|In front of the new KGS, the first battleground of the previous council
I'll be using this blog to elaborate on who I am, my values, what I've done, what I think some of the issues are, and why you should vote for me. I'll also be using this to tell my story of the 2012 council election campaign. It won't be as good as this though, sorry.
I'll keep this post at the top and it will act as an index to links below that I will fill in over the next week or so.
They are:
- Let me introduce myself

In this episode: "Pull my finger" is the new "It's not you -- it's me." How do you tactfully let a lifelong friend know that their sudden weight gain has you worried for their health? Is going to college still worth it? We all do stupid things when we're young -- but they often make for interesting stories we tell our whole lives. What happens when we get older and wiser and feel like our new stories aren't as exciting? When one person in a steady relationship makes a lot more money, why does the other person always get stuck picking up the tab on dates? What should you not talk about on a first date -- especially if you want to ensure a second date? What sore spots in the past may have left you feeling insecure about something? Jordan talks about it in this week's short video. Have any questions, comments, or stories you'd like to share with us? Drop us a line at [email protected]!

The Marble Corridor is a location in Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance (similar to the Marble Gallery from Symphony of the Night). It acts as an early connecting passageway to many other areas of the castle. Here, Juste will meet and have a verbal encounter with Death, who reveals that he doesn't recognize the power responsible for the castle's re-emergence as that of his Master's. Without further explanations, he departs, leaving Juste wondering about what he meant.
The boss of this area is the Giant Bat (Castle A). Fighting it is optional, however, as its room can be avoided by taking the path above, and not defeating it won't have any consequence on the game's story. Still, it's recommended to fight it and be awarded with a considerable amount of EXP, or if the player aims for a 200% map completion rate.

Bottles Burgled
A man was arrested after forcibly entering a commercial establishment and removing items without permission or authority. At 1:35 AM on Tuesday, August 13, a 27-year-old man was observed forcibly entering a commercial establishment on Fulton Street. Around two minutes later, he was seen leaving the location taking items which had not been in his possession upon entering. He fled on bicycle west on John Street. Police searched the area, and the suspect was positively identified. It turns out this was not his first burglary. Items taken were two bottles of wine.

SAN FRANCISCO Tiger Woods and Steve Stricker were perfect as Presidents Cup partners, and they got enough help from everyone else today to put the Americans in position to stay perfect on home soil.
With an improbable rally by Woods in the morning and pure putting by Stricker in the afternoon, they became the first partnership in the Presidents Cup and the first in 30 years of any team competition to go 4-0.
Phil Mickelson had a chance to join them with an undefeated record using different partners. Mickelson and Sean O'Hair each had a birdie putt inside 15 feet on the final hole to scratch out another win, but had to settle for a halve.
The International team walked away from Harding Park the last two days with momentum from keeping close. But as darkness fell across from Lake Merced, the deficit looked daunting with only 12 singles matches remaining Sunday.
The Americans had a 12½-9½ lead. No team has rallied from three points behind on the final day to win the cup outright, and the Americans have lost only one singles session in the seven previous Presidents Cup matches.

County tax rates on real estate, motor vehicles and watercraft, as well as the airport tax, will remain the same for 2017.
After practicing all summer, Washington County volleyball coach John Rogers and his Commanderette team are ready to get on the court against a real opponent.
"I think they're ready to start playing somebody else," Rogers said.
Washington County hosted Central Hardin this past week in a scrimmage to prepare for the start of the regular season, and Rogers said he liked what he saw from his squad.
You might say the Little League Cardinals baseball team at Idle Hour Park is in a groove.
The team just completed its second perfect season, posting a 12-0 regular season record, then winning two games in tournament play to improve to 14-0.
Coach Scotty Roution's team also went undefeated last season, winning the regular-season and tournament championships.
Repeating as champs is never an easy accomplishment, and Roution said he didn't expect it going into this season.
On Monday, Aug. 21, all of North America — as well as parts of South America, Europe and Africa — will, weather permitting, be able to view a partial eclipse of the sun. A total eclipse will be viewable to the select 12.2 million Americans living within the path of totality, a 70-mile band stretching across 14 states from Oregon to South Carolina.

