Time Machine
By Tzvi Freeman
If you could travel back in time, what could you change?
The world, its past and its present all belong to the Creator,
and it is just as He wills it to be. The only significant change
you could make is in your liability and culpability for the mess-ups
that occurred. And that you can change without a time machine as well --
through sincere remorse and resolve for the future.
From the wisdom of Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory

The Freedom Connection
By Tzvi Freeman
We are limited by the very fact that we have human form.
There is no freedom in following our whim,
only further slavery to our own limited selves.
Freedom can only come by connecting to something infinite and beyond us.
And so Moses was told,
"When you take the people out from Egypt,
you shall all serve G-d on this mountain."
From the wisdom of Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory

Library Budget Vote and Trustee Election Today Wednesday, April 22
from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. at the library
PROPOSED BUDGET 2009-2010
Personnel & Benefits: $5,432,032
Collections & Programs: $656,400
Equipment & Supplies: $193,275
Maintenance & Building: $409,800
Other Expenses: $311,350
Total Proposed Budget: $7,002,857
Dear Neighbors,
For just under $16 — $15.68 to be exact for a home in the East Ramapo School District with a fair market value of $440,000 — our community will have a fully funded library with full weekend hours, robust programming and a growing collection of materials that meet your needs.
On Wednesday, April 22nd, you, the voters of the East Ramapo School District, have the opportunity to vote on the Finkelstein Memorial Library’s 2009-10 budget. As demand for the library’s programs and services increase each year, we work to design the library’s budget to keep pace.
Last year, when voters turned down the 2008-09 budget, the library was forced to operate with the same funding it did the previous year resulting in a net shortfall of $260,000 in needed operating funds. Because the budget failed, the library was forced to cut weekend hours including closing the library both Saturday and Sunday from July 5th through August 31st,
limit the number of items you could check out at one time,
cancel Sunday afternoon programming for the entire summer, and
curtail purchases of new books and bestsellers.
In April, you’ll have the opportunity to vote on the library’s proposed $7 million budget. It will reverse the cuts made last year and provide the library with the resources it needs to continue to provide you with the programs and services you have come to expect for you and your family. We’ve kept the cost to you down — the average household in the school district will only see an increase of $15.68.
If the budget passes, among the things the library will be able to do are:
restore summer weekend hours
raise the check out limit
increase computer access
restore seven-day bestseller lending
maintain full security coverage
meet contractual salary increases without cutting jobs or making other reductions,
and avoid new sanctions at other area libraries against Finkelstein cardholders.
In order to prepare for the 2010 census, census employees
will be visiting every house in the area to verify addresses
and locations of every place where people live.
This activity will be going on now through July.
The employees will wear official identification
and carry hand-held computers.
As always if you see any suspicious activity,
vehicles or people in your neighborhood,
please call the Village and/or Ramapo Police immediately.

I've been getting a lot of requests about what happened to the Mobil Station
and what is going to replace it. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get
in touch with the owner (all we have currently is an address in Texas). My
understanding is that for the last several months, bills were not being
paid, so they were gradually shutdown. They lost the lotto machine first,
then the gas, and lastly the convenience store. There have been several
rumors, but at this point I have no direct knowledge of what is going to
happen. I believe that a gas station will eventually reopen at this
location, but that is only speculation right now. If and when we receive
reliable information about what is going to be there, I will send out
another email.

Reciprocal Tolerance
By Tzvi Freeman
At every moment, your Creator must decide,
"Should I put up once again with this little creature’s imperfections and blunders,
or is it time to measure things by the scale?"
Then He looks at the scale you use to measure others.
And with that same measure, He measures you.
From the wisdom of Rabbi Menachem Schneerson, of righteous memory
