in the system's /opt/OpenFOAM directory.
Would one then be able to take the installation located in /opt/OpenFOAM and copy it to other users' directories?
Following that logic, would the installation located in /opt/OpenFOAM then act as a "back-up" installation while the others are in full user control?
If this is right, then "Hurray!" - that's what I'm looking for. If not, thank you for your patience and let me know if I need to just RTFM :o :D
Hi Shaun,
The OpenFOAM user guide at least gives the idea that one should not modify the core code of OpenFOAM. Each user should always work on a copy of the tutorials, as well as building custom applications for themselves only. Example: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Ho...ure_to_icoFoam
I had assumed from the "/opt/OpenFOAM" reference that you were already familiar with the deb/rpm installations of OpenFOAM that exist for Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE.
As for installing other software to be shared with all users, it depends on the type of installation: if it's just a matter of installing, then you can do it directly as root. If you need to build code, do it in a safe place one or twice, to see what it really does... I know I wrote a longer description about this the other day... here we go: http://www.cfd-online.com/Forums/ope...tml#post360406 post #9
Best regards,
module load openmpi-x86_64
But I definitely have tried "sudo yum install openmpi", etc., on multiple occassions.
Any thoughts? :confused:
Hi Shaun,
This weekend perhaps I can checkout how this works, but for now I'd suggest that you check the manual for "module load":
man module
Best regards,
Ok, I will be sure to check this out.
While troubleshooting the missing soft links I discovered other issues with my system.
Seeing as there is no ubiquitously common knowledge that would help deduce what is causing the errors that I am experiencing, I want to thank everyone who has contributed thus far and take some time for personal study (and a possible system restore :eek:).
You guys are great. Thank you for your selfless service to others in the CFD and FOSS communities. I hope to one day do the same. :D

A Mucus Producing Cough That Doesn't Go Away!
Patient : Hello! My 15 year-old sister has had a really bad cough for over a month (I'd even go as far as to say two months) that frequently produces mucus. Her doctor has prescribed her, on two occasions, with anti-biotics that she takes twice a day for about 10 days or so. But each time the cough never goes away; in fact, it improves while she's taking it then comes back with a vengeance once she done with her dosage. She's had x-rays and supposedly they come back negative, but why hasn't this cough gone away? I'm rather concerned and worry about her being sick for so long. Her doctor suggests a humidifier but I really wonder how much that can help. I think this may have began as a normal cold because she had other symptoms, stuffy nose, even a fever very briefly. Please help. Thanks!
Symptoms: Coughing, Mucus

Jennifer Fulwiler is a writer and speaker who converted to Catholicism after a life of atheism. She's a contributor to the books The Church and New Media and Atheist to Catholic: 11 Stories of Conversion, and is writing a book based on her personal blog, ConversionDiary.com. She and her husband live in Austin, TX with their five young children, and were featured in the nationally televised reality show Minor Revisions. You can follow her on Twitter at @conversiondiary.
This morning I'm doing something I never dreamed that I would do: I'm going to see a therapist.
All my life, I've placed myself firmly in the category of Not the Kind of Person Who Goes to Therapy. First of all, I was vaguely suspicious of it as a general concept. I'd heard horror stories from friends who went to therapists who convinced them they had problems they didn't have, presumably to keep the high monthly fees rolling in. On top of that, I simply didn't see how talking to a professional counselor would help anything. I've always had a good network of friends and family members whom I could count on during difficult times, and I would turn to them if there was anything I needed to get off my chest. My conversion to Catholicism in my late 20s pretty much sealed my opinion on this issue: Now that I had prayer, the sacraments, and a wise spiritual director, what use could I possibly have for secular psychology?
What I was missing, that I have only recently come to understand, is that sometimes traumatic experiences can impact us in a way that goes beyond the purely emotional realm, and is closer to being a physical malady than a purely spiritual one. For example, in the book Getting Past Your Past, author Francine Shapiro, Ph.D., points out that the memory control center of the brain, the hippocampus, can actually shrink in people who have Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Shapiro developed a technique in which therapy clients can use eye movement techniques combined with guided imagery, called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), to help rebuild this area of their brains. She writes:
Happily, as brain scans have now shown, it is possible for the hippocampus to regrow. Although there has been limited research in this area, one study recently showed that 8 to 12 sessions of EMDR memory processing for people with PTSD were associated with an average 6% increase in the volume of the hippocampus. These effects were maintained one year later.
When I was considering therapy for myself in the aftermath of recent traumatic events, I spoke with Licensed Professional Counselor Jennifer Madere to gain a better understanding of how this all works within the larger context of the spiritual life. I found Ms. Madere through CatholicTherapists.com, and shared my concerns about therapy being misused as a replacement for prayer and trust in God. She offered a great explanation, one that really resonated with my own experience, in which she analogized it to stomach indigestion: If you had a stomach ailment in which your digestive system were unable to digest a certain food, treating the physical cause would go hand-in-hand with praying about it. Similarly, sometimes we have traumatic experiences that our brains are unable to "digest," and certain therapy techniques can help break down those memories and allow our brains to incorporate them in a healthy way.
This is something that Dr. Shapiro talks about in her book as well. She gives the example of having an argument with your coworker. Under normal circumstances, you might feel stress or anger in the moment, but after a little time your mind takes what can be learned from the situation, discards the rest, and stores it as a normal memory -- i.e., it has been processed. But sometimes an experience impacts us so profoundly that it overwhelms our brains' normal abilities, and the memory is stored in a raw, unprocessed form. Shapiro writes:
Sadly, disturbing experiences, whether major traumas or other kinds of upsetting events, can overwhelm the system. When that happens, the intense emotional and physical disturbance caused by the situation prevents the information processing system from making the internal connections needed to take it to a resolution. Instead, the memory of the situation becomes stored in the brain as you experienced it. What you saw and felt, the image, the emotions, the physical sensations and the thoughts become encoded in memory in their original, unprocessed form. So, whenever you see the coworker you argued with, rather than being able to have a calm chat, the anger or fear comes flooding back.
I have been working on this "processing" of traumatic memories in therapy sessions, and have found that not only is this therapy not detracting from my spiritual life, but it is enhancing it. When we offer up the difficult moments of our lives to God, we can find peace and healing -- but first we have to be able to offer them up. What I found was that, before I began seeing a counselor, I was not allowing God to be part of these moments at all. Whenever I tried to access those memories in prayer, I would become so overwhelmed and upset that I would stop praying. Even though the events were recent, I was already falling into a pattern of shoving them down into my subconscious, trying to pretend they never happened at all -- and you can't offer something to God that you don't admit exists.
It's important to note that there are a wide variety of therapy techniques, and not all of them involve bringing up details of traumatic events (Dawn Eden makes some important points about that here as it relates to survivors of childhood sexual abuse). I happen to be doing a therapy that does involve visualizing traumatic memories in a safe way, but that might not be the best method for everyone. The point is that sometimes therapy techniques, even secular ones, can be an asset to a strong spiritual life.
If you're having difficulty finding healing in any area, I strongly recommend at least exploring the possibility of seeing a licensed counselor. Before I started therapy, I had slammed the door on those troubling memories. They festered in darkness, where nobody was allowed to access them -- not me, not even God. For me, the process of therapy has been the process of cracking that door open, little by little. It may take a while, but it has begun to open, and finally those bad moments can be bathed in the healing light of Christ.

