My plan = run every time I read an article in Runner's World; read the entire magazine each month for 4 months
My hope = to end 4 months healthier and smaller and happier; and then keep going
My reasoning = seemed like a good idea at the time
I am not a real runner. Let's get that out of the way right now. I am a halting, shuffling, slow person who shambles painfully when I pick up my speed past a walk. My husband is the runner in this family, and I sometimes jog. But, that doesn't change the fact that each month, when Runner's World magazine appears in our mailbox, I am the one who reads it cover to cover like a book. I curl up in a comfortable place and read about people doing amazing things that require strength I wish I posessed. I read about people running 50 miles, about a guy who was hit by a car and still ran a marathon a year later, about a woman still recovering from a traumatic brain injury, and about the runs of countless others overcoming cancer or simply old age. I read the reviews and newbie chronicles like an addict, waiting to see what will happen next, although I strongly suspect that at this point the "Newbie" is more of a middle-bie since he's running longer than any new runner I know can. I read the shoe reviews as if I were going to buy them all, even though I know that the only thing I wear are my Mizunos, which fit like they're made for me. I read the whole entire thing, even the ads in the back.
The problem is that I do not get up and run. To be fair, I jog occaisonally. I jogged a lot once, even completing the Great Aloha Run of 8 miles with minimal walking and catching up to one of my runner friends (that was a triumphand moment). I use the term "jog" specifically, intentionally, and not derisively. I hesitate to call my movement running because my mother can walk faster than I run, so I call it jogging. I would love to move faster, but I don't, so it's a jog. Nothing wrong with it, at least it's moving.
That said, I do not jog enough. I started tracking my exercise a month ago, and since then have managed 11 moments of exercise, including walking. While this is better than my completely sedentary coworkers, it is not exactly impressive, nor does it quite do anything to improve my aerobic capacity, since I probably jogged 2 times in that 11, and even then it would have been for 30 seconds or so a time.
I have been very fat (pushing 200lbs) and I have been very thin (around 110). I have been healthy and graceful (a ballet dancer for over half of my life), and now weak and tired and shambling. I do not lift weights, I do not run, I do not dance. But, I read Runner's World cover to cover every month. This month, I was curled up on the couch with the May edition in hand when it hit me: I need to run. I need to make this a game. So, I decided to run my way through each month's magazine. I would randomly read an article, then had to go running before reading another. It was a great idea! Inspired, I got up, went upstairs and. . .got distracted by a random pile of laundry.
Two weeks later, I found the magazine while getting ready for work. I flipped randomly to "Rave Run" on page 15, and saw a beautiful picture of Lake Tahoe, in Nevada with a small runner in the left foreground so small he was an afterthought. I read about the 4.5 mile trail and wondered if it lead to the water. If not, it seemed pointless because I would enjoy the beauty but want to swim at the end.
As I started to flip to another article, I cursed quietly. I'd read an article. Time to "run." So, I put on my workout gear and went outside for a quick walk/jog. It was shambling and mostly walking with 3 running segments of about 30 seconds to 1 minute long. Nothing I would call a run. The first time I picked up my speed, I hurt. My steps were short and my knees ached. I didn't even want to think about what it looked like. I slowed to a walk and moved on into the next neighborhood, where I waved at the early risers (it was about 6:30), and tried picking up speed in a cul de sac. This time was a little better. I lengthened my stride and it hurt less and felt more like running. Then third time was on the way back, a quick loop around the same area I did the first little speed up. Again, it felt better, and I remembered how it felt when I was smaller and fitter. . .and then I ground to a walk that carried me through the rest of the walk.
According to Runkeeper, the run was 18 minutes and 7 seconds long, my average mile was 16 minutes 21 seconds, and I went 1.11 total miles. Yep, that's it. Embarrassing, huh? My fastest section was a 11 minute 29 second pace. . .like I said, my mom walks faster than that. I'm not sure I could have had a lower bottom from which to climb without having a catastrophic accident. Still, I moved, if only barely.
Speaking of bottoms. . .here's the rest of it:
RHR: 75-99 (it fluctuates)
Weight: 173.4
Waist: 34"
Hips: 44.5:
BF% (for what it's worth. . .I got it off my scale, so that's not exactly scientific): 35%
Head: off. . I just feel off, and I am sad often and miss how I felt when I was fit.
That's it. . .let's see how it works out.

Ion Torrent™ Next-Generation Sequencing Ion AmpliSeq™ Panels
Transform your research with ready-to-use, custom, and community panels
10 ng of DNA per pool
PCR-based target selection
Up to 6,144 primers per pool
One to hundreds of genes
96 barcodes for multiplexing
Single-day from DNA to results
2 hours to design custom panels
3.5 hours target selection & library preparation
The most comprehensive gene coverage with the least amount of DNA
Ion AmpliSeq™ technology delivers simple and fast library construction for affordable targeted sequencing of specific genes or genomic regions. Based on ultrahigh-multiplex PCR, Ion AmpliSeq™ technology requires as little as 10 ng of input DNA to target sets of genes, making sequencing of FFPE samples routine on Ion PGM™ Systems.
Alternative target selection methods are lengthy and complex and require large amounts of DNA, making them impractical for sequencing DNA from the formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues that are commonly used in translational and clinical research. Using just 10 ng of FFPE DNA and one pool of 6,144 primer pairs, variants can be identified in a single day using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Custom workflow. By contrast, the same project using alternative workflows requires 100 times as much DNA, 8 times the pools, and twice the time.
Choose among a wide variety of Ion AmpliSeq™ Panels to transform your research:
Ion AmpliSeq™ Ready-to-Use Panels
The convenient pre-designed Ion AmpliSeq™ Ready-to-Use Panels offer extensive gene coverage for cancer and inherited diseases and allow researchers to focus on data generation and analysis, not on the labor-intensive primer design and target selection steps.
Ion AmpliSeq™ Custom Panels
For maximum flexibility, simply select a subset of the targets and enter your specific genomic content online using Ion AmpliSeq™ Designer and we will design and create customized Ion AmpliSeq™ Panels just for you. Choose from a number of reference genomes or upload your own reference sequence.
Ion AmpliSeq™ Community Panels
Designed with leading disease researchers, Ion AmpliSeq™ Community Panels provide the ability to selectively analyze gene content as well as the possibility to customize any pre-designed community panel to meet your specific research needs.
Ion AmpliSeq™ single-day workflow
- Construct libraries using the Ion AmpliSeq™ Panels, Ion AmpliSeq™ Library Kit, Ion Xpress™ Barcodes if multiplexing, and 10 ng of your DNA sample per pool.
- Transfer the libraries to the Ion OneTouch™ System for fast and automated template preparation.
- Sequence libraries on the Ion PGM™ Sequencer in just 1.5-4.5 hours. Complete automation options allow the three final steps—run sequence, analyze data and annotate results—to be completed hands-free and initiated at the end of the work day.
- Perform automated data analysis with Torrent Suite Software.
- Annotate and analyze detected variants using Ion Reporter™ Software automated analysis.

