Do any of you all have recommendations for books on Construction Methods and Techniques for Heavy Civil or Transportation Works? I've enjoyed books that included stories about the construction of the Hoover Dam and even David McCullough's The Great Bridge. I'm thinking either books about projects or specific elements or types of construction. I've had some coursework about general Construction Materials and Methods. A lot of the design books i've had are focused on the design and the construction portion is minimal and secondary. Maybe you've run across a good state or federal manual about it too?

I am sitting here on a Friday and I started contemplating what the approach would be for the purchase of new hardware for small firms and one person shops. I've seen a hundred posts at least from students looking for recommendations for school or coming out of school etc or answers that point to the hardware requirements for specific software etc - this is not my question.

I have worked for larger / midsize / and state agencies before - all entities that supply computer to a specific standard - ie design engineers get this model with XX GB ram etc.

For those of you that consult on your own or are in a small firm (say less than 10 people or so, assuming that you picked your own machine) - w

Does Xfinity have the ability to automatically tune to a specific channel at a specific time of day or on a prescheduled plan? We are setting up my grandma's new xfinity system and she was asking about this. I know about reminders for specific shows or series - I think that's the closest thing, but in my experience, it doesn't automatically change the channel to those shows.
