The vinyl cutter, I got on eBay. It was a starter kit, less than $500. It's the perfect entry into computer-aided design. You allow kids to really come up with their own ideas. You can make stickers, banners, anything you can type or design on a computer. We've made banners for a dance and career day rather than outsource. It's saving money.
The laser cutter is probably the most versatile. It can engrave, cut, make different, cool 3-D things, make 3-D cardboard models. The 3-D printer is probably the most sexy. It's getting all the press. It's a longer journey to be able to design your own things. It's got the glamour, but more sizzle than steak at this point. But it's really cool.
CNN: Did you manage to get a diverse cross-section of the school in the class?
Shea: When I was walking around trying to sell it, I wanted to make sure it wasn't just a room full of geeky boys. I was asking girls in my geometry class, "Could we do this kind of stuff, but make it cooler? What kind of stuff would you want to make?" They were like, "Duh, girls like this stuff, too."
Our percentage of girls this year is lower -- a little less gender-distributed, but certainly the academic levels are varied. It's interesting to see how they intermingle. It's rare to have a class of a mix of ages and abilities. I really do think the kids at both ends get something out of having their hands on something, rather than all-theory or a complete void.
CNN: How does it change the way students are learning?
Shea: It's the kids who came in with no experience, no background, no skills who get that sense of accomplishment. Without fail, nothing works the first time. It's something we don't get enough opportunity to do. In most classes, we have to move on, you either get it or you don't. Failure is a judgment rather than part of the process. In math, kids come in convinced, or someone has convinced them, they can't do something. We don't take the time to go back and make that failure a reflective process.
"You failed? That's great, what did you learn?"After you get those little moments of success, "That's great - remember how bad you felt yesterday, after three days of putting the thing together, flipping the switch and it didn't work? It's not over."
That's more like real life, rather than school.
CNN: What advice would you give to other schools and teachers that want to start their own maker spaces?

Pinole's small community theater becomes a steaming, fiery cauldron of raw emotion as the 2010 Pulitzer Prize winner unfolds on the tiny stage.
Director Brian Katz was convinced that the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical about bipolar disorder would work in an intimate theater, and he proved himself correct with the production that plays at the Pinole Community Playhouse through Feb. 16.
No matter the weather outside, audiences will swelter before this blistering furnace of a family trying to cope with a bipolar mother, Diana (Lisa Maria Newton), who is trying to deal with the alternate universe in which she so often lives.
By experiencing the story in such a small space, the audience can't help but
get caught up in the unfolding drama. This not only makes the show a bracing piece of theater, but an emotionally engaging slice of life.And, yep, it is a musical, a rock musical at that. And it has a remarkably tuneful score and wonderful lyrics that are both catchy and help move the plot along. The score moves from country rock to something close to power ballads as it surveys the inner and outer turmoil of the family's life.
The show is played on a simple set consisting of a couple of risers, a few pieces of furniture and a lot of imagination by set designer Fernando Ochoa.
Yet, this is hardly a minimalistic production, thanks both to Katz's direction and amazingly realized characters created by the actors.
Diana's long-suffering husband, Henry (Michael Scott-Wells), is something of a case study in his own right. At first blush, he appears to be super-dad, thriving and flourishing no matter how bad things get. But it's not really like that, and Scott-Wells creates a complex and memorable character.
Rounding out the family is youngest daughter Natalie (Nicolina Akraboff), sweet 16 and working at being in advanced-placement everything. She is a super-achiever who is doing it all, just to be noticed through all the family clutter. She creates a fine character teetering between innocence and guile. She eventually goes off with a new boyfriend (Alex Bonte), a pothead with a slightly more lax look at life.
Through it all, this is a show with a whole lot of heart, and much to say, not only about mental illness, but the nature of families and human relationships.
Contact Pat Craig at email@example.com.
By Brian Yorkey and Tom Kitt, presented by Pinole Community Players
Through: Feb. 16
Where: Pinole Community Playhouse, 601 Tennent Ave. , Pinole
Running time: 2 hours
Tickets: $20-$23; 510-724-9844, www.pinoleplayers.org