President Obama Announces $3.4 Billion to Spur Smart Electric Grids
President Obama announced the largest single electric grid modernization investment in U.S. history on October 27, with DOE tapping $3.4 billion in American Reinvestment and Recovery Act funds for 100 projects. The funds will be matched by $4.7 billion in private investments. According to the president, the smart grid projects will help build a "clean energy superhighway," with a goal of increasing energy efficiency and helping to spur the growth of renewable energy resources such as wind and solar power. The grants range from $400,000 to $200 million, and will reach every state except Alaska.
The smart grid grants will pay for installing more than 2.5 million smart meters, which allow utility customers to access dynamic pricing information and avoid periods of peak electricity use, when power is most expensive. The grants will also support the installation of other smart grid components, including more than 1 million in-home energy displays, 170,000 smart thermostats, and 175,000 other load control devices to enable consumers to reduce their energy use. The funding will help expand the market for smart washers, dryers, and dishwashers, so that U.S. residents can further control their energy use and lower their electricity bills. Such smart grid technologies can also better accommodate the use of plug-in electric vehicles and the production of renewable energy from customer-owned systems, such as solar power systems or wind turbines.
Much of the funding will support upgrades to the utility power grids, including the installation of more than 200,000 smart transformers, which will make it possible for power companies to replace units before they fail. Utilities will also install more than 850 sensors that will cover all of the electric grid in the contiguous United States, making it possible for grid operators to better monitor grid conditions and allowing them to take advantage of intermittent renewable energy, such as wind and solar power. Finally, utilities will install nearly 700 automated substations, which will make it possible for power companies to respond faster and more effectively to restore service when bad weather knocks down power lines or causes electricity disruptions.

Reading, Writing, and Rhythm: A Whimsical, Musical Way of Thinking About Teaching Legal Method and Writing
Charles R. Calleros
Arizona State University (ASU) - Sandra Day O'Connor College of Law
Legal Writing, Vol. 5, p. 1, 1999
This article is based on the author's presentation at the opening plenary session of the 1998 Conference of the Legal Writing Institute. The author's unique presentation utilized the teaching of a music lesson (rhythms in flamenco music) to provide insights on teaching legal method and writing. The presentation is offered here in the form of a play, rather than as a traditional scholarly article. The author demonstrates a variety of teaching techniques in the music lesson, critiques the techniques, and discusses the application of such techniques in the context of teaching law and legal method. In teaching music or legal method and analysis, the article suggests using 'existing schema as a foundation on which to build new structures' as a way to make a lesson more concrete and accessible to students.

Politics have a lot in common with movies.
Each relies on a carefully crafted script. Each production costs a lot of money, unless you go independent, which makes you a long shot at best. Each has plenty of drama, and critics grade the "actors" on their performances.
Why else would so many actors and entertainers end up in politics? In the spirit of the presidential election season, let's look at 10 examples of Hollywood exploring the democratic process. Let me forewarn you: Not on this list, because I haven't seen it yet, is "The Ides of March," the 2011 film with George Clooney, Ryan Gosling and Philip Seymour Hoffman -- don't impeach me.
I'm sure all candidates probably ask that question at some point.

text: I lend books once a month to a bed ridden neighbour of my mother-in-law. He really likes crime novels but recently I lent some Fantasy novels to him which he enjoyed. Thinking he may like a change (he's a private man and I have never actually met him), I was thinking some Dresden files and possibly the first couple Anita Blake novels. But I'm having second thought as I recall they were a bit more on the romance side any guys out there ever read these?

