Hopeless level.
Waiting for lucky board. Am so bored with this game.
- 6 September 2016 at 13:37
Agreed. All levels in this area have been boring and mostly awaiting lucky boards with no skill needed
- 6 September 2016 at 15:18
not getting anywhere close
- 7 September 2016 at 09:58
this truly is a most boring board
- 7 September 2016 at 10:23
Been on this for 4 days now and not even got close.
Mind you they have run out of ideas now so this would appear to be the way forward.
- 9 September 2016 at 11:31
After 10 days I finally passed this level. I quit looking at the points and just concentrated on the board and making specials. I was so surprised to find I was past 45000. I didn't make one bomb, but lots of squares and stripes to clear board.

So, who ever said," Yippeee, this is my favorite kind of level"? Absolutely no one. Yawn.
- 10 September 2016 at 19:12
Ha, I've done it! So soon after 1958 another useless and boring game. I finally decided to follow the Biblical command: 'If your hand makes you sin, cut it off. Since this game has taken so much of my time and is now not even fun anymore, I came to the decision to cut it off. I removed the app and will go back into the garden to enjoy the fresh air (it's spring in Australia) and do something useful. Goodbye and it was fun sharing with you and getting the help through this blog. Grace from Australia (Down Under).

I'd barely woken from the stupor induced by 1964 when I was confronted with this abomination. 3 colour bombs within my 50 moves and I still only got 36000 points. Most games I'm lucky to get 20000. I don't know what they've done with the scoring, but something is amiss. Ah well, guess I'll have to wait until they deign to let me through....again....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
- 14 September 2016 at 15:28
I totally agree. I'm hoping that posting for luck works because nothing else seems to be working.
- 14 September 2016 at 22:05
OMG! Posting for luck totally works. No boosters and only one star but I'll take it.

After several games of "get so many points in x number of moves" and timed levels.... This game has lost its fun. Think I've had it with candy crush. Taking a break for a few days and see if I can break my addiction.
- 15 September 2016 at 07:55
They have run out of ideas. So don't expect fun games in future.
- 15 September 2016 at 09:42
I agree with Jeanette. I'm "taking a break", like when you're in a relationship and someone says they want to take a break. Meaning that they really want to move on and find someone else. Candy Crush has gotten repetitive, with levels like this that are mind-numbingly boring and almost impossible to pass. The people who have gotten to this level aren't amateurs; they've passed 1964 levels! I'm lucky to get 20,000 on this level, which should be the goal, rather than 45,000. I'm going to leave it alone for a few days, and then maybe I'll find that I'm having fun doing other stuff and don't want to play anymore.

I came on here to say that this level is sooooooooooo boring, there is no challenge to it, and I'm really getting tired of it all. By this point, we all are on to CC's trickery and know that nothing is random. I even once got the exact same board as a youtube video and followed it to the letter to win. Its getting easier to wean myself off of this waste of time.
- 15 September 2016 at 13:03
Awful level and I'm posting for a lot of luck with this one.

Horrible level. Waiting for lucky board.
- 15 September 2016 at 18:30
Cleared all chocolate and still can't pass this level. Boring level. Between levels like this and timed ready to quit.
- 15 September 2016 at 20:00
Used a choc. ball booster to start. It didnt do much but generated 4 more. Used on single candies. That and a few simple stripe matches got me 1 star. Finally!
- 16 September 2016 at 03:03
Started with wrap/stripe booster & reset until they were together. That gives a good start. From there making special candies was fairly easy. Had to use 1 hand switch. NC
- 16 September 2016 at 04:57
Another nominee for most boring level.
- 16 September 2016 at 06:01
I think a lot of die hard fans of CC have quit and found better alternatives as I observe fewer comments with each passing episode.Maybe this column should be re-named as what-is-better-than-CC.Those who quit may please suggest alternatives.King and Co are totally out of ideas to make challenging episodes so they make boring ones to frustrate us. I am taking a break.

- billyrabbit said...
I had hoped to get to 2000 before quitting but this level looks like the end of the road.
- 16 September 2016 at 09:21
Agree with all of above. No boosters and no luck on the PC or on a mobile device. Got close once out of 100 tries.
- 16 September 2016 at 09:58
Chuffing Norah! How dull is this?
- 16 September 2016 at 10:05
Can't even get close. Used boosters but still no where near the points.
- 16 September 2016 at 11:46
candy crush has become a chore, id rather do the dishes....shame
- 16 September 2016 at 12:02
After many tries, I finally managed to clear enough to make a Choc sprinkle and leave it on the board to create a lot of points at the end. Good luck!
- 16 September 2016 at 14:39
Tx! Used your suggestion, but still had to use a hand switch plus 5 extra moves I won on the wheel. I thought this level was a Hard Level. Glad it is over - used oodles of lives.

- Cher said...
This one sure is boring. No scill needed . Think I'll have a sleep as well .
- 16 September 2016 at 18:14
I think this is the end of Candy Crush for me. It just isn't fun when you have to spend days on one level.
- 16 September 2016 at 18:57
Posting for "luck"! ;)
- 17 September 2016 at 03:53
Today is my last day of Candy Crush if I don't get this level. It is not fun and I would rather clean the house.
- 17 September 2016 at 07:13
I am so frustrated!!! Used boosters and extra moves because I was so close. Then the game reshuffled and said "no more moves" . Wasted boosters and twice I used extra moves to only have the game stop! This is their way of getting money and then having the game malfunction.
- 17 September 2016 at 12:51
- CCAddict said...
Agreed ! Most stupid boring waste of time level ever!!!!!Not even getting 30000 !
- 17 September 2016 at 13:34
Not even close after days. I quit!!
- 17 September 2016 at 19:03
- Jez Scott said...
Dull dull dull. Possibly the most boring level ever.
- 18 September 2016 at 01:42
I have reached a whole new level of frustrated boredom. The person who created 1965 must have serious issues if they think this could be perceived as fun. JG
- 18 September 2016 at 03:09
King! Do you think social media wants to read negative comments about you because that is what is happening.
- 18 September 2016 at 06:21
This is impossible to pass. Have been on it for several days. Makes me sad that I will probably have to quit playing. What do people mean about posting for luck? What does that do?
- 18 September 2016 at 07:29
Impossible !!!!
- 18 September 2016 at 13:54
King, please fix this level!!
Not even close after playing more than 100 times.....
Maybe, it is time to quit now!
- 18 September 2016 at 14:46
I agree....boring, frustrating,stupid. Those who are leaving please come back if you find a fun game out there. I will do the same if I find something. It's been fun at least up until this episode.
- 19 September 2016 at 03:48
This level is beyond difficult. Too many points to score even with 50 moves. I've used a color bomb with striped, color bomb with wrapped, and still 10,000 points shy. I am so bored...
- 19 September 2016 at 08:43
Posting for Luck means that usually, after you post here.. as though magically, you rapidly get that "lucky board" that gets you moving to the next level.
- 19 September 2016 at 15:08
What a boring level. Shuffle, after shuffle, after shuffle & the most points I ever get is 15.000. King please find someone with some brains to devise levels otherwise ask the public. I'm sure we can come up with the most brilliant creations, better than the ones we have to put up with now.
- 19 September 2016 at 18:29
All I have to say is YAWN, YAWN, YAWN!!! Such a boring mindless level...... Can't wait till I get my lucky board so I can move on!!