Tara: Thank you sweetie ♥ I can't wait to do a happy dance for you too! I'm praying really hard that you're ready to trigger Mon and get that IUI done :) OMG, it's so amazing to see those 3 BFP's on the list, let's keep up the momentum!
Nicole congrats on your bfp! I am so happy for you!
Thank you Simone ♥ Now it's your turn, FX'd ;)
Nicole You're very welcome! I can't wait to see if you have 2 beans.
AFM I think I am out! I will test Monday, though, but with this illness it would take a miracle for the baby to have stuck if one was concieved!
Congrats Nicole!!! :)
Tara: How do you determine an actual date to test?
Oh and tomorrow I'll be going to the doctor because I've had a high body temp the last three days and a bad case of the headaches. So if nothing comes up tomorrow, I'll be sure to let you know a date.
Thanks Nicole! This pregnancy was the 1st time I used a digital...it is nice to see the word! And I did probably check the board 15 times today waiting for your news!!
Suzanne- Kinda depends on how long your cycles are and when you think you O'd...Generally around 10-12 dpo. It's up to you though. :)
Then official date, aside from going to a doctor tomorrow for my high temp, will be the 1st of December.
Simone: I know! Even with your illness there's still a possibility, I'm not losing hope for you ♥
Thanks Suzanne :) GL at the doctor tomorrow, I hope they can find out what's going on, headaches especially are no fun when you don't know what's causing them. By high temps do you mean a fever? Lily AnnMarie looks like a fun little girl :)
Gina: So nice! Wow, 15 times! ;)
Whew, what a day!!

Fastest way to detect bacteria?
Posted 05 September 2012 - 06:31 PM
You can sample prep (which may involve growing in a media) followed by staining and visual inspection with a microscope. If growing is involved this can be in the order of days, but if if already grown, staining and visiaul observation might take an hour.
You can maybe attach proteins to a substrate to capture targets which is then observed again. An alternative to observation might be fluroescent detection etc.
You can probably lyse the cells and then perform PCR on it, maybe done in a few hours?
I just dont know, what is the fastest way of detecting bacteria currently being used in labs or in the field?

For the first the best it to growth a small culture (5ml) with SOC medium at 37°C and check with a spectrofotometer if the OD increase after 2-4 hours.
For the second, do as bob1 says. Pick the colony with a 10ul tip, inoculate a LB-agar plate to keep the bacteria and put the rest of the bacteria directly into the PCR mix. The first cycle of the PCR should be at 95°C for 5min to boil the bacteria and release all the protoplasm including the plasmid into the PCR mix. It is really fast (3h) and also very convenient if you have to pick more than 20 colonies to check if they have your plasmid instead to do minis like crazy.

Im wondering if there is a good source of literature for benchmarks or comparisons of procedures in terms of time needed for analysis as well as information correlating the accuracy of the techniques? Perhaps there are even commercial machines and protocols that can accelerate even standard techniques further to yield shorter analysis time or accuracy of results?
I presume the best characterization method is PCR as it can identify strains for which is a capability an antibody test cannot hope to achieve? But then the fastest may simply be antibody binding provided bacteria concentration is high enough (on the other hand low concentration of bacteria or antibody may be limited by diffusion so may end up being slower still)?
Is PCR also not be heavily affected by contamination or purity of the sample than say an antibody test which if contaminated by other samples may also aggregate giving false results? (presumably since PCR is only analyzing for nucleic acids). What about mass spectrometry? Are there techniques that couple mass-spec into the analysis to take advantage of its even better chemical analysis capabilities?

The common PCR for bacterial ribosomal gene can amplify many variants with one pair of primers, but you need to subsequently analyse the product sequence to tell the exact species, sequencing in this case is time consuming and melting methods are less acurate and need optimisation, it's the same with DGGE pr SSCP.
So first you need to know what range of microorganisms you want to detect, what is the required specificity of the method (just "a bacteria", genus, species, strain,...) and required sensitivity of detection and if It's a homogenous sample of microorganisms or a mixed one.
You can hardly have highly sensitive, highly specific and extremely quick method for detecting any existing bacteria on the planet from any sample in any mixture, for example.
I never trust anything that can't be doubted.