I am a Vietnam War combat veteran who had a very difficult time emotionally and spiritually about six months into my tour as a medic. A cradle Catholic I had contemplated the priesthood before leaving college to enlist in the Army. I suffered from PTSD but at the time no one could figure out what was wrong. I lost my positive thoughts about God, felt abandoned and figured if God and others (including my parents) couldn't help me, then I would just have to grin and bear it. I later became a Marine Officer in a combat arms specialty. I Worked hard and played harder, never realizing I was addicted to adrenaline and chaos. Though all this. I never gave up hope in God, but I pretty much gave up everything resembling Him in my life. To make a long story short I became a therapist. recently I attended a Level I training and through the workshop was able to process some childhood traumas that were similar to my war experience. The results were nothing short of amazing. I got "unstuck" from my negative thinking about God, started to remember and process the situation in a more realistic and relaxed manner. I would recommend EMDR but please go to a reputable therapist trained and supervised in this modality. If it is right for you, I pray your results are as fruitful as mine.

Good for you. I think that everyone can benefit from therapy, whether or not they feel that they have outstanding emotional "issues" that they need to work through. Therapy - with the right therapist- can give us the tools we need to live a more productive and healthy life.
That was a good post. It is something I can relate to. You are brave to be doing that, and brave to write about it too. Sometimes there is so much pressure to show the "perfect" side of ourselves to the world that we forget the imperfect side is so much of what makes us who we are. God bless you!
Jen, I've been thinking about you and praying for you ever since I heard the news about the accident. I hope that therapy helps. I finally decided to go to therapy for some issues I was dealing with. Such a great thing! Especially Catholic therapy!
There is such strong research for the effects of trauma on the brain. I'm glad you found some therapy that's been helpful for you, and appreciate you posting about how it can be a helpful aid to people's wellness along with the spiritual life. And hey, I went to college with Jennifer Madere! She's great.
Someone asked about Stephen Ministry above. I'm in training to be a Stephen Minister and I wouldn't call it a precursor to therapy. I find the program as written to be a little too anti-therapy in my opinion. For instance one of the training vinegettes included someone who in my opinion needed to be evaluated for clincial depression and/or physical problems that can mimic depression AND a Stephen Minster.
I view a Stephen Minister as a "desingated" listener who has some training in how not to say dumb things to those in turmoil. People are often expected to "get over things" so quickly that people may feel they are wearing out their welcome with their friends and family. Or their family is part of the trauma (like with the death of a family member) so they perhaps can't be much help. A Stephen Minister is someone who has taken on that "job" so people feel more comfortable reaching out.
Also, the ability of well meaning people to say AWFUL things to people with out meaning to is huge. A coworker lost her husband in a freak lightening strike about a year ago and the things people say to her are unbelievable. Like trying to find a good side to her husband dying when she mentioned that she is enjoying walking the dogs more, which her husband used to do. I think its enough to make people stop talking. Good Stephen Ministers can be a buffer from that.
Very well thought through, Mrs. Fulwiler, thanks for sharing. The pure intent will surely be blessed.I received help after a tragic accident from the book 21st Century Science and Health and thank God each day for the healing.
Hi Jennifer:
God's love and healing power is all one can need to be healthy. Yes, indeed. The trick is: God spreads its love and power through any mean HE chooses, right? Why to question Him if He gives you a therapist as a way of helping on this? I have been in therapy as well as two of my children, and one of the valuable things I appreciate the most is: the therapist is not involved in my problems, so they help me with an unbiased point of view. So it's basically counting on a specialized friend you can go to "in difficult times".
My only suggestion is to choose a therapist with a point of view the closest to christian as possible. In my personal experience, the "philosophy" behind the therapist's school does makes a difference. After all, God designed us with all of our components and layers, and if some psychology school ignores any of them (e.g. the spiritual "layer") then the "remedy" will be as well incomplete. Fortunately, I can see you found a pool of Catholic resources, but I hope this comment can help others on choosing a therapist. As for me, specifically, the closest to a christian point of view I have found is Logotherapy.
I hope this can be useful.
May God bless you.
Thank you for this Jennifer. and thanks also to the many who have left comments here.
I have been struggling with the idea of going to a counselor/ therapist. Just last week, my conclusion has come to a head. This post is just more confirmation that it's what I need to do.
I've realized that even though I have dealt with my life struggles to the best of my ability, three years (out of the last six) of unemployment, a big break up with the man I thought I could marry, and the loss of my dad last summer have indeed taken a toll. It took realizing that I've gained weight on top of all that to understand the impact.
Going further back, I never got help for dealing with my sister's murder 27 years ago.
Then there's the fact that I've had to grieve the loss of my fertility, knowing I will never have a baby or a family as I enter my 40s without a husband. You know, it's a lot to deal with. Saying goodbye to my fertility was absolutely heart-crushing and has greatly tested my relationship with God.
I have sought spiritual counseling from my priest and that was a total bust.
It's time to get real help - and a Catholic therapist is an absolute MUST.
Thank your for this encouragement.
First, know that you remain in my prayers. You are having a tough time. You are being lifted up by all of us who care for you as our sister in Christ.
Second, thank you for destigmatizing psychological therapy. Those of us who suffer from various mental challenges know how integral a therapist is as a guide toward mental health. Furter, we who know Christ eventually realize that the Lord is there with us, carrying us when we cannot walk on our own. I know he is with me in my sessions and tge work I do between. He weeps with me, raises my spirits and is my advocate when all seems black.
Christ never leaves us orphans. He performs miracles now by inspiring therapists and researchers to aid sufferers. He inspires/nudges us to seek help when our illness tells us the opposite. He alerts the rest of us that someone needs prayer, and for certain special persons like you, He empowers you to give words to your experience and speak for all of us. Thank you for answering His call.

