SATELLITE BEACH, Fla. (AP) - The Coast Guard has suspended its search of the waters off Florida's Space Coast for a 49-year-old dentist who hasn't been seen since leaving on a fishing trip.
Michael Alexander's empty kayak was found Thursday about 20 miles northeast of Satellite Beach. It was brought to shore by crime scene investigators for processing. Investigators also found his blue pickup truck at a Satellite Beach park.
State and federal rescuers had been searching for Alexander by sea and land, but the Coast Guard called off its search Saturday evening.
Authorities say the Cape Canaveral man left a note for his girlfriend on Wednesday morning saying he was going fishing.

About Jacqueline Heffernan
I am English with a Belgian father. My husband is American and has lived in the UK for 15 years. He studied cooking at the Cordon Bleu school in Paris so when we have dinner parties I am at a slight advantage. He is now an investment banker but loves France and the cuisine, so we decided to buy a place near the Cote D'Azur where we could continue to enjoy everything French. Five years after buying the villa, our children, twin daughters arrived. They are now 10. We are very conscientious about renting the villa and do everything possible to make staying at the villa a happy experience. When I stay at the villa I look around and check if there is anything that I would not like if I were renting it for a holiday. If I see anything, I put it right straight away. It is so important to receive feedback and whenever we can assist either before or during your stay we are more than happy to do so. We have a French lady who speaks English, who takes care of guests when they arrive and during their stay. However, we are here at all times to assist. We take personal pride in the villa and hope you enjoy it as much as we do. The villa is spacious, clean, comfortable, well maintained and set in a stunning location with wonderful views. We could put in Persian rugs and designer sun loungers but then it would be classed as luxury and the price would go up. We prefer to keep it basic and user friendly and what you see is really what you get without any embellishments. We are discerning and we love the villa.
Jacqueline Heffernan purchased this villa in 2000
Why Jacqueline Heffernan chose Les-Adrets-de-l'Esterel
Location, location, location. When we decided to buy a holiday home in France we were first attracted to Nice. At the suggestion of friends who have a house near Les Adrets, we decided to take a look. We venture out of town and into the foothills above Cannes. As we drove, the noise and stress of the city left us. The air was fresh and cooling. Away from the crowds, with breath taking views, Les Adrets was a jewel in the crown. Set in the protected Massif Del Esterel, a national park of forests, rock formations and lakes, the village is unique. The sounds of nature are everywhere. As you drive towards the village and look towards the Bay of Cannes, the views are magical both day and night. The property has every practicality to suit the way of life in the South of France. Shutters on the doors and windows and stone floors keep the villa cool during the hot months. For sun worshippers, the sun terraces provide a place to relax. The private and secluded pool surrounded by beautiful flora and fauna, is a delight to cool off. In the evening you can put the lights on around the pool and enjoy a crisp glass of wine and a night swim. Sunrise and sunsets from the upper balcony are stunning, with the lights of Cannes glittering in the distance. Quiet and away from the village but only a five minute walk to the centre, it is a perfect spot to stay. Very convenient to all major attractions and away from the hustle and bustle when you need it.
What makes this villa unique
The village has every convenience as well as retaining its French charm. The villa is beautiful, secluded and relaxing. The views are stunning.
If you want to be in a very comfortable villa with all the facilities one could need, and yet walk five minutes into the where you will find a bar, restaurants, supermarket, hairdresser, bakery, then this is the place for you. Another unique benefit is the friendliness of the local people that I have not experienced in such depth as in Les Adrets. Everyone says hello and young people step off of the pavement to allow older people to pass. The bakery have a fantastic selection of freshly baked bread and cakes each day that would not look out of place in Harvey Nichols. Again, the supermarket has a good selection of fine wines and the delicatessen prepares regional dishes daily that are delicious. Really, unless you want to explore and go to the beach etc, you have everything you need in the villa and the village to keep you happy for your holiday.
Guestbook comments from the owner
"We had a wonderful holiday at Villa Le Nest and would highly recommend it. The owner was extremely prompt and helpful in answering our enquiries when booking, and the lady in the village who helps look after the house very kind and friendly whilst we were there. The house is spacious and has all you might need, it felt homely rather than a holiday rental. The owners are keen for you to feel comfortable during your stay and make sure you have all you require.
There are many things we loved about the holiday, we will list a few! Great to be able to walk into the lovely friendly village for a coffee, meals and good little shops. Lots of interesting and varied things to do in the area - we enjoyed beautiful local walks, canoeing up the Gorge du Verdon, the local lake and the pedelos with slides! mooching round Cannes and a boat trip to the islands, as well as visiting the beaches. But we were also very happy to stay at the villa enjoying the fabulous views from the balconies and dipping into the pool with it's many accessories! All this suited the different ages within our party from teenagers to those in their 70's. It all worked really well for us all and we were very sad to leave"