If you have money the fastest way should be identification by mass spectrometry.
Automaton for bacterial identification (by mass spectrometry)
and the cheapest is API system.

She has gained popularity for Lorene's Angels, which was the focus of her fundraising efforts during 2011. In fact, this project added $712 to the total collected by volunteers.
This year Lorene is not only selling these angels, but she has expanded her work to include another fundraiser – a night at the movies.
McKenna Shoots for the Stars and SPY Kids will be shown at 7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 11 at West Cinema, 112 West Avenue, Cedartown. Tickets are $8 with $3 of each one sold will be donated to the American Cancer Society.
"I felt this would be something fun for younger people," she said. "My friends are interested and have helped me spread the word."
Advance tickets for the show are available at Sew Purdy and Smith-Lockwood, Rockmart and Bar-L, Rockmart and Cedartown, Pink Sugar and Bradford Pharmacy, Cedartown. These will also be available at the door.
Meanwhile, Lorene continues her fundraising efforts by offering handcrafted angels customized to honor loved ones affected by cancer or thank those caregivers that have made a difference. Plans are to place the angels in a special garden during Relay on May 3.
Lorene became a volunteer after a discussion with her parents, Karen and Mitch Parker. She wanted to do something to honor her paternal grandmother. Lorene Swint Parker lost the battle with leukemia in 1999.
Different colored ribbons are attached to the angels. Purple is for caregivers, gold designates in honor of and silver in memory of an individual.
"We will begin working on the angels after the movie night," she said.
"I want to raise as much money as possible for Relay. We accept minimum donations of $10."
Checks can be made out to the American Cancer Society and mailed to Lorene Parker, 338 Baldwin Road, Rockmart, GA 30153. For more information, call 678-757-0076.
"Lorene is always involved in projects that help others," Mrs. Parker said. "We are there to support her."

An installation created for the E2NY Music and Arts festival. The folks at Red Paper Hart, mapped forests, foxbears and orbs to the speed of the bikes, giving the riders a sense of their speed. Riders face off against friends, enemies and strangers to see who can ride the farthest in 60 seconds. The faster the cyclist, the more environments and creatures they unlock. A lucky few even made it into space, and one guy puked.
Now here's a pretty unique idea, ping pong balls floating in a pool as a projection background. Wish I would have thought of it. :) Nice Job Red Paper Hat!

When Temple was just 3 years old, she landed a contract with Educational Pictures and made her acting debut in a string of low-budget movies dubbed "Baby Burlesques." Temple's mother capitalized on the toddler's natural flair for dancing by enrolling her in dance classes at the age of 3 1/2. Her father became her agent and financial adviser.
The exposure that "Baby Burlesques" afforded Temple led her to a contract with the Fox Film Corporation. When Temple was 6, she appeared in her first Hollywood feature film, Carolina. (When off set, she attended the Lakewood School for Girls.) With Fox, Temple made an additional eight films, including the smash hit Little Miss Marker. The young actress, singer and dancer with the bouncing golden corkscrew curls and infectious optimism proved an overnight sensation and a top earner for the studio.
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt called Temple "Little Miss Miracle" for raising the public's morale during times of economic hardship, even going so far as to say that, "as long as our country has Shirley Temple, we will be all right." Temple's song-and-dance routine to the tune "On the Good Ship Lollipop" in 1934's Bright Eyes earned her a special Academy Award for "Outstanding Personality of 1934." By 1940, Temple had 43 films under her belt.
Grown-Up Actress
When Temple began to mature, her popularity with audiences waned. As an adolescent, she appeared in The Blue Bird (1940), which performed poorly at the box office. At 19, she co-starred as Susan Turner in The Bachelor and the Bobby Soxer with Cary Grant and Myrna Loy. Although the film received critical praise, audiences struggled to accept that their "Little Miss Miracle" was growing up.
Following her 1948 appearance opposite John Wayne in Fort Apache, Temple found it increasingly difficult to land major roles. During the 1950s and early 1960s, she made scattered appearances on the small screen, but her career as a popular film star had ended at an earlier age than most entertainers' had begun.
Personal Life
Temple married actor John Agar Jr. in 1945. The marriage ended in divorce in 1949, but yielded one child, a daughter named Linda Susan. In 1950, Temple remarried to California businessman Charles Alden Black and add her husband's last name after hers, becoming Shirley Temple Black. The couple had two children: a son named Charles, and a daughter named Lori. Shirley and the elder Charles would remain married until his death from complications of a bone-marrow disease in 2005.

