Art Deco Sapphire Diamond Bracelet
Small panels of 14k yellow gold embossed with intricate detailing on the top and sides make for a stylish Art Deco bracelet. Three of the thirty-five links are embellished with gems – two (2) round faceted sapphires (one natural and one synthetic) and one (1) old European diamond set the mood. The bracelet has a truly sensuous feel around the wrist as the linked panels are flexible and seem to mold themselves to the contours of the wrist. A tongue and groove clasp with a safety catch for added security finishes the Art Deco period piece.
Date: Circa 1925.
Measurements: 7 inches (17.8 cm) in length by 3/16 of an inch (0.4 cm) at the widest. Will fit a wrist of about 7 1/4 inches or less. Weight of 10.8 grams (6.9 dwt).

Rattling AC tensioner, 185K miles - no way TSB 03-01-38-019a applies... right?
2001 Yukon XL K1500 5.3L
Had some rattling of the AC belt tensioner, so picked up a new one. It helpfully had TSB 03-01-38-019a prominently displayed on the box. While that TSB does not apply to my year, it's the same problem. Which this seems to indicate as well: http://www.gmtruckclub.com/forum/sho...#axzz25Qz2O21O
The new tensioner and belt made it worse, not better. I'm sure the old belt was doing more slipping than gripping, leading to a better outcome and no damaged tranny lines. AC fuse is pulled so someone doesn't accidentally trash everything, but momma's not happy she has to drive in the heat with no AC.
BUT there's a big caveat - truck has 185K trouble-free miles (owned since new), so I'm not convinced the TSB applies in this case. Or does it?
Any cheaper fix than an A/C redo (dryer, compressor, orifice tube, etc.)? It's not the dreaded R4 compressor, which goes out like clockwork every 100K or so I'm keen to try a simpler fix. Already have AC vacuum pump, gauges, etc. from my 4Runner's AC retrofit to R134a.

According to Joanne Marcil, creator and co-chair of Brookwood's flea market project, Brookwood subdivision earned more than $11,800 at the Brookwood Make A Difference Day Flea Market held on Friday, Oct. 23, and Saturday, Oct. 24.
"Proceeds from the event are being donated to the Baldwin Soup Kitchen in Pontiac, Mich.; the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Michigan Chapter; Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International; Paint a Miracle; and The Women's Fund of the Community Foundation of Greater Rochester," says Marcil. She adds, "Even though the weather tried to put a damper on our first-ever Four-Hour Fun Sale on Friday, it didn't stop the shoppers from coming out to support us. We were pleasantly surprised by the great turnout for our early bird sale. Our best estimate is that about 160 people braved the rain on Friday, with many standing in line waiting for the doors to open at 4 p.m.! The weather improved on Saturday, and we had another great turnout of buyers anxious to find that special bargain and contribute to a worthy cause. Combining the proceeds of both days, we earned more than $11,800 at this year's Brookwood Make A Difference Day Flea Market!!!"
Marcil continues, "Year after year, we are deeply touched by the overwhelming generosity of the Brookwood community, our volunteers, our friends, family, our local business supporters, sponsors and the people from the surrounding area who come out to shop at the flea market."
Trish Kangas, co-chair of the project, notes, "I want to extend special thanks to the members of Boy Scout Troop 101 based in Rochester Hills who helped us move items into the clubhouse on Oct. 20 and to the students from the Rochester High School National Honor Society, the Rochester High School Key Club, the Rochester Adams High School Key Club, and the Rochester Adams National Honor Society who helped us during the set up and with move out and clean up on Oct. 24. We greatly appreciate their hard work and support. It's heartwarming to see these young people come out and work so hard to give us a hand."
Treasures for sale included new and gently used household items, clothing, jewelry, baby items, purses, books, hardware and tools, golf equipment, sporting goods, small furniture, toys, games and many other items.
Mark your calendar for next year's Make A Difference Day on Oct. 23, 2010.