This is a summary of ideas expressed at the 4th Annual Excellence in Investing: San Francisco Conference, which is dedicated to the support of education and other children's causes, and presented in partnership with The Ira Sohn Conference Foundation, see notes from Ira Sohn New York here. Great line-up see some of the notes below.
Excellence in Investing
Michael Moe, Chief Investment Officer of GSV Capital
Trade Idea: Buy Twitter (TWTR)
Price Target: Given a $15.5B assumed IPO valuation and a 620mm share count, TWTR is worth $41.16 now, $53.23 in 12 months and $163.68 in 36 months
Valuation: Comparable valuation to Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) and LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) with a smaller user base currently but with a revenue growth pace of 105% vs. Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) at 53% and LNKD at 59%.
Themes: IPOs have changed since the 1990s. There are fewer of them, the companies going public have been incubating longer and therefore accruing more value for private investors than public, since private investors are capturing more of the initial growth. TWTR is arguably more like an older IPO, with more growth ahead for public investors than has been the trend.
TWTR is at the forefront of numerous value-creating changes. As computing shifts to mobile usage (there are 6.5B total mobile phones vs. 1.5B smartphones), TWTR has usage that is already 77% mobile. As video increases as a percentage of data, TWTR has a popular app in Vine. As the second screen becomes a core feature of media usage, 67% of the 18-34 demographic tweets while watching television. As wearable devices develop, TWTR's mobility and brevity will capture share.
How will this be monetized? In various ways – one powerful example: a 1% shift in current ad spending from TV to mobile implies $2B in new value for social media. The acquisition of MoPub gives TWTR an early edge.
Catalysts: Steady growth at the current trajectory in users, views and tweets will translate into free cash flow – TWTR only needs to achieve half of FB's users and match its ARPU to achieve valuation targets.
Malcolm Fairbairn, Chief Investment Officer of Ascend Capital
Trade Idea: Buy CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CF), avoid potash companies in general
Price Target: Current asset replacement cost is $280/share and will be $353/share by 2016 millions? Billions?
Valuation: CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CF) is the low-cost producer in the global marketplace and deserves to be valued, at minimum, at replacement cost. It is currently valued at 5x adjusted EBITDA and deserves the 6.5x EBITDA valuation that Lyondell and other cost-advantaged commodity producers receive.
Themes: Despite the shale gas revolution making the US the lowest-cost region for nitrogen fertilizer (feedstock is 70% of costs), the US is still a net importer. 10 world class plants would need to be built to make the US a net exporter. CF has the best cost structure, is the largest US player, second global player and has excellent locations in the mid-continent.
At current trough levels of pricing ($300/ton) CF can earn more than $16/share. At a reasonable recovery in pricing (say $400/ton vs. $4 in natural gas prices as input) CF can earn between $28 and $35/share. It will be able to increase capacity by 25% by 2016.
Catalysts: Holders are getting paid a dividend to wait while the world fertilizer market sorts itself out. In the meantime, CF Industries Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:CF) has $1.9B of share repurchase capacity, can borrow at 4% and buy back shares at 15%, could avail itself of an MLP structure to unlock value (as RNF and UAN) and could also increase its dividend which is now less than 20% of EPS.
Christopher Lord, Managing Partner of Criterion Capital Management
Trade Idea: Buy tower companies – Crown Castle International Corp. (NYSE:CCI), American Tower Corp (NYSE:AMT), SBA Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:SBAC).
Sell 3D printers (ExOne Co (NASDAQ:XONE), 3D Systems Corporation (NYSE:DDD), VOXELJET AG (NYSE:VJET)), Cree, Inc. (NASDAQ:CREE), "communications box companies" (Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO), EMC Corporation (NYSE:EMC), VMware, Inc. (NYSE:VMW)) and certain "second and third tier" CRM cloud firms trading at 20x to 30x revenue multiples.
Price Target: $100 (Crown Castle International Corp. (NYSE:CCI)), $110 (American Tower Corp (NYSE:AMT)), $110 (SBA Communications Corporation (NASDAQ:SBAC))
Valuation: Towers currently receive a REIT discount because of rate concerns. But even factoring this out, towers get a 16x multiple vs. 20x for the better REITs and this despite 15% free cash flow growth vs. 8% for REITs.
Themes: Mobile data has increased 35x in 6 years and will increase 430x over the next ten years to 11.2 exabytes per month. Who wins in data growth? Towers do. It is a real estate business that is neutral to winners and losers among service providers, enjoys 5-10 year leases with price escalators, has nearly insuperable barriers to entry, and has ~100% incremental EBITDA margins and 60% incremental free cash flow margins.
US nationwide service providers are moving from a duopoly of players with fast data capability to 3 or 4 players. Softbank Corp (OTCMKTS:SFTBF) (TYO:9984) is committed to building a superior data network at Sprint Corporation (NYSE:S). This is how Softbank won share in Japan: they believe in the strategy. This means more customers per tower and also densification: more cell splitting and redundancy in networks to enhance them. This means a lot more capital expenditures being directed to towers.
Catalysts: Earnings and cash flow will grow as the market ramps up to 3 and possibly four national rich data players, and the management teams of the tower companies are committed to returning capital to shareholders and will take steps to do so.
Short Idea Theses: 3D printing companies are in an easily commoditized business and trade at 10x revs, DDD is the easiest short. Major data players like Google Inc (NASDAQ:GOOG), Facebook Inc (NASDAQ:FB) and Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) have moved beyond box solutions like Cisco Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:CSCO) for their needs and will not give these companies 70% margins ever again. CREE's business can be replicated more cheaply in China and this is happening already. Also-ran cloud salesforce.com, inc. (NYSE:CRM) firms are overvalued and have no competitive advantage.
Christopher Balding, Finance Professor at HSBC Business School of Peking University
Trade Idea: Buy and flip certain kinds of Hong Kong secondary offerings
Sell the higher quality Chinese companies, sell commodities linked to China, sell shares of commodity related companies in linked markets like Australia, sell AUD
Price Target: no specifics
Valuation: Valuations in the marketplace right now are skewed, while 65% of Chinese shares are below HK share historical averages (P/Es are 12x, P/Es of state owned enterprises are closer to 4-6x) these shares are not cheap. There has been a "flight to quality" with the market shifting to more verifiably profitable companies, but these now trade at sky-high multiples (Byd Co – 1211 HK) now has an 1100x P/E.
Themes: All financial data from China is false and manipulated. The provinces report 10.8% GDP growth, China reports 7.8% GDP growth. These are all official numbers, but there is no official explanation for the missing 3% in GDP growth. There has been a 111% appreciation in real estate pricing in recent years while

Will RadMenu and RadTreeList built with RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax now work with the new SiteFinity 4.2 release without a bunch of workarounds ?
I read this post http://www.sitefinity.com/devnet/forums/sitefinity-4-x/general-discussions/radcontrols-with-sitefinity.aspx which prompted me to ask this question.
To clarify, we bought Sitefinity 4.0, but with all the problems we had to shelve the project until all the bugs are worked out. In the mean time we have moved on to another project where the RadMenu and the RadTreeList would work nicely for us. We do not have the time or (my case) patience to do this within the Sitefinity framework right now. When we do build our site in Sitefinity, we want to transplant the RadMenu and RadTreeList built with RadControls for ASP.NET Ajax into the site. Can this be done with SiteFinity 4.2 or within the next 3 months without a bunch of workarounds ?
Thank you.
There is a new SitefinitySitemapDataSource control. If you bind to it, you should be able to use these controls as expected.