Actors Turned Politicians
Lot of actors play politicians on the big and small screens, but few have made the transition in real life. At every level of government, there are actors who have used their charisma, good looks, and personalities to get the policies they support enacted. Though Hollywood has a reputation as a city of liberals, many conservative actors have been members of the Republican party. From Ronald Reagan to Sonny Bono, here's a look at famous actors who went on to careers in politics.

Policymakers and advocates in New Jersey are calling on Governor Chris Christie to return $65 million he diverted from a carbon-trading fund designed to help the state's ratepayers reduce their energy bills. After announcing last Thursday that he was pulling his state out of the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI), calling the program a "tax" and a "failure," Christie has shown no intentions of giving back the tens of millions of dollars he took from the fund to help close a budget gap.
Last year, Governor Christie raided a RGGI fund set aside for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects that brings back $3 to $4 in value to ratepayers for every $1 invested. Now, some members of the New Jersey assembly are calling on Christie to return those "taxes" to the businesses and homeowners who benefit from those investments.

This collection features 13 of the best radio performances by one of America's most beloved stars.
An old broad that enjoys books of all types. Would rather read than write reviews though. I know what I like, and won't be bothered by crap.
"A few gems in here."
1. Gotta get me a horse
This first story was a war comedy about a cowboy getting in the Navy and taking his saddle with him, hoping for a horse somehow. He finally gets his wish when a sickly colt is found on a South Seas Island. He raises the colt and sends it home with a circus that was visiting them. Charming Jimmy Stewart.
2. Destry Rides again
The radio show of the Western movie with Jimmy playing the new Sheriff and Joan Blondell playing the Marlene Dietrich part of Frenchie, the bar maid with a heart of gold. Well done.
3. Madame X
The movie version I know is with Lana Turner. This one is with Jimmy as the son and Ann Rutherford his mother. This story is about a woman who abandons her husband and son. The husband refuses to give her a divorce because he wants to be a judge some day. He also refuses to let her see her son, even when he almost dies as a child. She becomes a singer and is blackmailed by a man who discovers her true identity. She kills him in order to protect her son. Jimmy is assigned her as his first case as a lawyer.
4. Magic Town
This was a lame Jane Wyman and Jimmy Stewart story about a town with the exact demographics for a polling service.
5. Moon's our home
Carole Lombard and Jimmy Stewart make a wonderful couple who pretend to be someone else. Jimmy is an author and Carole a movie star. Once they realize who they really are will their marriage last?
6. No Highway in the Sky
A story of a scientist who figures out the life of an airplane which no one will accept his analysis as he tries to prevent a crash. Not much fun.
7. The Stratton Story
Like the movie version. June Allyson plays his wife. This is the story of a farm boy who becomes a baseball pitcher until he loses his leg in a hunting accident. His return to baseball is inspirational. Based on a true story.
8. Single Crossing
Myrna Loy plays Jimmy's foil in this comedy. William Powell was supposed to do the part but was ill and Jimmy filled in. This is the story of mistaken identity on a ship to Hawaii. Very cute and clever.
9. Calling Northside 777
Like the movie, Jimmy plays a reporter who tries to prove an inmate's innocence. Based on a true story.
10. Suspense: Consequence
Unusual story of a Doctor in a loveless marriage who when a fire gives him an opportunity to escape his life, he takes it. His wife happens upon him and refuses to let him be so he plans to kill her. What happens next is great.
11. Suspense: Mission Completed
This story was on the Pearl Harbor Anniversary and is about a man who survived a prisoner of war camp but can no longer move anything but his eyes. When he sees the guard who tortured him in the hospital flower shop, he begins to get his strength back in an attempt to kill his tormentor. Great twist at the end.
12. Tailored by Toni
Another story with Carole Lombard as the designer wife and Jimmy as a playwright. This one is cute but dated as Jimmy goes astray with an actress and Carole fixes things by staying home and keeping house.
13. The Silver Whistle
The story of a man who is not who he seems that helps the old folks into feeling better and younger about their lives. Not the greatest.
This collection is worth the small cost if you enjoy radio plays. Nostalgia at it's best.
There were some stutters on the tape, but for the most part I had no trouble hearing it.
"Unable to Hear"
I couldn't hear it while driving because the voices are not loud enough.
YES ! But I need to be able to hear it.