With school getting into full swing, stress may increase in homes across the area. The S.C. Psychological Association suggests these healthy stress management habits at home:
Get moving! Exercise is a natural stress reliever and increases
the production of good neurotransmitters called endorphins. Have
your children devote at least an hour per day to physical fitness
and reinforce to them that everyone needs exercise to keep
Take a balanced approach to food. Avoid too many sweets and use home meal time and family outings as opportunities to teach your kids how to make balanced and healthy food choices.
Get good sleep. According to the Mayo Clinic, school-aged children should get 10 to 11 hours of sleep per night. A lack of sleep can negatively affect children's mood and behavior and their physical health.
Don't overwhelm kids with extracurricular activities. Be mindful of your children's after school activities and notice how these affect their schoolwork and relationships with family, friends and teachers. Try to properly balance their after-school activities and your own commitments to reduce stress.
Communicate regularly with your kids. Talking to friends and family about problems is a healthy stress management tool. Children can manage stress in the same way, and having open dialogue with your children is important to a healthy home. Try to make the dinner table an "electronics free zone" and engage in conversations with your children about their day.

"The team has been working very hard to incorporate the newcomers into the offense. The freshmen have done a solid job of acclimating themselves to the system and familiarizing themselves with returning players. We are very fortunate to have an experienced team returning from last season, with four starters that are familiar with our concept. That will be very beneficial in the early stages of the season as we make these adjustments with the freshman class."

I'm buying my toilet tomorrow. I have a couple of final questions.
Is there any data as to whether people are happier with the single flush Toto's vs the dual flush- or vice versa?
The Drake II is very close in price to the Eco Drake with Sanifloss at my local store. Given that would it be better to go with the Drake 2?
And does the Drake 2 work as well with low water pressure in an old home?

Matthew Shay, the president and CEO of the National Retail Federation, accused banks of being responsible for the recent data breaches at Target, Neiman Marcus and other retailers in a letter sent to Congressional leaders yesterday. Shay claimed that banks had been delaying the migration to EMV chip-and-PIN cards while issuing less secure magnetic stripe cards, leaving customers' card data vulnerable to hackers.
For years, banks have continued to issue fraud-prone magnetic stripe cards to U.S. customers, putting sensitive financial information at risk while simultaneously touting the security benefits of next generation "PIN and Chip" card technlogy for customers in Europe and dozens of other markets.
This assertion didn't go over so well with banks. The ICBA retaliated yesterday in a public statement, alleging negligence on the part of several retailers that have suffered data breaches in recent years.
Nearly every retailer security breach in recent memory has revealed some violation of industry security agreements. In some cases, retailers haven't even had technology in place to alert them to the breach intrusion, and third parties, like banks, have had to notify the retailers that their information has been compromised.
The ICBA statement goes on to note, rightly, that chip-and-PIN cards wouldn't have prevented the breach last month that exposed the cardholder data of more than 70 million customers over 19 days. Chip-and PIN help protect against card-present fraud like skimming, but do nothing against card-not-present crimes like the malware attack against Target, Julie Conroy, a senior analyst at Aite Group, said in a PaymentSource story published earlier this week regarding the attacks. Target could have adopted tokenization for its online transactions to prevent the attack, Conroy added.
For More on the Target Breach, Check Out:[ Will Target Data Breach Speed EMV Adoption in US?]
The ICBA urged Congress in its statement to "ensure that parties that suffer a data breach are required to bear for fraud losses and restitution to affected parties." It also asked for a national standard on data security breaches to replace the differing state laws that are in place.
In addition to calling for the faster adoption of EMV, the National Retail Federation's letter to Congress also asked for a national standard for breach notification and the passage of a Federal cyber security law.
Even though the retailer association may be throwing up some smoke and mirrors by focusing on EMV as the answer, both sides have sensible recommendations for better consumer fraud protection. It's just a question of who is going to step up and pay for the necessary upgrades and changes. The NRF's letter asked banks to "lead" the adoption of chip-and-PIN in the U.S. The issue around EMV has always been the cost, which nobody wants to shoulder. And that doesn't excuse the retailers from better securing their own payments infrastructure through online tokenization, better systems monitoring and other options that are available without EMV.
In an earnings call last week JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon responded to a question about the Target breach by saying that it could "be a chance for retailers and banks to for once work together as opposed to sue to each other like we've been doing." Looks like the opportunity is being squandered.

