Nongame Freshwater Fishing Regulations
General Information
Nongame fish may be taken with any lawful nongame fishing device. Nongame fish may also be taken with hook and line. A fisherman may only use four rods and reels. A fisherman fishing from a boat may use an unlimited number of rods and reels if all persons in the boat 16 years and older have valid fishing licenses.
Nongame fishing permits and tags may be purchased from SCDNR only. Applications may be obtained by calling 803-734-3833.
Nongame fishing permits and tags are required, in addition to a valid South Carolina recreational fishing license (also applies to youth under 16), to use the following devices for recreational purposes:
- up to 1 trotlines with not more than 50 hooks,
- up to 50 set hooks
- not more than 50 jugs
- up to 2 traps
- 1 hoop net
- 1 gill net no more than 100 yards in length or 3 gill nets, none of which exceed 30 yards in length (This does not apply to shad and herring.)
- up to 2 eel pots
With a valid South Carolina recreational fishing license and no additional tags or permits, archery equipment, cast nets, crayfish traps (5 or less), gigs, hand grabbing, minnow seines, minnow traps, spears and skimbow nets may be used in freshwaters except lakes owned or managed by the DNR to take nongame fish.
This requirement applies to all freshwaters of the state inland of the saltwater-freshwater dividing lines, except privately-owned ponds.
Nongame fishing devices are not allowed in certain waters. The maximum number of devices allowed per area is shown in the Nongame Device Limits by Location Recreational and Nongame Device Limits by Location Commercial.
A tag must be attached to the device for which it was issued, and each permit and tag identification receipt must be in the licensee's possession while engaging in the activity.
Game fish must be immediately released if caught by net or trap or any other device used for catching nongame fish.
Commercial Fishing
A commercial freshwater fishing license must be in possession to take nongame fish by any method from public waters and sell or offer for sale such nongame fish, and/or fish with the following nongame fishing devices:
- 6 or more crayfish traps
- 3 or more eel pots
- 1 elver fyke net
- 4 or more gill nets (or a total of more than 100 yards of net) (This does not apply to shad and herring.)
- 2 or more hoop nets
- 3 or more traps, or
- 2 or more trotlines or fish trotlines with more than 50 hooks.
Strikers, persons other than the licensed freshwater commercial fishermen, who under immediate supervision assists a licensed commercial freshwater fisherman, but does not use separate nongame fishing devices from the vessel engaged in commercial fishing. A striker is not required to have a commercial freshwater fishing license.
No more than one blue catfish over 36 inches can be taken from Lakes Marion and Moultrie or the upper reach of the Santee, Congaree and Wateree Rivers per person per day. There is no possession limit. However, effective April 1, 2015 there will be a 25 fish possession limit and only 2 fish larger than 32 inches may be taken on Lakes Marion and Moultrie and the upper reach of the Santee River. Also effective April 1, 2015, there will be no possession limit and only 2 fish larger than 32 inches may be taken on the Congaree and Wateree Rivers.
To qualify for a resident commercial freshwater fishing license, one must have been a resident of this state for the past 365 consecutive days and furnish proof to the SCDNR.
Shad and Herring (American and hickory shad and blueback herring)
To take shad for recreational purposes by hook and line, cast net, or skim bow net in waters of the state a person must have either a freshwater or saltwater recreational fishing license.
American shad and herring can be harvested by skimbow net February-April. Only 10 shad per person per day or 1 US bushel of herring per person per day except in the Santee River (which is 20 shad per person per day) can be harvested. Gill nets are allowed to harvest American shad and herring for commercial use. If fishing gill nets recreationally, one must adhere to the recreational limits.
It is unlawful to possess saltwater or freshwater game fish or fishing tackle capable of taking saltwater or freshwater game fish while taking or attempting to take shad or herring with gill nets.
Commercial fishing for shad and herring in freshwaters, including for sale as bait and by use of gill nets, is regulated under saltwater fisheries laws regardless of location within the state (Sec. 50-5- 1500 and 50-5-1550). Contact the Charleston License office at 843-953-9301 for commercial and gill net information.
It is unlawful to take shad by hook and line or by skimbow net while operating or possessing commercial fishing equipment for taking shad or herring.
Markers and Identification on Nongame Devices
Trotlines, traps, eel pots, gill nets, and hoop nets must be marked with a white floating marker not less than a capacity of one quart and not more than a capacity of one gallon and must be made of solid, buoyant material that does not sink if punctured or cracked. A floating marker must be constructed of plastic, PVC spongex, plastic foam, or cork. A hollow buoy or float, including plastic, metal, or glass bottles or jugs, must not be used, except that a manufactured buoy or float specifically designed for use with nongame fishing devices may be hollow if constructed of heavy duty plastic material and approved by the department. The owner's name and department customer identification number must be legible on each of the white floating marker. Both commercial and recreational fishermen shall comply with provisions of this title pertaining to the marking and use of a nongame fishing device. A trotline must be marked on both ends.
A commercial trotline must be marked at intervals of every fifty hooks. A commercial trotline which uses fifty or fewer hooks must be marked at intervals of twenty-five hooks. A recreational trotline must be marked at intervals of every twenty-five hooks. Each interval float must be 'International Orange' in color.
No game fish (except bream, excluding redbreast, cut into two or more equal parts), live bait or any bait other than bait listed below shall be used with trotlines, set hooks and jugs: soap, doughballs, (nongame fish or bream, excluding redbreast, cut into two or more equal parts), shrimp, grapes or meat scraps (which may not include insects, worms and other invertebrates).
- On the Black, Edisto, Great Pee Dee, Little Pee Dee, Lumber, Lynches (including Clarks, Mill and Muddy Creeks), Sampit and Waccamaw Rivers, live nongame fish and bream, excluding redbreast, may be used with single-barbed set hooks that have a shank-to-point gap of fifteen-sixteenths inches or greater. However, it is unlawful for a person to have in possession more than the lawful creel limit of bream while fishing with nongame devices on these rivers.
- On the Black, Great Pee Dee, Little Pee Dee, Lumber, Lynches (including Clarks, Mill and Muddy Creeks) and Waccamaw rivers, live nongame fish and bream, excluding redbreast, may be used on a trotline having not more than 20 hooks with a shank-to-point gap of fifteen-sixteenths inches or greater. However, it is unlawful for a person to have in possession more than the lawful creel limit of bream while fishing with nongame devices on these rivers.
No game fish may be used as bait to catch fish recreationally except for bream (other than redbreast). Trout may be used as bait only on Lakes Hartwell, Russell, Thurmond, Tugaloo, Yonah, Stevens Creek Reservoir and the Savannah River. When using game fish as bait to catch fish recreationally they must be included in the daily creel limit.
There are no restrictions on the type of bait permissible in traps or eel pots, except that no game fish or parts thereof shall be used as bait.
Except for bait lost while fishing, it is unlawful to intentionally release any aquatic species, including bait, regardless of the stage of its life cycle, into the waters of this State without a permit from the SCDNR.
It is unlawful to use any nonindigenous fish as bait that is not already established in the water body being fished except the following minnows: fathead minnows, golden shiners, and goldfish, including 'black salties'.
Prohibited Areas
No nongame fishing devices of any kind may be used in SCDNR-managed lakes.
Prohibited Practices
Possession or use on the freshwaters of this state of any device or gear designed or used to catch nongame fish not authorized by law is prohibited.
Possession of game fish or tackle designed to catch game fish is prohibited while fishing traps, trotlines, or other nongame fish devices except cast nets.
It is unlawful for any person to tamper with, fish, or use in any manner the nongame fishing device or gear owned and tagged by another person, or to take from any such device or gear, any fish caught thereon. No fishing device shall be used, placed, set or fished so as to create a hazard to boating.
No trotlines, traps or eel pots shall be placed within 200 yards of any permanent man-made structure on Lakes Marion and Moultrie nor placed anywhere in the Diversion Canal connecting Lakes Marion and Moultrie, the Tailrace Canal nor the area known as the Borrow Pit (also known as "Bar Pit") in Clarendon County.