Guess what? Another level where you have one useless love after another and a lot of shuffling! SHOCKING! Same crap, different level! These levels are so repiticipus and I think I can speak for us all, enough is enough. A lot of these levels are just like previous levels! Can't King come up with anything better that this! Guess not! And we continue to play why?????
- 20 September 2016 at 14:40
Dear King,
No matter what you may believe, making levels in which it is just pointless shuffling of candy in the hopes that someday you will get a lucky board is not DIFFICULT, it is BORING.
Everyone who used to enjoy Candy Crush.
Seriously, I just played one in which I had four - FOUR - color bombs, and still didn't come close. I don't know what else to do to get points! Like, really, what else are we supposed to do?!?!
- 20 September 2016 at 15:42
Even worse!
Yesterday came to almost 45000, only a few points off and than not making it, grrrrrrrr!
So frustrating!!!
The addiction keeps me going.....sigh.....
Posting for luck indeed helps sometimes, I even only 'look for luck' every now and then, hihi.
Also seems to do the trick LOL

- 21 September 2016 at 11:36
First time poster! Agree with so many of the above comments. It's no longer fun, which was the original reason we liked Candy Crush! I'm sure there are many talented individuals creating this game but there is a point where you lose your avid players! Yes, I've spent money on the game so you've made money off of me. Don't force me to quit, please!!!!!

Like everyone else I'm posting this for luck
- 22 September 2016 at 15:28
After a week of this horrific level, I just got a lucky board. I truly believe that is the only way to pass this one - any skills you possess are useless on this one. Boosters are of no help - do not waste them. I agree with prior comments - Candy Crush is not so much fun to play any longer. This level just about made me quit. I'm planning to see how the next several levels go and if it remains the same, i will give it up for sure.
- 22 September 2016 at 15:45
Has anyone been able to pass this one on an iPad? Unbearable!! Been on it for days now and never came anywhere remotely close. Why King, why?!
- 22 September 2016 at 17:22
Posting for luck on this tedious level
- 23 September 2016 at 20:43
Well that worked! Posted for luck, won next game with 60 points to spare! Good enough, I'm outa here!

- jackluver said...
I get very lucky to pass that horrible level 1964 and now something even worse!!!! We pass level 1964 and this is our reward. If they kept the chocolate but get rid of the chocolate spawners and added some mystery eggs and added 10 more moves this would be a FUN level. But the makers of these levels lately wouldn't know what fun is if it hit them right in the face with a shovel!

alternatives to candy crush saga that are NOT king games. These are similar to candy crush but better. You can play these on facebook and also download for mobile.
1. Cookie jam ( I am in the 500's in this game). Game is very similar to candy crush but without the impossible levels like this. Cookie jam level types ( clear the waffle cones-- like the jelly levels but clear waffle cones instead of jelly), drop the ingredients, and order levels. No timed levels or any of those boring get so many points in so many moves. For awhile they did have this annoying spreading caramel but unfortunately they tamed it down a lot. Haven't seen it for a long time
2. Juice jam-- made from the same company as cookie jam. If you like good match 3/match 4 games you might really enjoy this one
3. Jelly splash-- very relaxing game
4. Disco ducks
5. Bee brilliant
6. Pudding pop
7. Jolly wings
8. Bits of sweets
- 24 September 2016 at 01:28
I am so bored with this level that its making it very easy for me to just walk away most days. There's literally nothing you can do but wait for the lucky board. Mine best come soon.
- 24 September 2016 at 11:51
Hate these levels with no action, just reshuffle then drop, drop, drop.....boring. Take out the Yellow.

Waiting for a lucky board. This level is boring and so frustrating. Don't waste your boosters on this level.
- 1 October 2016 at 01:17
Please fix this level King. Impossible to pass.
- 2 October 2016 at 07:50
As a compulsive person, I have been hooked on Candy Crush. However, level 1965 is letting my compulsion come to an end. Not only is this a boring impossible level, my Kindle is freezing and every move is in slow motion. I have been on this level for days, and the best score has been 26,000. Watching paint dry sounds like a better alternative.
- 3 October 2016 at 18:27
Finally beat this level with 45,060 points by using about 5 lollipop hammers to create sprinkled chocolates and buying an extra 5 moves. Worth it just to get back this god-awful level.

- 5 October 2016 at 07:41

- 8 October 2016 at 06:41
Lucky board or nerfed! 54K. Started with choco ball which never helped before, today it did! Glad to move on to the next nightmare, whatever that may be. iPad
- 11 October 2016 at 15:31
I can certainly understand why people are quitting, to have two in a row is ridiculous. These games suck as it is, I'm just about ready to quit myself. Just not fun anymore, more like time wasting while waiting for a lucky board.
- 11 October 2016 at 20:47
posting for luck, I thought 1964 sucked, this is worse, now I have to wait 50 moves to lose, snoozzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
- 14 October 2016 at 18:49
After 1964 I thought that was the worst, and now this, come on CC, 2 freaking boring levels in a ROW?? are you running out of good ideas? I'll give it a bit longer but this is just not fun anymore!
- 15 October 2016 at 10:28
The last 20 levels or so have been awful. They have been exceedingly difficult and no longer any fun to play. It is time to move on when it becomes tedious and frustrating. All done here with King and their masochistic programmers. They totally missed the point of the game. These levels do not require skill - just extreme luck.
- 15 October 2016 at 10:51
After playing for many days on 3 different devices you win, I give up and quit. I don't get why you want to do this to players that have been loyal to your game for many levels.
- 17 October 2016 at 09:26
Another level of mindless rubbish.Time for a break.CC has just become tedious and no fun.This game has run its race.

Posting for luck!
- 23 October 2016 at 05:38
it can BE DONE! Got it this morning. No boosters, one star. No idea how many tries it took. Just keep chipping away at it. Got the board pretty much opened up. Color bombs started showing up and I matched them with the MOST COMMON color I could. Thank God that's over with.
- 24 October 2016 at 03:00
I agree with everyone who posted here. This level is sooo boring I find myself quitting in the middle of the game knowing I'm not going to get anywhere. Especially when the game needs to reshuffle 10 times and I still haven't made my way to the bottom. On my board, it's extremely difficult to make combos, just can't get the candies to match up. And I do agree that something is amiss with the points system. It's obvious that the developers are losing the momentum on these upper levels. Good for you from DOWN UNDER. I am truly envious ! I am right at the brink of joining you. A few more rounds of this yawn inducing level and I will be ready to put it down for good. I remember when cc was so much fun. Sure would like to know what happened. SOMETHING has changed and unfortunately for the worse. Good luck to all !
- 25 October 2016 at 15:36
7 days playing this stupid level. Bravo to the developers whom actually outdid themselves for creating a more boring and senseless level...and here I thought it couldn't get any worse.....stupid, stupid, stupid !! And why no option to use the coconut wheel booster? None of the boosters I've used so far are helping, only wasted!! BOO TO CC
THUMBS DOWN AGAIN !! When I DO decide to quit, it will be for good. And believe my words King, the time will be sooner than later. CC Sucks !
- 25 October 2016 at 16:09
Hear, hear !
- 29 October 2016 at 07:30
The only thing that worked for me is to use every possibility the create colour bombs and use them on the colour most available on the board. 3 or 4 of them brings you near to the score needed. So check every time if a colour bomb can be created. Good luck CC'ers. JJ from NL.
- 31 October 2016 at 14:23
After 1964, I am again confronted by a boring, impossible level. Getting closer to the end of CC.