It's the spring of 2015, and the car rental workers at John Wayne Airport in Orange County are reporting that visitors from Pittsburgh, Kansas City, New York, Tampa, Boston and Atlanta have been making strange requests.
Instead of the usual, "How do you get to Disneyland?" they're asking, "How do you get to Aliso Niguel High?"
Call it the Kyle Molnar effect.
Over the next three baseball seasons, the 6-foot-3 right-hander has a chance to become a pitcher who thrills scouts, excites fans and fires up opponents hoping to test themselves against the best.
He was clocked throwing a 92-mph fastball as a 15-year-old during the summer. That kind of velocity for someone so young sets bells to ringing and identifies him as a player to watch. But what figures to make him successful immediately on the high school level is his ability to throw strikes.
He was 5-3 last season as a freshman pitcher for Aliso Niguel, which lost in the Southern Section Division 2 championship game at Dodger Stadium in 10 innings to Garden Grove Pacifica. Molnar came on to pitch in the 10th and gave up the game-winning hit when a curveball didn't break as well as he had hoped.
That Coach Craig Hanson called on him in such a pressure-filled situation provides insight into Molnar's makeup.
"He does have that calm, cool, collected demeanor about him," Hanson said. "Hopefully he can just focus on pitching and not worry about the people in the stands to watch him."
Molnar's transition to varsity baseball was made easier in that his older brother, Matt, was a standout senior pitcher and hitter last season for Aliso Niguel, allowing him to lie low and learn from his big brother, who's now at Chapman.
"It was a lot of fun," Molnar said. "I wondered how we would work together on the same team. It turned out well."
During the off-season, Molnar worked on improving his strength, and that helped add velocity to his fastball. He was throwing consistently in the high 80s last season.
He also plays basketball, demonstrating his athletic ability.
Molnar has terrific mechanics and a delivery that Hanson describes as "effortless." Molnar also seems to understand that location and not velocity is the secret to getting batters out.
"You definitely have to hit your spots every time," he said. "You have to know the batter, and your mechanics have to be spot on, and it doesn't really matter how hard you throw. It's where you put the ball."
When Molnar pitches, he's sure to have the support of a loyal following of family members, particularly his grandparents. His grandmother and grandfather from his mother's side moved to Orange County and come to almost every one of his baseball and basketball games. His grandmother from his father's side lives in the San Fernando Valley and also makes trips to support him.
While attending a couple of showcases last summer and fall, Molnar began to understand what happens when people learn you can throw a fastball 90 mph. While in Jupiter, Fla., he was asked to sign his first autographs.
"I was very shocked," he said. "It made me feel famous for a couple of seconds."
So get ready for a steady caravan of cars heading south on the 5 Freeway, exiting on Aliso Parkway, turning right and stopping at the local high school that Molnar calls home and baseball scouts will soon learn is the place to visit.

Seek to amass not miles, but experiences. Happy is the cyclist who rides throughout the year, taking what comes his way in weather, choosing only his itinerary. At the end of the year he will scoff at the poor soul who puts his mount in cotton wool for the winter, for he will recall the pageantry of an autumn forest, the sparkling winter morning, the ecstasy of spring, and the lazy afternoon of summer. He will rejoice in the tussle with the March wind and the comradeship of his fellows round the winter fireside before the battle to reach home. ~ James Arnold 1910 - 1999.