It´s not going to do any good to call Nixon, as he is just another melee mouth liberal Democrat lawyer politician who has been trying to cover his own political butt, as he knows that without a big black vote at election time that he will not be going anywhere politically. When this saga is over in a couple of months, the voters of Missouri should think about recalling him, because when the crap hits the fan this guy has shown by his actions that he is out of his element.

This couch is a very nice looking couch. It is a little smaller than what I was expecting and it is really firm. I am hoping the cushions soften a bit in time. Overall I am happy with this purchase. My living room is small so it is not that big of a deal that it is smaller than expected. I do think this couch is better for office spaces/smaller spaces. It's not a "lounge all day watching TV" kind of couch. I easily put the couch together all by myself. There were two places where the predrilled holes did not match up. It hasn't been a problem though.

Hey there..., I just picked up a new Ruger, LCR Crimson Trace (38 Special +P) and I would like to know if anyone is aware of a small of the back (horizontal / slight cant) leather holster for this firearm?
I used to have a S&W Airweight and carried in this fashion. I am new to the forum & used the search function..., however, couldn't find anything that matched my search criteria.
If anyone is aware of a manufacturer for what I am looking for, the info would be greatly appreciated....

I just bought the 38 lcr but with the standard grip and they don't seem to have many sob holsters for either model. Check out simply rugged holsters online. They have some real quality looking holsters that can convert from inside the waist to outside as we'll as adjust the cant to help with sob carry. Affordable too
Thanks gunlinn..., appreciate the info.
In the near future I'm going to order the silver dollar pancake for 45$ . Adding the iw straps for additional 15$

Fuse Box Locations On A '04-'08 Chevy Malibu
Did this video help you?
BittersweetRemix: Thank you very much! I was trying to figure out where the fuses were so I
could replace the ones for my power outlets. Other sites listed where they
were located, but since I'm pretty much car/mechanically illiterate, it's
way more helpful to be shown these things. So again, thank you! =]
malika toepfer: Thank you!! my horn has been broken for two weeks, i had to use my finger :-)