RIP Blake Fomby... You will be missed... Love you brother. Hope they keep the roof open at Cowboys Stadium so you can still watch them from up there...
(I'm a PSU fan. I love O'Brien to death. He has done a remarkable job at PSU. I hope he stays at PSU as long as possible, but if he does leave for the NFL, I hope it's for the 'Skins)
I agree, I am a Penn state fan also and can't believe the job he has done under the circumstances he has had to deal with. Maybe he would be the type of person that could come to DC and right this ship.
Chip Kelly will get RG3 killed.
GM:Morocco Brown
Headcoach: Vic Fangio
On a different topic, what is with Shanahan hiring ex-NFL wide receivers as wide receiver coaches. First Keenan McCardell and then he fired him and hired Ike Hilliard. Our WR have sucked since Terry Robiskie got all that he could out of Westbrook and Connell.
Anyone know if O'Brien has any interest in returning to the NFL? He's doing a great job at PSU.

"It was like he was Jason on 'Friday the 13th' -- man just wouldn't go down," - Honolulu bar patron on Trent Williams being tasered and smashed over the head with a champagne bottle.
If Danny boy were to fire Shanahan this season or off-season I think I would have to swear off the Redskins until he sells the team.
It would be moronic to fire Shanahan for his record with a team as undermanned as this one.
Shanahan isn't the problem. Years of mis-management and overspending by other administrations and the death of the one real superstar player we had before RG3, compounded by our off season gamble and salary cap "punishment" and an incredible string of injuries is.

Titanic Auction Calls for a Gigantic Bankroll
BOSTON (MainStreet) -- It's the ultimate luxury item: A 5,500-piece collection of artifacts recovered from the Titanic -- and you can buy it all for around $200 million at auction this spring on the 100th anniversary of the ship's sinking.
"We have determined that the time has come for us to transfer ownership of this collection to a steward who is able to continue our efforts and will preserve and honor
A 17-ton piece of the Titanic's hull is among items going up for auction this spring, but don't expect to just pick up this single piece for your front yard. The entire lot of salvaged artifacts is to be sold together for an estimated $189 million. |
That's the 100th anniversary of the day Titanic sank some 400 miles off of the Canadian coast after striking an iceberg during its maiden voyage from Britain to America.
Billed as unsinkable, the luxury liner didn't carry enough lifeboats for everyone, and two-thirds of its 2,200 passengers and crew -- including super-wealthy ticket holders such as John Jacob Astor IV and Benjamin Guggenheim -- perished.
Titanic memorabilia has been a hot seller ever since, with companies bringing out items such as commemorative postcards within days of the disaster.
"The stunning news of its sinking shook the world, resulting in countless books and magazine articles revealing endless 'mini-sagas' about the lives of the passengers on board," said Arlan Ettinger of Guernsey's, which is conducting the auction. "On a personal level, my 12-year-old son seems as fascinated by the Titanic as my father was before me. The saga just seems to go on and on."
Gary Robinson, one of about two-dozen major Titanic collectors, said the 1997 film Titanic -- which won 11 Academy awards and grossed a then-record $1.8 billion worldwide -- took interest in the disaster to a whole new level.