#2: I had a very fun time doing disc gold with my dad when I was little I got to do that with him. It was a wonderful day weather was nice barely any people and no wind. I did extremely well and my dad did way better than me. I think everybody that enjoys disc gold would love going to that disc golf park. It is perfect and there are maps to to show where your going.
#6: I visted a park with my dad. At the park you can do many things they had a play ground so you can go down the slide, swing on the swings and do monkey bars. They also had a soccer field so you could play soccer with some friends. Of you could enjoy a football game outside.
#10:I showed how to punt a football. You hold the ball over your feet, you step with your right/left the opposite one you write with. Next you drop the ball and at half way you kick it and that is a punt in football.

China was a large nation located in East Asia. Before the apocalypse, China was a rising power. It was a historical power and its first unified dynasty was in 221 BC, when Qin dynasty conquered all the warring states. However, in the recent Qing Dynasty, large amounts of land were lost to foreign countries. The Opium war and the First Sino-Japanese war is just two of these various shameful wars. In 1911, the first republic, the Republic of China was established. In 1937, the second Sino-Japanese war started and left China in ruins. The CCP again became victor of the Chinese civil War, which led to the establishment of the People's Republic of China. The PRC was destroyed by the Zombie apocalypse.

He scored some which raised people's opinion of his play but he still mishandled pucks more often than not; failed to clear pucks which led to a shot blocking clinic by the entire team and was as guilty as anyone is our difficulty getting into the offensive zone. After he came back from his injury he was not good at all. And hasn't been since. As a 4th liner he is fine, but we may be witnessing that he is easily replaced and that it is not that difficult to appear to be a PK specialist with Hank and our top 4 D behind you.
I've always felt that his PK accolades were overdone. His faceoffs are good; not great. His quickness is non existent (he takes forever to change direction; you can see how having Cally, Powe and Hags on the PK really changes things) and his puck skills and success in 50/50 battles are weak. But he does block shots and he does break up passes with his long reach. So, he's a good penalty killer but not great by any means.
I look at it this way -- if you watch a Rangers game on mute or on CBC (if youre lucky), and you are an objective hockey fan, you will not be impressed with Boyle unless its a very specific game situation like a faceoff of a PK -- and not every one.
Someone on this board compared him to Joel Otto last year. Proof that Micheletti is a member around these parts.

In patients with chronic hepatitis C, the hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA level is an important predictor of treatment response. To explore the relationship of HCV RNA with viral and demographic factors, as well as IL28B genotype, we examined viral levels in an ethnically diverse group of injection drug users (IDUs). Between 1998 and 2000, the Urban Health Study (UHS) recruited IDUs from street settings in San Francisco Bay area neighborhoods. Participants who were positive by HCV enzyme immunoassay were tested for HCV viremia by a branched-chain DNA assay. HCV genotype was determined by sequencing the HCV nonstructural 5B protein region. For a subset of participants, IL28B rs12979860 genotype was determined by Taqman. Among 1,701 participants with HCV viremia, median age was 46 years and median duration of injection drug use was 26 years; 56.0% were African American and 34.0% were of European ancestry (non-Hispanic). Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) prevalence was 13.9%. The overall median HCV RNA level was 6.45 log10 copies/mL. In unadjusted analyses, higher levels were found with older age, male gender, African-American ancestry, hepatitis B virus infection, HIV-1 infection, and IL28B rs12979860-CC genotype; compared to participants infected with HCV genotype 1, HCV RNA was lower in participants with genotypes 3 or 4. In an adjusted analysis, age, gender, racial ancestry, HIV-1 infection, HCV genotype, and IL28B rs12979860 genotype were all independently associated with HCV RNA. Conclusion: The level of HCV viremia is influenced by a large number of demographic, viral, and human genetic factors. (HEPATOLOGY 2012;56:86–94)

FEMA, eucalyptus cuts, and herbicides: Fix or pox for fire prone East Bay hills?
FEMA, is in the final stages of reviewing a fire management plan covering a thousand acres from Richmond to San Leandro. The plan would involve cutting down hundreds of thousands of trees and spraying pesticide. The plan is highly controversial, and cause for heated argument between environmentalists. The most fierce debate has centered around Claremont Canyon, in the Berkeley and Oakland hills, and Strawberry Canyon in the Berkeley Hills. Both are near where the devastating East Bay Hills Fire of 1991 began. KPFA Radio news archive, 4 minutes, 6 seconds.

ok, the title says it all. all I want to know is should I act not bothered, even though I really like her?
we kissed and held hands, she basically told me we should meet again Monday or tuesday, and she would think of something totally awesome to do. how should I communicate with her? reply straight away when she texts me? or wait, I want to know the best possible things to do please?
Most Helpful Guy
Remember not to put all your cards on the table. Be yourself, but stay a bit distant. You don't want her thinking that she can have you anytime she wants or that she can have anything she wants from you. You don't want to smoother her but you also don't want to stop communicating with her. Show your interest, but also have a life. Don't call or text all the time and don't immediately reply to her like you were waiting by the phone like a puppy waiting for you to come in the door. Make another date and make it a fun outing somewhere where things get interesting and so both of you can loosen up. The more fun and comfort you have in person, the easier things become. You are not a couple so you have no obligations and neither does she. Just go with the flow. Don't put her on a pedestal by saying she looks good all the time or telling her that she is great 24/7. Thinking leads to over thinking. Most of all, don't tell her your whole life story or else you will run out of things to talk about. Stay interesting, be a mystery, stay on your toes, don't spill your feelings, don't cater to her like she is the only thing out there, have a good time, show man qualities, and no matter what move forward.00|00|0
what if you kinda did some stuf like tell her she looks great and you was thinking about her blah blah!
she doesn't want someone who is stuck up, maybe if I ignore one of her texts and wait for a second one? I am talking to other woman, so ill keep myself busy with that :)
Stop praising her. Let me put it this way. Someone can like steak as their favorite food, but if you have it every meal you will get tired of it. Even if you talk about it all the time everyone else will get sick of hearing it to the point when it becomes annoying. Don't wait for a second text, just don't reply seconds after you get a text, wait minutes or maybe hours.
awesomly put man! cheers