It took me 20 years to break down and finally see a counslor for the death of a parent that passed away suddenly when I was a young child. Back then it was hard to find groups/counslors for children (or that is what my mom says). I also think since I was such an introvert my mom just figured I was "doing okay" but in reality I wasn't.
The hardest part about counseling is that it can't be fixed in a week with antibiotics. It takes months and sometimes years to process the trauma.
My counselor also uses EMDR and it is amazingly effective! I hope more therapists will look into using this amazing treatment.
EMDR is also used very successfully, in a slightly modified format involving hand held "clickers" instead of flashing lights, to help children with attachment difficulties, PTSD and other problems stemming from adoption… it has worked miracles for our family.
It's good to see that so many people have been helped with EMDR therapy. The book Jennifer mentioned, Getting Past Your Past describes the therapy and gives techniques to do at home. The "wand" mentioned in one of the comments is not part of EMDR. That seems like just something that one therapist is doing and I hope it doesn't turn people away from what the therapy has to offer. EMDR is very focused, efficient and research supported. A study by Kaiser Permanente found that within 12 sessions 100% of those with a single trauma and 77% of those with multiple trauma no longer had PTSD. Research now shows that general life experiences can give even more symptoms of PTSD than major trauma. So many people are suffering who can be helped. It is wonderful that this blog is opening the door of healing for so many.
Jen, I just wanted to add my well wishes to the long list. Thanks be to God that you are getting as much help as you can during this trial. As someone else said, you are already helping so many people by your thoughtful examinations of all you're going through. I am a very recent convert, a former Episcopalian and veteran of several years of cognitive therapy. My Catholic boyfriend (later husband) used to say he thought therapy was a poor substitute for Confession, and I used to scoff at this idea. Now that I've had my first Confession I understand much better what he meant. BUT I believe Catholic therapists could be one of the most powerful forces for good in this world. I will pray for your speedy emotional healing. Thank you for all you've done for me and your other readers.
I've read your blog for a few years now, and I have to say I've been so concerned about you since you witnessed that tragic accident. There are times in life when you really do need a therapist, particularly when traumatic events are involved. I am like you, I don't think we should sit around and naval gaze about whether our parents did this or that right/wrong, or whether the mean girl in 7th grade ruined the trajectory of our lives. But PTSD is real, and while we all benefit from the sacraments, prayer, and a good spiritual director, you sometimes need someone who is trained in treating PTSD specifically.
Can I also be so bold as to recommend a book that helped me in my recovery from PTSD (dealing with being raped so different than what you witnessed)? My priest recommended a book by Fr. Jacques Philippe called "Interior Freedom." Truly, truly has helped. I admire his writing so much that I am reading his book "In the School of the Holy Spirit" in the lead up to Pentacost Sunday.
Am praying for you all.
Blessed be God who heals us in Christ!
If you find therapy to be the answer to your prayers, then by all means, take it. No one is in the position to judge you on that. For myself, I also did EMDR with a therapist for my heart attack that was really traumatizing. I had a hard time with it, but I'm only speaking for myself. I don't think anyone has the right to say "you shouldn't do therapy" based on whether they believe in it or not. I think that God works through therapists as well.
I'm glad that you are going to a Catholic therapist though. (At least I think I read that you are seeing a Catholic one.) My biggest problem with my therapist was, that although she was a really nice lady, she did a lot of new age imagery things on me. Every time we finished the session, she had me lay down and imagine a blue wand (or pink, or yellow. I got to at least choose the color!) floating over me and scanning my body, releasing all the tension from it. Something in me just didn't feel comfortable with that and I began to wonder, if I really believe an imaginary blue wand can heal me, then where does that put God in my life? I eventually quit going and have been doing better.
That was just my own experience though—the talking actually really did help. I got to say a lot that I normally wouldn't say to anyone else.
I have suffered for almost 50 years with the memories of an assault. I am a disabled veteran and since my mother passed my PTSD had become worse. I have been in treatment now since last September, after one failure about two years before that.
I use a Service Dog that will bring me out of an attack.
I would recommend seeking help and not waiting 50 years. God is the good and will guide you to the proper therapy if you listen to HIM and the small quiet voice of the Holy Spirit.
Also make sure that you discuss the end point. My therapist and I discuss this once a month, I am not ready yet but I believe God will tell me when that time comes
Put a time limit (say, maybe, a year) on your therapy experiment. I have been in therapy at several points in my life and never once has it been effective. That's not to say, of course, that all therapy is ineffective. Rather, after a certain time you should assess your progress and also ask your therapist about his/her treatment plan. Any treatment that works should have an end date. Unfortunately, with therapy, sometimes it goes on indefinitely and that is not good for you, the patient.
Thank you for this insightful article.
May God bless you on this journey. I have sought counselling a couple of times in my life and have always found it to be a blessing. Trained, neutral third parties can be great for helping get past psychological road blocks. After finally getting the courage a few years ago to seek help for processing a traumatic event, the EMDR technique my therapist used freed me from the bondage of that event and helped me let it go. It's still in my past. It's still sad. But it no longer controls me or defines me. I hope you find the same kind of peace.
You know who else would agree with you? Fr. Benedict Goeschel. EdD in? Psychology. From Columbia. Yes, he's a psychologist (but only sees religious).
