We've shown you a few clever ways to help make a small bathroom look bigger. Here are a few other design tricks to help you out, especially if you're not a fan of white-on-white, or don't have much natural lighting.
Minimize Transitions
Transitions are where one color or material meets another. If you have small spaces, or end one color part-way over a floor or wall, this can chop up your valuable space and make the room claustrophobic. To minimize transitions with hardware, bring vanities and cabinets all the way to the corner. You'll get more wall space and your bathroom will feel deeper. Also, keep your mirrors wall-to-wall if you can, both to minimize transitions and to reflect more of the room.
Use the Same Color, Tone, or Value
If you don't favor white-on-white, this is a good option for you. It follows the same principle, however: a room painted one color will feel much bigger. To keep the room from becoming "boring" or too static, confine dark or bold colors to a small vanity or floating shelves above the toilet.
Paint the ceiling the same color as the walls or one shade lighter. This will help hide low or odd areas and angles. It's also one less transition to split up the space. Be sure to keep the tiles a similar shade as well; this keeps the room from dividing.
Extend Tiles
This is a great way to make a small bathroom look bigger. Use the same tiling pattern for your standing shower and floor. This makes your shower look larger because it can be difficult to tell from the door where it ends. Or try bringing the tiles out of the shower to cover a whole wall. Done with gray or brown tiles, this can make your shower feel more like a spa!
Hang Tall Curtains
If you need more privacy than clear glass provides, or you can't install glass, pick tall curtains. Hang the rod as close to the ceiling as possible. You may have to buy longer curtains and liners, but the extra height makes the room seem taller than it is.
Install a Sliding Door
For those with a little more wall space by the entrance, remove the hinges and try a sliding door. You'll get the extra elbow room plus more light–something you might not find in a small bathroom with a swinging door.
Get Creative With Your Storage
A small bathroom means you might not have the space for extra furniture and fixtures. So you'll have to get creative to store towels, tissues, and products. This can greatly help make a small bathroom look bigger.
The back of the door often goes unused. Install a hook there, and hang towels on the back of the door. Floating shelves over the toilet also maximize often-wasted space.
If your toilet stands uncomfortably exposed, hide it from view of the door with a small bookcase or square storage unit. Not only will you get privacy you may need, but you can use it to store towels and toilet paper. Finally, try this behind your shower or tub when you remodel your bathroom!

Dell 435T BSOD-ish problem

I am new here and I have been looking on this site for a little bit to hopefully find an answer to my prob i've been having.
I have a Dell XPS 435T
Windows 7 64bit
6gb ram
Intel I7 2.67ghz
Ati Radeon 5450
I am almost certain that my problem is due to either a faulty video card or some sort of driver conflict. I have not made any recent changes in my computer hardware nor have i installed any new programs. The problem i have is the computer will crash randomly but more often than not when i am watching video on the computer or streaming video to my PS3.
When it crashes i DON'T have a blue screen ALL the time. More often now I am getting a crash screen which is basically a screen of scrambled pixel colors.. Not sure if that makes sense or not. Its bizarre. I've downloaded the SF Diagnostic tool and i'll post what it says if anyone thinks it's gonna gimme some answers
My BSOD message gives me this :
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.768.3
Locale ID: 1033
Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: 50
OS Version: 6_1_7601
Service Pack: 1_0
Product: 768_1
if someone can gimme a pointer or an idea of where to go from with this information i'd greatly appreciate it!

OK. So I got information from some of the dumps.
Do you have AVG and McAfee both installed on your computer?
If yes, please uninstall them. They are both very often a cause of BSOD-s.
Make scans with the following:
-Kaspersky TDSSKiller
1. Microsoft Security Essentials - Free Antivirus for WindowsDo not start the free trial of Malware Bytes; remember to deselect that option when prompted.
Run a full scan with both (separately) once downloaded, installed and updated.
*Update all network drivers.
Run the System File Checker. It allows the user to scan for and restore corruptions in Windows system files.
Upload a screenshot of your hard disk using crystal disk info:
Update the video card drivers:

I made these last night. They are wonderful!
The recipe says use an "ungreased" cookie sheet, but I have learned to NEVER do this. They always stick, unless you have a really top-of-the-line non-stick cookie sheet. I always use non-stick spray.
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 cup softened butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 (12 oz) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Cream sugar and butter; beat in egg and vanilla.
Beat in flour, cocoa, and baking soda on low speed.
Stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfulls onto cookie sheet 2 inches apart. Bake at 375 for 8-11 minutes. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheet.
Yields 3 dozen cookies.