Were any of you been diagnosed with partial or marginal placenta previa early in your pregnancy (for me it was at the 20 week anatomy scan)? And if you were diagnosed with it, did it resolve itself on its own? The perinatalogist said that most cases resolve on their own, but there are some that don't. Those of you that had the marginal or partial pp, did your OB allow you to have (or at least attempt) a vaginal delivery or did they recommend / force you to deliver cesarean?
Looking forward to your responses. Thank you!

DCOMShort for Distributed Component Object Model, an extension of the Component Object Model (COM) that allows COM components to communicate across network boundaries. Traditional COM components can only perform interprocess communication across process boundaries on the same machine. DCOM uses the RPC mechanism to transparently send and receive information between COM components (i.e., clients and servers) on the same network. DCOM was first made available in 1995 with the initial release of Windows NT 4.
DCOM serves the same purpose as IBM's DSOM protocol, which is the most popular implementation of CORBA. Unlike CORBA, which runs on many operating systems, DCOM is currently implemented only for Windows.

Gear Review
Look Awesome
Member since
I just got my bindings a couple of days ago so I didn't get to try them out yet but they look awesome, even better than in the picture and you can't go wrong with the price. I have last year's forum aura board and the creamsicle color binding matches it perfectly. They also came really fast. I live in Canada so I was expecting for it to take some time, but they arrived in about a week.

The AD7699 is an 8-channel, 16-bit, charge redistribution successive approximation register (SAR) analog-to-digital converter (ADC) that operates from a single power supply, VDD.
The AD7699 contains all components for use in a multichannel, low power data acquisition system, including a true 16-bit SAR ADC with no missing codes; an 8-channel low crosstalk multip-lexer useful for configuring the inputs as single-ended (with or without ground sense), differential, or bipolar; an internal 4.096 V low drift reference and buffer; a temperature sensor; a selectable one-pole filter; and a sequencer that is useful when channels are continuously scanned in order.
The AD7699 uses a simple serial port interface (SPI) for writing to the configuration register and receiving conversion results. The SPI interface uses a separate supply, VIO, which is set to the host logic level. Power dissipation scales with throughput.
The AD7699 is housed in a tiny 20-lead LFCSP with operation specified from −40°C to +85°C.

Superwinch Tiger Shark 11500LB Electric Winch
Earning multiple SEMA Awards and the ProPickup "Rock Solid" award, the Superwinch Tiger Shark Series is setting the bar for innovation, design, durability and functionality.
Warning: Synthetic rope cannot be used on this off-road winch. Synthetic rope can only be used on winches with steel drums designed specifically to withstand the rigorous forces created-by synthetic rope; for example the Superwinch Terra Series, the Danny O'Day S4000, the S4000SR or the Talon Series. In addtion, the heat generated by the brake which is located inside the Tiger Shark drum exceeds the heat limitations of Dyneema synthetic rope. Many of our competitors will sell you a winch with a similar brake in drum setup with aftermarket synthetic rope and will not warn you of the damage which may occur to the winch, rope, vehicle or injury to the winch operator.
Here is what separates the Tiger Shark Series apart from the pretenders:
11500 lbs of Rated Line Pull-Built to bite almost any application
Weather Sealed 6.0 HP motor-Reduces damage from rain, snow and blowing dust
Heavy-Duty 3-Stage Gearboxe-Handles stress and torque on demand
Heavy-Duty Drum Supports-Load tested all the way to stall
Weather Sealed Solenoids-Reduces damage from rain, snow and blowing dust
Severe-Duty Textured Finish-Resists harsh outdoor and off-road abuse
Heavy-Duty Rubber Hand-held Remote-Field proven design provides effortless switching
Stainless Steel Tie Bars and Hardware-Great appearance & resists damage from rain and snow
Heavy-Duty Fairlead with Stainless Steel Rollers-Brushed finish endures weather and wire rope abuse
Ergonomically Shaped Freespool Control-Easy to grip and effortless to operate; lift up and then turn feature insures freespool is in engaged or disengaged position, safety first!

An XPresso rig that lets you add condensation to any object!
|Supported C4D releases:
|Required C4D modules:
please let me know when we can expect an update for the plugin.
Thankk you
I am working on an update and it will probably ready at the end of Jan 2015.
It is great to find the right answer to the right problem ;)
Does it work fine with R16 ?
Yes, it is an XPresso rig so it works with R16.
Unfortunately, due to the way the metaballs work in C4D, the scaling implementation has to remain as is. As soon as things get smaller, the meataballs don't work as I want them to.
Hi, I was wondering if there is any news on an update addressing the scaling issues.
l bought, paid by card but didn't get plugin.
Bought the plugin does not !!
Hello. Bought the plugin but it is not!!! (Visa Russia 4276 8160 2623 1280) firstname.lastname@example.com
Hi Dan
Im liking the plugin although it has brought my poor old 2009 mac to its knees a few times.
Is there any way to offset the centre of the sprits in order to sink them into the bottle a bit and be less round.
Im guessing its not possible with meatballs but squashing them down on the surface would also be nice. Maybe even when the coalesce is not on.
Great value, taking the drudge out of the whole process, many thanks
Hi Dan,
the rig is beautyful and works well. Two questions came up while playing with it:
a) The transparency feature seems not to be working on plane objects like a window.
b) How is it possible to change the whole drop setup to a single mesh (baking the drops)?
Kind regatds – Ron
Thanks, I am glad you like the rig. The transparency feature is designed for objects like bottles. I hadn't thought of someone using the rig for a window. I will address this in a forthcoming update. As to baking, this is a Python thing which will also be addressed in the update.
Great – thanks for the info.
When do you expect the update to be released?
Bottles, cans and glasses yes – but I immediately thought of making a rainy window scene which works quiet well except the interscting meshes …
About 6 months.
Hello Dan,
thank you for this great rig for a nice price.
I have two questions:
1. When I follow your video I drag the selection tag which determines where the drops should appear into the object slot.
But what is the selection slot for ?
2. Is it possible to influence the – too- perfect shape of the spheres ? Or even to add own drop objects to the rig ?
I´m not a Xpresso/coding type, so maybe the last question is a litte silly.
Best regards,
1.) The selection slot is for those times when you do not want drops interfering with the refraction or see-through beauty of the hero drops the camera can see. I usually do not put drops on the back of a bottle for instance as they make the front drops look busy and dirty.
2) The spheres you refer to are, I am assuming, the MIST spheres. These are meant to be perfect as they are also meant to be really small. If you want imperfection, work with the SMALL and MICRO droplets and increase the size between them so they retain more individual shape. Hope this helps.