Demarche, on February 23rd 2008, 03:24 PM, said:
The game freezes after the first splash screen (MacPlay), before the second appears (AvP2). After that come several AVI movies (Fox, Lithtec, etc) that can be bypassed in Tiger by renaming / deleting the MOVIE folder inside the DATA folder. Renaming this folder did not fix the crash problem in Leopard - I'd been hoping the problem was simply with the AVIs.
I also tried setting preferences on my saved game so that double-clicking on it directly started AVP2 - worked in Tiger, but again, same freeze in Leopard.
Burning a CD with the same name as CD1 (Aliens vs. Predator 2) but only an MP3 on it resulted in a "please insert the AVP2 CD" screen.
Trying to start with CD2 in the drive makes the game ask for CD1.
More random hackery to come.
Please keep us apprised; this is one of my favorite games when it works.

Coach Bill O'Brien made the announcement Monday. The team's worst fears came true after Mauti was carted off the field during the 45-22 win last week over Indiana.
Mauti's college career came to an early end. The senior leader and emotional anchor for the Nittany Lions was instrumental in helping to keep most of the team together after the NCAA levied landmark sanctions in the offseason for the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
Mauti and fellow senior Michael Zordich made impassioned pleas to stick with the program two days after the penalties were announced. In the end, 10 players transferred, but more than 90 percent of the roster stayed.

Fire safety for the New Year | GUEST COLUMN
December 30, 2012 · Updated 1:40 PM
The holidays are a time for families and friends to get together, but that also means you may be at greater risk for fire. Whether you are getting ready to do some holiday entertaining at home or headed out to ring in the New Year, the State Fire Marshal's Office suggests following these simple tips to ensure a celebration that is both festive and fire-safe:
Home Entertaining
• Test your smoke alarms and tell guests about your home fire escape plan.
• Keep children and pets away from lit candles.
• Keep matches and lighters up high in a locked cabinet.
• Stay in the kitchen when cooking on the stovetop.
• Ask smokers to smoke outside. Provide deep ashtrays and wet cigarette butts with water before discarding.
Nightclubs and Other Public Assembly Buildings
Before you enter
• Is the building in a condition that makes you feel comfortable? Is the main entrance wide and does it open outward to allow easy exit? Is the outside area clear of materials that may block exits?
• Have a communication plan. Identify a relative or friend to contact in case of emergency.
• Pick a meeting place outside to meet family or friends if there is an emergency.
Once inside
• Look for all available exits and be prepared to use the closest one.
• Make sure aisles are wide enough and not obstructed by chairs or furniture. Check to make sure your exit door is not blocked or chained.
• Are there fire sources such as candles burning, cigarettes or cigars burning, pyrotechnics, or other heat sources that may make you feel unsafe? Are there safety systems in place such as alternative exits, fire sprinklers, and smoke alarms?
During an emergency
• If an alarm sounds, you see smoke or fire, or other unusual disturbance, exit the building immediately.
• Once you are out, stay out. Under no circumstances should you ever go back into a burning building. Let trained firefighters conduct rescue operation.
• If you want to ring in the New Year with fireworks, the safest way is to attend a public display conducted by trained professionals.
• If you purchase fireworks, be sure they are legal to possess and discharge. Know the dates and times fireworks are allowed in your community.
• Talk with family members and guests about the fireworks laws for your area. Laws restricting or banning the use of fireworks in cities and counties are listed on the fireworks website at http://www.wsp.wa.gov/fire/docs/fireworks/ordinances.pdf.
• Stay away from illegal explosive devices such as M80's and M100's. These items are not fireworks, they are illegal explosive devices. The damage they cause can be devastating and life altering. Fireworks and alcohol are a dangerous combination.
For more information about fire safety, visit the State Fire Marshal website at www.wsp.wa.gov/fire/firemars.htm.
The Office of the State Fire Marshal is a Bureau of the Washington State Patrol, providing fire and life safety services to the citizens of Washington State including inspections of state licensed facilities, plan review of school construction projects, licensing of fire sprinkler contractors and pyrotechnic operators, and training Washington State's firefighters.