SUNAMGANJ, Bangladesh --A tropical storm killed at least five villagers Saturday in northeastern Bangladesh, an official said. The storm also leveled about 3,000 huts in four villages in the northeastern district of Sunamganj, said Mozammel Haq, a local Disaster Management and Relief Ministry official.
Most of the victims died when their bamboo and tin homes collapsed on them, Haq said.
Sunamganj district is 110 miles northeast of Bangladesh's capital, Dhaka.
Pre-monsoon storms, accompanied by high winds and lightning, are common at this time of year in the South Asian country.

I've just returned from southern Chile - an expedition that has truly altered my mindset on several important issues. The land there is untouched and pristine – and wild places are being guarded by initiatives through people like the founders of Patagonia, the North Face, and even the company with whom we traveled – Bio Bio expeditions. They're partnering with the Chilean government to purchase enormous parcels of land - millions of acres at a time - that are in turn being set aside for conservation, recreation, and preservation. More locally to our expedition, the people of Chile's Futaleufu Valley with whom we seamlessly integrated due to their welcoming and familial spirit demonstrate a palpable sense of respect for their land, feeling honored to call the place home.
I watched Chilean kids who literally use oxen teams to harvest fire wood for the upcoming winter that's being stacked next to the simple homes they've built using hand tools who are learning to kayak class V whitewater. How magical it was to watch as "Pauli", a 4th generation Futaleufu valley native - paddled the rapids of the mighty Fu for the first time ever, so that he could watch his young son kayak. I felt a sense of pride as his boy - who had changed out of his hand-knit wool vest and into a Gore-Tex dry-top at the put-in - rolled up at the bottom of an intense class V rapid with a smile on his face as his father cheered and clapped from the boat. A few nights later, we gathered after a traditional asado dinner and listened to elder Carlo belt out a song about the Futaleuful while strumming his guitar - full of beautiful lyrics that pay homage to this place. It was inspiring to watch as one generation guides the next to become products of the place – which in turn becomes a product of its' people. The stewards care for the land, and the land provides for the people. It's an absolutely beautiful cycle.
Contrast that to home – where people appointed to lead our nation's Environmental Protection Agency and Department of Energy have publicly expressed skepticism regarding climate change; where sacred places are desecrated in the name of corporate profit and greed; where federal lands once protected for many of the same reasons that the family of Doug Tompkins (The North Face), Yvon Chouinard (Patagonia), and others are devoting their own assets to preserving in Patagonia are on the chopping block here for oil and gas exploration, and where maintaining clean air and clean water aren't a part of "making America great again." Those concerns center around land use - and don't even get into the familial, communal, welcoming spirit we felt from the locals. Most alarming of all isn't the fact that these things are happening - it's that we, the people, are sitting idly and waiting for the next shocking headline. At GOALS, we don't have the financial resources to purchase and protect millions of acres of land. We don't know how to change minds in Washington or effectively lobby at the state or federal level, but we do know how to profoundly impact many groups of youngsters who currently have their heads too far buried in the latest version of whatever they've just downloaded from the App Store to recognize what's being done to the land that they'll ultimately become a product of. These are the grassroots seeds that must be planted, and we need your help - today - to serve as many of them as possible.
We MUST make a change – one kids at a time – one GOALS expedition at a time. With just 5 days left before the 7th annual "Get Up & Get Down to Get Kids Out" Vertical Challenge ski-a-thon fundraiser, this is a call to action asking every GOALS supporter to over-exist and to make a difference. Whether you can join us on the hill at Winter Park on Saturday or not, please create your own peer-to-peer fundraising page for the 2017 GOALS Vertical Challenge here, then send a similar call-to-action email out to anyone you know who won't sit by idly and watch from the sidelines as empathy and ignorance allow for devastating consequences to be enacted on the places and activities that bring us joy, strength, wonder, and growth. If that's more that you can do, then give generously to someone whose page is already created.
With only 5 days left before the Vertical Challenge, you might think that it's not worth creating a page of your own. Time is short, and you might only raise a few hundred dollars. Please consider two things:
1. What if those dollars you've raised become the scholarship for a student who'd never otherwise have the opportunity to explore a wilderness canyon - whose life trajectory becomes forever changed as a result.
2. What if you do nothing?
Only good can come of the most successful Vertical Challenge ever…which can only come from the efforts of many working together toward a common goal, for both the short-term and for our future. Our pledge is to ensure that every dollar raised will be used to create powerful change by empowering kids on rivers while connecting them to themselves, their peers, and to wild places. The work we do is more necessary today than it has ever been.
In the words of Margaret Mead, "Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." Make a difference now.