A Penny Saved is a Penny Earned
QUESTION: I've always liked cast-iron banks. I see them displayed on the counter at my bank—I'm sure these are reproductions. So when I discovered one that wasn't too pricey in a local antique shop, I scooped it right up. The bank has its name, "Jonah and the Whale," displayed in a panel underneath the figures of Jonah and the whale. How can I tell if the bank is authentic? And what can you tell me about this bank?
ANSWER: Cast-iron mechanical banks have always been a favorite of American collectors. Perhaps it's because they recall our country's heritage, but more likely because they're cute in a clunky sort of way.
Collectors have sought after old mechanical banks for over 50 years because of their nostalgic look at America's past.
Mechanical banks began to appear shortly after the end of the American Civil War and the American public was eager to purchase them. At the time, a severe coin shortage occurred because people saved them. In fact, the situation got so bad that shopkeepers had to resort to using postage stamps to make change. Both the Union and Confederate governments began issuing paper notes to supplement their coinage and help relieve this problem. But people didn't like paper money because it could become worthless quickly. Coins, on the other hand, would always retain the value of their metallic content.
So mechanical banks became a product of the times and their popularity remained strong well into the 20th century. Not only were they fun toys, but parents could effectively use them to teach their children the practical aspects of being thrifty.
The Shepard Hardware Company of Buffalo, New York, was probably the premier maker of cast-iron mechanical banks. Walter J. and Charles G. Shepard founded their company to produce various pieces of hardware, but in 1882, they began a sideline business making cast-iron mechanical banks. Charles was an inventor.
Shepard entered into the mechanical bank field in about 1882 and available information indicates they sold out their line of toy banks in 1892. The impact Shepard had on the mechanical bank market was astounding when you consider the fact they were able to design, patent, produce, and effectively distribute 15 high quality banks within a time span of only about 10 years.
Their banks sold for $1 each, but dealers could purchase them wholesale for $8.50 a dozen, or about 70 cents each.
All Shepard banks had these common features. First, their artistic paint jobs were unsurpassed for attention to minute detail. Unfortunately, the company didn't use any primer coating to prepare the metal for painting, so the paint eventually flaked off their banks.
Second, each Shepard bank has its name embossed on one of the casting pieces. The name is generally in large bold letters located on the front panel of the bank. Other cast-iron bank manufacturers didn't put the names of their banks on them. This resulted in many banks becoming known by names other than the ones originally given to them by their makers.
Third, each Shepard cast-iron bank is very heavy for its size. It's almost as if cast iron was free and had no bearing on the production cost of the items.
In all, Shepard produced 15 different banks. They have become known for two in particular—the Uncle Sam bank (discussed in my blog from July 8, 2015) and the Jonah and the Whale bank. Charles Shepard received a patent for the latter bank on July 15, 1890. The overall length of the bank was 10-1/4 inches.
Shepard decorators painted the side and end plates of the base with yellow corners, and the letters of the name in gold. They striped the edges of the bottom plate and top part of the bank in yellow and black and painted the water and waves realistically in light bluish-green with white highlighting. The whale is a dark green-black color with a red mouth and white teeth. The boat is an off shade of yellow with stripes of gold, white, blue and red. The robes on the two figures are red and blue, and they have white beards, flesh color faces and hands.
To operate the bank, a person would place a coin on the back of the figure of Jonah. Then the user would press a lever, recessed in the end plate under the rear of the boat. As the whale opened his mouth wide, the figure holding Jonah moved forward in the boat towards the whale. The figure of Jonah tilted downward as though entering the whale's mouth, but instead the coin flew off his back into the whale. Releasing the lever returned the figures in the boat to their original position. The whale's mouth closed and re-opened as though swallowing the coin. The whale's lower jaw continued to move up and down for several seconds after the action takes place. To remove the coins, the user would use a key to unlock a trap in the underside of the base.
In 1892, Charles and Walter Shepard sold their cast-iron savings bank business to J. & E. Stevens of Cromwell of Connecticut.
Today, original Jonah and the Whale banks bring very high prices—if they're in mint condition. Unfortunately, most are not.

Mother Nature's Gift to Glass
QUESTION: My mother loved decorative glassware. She died recently and left me her collection. While some pieces are older, most date from the 1950s and 1960s. I particularly like several vases that look like flowers. Do you know what they are called and tell me a little about their history?
ANSWER: Back in the 1950s and 1960s, many women collected decorative glassware. Most of the pieces came from Fenton Glassware, but several other manufacturers also made a wide assortment of vases, candy and butter dishes, ashtrays, and the like. Many of these feature hobnail decoration. The vases you're asking about are known as Jack-in-the-Pulpit vases.
To glass lovers the name "Jack-in-the-Pulpit" has become synonymous with glass vases styled to imitate a wild flower. This flower is native to some parts of the United States, but this style of glassware originated in England, where no jack-in-the-pulpit flowers don't grow. Most likely, this design came from the adaptation of a similar wildflower found in England known as Lords and Ladies.
Like the flower, a glass Jack-in-the-Pulpit vase consists of three parts, a base, a stem and the trumpet. The trumpet is the large flared top which gives the piece its style, much like the trumpet forms the flower on the plant. The stem connects that trumpet to the base, much like the stem connects the flower to its root. Trumpets vary in style, from flared, rounded trumpets, to those with pinched and twisted points in the front and the back. Some trumpets, particularly those by Fenton, have a raised back and dip downward in the front.
Some collectors believe Louis C. Tiffany created the first Jack-in-the-Pulpit vase around 1900. But that isn't the case. The first known Jack-in-the-Pulpit vase appeared in 1854, a good 40 years before Tiffany's vases. The style of the early English Jack-in-the-Pulpit vase even more closely resembles the flower. However, English glassmakers at the turn of the century didn't name their pieces, unlike their American counterparts. Instead, they just gave them a pattern number.
English Jack-in-the-Pulpit vases came from a number of makers, including Thomas Webb & Sons, Richardson's, Webb-Corbett and Stuart, plus many small companies. Some smaller firms subcontracted work out to finishers, so it's possible that one firm decorated the blanks of another. British glassmakers did, however, blow most of their Jack-in-the-Pulpits.
Prices for British Jack-in the-Pulpit vases range from $75 for a piece which can't be attributed to any particular manufacturer to several thousand dollars for a rare Webb or Stevens & Williams piece. Rare pieces can command $2,000 to $3,000. On average, British pieces go for about $175.
Fenton's Burmese vases are particularly popular with collectors. The company also made decorated Jack-in-the-Pulpits in other types of glass. Fenton decorated white and off-white, called cameo satin, blanks with scenes sell for around $75.
Other noteworthy American producers include Northwood/Dugan, Imperial, Westmoreland, Mount Washington and L.G. Wright. Northwood made jacks in various colors in Carnival glass, a short marigold version being the most common. But Northwood and Dugan also made them in opalescent glass. These generally sell for under $100 apiece.