Hello Dan,
thank you for that beautiful rig for a nice price.
I have two question:
1. Following the demo video I do this:
I use the "object slot" to drag the selection tag into it. But what is the "selection slot" for ?
2. Can I influence the – too – perfect round shape of the spheres? Or even replace the spheres with my own models of drops ?
I´m not the Xpresso/Coding type of guy – maybe the last question is a little silly ;-)
Kind Regards
Hello Dan,
thanks for reply.
At what mail address can I sent the file?
Can you see my mail address what I leave here?
I can´t add the file here.
Kind regards Ralf
Hello Daniel,
may I ask a question?
I bought spritz and I have a problem because I use Vray for C4D as a render engine.
Your sample bottle and can are round about 4,5 meter. So the settings are perfect wits this size.
In Vray the model are normally in scale 1:1, so my bottle is 30 cm. And I have the problem now the the size of the tears and drips not fit. The are to big in the smallest settings. The drops works.
Have you any tips or solutions for me?
I don't know how can I change the setting in XPresso.
Kind regards Ralf
Please email me your file and I will see what I can do.
Did there end up being a solution to the scale issue? I am working in real world dimensions and the drops are very large. I can scale many of them down but some bottom out.
A scaling option would be nice in a future update.
Scaling will be addressed in a future update.
Hello Dan! Great rig, question regarding on using other models with this rig, would you please make a quick demo on where to add one's object. Thank you!
I will have that up today.
The Replace Default Object video is up.
Awesome, thank you!
Hi Dan! I'm sorry to ask this, where would I find this new The Replace Default Object video? Thank you again for everything!
To the right of the 'watch demo' thumbnail.
Thank you very much for pointing me in the right direction. Thank you Dan!

Great plugin!
Question: I can't get them to work on a cloner object. Is it poly only?
I just tried it and it worked. I loaded one of the presets, then created a cloner and dropped a cube into it, sized the cube down and dropped the cloner into the object field of Spritz and voila! Keep in mind, it may take awhile to refresh. If you are still having problems, email me your file and I will take a look. Thanks!
Hi!nice rig.
Just one question.The bool-option,does it cut the inner bit away,or does it leave the intersection part behind?
Not quite sure what you mean. If you want true, perfect transparency, I would use two objects with a very tiny gap between them.
Hi, I can use my own models with this rig right? I often use cloth nurbs on glass bottles to add thickness, this will work fine with the droplet intersect?
Send me your file and I will test it. You can use your own models but I haven't tried the rig with cloth nurbs. I usually model the whole object.
Hi Dan,
I purchased this rig, just starting to play around with it, what was the GSG lighting rig that you used for this demo?
I have similar questions too. No answers yet? What happened to the developer?
The developer is right here. There is often a delay in my receiving these notifications, perhaps because I live in Canada. As with Mark above, if you have a file you are unsure about, email it to me and I will test it, then email you back a render.
the TRANSPARENCY option doesn´t work (R14) in my project…
A reply has been emailed to you. The moderator has my responses in a queue.
It works with any shape or only which are in browser models…?
It works with any shape.
Hi there. Very nice rig! are the droplets animatable? Also, can it be used on other bodies/objects such as tomatoes, lettuce etc?
You can use your own objects. All parameters are animateable but you might experience jumping or unusual effects, depending on what you are animating and how fast you change the parameters.
Hi There looks wonderful !
Is this working well for animation purposes or is it more a tool for stills. THX for your effort creating this. !
This is primarily designed for stills but it can certainly be used for animation.

- Patterns! One way to create an air of femininity is through the pattern papers you select. This romantic Floral design from Attic Boutique is a perfect choice for a romantic, feminine look!
- Pearls! Nothing says "Girls" better than "Pearls"! I could not resist mimicking the Doily pattern of this designer paper by adding three different sizes of Basic Pearls.
- Dazzle! Dazzling Details add soft sparkle to the centers of the flowers in this Apothecary Art label. (Tip: For even more sparkle, dust with Dazzling Diamonds while still wet!) To get the narrow border around the label, I paper snipped around the stamped image, and then adhered it upon the Framelits label which is the same size as the original stamped image.
- Blossoms! Poppy Parade blossoms were snipped from a second Apothecary Art image and used to accent the sentiment. I used the Simply Scored tool to form creases at each end of the sentiment, which I then folded to form an elevated banner.
I hope you enjoyed today's card. Don't forget, I will be selecting one of you to be it's new owner. As always, your comments are important to me, and I do appreciate each and every one of them. Of course, I am always available to answer any questions you may have about the cards that I create and the techniques that I use. I am only an email away! Until next time...

CNET has an interview with PayPal Chief Technology Officer Scott Thompson. It's mostly about PayPal's technology and anti-phishing tactics, but does have one question on Google Checkout.
Can you comment on the competition you might be seeing from Google Checkout? Have you seen any loss of market share or revenue?
Thompson: …as it relates to Google Checkout, where as you would expect we are very aware of what they are doing, we don't think they are in a payment system business. We think they are specifically in a check-out business, and there is quite a bit difference between checkouts and payments. I would argue that we have such a lead in the business of global payments that if somebody wants to chase after us a little bit, I think they are going to realize it's hard to do, and I think they will fully appreciate and understand the head-start we have. Nobody here is overly confident, but I think what we need to do is have a strategy and focus on that and not on any competition.

Skylights can help to bring natural light into an otherwise dull, dark and drab space. If you have a home that is North or South facing, skylights can do wonders for the sunlight that could be flooding into your home. Instead of turning on lights all of the time, it can be helpful just to let the natural light filter in to do its work.
Skylights don't have to be just boring, old rectangular punch-outs, either. They can be circular, dome like, set at an angle and so much more. Stained and frosted glass options are available for those without a whole lot of privacy,and even add an attractive visual element to the ceiling.

And you and Sho are being pimped again on myspace for secret service or something or other. The ads are alternating, but look out - your face is just HUGE when it does come up, Mr. "Drew Barrymore".
That kid playing Showalter was spot on! Funny stuff.
You're lawyer moves fast, I get a message saying the video is no longer available.
Michael, did you intentionally remove the full-text feed from FeedBurner? The rss feed only has snippets now, was this on purpose? I hope not.........
I think it's cute how their little voices crack. Whipper-snappers. So cuuuuuute. I'd like to peench them right on their little kitten noses.
The guy did a great job as playing michael but how can someone fail with such a great character as michael.
Ben is right! My Google Reader shows snippets only!
I'll be a...
Ok, ok. Hold on to your horses everybody, just hold on. Deeeeeep breath. Exhale. And...good.
I say we blame a glitch in Google Reader, shall we? Benefit of the No Doubt (featuring Gwen Stefani), yes?
However, should we find out that you, Michael, broke the full text feed on purpose? You'll be forever considered QUITE naughty! Quite naughty indeed!
They could have at least worn suits. Without the suits, this skit makes no sense to me.
I agree with Susanna. Without the suits, I was just lost.
I think David Wain found it on YouTube. To answer your question.
haha! that was cool. I bet you all feel very weird...or very proud...or a mixture of both
Well, I'm not too impressed. They could have shaped the big white box into something more interesting,like a rombus, or made the little red x in the corner a different color.
I hate dial up.
Just an FYI, I just watched the clip again and didn't have any problems with it.
Hrm. Agree with Susanna and Bailey. Need suits.
There's also things like this that confuse me:
I found it by googling for "Kimberly DiLazzio" It's just a cut and paste of your roller boogie entry by someone not you.
Oops, someone told me it's "rhombus".
My 5 yr old thinks she's sooooo smart.
That link Jmez has there - that guy is putting up your blogs on his myspace page as if they are his own. !!! Taking full credit. !!!
Let's kick some ass!
Plus, are you done voting? Can you sit a spell and tell us stories now? We've been waiting patiently (like a bunch of creepy ghost children).
I just noticed that too Reen! Indignation! WTF mate?!
For shame for shame for shame Der Ryan. If you are reading this, you need to be a good boy and cite your sources. I can give you the intricacies of MLA citation if you like or discuss the pitfalls, ethical and practical, of plagiarism. Or just give you this really scalding and judgey dissapproving look. . . . (look) . . . (loooook) . . . (looooook/tsk tsk tsk) . . .
(It just breaks your heart, doesn't it? I've really been working on it). . . .
Holy shit you got a PERSONAL E-MAIL from DAVID WAIN? That dude is mega famous! You should print it out and clip it to your resumé, or maybe just get a t-shirt made of it for convenience. Then start wearing t-shirts in public and there you have it: People Magazine's "Stars Are Just Like Us" page. Guaranteed.
haha i know these guys i went to school with them since like forever. the most amazing funny guys ever =]
That is the back of my head, right in the middle :)
This was for a drama class performance back in high school! I remember it fondly. Those guys are all hilarious.