In a young boy's life, nothing is as powerful an influence as the affirmation he receives from his father. A boy needs to look into his father's eyes and hear with sincerity in his voice, "I'm very proud of you." Or "Great job!" Such words instill confidence and the assurance that dad is on his side.
As a father I want my son to do his best and succeed in whatever he tries. However, I know that my expectations can seem like they're too high. I know first hand the feeling of growing up and feeling that "I'm not good enough; I never will be good enough." Having expectations for our sons is important. And if setting our expectations too high can damage a boy's confidence, then so can setting too low expectations too low or no expectations at all.
I love my son, I'm amazed to see the light in his eyes. I'm amazed to see him achieving academic excellence at all levels. I'm amazed to see that he's so musically gifted. I'm amazed to see that he's such a tender, caring person. These are things that I wish were a part of me. But more than anything, I am proud of my son, not because of what he can do, but simply because he's my son.
When he's not around, I miss him. Whenever I do something fun, go somewhere new, taste something different I always wish that I could share them with him. I try to take advantage of every opportunity to talk to him about matters of character and conduct. The best part of my day is when I get to see my kids–when I pick them up from school.
When it comes to maintaining my expectations for him, I know that he's not going to be able to meet all of them. I hope he knows that I'll still be proud of him for trying and for doing his best. When I don't meet up to his expectations as a father, I hope he'll be just as gracious to me.
I hope you'll begin to look into the eyes of your son, tell him how proud you are, and how much you love him. When he doesn't do well, tell him, "That's OK. You did your best. We'll try again next time." Pour out showers of love and praise on your son.

Make The Grade with #GirlTechLCR
These girls can! As part of our STEM for Girls programme some of our Year 8 girls attended #GirlTechLCR yesterday; an event for young women across the Leeds City Region that brings businesses together to raise aspirations and challenge gender stereotypes in the digital sector.
The event took place at the AQL headquarters, in association with AheadPartnership as part of their Make The Grade programme. Make The Grade focuses on bringing ideas and inspiration through real-life, hands-on experiences.
#GirlTechLCR focused on raising the aspirations of young women and bringing them knowledge of the skills and experiences that are available to them in their local community.
The number of females in the digital and creative sectors has been in decline despite the fact that skills are in high demand, and with the demand only set to rise this is a real cause for concern.
If the UK is to stay a leader in these fields, young people need to be informerd of all their careers options, allowing them to develop the right skills and build a better, more balanced workforce.
The day was made up of workshops with local and global companies, talks from experts and first hand accounts from some ladies working in tech right now.
Partners for the day included AQL, Premier Farnell, Advancery Ltd, O2, Siemans, ThinkBig, LhasaLtd, She Does Digital, PWC, Skipton Building Society, Jet2, EpiphanySearch, WYG group and Zeal.
The topics for the day were Cyber Security, Development, Design, Ecommerce, Fintech, Medical and New Technologies. This helped give the attendees a rounded view of what the digital and creative sectors have to offer.

the power of the mind
from Nykki Hardin, who does cleanses and healing
1) Proper care of the Physical Body, and
2) Mastering of the Mind
This is the truth:
Your mind is the most powerful tool you have. It can be your best friend or your worst enemy depending on how you choose to use it. Become the master of your thoughts, and you can become the master of your domain.
I have seen it time and time again, and I have witnessed it in myself. Meditation has not only fundamentally changed my life, it SAVED my life!
The DAILY practice of Mantra Meditation is the THRULINE of my existence. It is singlehandedly the most powerful tool in my tool bag. Because it has had such a dramatic impact in my life and I believe so strongly in it -- and also because I have received REPEATED requests from clients and individuals -- I will be leading a weekend workshop that teaches the fundamentals of this powerful, transformation practice based on the practice and philosophy of Transcendental Meditation.
In this workshop, you will learn how to implement this daily, home practice that is simple, easy, and only asks of short time intervals making it much more practical to implement. You will no longer need to rely on a class or a CD, but will be EMPOWERED to take the health of your thoughts and your body into your own hands. It provides relief from stress and anxiety, helps alleviate insomnia and depression, and it will help you become so intimate with your own mind that you learn how to USE it rather than ABUSE it!!

I believe in investing in individuals, for the beauty of the human race is that every person has a life as diverse and experiences to share.
I am a consistent over-thinker, with a patient husband (Ricky) and a very wonderful family. My siblings are my closest comrades and my largest advocates. They have helped influenced, supplemented my growth and continuously do so.
I participate heavily in handlettering as well as painting. I reside in Nashville, TN and always love hosting out of town visitors and exploring the hidden pockets in the city.
I sip on chamomile tea with a dollop of honey, read Ralph Waldo Emerson's essays and write letters in my loft illuminated by natural light.