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Frontier is probably one of the best schools in APS. Teachers are great. Very engaged with students. Very good programs for all levels of education. Definitely like the atmosphere around the school too. It's in a great neighborhood if you can find a house for sale. They sell quick, because of the school quality.
TRAFFIC SUCKS! To many kids in classroom- Wish APS had more money for additional school.
This school is a disgrace. The bullying goes on endlessly with no punishment to the bully. My child has a broken arm (broken in several places) because of this incessant bullying. He is a special needs child who has already gone through enough without being tortured by his classmates. If you have a child with any sort of special needs or an IEP, steer clear of this school! I wish I could go back in time and move into Cherry Creek school district just a few months sooner. It is a mistake I have made that I will regret for the rest of my life.
My son is currently in his 3rd year at Aurora Frontier and only one teacher at the school has ever been truly inspirational to him. The others were focused on nit-picking his performance to where he has no desire to attend. On preliminary testing last year he scored above the 90th percentile for the gifted, creative and talented program, but the teachers and administration have failed to appropriately address this even after we made several inquiries. To this date we still have not received a definitive answer regarding his placement in the program. Communication from the teachers this year has been well below expectations regarding homework. And one teacher gave the impression of being irritated when I called with questions about my sons homework assignment. The administration's actions on bullying are ridiculuos. When my son chose to defend himself last year from a bully, the dean of students told us that our son should have remained a victim. If actions are any indication of this rating, we are in the process of finding a better school.
I think it's a good school. The people are friendly and professional. I do have a problem with some of the parents of 'bussed-in' kids, though. I have been there a few times when these parents would get confrontational with the staff. The staff did all they could to de-escalate the situation but some parents would just be threatening and harassing the staff. Other than that, I believe the people at Aurora are good people who truly care for the children in their care. I came from CA and have seen other schools in action and these people, especially a 'Ms. Irma', have the patience of saints and hearts as big as Colorado. If she is any example, I have to say the staff, teachers and administrators are doing a great job! Also, I'd like to mention 'Ms. Kim'. She also has a sweet personality and appears quite competent.
I am a 8th grader at Frontier. I to me think it would be cooler if we had more room in the school and did have to see the little kids but thats how the school is. I started going to Frontier when it first open. I was in 5th grade. I have grown so much in the past years so in the school work Frontier is great. Yes, the teacher get on you but thats beause they want you to be ready for high school. I dont like everything about Frontier but I like how my learning has grown.
I absolutely love this school. The teachers are exceptional. I have a Kindergartner and a second grader and couldn't be more pleased.
This is the 2nd year my daughter has attended the school and I have 1 complaint. I am not that pleased on who they handle bullying as I feel they give too many chances to the bullying party. I am left with the only option of taking matters into my own hands and encouraging my daughter to defend herself. The staff is EXCELLENT! They are all compassionate to the childrens needs which is important. Parents seeking ways to manipulate the system to get into the Cherry Crk system are simply attempting to 'join the band wagon' vs giving their rightful school the chance it deserves. I worked in a Cherry Crk school & the staffs level of compassion doesnt compare. Parent involvement is VERY important to the success of school & most important, the child.
I am so sick of hearing the same lame excuse from parents about how bad Aurora schools are and how great Cherry Creek is. The bottom line is Aurora Frontier is a great school. My kids have went there since it opened and I have no complaints what so ever. The staff is great and they really do care for all the students and do not pull any punches. The classes are challenging and I'm impressed with what my kids are learning. Kudos to the teachers and kids at Aurora Frontier. Keep up the great work.
Well I really don't know what to say about this school, sure some teachers are good but what about the other staff? This is just like any other shool in Aurora! So please do not be fooled just becasue it is a new school! I am a student At Aurora Frontier and it's my last years here and have been going to this school for now three years, and those three years of my life were like a nightmare... I feel as if this school feels like discipline is the answer to everything and so i dissagree. And no I not a bad student and many students in our school has read this and totally agree w/me. So the choice is your's of where you want your child to go, but I just thought I would give my opina and so I did.
This school's teacher/student ratio is way too high 1/34. Teachers are demanding but don't respond when e-mailed for support. Teachers are expected to share in administrative duties that require substitute teachers be in their place once a week. Safety and bully-proofing has improved, but kids are still sent out during rain and snow for recess - not acceptable to me.
A great new building doesn't change old Aurora Public School habits. Parents are thinking twice and discovering creative ways to get thier kids into nearby Cherry Creek Public Schools, and there is a reason for it. Mediocrity seems to be the word of the day at Aurora Frontier. Public schools, in general, are entirely too 'PC'. One suggestion: challenge the children, let them actually 'play' on the playground during recess, focus more on accomplishments of the children and not how other children less motivated might 'feel'.
I cant say enough good things about this school. Its only in its second year, it is in a great neighborhood. the school itself is excellent. The principal is very good and really spends a lot of time with parents and the kids. The whole staff I have dealt with from the secretary to the teachers have been wonderful. I would highly recommend this school. It is not a typical Aurora school by any means.
I love everything about this school. The neighborhood its in, the facility itself, the principal, teachers. office staff have all been outstanding. I couldnt have been happier with sending my young daughtger to this school.

The man who helped pull Bobby Harbour from his burning house Wednesday described the chain of events to WOWT Six News.
A fire that sparked in the living room destroyed Laurie Saenz and Bobby Harbour's home.
"It's a sad moment when you look and you see somebody's life land here in ashes," said Rich Hopkins, the business manager at St James Seton School, which is directly across the street from the house.
A student at the school first noticed smoke coming from the house from the classroom's window and alerted the teacher. The teacher then informed the school's administration and Rich Hopkins went to check out the fire.
"I got to the vantage point of the house and I could tell that there was actually smoke coming out so from this point on I ran all the way down," said Hopkins, as he walked the path he took to the home that day.
When he reached the house, Hopkins said Laurie Saenz was sitting on the side steps of the house, covered in smoke and hysterical. She told Hopkins there was someone still inside.
"I could not see into the house but I could tell I was hitting something with the door and kind of knelt down at which time I could see
him laying there," said Hopkins.
The school's custodian, Tom Brown, ran over to help Hopkins and together they pulled the unconscious Harbour from the house to safety.
"To me this was just a natural instinct to say, okay, I'm going to do what I can to help this person, and by God's grace, he was right here at the door and I was able to get to him and pull him out," said Hopkins.
Saenz is at St. Elizabeth Regional Medical Center in critical condition, and Harbour is at Nebraska Medical Center in an unknown condition.
Hopkins said the students now see the charred debris that remains, and they still ask what they can do to help the couple.
"At school we instill in our kids that we love all people and we're supposed to do the right thing when confronted with obstacles."