If you've savored a La Luna cupcake in San Francisco's Crocker Galleria or dipped into a tub of organic Love & Hummus at Whole Foods, you have La Cocina to thank. The San Francisco nonprofit is an incubator program for seriously talented -- and beloved -- chefs.
It's not capital that the incubator kitchen provides -- it's support, education and connections.
Since opening its commercial kitchen in the Mission District and launching the popular San Francisco Street Food Festival, La Cocina has helped many low-income food entrepreneurs, primarily women of color from immigrant communities, cultivate and formalize their culinary ventures into successful businesses. To date, there have been 38 women in the program; 15 have graduated and launched their own businesses.
Many start off as cottage caterers and end up with cult-favorite food carts and even restaurants with the help of La Cocina's recipe development expertise, technical and business plan assistance and market opportunities, including some killer internships. And, of course, that fabulous kitchen in a vibrant culinary neighborhood helps make their dreams -- and our taste buds -- come to life.
Below, we celebrate three soon-to-be La Cocina graduates -- Guisell Osorio of Sabores del Sur, Dilsa Lugo of Los Cilantros and Isabel Pazos of El Buen Comer -- as they prepare to unveil their first restaurants in the East Bay and San Francisco.
Isabel Pazos, El Buen Comer
Mexico City is famous for its comida corrida, home-style comfort food typically eaten in the late afternoon to keep the working class energized until quitting time.
These dishes are at the heart of Isabel Pazos' cuisine. Since moving to San Francisco from Mexico City in 2001, Pazos has been cooking these delights -- aromatic green mole with pork, sweet, crumbly chicken tamales and crunchy huaraches -- out of her home kitchen at Van Ness and 22nd. At first, her food went to friends and family. But when she made her first $100 selling sopes, Pazos, a mother of five, realized there was a demand for her cuisine.
"I always liked to cook but never thought I'd be a chef," Pazos recalls in Spanish, as a La Cocina staffer translates. Pazos launched her catering business, El Buen Comer, with the help of her husband and sons and got the immediate attention of La Cocina's executive director, Caleb Zigas.
In 2007, Zigas helped Pazos land an externship baking breadsticks for Delfina, a gig she loves as much as her long-standing spot at the Noe Valley farmers market. She says the best thing La Cocina did for her was help her learn how to manage her catering business.
"That's what built our fan base," she says.
This June, Pazos will open a Bernal Heights restaurant named El Buen Comer, in the spirit of Mexico City's fondas, or small stalls and eateries, that craft comida corrida. "I didn't know opening a restaurant was my dream until it happened," she says.
Dilsa Lugo, Los Cilantros
When you grow up in a family that harvests its own food and then study horticulture in college, starting a food business is almost a natural next step. Especially when Berkeley is your portal.
Dilsa Lugo moved to Berkeley from Cuernavaca, Mexico in 2003, and the lack of healthy Mexican cuisine in the East Bay at the time inspired her to start Los Cilantros, a catering business that used local and seasonal ingredients to craft the handmade tortillas, fresh ceviche and salsas passed down in her family.
"When I came here and saw the farmer's markets, I knew I could do it," she says. "I didn't want my son to grow up eating McDonald's."
Through community classes and the Bread Project, a nonprofit for home-based food entrepreneurs, Lugo joined forces with La Cocina, landing internships at Chez Panisse and A16, and eventually, a sous chef position at Joanne Weir's Copita in Sausalito, where she cooked for 14 months.
"They make you feel like you're not alone," Lugo says of La Cocina. "They trust in you."
At the end of March, Lugo will take over the kitchen at La Peña Cultural Center in Berkeley, where her focus will be breakfast (dulce de leche-filled churros), lunch (tortas, papas con rajas) and dinner on Saturdays. She's thrilled about the opportunity and sees it as the next step in pursuing her long-term dream: opening a mezcaleria in the East Bay.
Guisell Osorio, Sabores del Sur
It was Christmas of 2003 when Guisell Osorio, a "broke" former social worker, stayed up into the night baking 1,000 alfajores for friends and family. Osorio, who immigrated to Walnut Creek from Chile at 17, had tweaked a family recipe, replacing lard with quality butter and adding an extra slab of dulce de leche.
Within weeks, Osorio's catering business was born. With Sabores del Sur, she focused on those sweet buttery bites as well as hearty beef and chicken empanadas.
In 2005, through the Women's Initiative for Self-Employment, Osorio attended a presentation about La Cocina -- and became La Cocina's first applicant and one of the first to ever use its kitchen.
"I was the guinea pig," she recalls. "I've had the opportunity to watch all my sisters grow. That's what we call each other."
Over the years, Osorio says her biggest challenge has been learning to market and sell her food. Through La Cocina, she earned a spot at Outside Lands, the huge music and food festival at Golden Gate Park, and developed her own packaging and logo. She learned payroll and accounting. She acquired a small business loan.
Today, Osorio has 20 employees, but she still does her own shopping, deliveries and invoices -- and wakes up at 4:30 a.m. to man her stall at the San Ramon farmers market.
"It's one thing to grow your business, but it's another to get a text from a customer saying, 'I'm coming today because I miss your cookies, but I also miss your hugs,'" Osorio says. "I love my customers."
You can find her alfajores at select Whole Foods or at Osorio's new restaurant, Sabores del Sur, which she plans to open on her birthday, April 17, just across the street from Pleasant Hill BART. In addition to Chilean pastries and empanadas, the cafe will serve churrasco (grilled meat sandwiches), Chilean salads, Peruvian pork and Equator coffee.

La Cocina
La Cocina's doesn't just help up-and-coming culinary entrepreneurs. You can take artisan cooking classes at the San Francisco facility, shop the online market and join the fun at the annual San Francisco Street Food Festival on Aug. 16. Learn more at www.lacocinasf.org.

November 1, 2005
The driver of a logging truck says it wasn't anything he could do to prevent a fatal accident involving a Richmond County deputy on his way home from work. It happened on River Road, also known as the Highway 56 spur. The area is known for heavy logging traffic. And as News 12 takes that some route with a truck driver, we're on your side when it comes to driving on the same road with big trucks.
"I done seen the worse and I done seen the safe ones," said George Washington, truck driver.
George Washington has been driving trucks for nearly 40 years.
We get a view of a trucker's life.
"This is River Road we're on River Road right here," Washington said.
Washington says River Road has heavy logging traffic.
"He fully loaded," Washington said.
And when you're fully loaded, the longer your trailer is the more room truckers need.
"He gone pull almost in the center of the highway before he turns," Washington said.
And Marshall Jordan says that is exactly what he was doing, swinging his rig out far just to get it into his driveway. He just finished dropping a load off at the mill.
"When I was coming in I looked up the road and there wasn't anything coming. I swung out around the edge of the pavement to come in my driveway and once I get to the edge of the road, bam," Jordan said.
31-year-old Richmond County Deputy Shane Hamilton was killed when his car ended up under the trailer of the truck. He was on his way home from work.
"I saw oh, Lord it done happened here," Jordan said. "Wasn't anything I could do because it happened so quickly I didn't even see no car coming."
George says he has had so many close calls.
"Slow down, give truck respect, cause you can't win, you cannot win with a truck," Washington said.
And while the cause is still unclear, it's a wake up call for all.
The autopsy results are not back on Deputy Hamilton. Another truck collided after the initial wreck. That person was not hurt. State patrol says they are still investigating and haven't issued any citations at this time.

What better than a sunny September day to take The Bartlett Inn's Summer Employee (Ozgur from Turkey!) on a sight seeing day and where better than for a ride up the Mt Washington Auto Road in Pinkham Notch NH. We like the sign that says not a good road to drive if you have a fear of heights at the beginning of the road! A little frightened we put the truck into 1st gear and went for it! What can we say…spectacular views at every turn and the top too! We enjoyed lunch at the canteen and the museum in the bottom of the observatory. One perk of driving up is that you are not limited by the time of the returning coach or cog train. There are many hikes that can be done from the top too! On teh way back to the Bartlett Inn there is nice short hike to Glen Ellis Falls off Route 16 .
Call Bartlett Inn to stay and Innkeepers will check the Mt Washington Weather Observatory Weather Cam and reports for the best visability day to visit the top during your stay. We also offer discount vouchers for the Auto Road saving you $8! Call 1 800 292 2353 Bartlett Inn a great location to visit the Auto Road or the Cog Railway or to hike to the summitt of MT Washington, NH!

They've come up short in the playoffs both times, eliminated with a pair of disappointing early exits. The Penguins are playing better defense so far this season, and embattled goalie Marc-Andre Fleury is leading the way.