Promising Beginning
I garden in extreme S. TX, where heat, bugs, and diseases make gardening, shall we say, challenging. I keep trying, despite it all. A few days ago, I noticed that the same critters, judging by chew patterns, that ate my poor melons into oblivion last year were apparently trying again this year. Did some research, and found a gardener who posted that she puffed the cheap store brand of Gold Bond Medicated Powder on her plants. It stopped whatever critter it was, as they apparently didn't like either the menthol or the powder. I thought it was worth a try. I'm happy to report that in a few days of trying, there are no new holes in my leaves. I discovered today that cabbage loopers apparently do not like it either. They were attacking my lettuce, so I dusted, just to see what happened. A bunch fell like a stone to the ground, where I squished them and left them for the ants to clean up. Mind you, I have no idea of possible long-term effects, or continued effectiveness, but it seems like a good start. Just throwing it out here in case anyone else wants to try.

The unexpected legal consequences of cyber-attacks
They can be exposed to lawsuits from customers whose personal details are compromised, from credit card companies and from companies with which they have specific confidential contracts. Individual executives and directors can also be exposed to personal suits for breach of fiduciary duty and a duty of care that they are binded by. Thus, for example, during 2015, US retail giant Target was required to pay an aggregate $250 million to settle a suit filed against it by a credit card company after Target's computers were breached with the details of 70 million credit card numbers leaked, compelling the credit card company to issue millions of new cards.
Feds fine Dallas hospital $3.2M for HIPAA security violations
The medical center also appears to have not fully cooperated with OCR during an investigation, agency documents show. OCR traditionally enters into a settlement agreement with a HIPAA covered entity following negotiations over the size of a monetary fine and conditions of a corrective action plan. […] OCR Director Jocelyn Samuels has significantly ramped up HIPAA enforcement actions during the past year and has indicated that such actions will continue this year.
U.S. Visitors May Have to Hand Over Social Media Passwords: DHS
Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly told Congress on Tuesday the measure was one of several being considered to vet refugees and visa applicants from seven Muslim-majority countries. "We want to get on their social media, with passwords: What do you do, what do you say?" he told the House Homeland Security Committee. "If they don't want to cooperate then you don't come in."
Security firm agrees many others use fear to propel sales
Many venture capital companies have started to collect money aggressively to reinvest into startups, promising their investors to create a new Facebook or Google in cyber security, he said. "Once they enter into a startup, they usually start pressuring the founders to boost sales by all possible means, without really caring if their solutions actually help the customers," said Kolochenko. "At the end of the day, companies purchase cyber security products that they don't really need or are not appropriate for their risks, business processes or infrastructure."
Maryland bill boosts criminal penalties against ransomware perpetrators
Susan Lee's (D-Montgomery) bill redefines a ransomware attack as a stand-alone felony in a case where the intent is to extort money, property, or anything of value from another. If passed those convicted would face a possible 10-year prison sentence and a fine up to $10,000. The proposed law would lower the standard of what is considered a felony to include extortion attempts of less than $1,000, according to NBCWashington.
End the Privacy Shield: Access Now urges the European Commission to suspend Privacy Shield due to changes in US policies
The Commission must react to the recent changes in US law and policies that put in doubt the validity of 'written assurances' which are the basis of the data transfer arrangement", said Fanny Hidvegi, European Policy Manager at Access Now. "The EU should take a stand against government surveillance whether it's coming from the US or EU member states, and ensure the application of the Charter for Fundamental Rights in this context to complement the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights".