This is a list of typical things that you can do right now, to get started helping out at TechNet Wiki.
Please add the checks you normally do, so we can all work together for a better Wiki.
There are obviously thousands of tags in the Wiki. Here is a top list of the most common and important tags you can check for:
Must see article for new editors... Thanks for writing it!!!!!!!!!!!
We discussed the question of tags in the Council and decided to use singular. So, even if article has several comments, the tag will be 'has comment' and even for several images the tag will be 'has image'. I'll discuss 'has links' tag separately. But for the two common tags has image, has table, has comment - use singular. The See Also should be separated by horizontal line. However, don't make these edits only - make other edits as well. In other words, don't try to perfect every article in very little detail - try doing changes in mass (few edits at once).
Great article! This guidance is much needed and important.
It is exactly what I am looking for.
Thanks so much!
Naomi added this to the Guidelines Portal: social.technet.microsoft.com/.../compare.aspx
We may want to have a separate discussion or a WiKi article on Tags. For now, in our recent Council chat we decided to not use 'has links' tag at all and use singular for 'has image' and 'has comment'. That's all we know for now. If you come across an article you want to edit, you may keep this in mind. But don't go for these changes only, we plan to standardize the tags at some point.
Thanks, Naomi!
Naomi and I just added the "Combine Edits" section to make a best practice that we should be combining edits, when possible, versus making more individual edits. Thanks for reading!

AP Golf Writer
PINEHURST, N.C. (AP) -- Only when he realized where he was going did Brooks Koepka look back at where he had been.
A year ago this week, Koepka was in Scotland to prepare for a Challenge Tour event and his sixth straight week on the road. Now he's going to the Masters for the first time and earned a return trip to the U.S. Open. He locked up a PGA Tour card.
"It just keeps getting better and better," he said Tuesday.
Koepka was coming up the 18th fairway Sunday at Pinehurst No. 2 when he looked at the leaderboard and mentioned to his caddie, Ricky Elliott, that it would be cool to birdie the final hole and tie for fifth. He hit a 52-degree wedge to 6 feet and made birdie -- and a late bogey by Henrik Stenson put him in a tie for fourth.
Only when he was in the locker room did he find out the top four and ties from the U.S. Open are invited to Augusta National.
"It was pretty sweet, to say the least," he said. "Someone said to me, 'How's it feel to be in the Masters?'And I was like, 'Oh, that's funny.' It's awesome, a dream come true. I went there a long time ago and always told my dad that I was going to go back and play but I would never go back and watch. It's a special place."
Koepka also sewed up his PGA Tour card by earning 115 FedEx Cup points. That makes him the equivalent of No. 82 in the FedEx Cup and makes him a lock to get his PGA Tour card.
He reached a point of getting unlimited exemptions in April, but exemptions are hard to find this year. Koepka figured he would have at least three more starts to nail down his card, but to achieve it at the U.S. Open was special because his family was at Pinehurst and he could share the big moment.
Not many players have earned their European Tour and PGA Tour cards in less than a year.
Koepka's win in Scotland last year was his third on the Challenge Tour, giving him a European Tour card.
Next up is a return to Europe. His plan is to play the French Open and Scottish Open and try to get one of three spots available to the top finishers not already exempt. As for next year?
"I'll keep both cards," he said, "and do what the best players in the world do."
CADDIE SERVICES: After their final rounds were over at the U.S. Open, a number of caddies carried a white slip of paper to a USGA office and came back with as much as $550 cash in their pocket.
Just call them human Shotlink machines.
The USGA offered bonus cash to caddies to kept track of shot selections for their players. It was part of the USGA's effort to try to get Pinehurst No. 2 just right for the U.S. Women's Open this week.
"We don't have a lot of data on women's golf," USGA executive director Mike Davis said.
The USGA had equipment in place to measure distances throughout the course. Getting the clubs from caddies was crucial because Davis is trying -- and he's already conceded that he won't be able to get it right -- to have the women play the same kind of shot. The key will be the firmness of the greens.
"It's like Shotlink data, only we're taking it one step further," Davis said.
"We had volunteers at every green, even during the practice rounds. They were charting eight things a ball could do when it hit the greens."
That's a lot of numbers to crunch. And over four days this week, the USGA will see how close it came to getting No. 2 in comparable shape.
STUDY UP: Michelle Wie picked up a few good books to read before playing the U.S. Women's Open -- the yardage books of U.S. Open runner-up Rickie Fowler and Keegan Bradley, who tied for fourth, along with the books their caddies kept.
Wie knows both players from living in South Florida.
"Knowledge is key around here, just knowing where to miss it, where not to miss it," she said. "It's such a unique experience to have the information. You normally go up to a golf course site, the information would probably be from like years ago from when they replayed it or something. But this is pretty fresh information and it's pretty similar conditions to what we'll play it. So hopefully, I think it's going to be very useful and I'm very thankful that they gave it to me for me to use."