Seattle, WA (SportsNetwork.com) - Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Percy Harvin's first game in nearly two months ended after only one half, as the injury-prone playmaker sat out the final two quarters of Saturday's 23-15 win over the New Orleans Saints in the NFC Divisional Playoffs due to a concussion.
Harvin hit the turf hard when attempting to make a touchdown catch late in the second quarter and was taken to the locker room after being helped off the field. The Seahawks confirmed that the offseason acquisition sustained a concussion at halftime and would not return.
The game was only Harvin's second since being acquired from Seattle from the Minnesota Vikings during the offseason. The versatile wideout underwent arthroscopic surgery in August and missed the team's first 10 contests before facing his former team on Nov. 17. He was held out for the remainder of the regular season after experiencing swelling and stiffness in his hip.
Harvin caught three passes for 21 yards prior to exiting Saturday's win.

High RPM problems with my Cadillac
My cadillac deville is having engine problems. It was having trouble starting (I would have to hold
down the gas pedal and keep the engine idling so it would stay on and not stall out). I took it to a
mechanic and it decided to work fine for him, but he said he cleaned out the throttle body and reset
a few computer codes. After I got it back, I noticed the car seems to jump when I slow down and the
car shifts into 1st gear, but it happens at random. Over the last few days though, the engine has been
idling at higher and higher RPMs, usually above 1000 when I'm stopped. Today, I was driving back
from work, and on the highway it was staying close to 3000. What is wrong? What can I do to fix it?
Can I take it back to the mechanic and have it fixed? Because it wasn't running this bad before he
worked on it.
2 Answers
What codes were they? High idle is often caused by an intake leak.
ive changed the tps sensor and the mass airflow sensor on my deville i had the problem of high idle after i changed them after 50 some miles it stopped i was told it has to cycle for the computer to accept the sensor being that he probly unhooked the mass air flow sensor and tps to remove throttle body to clean most likley thats ur problem unless he sprayed cleaner on the mass af sensor if not using the right kind could ruin it causing same problem

A highly promising junior prospect in his teens, Rudez left his native country early, but blossomed only after he returned home and joined KK Split in 2006. His performances led him to a place on the 2008 Olympic team where he made his national team debut, but it took him three more years to return to the squad. A zero-point outing during three games at EuroBasket 2011 just shows the lack of consistency that has kept Rudez from even bigger roles, and minutes with the national team. However, with his speed, size to play both forward positions and help on the boards, as well as dedication to improve his game, Rudez developed into a dangerous shooting threat from the wings that can be an important asset to coach Repesa's team.

|Atonic seizure
|Classification and external resources
|Atonic seizure
|Classification and external resources
Atonic seizures (also called drop seizures, akinetic seizures or drop attacks), are a type of seizure that consist of a brief lapse in muscle tone that are caused by temporary alterations in brain function. The seizures are brief - usually less than fifteen seconds. They begin in childhood and may persist into adulthood. The seizure itself causes no damage, but the loss of muscle control can result in indirect damage from falling. Electroencephalography can be used to confirm diagnosis. It is minor and relatively common, and can be indicative of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome (see Henri Gastaut).
Atonic seizures can occur while standing, walking or sitting, and are often noticeable by a head drop (the neck muscles releasing) and damage sometimes results from hitting the face or head. As with common epileptic occurrences, no first aid is needed post-seizure, except in the instances where falling injuries have occurred. In some cases, a person may become temporarily paralyzed in part of his or her body. This usually does not last longer than 3 minutes.
There is no specific treatment for patients with a seizure disorder. Each treatment plan is tailored to the individual patient based on their diagnosis and symptoms. Treatment options may include medical therapy, nerve stimulation, dietary therapy, or surgery, as appropriate. Clinical trials may also be a valuable treatment alternative. Usually, anticonvulsivants are given based on other symptoms and / or associated problems. Due to the fact that the areas of the cerebellum which determine increases and decreases in muscular tonus are close together, people experiencing atonic seizures are most likely experiencing myoclonic ones too, at some point. This may play a role in therapy and diagnostic.[1]

There Once Was a Time When the Super-Rich Needed a Middle Class to Be Successful -- Not Any More
Stay up to date with the latest headlines via email.
America is falling apart — and this nation's super-rich are to blame.
There was once a time in America when the super-rich needed you, and me, and working-class Americans to be successful.
They needed us for their roads, for their businesses, for their communications, for their transportation, as their customers, and for their overall success.
The super-rich rode on the same trains as us, and flew in the same planes as us. They went to our hospitals and learned at our schools.
Their success directly depended on us, and on the well-being of the nation, and they knew it.
But times have changed, and the super-rich of the 21st century no longer think that you and I are needed for their continued success.
And in some ways, they have given up on America, period.
As Paul Buchheit brilliantly points out over at AlterNet, "As they accumulate more and more wealth, the very rich have less need for society. At the same time, they've convinced themselves that they made it on their own, and that contributing to societal needs is unfair to them. There is ample evidence that this small group of takers is giving up on the country that made it possible for them to build huge fortune."
Buchheit goes on to say that, "The rich have always needed the middle class to work in their factories and buy their products. With globalization this is no longer true... They don't need our infrastructure for their yachts and helicopters and submarines. They pay for private schools for their kids, private security for their homes. They have private emergency rooms to avoid the health care hassle. All they need is an assortment of servants, who might be guest workers coming to America on H2B visas, willing to work for less than a middle-class American can afford"
Unfortunately, these millionaires and billionaires who have given up on America and on the working class are in control of the political process in this country.
They have brainwashed Republicans into thinking that the success of working-class Americans no longer matters for the future of this nation.
As a result, Republicans are no longer investing in things that have traditionally made America - and the working-class - successful.
Take America's infrastructure for example - or lack thereof.
According to the American Society of Civil Engineers annual report card on America's infrastructure, America's infrastructure is a mess.
Our roads are falling apart, our transportations systems are in turmoil, and our energy and electrical systems are stuck back in the 1900's.
A new graph released by investment research firm BCA shows why.
Non-defense related infrastructure spending was around $325 billion per year when George W. Bush stepped foot inside of the White House.
Today, it's around $235 billion per year, a $90 billion drop in funding from when Bush took office.
Republicans, brainwashed by America's super-rich, have repeatedly refused to fund comprehensive infrastructure spending bills, all in the name of austerity.
But cutting funding to the nation's infrastructure isn't the right way to address American's debt or spending problems. And it certainly isn't the right way to rebuild this nation.
As Cardiff Garcia over at The Financial Times points out, "It's also likely that much of the investment that has been forgone in the name of fiscal consolidation will have to be made eventually anyways - only it will be made when rates are higher, exacerbating the long-term fiscal outlook rather than improving it. And as Think Progress points out, "continued underfunding in this arena over the coming years will cost businesses a trillion dollars in lost sales and cost the economy 3.5 million jobs."