News 12 at 11 o'clock / Thursday, Dec. 20, 2012
EVANS, Ga. -- Lakeside grad Ryan Clark was one of the first victims in the Virginia Tech shooting five years ago. So, Ryan's mother knows all too well what it feels like to be a Newtown parent right now.
Now she's using her experience to help honor the families and victims and send a message of hope all the way from Columbia County.
Twenty-six chimes -- one for every victim. And 26 homemade angels for the souls now up in heaven.
"I have asked that angels be placed on our community tree as a gesture to Newtown that not only do we love them and care about them, but we feel their pain," mother Letitie Clark said.
A heart twice broken after Clark's son was killed in the Virginia Tech shooting five years ago.
She says hearing of the Connecticut shooting was like reliving it all over again.
"I can understand, and I feel their pain of what the families will be going through, not just now, but for many years to come," Clark said.
After experiencing her own tragedy, Clark says she knows how important community is.
And now, even 900 miles away, she wants her hometown to support Newtown the way they supported her.
"Distance does not make a difference. I thought that CSRA should be a model for what a community does when such tragedy occurs," Clark said.
Neighbors and friends braved the rain to show their support.
"Coming here in the rain and being together, singing together, is our witness against the darkness," she said.
"As a country we can band together because we're all members of one giant family," supporter Ashlyn Horney said.
As a mother remembers her own angel, she places 26 new ones on the community tree.
"Angels are God's way of giving us light, and I know those 20 children are the brightest light on the Christmas tree this year," Clark said.
If you want to see them for yourself, you can head over to Evans Town Center Park.
The ornaments were handmade by the students at Blue Ridge Elementary School, and they're hanging on the big tree next to the Lady Antebellum Amphitheater.

Django Unchained!! SPOILER ALERT!!
I feel this movie deserves a thread all of its own. Who was Zoe Bell's character? IMO she was a relative of Dr. Schultz. The picture she was looking at was of a young Django and Schultz.

I have no idea who Zoe Bell's character was. I definitely have to see the movie again but I liked it the first time through. The real question about the film is this: Why the fuck did Quentin cast himself as an Australian?

I also thought the Australian role was weird. And is that even historically accurate? I don't recall Australia having anything to do with 1850s slave trade in the US.

I think those guys were just random Australians, who came to America to make their way like anyone else, and ended up being part of the slave trade. Quentin's acting isn't very good though. It wasn't as bad as Pulp Fiction, where he mutilated a crucial scene, but it was still pretty bad.
I think I may have come in late to the movie. Was there a scene before the opening credits?

SANTA CLARA -- Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is looking forward to Saturday's homecoming and seeing a "crew" come down from his Chico, where he grew up a 49ers fan.
"I have a lot of good memories growing up watching Steve Young and Joe Montana on TV and their Super Bowl wins," Rodgers told the Bay Area media in a conference call Tuesday. —... Obviously I'm real happy with the situation I'm in."
Rodgers, a Cal product, will be making his career debut at Candlestick Park when the No. 3-seed Packers visit the No. 2-seed 49ers on Saturday in a divisional playoff game.
Rodgers noted that he has played in the stadium before: in the 2008 exhibition season, when he was 9 of 16 for 58 yards as the Packers moved past the Brett Favre era.
Rodgers was a finalist with Alex Smith as the 49ers debated who to select first overall in the 2005 draft. The 49ers picked Smith, and Rodgers wasn't selected until 24th overall by the Packers.
Rodgers and Smith have become close friends since that 2005 draft process, including golfing together in Lake Tahoe's American Century Championship last July. Less than two months later, Smith won their head-to-head battle in the season opener at Green Bay, 30-22.
"It's been a long time since the (draft's) green room," Rodgers said. "I think he's a very classy guy."
Although Rodgers recently remarked that Smith needs to go to a team that "appreciates" him more than the 49ers, Rodgers wouldn't weigh in Tuesday on the 49ers' midseason promotion of Colin Kaepernick.
"He's a big, strong, athletic, young player with a really bright future," Rodgers said of Kaepernick.
Rodgers spent his first three seasons as Favre's backup. In his second season as a starter, Rodgers led the 2010 Packers to a Super Bowl XLV victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers, winning three road playoff games before delivering an MVP-winning effort in that Super Bowl.
Rodgers didn't want to compare this season's playoff run to the Packers' from two seasons ago, but he did recognize a trend that could help the Packers.
"The NFL, the last few years, has shown us the hot teams are going to make the run in the playoffs," Rodgers said. "Road teams have been successful the last few years."