- 8 November 2016 at 11:03
Don't waste your boosters on level 1965!I used a bunch and didn't even get close.If you continue to play,you will have to wait for them to pass you.Same old thing lately.ready to delete.
- 9 November 2016 at 12:06
Ok. Will throw some boosters at it and if nothing, I am done. What a crappy level, CC. Ready to give you a toss.
- 10 November 2016 at 15:43
Almost every level now is timed or getting so many points. As soon as you see these you know you are going to be on for days waiting for lucky board. You'd think they would appreciate that we wouldn't have come this far if we didn't appreciate some skill needed. I'm sick of this now and going to find something else not made by King
- 12 November 2016 at 07:53
How in the world do you reach 450,000!
- 18 November 2016 at 13:37
UGH! Hating this level!

- 22 November 2016 at 15:26
well can anyone tell me how do you get enough points to beat this. I will give this a few more days trying then I am going to be done with it if I can't beat it
- 22 November 2016 at 18:48
I think whoever the tech is that created this bizarre level, should show us players how to complete this! Just from reading all the comments, it seems King is losing a lot of players". I'm really starting to lose interest.
- 22 November 2016 at 19:13

Super boring level, very slow count for points, even sprinkles don't add up to many points.
- 4 December 2016 at 19:26
I thought I was never going to get this level then I started with a sprinkle booster and passed with 65k and two stars.

Very difficult level. Need a lucky board.
- 13 December 2016 at 20:23
Reading all these blog made me know this is a very difficult level. Waiting for a lucky board.

I couldn't decide which was worse - this game or the fact that I kept repeating thos level. Before I could decide I fell into a boredom coma.
- 14 December 2016 at 12:58
Come on cc. I need a lucky board!!!! I'm going to go play Pokémon go!
- 15 December 2016 at 08:23

So tired of this...been on it for 2 weeks. CC I want a lucky board for Christmas!!!!
- 17 December 2016 at 04:51
Been stuck on this level for many days now, very frustrating! Hoping for a lucky board. Never been able to get more than 2 sprinkle balls. if I can get three, plus a few colour wraps/stripes I"ll be done with this level!!
- 17 December 2016 at 10:50
Just reached the level...Wonder how long King will keep me imprisoned here. Lol

- Creeky said...
Posting for luck...yah right. No clue what the lucky board will be. I am going to listen to one hint given..well 2. Start with a sprinkle although I do not have many and going to use it on a single color.

I was getting nowhere on this level on my laptop or my iphone. My ipad no longer runs Candy Crush without crashing. I decided to open a new browser and log into Facebook to play it that way. I used Internet Explorer instead of Chrome. Passed the level on my 3rd try.
- 10 January 2017 at 07:54
- 14 January 2017 at 17:59
To offer different advice from what has already been posted. Beat this board by watching how CC was scoring all my moves. On about my 20th try, I finally used my saved up boosters for the first time knowing I had enough gold bars to buy extra time(if I was close at the end). I had a sprinkle bomb when the moves ran out and PRESTO...instead of CC giving me a few points, my score went from 30,ooo all the way up to 50,ooo and board 1965 was passed without using extra time
- 15 January 2017 at 22:39
These levels are getting harder to pass, but what I hate is that a booster is being added to my game when I'm not asking it to be added, so I'm wasting heaps of sprinkles or other boosters. They are just being added to the game, don't know how to stop that. A sprinkle in this game at the beginning is a waste of time. Is this happening to anyone else? It seems to happen since the last update.
- 16 January 2017 at 13:35
Not getting anywhere with this level. Lucky to get 20,000 let alone 45,000. Frustrated and bored.
- 17 January 2017 at 00:36
Posting for luck. Can't even come close to enough points.
- 20 January 2017 at 01:18
Theis game has gotten so boring that the only time I play anymore is when I am listening to an audiobook or watching TV. No skill is involved in many of the levels - - just lots of mind numbing tries until a lucky board emerges.
- 22 January 2017 at 12:49
Please for goodness sake read these comments....this level is just a pain of shifting one piece to the next and getting no where. Why do you have to make them so impossible. You certainly have taken all the fun out of this game. To many more games to play to keep struggling day after day. I think it's time to quit and take my life back. Please fix this level.
- 31 January 2017 at 12:09
Boring level. Got it after around 50 plays. No boosters. Lucky board. 3 colour bombs and plenty of stripes and wraps. 1966 also looks hard but more fun.
- 1 February 2017 at 07:36
- Shellie said...
I have started playing Soda Crush instead. It is much more enjoyable and it is easy to rack up boosters. It also has lots of quests to complete to earn even more boosters. They really changed Soda to make it lots of fun.
- 4 February 2017 at 09:08
- Shelvingqueen said...
Ugh! What a boring level. I too will take a break from CC. Maybe when I come back I'll get lucky. So dull. I also play CC Soda and am stuck on 790. I used three boosters to pass 789. Time to go look for pokemon.

- 18 February 2017 at 15:27
Barely even play anymore. Stopped being fun
- 18 February 2017 at 21:00
Boring, boring level requiring more luck than strategy. This kind of level makes candy crush no fun. If luck is needed, please send a lucky board before I lose all interest.
- 19 February 2017 at 07:51
- Suzie O said...
Here is my tip and how I passed. Take a break from playing for a few days and go after the sugar drops until you have at least 3 or preferably more hand switches. Then, look for the sprinkle pattern after every move and if you can get one by moving a candy then use the hand booster. If you can make three sprinkles and use them only on plain candy color there is the most of then you can pass.

After weeks of trying to pass this boring, impossible level, I may need to stop. This is no fun anymore. Could I please get a lucky board to renew my interest???
- 24 February 2017 at 07:26
Agree...something wrong with scoring in this level.
- 27 February 2017 at 23:32
A shocker!!!
- 1 March 2017 at 23:17
Was stuck on this for so long, then played without really paying attention (one handed, while at work...) and ta da, just like that, I was way over 45000. Maybe the secret IS to not pay attention to your score, just make moves.

I agree, I am enjoying Fishdom. I do appreciate the posters other suggestions. Fishdom does have some boring time and levels even though they are not as frustrating as candy crush. I like to have another game to go to when I get frustrated with those levels. Thanks for the post!
- 12 March 2017 at 09:55
- Sandy Carter said...
Just playing Fishdom again and was reminded that a downside to the game is that you get very few boosters. I don't know how many levels I've played where I came within one move of winning again and again. But you need nine jewels to get more moves and those jewels come very rarely. Like candy crush, they'd like you to spend money. I won't do it.
- 12 March 2017 at 10:39
- Sandy Carter said...
You've got a love Kings new ploy in 2017. Designate a level as superhard, add a skull and some lightning, and you can throw any old crap out there you want. I have six hours of play from a striped candy contest and no desire to ever play this level again.
- 13 March 2017 at 09:53
- Patti said...
I agree with the other 164 comments...no skill required on this level, boring, and the last several boards have been the same. I'll play for a few days and then take a break like others and look for a better game.