Last night after Mass, the parishioners at St. Michael's Episcopal Church in Ozark served a broccoli and cheese soup, a tortellini soup, a salad, and a fruit salad of sorts. I didn't have any of the tortellini soup as it contained meat, but the broccoli and cheese? Are you kidding me? I had two bowlfuls, one with additional cheese and tomatoes added into it.
In addition to all that, we had sweet and non-sweet teas.
The Episcopalians really are a welcoming Church, in so far as I've had an experience with them. I told the priest forthrightly that there would be more Episcopalians if people actually knew the Church existed. When their sign says, "The Episcopal Church Welcomes You," they also mean, "We'll feed you, chat you up, and invite you to return again."
Anyway, the broccoli and cheese soup makes my mouth water thinking about it even now.
How's everyone enjoying the warmer weather? It's actually in the 80s outside right now! The perfect kind of weather for my cold bones that stay cold.
Also, guess what? Next Tuesday will mark something very, very exciting; can you guess what that is?
If you guessed "The Yum Yum celebrates its second anniversary," then you would be absolutely correct! Yay!
The other major thing I'm craving now is ciabatta bread and brie, but Chris said he and Jim are getting me some. I have no idea where my love for brie came from; it's so incredibly delicious and wonderful, like eating cream. I bet a pizza made with brie would be out of this world.
Speaking of out of this world, has everyone seen Jupiter and Venus in the night sky recently? It's amazing to know that we can see the brightness of our planets all the way here at Earth. They're quite close to one another and quite bright on top of that. The larger of the two planets in the sky is Venus, as its closer and therefore brighter. That sounds strange to say, since in reality, Jupiter is far larger than Venus, but I'm factoring in distance here.
Also, if anyone's interested in coming to Mass at an open, loving, diverse, and friendly congregation, you're welcome to come to St. Michael's on Sunday; the service is at 10:30, and Sunday school is at 9. Right now, the Church is having Lenten services on Wednesday nights at 6 PM, so you can come to those, too.
Get your nosh on, everyone.

Hillary Clinton Is Such a Tease
Hillary Clinton certainly knows how to play the keep 'em guessing game, doesn't she?
The Secretary of State is one of the most popular politicians in the country and the overwhelming favorite for the 2016 Democratic Presidential nomination. She knows how valuable her brand is, and she's not afraid to dangle a big carrot in front of reporters' noses.
She's long insisted that she plans to step down after the election and repeatedly claimed to have no interest in running for the country's highest office again (we can hardly blame her). But a recent Wall Street Journal interview (subscribers only, sorry) has the political classes chattering about the possibility of big future moves from a woman with more political capital than anyone else around.
Some choice takeaways from the interview:
- Hillary calls herself a representative of the "American brand" engaging in "public diplomacy"
- She loves the fact that her job doesn't require her to blow dry her hair
- Regarding a 2016 run, she has officially "ruled it out."
- She plans to step down if President Obama wins re-election, but says "A lot of people have talked to me about staying."
And—here's the big one—she calls the prospect of her staying with the administration "unlikely."

Texas silver mine, border county's largest taxpayer, shuts down
Lorne Matalon
The history of silver mining here is long and colorful.
After two years of hopes of an economic injection to a poverty-plagued part of the border, a Texas silver mine is shutting down at least until next year. 85 people are jobless, the mine's under a safety investigation and the company is ruffling feathers by taking one of the country's poorest counties to court to cut its tax bill.
Fronteras reporter Lorne Matalon from Marfa Public Radio reports.

Abel was Hall of Fame material, and a member of the 1943 Cup-winning Wings team. He was in the twilight of his distinguished career, but Ivan knew that Gordie Howe and Ted Lindsay could both bring out the best in Abel and also cover for his slowness by having two bolts of lightning on his sides.
Detroit finished first overall in the regular season standings for seven straight years in the 1950s, but Abel's last year with the Wings was '51-'52. Jack Adams sold the aged star to Chicago, but not without reason. There was another young centre in the farm whom he felt could replace Abel on the Production Line. His name was Alex Delvecchio, a guy who wound up playing 24 seasons with the Wings, an NHL record for continuous service to one team, and who would also become an Honoured Member of the Hockey Hall of Fame. And so, with Howe and Lindsay now in their prime and a rookie at centre, the Production Line II was born, a threesome equally effective and talented and blessed with complementary skills that could dominate a league.

LA Galaxy stalwarts A.J. DeLaGarza and Juninho expecting to be ready for MLS Cup Final date with New England Revolution
CARSON, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy are expecting to be back to full fitness -- or at least close to it, when they kick off in the MLS Cup Final against the New England Revolution on Sunday.
A.J. DeLaGarza (left hamstring strain) was the most glaring absence from the squad that dispatched Seattle Sounders FC on Sunday, but in an interview with reporters the morning after, the 27-year-old said that he expects to play in MLS Cup this weekend.
"I feel a lot better. I've been working out the last couple of days, but I didn't train too much in the buildup to the last game against Seattle so it wasn't right to go out in a situation like that especially on that turf. You saw that Osvaldo Alonso was not himself and he had two weeks to get ready for that," said DeLaGarza. "I'll be fine this weekend. I'm going to get back into full training."
Another question mark is Juninho who played the hero for the Galaxy with the series-clinching goal against the Sounders. It appeared that the Brazilian suffered an injury in the 87th minute that forced Bruce Arena to pull him from the match when a subsitution of another banged up player (Marcelo Sarvas) was already in the cards.
Despite needing to be helped off the field, Juninho insisted after the game that he'll be ready for Sunday's meeting with the New England Revolution.
"It was so cold out there and at the end of the game there is a lot of pressure so I felt a cramp," said Juninho. " I'm good though. I'll be good for the next game."
There will be an an LA Galaxy connection on the Brazil squad named for their upcoming matches against Colombia on Sept. 6 and Ecuador on Sept. 9.
Ricardo Goulart, the younger brother of Galaxy midfielder Juninho, was named to the 22-man squad for the U.S. based friendlies on Tuesday. The September games will be the first for the Selecao under new head coach Dunga and the first since the South American nation was unceremoniously dispatched from the 2014 FIFA World Cup with a devastating 7-1 defeat to eventual champions Germany on home soil.
Goulart, 23, plays for Brazilian club Cruizero and is current goal scoring leader in the Brazilian Serie A with eight goals for the Belo Horizonte based club.
"My family and I are very happy that my brother has been called into the national team," Juninho told LA Galaxy Insider on Tuesday. "I've been with him throughout his career and it's such an honor to see him represent our country. I hope that this is the start of a long career for Brazil for my brother."
CARSON, Calif. -- There's no question that Juninho is enjoying a career year with the LA Galaxy so far in 2014.
The Brazilian midfielder's two-way ability has helped LA break up opposing attacks while also sending penetrating balls forward to spark Galaxy counterattacks. But for all his success in the midfield, one aspect of his game is missing—goals.
To date, the 25-year-old midfielder has managed 23 shots -- nine on frame -- and three assists, but has yet to find the back of the net, a fact that is not lost on head coach Bruce Arena.
"He's fitter, he's more involved over 90 minutes and he understands his positioning a bit better," said Arena. "But his finishing hasn't been as good as it has in the past. We'd like to see him get a goal or every now and then."
However, Juninho expects that the team's change from a diamond formation to a more traditional 4-4-2 formation over the past several weeks will allow him to get back to scoring ways.
"For me particularly, [the formation] is much better. I am very familiar with it and I can score goals. [I can] go forward, and try to create more chances for the team," said Juninho. "This is my style. For me it's good, for the team I think you can have to ball more. It's our older style, older formation, so our team is very familiar with that.
"In the diamond, I'm a holding midfielder. I have to stay with our backline and I can't leave that spot. But with two midfielders, I can go forward," said Juninho. "Even though I haven't scored yet, I'm going to put more pressure on myself [to score] and I will do my best so that we can win."
While Arena agrees that theoretically, this formation should help Juninho get forward, but he's waiting for it to pay off.
"Regardless of where he's playing or the system, he's capable of getting us a couple goals in the season," said Arena. "His finishing needs to get better."
The LA Galaxy are off this weekend and as a way to recharge their batteries ahead of the long MLS season, the team's Brazilian contigent got into the Samba-spirit after training on Thursday and had a little bit of sing-a-long through the halls of StubHub Center.