A Newberry man was sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to four armed robberies
James Ojore Tribble, 20, of 625 Dixie Drive, Newberry, pleaded guilty to four counts of armed robbery and one count of criminal conspiracy on July 30 and was sentenced to 10 years in prison.
Eighth Circuit Solicitor Jerry Peace said on April 20, 2010, Tribble conspired with other co-defendants to enter Robert's Citgo at 1843 Wilson Road, Newberry and rob the store while armed with a pistol.
Tribble also on Dec. 30, 2009, robbed the Citgo Station located at 11339 C.R. Koon Highway.
"Tribble presented a pistol and demanded the cash register drawer and then left the store," said Peace.
On Dec. 28, 2009, he also went into the Lil' Cricket Store located on 1315 Kendall Road, presented a handgun and took cash from the store.
Tribble also robbed a taxi cab driver with a pistol on July 27, 2009.
Peace says the handgun that Tribble used in the robberies turned out to be a BB gun.
Circuit Court Judge George C. James Jr. heard the case last week.

Some by tens of thousands of dollars that's gonna mean a lot higher taxes right now.
Homeowners getting it with the higher bills calling it unconscionable even heartless.
-- City Council is an hour and has some other choice but he joins us now.
On how -- this.
-- this is the convoluted and arcane system of New York city's real property tax -- they allow.
Cap of 6% per year of increases but.
They bank the rest of it so leaving years when their.
Despite the fact that.
Almost every elected officials said this is not the year -- -- these assessment increases in fact a minority leader Jimmie Otto has put in a bill.
And is trying to get the speaker's office to move it forward which would prevent just this sort of tax hike on property some -- These -- on every year counts absolutely every year without fail people would have come to the conclusion earlier last fall there was a bad.
Hurricane and maybe this would not be -- -- to do that may it may be October -- -- this year they would have not figured out that going to you -- the end result would be that a lot of Staten islanders and others were sure looking at higher property bills.
Some of them on property they don't even have -- Set not just that -- -- at -- out of the -- always breezy point and some of those homes substantial devaluations occurred complete wipe -- 120 homes and breezy point alone in my -- out think that through before they sent the mailings out for the department of finance doesn't think a lot of things through they're on a revenue kick and again the city's got to spend 72 billion dollars this year and its next budget -- got to find a way to have that money.
This is one of the ways the -- able to increase its spending each year who polices just that when -- -- You know but mailings go out councilman.
Does anyone did say you know on the optics on this don't look good luck would have hoped the mayor's office would have -- take a look at that.
We will have hearings now with the department of finance over the budget for this next phase of fiscal years you know the -- just -- -- -- he was gonna make even more sick to -- stomach.
Look at the return address to those tax -- it's in New Jersey.
The city of New York outsource is the collection of tax revenues to a place in New Jersey.

You have to have your grievance and by February 15 or won't be considered so you are unable to pay the taxes you have yet another problem with the tax man on top of everything else and we've pushed forward lien sales so if there's a sufficient amount of money in leans on your property for property taxes or for water and sewer bills.
The city can connect to you so why doesn't Mayor Bloomberg does -- -- this is stupid we made a mistake I can't believe he's got moans about the do you use a tournament that.
But did you see this is done.
We'll look the mayor has done a lot of things for hurricane sandy victims and advocating in Washington it's time for an attorney's focus on his own administration insane -- -- Hey have you paid attention to what I did about DC maybe we should be doing the same thing.
Right here in our own backyard aren't it councilman thank you very very much we did get this from a New York City.
Finance department spokesman -- -- told us the valuation of properties in back of my targets Andy is ongoing the final assessment.
-- will be published in late.
May even if this doesn't take away from the students at these assessments prior.
And will mean higher taxes but but we appreciate the statement violence meanwhile.