Tile It
QUESTION: In the last few years, I've begun to buy decorative tiles from the early 20th century. I buy what I like and not because a particular company made them. One I purchased recently supposedly came from the Moravian Tile Works in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Since I live in the Midwest, I haven't had an opportunity to visit the Tile Works. What can you tell me about this tile?
ANSWER: Go to any Arts and Crafts auction and you're sure to find art tiles, ranging from $20 to several thousand dollars. But what makes one tile worth more than another? And what makes these late 19th/early 20th century tiles any different from the ones we see today at our local home renovation store?
Combine the rise of the Aesthetic Movement, the desire to get back to basics, and a variety of unique techniques, and tiles can represent some of the most interesting objects made during the heyday of the Arts & Crafts Movement." It's these "art" tiles that are of real interest to collectors, and these are the tiles that command the highest prices. Commercial production tiles, while they're old, even when made by a well-collected maker, are usually only valued in the $20-$30 range.
Although a large number of American potteries made tiles, six are most popular with collectors and/or the most historically significant---American Encaustic, J.G.Low, Grueby, Rookwood, Batchelder, and the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works.
Henry Chapman Mercer, an archeologist and antiquities collector, founded the Moravian Tile Works in 1898. His intent was to bring back the medieval craft of tile making and established the Moravian Pottery and Tile Works on his family's estate in Doylestown, Pennsylvania. Mercer chose the name Moravian to represent the German immigrants who brought tile making to Pennsylvania in the 18th century.
Although Mercer designed all the tiles, using patterns derived from European an Middle Eastern ones, as well as photographs of ones from Mexico, he trained a crew of men to produce them by pressing wet local clay into handcarved molds. Workers slow fired these molds in a wood burning kiln, painted the bisque ware with glaze, and fired them again.
Mercer gained a reputation as a serious proponent of the Arts & Crafts Movement. Many of America's top tile makers, including Grueby and Batchelder, copied his tile designs. Mercer also produced several lines of four-inch molded tiles representing tall ships, zodiac signs, and farming. He also used them to build items like inkwells and bookends. For more elaborate installations, Mercer produced cookie-cutter-shaped paving tiles referred to as "brocades."
Mercer remained active with the company until his death in 1930. The company remained in business until 1964, and in 1969, it opened as a museum.
The reproduction tiles made today come from Mercer's original molds, locally dug clay, and have properties similar to those of Mercer's slips and glazes that follow his final formulations, although some have been modified to reduce the lead and heavy metal content to less toxic levels. The manufacturer of reproduction tiles began in 1974, but there's no danger of deceit. When the Bucks County, Pennsylvania, Department of Parks and Recreation took over the Tile Works as a working museum, they insisted that all the tiles made at the museum bear the mark of a stylized "MOR," the words "Bucks County," and the year of manufacture.
Today, collectors can expect to pay from $30-100 for common tiles, $35-250 for brocades, $300-3,000 for "built items" made from tiles, and $1,000-5,000 for the more unique medieval-style tiles.
You can find some of the largest collections of Mercer tiles at John D. Rockefeller's New York estate, Grauman's Chinese Theater, and the Casino at Monte Carlo. Your tile represents "Virgo," a sign of the zodiac.