David E. Schuster has no campaign staff or money. He gets no media attention and his only marketing push is a sign outside his Blount County home that he made from scrap materials. But he wants to be your president. (Robert Wilson)

Count David E. Schuster among those who want to be your president.
Except for the fact that he has no campaign treasury, no staff, no 50-state strategy and his name will appear on no ballot, his chances are as good as anyone else's.
What he does have is a platform and a sign he made from scrap materials and placed out in front of his Blount County home. And a passel of YouTube videos.
A native of Lunenburg, Mass., Schuster, 53, acknowledges his position as a "very long shot" to be elected. Still, he says, "I am very serious."

2012: Another year of politics wiping us out
ESTHER CEPEDA email@example.com January 15, 2012 8:16PM
Updated: February 17, 2012 8:06AM
The only question on everyone's lips these days is "will the economy — employment levels, home values, wage increases — fully recover soon?"
According to the yearly gathering of brilliant economic minds at the Executives' Club of Chicago Annual Economic Outlook luncheon, the answer is "not in 2012."
Held the day after the first anniversary of Illinois' 67 percent income tax increase and 50 percent increase in the state corporate tax — and just days after the state's credit rating was downgraded by Moody's to the detestable spot of lowest state in the country — the atmosphere was as glum as I've ever seen it.
The distinguished panelists, with our own Terry Savage as moderator, described the coming year as hinging on two things: the health of the European Union and our presidential election.
The three experts — Diane Swonk, cheif economist at Mesirow Financial, Dennis Gartman, editor of the Gartman Letter, and the hyperkinetic Robert Froehlich, chief investment strategist at the Hartford Financial Services Group — mostly agreed that the eurozone will keep limping along without a breakup or a major recession. But it's the upcoming election that keeps them up at night.
The ever-plain-spoken Swonk put it this way: "Our biggest problem is that we're suffering from political impotence." Aside from jobs growth numbers that came from unsustainable low-income jobs like couriers and messengers, and a Christmas shopping season hype that far exceeded the sales reality, she told the crowd that politics is the country's worst problem.
"We have tax cuts ready to expire and they cause distortions and uncertainty because no one knows what will expire when and what the tax code will be moving forward, the super committee failed and we're looking at 1.2 trillion in automatic cuts and the rating agencies are ready to downgrade us," Swonk said.
Even usually optimistic Froehlich wasn't as sunny this year. Onto the pile of bad news he threw a housing market that won't start healing for decades, continued high unemployment resulting from baby boomers who can't afford to retire, and companies that will continue to overwork existing employees. His outlook, too, revolved around politics.
"The Democrats drew the short straw this election cycle; it's the worst anti-incumbent mood in years and there's nothing more divisive in this country right now than healthcare," Froehlich said. "Unless the Supreme Court finds the mandate unconstitutional in June, if the Republicans can take the White House — or even just the Senate — they'll throw out healthcare reform." This, he said, would at least lead to a healthcare sector boom.
Gartman predicted that very little will happen until our political contests are settled at the end of the year. "I don't think anybody can have any idea [what's going to happen economically] until the Republican candidate, then the winner of presidency, and the [parties controlling] the Senate and the House are known. Anything that does happen will be relatively small."
Swonk hoped that the lame duck congress will have time to put together a reasonable debt reduction plan, but she said, "The election in November is not likely to change the course of political decision-making in Washington unless everyone is willing to put individual agendas aside and do what democracy demands: legislate and be willing to make decisions."
Ugh! If the last four years are any indicator, there's little chance of that.
What a depressing set of predictions for 2012: We're barely through the middle of January, some of us are already tired of the day-to-day election news coverage, and the year's already a wash.