Eye-witness evidence from inmates at Auschwitz
7.34 Over the years a large number of Jews who were, or at least claimed that they were, imprisoned at Auschwitz have given accounts of their experiences. The quality of their evidence is variable. Van Pelt explained that he placed greater reliance on those eye-witnesses who provided their accounts of what transpired at Auschwitz shortly after the war ended. Later accounts were vulnerable to the charge that the witness had become confused by the passage of time or had been influenced by what others had claimed. The witnesses upon whose accounts van Pelt was inclined to place reliance included the following.
7.35 Vrba, as already stated above escaped from Auschwitz and was one of the first to provide an account of the mass killing at the camp. On that account he is regarded by van Pelt as a significant witness. Vrba did not himself enter any of the gas chambers; he passed on what others had told him. But, as administrator of the sick barrack, he knew about the selection process. He described how those selected were loaded onto trucks and claimed that they were taken away to be gassed. He gave an account of the inauguration at Birkenau at the end of February 1943 of a new crematorium and gassing plant. He stated that there were four crematoria in operation. He described in some detail (albeit, as van Pelt accepted, at second hand) the layout of the interior.
7.36 Sonderkommando Salmen Gradowski kept a diary of his experiences at the camp which he buried in an aluminium can. Schlomo Dragon remembered where it was buried. Remarkably the can and its contents were found intact and dug up after the liberation of the camp. The can contained a notebook and a letter dated 6th September 1944. In the letter Gradowski explained that it was his aim to preserve a written account of what had happened at Auschwitz. He wrote that this task became even more important once the Nazis started to burn the bodies of those they had killed and to dispose of the ashes in the River Vistula. He said that he and fellow Sonderkommandos had scattered the teeth of the dead over a wide area so that they might be found by subsequent generations. Gradowski claimed that the Jewish nation had been destroyed in the camps. He recorded that he and fellow camp workers had planned a mutiny. (The uprising took place in October 1944. It failed and Gradowski was tortured and killed). In his notebook Gradowski described his journey by train to the camp and the selection process on arrival. He gave an account of the living conditions for those deemed fit for work. That notebook did not contain descriptions of the work of the Sonderkommandos.
7.37 On 10 April 1945 Radio Luxembourg broadcast the account of an unnamed survivor of Auschwitz, who had subsequently been evacuated to Buchenwald. In the interview this witness stated that Auschwitz was an extermination camp which killed between 12,000 and 20,000 people a day. He described how the transports arrived, how the selection took place, and how those who were chosen to die were killed instantly and cremated.
7.38 Stanislaw Jankowksi gave evidence to the Polish Central Commission in 1946. He was the first Sonderkommando to testify before the Commission. He said that he worked in Crematorium 1 from November 1942 at which time it was only used sporadically for killing people. He described an occasion in November or December 1942 when a large number of inmates from Birkenau arrived under escort. He and the other Sonderkommandos were ordered to leave. When they returned they found only clothing. He was put to work carrying the corpses to the crematorium for burning. In July 1943 Jankowski was transferred to Birkenau and worked at Crematorium 5. He described how large number of Jews of various nationalities arrived at the camp. About half of them were selected for gassing, including the old and infirm and the pregnant and children. He stated that those who were to be gassed were not given camp numbers or registered at the camp. His evidence was that the killing reached its zenith with the Hungarian Jews in about July 1944 when, he claimed, 18,000 were being killed per day. Jankowski reckoned that Crematoria 2 and 3 had a daily incineration capacity of 2,500 corpses while Crematoria 4 and 5 could incinerate 1,500.
7.39 Schlomo Dragon, another Sonderkommando, gave evidence on 10 May 1945 to the Polish Central Commission. Dragon had worked at bunker 2 and crematoria 4 and 5. Van Pelt commented that, while Dragon was precise when he talked about what he has witnessed in person, he was less accurate when it came to estimating the number of people killed in Auschwitz, which he put at four million.
7.40 Sonderkommando Henry Tauber worked initially in crematorium 1 and later at crematoria 2 and 4. He also gave evidence to the Polish Central Commission. He gave a detailed account of the undressing rooms at the gas chamber, the signs which hung on the walls, the glass peep-hole in the door and how the doors were hermetically sealed. Further, he described the ventilation systems; how the floor of a gas chamber was to be washed and how the chamber in crematorium 2 was split into two in late 1943 by a dividing wall. He gave an exceedingly detailed account of the operation of crematoria, making it clear what he accepted on the basis of his own observations and what he accepted as hearsay. He described dragging gassed corpses from the gas chamber and loading them five at a time onto trucks which ran on rails to the furnaces where they were off-loaded. He described the three, two-muffle furnaces and said that each muffle would take five corpses. The incineration took up to one and a half hours. He explained that thin people burned more slowly than fat people. In summary his description of crematoria 2, both below and above ground corresponded very closely with the outline given in the blueprints. Van Pelt considered that Tauber's testimony is almost wholly corroborated by the German blueprints of the buildings and that it corroborates the accounts given by Jankowski and Dragon. Tauber estimated that the number of people who were gassed during his time at Auschwitz, between February 1943 and October 1944, was two million people from which figure he extrapolated that the total number gassed at Auschwitz amounted to four million.
7.41 Michael Kula was another former inmate of the camp who gave evidence to the Polish Commission. He had lived near Auschwitz before his incarceration. Kula gave evidence that, a year after his arrival at the camp in 1940, he observed the Nazis beginning to experiment with Zyklon B. He observed that the corpses turned greenish after exposure to the gas. Kula worked in the metal workshop at the camp and forged many of the metal pieces required for the crematoria. He also took part in the construction of trucks for conveying corpses into the ovens. Kula testified that four wire mesh columns were made for the gas chambers in crematoria 2 and 3: these columns were described by Kula as "structures of ever finer mesh", which contained a removable can within the innermost column which was used to extract, after the gassing, the Zyklon "crystals" or pellets that had absorbed the hydrocyanide.
7.42 Marie Claude Vaillant-Couturier (to whom I have referred at section V(xviii) above in connection with the Defendants' criticisms of Irving's historiography) gave evidence to the International Military Tribunal of the conditions in the women's camp at Birkenau, including the sterilisation of women and the killing of babies of women who had arrived pregnant. She claimed that most of the Jewish women who had come from the same part of France as herself had been gassed immediately upon arrival at Auschwitz. Valliant-Couturier testified that the trains stopped close to the gas chamber; that the vast majority of the arriving Jews, including the old, mothers and children) would be selected for gassing; that they were made to undress and then taken to a room like a shower room into which gas capsules were thrown through an opening in the ceiling.
7.43 Severina Shmaglevskaya, a Polish inmate at Auschwitz, gave evidence she had seen many children brought to the camp. She had seen selections undertaken on some occasions by doctors and on others by SS men. She recalled that children were separated from their parents and taken off separately to the gas chambers. She stated that, at the time when the greatest number of Jews were being exterminated in the gas chambers, children were thrown alive into crematory ovens or ditches. She said that few of the children were registered, tattooed or counted. They were exterminated on arrival. As a consequence it was very difficult to know how many of the children were put to death.
7.44 Filip Muller, a Sonderkommando, gave an account in the 1970s of the process used to insert corpses into the ovens at crematorium 1. He described how trucks were used to transport the bodies to the ovens, how corpses were put into the ovens and the technical details involved in problems that arose during the process. Van Pelt pointed out that Muller's account accords with those of Jankowski, Tauber and Dragon. He considered that it is highly unlikely that Muller's memoirs were inspired by Tauber's testimony.
7.45 Janda Weiss, aged only fifteen years, was interviewed in 1945 by representatives of the Psychological Warfare Division of the Supreme Headquarters Allied Expeditionary Forces. She told them that she had been deported to Birkenau along with 1,500 Jews from Theresienstadt. She described how she was among the stronger ones who were selected to work in the camp. The rest of her family were taken off to be gassed. Weiss recalled her conversations with those who worked in the camps. She knew of the arrival of the Hungarian transports in 1944. She claimed that when transports arrived most of the Jews were selected to be gassed immediately. Having been told they were to have a shower, the victims undressed and went into the gas chamber. She recalled that when the room was full, small children were thrown into the chamber through the window. After the gassing Sonderkommandos pulled the corpses out took their rings off, cut off their hair, and took them to the ovens to cremate them.
7.46 Walter Bliss, a German Jew, was also interviewed. He too described the selection process which took place not only on arrival at the camp but also at regular intervals thereafter. He gave an account of a typical selection process: those selected for death were transferred to gassing barracks where might be kept for up to two or three days often without food as they were going to die anyway. He claimed that 40% of the men in the camp and 60-70% of the women were murdered in January 1944.