we've been thinking about this a lot lately! I realized that God wants you to take care of your mental and emotional health just as much as the other parts of your life, and sometimes that involves things I never thought I would benefit from, like self-help books and therapy. As Catholics we should be able to find the good in everything, and that includes psychology/psychiatry. Everyone should know that Catholic Charities offers therapy on a sliding scale cost, so hopefully if you have a branch in your area, your budget shouldn't be an obstacle to getting therapy if you need it. Also, some therapists accept medicaid—I didn't realize that. I was going to a therapist for postpartum depression and getting it paid for by my medicaid, and she told me that I could bring my husband in for marriage counseling too, but she would still bill it under my name to medicaid. It's been so helpful so far!
Great insights, Jennifer. I enjoy your blog so much :) I have been in intensive therapy now (3 days a week) since Oct. of 2010, so I can very much relate to this post. It is very difficult work to honestly face my "skeletons" in the closet, so to speak, week after week. I have gained an enormous amount of self knowledge, insight, and healing. The techniques you describe sound very similar to what my treatment is, yet mine is mostly analytic work. I am reading a fabulous book right now called "After the Tears". It's a book that helps adult children of alcoholics and those who grew up in dysfunctional homes process their past traumatic experiences.
I write a blog titled "Caregiving with Grace" that explores my Catholic faith journey in caring for my mother, who has early dementia, caused by chemical abuse and vascular disease. I write a lot about being in recovery as an adult child of an alcoholic. Feel free to pass it along, if you know anyone who may benefit from reading it :)
God bless and keep up the great work…you are one of my favorite bloggers!
I've written about the importance of these issues in my own book, NEVER GIVE UP (Servant, 2010). Thank you for this fine article, and for your own testimony. Brain disorders caused by traumatic experiences and/or hereditary predispositions are very real. We must not be ashamed to seek out medical and therapeutic treatment from worthwhile resources. The human person is a delicate and profound unity of soul and body, who needs to be healed in a variety of ways.
Jennifer, this post really hits home with me. I too, as a Catholic, was suspicious of psychology and psychiatry in general and seemed to believe that life's problems could all be solved simply by faith, prayer, and the sacraments, when in fact sometimes psychological or psychiatric help is a necessary supplement. This came home to me as I have had to struggle with anxiety and depression recently. At first I didn't want to think of myself as one of "those people" who needs psychological help, but I realized that this was my pride talking, and that rather than weakness it is a sign of strength when somebody can say "I have an emotional disorder, etc. and need help." I also realized that for some people, including myself, psychiatric medication may also be a part of the solution. Therefore I encourage any Catholics - don't be ashamed to seek good help! God gave us natural as well as supernatural resources to live a happy life and He wants us to take advantage of those resources when we need them.
After spending 50+ years of my life stuffing down a childhood/young adulthood which was riddled with maternal alcoholism and verbal abuse, I was blessed to stumble across an EMDR practitioner. My therapist was not Catholic, but the negative childhood experiences I "re-visited" with her in therapy were healed and integrated so successfully into my personality that I am now able to practice my faith and live my life in a whole new and wonderful way. I am able to offer my family and my Lord a healthy and whole person. What an incredible relief to unpack baggage I was carrying that I did not even realize was weighing me down for my entire life. EMDR was not an easy process, but the results are worth it. I would encourage anyone thinking of entering therapy to consider an EMDR practitioner. Thank you, Jennifer, for bravely sharing this with us all.
I feel for all that you have been through recently. Thank you for sharing your trauma in such a public way. I am sure God is using you to help many, many people!!! I am one of them. I have suffered from a very tramatic childhood and different types of abuse. I still have trouble remembering things I would rather forget. But as you share with us what you are able to share, I will try to learn from your experience. No pressure is meant, I just appreciate your openness and honesty in your seeking professional help. Thank you so much for sharing. God Bless you!
A good book to read is titled "Feeling Good - The New Mood Therapy" by David D. Burns M.D. Along with my own therapist, it's helped me understand my life and reactions to it much better.
Last year, I suffered from post partum depression and anxiety. I also, had the same feelings and uncertainty about the psychological assistance through medical/psychiatric/therapy, etc. However, our amazing priest, thankfully acknowledged his own limitations. He clearly stated, God has given us priests the ability to help with the spiritual, but when it comes to the physical, only a doctor can help with this. I also received the analogy, if I were a diabetic, certainly I would recieve the necessary medication to treat my disease. How much more important is it to treat the brain when it is ailing. Medicatio, group and individual therapy, and regular medical visits were all necessary and helpful for treating my situation. Today, I feel healed from the experience and am very thankful for all the medical assistance that I received. Because despite what I first thought, my experience was not simply a spiritual one. I must also mention, though, that regular spiritual direction was also helpful during this time, to address all my spiritual concerns. Anyways, very happy to hear that you have had a similar experience with making positive distinctions between the medical and spiritual world. I often think of Jesus, using the mud to heal the eyes of the blind man. Though he could have chosen to simply perform the miracle, he instead chose to use natural means, maybe as an example to pass to us?
In the past few months my husband and I have each started private counseling and next week we start marriage counseling.
My husband has struggled with OCD and sex addiction for our entire relationship. As a result our marriage has included verbal abuse, physical abuse at times, physical intimidation, and other problems. At this point, I have extreme issues with hurt and anger that would make it almost impossible to move forward with our marriage even if he could get his issues under control. But we want to make this marriage work because we both believe in sacramental marriage and we both love our children completely.