Juninho and Marcelo Sarvas hoping to wrestle control of the game away from Cristian Pellerano and the Tijuana midfield
CARSON, Calif. – In what promises to be a match played a breakneck pace, controlling the midfield will be vital once the LA Galaxy take the field against Club Tijuana at the Estadio Caliente on Tuesday.
The task of slowing the game down will not be an easy one for Galaxy midfielders Juninho and Marcelo Sarvas as they'll look to stifle Tijuana's dynamic midfield pairing of Fernando Arce and Christian Pellerano.
In the second half of LA's 1-0 CONCACAF Champions League quarterfinal first leg victory last week, Pellerano was particularly effective, pulling the strings as Tijuana tried searched for equalizer. With Tijuana needing a goal to get back into the series, limiting the box-to-box midfielder's chances at goal will be key for LA.
"[Pellerano is] a very good player. He was a very calm player, he looks to control the game and dish the ball across the field. Marcelo and I have talked about him a lot this week," said Juninho. "We've also got to be mindful of [Arce] as well, so we've got to be prepared and pay attention at all times."
Although the two midfielders pose a major threat for LA, Sarvas believes that if LA can slow down the frantic pace, the team can force Tijuana into uncomfortable positions.
"We have to be in good spots and not give up space. But the most important thing is that every time we go forward, we have to [get shots off] which allows the team time to go back and defend again," said Sarvas. "We've simply have to delay the game as much as we can whether it's with fouls, corner kicks, free kicks, or throw-ins because as time wears on, they're going to get nervous and make mistakes."
It's that time again when we make our resolutions for the New Year in hopes of making our lives just a little bit better.
To properly ring in what promises to be an eventful 2014, I decided to make a list of LA Galaxy New Year's Resolutions. Now this list ranges from my own thoughts about what the team needs to a few other ideas on how to improve the team and MLS in the New Year.
* Build toward the future: continue to offer playing time to younger players like Jack McBean, Rafael Garcia and Greg Cochrane. One of the team's greatest successes of 2013 was that head coach Bruce Arena afforded plenty of valuable game time to players like the three aforementioned youth. With international commitments and injuries likely to cause problems yet again, the Galaxy boss should continue his policy of giving time to emerging young talent.
*Deal with change: There will be some notable absences from the LA Galaxy roster in 2013, but none will be bigger than the departures of longtime right-sided player Sean Franklin—who was selected in Stage One of the MLS Re-Entry Process by D.C. United—and Jose Villarreal who was sent on a year-long loan with Cruz Azul. Both players were frequent contributors a year ago and will need to be replaced in the coming weeks.
*Allow Juninho to receive more responsibility in the attack especially on free kick situations. The Brazilian midfielder saw his offensive impact stunted in 2013, but he'll be expected to carry more of the load next season especially on set piece opportunities.
*That being said, LA must show more resilience on defending set pieces and second ball opportunities to prevent the deficiencies that caused the club to fail last season. We've gone over this one many, many times.
*Find a new center forward to play alongside Robbie Keane to add a natural target striker to the Galaxy attack. During the club's final media availability of 2013, Arena stated that finding this type of player was priority number one for LA ahead of the next campaign and with the transfer window open; the Galaxy will have the chance to get their man. With a target presence alongside Keane, Landon Donovan could transition back to the right midfield and offer greater width to the midfield.
*Build off what was learned in 2013: Continued production from Marcelo Sarvas and Jaime Penedo. LA's two breakout stars in 2013 were Marcelo Sarvas and Jaime Penedo who became regular members of the Galaxy starting XI by season's end, but production must continue to progress into 2014. For Sarvas, he'll likely need cede some of his offensive responsibilities to his midfield partner Juninho and contain his physical exuberance that caused him to lead MLS in fouls committed last year. Meanwhile, Penedo must continue to progress as a goalkeeper and cut down on mistakes that led to goals down the stretch.
*More professional growth from Gyasi Zardes and Robbie Rogers. The two attackers experienced inconsistent seasons in 2013, but the New Year brings greater expectations for both to provide reliable contributions for LA. If the pair can develop into offensive weapons, LA may have an added attacking dimension—particularly on the flanks— that was sorely lacking last season.
*Be more successful: Make a strong run in the U.S. Open Cup. The LA Galaxy have gone out in the third round in the U.S. Open Cup to the Carolina RailHawks each of the last two years, but with no CONCACAF Champions League waiting for them in the fall, a long run in the Open Cup should be beneficial for the team to provide minutes to their entire roster. Also, winning the USOC will help place the team back into the CCL for the 2015-16 tournament.
*Continue see the LA Galaxy Academy grow and produce players who could become valuable members of the first team in the future. LA Academy forawrd Haji Wright garnered a lot of the headlines toward the end of the year, but LA's academy teams are continuing to show promise in the form of players like Adonis Amaya, Jaime Villarreal and many others.
*Good health to Robbie Keane who is recovering from surgery on both of his Achilles as he looks to get ready for the preseason. The Galaxy are hoping to have their captain back to full health by the start of preseason, but what is most important is having him fit and ready for the start of the season and the all-important CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal against Club Tijuana in March.
*Travel More: Get off to a strong start against Club Tijuana in the CONCACAF Champions League Quarterfinal and keep dreams of the FIFA Club World Cup alive. The LA Galaxy's quest for continental glory begins in March as they host the first leg of the CCL quarterfinals against Club Tijuana. With a victory at home, the Galaxy will be in strong standing as they look to advance past Xolos and reach the CCL semifinals for a second consecutive year in front of a hostile crowd at Estadio Calliente.
*Prosperity for Omar Gonzalez and Landon Donovan as they look to make their World Cup dream come true. Both Galaxy Designated Players appear to be strong candidates to make U.S. National Team head coach Jurgen Klinsmann's squad for the 2014 FIFA World Cup, but both will need to stay healthy and in form to ensure a place on the plane to Brazil. If they're able to reach Brazil, the pair is likely to be in Klinsmann's starting XI and can expect to be major contributors as the U.S. hopes to advance from Group G over the likes of Ghana, Portugal and Germany. Here's hoping for more moments like this one from four years ago.
*New ventures for the coming year: New MLS Television deals. Southern California is spoiled with the great Galaxy coverage on the Time Warner SportsNet and Time Warner Cable Deportes, but in 2014, MLS will look to negotiate their new national television deals which will play a major role in the league's growth going forward. More financial resources from national television partners can only help grow the league which hopes to be among the world's best during the next decade.
*Continue to foster a connection with the readers of this blog and all content on LAGalaxy.com. What truly makes my job worthwhile is interacting with all of those that enjoy my work on the LA Galaxy Insider Blog and LAGalaxy.com, and in 2014, I hope to have greater interaction with you the readers so that we can place the type of content that you're looking for on this space.
Happy New Year.