Beautiful! You make me want to bake them again BUT I have so much baked stuff here right now it is ridiculous. :)
I have that same flavoring on hand and have used it in buttercream icing before. It is super.
I use the scale I have for weighing rolls and braids but haven't really gotten into weighing ingredients. I bet it is faster. :)
Great job and super nice baking along with you as always,

|Skins & Trivia
- Development
- Maokai was designed by Volty.
- Maokai is voiced by Scott McNeil, who also voices Hecarim and Sion (after the rework).
- Maokai is an anagram for "I Am Oak".
- Maokai was named after a Riot artist whose name is Maokai Xiao.[1]
- He was also the concept artist for Maokai.
- Maokai's look, sounds, and attitude can be linked to the Ents in The Lord of the Rings saga.
- General
- Maokai was the first champion to be "born" on the Fields of Justice.
- Although design-wise, there is no clue that Maokai is an Oriental character like Xin Zhao. His name follows the Mandarin pinyin scheme like Xin Zhao (while Lee Sin's name is of different scheme). The official Chinese vendor translates his name as 茂凯 which literally means "lush (vegetation)-triumphant".
- His dance is a reference to the Harlem Globetrotters.
- Maokai shares a place with Poppy in having the highest base armor of any champion at level 18 (90 armor).
- During his Art Spotlight, a tab for Jarvan IV can faintly be seen at the top.
- Later during the Art Spotlight, a tab is seen titled "blindmonk", which refers to Lee Sin.
- During Maokai's Visual Update, the development team wanted to make his Twisted Advance look like so that Maokai roots a champion from the ground, similar to Zyra's Grasping Roots.
- Skins
- It is based on a totem, which is an animal or other natural figure that spiritually represents a group of related people such as a clan.
- It is only available during the Snowdown Showdown and through Gifting Center choosing Mystery Gift option, like other Christmas themed skins.
- Festive Maokai is based on the Christmas tree.
- In the picture frame on Festive Maokai's artwork, the Snowdown Showdown art for 2011 can be seen.
- It is only available during the Harrowing and through Gifting Center choosing Mystery Gift option, like other Harrowing themed skins.
- Haunted Maokai resembles part of a reanimated Graveyard.
- Haunted Maokai and Zombie Brand are the first skins that have animation on respawn.
- This skin is a tribute to April Fools Day 2016.
- This skin was influenced by Nyan Cat internet meme.
- This skin is a reference to Cody "Elementz" Sigfusson who mentioned "Meowkai" a lot of times in his streams.
- Maokai is a former nature spirit from the Shadow Isles that was forcibly bound to a tree once the land was corrupted. He despises the existence that was thrust upon him as he felt it was a corruption of nature and so fights as a soldier of nature.
- Maokai despises humans and their chaotic use of magic as it was responsible for his physical corruption and that of his home.
- Although Maokai and Malphite have different attitudes regarding their being brought to life, Malphite stated that he is "...proud to call the Twisted Treant my ally", suggesting that these two elemental champions get along quite well despite their differences.
- According to the League of Legends site, Maokai is rivals with Zyra, probably because of the difference in their attitude towards humans and the human world.

Frost Falcons 01 is looking for an additional pitcher to round out the year. We offer plenty of pitching time as our players pitch on a rotation. We will be hosting an open workout on Sunday, April 28th. If interested in being a part of one of the premier organizations in Chattanooga and the North Georgia area, email email@example.com or call Coach Rusty at 706-581-4 428.
A Brief History of the Frost Falcons
In 1983, Jim Frost coached his daughter Stephanie in a sport that was just up and coming for little girls in the Chattanooga area. Little did he know that his love of the game would develop and make positive changes in their lives and others in the Chattanooga and Northwest Georgia area who love to play softball! Jim Frost has been instrumental in the upgrade of several high school, middle school, and local recreational fields, such as Tyner and Warner Park. Frost Stadium at Warner Park, also known as the "Field of 1000 Dreams", is the center of activity for women's softball, serving as home for the UTC Lady Mocs. These facilities were built so that players would have the opportunity to play and be seen by college coaches. The stadium also helped Chattanooga host the ASA Nationals for 10U in 2010 and the 12u Nationals in 2013. The Frost Falcons ball club will carry on the legacy of all the hard work and knowledge that came before them, and will work hard to show the level that they are capable of playing.
ACTIVE is the leader in online event registrations from 5k running races and marathons to softball leagues and local events. ACTIVE also makes it easy to learn and prepare for all the things you love to do with expert resources, training plans and fitness calculators.

the mean wrote: Mrs. Mean is convinced that we should ditch DirecTV and get this thing, and therefore save a ton of cash, but I'm not really thinking it is the best idea.
I'm in the Reds local market, so I don't pay anything to watch baseball. The Roku MLB package is $100+ and I've heard there are buffering issues. Plus, because I am in the local market it looks like I can't watch on the Roku until the game is over. Plus maximum resolution is 720.
For football, I would have to buy the Sunday Ticket package for the computer, and then run my computer through the TV. I pay $200 now for the package. It looks like $350 for the full package with computer access. I can't imagine the quality is any good.
For basketball, I could get a cheaper package because the offer a "5 team" option, and I really just watch the Kings. However, the NBA package doesn't have seem to have an option to turn of the scores on the menu, so if I don't watch the game live, there is no way to get to it without seeing the score.
I could see having this IN ADDITION TO DirecTV, but it doesn't seem to make sense to replace DirecTV. Maybe in a couple years.