Climate change, also known by many as global warming is considered a more modern phenomenon that is a result of the lifestyle we lead today.
The Environmental Protection Agency of the United States is perhaps the most active established organization in the fight against global warming. but what is global warming and how does it affect us now and more importantly, how will if effect our children and grand children and our planet far into the future?
According to Wikipedia, Climate change " is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions, or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions (i.e., more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions. Certain human activities have also been identified as significant causes of recent climate change, often referred to as "global warming". -source, wikipedia.
The Environmental Protection Agency is active in not only tracking the changes in the weather over periods of time but they are also very much involved in making government regulations to help control the impact that we as human beings have on the environment.
The EPA believes that the emissions from vehicles, factories, and power plants have an impact on global warming and that it is our modern way of life style, which spews chemicals and gas emissions into the air that could be causing the phenomen referred to as Global warming.
The EPA seeks not only to prove this theory, that we as humans could significantly effect the temperature of the earth over time and thus negatively impact the environments and natural habitats of thousands of creatures on the earth.
The theory is that this impact could cause many negative effects to the creatures upon the earth even to cause extinction and the melting of ice caps and the warming of oceans.
Weather this theory is true or not of course has yet to be proven but the EPA will not wait to prove this theory, they are actively engaged in protecting our environment from factories, power plants, and other sources of human produced pollutants that they believe could negatively impact climate change in the future.
The Environmental Protection Agency not only seeks to regulate and reduce the pollutants that could cause global warming but they also seek to help different regions around the country to adapt to the impact that climate change will have on the different regions.

Ok so next year...
There is a lot of talk about Fox being gone. Obviously Bill Cowher is on the list of likely candidates. I was just talking to the guy I work with and if that was to happen it is likely Meeks will be gone and we will switch to a 3-4 defense. I then started thinking of all the smaller fast D-Lineman we have that would be AWESOME as outside Linebackers in a 3-4. I actually think the personnel we have could play really well, the only thing we need would be a BIG nose tackle to plug the middle.
|Administrator has disabled public posting
Re: Ok so next year...
The 3-4 defense is the steelers by tradition, I'm not sure if thats what Cowher would want. I like the 4-3 because you use the same 4 down linemen in the 4-3, nickle and dime defense also. If Cowher do want to go 3-4 then what happens to most of our de's? They are way too small and if you make them olb's then what about Anderson and Thomas? And can any of our de's cover?
Everybody's godzilla until kingkong comes in
|Administrator has disabled public posting
Re: Ok so next year...
Well look at Hardy and Brown. They are pass rushers and some would say undersized DE's. But yeah I see what you mean. I just heard Cowher would not go to Dallas because he wants full control, and he is far more likely to get that action at Carolina. I like Meeks and his scheme so I am not sold on the 3-4, I just though we have some undersized pass rushers that would be good in the 3-4.

A Tumblr blogger's "Rant about Mexicans."
Hey, Tumblr community, meet one of your neighbors…They come into our country and take over our language. ESL? English is a SECOND language? Hell no. English is the FIRST language of America. If American's went to Mexico, they would throw a pissy fit if we tried taking over Spanish with English. Why would we let you guys into our free country just so you can fuck it up again? America is full of dumb bitches being fucked up the ass. Some free country, I can't even voice my own opinion at my school without being threatened to "get jumped". Go to LA, those are real gangs. Not pussy ones in Salem, Oregon. Don't get me wrong, not all Mexicans are like this. The majority of them are, though. I don't care if you call me racist because everyone knows I am. I give props to the smart Mexicans, the non-"gang-bangers", and so on, too, though. I'm fine if you speak it at your house or something but you shouldn't be speaking it because you don't know English. K. Have common sense.
Don't get me wrong, I definitely don't think Americans are any better. Take a look at this post for instance, it's so horrible, intolerant, and racist. Every race has their flaw, no matter what.
You know it's going to be good when a post it titled "rant about Mexicans."
Another gross phenomenon besides the "I'm not racist but…" - the young, proud racist white girl. They're all over Tumblr.