His conversion to Catholicism in recent years has helped some, but faith and prayer alone weren't going to "fix" things. We both need other tools in our bag in addition to prayer and the sacraments (which we frequent). And we need more insight and information than a priest can give in the confessional, especially since he has to forget everything you said as soon as you leave the room.
While I have no idea what the religious views are of any of our therapists, none of them have said or implied anything against our religious views. Initially I would have liked to use Catholic therapists, but to be honest in the short-term we couldn't beat the convenience of having our current office literally five minutes down the road. It makes it easier to insure that we are able to go on a regular basis.
EMDR therapy honors the spiritual connections. In fact, the book Getting Past Your Past describes how a minister used EMDR to help him work on his spiritual development. There are a number of stories describing ways to use it in that manner, along with specific techniques to use at home.
The best book that I have read to help me understand the value of therapy is "Now It All Makes Sense". The author is not Catholic and does not attempt to convey things from a Catholic viewpoint, but more like the analogy that Jennifer Madere made with digesting things properly.
Wow, receiving this in my inbox today was certainly a blessing. I have just done an intake to start counseling and have been overwhelmed and frightened by the prospect of embarking on this journey. I am afraid of the shunning by the therapist, of my faith. I am hoping that this is not the case.
I have many of the same issues as you Jennifer, and am guilty of stuffing down the events that I don't want to deal with.
While I don't have access in my rural area, to a Catholic therapist, I am told that this particular clinician is not hostile to faith.
Good luck to you and many prayers for you as you take on this challenge
I've been to several purely secular therapists over the last 10 years and I didn't receive much help from any of them. The best therapy sessions have been the ones where my therapist and I invited God into the session together.Because only through God can true healing happen. I think the Church could benefit from a stronger Psychological ministry. And this doesn't mean they have to create some sort of bobo healing. There are plenty of trained doctors of Psychology out there who could really utilize this to serve people.
I'm glad that you are going to get help. I once went to a therapist for similar reasons, and he gave me some much-needed and helpful ways and vocabulary to talk about what I was going through. I was lucky. He was really wonderful. But I do share your general concerns about therapists who sneer at the spiritual side of things and who therefore treat the Catholic faith or any religious faith as some sort of ancient, superstitious holdover. So I'm really, really glad that you found a good Catholic therapist. God bless you!
Good for you. I hope this inspires others.
In the context of this discussion, does anyone have experience with the "Stephen" parish ministry that appears to continue to gain popularity as a lay precursor to entering therapy if indicated?
I am so glad you found someone to help you process the trauma you experienced. It took me a couple of tries before I found a good faithful Catholic therapist, but it has made a huge difference in my life.
Several years ago, I went through a couple of EMDR sessions with a trained therapist, and found them both terrifying and healing.
Thanks for writing about this.
You remain in my prayers.
Dear Jennifer…I am so glad you decided to seek therapy to help you process your recent traumatic experiences. It was a wise decision, and may God bless your efforts to seek healing. I really appreciate your candor in sharing your struggles with us. (I also appreciated the reference to the excellent article about Dawn Eden and sexual abuse.) Please keep us posted on how things are going for you! Our prayers are with you…
I remain unconvinced that psychology as a field has anything of its own to offer. People's problems break down into two root causes: biological and spiritual (and in your description of "brain processing" a bit of both). I'm not saying that psychiatrists/psychologists can't help people (nor saying that struggling people shouldn't seek help from them), but when they do help, they are borrowing either from the field of medicine or from spirituality. The EMDR you describe is actually physical therapy.
It's tough to have much confidence in such a field when it fundamentally fails to understand that human nature is a body/soul composite. Spiritual/philosophical writers like de Sales elucidate a very sophisticated breakdown of the faculties of the soul and intellect that make id/ego/superego look like a crayon drawing on a refrigerator.
If you've found a Catholic therapist that can borrow the best of Catholic spirituality and the best of medicine to help you, that's wonderful. By all means, take advantage of it.
Amen. Alleluia. I am so thankful for that for you. It took me over 50 years to acknowledge that I could use some help. God bless you, as I know He does.
In our parish we have an excellent therapist who splits her time among four different parishes. We usually and she recommends it offer people Lozano prayer prior to meeting with her. In some cases this is step is obviously not necessary, but most people enjoy the freedom they recieve, which makes the therapy (if still necessary) much smoother.
Good for you Jen! I hope this will be helpful in coping with the tragedy that you recently witnessed.
Thank you for your wonderful recommendation for getting therapy when you need it. My dh and I sought the advice of a priest many years ago when it seemed divorce was our only option. He led us to a wonderful Catholic (very important detail) therapist who helped us find healthier ways of communicating, dealing with marriage issues and so much more - like praying for each other and with each other.
As you say, we go to doctors for physical aliments so why do we shy away from seeking help for mental ones? Seeking good help is not a sign of weakness or a lack of trust in God as God gives amazing gifts of wisdom, love and mercy to so many trained professionals.
If you are suffering, your marriage is suffering or your children - God is always there but He often uses other people as well and finding help is possible.
Be assured of my prayers as you go into the tough places!
You make a great point. I'd love to see a counselor to deal with some of the past and current events in my life. Maybe one day. Good luck! God bless!