In trying to see where the bigger points came from, it seemed like the chocolates gave more. So, just sayin' by letting the chocolates build up a bit (like some earlier levels) I was able to get enough points without boosters. Good luck helps! ;-)
- 24 March 2017 at 07:34
- susan elster said...
Still waiting for my lucky board, i feel like it's useless, king is selfish, might be better to uninstall and move in, after all if were this far, one. Would assume we like this game... Right King??? Treat us right!
- 24 March 2017 at 18:13
Used the tips, but can't figure out the scoring. Takes all moves just to hit 20,000. Should have given it up for Lent? Perseverance I guess. Good luck folks
- 2 April 2017 at 01:23
So boring. So stupid. So tired of these levels. One after another. It doesn't stop. Give us a break.
- 4 April 2017 at 16:23
I seem to get mostly stripes with occasional wraps and very few sparkles over a period of tries. I got to 41,000 after using hand switches and hammers to try and get the score. I tried the extra moves wheel and still no joy, and was given the option of using my gold bars, which I refused to do as they ask for too many just for a few extra moves. Plus there was no guarantee I would've got my 45k. I agree this is one of the worst levels and totally tedious. I've used so many of my boosters that I'm now having to go back and play previous levels to gain more boosters.
- 5 April 2017 at 22:53
Well after my previous post, playing previous levels for extra boosters, playing this level again and with boosters, I finally got through this time. I thought I would be just matching 3 x candies again, as well as the odd stripe etc. But this time I cleared the chocolate earlier, which obviously helped, and concentrated on hitting colour candies with a sparkle, but not matching with a stripe. I got wraps and stripes and found I got about 9k points each time I managed to match them. Taking into account other explosions that go on with it led to over 50k. Lucky board but with boosters to start and resetting until a sparkle matched a wrap to help clear the board.
Good luck everyone.

- Char P said...
How many of you have collected the special candy to get boosters only for king to rip you off and not give them to you? I get the message I need to connect to get them even though I was connected. This has happened a few times now. Not happy and I think it's time to delete this game and do something more productive
- 8 April 2017 at 06:07
- Char P said...
I have been ripped off a few times now trying to gain more boosters it tells me I need to connect to collect it even though I am connected. I never get those
- 8 April 2017 at 06:10
Worst mistake EVER! 2nd try was 400 points away. I though that was easy I don't have to use my gold bars for more moves. Ewwwww 3 days later can't even come close. Oh well, maybe this will help me get another good board. Fingers crossed. Jane E

I used up all my boosters...have been on this level for over a month....I quit!!! It's over!!
- 2 May 2017 at 16:17
My gosh it is a clone of level 1964. Are you seriously trying to get people to quit? We all told you how much we hated the last level and now you did it again. Is it just to show us that you can. It is not fun and very boring. Combos are too hard to make. I think I will take one of the suggestions of a new game given in this blog by another disgruntled player.
- 8 May 2017 at 06:19
OK Now I am really mad as I bought 3 boosters and got within 3000 and the price got too high and none of the boosters were extra spins so King manipulated in another way. I am so close to giving this up and I have never said that befor!!
- 8 May 2017 at 13:39
After weeks and weeks this level and this game is getting old. Thanks to the person that posted a list of new games to try!
- 13 May 2017 at 11:41
I think this one is going to break me of CC addiction! So mundane and frustrating.

I am so bored with level. I have been playing it for weeks and don't come close to 45 thousand. It shuffles about 20 times before you have a move that does nothing.I really have to force myself to even play this one.
- 4 June 2017 at 01:20
- lucy said...
I really don't think I can play this level anymore I'm so bored with it I hate to even log in.:(
- 6 June 2017 at 00:23
I spent over ten dollars buying extra lives. When I only needed a few more points the game froze. I lost all that money and the game. I am approaching the end of my interest in this game. Right now I feel ripped off.
- 6 June 2017 at 14:06
- lucy said...
If your trying to make people quit playing this is the one. Been playing this level for weeks and it like shuffle make make a move shuffle than nothing than shuffle.At 29 moves I have only 7000 points. If you think this is fun you would be wrong.I had one good board only got 30 thousand and than start over with the nothing moves.I have never been mad at this game till now.
- 8 June 2017 at 20:27
- lucy said...
Is there away you can fix this level Candy crush? There is something wrong with this level.Takes 20 moves and 10 shuffles to even start playing.I have used up all my boosters and had three donuts and still not close.please fix these before it drives me crazy.There is no skill or help from anyone to pass it.It needs fixed.
- 12 June 2017 at 01:25
- lucy said...
You no I was playing this level for over hundreds od time and got to thinking as it was shuffling over and over that I bet there is couple of guys watching and laughing at me playing this stupid level over and over. I even started laughing at myself when I made a move but the candies disappeared and became a different color. When you finally open the board I only have a few moves left and only have 7000 points but like a idiot I keep playing.I just started to laugh at myself thinking about these two guys laughing at how stupid I am.Once I had 43 thousand but no real moves left i bet they were really laughing then I sure was lol.So I asked myself how many more time I will play before its not funny anymore.So if there is a couple of guys watching me look like a fool I don't blame you because I'm laughing to.
- 12 June 2017 at 23:22
cherylcandycrush here:
Extremely hard level to get through though you don't realise that at first as you'll be able to make a few stripes & wraps. I am not through yet. Just want to warn-don't waste your boosters on this level. Colour ball tick only ever yields one. Both boosters isn't much more help either. better to wait out a lucky board though I haven't come close.
- 20 June 2017 at 16:37
ARGHHHH. Days and days trying this level on multiple devices, nothing works better than anything else. Today (on PC) I was already at 25K points with 23 moves left, so I naively thought, "oh I'll definitely get it this time." Even with multiple combos and cascades, I finished at 44,700, just 300 short of the minimum. Then Tiffy popped up with 'you're so close, only 1% more' offering me to use 10 gold bars to finish. I don't have 10 gold bars and refuse to buy them, especially for a level that is 100% luck and no skill. This is a reminder of how infrequently gold bars come up in the daily spin, sugar drop prizes etc - at least for me. Moral of the story: apparently it can be done since the 2 Facebook friends who are ahead of me got past this level, but it's all about waiting for a lucky board. Thanks King for another crappy level.
- 2 July 2017 at 12:05
44940. I'm not kidding, got 5 free moves too. Son of a ........
- 9 July 2017 at 10:01
Guess I got lucky, made it through after maybe a dozen tries. I focused on opening the board and getting to the bottom. I paid no mind to the chocolate factories at the top. My priority was making specials. If I couldn't do that, I looked to remove any chocolate toward the bottom. If still no move, I made whatever move I could as low on the board as possible to maximise any cascade. Don't hold your special candies; use them if they will open up the board.
After the horror of 1963 I can't believe all the whinging on this one. Maybe I'm still giddy about making it past that one.