Whatever else you do in a motocross race—hang on! Being comfortable with your grips can have a major effect on maintaining control over the bike while clutching, braking and twisting the throttle (not to mention staying in contact with the bike through thick and thin). For every motocross racer, grips are an important part of his setup, and they are chosen based on personal preference. Taste dictates the perfect grip. It trumps durability, waffle pattern or rubber density. With the multitude of grips available on the market, the MXA wrecking crew thought it would be helpful to scrutinize the different characteristics of many popular grips. We wielded our micrometers and magnifying glasses like scalpels. Here's what we found out.
Length: The portion of the grip that readily accommodates the hand (measured in millimeters). The longest grip was the Scott, and the shortest grips were the Pro Grip and Moose.
Diameter: How fat the grips are (measured at the base of the gripping portion). The diameter of the grips to the top of the waffle pattern or nubs is included in parenthesis.
Hardness: We rated them subjectively as extra soft, soft, medium soft, medium, medium hard or hard.
Wire grooves: The more safety wire grooves, the better in our book.
Pattern: What type of raised protrusions does the grip have? Raised rectangles (waffles), diamonds, etc.
Compounds/materials: Single-compound grips use one density. Hard grips are durable, but rough on hands. Soft grips have great tactile feel, but wear out quickly. Multiple-compound grips have softer material for the hands and harder material on the inside and edges for better durability.
Grip/performance: What attributes did testers perceive while racing? Tackiness is perceived friction between the material and hand/glove. How well do they dampen vibration? A gummy feel comes from excess material in the pattern squishing around beneath the hand.
Special features: Unique aspects of the grips.
Options: Most grip companies have many different models. Within the same basic model of grip, however, different patterns and other options may be available.
RENTHAL KEVLARLength: 97mm.Diameter: 21mm (21.5mm around waffles).Hardness: Medium/soft.Wire grooves: Two.Pattern: Half waffle with raised diamonds.Compounds/materials: Dual-compound. Medium base for durability and soft palm (made from DuPont Kevlar-brand resin particles).Grip/performance: High tackiness and moderate vibration damping. The shallow waffle pattern keeps the grip from feeling too fat or gummy.Special features: The optional tapered version of the grip has a larger diameter around the thumb for better ergonomics.Options: Half waffle (no raised diamonds) and tapered (larger around the thumb) models are available.Colors: Natural rubber color.Price: $19.95.Web: www.renthal.com
PRO GRIP 788 TRIPLE-DENSITYLength: 96mm.Diameter: 20mm (20mm around minimal pattern).Hardness: Hard/medium/soft.Wire grooves: None.Pattern: Tiny raised diamonds.Compounds/materials: Triple-compound. Hard inner sleeve, medium flange and tip with a soft palm. Grip/performance: High tackiness and good vibration damping for a notably slim-feeling grip.Special features: Unique triple-density construction puts the right material where it's needed.Options: Waffle and reverse waffle patterns are available in triple density compounds.Colors: Black with grey and red, blue, yellow, green or orange (the same colors reversed).Price: $18.00.Web: www.progrip.com

Medium tip, medium soft base and flanges, and soft palm.Grip/performance: High tackiness, good vibration damping and a fat feel (Pro Taper makes a thinner version called the Pillow Top Lite).Special features: Hard tip helps prevent tears in crashes.Options: A Pillow Top Lite (with shorter pillows for slimmer grips) version is available.Colors: Grey with black and red, blue yellow, green, orange, black or white, and solid black.Price: $12.95.Web: www.protaper.com
SUNLINE HALF-WAFFLELength: 97mm.Diameter: 20mm (21mm around waffles).Hardness: Medium/medium soft.Wire grooves: Three.Pattern: Half waffle with tiny raised diamonds.Compounds/materials: Dual-compound.

Medium vibration damping.Special features: Sunline grips come with grip donuts, safety wire, throttle side mud foam and grip glue.Options: Half waffle and Double Diamond (no waffle, single- and dual-compound).Colors: Black/grey, grey/white, gum/natural. Price: $19.95.Web: www.sixsixone.com