Primary caregiving is the assigning of one caregiver to primarily provide the care for one small group of children. In this system for operating an infant program, the director, the infant teachers, and the parents all understand which staff member has primary responsibility for each child.
Of course, primary caregiving in a center-based program cannot be exclusive. The classroom is staffed by more than one person for a reason and the other staff in that room are responsible for contributing to the care of each child in the room. Because most programs are open for more than 8 hours per day and your staff can't work more than 8 hours per day on a regular basis, and because they need lunch breaks, the children will obviously be in the care of someone else at some point during the day. Or, even if the primary caregiver is in the classroom, but is busy caring for another child, another member of the caregiving team will need to step in to help. The primary caregiver is just that, primary, but not exclusive. This individual will provide the majority of the care for the child and, therefore, the majority of the communication with the parent. This person will also work with other staff members to help them understand the needs of each child in their care when they cannot be with them.
Primary caregiving has a few important benefits; all centered around relationships. The primary relationship is the relationship between the caregiver and the infant. The caregiver, while assisting with other children, spends most of their work days focused on just a few children, really getting to know them; feeding them, diapering them, playing with them, consoling them. The children learn to trust this person to care for them. This relationship allows the child to be more comfortable in the child care environment and allows the caregiver to better respond to, and even anticipate, the needs of each child. Better understanding the child helps the caregiver to develop a stronger relationship with the parent.
Parents, especially parents of infants, can have a difficult time entrusting their beloved child to the care of someone else. If parents know, and have a positive relationship with the individual assigned to be primarily responsible for their children's care, it is much easier to leave their child with that person. The parent can learn to trust that the caregiver has their child's best interest at heart and will keep them apprised of their child's care and development.
Make sure that the Infant Teachers you hire have the appropriate skills, education and experience that they need to be able to be a member of a primary caregiving team. If you don't already have a Job Description for your Infant Teachers (or Infant Teachers' Aides), check ours out at: http://www.daycaretools.com/DaycareProducts.aspx#Personnel