Whether your organization should opt for tokenization or encryption will depend on your own unique requirements. If you want to stay compliant while reducing your obligations under PCI DSS, you can opt to use tokenization. If you want scalability, and have to encrypt large volumes of data, then encryption is ideal since you only need a small encryption key. But regardless of which one you choose for protecting private information, both tokenization and encryption can help satisfy regulatory requirements imposed by PCI DSS, HIPAA-HITECH, GLBA, ITAR and the upcoming EU Data Protection Regulation.
Valve Patches Trivial XSS Bug in Steam
Mac malware from Iran targeting US defense industry, human rights activist
The malware is easily available for download via an Adobe Flash Installer and interested downloaders can choose from getting either Windows-based or Mac-based version. The malware is designed to spy on the targeted computer and obtain important credentials. To perform its task, the malware generates fake system login boxes, which it collects from Keychain, the password management system of Apple Inc. Researchers claim that the malware is not of superior quality and seems like the work of an "amateur developer."
Cellphone Spy Tools Have Flooded Local Police Departments
Hundreds of documents obtained by CityLab from the country's top fifty largest police departments over the last ten months reveal that similar cellphone surveillance devices have been quietly acquired by local authorities nationwide. The majority of these departments have at least one of two main types of digital-age spy tools: cellphone interception devices, used to covertly track or grab data from nearby mobile devices, and cellphone extraction devices, used to crack open locked phones that are in police possession and scoop out all sorts of private communications and content.
House Republicans Just Voted to Eliminate the Only Federal Agency That Makes Sure Voting Machines Can't Be Hacked
In a little-noticed 6-3 vote today, the House Administration Committee voted along party lines to eliminate the Election Assistance Commission, which helps states run elections and is the only federal agency charged with making sure voting machines can't be hacked. The EAC was created after the disastrous 2000 election in Florida as part of the Help America Vote Act to rectify problems like butterfly ballots and hanging chads. (Republicans have tried to kill the agency for years.)
Important lessons on cybersecurity
As you begin your term, I encourage you to take the lessons learned from your predecessor to heart when crafting cybersecurity policy. This means adopting the recommendations of the national action plan and going beyond them. It means ensuring there is an advocate for cybersecurity in the room when budget and policy decisions are made. It means working with Congress to implement existing law on information sharing and to pass new legislation on developing the workforce needed to address these issues and securing the internet of things.
Snowden Spawns Wave of Cybersecurity Startups (T, CSCO)
Since the former NSA contractor's revelations that the federal government was sponsoring a nationwide surveillance program, more companies have been turning away from market leaders like Cisco while making a beeline for network infrastructure startups that offer cheaper and easier solutions. As a result, nascent companies in this space have been raking in serious coin. According to Bloomberg News, citing data from CB Insights, the researcher that tracks tech startups and venture capital funding, this startup space has surged 47%, to $6.35 billion.
Fort Gordon activates 2 cyber units
The two units began the first day of their history Tuesday as part of the Cyber Protection Battalion. The battalion commander, Lt. Col. John Popiak, oversaw the ceremony and installed the battalion's new companies, including the unfurling of the unit flags, or guidons. "This ceremony is rare," Popiak said. "Typically, you'll see movement of units from place to place but here we are substantiating new units where we had none before."
New charges for ex-NSA contractor for allegedly taking elite hacking tools
According to prosecutors, Harold "Hal" Martin took a slew of highly classified documents out of secure facilities and kept them at his home and in his car. Earlier this week, the Washington Post reported that among those materials, Martin is alleged to have taken 75 percent of the hacking tools that were part of the Tailored Access Operations, an elite hacking unit within NSA. The indictment outlines 20 specific documents that he is accused of having taken, including "a March 2014 NSA leadership briefing outlining the development and future plans for a specific NSA organization."
Revealed: Malware that skulks in memory, invisibly collecting sysadmins' passwords
Kaspersky Lab experts were set on the trail on the malware campaign by "banks in CIS which had found the penetration-testing software, Meterpreter, now often used for malicious purposes, in the memory of their servers when it was not supposed to be there". The Meterpreter code was combined with a number of legitimate PowerShell scripts and other utilities. The combined tools had been adapted into malicious code that could hide in the memory, invisibly collecting the passwords of system administrators.
76 Famous iOS Apps Vulnerable to Silent Data Interception
Verify.ly founder Will Strafach released a detailed report in which he outlined the findings clearly, and stated that 33 apps out of the vulnerable 76 are categorized as low-risk while 24 are in the medium-risk group and 19 are counted as high-risk apps. Strafach further stated that their system has shortlisted "hundreds of applications" that are likely to have higher vulnerability to data interception. He tested the company's claim using a "live iPhone running iOS 10" along with a "malicious proxy" to embed an invalid TLS certificate inside the connection.
Report: More than 100K WordPress web pages defaced following disclosure of patched bug
WordPress developers waited nearly a week to acknowledge the severe vulnerability so that they could first privately inform various content delivery platforms and website hosts of the issue and give them time to install the CMS' latest update, version 4.7.2. Apparently, however, many other website owners didn't bother to download the patch, even after the disclosure – opening the door for adversaries to swoop in and attack. Indeed, researchers at Sucuri reported on Monday that hackers began probing for and exploiting the flaw within 48 hours of it going public.
Opinion: How to have a FUD-free RSA Conference
First, steer clear of booths draped in yellow, orange, red, and black. It's the first indication to proceed with caution. There's a reason why warning and danger signs use these colors – they are meant to scare you. Turn around if you see stereotypical hacker images: guys in ski masks, people wearing gloves while typing, or anyone in dark hoodies. Anything that looks ominous is a pure sign of FUD.