I have been on level 1965 for over 3 months now!!! Maybe this is God's way of telling me to quit and do something more useful with my time??

Ok, so earlier today I played this level, oh I don't know for the 600th time, and finally it happened, 70 some thousand points reached, only 45,000 required, and your not going to advance me??? WHY WHY WHY???
- 3 August 2017 at 19:10
- Me said...
I scored FINALLY by matching a colour bomb with a wrapped candy, did that twice throughout the game. Was on this level at least a week, definitely frustrating!!!!!
- 6 August 2017 at 06:09
Beyond boring. Have tried boosters and saving combos. Super hard levels are just levels with insufficient moves. Time to move on!

I want to work on an open source & free game engine will I get azab-e-jariah if people use it to create games involving things which are prohibited. Since its licensed under GPL I cannot control what people want to do with it. If yes then what if the features I code arent directly involved with creation of these (prohibited) things like image compostior, water refraction scripts etc. instead of modelling and animation tools.
Praise be to Allaah.
If this engine and open source will mostly be used to make permissible games, then it is permissible to make it.
If it will mostly be used for haraam things, it is not permissible.
This general principle applies to manufacturing and producing anything that may be used for either halaal or haraam purposes, when it is not known what each user will use it for. Attention should be paid to the way in which it is mostly used by people, because when it is not possible to know about each user, it is sufficient to know what is usually the case. If what is usually the case is that it is used for haraam purposes, it is not permissible to help with it, because of the prohibition on helping others in sin and transgression.
It says in Fataawa al-Lajnah ad-Daa'imah (13/109): Everything that will be used in a haraam manner or it is thought most likely that it will be used in that manner, it is haraam to manufacture it or import it or sell it or distribute it among the Muslims. End quote.
For more information please see question no. 2898, 98769 and 71170
And Allah knows best. Continue reading

LINCOLN � A Veteran Trinity Rep member, actor Stephen Thorne has many favorite roles he�s played � Homer Wells from The Cider House Rules �The Cider House Rules,� John Proctor from The Crucible �The Crucible�...
LINCOLN � A Veteran Trinity Rep member, actor Stephen Thorne has many favorite roles he�s played � Homer Wells from �The Cider House Rules,� John Proctor from �The Crucible� and Arthur from �Camelot.�
While he adores his job, it doesn�t take a genius to see that his favorite, challenging and most rewarding role is being a father and family man � a part he plays every day.
Thorne, 43, is married to Angela Brazil, 42, and the couple have two children, Dashiell, 7, and Vivien, 3.
Fatherhood is a role requiring mental focus, daily practice and patience. At times it is physically rigorous. And it appears that Thorne is having a blast with it.
�I just want to be here with my kids, trying to just be,� he said.
Vivien, his youngest, vies for attention one hot morning during The Journal�s interview with Thorne. While Dashiell is at school, Vivien prances about, bringing out a sparkly nail polish kit (because it was a beauty moment), running from daddy�s lap to mommy�s lap and occasionally is asked a question, responding that �sometimes I like to say something silly.�
Thorne hoists her up, flipping her upside down so she can pretend to walk on the ceiling. It�s how he gets some of his exercise.
Though this is the kind of simple pleasure that makes this the role of a lifetime, for Thorne and Brazil, also a company member at Trinity Rep, the day to day is the typical hectic pace of any household with both parents working.
It�s busy enough juggling schedules for their children�s activities and school deadlines, while managing the home, running errands, cooking and cleaning.
And, added to that mix, there are periods of grueling tech rehearsals, four performances a year and other gigs � both teach at Clark University, in Worcester, Mass., and have personal writing projects. The result is a father who is nearly spread thin and a couple craving a little downtime.
�When we are rehearsing or we are running a show, we are working at nights. You do get bigger chunks of time during the day,� he said. �It�s a lot of tag team, divide and split. Somehow we figured out how to do it a little more efficiently.�
On those tech-heavy weeks, the couple hire a nanny and things get, well, hectic.
�The kids feel it and we can tell they have had enough,� Brazil said. But everyone make the best of it.
�We split everything as a family,� she said. �That doesn�t happen in many families. That makes him an incredible role model for his children. We have the exact same responsibilities. That is a gift.�
Given that pace, life at home with Thorne, whenever possible, is about simplicity.
The simplicity is evident in the couple�s d�cor. The family�s favorite space is a large parlor with a great movie screen-sized window that offers panoramic views of their sprawling backyard. There, the family savors a vista of a lush green hills adorned with a sycamore, pine and maple trees.
The room is cozy with a generous sofa, a play space for the children, lots of books, family pictures and a couple of leather chairs, one of which is a favorite spot for Thorne when he�s writing on his laptop.
�Working late, late, late at night,� he said, describing his routine when writing plays. �You get used to it. We�re tired a lot.�
One of the things Thorne loves to do on his days off is spend time outside in the yard. There are lots of gardening projects � his wife grew up on a farm. And then there is just spending the quality time with his children.
�After school we�ll tend to do something,� he said. The couple�s backyard has a sloping hill that is �perfect for the �slip and slide.� It�s good for sledding, or playing in the snow,� he said.
Sometimes he is just reading to them. And giving a clue into another one of Thorne�s interests, a lone action figure in a black suit, faintly resembling Edgar Allan Poe, lies motionless on a small table in the parlor.
Vivien spies the doll, snatching it into play, using Thorne�s head as a stage.

Greg came within a feather's breadth of giving "Duckman of Aquatraz" a perfect five-star rating, while GeoX seemed just about ready to TAR and feather writer "Francis Ross." I put Ross' name in quotes because (1) I've seen it spelled elsewhere as "Francis Moss," and (2) given that this is "Ross"' only writing credit ever according to IMDB, it's not out of the realm of possibility that "Francis Ross" is some sort of self-incriminating "Alan Smithee" substitute. For sure, if I had been a DuckTales freelancer and had presented this script for approval, I might have wanted to hide behind a pseudonym. Though the ep doesn't truly collapse until the third act, collapse it most assuredly does, done in by a deadly combination of excessive sentimentality, some overly simplistic writing, and a view of the Duckburg legal system that is, to say the least, quirky (though, to be sure, some future eps will make the legal system look even worse).
Easter eggs being hidden in various media, but never a "Get Out of Jail Free" card). "Sheer insane idiocy" might be overstating things a bit, GeoX, but I've been shaking my head over this transparent dodge for a good long time, trying to figure out why "Ross" wasn't called in by Jymn, Mark, et Cie. and asked to come up with something just a tad more reasonable.
The infamous "Glomgold's only crime was stealing his own painting!" argument was originally taken to the cleaners by Robert Ingersoll, who pointed out the obvious fact that Glomgold could have been found guilty of perjury (assuming he was ever actually asked to take the stand, of course!) and/or the bearing of false witness (a violation of a Commandment, at the very least). But there is one other problem with the "tearfully joyous" wrap-up dock scene. Even assuming that McGurk was cleared (and I'm assuming that Glomgold would have had to do that somewhere along the line, thereby adding to the list of sins for which he could presumably have been "sent up" himself), wouldn't he have to face some kind of charge for escaping while still under confinement? Mudder McGurk's "I'm so proud of you, Mad Doggie!" acquires a somewhat ironic undertone in this context. I've often wondered why Mad Dog, so well characterized for a "mere" one-shot supporting player, never made another appearance in the series. The reason why may be more ominous than we would like to admit.

HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS — Macedonia's magical run in Lithuania continued during Day 2 of the second round at EuroBasket 2011, one of three games on the schedule in Group F action.
We've been talking up Bo McCalebb and his boys for a while now and they're making it hard to stop talking about them …
Macedonia 65, Georgia 63 (Box Score)
While he is far from a one-man show, McCalebb did everything humanly possible to secure victory for Macedonia in this matchup. The final two of his game-high 27 points came with :00.2 to play in a nail-biter. McCalebb has become every bit the force for his team that Tony Parker has been for France in this competition, proving virtually unstoppable at times throughout the past nine days. McCalebb, the only player on the Macedonia roster to score more than eight points in this game, also finished with four assists and four steals.
Without Zaza Pachulia (calf injury) in uniform to man the middle, Georgia seemed completely out of sync for most of this game. Nikoloz Tskitishvili picked up the slack, finishing with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Viktor Sanikidze added 15 points and seven rebounds but also committed seven of Georgia's whopping 20 turnovers.
They haven't officially sealed the deal yet, but the quarterfinals look like a very realistic expectation for Macedonia at this point. Staying completely in the moment and handling the opponent at hand while not thinking about trying to make history has worked for Macedonia to this point, so there is no reason for them to look beyond Saturday's game against Slovenia.
Russia 79, Finland 60 (Box Score)
Not every game in this competition is going to be a fair fight. And this certainly was one of those games that appeared unfair from very early on. Russia was simply better than Finland in virtually every aspect. The two-headed monster of Andrei Kirilenko (14 points, four rebounds and four steals) and Viktor Kryhapa (11 assists) led the way for powerful Russia.
Russia's dominance inside was evident early on and executed by the likes of Timofey Mozgov, who finished with 11 points, four rebounds and two blocks. Russia outscored Finland a staggering 52-18 in the paint. Russia's lead reached 20 points after halftime and they cruised down the stretch.
If you need an illustration of just how powerful this Russia team can be, they won going away while making just one of their 10 three-pointers. They were also careless with the ball (19 turnovers), yet they still managed 22 assists to Finland's nine.
Greece 69, Slovenia 60 (Box Score)
Greece showed some serious finishing kick, outscoring Slovenia 25-14 in the fourth quarter to seal this extremely important win and move a step closer to making their way to the quarterfinals. Nikolaos Zisis had the big game for Greece, draining two huge 3-pointers down the stretch to help the winners finish this one off. Zisis scored a game-high 19 points and was the only player from Greece to finish in double figures. But he received plenty of help from a deep bench, including seven points and a team-high nine rebounds from Kostas Koufos.
This game wasn't the prettiest one played in this competition, particularly for Slovenia. They never did find the right shooting touch. they made just 38 percent of their shots from the floor, and that includes a dismal 24 percent (6-for-25) effort from beyond the 3-point line. Erazem Lorbek and Goran Dragic were a combined 6-for-17 from the floor and just 1-for-8 from distance.
Long-distance shooting is essentially what won this game for Greece. They made nine of their 17 shots from long-range and nailed them down the stretch, those two from Zisis and another dagger from Antonios Fotsis to put the game away late. The very best teams in this competition have shown an ability to win games when they are clicking from deep and by going inside if they are not. Greece has the ability to do both.
*** Friday's slate of games in Group E should be as explosive as any we've seen so far in this competition. Spain and Serbia, Germany and Turkey, and Lithuania and France get after each other to finish the work week. ***

Website buttons from internet telephony startup Jajah that allowed eBay buyers and sellers to initiate phone calls have been banned by eBay, a move that Jajah charges is unjustified.
This week, Jajah released a set of buttons that people can embed on a variety of websites to allow others to contact them by phone using the company's internet telephony platform.
Among the benefits Jajah touts is its ability to drastically reduce the cost of calls thanks to its use of internet technology and to its agreements with carriers.
Jajah developed a button for eBay, figuring that the ability for buyers and sellers to chat on the phone about potential purchases would be convenient, said Jajah CEO Trevor Healy.
Moreover, eBay already provides a similar functionality via its Skype service for some product categories, so there is a precedent for this on the marketplace, he said.
But eBay didn't think so highly of the Jajah plan, ruling that sellers who embed the Jajah button are violating an eBay policy related to the inclusion of links in listings.
The reasoning for the ban is that eBay requires that all interactions between its buyers and sellers occur within its marketplace platform, said Catherine England, an eBay spokeswoman.
This is safer for buyers and sellers and lets eBay keep a record of the activities related to a listing, in case one of the parties puts in a claim against the other and a dispute has to be resolved, England said.
The eBay objection doesn't make total sense to Healy, who counters that Jajah users also have a log of their calls, but he's asking people to stop embedding Jajah buttons on eBay until further notice.
"We don't want to upset eBay, nor do we want our users to get their listings deleted," he said.
Jajah will poll its users to see how many of them are also eBay sellers and would like to have the Jajah functionality on their eBay listings, Healy said.
Based on the findings, Jajah will decide whether to approach eBay to seek a solution. Jajah didn't consult with eBay before making the buttons for the marketplace.
For Jajah, the eBay decision is a setback in its push to make its service available to consumers beyond its regular and mobile websites, he said. However, none of the other 30 or 40 other websites for which Jajah created buttons – including Craigslist.com, Bebo.com, LinkedIn.com and MySpace.com – have objected, he said.
The Jajah buttons violate eBay's Links Policy, England said. In the listings where eBay allows Skype buttons, it requires the buttons be placed in the section devoted to asking sellers a question about the item on sale. This section also includes a mechanism for buyers to type and send a message to sellers.
People can embed the Jajah buttons on their web pages and social-networking profiles by copying and pasting into them a snippet of HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) code. Jajah has an explanation of how the buttons work in a blog posting, as well as a writeup specifically about the eBay button in another other blog posting.
EBay doesn't have a way to block the Jajah buttons from being embedded on its listings, but it will remove listings that contain them, England said.

text: Street art has become especially exciting and unpredictable over the last several years. However, the last place many would expect to find it is on the water. The New York based street artist SWOON designed three sea vessels built from salvaged material. The "flotilla" sailed from the coast of Slovenia to Venice, Italy. Though, definitely not the street SWOON effectively brings an urban aesthetic to sea. Photographer Tod Seelie was along for the ride to document the trip. The photographs and wild journey are as amazing as the vessels themselves. The raucous mash up of materials perfectly match the crew and set the atmosphere for what was certainly a wild ride.