A Tale of Peter Rabbit
QUESTION: I collect teapots, mostly because I'm a tea drinker and have always liked them. I don't really have any that are antique or made by famous potteries. Recently, I purchased a Wedgwood teapot with an illustration and text from Beatrix Potter's book The Tale of Peter Rabbit. I've always loved this book and have read it to my children. What can you tell me about Beatrix Potter and, more specifically, about my teapot?
ANSWER: First, your teapot isn't that old, but it's highly collectible. Wedgwood came out with this pattern, known as Peter Rabbit, in the early 1980s. The company has produced a continuous line of items with Peter Rabbit on them, but this collection was the first to literally illustrate Beatrix Potter's book. Each piece in the collection—this isn't a set of dishes but a collection of different pieces—features an illustration and the accompanying text from her book. Altogether, the collection contains all the illustrations and text from her book.
Peter Rabbit is one of Beatrix Potter's most beloved creations. He, along with Jemima Puddle-duck, Tom Kitten and Pigling Bland, all came from her fascination with her childhood pets and her ability to make each take on human characteristics. This is what makes her stories so popular with young children.
Helen Beatrix Potter was born July 28, 1866, in South Kensington, London. Born to affluent parents, Beatrix and her younger brother Bertram spent their childhood in the third floor nursery of Number 2 Bolton Gardens. Potter never attended school like her brother. Instead, a strict Scottish nurse and a succession of governesses educated her at home.
Nature fascinated Potter even as a young child. She and her brother collected animals, fossils, and skeletons. The upstairs nursery became home to an assortment of pets, including rabbits, toads, and mice. The two spent hours at the Natural History Museum studying and sketching insects, fossils and stuffed animals.
Over the next 20 years, the Potter family vacationed in the Lake District, staying at Wray Castle, Fawe Park, Holehird and Lingholm by Derwentwater. When Potter began to write, she used these locations in her books.
After Bertram began boarding school, Potter began taking drawing lessons and at 17 her parents allowed her to take a dozen lessons in painting. She began making greeting cards of her pictures and in 1890 she sent six designs for Christmas cards to the German firm of Hildesheimer & Faulkner, who paid her handsomely for her first published works.
On September 4, 1893, Beatrix wrote an eight-page letter to an ill child, five-year-old Noel Moore, the eldest child of her former governess Annie Carter. Carter had married and become the mother of eight children, the youngest named Beatrix. The letter to Noel was a tale about a rabbit named Peter. Seven years later, Beatrix asked to borrow it back and made a few revisions, created more sketches and decided to publish a book.
After six rejection letters, Potter decided to publish the book herself. She was particular about how the book was to look and specified it was to measure 5 by 3 3/4 inches, making it easier for little hands to hold. Today, her books measure 5 by 4 inches. She also insisted a sketch appear every time a page was turned. She gave away her first 250 books to friends and relatives and in two weeks had 200 more copies published.
In 1902, Frederick Warene & Co., one of the publishers who originally turned down the book, agreed to publish it if Potter did the watercolor illustrations. In 1902, the publisher released The Tale of Peter Rabbit, the story of a naughty rabbit that disobeys his mother and runs into the garden of Mr. McGregor. This became the prototype for all of Potter's tales, beginning with the famous list of rabbit names—Flopsy, Mopsy, Cottontail, and Peter.
Today, The Tale of Peter Rabbit is one of the best-selling children's classics of all time, with more than 40 million copies sold. It has never been out of print and is available in more than 35 languages.
Peter Rabbit and his friends have been immortalized in countless collectibles, from stuffed animals to fine Wedgwood china, which brings us back to your teapot. This item, as well as many of the specialty items in the Wedgwood "Peter Rabbit" Collection are highly prized by collectors of Peter Rabbit memorabilia.

Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. [He is] the Rock, his work [is] perfect: for all his ways [are] judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right [is] he. Deu 32:1-4
And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous [are] thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true [are] thy ways, thou King of saints. Rev 15:3
Judaism does not prohibit writing the Name of God per se; it prohibits only erasing or defacing a Name of God. However, observant Jews avoid writing any Name of God casually because of the risk that the written Name might later be defaced, obliterated or destroyed accidentally or by one who does not know better.
The commandment not to erase or deface the name of God comes from Deut. 12:3. In that passage, the people are commanded that when they take over the promised land, they should destroy all things related to the idolatrous religions of that region, and should utterly destroy the names of the local deities. Immediately afterwards, we are commanded not to do the same to our God. From this, the rabbis inferred that we are commanded not to destroy any holy thing, and not to erase or deface a Name of God.
Background on the Masoretic Text:
The basic Hebrew text is called the Masoretic Text (MT), which is named after a group of scribes in the ninth century that preserved the text and added vowels and punctuation marks. The original Hebrew just had consonants, but a few consonants functioned as vowels. No one would know how to pronounce the Hebrew words unless vowels marks were added. This is a great help in understanding the text. (Hebrew Bible)
There were three different tasks of copying the OT. The Sopherim wrote the consonantal text. The Nakdanim added the vowel points and accents. The Masoretes added the marginal notes. An example is the Kethib (what is written) and Qere (what should be read). There are over 1,300 of these. The vowels of the Qere were written in the text of the Kethib. There are three different systems of vowel pointing, the Babylonian, Palestinian and Tiberian which the Masoretes created. The marginal notes called Masora were mainly written in Aramaic and were like a concordance.
Before the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls the Nash Papyrus was the oldest known witness to the OT which dated to the first or second century AD. It contained the decalogue. The second oldest were the Cairo Geniza fragments (about 200,000) which date to the fifth century AD (See Princeton Geniza Project). Most of these are in the Cambridge University Library and the Bodleian Library at Oxford. Today the oldest known text of the OT was discovered in 1979 in tombs across the Hinnom valley from Jerusalem. The text is the benediction of Aaron (Numbers 6:24-26) written on a silver amulet from the 7th century BC (Hoerth 1998, 386).
The oldest surviving manuscript of the complete Bible is the Codex Leningradensis which dates to 1008 AD. A Facsimile edition of this great codex is now available (Leningrad Codex 1998, Eerdmans for $225). The BHS (Biblia Hebraica Stuttgartensia) follows this codex. The most comprehensive collection of old Hebrew manuscripts is in the Russian Public Library in St. Petersburg formerly called Leningrad. Another important text is the Aleppo Codex which is now in Jerusalem. The HUB (Hebrew University Bible) follows the Aleppo Codex. The Isaiah and Jeremiah editions are now available. For a more detailed study see The Text of the Old Testament by Ernst Wurthwein and Textual Criticism: Recovering the Text of the Hebrew Bible by P. Kyle McCarter, Jr.
As to antiquity, Deuteronomy is the second most copied book at Qumran (Dead Sea Scrolls) 33 copies, second only to Psalms. Some are copied in fragments like literature, poems or hymns. However, generally speaking, carbon dating of manuscripts at Qumran establish true antiquity of copies at several centuries B.C.
The Institute for Biblical & Scientific Studies does not mention any change to the Masoretic Text needed with reference to Deuteronomy 32:1-4. However, although we do have a non-MT Hebrew version of Deutoronomy 32 from cave 4, 4QDt(q) it only contains lines 37-43. So we cannot read anything into an omission here in comparing the Dead Sea Scrolls to the Septuagint (LXX.)
To see the history of the Hebrew Alphabet, the signs and the care in forming letters in Holy Scriptures: Hebrew Alphabet
To understand the methods of translating Ancient Hebrew - poetic v mechanical v literal.
Extra-Biblical ancient manuscripts in the pseudepigraphra have a few things to say as well.
Testament of Moses which is supposed to be a summary of Deutoronomy, but is very fragmented and the parts which would address the name, the Rock, may be missing. The scholars dispute the age of the manuscript but put it somewhere between 168 BC and 135 AD. The bearing it may have (if any) to this discussion is that Moses instructs and assures Joshua to protect the Scriptures (last part of chapter 1) in a manner that suggests there will be another find like the Dead Sea Scrolls as we get closer to Christs coming again:
The gravity of this Divine utterance of "Peter" is commensurate with the Divine utterance unto Jacob of his new name, "Israel". Therefore, to assert that Jesus' re-naming of Simon bar-Jonah to "Peter" is somehow lessened in significance to the applied name of "the Rock" to God Himself the authors of Scripture, ignores the power of God's utterance in Creation. By His utterance unto Jacob, Israel was created. By His utterance unto Simon bar-Jonah, the New Israel has been created.
Your notation, 1 Enoch 96:2 refers to the righteous rising into the cleft of the rock, is particularly interesting to me in light of Thayer's discrimination between the Greek words petra and petros.
1 Enoch 95:2 In the day of the sufferings of sinners your offspring shall be elevated, and lifted up like eagles. Your nest shall be more exalted than that of the avest; you shall ascend, and enter into the cavities of the earth, and into the clefts of the rocks for ever, like conies, from the sight of the ungodly;
Having said that, I do not believe that the quote from Isaiah refers to Abraham as "rock," rather, I believe that it refers to God as being that Rock:
Isa 51:1 "Hearken to me, you who pursue deliverance, you who seek the LORD; look to the rock from which you were hewn, and to the quarry from which you were digged. Isa 51:2 Look to Abraham your father and to Sarah who bore you; for when he was but one I called him, and I blessed him and made him many. Isa 51:3 For the LORD will comfort Zion; he will comfort all her waste places, and will make her wilderness like Eden, her desert like the garden of the LORD; joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the voice of song. Isa 51:4 "Listen to me, my people, and give ear to me, my nation; for a law will go forth from me, and my justice for a light to the peoples.
It's pretty clear that this section is a call for His people to return to Him and cast their gaze upon Him.
Having said that, it DOES appear that there is an allusion to Abraham being hewn out of the Rock; but it is but an allusion, not an actual renaming of Abraham.
This is not a doctoral dissertation forum but a public opinion forum. We could monopolize the entire bandwidth with available data and still disagree.
You seem to imply that LXX somehow insults God. The LXX verse 4 in Deu 32 is nothing short of absolute praise for God.
When you say "Jesus Christ affirms the holiness of the Torah" you are neglecting the fact that the Gospels attribute Christ's quotes from LXX Torah and not the Palestinian version, as you are neglecting the fact that it is now firmly established that at the time of Jesus walking on earth there were very distinct (four, possibly more) versions of Judaism and Jewish scriptures, the single surviving sect being the Pharisaical/rabbinical one which the Protestants maintain is the only version.
Again, I am reminding you without overwhelming these pages with endless references which can be found by anyone interested enough even on the Internet and certainly in well-equipped libraries, that the Septuagint was a translation by the Jews for the Jews who, escaping Babylonian occupation, found themselves in Greek-speaking lands and acquired languages other than Hebrew (the way American Jews, at least most of them, speak English and very little if any Hebrew), virtually forgetting it.
It would be much more realistic to assume that their version of Deut 32:4 is simply a true translation of the version of Torah they had (obviously different from the palestinian version) in Hebrew then to assume it was deliberately mistranslated or even decptively altered to demean God's name.
If, on the other hand, you are one of those LXX-deniers a la the 19th century Lutheran charlatan Paul Kahle, then of course Deu 32:4 would be a "Christian" alteration. However, it does not explain why would any Christian scribe try to diminish any of God's names.
The Rock in Judaism is a common name for God
One more time, the Rock is used 2 times in the MT as applied to God. It is used 65 times to mean just the rock. It it obvious it is used a lot more commonly to mean rock than than to represent God.
I assert that when one binds himself with the Lords Prayer and turns around and discredits a Name of God he is asking for trouble because here also He has put this "song" in our Christian mouths and our own words will witness against us just as much as "forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors"
How is this connected to the Rock? How is this discrediting the name of God? Where are you pulling this stuff from?
Now for those who question whether The Rock (tzur) was in the original Hebrew from which the Septuagint was translated from the research project thread
You have no proof whatsoever that the LXX was translated from the "original" MT! In fact, given the differences, it is highly unlikely unless the translator was drunk or on some kind of mushroom diet.
Asserting that LXX is a translation of MT is a highly misleading statement lacking any proof. It is an assumption on your part without any evidence whatsoever.