The Eagle County Historical Society will host its annual Nimon Walker Award reception Sunday, April 28, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. at the Eagle Public Library.
Nimon-Walker Award, established in 2001, recognizes individuals whose work has helped preserve the history of Eagle County.
This year's honoree is Jack Oleson. Oleson, 88, has spent most of his life in Eagle County and he is a life-long collector of antiques and artifacts. He has created a fascinating private museum near his home on the Diamond Star Ranch a few miles east of Eagle.
Oleson also spent hundreds of hours restoring historic buildings that are now located in the upper territory of that ranch. The restoration work often required dismantling, then reconstructing log buildings. The completed projects include a historic schoolhouse, complete with antique desks and a mannequin schoolmarm. He also restored the Cowden and Howl family homestead cabins, as well as the Oleson family cabin that his parents occupied near Gypsum when he was born. He is undoubtedly the only person in the county with a restored Conestoga covered wagon in his garage.
The Nimon-Walker event will feature keynote speaker Dr. Thomas Noel. Nicknamed "Dr. Colorado," Noel is a well-known Colorado historian. He is a Professor of History and Director of Public History, Preservation and Colorado Studies at the University of Colorado Denver. Noel is also the author of numerous Colorado history books and a columnist for the Denver Post. Dr. Noel will present a program featuring historic landmarks along the Colorado River.
With warmer temperatures coming, garden beds are screaming for attention and players with the Vail International Hockey Club have the situation in check.
For more than 25 years, Vail International Hockey has organized trips overseas for young local hockey players and the spring plant sale is an important part of raising the necessary funds.
This year, the organization is selling bedding plants, annual baskets, organic vegetables, basil and even compost to benefit a trip to eastern Europe in December 2015.
Local hockey players, ages 12-18, will visit six countries, including Russia, Ukraine, Poland, the Czech Republic, Austria and Hungary in what Eric Eves, the director of Vail International Hockey, describes as a "once-in-a-lifetime experience."
The kids will play approximately 12 games in 15 days, but "the games are actually a small part of what these trips are all about," Eves said. "The kids get to experience and learn about different cultures in a way your typical tourist can't even imagine. After the games, the players from both teams eat and socialize together. It can be a life-changing experience for some of these kids and hockey is the vehicle for making it happen."
This is the 12th year for the plant sale and orders must be submitted by May 1. Delivery dates are scheduled for May 19 and June 8. Eves says the plants are grown on the Front Range, but are designed to thrive at high altitudes. Customers in past years have included local businesses, landscapers, second homeowners and hotels.
If you would like to purchase some of these plants, please contact Michael Rawlings at 970-390-9233 or Julie Alt at 970-376-3270.
Some 25,000 volunteers from Berkeley to Boston and Sitka to Sarasota will give away half a million free books in more than 6,000 towns and cities across the U.S. on April 23, World Book Night. The Eagle Valley Library District will help distribute the books.
World Book Night was introduced in the United Kingdom and Ireland in 2011 to provide free books for adult readers, especially those who may not have access to books, and was launched in the U.S. in 2012.
The free books are special paperback editions of 30 titles selected for World Book Night by an independent panel of booksellers and librarians. World Book Night U.S. is made possible through the generosity of the authors, publishers, book manufacturing companies, and other partners and sponsors. Bestselling authors Ann Patchett and James Patterson are this year's honorary chairpersons.
The Gypsum Public Library will host a special book giveaway and reception on Tuesday, April 23, from 4:30 to 5:30 p.m. The book title that they will distribute is "Looking for Alaska" by John Green. The books are intended for members of the community who might not have the means or access to printed books and who are of high school age or older. At the same time, library staff will encourage all patrons to share their favorite reads. Refreshments will be served and the event is free and open to the public.
Staff from the Avon Public Library will be distributing books to the Seniors at the Maloit Park Senior Wellness Center, and the Eagle Public Library will distribute books to the Golden Eagle Senior Center. The book to be given to the seniors is Favorite American Poems (Large Print Edition).

Carroll County official returns missing jail documents
OSSIPEE — It appears that at least one file that was missing from the county commissioner's office has been returned. The way the file made its way back to the county complex calls into question what else might be missing from that office.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — A Chinese woman charged as part of what federal prosecutors say was a conspiracy to steal trade secrets from U.S. seed corn companies is free on bond.
A federal judge says the case against Mo Yun is weak and there are no reasons to hold her until the Dec. 1 trial as prosecutors had requested.
Judge Robert Pratt said in an order filed Monday that Mo must post $250,000 bond, wear a GPS monitor and remain under home confinement between 10 p.m. and 7 a.m. Mo can't travel to China to see her children, but may be allowed to go to California to see them under supervision.
She was arrested July 1 in Los Angeles.
Prosecutors say she helped others employed by her husband's company take seed from Midwest cornfields.

Editor's note: Lauren Glendenning works two shifts per week as a bartender at La Bottega. She was not present on the day La Bottega received its violation.
VAIL - State liquor enforcement teams have visited more than a dozen bars and restaurants in the town of Vail in two undercover operations since December, citing many establishments for serving alcohol to minors.
The Colorado Department of Revenue's liquor enforcement hit nine restaurants in Vail Feb. 15 alone - and five of those nine failed the test.
Business owners call them "sting operations," and those caught failing all accept responsibility, but they also have serious complaints about the way the state carries out these operations.
The Department of Revenue's Liquor and Tobacco Enforcement Division conducts compliance checks on businesses regularly, said Ro Silva, spokeswoman for the Colorado Department of Revenue.
"They send underage kids in to see if they can purchase liquor," Silva said. "If they do, then the business is notified of the violation."
That notification comes quickly, too. Marc Keleske, owner of Chicago Pizza in West Lionshead, said it all went down at his business in about three minutes.
Chicago Pizza doesn't have a bar where people sit and drink. Keleske said his restaurant is a popular family hangout, selling the occasional bottle of beer or glass of wine. On Friday, Feb. 15, there were about six to eight people at the counter when a young girl walked in and got in line. She ordered a beer, and Keleske's wife, Vicky, told her to grab what she needed out of the self-serve cooler.
"She opens it herself, sits down, doesn't pay for it," Marc Keleske said. "Within three minutes, the enforcement people come storming in with a big binder full of paperwork. The guy was smirking, saying, 'You got busted.'"
With more than 20 years in business, Keleske said it's the first time this has happened.
At Vendetta's, a popular Italian restaurant and bar in Vail Village, owner John "Popeye" Brennen said the last time anything happened relating to serving someone underage was back in 1991, and that involved someone using a fake ID. But last December, the state enforcement sent a young woman into Vendetta's, and Brennen called the operation "totally deceptive."
"They purposely find somebody that's underage that looks 30 or older," Brennen said. "If we served them, then we did something wrong, but they make it pretty difficult."
Brennen said a girl who looked like she was in her 30s came in and started mingling with some ski patrollers who were at the bar after their shifts. She blended right in with the patrollers, who are regular customers, and then ordered a glass of red wine. Brennen said the bartender assumed the ski patrollers knew her.
"They totally drum up a way to be deceptive," Brennen said, adding that he doesn't dispute his restaurant's responsibility to check identification for alcohol purchases.
Brennen said the sting operations are detrimental to the valley.
La Bottega owner Steve Virion agrees. His restaurant received its first-ever violation Feb. 15, and while Virion said the fact remains that his bartender served someone he shouldn't have, the enforcement operation felt like a trap.
A woman came into the bar and started asking a lot of questions about the wine list, Virion said.
"It's not normal that a 19-year-old girl knows all this wine terminology - obviously they've been coached," Virion said.
In each case, the state works out a stipulation agreement with the business, Silva said. The liquor licensee has a choice between either a liquor license suspension or a fine for a first offense, she said. The fine is 20 percent of the average daily sales for the month in which the violation occurs.
The person who served the minor - the bartender or server, for example - receives a class 1 misdemeanor criminal summons.
Tammy Nagel, administrative assistant to both the Vail town manager and Vail town assistant manager, as well as the town's liquor board secretary, said there's often a perception that these enforcement operations are conducted by the town.
"We do not schedule these, we do not ask when (the state) comes, we do not know when they come," Nagel said. "They do it quite a bit. I can almost guarantee since they came (Feb. 15), they're coming again this week because there were fails, and now with a big event (the Burton U.S. Open) coming that draws in younger crowds."
There's no doubt the restaurants that have already been hit, whether they passed or failed, are more aware and cautious now, even if some of the owners are frustrated with the way these operations went down.
Virion and Keleske are talking to attorneys about their respective situations and are considering appealing their violations.
Assistant Managing Editor Lauren Glendenning can be reached at 970-748-2983 or email@example.com.