The West Boylston/Tahanto Regional High School football team is heading to the Central Mass. Division 5 Super Bowl.
Aided by a tenacious defense and strong special teams play, the Lions took a 14-7 decision from Narragansett Regional in the divisional playoff game at Oakmont Regional's Arthur I. Hurd Memorial Field on Tuesday night.
West Boylston/Tahanto will now play Leicester, which defeated Tyngsboro in the other divisional playoff, on Saturday, in the Division 5 Super Bowl, at Worcester State University, at 10 a.m.
The Lions own an 11-1 record, which ties the 1988 Super Bowl champion team for the most wins in school history.
The victory also marks only the second time that a West Boylston/Tahanto team has advanced to the Super Bowl.
Narragansett, the tournament's fourth seed, finishes the season with an 8-4 record.
In the tightly contested game, 'Gansett struck first.
After an exchange of punts in the first quarter, the Warriors took the ball from their own 42 and moved it to the Lions' 1 in five plays, all on the ground.
On fourth and goal from the 1, with 3:21 left in the first quarter, 'Gansett junior quarterback Jon Lashua burst off tackle to paydirt. The point-after kick by senior Scott Favreau was good, and the Warriors had claimed a 7-0 lead.
As it has done all season, West Boylston/Tahanto came right back.
After the Lions' defense stood tall and forced a turnover on downs at its own 25, West Boylston/Tahanto, aided by a 41-yard pass play from senior fullback Mike Pace to junior split end Bryan Hayes, marched to the 'Gansett 35 in four plays.
"That was a fullback pass to Hayes all the way," Lions coach Dave Tinglof said. "That was a huge play for us. A very big play."
On first and 10 from the 35, Pace motored around left end for a touchdown. Senior captain Tyler O'Day's conversion kick was wide right, but the Lions had closed the gap to one point, 7-6.
There was six minutes remaining in the second quarter, but neither team was able to mount a scoring drive before the break.
The Lions didn't waste any time taking the lead in the second half. After Hayes returned the second-half kickoff 15 yards, West Boylston/Tahanto took over on its own 19.
On second and 12 from the 17, junior back Ben Tasker, on an inside reverse, burst through a big hole in the middle and rambled 61 yards to the Warrior 22. Tasker was the Lions' leading rusher in the game, racking up 84 yards on eight carriers.
On the next play, senior quarterback Steven Gould connected with Hayes for 18 yards to the 'Gansett 4.
The Warrior defense then got tough, pushing the Lions back 2 yards in three plays.
Faced with a fourth and goal from the 6, junior back Devin Desautels got the call and motored to paydirt behind the block of senior captain Matt Loureiro. Gould hit Tasker for the two-point conversion, and West Boylston/Tahanto owned a 14-7 lead, its first of the game.
Desautels provided the margin of victory on a blue 61 jet play.
"I went in motion and Matt (Loureiro), our starting guard, pulls," Desautels said. "He was the lead blocker for me, and I went in (to the end zone).
"It feels great," he said. "We went to a Super Bowl in Pop Warner, but nothing can compare to this."
The Lions' defense needed to stop 'Gansett sophomore running back Joe O'Neil, who ran for 100 yards in the first half.
Led by Loureiro; Pace; Hayes; seniors Ryan Lindsay, Rob Jameson and Luke Fancy; and junior Alex Churchill, the West Boylston/Tahanto defense was able to do just that. O'Neil was limited to 6 yards in the second half.
The Lions then kept the Warriors out of the red zone on their next four possessions to preserve the victory.
Desautels intercepted a Lashua pass in the waning minutes of the game to cement it.
O'Day played a key role down the stretch on both defense and special teams. He batted a pass down, forcing a 'Gansett punt, made a huge hit on a fourth and inches play, and boomed a 46-yard punt late in the game to pin the Warriors deep in their own territory.
"These ('Gansett) guys played strong, and I knew it would be a tough game," West Boylston/Tahanto coach Dave Tinglof said. "Two of the best teams in Division 5 got together tonight and played a great game.
"I am so proud of the way this (West Boylston/Tahanto) team played," he said. "They've worked so hard this year. Our defense has done it all year, and we are the top defense in all of Central Mass.
"This was a defensive win tonight, for sure," Tinglof continued. "After that first ('Gansett) drive, we made some adjustments to their formations, we picked up the play, and the second half was ours.
"It was our goal all year from day one to make it (to the Super Bowl), and I knew these guys could achieve it," he said.
O'Day described his big hit on Warrior junior back Cam Savoy that forced a turnover on downs on fourth and inches with 'Gansett driving at the West Boylston/Tahanto 36.
"We were in double eagle (formation) and we were going to pinch that B-gap hard, and we stood up Savoy," O'Day said. "Savoy is an unbelievable running back and tough to stop.
"This (making the Super Bowl) is a dream come true," he said. "We've been working hard for four years and have finally reached the pinnacle."

Hunter Professor Emerita A MacArthur Genius
More than four decades ago, when Nancy G. Siraisi had two small children and an entry-level job editing encyclopedias, she made a decision that changed her life.
"I'm from England, and I had a degree from an English University, and I had no intention to pursue other degrees," said Siraisi, Hunter College's distinguished professor emerita of history. "I found it difficult to work full-time. I wanted to shift to teaching and I needed graduate courses."
She enrolled in a history course at Hunter College. Her instructor was professor Pearl Kibre, a scholar in medieval studies. "She saw that I knew a little Latin, and she immediately told me that I must enroll in a Ph.D. program," Siraisi said. "She was a woman of great force of character, and I did so. I have never regretted it."
Kibre was right: Siraisi, a historian of late Medieval and Renaissance medicine, is one of 25 recipients of the 2008 John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation's prestigious "genius awards" that are presented annually to individuals for creativity and contributions to their fields. "Professor Kibre was a historian of considerable eminence, and what helped me was her encouragement," Siraisi said. "The Graduate Center also gave me practical help that I can't imagine I could have gotten anywhere else."
Siraisi and her husband were of "very modest means," so the Herbert H. Lehman Fellowship she received made it possible for her to continue her studies. She earned a doctorate in history from The Graduate Center in 1970 and for more than three decades taught history at Hunter and The Graduate Center. "I can't remember how much the fellowship was, but it was the same or slightly higher than what I was making in my editing job, plus the University was tuition-free at that time," she says. "I really do owe my entire academic career to CUNY."
At 76, Siraisi plans to continue her research. "I have several projects, but I also see it as a validation of the work I've done already." The $500,000 award, which is given out in $100,000 increments annually, will go a long way toward furthering her research. "It will make it easy to travel to European libraries and easy to get requests of scans and films of manuscripts, which can be quite costly," she said.