An expletive-laced conversation between the manager of a Valley Del Taco and a pair of drive-thru customers who did what many do in this age of social media — hit the record button — has not only gone viral online, it got the manager fired.
Vimeo user Kobe D posted the video, titled "Confrontation between Del Taco drive thru and customers who didn't get their sauce," on April 27. In those two days the nearly 3-minute clip racked up more than 90,000 views and became a "staff pick."
Kobe D does not have a user profile on Vimeo and only joined the service the day before posting the clip. He or she has not posted any other videos and did not write anything about the "Confrontation" clip so there is no context for what happened.
It's not clear how it all started or what prompted the customers — a man and a woman — to record the interaction, but within the first few seconds, you can clearly see the man working the drive-thru window flip them off.
"I don't give a [expletive], bro," the man said with a smile when he came to the window.
He claimed to be the manager of the restaurant. When the customers said they would send the video to his boss and that he might be fired for his behavior, he clearly did not think it would ever happen.
"I am the boss," he replied. "My dad's actually the [expletive] owner so good luck with that."
"Dude, I've done this a billion times," he continued in response to the woman saying the restaurant could be closed down. "You guys give me [shit] all the [expletive] time. … I'm not talking about you specifically. I'm talking about you as a customer."
Clearly confident in his position — apparently a mistake given that he was fired — the man asked how long the conversation was going to go on.
"So how long you guys wanna do this? Like five minutes? An hour? I can do this all [expletive] day. But like in reality, it's the same [expletive] outcome. Why? Because you got your sauces and you guys are still being [expletive], and I'm [expletive] ticked off 'cause I still got orders."
The male customer countered.
"If you hate your job so bad, why don't you quit?"
"This is my [expletive] fortune right here," the manager answered, gesturing to the restaurant.
The conversation, such as it was, continued for about another minute or so until the customers drove away right after the woman called the manager "young and dumb."
The last thing you hear on the clip is the man in the vehicle saying, "Wow."
Dozens of Facebook users shared the video on the official Del Taco page. Base on those posts, it looks like the video was originally titled "Don't eat at Del Taco 91Ave & Peoria." That title is the only indication of where the confrontation happened.
It's not clear when or why the title was changed.
Del Taco responded to some of the Facebook posts.
"We strive to provide a positive guest experience at all of our restaurants and were appalled by this behavior as it is not representative of our high guest service standards. We took this incident very seriously and addressed it with the location's franchisee, who took definitive action by terminating the employee immediately."
It's the exact same verbiage the company released through Powerhouse Public Relations.
While Del Taco responded to some of the posts on Facebook, there was no mention of the video or the employee's firing on Del Taco's timeline when this story was last updated.
We have called the Del Taco at 91st and Peoria avenues several times, but nobody has answered the phone.
Del Taco is based in California, and has been around since 1964.

Pier dives: nudibranchs and spider crabsSunday, September 29th, 2013
We had picked Blairgowrie and Rye piers as the dive sites. Blairgowrie is a safe choice in most conditions as the sea wall at the outer edge of the pier blocks most of the waves. Despite the fairly strong winds we had an excellent long dive there in great conditions and good visibility.
The second dive at Rye wasn't as impressive and the conditions were bit choppy, especially in shallower water. Our visit to the artificial Elsa's Reef near the pier was disappointing too, the structure has more or less fallen apart by now. A big shame, it was a nice addition to a rather short pier dive.
The main highlight of this dive were the numerous spider crabs. There were quite a few of them around and I managed some nice closeups of them. Obviously this wasn't a full crab migration or anything close, just a dozen or so spider crabs hanging around the pier. A great distraction on an otherwise average dive.

Portsea Backbeach and J5 SubmarineSaturday, September 14th, 2013
We finally got our perfect day in mid-September. It was sunny and calm, a great day to take the boat out with Evan and Luke. We started out at Portsea Backbeach Wall, a reef dive I had only done once before as one my first dives in Melbourne. There are more impressive reefs around the coast, but it was still pleasant dive with decent variety of fish, including several blue devils. My only real complaint was the somewhat lackluster visibility.
I was diving with Luke, Jess and Walson. Luke has had his new camera kit for quite a while now, but this was actually the first time I saw the thing in action. Quite impressive, even if those strobe arms are definitely very long!
Then for the next dive Luke and the OW-rated divers jumped in at the Lonsdale Arches. And finally to wrap up the day I did the J5 submarine with Evan and Oscar. I had only dived this particular sub once before so this dive was definitely the highlight of the day for me. The wreck lies down at 36 m and it is relatively intact. At this depth penetration is not feasible with a single tank so we simply stayed on top of the wreck. Of particular interest is the conning tower completely covered in yellow zoanthids, hence the nickname "yellow submarine".
At this depth no-decompression limits are short, especially since we had already done one dive earlier. For some reason Oscar's computer gave him a really short bottom time, so we had even less time on the wreck itself than usual. I had just enough time to get a few nice shots and then it was already time to start ascending.
Unfortunately the ascent didn't go quite as planned. On the way to the final safety stop Oscar had some buoyancy issues and ended up going straight to the surface.
He was obviously little bit shocked when the boat picked him up, but luckily there was no lasting harm from the ascent. Apart from this incident the day was very enjoyable, hopefully the rest of the Spring diving is this good!