Medium thermoplastic base and flange with medium soft compound on the palm.Grip/performance: Firm, close to stock feeling waffles with good vibration damping through the gel pad.Special features: Soft gel palm pad increases vibration damping while allowing for firmer waffles.Options: Also available in half-waffle and full-waffle single-compound.Colors: Black with blue, grey, green, orange, red or yellow gel pads.Price: $19.95.Web: www.smithoptics.com
A'ME WAFFLELength: 98mm.Diameter: 20mm (21mm around waffles).Hardness: Extra soft.Wire grooves: One.Pattern: Half waffle.Compounds/materials: Single-compound. Uses A'me's trademarked extra-soft Vulcathane rubber.Grip/performance: High tackiness, good vibration damping, very soft feeling and only moderately gummy. The soft A'me resists wear, but tears easier than a hard grip.Special features: The very end of the grip tapers outward for ergonomics and better wear on the knob end.Options: Full waffle also available.Colors: Black, grey, blue, red, orange, green or yellow (all solid colors).Price: $9.95.Web: www.amegrips.com
SCOTT COMP IILength: 100mm.Diameter: 18mm (20mm around waffles).Hardness: Medium/medium soft.Wire grooves: One.Pattern: Unique half waffle.Compounds/materials: Dual-compound.

Low vibration damping. Medium tackiness, but the clutch side grip feels firmer than the rubber density because it is thinner due to the internal sleeves.Special features: Grips install without wire or glue. Throttle tube and Allen wrenches for clamp-on grip are included.Options: Universal kit (includes one lock-on and one regular grip for throttle side). Colors: Black or grey.Price: $22.95.Web: www.odigrips.com

The keys to the game are always the same.
-Don't Turn the ball over
-Perimeter defense
-Rebounding/Box out
Everything else will take care of itself.
Keys to the Game
1. Find Ways to Deal with the Pressure
The Clippers are first in the league in steals and second in the NBA in defensive turnover rate. CP3 figures to lead the league again in steals, but his apprentice Eric Bledsoe is just as good at creating turnovers. Paul is averaging 2.8 steals per 36 minutes, while Bledsoe is averaging 2.7. Matt Barnes, Jamal Crawford, and Blake Griffin all average over a steal a game, and when these guys get a steal, they get the ball to CP3 who always makes you pay in transition.
2. Attack the Offensive Glass
The Clippers are 24th in the league in defensive rebound percentage, primarily because DeAndre Jordan only gets 27 minutes per game and when he is off the floor, teams eat the Clippers alive on the boards. When they go small and play Griffin at the five or when they sub Ryan Hollins in, Jason Smith, Ryan Anderson, and Robin Lopez have to make them pay.
3. Attack the Rim
The Hornets play a perimeter game offensively, but that is going to have to change tonight if they have any chance of pulling this one out. You have to make the Clippers pay for gambling and for going small, and the way you do that is by attacking and getting to the line. The Clippers have yielded the 5th most free throw attempts in the league this season, as Ryan Hollins, Lamar Odom, and DeAndre Jordan have been fouling machines. Take it inside on those guys and get as many trips to the line as you can.
The keys to the game are always the same.
-Don't Turn the ball over
-Perimeter defense
-Rebounding/Box out
Everything else will take care of itself.
And the losing streak continues....????....????

#Hornets Eric Gordon arrives at Staples Center to sit w/ team during game vs Clippers. Says no swelling in knee, but no timetable for return
Two players. Two lower extremities. No discomfort of note.
Neither are playing.
Tune in on Fridays at 12 noon for Sport-a-Facts with Ro Brown and Wednesdays at 1pm for Sports Revolution to hear me speak my mind on all things Saints and Pelicans related and more.
Only on WBOK 1230 AM.
Feel free to PM me for more details.
Are any of you watching the Bobcats game? they are losing like 82-29... wow that's embarrassing. They don't deserve the Hornets name back
awwww ****! As long as Blake and CP gets abused im straight.
Maybe if we give them our name, our bad luck with injures will transfer to them.
So the Bobcats just scored 24 points in a single half vs the Thunder.
They're down 86-42 and it's almost the 4th quarter.
and I thought we have been playing bad...
Gotta admit, the white n blacks have grown on me.
Man i wish we had Gerald Wallace.
on a sidenote it looks like Jay Z got fatter and Beyonce got hotter?
Carmelo and Tyson are doing their thing but they haven't gotten much from anyone else tonite. Rasheed and Felton have been doing their best to chuck the Knicks out of the game.
Damn Monty really said that. I wonder who he was taking about