Best ways to support someone with PTSD
It happens in movies, on TV and in books. Perhaps even a family member struggles with it. A soldier returns from Vietnam or the Middle East traumatized by his experiences.
While getting PTSD after returning home from a war is a common cause, it's not the only way it can happen.
Sarah Rhinehart, psychiatric mental health nurse practitioner at Sentara Healthcare, says many other sources of PTSD aren't widely understood.
The symptoms of PTSD are numerous and more than a little jarring for those who face them. They stem from powerful, troubling and haunting memories. Without proper care, these symptoms may last for a lifetime, and may even worsen as time wears on.
Rhinehart says the most common symptoms include:
- Intrusive memories of the event
- Upsetting nightmares about the event
- Trigger avoidance (steering clear of anything that may cause a PTSD response)
- Mood instability
- Withdrawal from friends and family
- Inability to feel love or other positive emotions
PTSD patients may experience a reaction to an event that threatens either themselves or others with emotions that include persistent fear, helplessness or horror, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI).
These symptoms, while descriptive of most with PTSD, may not describe every individual. "People are like snowflakes, and everyone processes trauma differently," Sarah says.
While some may consciously experience trigger avoidance, others may do so unconsciously. That could be avoiding a violent TV show that you know will disturb you, or it could be shying away from certain modes of travel.
However, even if your loved one exhibits some of these symptoms, it doesn't mean he necessarily has PTSD. "The difference between a healthy response to trauma and behavior that points to PTSD is twofold," Sarah explains. "If the symptoms are experienced over the course of several or more months and those symptoms negatively impact your life, you may have PTSD."
What Are Treatment Options?
In addition to antidepressant and antianxiety medication, NAMI points out three psychotherapy options available to those suffering from PTSD. They include:
- Behavior Therapy. This option typically exposes a person to the feared situation while working on relaxation and coping techniques. This gradually makes her less sensitive to it.
- Cognitive Therapy. The person with PTSD looks at her own thought patterns and minimizes thoughts that lead to non-productive and negative feelings.
- Group Therapy. This is for those who would benefit most from being with others who have experienced something similar. Group therapy gives them encouragement and lets them know that what they're feeling is not uncommon.
Medication taken with these therapies can help manage PTSD symptoms, including depression, insomnia and feeling on edge.
Lend Your Support
Besides the numerous disheartening symptoms a person encounters with PTSD, he may also feel guilt or blame himself for his feelings. This is where emotional support is needed.
"A family member is in a really good position to provide unconditional, positive regard, love and support," Rhinehart says.
PTSD symptoms may also distract him or make him less likely to visit his physician. In fact, he may want to avoid seeing the physician because he associates the care provider with the traumatic event.
"A friend or family member can be instrumental in making sure a patient stays disciplined in engaging with his physician," Rhinehart says. This part is very important, because without the proper treatment, it will be very difficult to get past symptoms.
While it is important to communicate with someone who has PTSD, the communication must remain healthy, so the person doesn't shut down.
Rhinehart describes four good ways to keep communication lines open:
- Be willing to listen without interjecting or offering your own commentary.
- Help him process his emotions. Try to empathize with what he is feeling, because doing so will help him clearly identify those emotions for himself.
- Stay away from negative talk and criticizing.
- Remember that the person with PTSD has to be willing to discuss emotions. If that isn't the case, don't press.

Nurturing Students Who Take the Lead
A complete loss of vision at 9 months didn't limit Liliete Lopez after she came to the U.S. from Nicaragua in 1990, 13 years old and never having attended school.
Lopez began her education at 16, learning English to earn her GED. Today she is one of 25 students from across the University selected as 2009-2010 Leadership Academy Fellows.
Classmates at Hostos Community College, where Lopez is a liberal arts and science major, gave her a standing ovation when her name was called at the Academy's opening ceremony and reception at Hostos this fall. Representing 16 colleges and 20 majors, Lopez and her Leadership peers comprise the second batch of fellows since the Academy was established in 2007 to teach advanced leadership skills. This class of fellows was selected largely for the leadership they demonstrated as strong advocates and effective leaders on campus and in their communities. Some serve on campus clubs, assist in their churches, at shelters, soup kitchens, halfway houses and nursing homes; some create their own organizations.
"When you look at the problems we are facing in these United States and globally you realize that many are a result of a lack of leadership," said Chancellor Matthew Goldstein, who told the fellows: "The world is going to be better because of you."
Keynote speaker Philip A. Berry, vice chairperson of the Board of Trustees, added, "A leader is different from other individuals …. You are being nurtured and grooming yourself. You will create the paradigm shift to show how things can be different."
The Leadership Academy was conceived by Garrie W. Moore, the former vice chancellor for student affairs who retired this fall. Moore envisaged the academy as the University focal point for leadership courses, conferences, experiences and contacts long associated with Ivy League colleges. Moore's goal was to have every student graduate with the leadership skills that are increasingly sought by the business, nonprofit and academic spheres. Such training is available today on all campuses. Building upon this mission is the academy's executive director, Joe-Joe McManus, who holds a doctoral degree in educational leadership and joined CUNY in February 2008. McManus has brought together campus leadership educators to form the CUNY Leadership Development Council, which created a model for producing global leaders based on self-awareness, identity development, cultural competency, civic engagement, community building and professional excellence. "We wanted to develop something that drew from the … great programs that have developed over the years in leadership," McManus said.
The academy offers three core programs: the year-long Fellows Program; a CUNY Ambassadors Program in which students develop skills and acumen to advocate for their community and issues they're passionate about; and CUNY Corps, to nurture leaders who focus on service on campus, in the community, the city and internationally.
Welcoming the audience at the opening ceremony, McManus said CUNY has a "great tradition" of producing leaders in an array of disciplines. President Barack Obama, he noted, did some of his early community organizing at City College. "The challenges we face as a nation remind us of the importance of well-prepared and socially conscious leadership," McManus said.
A surprise announcement that the Verizon Foundation had donated a $5,000 scholarship for each fellow was greeted with resounding applause. McManus later commented, "This is extremely important for our students, many of whom work one or two jobs in addition to attending classes. These scholarships will lighten the load and allow the students to focus on the rigors of their class work as well as the additional opportunities and responsibilities of the fellows program."
Jay-Sheree Allen and William Leverett, both 20, two fellows whom McManus views as promising future leaders, have plans for the money.
Allen, a Jamaican immigrant and a pre-med student at City College, will devote it to Women of Excellence, Strength and Tenacity, Inc., a nonprofit she founded and heads. It seeks to empower underprivileged girls 9 to 12, and women 18 and older, offering them tutoring, mentoring and self-esteem and professional and personal development workshops. The academy, Allen said, is "leadership boot camp." She wants to lead, she said, "because I've been blessed, and I've been charged with being a blessing to others."
A political science and urban studies junior at Queens College, Leverett will save his $5,000 to propel future plans. He hopes to combine the arts and policy-making to provide funding for community groups addressing homelessness and other social ills. "The academy is a place that can mold you," he said. "Even though you might not have a direct vision of what you want to change, it molds you into that person. Once your passion hits you, you can take off running. This is going to be an intense, productive year to help us grow even more, and I look forward to that."
Leverett is a former Eagle Scout. He plays clarinet and tenor saxophone, and is involved in the University's Black Male Initiative; in Yearup, a workforce development program for youth that offers private sector experience; and other nonprofits that provide leadership opportunities.
Lopez, 32, who is in her last semester at Hostos, will use her $5,000 to buy a laptop she will load with software for the blind, and to help pay for future education. Bound for Queens College to study political science, she plans to advocate for low-income people and people with disabilities, and run for office. "I will be fighting for individual rights," she said.
At Hostos, she helps with college registration and orientation, and was vice president of Ability Awareness, a club for people with disabilities. She participates in the Hostos Leadership Academy whose goal is "to promote leadership as a skill necessary to every single person and a skill to be utilized in every aspect of a person's life."