The German authorities founded Auschwitz Concentration Camp (Konzentrationslager Auschwitz) in 1940 on occupied Polish land that had been annexed to Germany. Like other concentration camps, Auschwitz was a state institution, administered by the SS and funded by the state treasury, which earned income from labor performed by prisoners hired out to companies.
While continuing in this function, Auschwitz also became one of the key elements in the mass extermination of Jews from all over Europe from 1942 on. On a lesser scale, prisoners from almost every ethnic group in Europe were also incarcerated and exterminated in Auschwitz Concentration Camp.
Consisting originally of a single camp, Auschwitz expanded constantly until, at the peak of its growth in the summer of 1944, it had become a complex of about 40 camps, holding 135,000 prisoners.
The two principal camps were located in Oświęcim (Auschwitz I-Stammlager) and Brzezinka (Auschwitz II-Birkenau), to use the nomenclature from the period of November 1943 — November 1944). The former of these housed some of the prisoners and also contained the commandant's headquarters, the main administrative offices for the entire camp, the central warehouses, and the first, "old" crematorium and gas chamber, which operated from the autumn of 1941 to the autumn of 1942.
Founded in March 1942 and covering an area of about 150 hectares, Auschwitz II-Birkenau contained prisoner barracks, gas chambers, 4 crematoria with a daily throughput calculated by Nazi officials at 4,416 corpses, and a complex of 30 warehouses for the personal belongings confiscated from the victims. From 1944, a three-track railroad spur was operational inside the camp; this is where the selection of mass transports of Jews was carried out (earlier, in 1942-1943, transports were unloaded and selection carried out on the platforms outside the camp).
The camp administered an area of approximately 40 square kilometers of land at the confluence of the Vistula and Soła rivers. Aside from the Oświęcim suburb of Zasola, this zone also contained the villages of Brzezinka, Babice, Broszkowice, Budy, Harmęże, Pławy, Rajsko, Skidzin and Łęki, from which the Germans expelled several thousand Poles, plundering all their property in the process.
The so-called sub-camps (KL Auschwitz III-Aussenlager) were scattered throughout the Upper Silesian Industrial Region. The Auschwitz prisoners in them performed unpaid slave labor, mostly in German coal mines, mills, armaments plants, and at the large building sites for new industrial facilities of importance to the German war economy. When the prisoners had been worked to exhaustion, they were sent back to Auschwitz-Birkenau and killed.
As they withdrew from Auschwitz in 1945, the Germans destroyed most of the camp records, blew up the gas chambers and crematoria, and set alight the warehouses full of property plundered from the victims. The majority of the wooden barracks that housed prisoners were dismantled after the war; the chimneys left standing show where they were located.
The number of SS men and female SS overseers was increased in proportion to the number of prisoners and the spatial expansion of the camp: the garrison numbered about 700 in 1940, about 2,000 in June 1942, 3,342 in August 1944, and 4,480 SS men and 171 female SS overseers on January 15, 1945. A total of over 8,000 SS men and about 170 female SS overseers served in Auschwitz over the period during which the camp operated.
Initially, the camp administrators and sentry garrison were recruited from the garrisons of other concentration camps. Over time, the ranks began to be filled as well by members of the Waffen SS (frontline units) and, from 1944, by older or disabled soldiers from the Wehrmacht and the Territorial Riflemen (Landesschützbataillonen - a total of about 500 men), who were incorporated into the SS after undergoing training.
The ethnic makeup of the garrison, however, remained unchanged. The whole time, the garrison was, aside from a few exceptions, entirely German (including Austrians, who were acknowledged and treated within the Third Reich as Germans and who, in many cases, and especially among the active Nazis, regarded themselves as Germans). At first, the garrison was made up of Germans from Reich territory. Over time, ethnic Germans from satellite and occupied countries began to be recruited; in numerical order, they came from Hungary, Romania, Croatia, Poland, Slovakia, Lithuania, and Estonia. No attempt at organizing non-German sentry units ever succeeded. The creation of a Ukrainian sentry company (8-U-Kompanie) was indeed attempted in March 1943. When the Ukrainians discovered in July 1943 what the function of the camp was, they deserted.
In sociological terms, the SS garrison represented all strata of German society; they were, in a certain sense, a representative sample in terms of education and occupation. About 70% of the garrison had elementary education, 20% had secondary schooling, and 5.5% had higher education. The average age of garrison members was 36. After the war, only about 800 former SS men from Auschwitz were put on trial.
At least 1,300,000 people were deported to the camp, of whom at least 1,100,000 perished. Some estimates of the number killed are as high as 1,500,000.
Auschwitz victims can be divided into two basic groups:
In 1942, while still remaining a concentration camp functioning within the organizational structure of the Inspectorate of Concentration Camps, Auschwitz also became one of the key elements in the Endlösung der Judenfrage operation—the planned, total extermination of the 11 million Jews living in Europe. In cooperation with their allies, the Germans carried out 50% of the plan, murdering some 5 to 6 million Jews in Europe. Of this total, Auschwitz (Birkenau) accounted for about 20% — one million people. The signal for the commission of this enormous crime was the decision on the part of the highest German authorities to murder all the people of Jewish origin they could lay their hands on. According to camp commandant Rudolf Höss, good train connections and the possibility of camouflaging the extermination process there dictated the choice of Auschwitz-Birkenau as a mass-extermination site.
Once the mass deportations began in 1942, the Jews became the most numerous ethnic group in Auschwitz. A total of about 1,100,000 Jews were deported to Auschwitz from 1940 to 1945; some 960,000 of them perished there (865,000 of them in the gas chambers immediately after arrival, and about 95,000 of the 200,000 Jews registered as prisoners). About 135,000 Jews were transferred to other camps as part of the distribution of labor resources and the final liquidation of the camp. The decided majority of the Jewish victims of Auschwitz came from outside Poland—from western, northern, central, and southern Europe.
The first mass transport of Jews noted in the camp records brought 999 Jewish women from Slovakia on March 26, 1942.
Jews were deported to Auschwitz from Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, Slovakia and Yugoslavia in 1942.
Transports of Jews from Belgium, France, Germany, Greece, Italy, Latvia, the Netherlands, Norway, Poland, and Yugoslavia arrived in 1943.
Transports of Jews arrived from Belgium, France, Germany Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, and Slovakia in 1944.
a - within their prewar borders b - within the wartime borders
Poles were the most numerous among the approximately 200,000 non-Jews deported to Auschwitz. About 140-150,000 Poles were sent to the camp. Half of them, some 70-75,000, died as a result of starvation, executions, routine killings, and sickness. In relation to the Poles, Auschwitz was carrying out the guidelines of the German Third Reich's policy in occupied Poland.
The fundamental goal of this policy was to eliminate the Polish state and its institutions, to exploit its material and labor resources, and methodically to remove its local population through expulsion, resettlement, the limitation of fertility, the acceleration of the death rate, and systematic extermination. The Polish lands were to be thoroughly Germanized by means of settling a German population in the depopulated territory.
Defining the aims of his attack on Poland, Hitler told a meeting with Wehrmacht commanders on August 22, 1939, a week before invading Poland, that "For the time being I have prepared my Totenkopf [Death's Head] units only in the east, ordering them to kill men, women, and children of Polish extraction and the Polish mother tongue ruthlessly and without mercy. Only in this way can we acquire the living space that we need... Poland will be depopulated and settled by Germans."
Nazi leaders frequently referred to Hitler's words that called for the destruction of Poles in order to create living space for Germans. Two who did so more than others were Hienrich Himmler, the head of the police apparatus, and General Governor Hans Frank. At a meeting of the commandants of various camps in occupied Poland on March 15, 1940, Himmler said that "all skilled workers of Polish background are to be used in our war industry. Afterwards, Poles will disappear from the world. . . . Every German's time is coming. That is why it is necessary for the great German people to see their main task in the destruction of all Poles."
After a meeting with Hitler on March 17, 1941, General Governor Hans Frank declared in the presence of the General Government's undersecretaries of state, police and SS chiefs, district governors, and department directors that "the Führer is determined to make this country purely German in the course of 15 to 20 years."
The extermination of Poles in Auschwitz was a part of this plan to depopulate and Germanize the country. Political prisoners involved in the underground struggle against the occupation regime and persons suspected of such involvement; members of the Polish intelligentsia and especially teachers, career and reserve officers, and priests and nuns; the mentally ill; the residents of depopulated villages in the Zamość region; Warsaw residents expelled from the capital during the 1944 Uprising; and Poles apprehended in random roundups on city streets and at railroad stations all perished in Auschwitz.
The Gypsies were the third most numerous group of victims. A small number of Gypsies, estimated at several hundred, were deported to Auschwitz in 1940-1942 and registered in the general series of prisoners. The number of Gypsies in the camp began to rise rapidly only as a result of a January 29, 1943 decision by the Main Reich Security Office to deport whole Gypsy families to Auschwitz. A total of about 23,000 Gypsies were incarcerated in Auschwitz. The decided majority of them came from Germany and Austria, the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, and the Białystok district. Other countries, such as France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Norway, Slovakia, Hungary, and Yugoslavia each accounted for less than 1% of the total.
They were placed in a special camp in Birkenau (BIIe). About 20,000 Gypsies perished in the camp. About 6,500 were killed in the gas chambers. The largest group, consisting of about 3,000 men, women, and children were killed by gas on August 2, 1944, during the liquidation of the Gypsy camp. The remainder were transferred to camps in Germany proper.
The extermination of Gypsies in Auschwitz was a fragment of the German Third Reich's criminal plans for the almost total elimination of Gypsies. It is estimated that from 200,000 to 5000,000 Gypsies perished as a result of executions and imprisonment in various camps
From 1941 to 1944, about 15,000 Soviet prisoners of war, from various ethnic groups within what was then the Soviet Union, were brought to Auschwitz. Almost all of them perished there. About 3,000 were killed by being shot or gassed immediately after arriving, and about 12,000 perished from starvation and exhaustion. At the last roll call, only 92 prisoners of war remained in the camp.
Because of the changing situation on the battlefront and the Third Reich's economic difficulties, plans to create a large POW camp in Auschwitz-Birkenau, holding about 200,000 people and equipped with a crematorium with a daily capacity of 1,440 corpses, were never realized.
Aside from the prisoners of war, at least 6,000 civilians from Byelorussia—the majority of them ethnic Byelorussian men women, and children apprehended in pacification operations against Byelorussian partisans—were deported to Auschwitz, as were at least 1,500 Russians and at least 600 Ukrainians, most of whom were apprehended while fleeing from compulsory labor in Germany.
In addition to those enumerated above, more than 10,000 prisoners from other ethnic groups were imprisoned in the camp.
According to ongoing, still incomplete research into the fragmentary source material, the most numerous among them were:

A few days ago, small market Red Sox president Larry Lucchino accused the Yankees of not adapting to baseball's changing tactical landscape, by stating that the Bombers are still "relying heavily on their inimitable, old-fashioned Yankees style of high-priced, long-term free agents."
While Lucchino is a Class A D-Bag, it's hard to argue against (although Randy Levine tried) a team that is the defending World Series champion and owner of one of the best farm systems in baseball.
However, the last two Yankee deals have us encouraged. The Gardner deal was very solid, and perhaps even a discount. And signing Andrew Bailey to a minor league deal could pay dividends late in 2014, and even 2015. This is the type of forward thinking we've been clamoring for. Even our boy Ken Davidoff called the Gardner deal "the most sensible of the Yankees offseason."
There's a long way to go though. The front office made an old team even older. It's a very thin roster and a major injury or two could derail the season. And the infield is…well…insert your own adjective.
Yet, these last two deals are a move in a more modern direction. Add in reports that the Yankees are planning a major spending spree for amateur international free agents and are making changes within the farm system — could it be that Hal/Levine/Cashman realize their methods need to change ASAP if the club plans on being a sustainable elite force?
The Gardner & Bailey deals are only a small sample, but we hope the front office continues along this path.
"I collect spores, mold, and fungus."


text: Psalm 122Esther 7:1-10Revelation 1:9-20Thomas Fuller said, "We never know the worth of water till the well is dry." For the people of Mozambique, the well didn't exist until about three years ago and so they have always known the worth of water. The United Church of Christ in Mozambique (UCCM) and Global Ministries partnered to create the Water Well project, a program that has helped provide safe drinking water for the Machaze District of Mozambique. The lack of clean drinking water is a serious problem, in particular for women and girls who travel great distances on foot, risking their safety and often times sacrificing their education opportunities to provide water for their families. Plans to construct a second well has begun – a project that will reduce the travel time and distance for more families who live far from the current well location. The local government supports training of community members to keep the wells maintained and functional.

El Niño, characterized by unusually warm temperatures in the Pacific Ocean near the equator, caused a wave of January rainstorms in Sonoma County—and an early harvest in our garden thus far this season. On January 15, our white asparagus arrived two months early, so we recorded a video of Sous Chef Manuel burying the asparagus to deprive the spears of light and ultimately color. Two weeks later, the white asparagus was ready to be unburied, harvested and taken up the hill to our winery kitchen, where Manuel peeled the white asparagus, then tied the spears with string (both efficient and protective, as white asparagus is more brittle than green) before blanching. Here's a short video of the harvesting process and kitchen preparations.