Petition Seeks to Gag San Francisco Supervisor at Annual Harvey Milk Memorial
San Francisco Group for Accountable Government (SFGAG) seeks to prevent media hungry SF Supervisor from hijacking the annual Harvey Milk Candlelight Memorial.
An organization known as the San Francisco Group for Accountable Government, (SFGAG), has launched an online petition seeking to prevent unpopular San Francisco District Eight Supervisor Scott Wiener from speaking at the thirty-fifth annual memorial for Harvey Milk. The evening candlelight commemoration, organized by the Harvey Milk Democratic Club and other groups, is to be held beneath the Pride Flag on Wednesday, November 27, 2013 at 7pm.
A link to the petition first surfaced on November 13, 2013 in the Facebook group "Recall Scott Wiener Now" posted by prolific Wiener detractor Scott Hester-Johnson. Many members of the group indicated they had signed as well as shared the petition link.
Subsequently, on the Facebook information page for the Milk memorial, outspoken activist Mitch Hightower started a message thread by stating that he hoped the event would not be "hijacked by elected officials". A flurry of responses ensued with a variety of opinions on who is and is not an appropriate speaker for this well-attended community event. The vast majority of the postings favored having no politicians speaking at all.
"No politicians will be using the memorial to score political points", assured organizer and event co-host David Waggoner.
Long-time community activist Tommi Avicolli Mecca concurred declaring, "Wiener is not being asked to speak".
Other community activists are already aware that the District Eight Supervisor often doesn't wait for an invitation. Recently Wiener arrived in a black limousine with a small entourage and commandeered the megaphone from activists Trey Allen and Michael Petrelis at a demonstration in front of the Russian Consulate. The Supervisor immediately captured the television news and other media attention. This resulted in video and written coverage focused on comments from Wiener and not the demonstration issues.
While at the time of this writing the petition has not yet exceeded 100 signatures, the comments about Wiener are highly critical and unabashed. Many of the most searing comments came from activists and other citizens who have regularly weighed in on various issues concerning the polarizing Supervisor.
"Who voted for this guy? Scott [Wiener] is not only a disgrace to the LGBTQ community but also to San Francisco as a whole", posted Dean Clark.
Renowned activist Jason Villalobos also gave a scathing review of the Supe. "Scott Wiener has done more to damage the gay community that any other out politician in the Bay Area. He's a disgrace to the legacy of Harvey Milk".
James Youll added, "Scott [Wiener] has repeatedly invoked Harvey Milk's name to draw attention and credit toward himself, despite a long history of policymaking and behind the scenes manipulation to harm the very people and community that Harvey Milk stood for and validated. Politicians who steal legitimacy have no legitimate place in a celebration for Harvey".
In a polite email response from SFGAG, a referral link to the petition was provided and read, "Thank you for your interest in SFGAG and our current Change.org petition effort. The petition speaks for itself as do the numerous comments from petition supporters".
The District Eight Supervisor and his staff were unresponsive to requests for comment about the petition. However, many activists and other citizens engaged in the community had much to say.
"Harvey Milk showed rare courage, spoke the truth, and gave a voice to those who had none. Like a cowardly bully, Scott Wiener has abused his power and used lies and deceit to do just the opposite, take that voice away. How is it even remotely appropriate for this hit man of the wealthy to attend a candlelight memorial for a genuinely great and selfless man whose vision he is so far removed from", wrote community activist Peter Sferra.
San Francisco resident Mira Ingram said, "Harvey Milk empowered those facing discrimination and oppression, and built a community of caring and compassion; Scott Wiener criminalizes those facing discrimination and oppression, and exiles them from their communities".
Michael Regalbuto wrote, "[Wiener] stand[s] against the core values Harvey Milk and those like him set forth in this City, State and Country. [Wiener's] politics are an abomination to any reasons I had for living in [San Francisco], this city that has become a cesspool".
"Harvey is rolling in his grave watching [Wiener] help turn this city from a welcoming, accepting, creative community into a sanitary, challenge-free playground for the rich", added San Francisco resident Rachael Atchison.
Respected activist Ron Noble concludes, "The LGBT leadership in San Francisco is dead".
FYI: When you sign the petition your comments are forwarded to the entire SF Board of Supervisors and the lead organizer of the Milk Candlelight Memorial event, Tom Temprano, President of the Harvey Milk Democratic Club.

Hi all!
We currently have a CISCO VPN connection that works great with all of our Server and Client device VLAN's just fine, but it does NOT work with our VOIP Vlan. The previous employee who setup the VPN is no longer with the company and i am trying to pull the slack. I wasn't sure if I have to add the VLAN to the Firewall itself or just add a Network Policy to our Domain Controllers?
Any direction or help would be much appreciated!
Thanks, Jeff

Can I see the config of your router/firewall?
Dec 14, 2009 at 12:47 UTC
Sure, but i would rather show you one and not both? Or tell me the section of the Config, in which you need to see and I can email or paste it in here?
Dec 14, 2009 at 12:49 UTC
Well let me ask where the VPN tunnel is, and where the voice default gateway is. Are they on the same device? I would like to see the ACLs and routing tables, with respect to the Voice vlan and data vlan.
Dec 14, 2009 at 12:53 UTC
Ok, the VPN Tunnel is on the Firewall. The Voice Default Gateway is on the Router. See attachment...it is our ASA Fireall Config dump
Dec 14, 2009 at 1:03 UTC
Real quick, what was your voice vlan subnet. May take a while to get back to you after this point, I'm about to jump into a meeting.
Dec 14, 2009 at 1:08 UTC
The name was VOIP_VLAN but it is, 172.16.1.xxx

Pigmentation: Soso, not comparable to my favourite Prestige Total Intensity Eyeliners or Milani Eyeliners.
Finish: Shimmery but not metallic.
Longevity: Excellent. I normally use them on my bottom lash line and outer wing, they are still visible after 8 hours.
Packaging: automatic/ mechanical pencil, travel friendly and hassle free!
(I hate to sharpen my eyeliners all the time! )
Price: RRP $2.5 each! The cheapest eyeliner I have seen from Priceline!!!
Essence Long-Lasting Pencils in Tu-Tu Tourquoise & I Have A Green are not intensely pigmented or metallic so using either of these two shades solely might not give enough definition to your eyes. I recommend using a black/ dark brown eyeliner near the lash line/ tightline for more definition and only adding the turquoise or green as a accent color. The shades are refreshing and beautiful, especially suitable for summer season!