On the way to Vaigai-Dam we stopped to have a tea-break while it was drizzling slightly and my motor-bike-glasses became wet.
Across the street there was a workshop of cupper kettles and in spite of the cloudy weather I was tempted to this shot.
After the rain stopped and we went back on track.

Google Search becoming even more intelligent with the Knowledge Graph, now extends to outside the U.S. all English-speaking countries- "starting today, Knowledge Graph results will appear across every English-speaking country in the world," Google said.
"Knowledge Graph is a database of more than 500 million real-world people, places and things with 3.5 billion attributes and connections among them."
Google says this will also help find the right result more quickly when your search may have different meanings. With Knowledge Graph, Google says they can now give different suggestions of real-world entities in the search box as you type.
Also, with the Knowledge Graph, Google says they can provide more subjective lists. If you click on an item, you can then explore the result more deeply on the web. "For example, now when you search for say [california lighthouses], or [hurricanes in 2008], you will get a list of these things across the top of the page," Google explains.
Starting today, Google opening up a limited trial where you can sign up here to get information from your Gmail right from the search box. If it looks relevant you can then expand the box to read the emails.
Google says, they're working on some even more useful features such as "if you search for [my flights] we will organize flight confirmation emails for any upcoming trips in a beautifully easy-to-read way right on the search results page."
Google has also combined its speech recognition, understanding of language and the Knowledge Graph to make Voice Search better interpret questions and sometimes speak the answers back as full sentences.
This feature is currently available on Android, and will soon come to iPhone or iPad (iOS version 4.2+). All you need to do is "just tap the microphone icon and ask your question," and you'll see your words streamed back to you quickly as you speak. Then Google will show you a list of the latest movies in theaters near you, with schedules and even trailers.
"It works for everything from celebrity factoids to the height of Kilamanjaro and more. When Google can supply a direct answer to your question, you'll get a spoken response too," Google said.
In other Google product news,
Google Scholar launched nearly eight years ago, today received updates. To get article updates relevant to your work, all you need to do is create a public Scholar profile. Article updates will automatically start to appear within a few days.
"We analyze your articles (as identified in your Scholar profile), scan the entire web looking for new articles relevant to your research, and then show you the most relevant articles when you visit Scholar. We determine relevance using a statistical model that incorporates what your work is about, the citation graph between articles, the fact that interests can change over time, and the authors you work with and cite. You don't need to configure updates or enter any queries. We'll notify you about new updates by displaying a preview on the homepage and highlighting a bell icon on search results pages," explains Google.

PM Narendra Modi lauds Indian soldiers' humanitarian efforts
Bhopal: Inaugurating 'Shaurya Smarak,' a war memorial dedicated to Indian soldiers, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday lauded the humanitarian work undertaken by the defence personnel in times of natural or man-made calamities.
Be it the Uttarakhand floods of 2013 or the Kashmir floods of 2014, the Indian Army did a commendable job in saving thousands of lives, Modi said here.
"In Kashmir, our soldiers rescued — and provided humanitarian aid to — thousands of people without giving a thought that these are the same people who throw stones at the Indian forces," he said.
"Sometimes these stones can be fatal. But despite that, our soldiers did not go into who did what to them in the past. They just saved the lives of their fellow countrymen," the Prime Minister said.
'Our army is happiest when we sleep in peace. They have no complaint. But they will never forgive us if we sleep when we should be awake. Unfortunately, we have been found sleeping when we should have been awake," he said.
"The first image of a soldier may be that of a uniformed person with bloodshot eyes, carrying weapons and looking for enemies, but the same soldier has a very humane face too," Modi said.
He said the Indian Army may not be the strongest in the world, but it certainly is on the top on the parameters of humanity, discipline, conduct and behaviour with civilians.
Modi said high morale is the biggest weapon of any army, which comes from the backing of 125 crore Indians. "Our army doesn't talk but displays valour."

CodePlexProject Hosting for Open Source Software
This is my first experience with Graffiti.
I have been asked to make a change to a new client's existing site.
The goal is to list the Past Events in date DESC order, while keeping the Upcoming Events in date ASC order.
The site seems to have been set up (by the original developer) so that Events is a single category, set as date ASC sort order. The Upcoming Events page uses a foreach loop to print out this list, filtering out events with dates that have passed.
The Past Events page uses the SAME foreach loop to print out the SAME list, but this time filtering out events with dates that have not yet passed.
The problem is that then BOTH lists are sorted as date ASC. I want to reverse the order of the Past Events foreach loop so that the event that happened last week appears at the top, and events from 2009 appear at the bottom.
I've been searching and reading through this documentation, and can't find anything.
Here is the foreach loop in question:
#foreach($post in $data.PostsByCategory("events", 9999))
## show expired events