Savor the flavors of everyday real food, fresh from the garden or stored on your pantry shelves.
By Deanna Duke
recipes, fall recipes, pumpkin, rosemary, seasonal food, grilling, The Crunchy Chicken
My backyard grown sugar pie pumpkins are finally ripening up in spite of the steady rains we've been experiencing here in the Pacific Northwest. A few of the pumpkins ended up being somewhat small and weren't worth the effort to process into pumpkin puree. So, what to do with these little guys? I wanted to do something new and, not having grilled pumpkins before, I was quite excited to give it a try.
During grilling, the sugars in the pumpkin caramelize. The combination of sweet and salty, coupled with crisp rosemary, will give you a different way of thinking about pumpkin. After trying this, you just might find yourself dreaming of expanding your pumpkin patch next year.
Make sure you use sugar pie pumpkins or the equivalent for this recipe — you really don't want to eat a jack-o-lantern type pumpkin as they are stringy. If you aren't growing your own sugar pie pumpkins you should be seeing them available in stores and farmers markets this month or, better yet, make a fun trip out of it and head out to a U-pick pumpkin farm. Don't forget to pick up a few extra for making your own pumpkin puree for pies and breads later in the year.
Ingredients:Sugar pie pumpkins (preferably on the small side)Olive oilFresh rosemary, choppedSea salt
1. Heat grill to medium-high.
2. Wash and cut the pumpkins vertically into 3/4 inch slices. Remove the seeds and stringy parts. Brush both sides of each slice liberally with olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt and rosemary.
3. Place the slices on the grill for about 5 minutes a side or until dark grill marks appear. Turn and grill the other side until you can easily pierce the pumpkin slice with a fork. You want to make sure that the pumpkin is tender.
4. Since some of the salt tends to fall off during the grilling process, serve with a small dish of additional sea salt.

It's a story you'll see only on 12, a driver is dead after a jewelry thief hits him while running from police. The suspected jewel thief is in jail Thursday night, thanks to two citizens who helped authorities capture him.
The story starts off Highway 25 in North Augusta. Just before 11 a.m. officers say 21-year-old James Cobbert tries on rings at Stan Johnson Jewelry.
"The suspect placed two on his small finger, suddenly this individual pushes off from the counter and runs out the front door followed by the store owner," said Michael Frank, Aiken County Sheriff's Office.
The sheriff's office tells what happened next like this. Cobbert then jumps in a stolen Ford Focus. Someone notices the incident, follows the car onto Interstate 20 and calls the license plate number into officers. That begins a chase from I-20 to Highway 178 to Highway 302 in Pelion. Speeding, Cobbert passes a DOT worker driving in front of him. That's when he loses control and runs off the road.
"He came back into the roadway and hit the rear of the DOT Blazer, causing it to overturn over the left side of the roadway," said Bryan McDougald, SC Highway Patrol.
The DOT worker, though wearing his seatbelt, was thrown from the SUV and killed. The Highway Patrol arrests Cobbert, but the story doesn't end there. While getting medical treatment he runs again.
"My first reaction was wanting to go help," said Joshua Marchant.
Joshua Marchant, who works nearby, stops him.
"The guy jumped up and he run to this area right here. I pushed him and as soon as I pushed him back they jumped on top of him and had him arrested again," Marchant said.
James Cobbert is charged with strong-armed robbery by the Aiken County Sheriff's Office. Charges from the Highway Patrol are still pending.

U.S. Construction Spending Near Five-Year High
U.S. construction spending rose to its highest level in nearly five years in November, the latest indication the economic recovery gained momentum in the final months of 2013.
November outlays for construction projects rose 1% to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of $934.41 billion from October, according to a report from the Commerce Department Thursday.
The increase was driven by broad-based gains in private spending on everything from new housing to office buildings to communications facilities.
Private spending on residential construction rose 1.9% in November to $345.53 billion, the highest level since June, 2008. A separate report from the Commerce Department last month had showed November housing starts surged to a near-six-year high.
Private nonresidential construction spending rose 2.7% in November to $313.87 billion, its highest level in 11 months.
Some economists have forecast that a pick-up in investment in structures other than housing will be an important driver of growth for the overall economy this year. A recent survey of its members by the National Association for Business Economics forecast that nonresidential-investment growth will accelerate to 5.9% in 2014 from 1.7% in 2013.
The smaller public-sector component of construction spending fell 1.8% in November as all levels of government continue to wrestle with tight budgets.