"My husband is the one who picked these out for our daughter's baptism. They turned out perfectly simple just the way we wanted them."
"These cards are absolutely stunning. The colors, the design the font everything! The shipping was practically next day. Yet again I am very happy with Tiny Prints. Thank you :)"
"Invitation met, if not exceeded, expectations with regard to quality and appearance. Beautiful design. Ordered with the pearl accent and scalloped edge; just dainty enough. Quick service and shipping too. Smaller in person than I anticipated, but perhaps I didn't pay enough attention to size details when ordering (thought it would be closer to 5 x 7; think the scalloped edging also makes it seem a little smaller - but still very pretty). Very pleased overall."
"We used the recommended fonts with a ticket trim on the premium double thick card paper. We have twins, so we ordered 2 sets of these invitations and we are extremely pleased with the finished look, especially for the low price. The gold metallic envelopes perfectly complement the khaki background on the light blue cross."
"This card arrived exactly as pictured. I have ordered several items and they are always perfect! The ability to view your proof as you designing it is awesome!! Really fast delivery too!"

Social change has influenced the food industry, which is under massive pressure with ever shorter development times. Determining shelf-life is of particular importance because many foods are discarded while still edible and only because the "best before" date has expired. BINDER Environmental Simulation Chambers can be used to simulate an accelerated shelf-life through increased temperatures and higher humidity from which the actual shelf-life is then derived. This white paper explores trends in consumer behavior and how the food industry has changed in industrialized countries.

Web Scraping with Scrapy - first steps
Just so that you have an idea of what it looks like, come on take a peek at the code of a little program below that uses Scrapy to extract some information (link, title and number of views) from a…
Florianopolis, Brazil
I got started programming at the university, but I was already writing down notes from the programming books at school before I even had a computer at home. Since then, I've always enjoyed building stuff using the computer, from music scores to simple animations and games all the way to full-stack web applications. I also have a great time automating the boring tasks of the day-to-day, doing things like shell-scripts and browser extensions that make things easier.
I love working with great people and using my skills to solve people's problems, making my small impact on the world. I strive to be not only a skilled hacker but also a great team player.
2014 - Current
I collaborate on a team building crawlers for Scrapinghub's clients using Scrapy and the company infrastructure. Besides writing code for the crawlers, I mentor new team members, write docs and tools to ease the workflow and have regular meetings with the client.
I built a tool to generate graphical reports showing the health of crawling jobs that improved the client's prioritization and decision making.
I also wrote a tutorial for the Scrapy framework focused on helping a beginner to get started quickly.
2013 - 2014
I worked remotely in Gendoc's research team, helping to solve business problems and some technological challenges, involving mostly image processing, NLP, data mining and machine learning.
In my first month, I developed a web application that displays the output of an OCR layout analysis and allows to create ground truth files.
I've developed an algorithm to evaluate the quality of the output of an OCR system.
I worked on information extraction from documents written in natural language.
I also wrote a simple webapp that collects user answers about samples to build a training database.
2011 - 2013
UFSC is the Federal University of Santa Catarina
Development of webapps for the administrative needs of the university, using mostly Java Web technologies.
I've also been involved in setting up solutions for JBoss/Tomcat servers monitoring and a continuous integration system.
I and other colleagues self-organized ourselves into a team using some Scrum techniques to help us to work more effectively on multiple projects at the same time.
2009 - 2011
SERPRO is a large government-owned corporation that provides information technological support for the federal government.
I worked as a developer in a large team building a large-scale Java Web business application. I also did some work with the IT team, helping them to build and improve performance of their PHP solution for network monitoring.
Later on I worked with SCM, which involved handling release and deploy of the modules, merging branches, communicating with the teams, automating tasks and writing some docs.
2007 - 2009
I started working as an intern in this startup (which at the time, functioned inside the University where I studied), initially developing features for the Web application in PHP. Later on, I was also responsible for maintaining the servers, keeping the network services working, improving the processes (set up version control and bug tracker), and localizing their Web application.
I had a lot of fun in this place, learned a lot, and helped to solve some of the challenges they faced at the time.
2004 - 2009
I worked as intern in different internship programs through 4 years during my graduation, doing mostly systems administration tasks, web programming and a bit of documentation writing.

A Software Developer's Guide to Working Well with Others

Also, how well I work with others it's what'll make or break my career.

Reflections on the Craft of Programming
Peter Seibel
This book is basically interviews of several programmers I admire, some with very different opinions. I think it showed me that we still have so much to learn about programming and software engineering. Also, it's ok to not follow the latest fad and just work hard at what you believe: just make it worthy.
The Art of Building Great User Experience in Software
EffectiveUI, Jonathan Anderson, John McRee, Robb Wilson