Slimmer in size, faster in performance, and offering the best image quality with smarter connectivity for intuitive usage - the Leica M10 sets the new standards for rangefinder photography and state-of-the-art imaging. The Leica M10 builds on more than 60 years of rangefinder expertise, 11 years of digital M-Camera development and the invaluable feedback from dedicated M-Photographers to not only bring one of the slimmest digital M of all time, but some of the most refined and state-of-the-art digital rangefinder Leica has ever created.
ISO Setting Dial For Better ControlOne of the most striking changes with the Leica M10 is the ISO setting dial on the top plate. For the first time in a digital M, the M10 allows all essential shooting parameters such as distance, aperture, exposure time and ISO values to be preselected without using the menu or switching on the camera. This allows for better control and more discreet photography.
Superior Imaging PerformanceThe key component of the Leica M10 is the new 24 MP full-frame CMOS sensor developed specifically for this camera. It features new technologies that lead to significant improvements in all parameters relevant to imaging performance - impressive dynamic range, excellent colour rendition, exceptional sharpness and the finest resolution of details.
ISO RangeExtended, now from 100-50,000The new sensor of the M10 extends the ISO sensitivity range from a base of 100 to a maximum of 50,000 with much improved performance and less noise at higher ISO values. The Leica M10 opens up new avenues of photography and delivers exceptional imaging performance in difficult lighting conditions.
The Maestro-II ProcessorThe latest generation Leica Maestro-II image processor of the Leica M10 reflects the state-of-the-art of advanced processor technology. In combination with the new 24 MP sensor, this ensures that all exposures fulfill the promise made by Leica cameras - pictures that captivate with exceptional quality and brilliance. The Leica M10 delivers images with low digital noise levels and true-to-life detail, even at ISO values as high as 50,000.
New Optical Rangefinder/ViewfinderThe new optical rangefinder/viewfinder in the M10 greatly improves the focusing and composing of subjects. The field of view has been enlarged by 30%. The magnification factor has been increased to 0.73 x. Also, with a 50% increase of the eye-relief distance, the viewfinder is much more convenient to use, especially for those who wear glasses.
Leaner Operating ConceptWith a slimmer profile and only three buttons on the back of the camera - Live-View, Playback and Menu, the Leica M10 is incredibly easy to handle and use. Fast Continuous Shooting With a 2.0 GB buffer memory and continuous shooting of up to 5 frames per second at full resolution, the Leica M10 ensures that a photographer will never miss decisive moments.
Weather Resistant for All ConditionsThe Leica M10 is perfectly equipped to withstand light water sprays and dust. The camera's top and bottom plates are machined from solid blocks of brass, with a full-metal magnesium-alloy chassis and scratch-resistant Corning Gorilla Glass covering the LCD. The build of the camera and its special rubber seals make it able to resist the adversities of everyday life, even in bad weather.
The 'Favorites' MenuThe importance of particular settings varies according to personal preferences and photographicneeds. To cater for these, the Leica M10 offers a programmable 'Favourites' menu. In this menu, thephotographer defines personal preferences for the relevant parameters and can later access them atthe press of a button. The settings can be easily changed and adapted to meet the needs of specificphotographic situations at any time.
Wireless ConnectivityThe Leica M10 is the first M-Camera with an integrated Wi-Fi module. This allows pictures to be sent conveniently to iOS devices, via a wireless connection, and immediately shared online while on the go or in the field. It also enables remote control of the Leica M10 via Wi-Fi with a smartphone or tablet equipped with the Leica M-App. Important shooting parameters, such as shutter speed, or functions such as firing the shutter can also be controlled from the smart device. An equivalent app for Android devices will be made available at a later time.
Live-View Focusing with Focus PeakingLive-View offers both focus peaking, the automatic marking of sharply focused edges as coloured lines, as well as magnification to attain pin-point accurate focusing on the LCD monitor. In the Leica M10, the visibility of these contrasting peaking lines has been vastly improved from the previous generation, and now enables even more convenient focusing by allowing the magnified view to be moved anywhere on the Live-View image.
Sustainability & LongevityLeica has been making history for decades - with cameras that have always been ahead of their time. Throughout all these years, Leica has always kept a tight focus on sustainability. In the 1950s, Leica created a timeless and enduring standard - the Leica M-bayonet. Nearly all Leica M-Lenses produced ever since can be mounted and used on the Leica M10. Leica cameras and lenses are timeless and faithful companions with enduring reliability and an exceptionally long life.
Compatibility With Leica Visoflex EVF and R-LensesThe combination of the Leica R-Adapter and the Leica Visoflex 2.4 MP electronic viewfinder makes it possible to use nearly all Leica R-Lenses ever made on the M10. Manually focusing R-Lenses is now easier than on prior M cameras with the combination of the Visoflex and the M10's improved Live-View functions. Additionally, the Visoflex's built-in GPS functionality embeds geotag data into every image the M10 captures while it is mounted.