$post.Custom("Event Date")
$post.Body

## show upcoming events (in the upcoming events list the if above is empty and this else has the
)
I appreciate any help...
It's been a while since I've reviewed the GCMS source code, but I don't believe there is a way to do this in the current builds (I could be wrong, in which case the best option may be to upgrade to the latest version).
If however, you don't want to try an upgrade to fix this minor issue, then I see two options: 1) Compile new build (same version that you have currently) and add a sort parameter on the PostsByCategory() function. This would be very easy to do. 2)
Use this extension http://chalkextensions.codeplex.com/ which has functions that will allow you to get a category with sorted posts. If you use the extension you need to make sure it is compiled with the correct version of GCMS otherwise it's going to
blow up on you.
I've been using Graffiti Extensions to do this. It can change the sort order of any PostCollection.
It can also grab all posts from a category without having to use that 9999 trick.
Just reversing the order isn't going to help you actually, since you want to have both lists (upcoming and past events) displayed. You'd have to go through the list twice to do what you want. Also, if you use the PostsByCategory function, it is going to
return posts in the order that they were created, not the custom "Event Date". If your events are created in the order that they take place, this will work fine, otherwise they won't.
Not sure if this is using my
Graffiti Events plugin or not, but if it is, I just updated the code on codeplex for just getting upcoming events or past events (and the ability to get all instead of X). Even if you aren't using that plugin, you can use the code as a baseline to write
your own function(s) to get the events in the order that you want. Based on your custom field and category names, even if it isn't using the plugin right now, you should actually be able to just add it in and use the chalk extensions at the very least, because
the names match what the plugin uses as defaults exactly.
Have you tried using "Query(IDictionary parameters)" There is not too much documentation but it looks like you can select any order you want.

Supervisor Kate Murray and Senior Councilman Anthony Santino have announced that on August 4th the Hempstead Town Board passed a resolution which will provide residents of the Bay Park Library District an opportunity to vote in a special election to choose a host library for library services. The library district is comprised of residents who live in certain areas of Bay Park.
"As the contract with the East Rockaway Public Library, the host library, will expire on December 31, 2015, New York State law requires that a special election be called to approve a new contract and an associated budget with a host library," said Murray. "We are committed to ensuring that residents continue to enjoy all of the educational, cultural and social benefits that go along with having full library services."
The special election will take place on Thursday, September 3, 2015, from 12:00 noon to 9 p.m. Only persons who are registered to vote with the Board of Elections and who live in the Bay Park Library District will be eligible to vote. Registered voters will receive notification by mail with details regarding the vote, including the associated contract budget.
On September 3rd residents of the Bay Park Library District will have an opportunity to consider a four-year contract and budget with the East Rockaway Public Library with a 2016 budget of $214,567.50. That figure will be adjusted during the contract period for cost of living. Special election expenses of approximately $10,000 shall be added to the district's budget.
Residents of the Bay Park Library District should vote at their regular polling station located at the Rhame Avenue School, 100 Rhame Avenue in East Rockaway,
"The approval of a library funding district for 2016 through 2019 will afford residents continuing access to borrowing privileges and all of the other library services and benefits that they have received since the library district was first established in 2000," said Santino.
Absentee ballots are available from the Office of the Town Attorney by contacting Deputy Town Attorney Eugene Ferencik at (516) 812-3202. Any questions about the library referendum may be addressed Councilman Santino's office at (516) 812-3200.

Absol (EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua 96)
Absol (Japanese: アブソル Absol) is a Darkness-type Basic Pokémon card. It is part of the EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua expansion.
Card text
Release information
In Japan, this card was released as both a holographic and non-holographic ADV-P Promotional card at participating 7-Eleven stores as part of the Pokémon Fair campaign, which ran from June 25th, 2003 until stocks lasted. Customers who purchased a bottle of Coca-Cola Vanilla, Sprite Classic, Ambasa Sour White, Fanta Fruit Punch, or Fanta Melon Soda were given one of 21 possible cards.
The parenthetical clause in Feint Attack is redundant, since the attack's main effect already states that Weakness and Resistance does not apply.
Quick Attack is a move in the Pokémon games that Absol can learn. Feint Attack is essentially Faint Attack, which Absol can learn via breeding.

I had posted a reply or response on the animal topic. Someone's pet had died and they asked for stories or memories of their beloved pet. I responded regarding the Pomeranian I loved and lsot. My response has been deleted. Is it Hubpages that deleted it? Or can someone who posts on the forum delete a response?
Hi Pamela-I don't think another Hubber can delete your posts...was this on the 'animal memories' thread? I don't know why HP would delete such a post, either.
Yes, it was. Hubpages allows people lying on top of one another almost naked, but they delete my post about how much I miss my dog? No need for you to respond, Lorlie6. I'm just upset.
Hi Pamela;
Did you see it posted right after you hit 'Submit'? If it was there, then disappeared, it's probably just a temporary glitch. I seriously don't think it's possible for other people to delete your posts at all.
Try posting the same response again..see if it sticks. If not, let HP staff know immediately.
Often I preview a response before I submit it. In fact, I do that so often that I sometimes think I have actually submitted it when in fact I have only previewed it. Could that have happened?
I have posted to the forum thread recently and watched my post disappear. It was a glitch I have seen before on HubPages. I bet, if you go back to the thread, you'll find your post somewhere on the thread.
If not, then it was eaten by the invisible glitch monster who occasionally snacks on posts every now and then.
The staff are the only ones with the power to delete posts of hubbers. No hubber has the ability to delete another hubber's posts.