Best Italian food in Reno. – We always go to La Strata. The food is very good. The service is very good. Unbelievable food I have ever tasted.
WSJDJ – I went to La Strada while in Reno on a business trip. I have eaten at many Italian restaurants around the country and in Italy, but this was the best one off all! Great food and great service. I am planning a return trip with my wife just so she can experience it.
Good Stuff – Great wine list that rivals any in NV. Good food, decent ambiance. Well worth the trip from Tahoe. Just make sure the waiter gives you the right vintage!
It's The Little Things. – You gotta love a waitress that calls you "hon" and leaves a carafe of coffee on the table. Get there during off hours, or you'll have to wait in a looooooong line!
fabulous Italian! – Be sure to try the mushroom ravioli -- unbelievably light and delicious! Also a good wine list, and great staff.

Historical Hebrew Manuscripts
Norman Golb
The Dead Sea Scrolls include relatively few documentary texts of historical character, notable exceptions being some ancient calendars as well as the Copper Scroll with its rich information on the hiding of the Temple treasures and of texts stemming from ancient Jerusalem libraries.1 Virtually all of the other scrolls are hand copies of imaginative literary texts from which judgments and inferences of a historical character have to be laboriously squeezed out, sometimes as water from a rock. What is more, for all their vast importance, the scrolls constitute in their totality but a small proportion of the Hebrew manuscripts composed and/or copied before the age of printing. Leaving aside the thousands of literary texts composed and copied after the period of the scrolls until the fifteenth century, there are at least 25,000 autograph documentary leaves casting direct light on many aspects of the history of the Jews, as well as aspects of general history, now available to scholars. With the exception of the Bar Kokhbah texts (second century a.d.) and the Byzantine Hebrew papyri, almost all of these documents are from the Cairo Genizah and date mainly from the tenth through the thirteenth century. The vast majority of these documentary texts--now in Cambridge, Oxford, the British Museum, St. Petersburg, and elsewhere--all stem from the ancient "Synagogue of the Palestinians" of FusøOmegaø-Mioer (the so-called Old Cairo, just to the south of Cairo itself) and concern mostly events that transpired in Egypt and other Near and Middle Eastern countries, but some are from the far corners of medieval Europe.
These latter documents are among the most precious of the Genizah fragments, providing unusual glimpses into otherwise unrecorded aspects of history, often with implications for the Near Eastern history itself: witness for example the tenth-century document from Kiev, the only known autograph of the Khazarian Jews, which has, among other things, had the effect of authenticating the valuable correspondence of Hasdai ibn Shaprut (major domo in the court of the tenth-century Caliph 'Abd al-Rahman III of Cordova) with King Joseph of the Khazars (see Khazarian Hebrew Documents of the Tenth Century , by N. Golb and O. Pritsak [Cornell University Press, 1982], to appear next year in Russian translation). Genizah documents pertaining to the First and Second Crusades are also in the latter category.
Perhaps the most unusual Genizah text I have yet encountered is a long epistle on parchment describing the vicissitudes of a Jew of early eleventh-century Rouen. From Merovingian times until the late thirteenth century the Gallic city of Rothomagus was designated simply as Rothom or Rodom (before its permutation into Rouen), and it is this latter orthography (Hebrew ) that appears in the Genizah parchment. The importance of this reading led me, over many years, to search out this term in the oldest Hebrew manuscripts of French and Normannic origin, and in the wake of the discovery of more than twenty-five occurrences of the term in cultural, political and social contexts, to an investigation of the toponymy of Normandy and the consequent identification of more than eighty Streets of the Jews (Rues aux Juifs) in that region (for full particulars, see The Jews of Medieval Normandy , by N. Golb [Cambridge University Press, 1997]). On the basis of quite precise evidence, it is now clear that many if not most of these streets and bordering land-areas (in Latin: Vicus Judaeorum ) originated in the period of Roman colonization of Gaul. The implications of this finding are explored in my forthcoming volume on the subject.