Best UK Live Unsigned Band

Rock, rock, rock (and Ska) at The Hob Staines
The Stilts at The Hob Staines, Sunday August 31st 8:00P (with Loaded Dice)
The Stilts play balls-out rock and roll with lashings of punk and ska thrown in. Citing influences ranging from The Clash and The Who through to Cage the Elephant and The Paddingtons, the band's sound is the result of a sonic collision between the garage band revolution of the sixties and the current wave of alternative indie. Not confined to any one style, The Stilts create music that rocks and deliver it with the punk energy it deserves.
Formed in North-West London in 2006 The Stilts have made practising an obsession and obsession an art form, creating an impressive range of their own material. Over the last year and a half they have worked their way through quiet Monday night gigs to packed weekenders in top venues, delighting promoters and picking up fans on the way.
The Stilts now have a reputation for jumping sets packed with raw energy, which has enabled them to build a dedicated following on the London gig circuits. Having been tipped for prime slots on a host of mainstream radio shows, they expect to be heard on the air in the near future.
The band continues to raise expectations, incorporating innovative sounds from their current influences and regularly introducing new tracks to their sets, keeping fans hooked and converting non-believers.

Read on for our previews and free picks for Sunday:
St. Louis Blues @ Washington Capitals
The Blues have only played six road games this season, which is the fewest in the NHL, but a 4-1-1 away record is encouraging as they head to Washington. The Blues have been impressive of late, winning seven of nine. Their two losses came in Tampa Bay and at home to Phoenix – two teams that are in the top in NHL points.
The Caps have played well recently themselves, winning six of eight, but I still view them as a weaker team than St. Louis. The Caps tend to beat up on weaker squads and struggle against the league's elite. The other big difference between these teams is goaltending as the Caps still don't have a tangible solution. They allow 2.85 goals per game, which is 20th in the NHL. The Blues are eighth in that category overall and allow just 2.00 goals per game on the road (third in the NHL). Combined with the fact that you don't have to pay much with the Blues – just -104 – leads me to add them to my NHL picks.
Free Pick: Blues -104 at Pinnacle
Winnipeg Jets @ Minnesota Wild
The Winnipeg Jets have won four straight and five of six, but I'm still skeptical of them. This is a very streaky team that's done barely enough to win games – including Friday night, when they needed a late third period goal just to tie Philadelphia before winning in a shootout. And speaking of shootouts, they've won three straight in shootouts, so while that's good for their record, I view shootouts as toss-ups. They can go either way.
I'm not going to bet against Winnipeg on Sunday but I will be take the under. I don't trust their offense and the Wild's goaltending – with Josh Harding – has been phenomenal. None of their last four games have seen more than five goals. Harding is a perfect 9-0-0 at home with a 1.17 GAA and a .947 save percentage. I look for him to lead us to an under.
Free Pick: Under 5 at Bovada
Dallas Stars @ Vancouver Canucks
The Stars are rolling right now as they've won five of their last six games. More impressive is that their offense has morphed into one of the best units in the league. They've scored 23 goals in their last six and combined with the stellar goaltending of Kari Lehtonen, have been tough to stop.
They've visit Vancouver on Sunday, who has been at the opposite end of the spectrum. The Canucks have lost four of five while scoring just three goals in their last three.
Given the trends, I'll add the Stars to my sports picks. They come in with more momentum and are getting +137 on the NHL odds. That's great value.
Free Pick: Stars +137 at William Hill

From Our Editors
There are two ways cars, SUVs, and trucks wash up at Squeaky Clean of Valley Stream. They either inch their way into the automated tunnel for a quick and painless scrub down, or they park in the garage for a thorough wash and hand wax. Detailing crews babysit rides for up to four hours, during which time they restore exterior shine and free interiors from dirt, debris, and mittens that don't belong in the glove compartment. Aside from sprucing up autos, the staff keeps engines purring with express oil changes.
