A resident of the neighborhood off of Guinida neighborhood said the shooting happened off of Guinida Lane and Palm Drive. About 200 protesters are on the scene.

UPDATED, 1:15 A.M.: Gustavo here. City News Service is reporting that Anaheim police shot and killed a suspected car thief late last night in the 400 block of West Guinida Lane. The family is on the scene sobbing.
Anaheim police on scene
Amber Stephens/OC Weekly
Guinida is the same neighborhood where Anaheim police shot and killed David Raya back in 2011--in fact, tonight's shooting happened just three blocks away. And, of course, all this follows a weekend where police shot an unarmed man to death and went crazy on angry citizens, who responded in kind with burning trash cans.
UPDATE, 2:08 A.M.: Family friends tell the Weekly that the man shot and killed by Anaheim police late Sunday night is Joel Acevedo of Anaheim.
Acevedo, at right
I found out about this via Facebook, as the mother of Acevedo is a friend of mine. After posting about the earlier melees, the mother (whose name I won't mention) wrote, "I was out and about earlier downtown getting dinner and my car washed. It was eerie. The streets seemed a lil too quiet and sad. My heart seemed to race the few times I heard an ambulance and a firetruck zoom by."
Little did she know that they'd be racing toward her son later that night.
The mother is telling me that police won't let her see her dead son. Details to come...
UPDATED, 3:35 A.M.: This is Amber reporting back from the Guinida neighborhood. The scene is calm with only about 20 authorities on the scene and a handful of residents still reeling from the days' events. A source told OC Weekly that Acevedo's family tried to cross police lines to see his body earlier tonight and they were not allowed.
The silver SUV Acevedo was driving when he was shot by Anaheim Police
Sgt. Bob Dunn from the Anaheim Police Department said a handgun was found in the silver SUV driven by Acevedo, which was reportedly stolen. Three other occupants were also in the car. Dunn said after police officers engaged in a car pursuit, an occupant of the car shot at police, which led to police to shoot back.
A female resident who lives in the apartments right above where the shooting took place told OC Weekly she heard five consecutive shots, with no apparent gun exchange. Another resident who lives a few blocks down said she heard a loud crash then sirens blaring of at least 20 police cars, which she says drowned out the noise of the apparent gunshots.
UPDATED, 11:00 A.M.: A photo has been released of Acevedo's body with a handgun sitting between his legs.

A Tale of Two Heroes: Jamie Bryner & LCpl Steven Szwydek!
Jamie Bryner is a hero in my book! Fair Winds Steven. We miss you! - JHD
Monday July 10, 2006
Town memorializes hero
by JENNIFER FITCH
Jamie Bryner never had a conversation with Lance Cpl. Steven W. Szwydek before an improvised explosive device killed the 20-year-old Marine last October.
The pair was separated by eight years and half the world at the time.
Yet Bryner's actions not only brought him closer to Szwydek's spirit, they united 600 people given the opportunity Sunday to memorialize their friend, neighbor, classmate and fellow Marine.
"Jamie, I hope you know the impact you've had on us and all the people in this auditorium and how important it is that we never forget," Nancy Szwydek said to the 13-year-old Needmore, Pa., resident who made her son his "fallen hero."
In two months, Jamie solicited more than $5,000 needed to give Southern Fulton High School a statue honoring the 2003 graduate who served with Weapons Co., 2nd Battalion, Regimental Combat Team 8, 2nd Marine Division, also known as 2/2 Weapons Co.
Jamie, an eighth-grader in the Southern Fulton School District, only met Szwydek twice before his final deployment to Iraq last summer. The only thing the boy knew they had in common was a lifelong desire to be a Marine.
"That, ladies and gentlemen, is exactly what's right with our younger generation," said Maj. Curtis Hill, a Fulton County, Pa., native who served as master of ceremonies.
The afternoon's ceremony culminated with the statue's unveiling, after haunting selections performed by the St. Patrick's Chorale and a Marine Corps brass quintet, remarks from commanding officers and the 2/2 Weapons Co. chaplain, and gratitude expressed by the Szwydeks and Bryners.
People representing several branches of the military and several generations thanked Jamie, frequently calling him a Marine. Jamie plans to attend Young Marines boot camp next summer and is preparing care packages to send overseas.
"Jamie, since the age of 3, has had a passion for this," said his father, Curtis.
The statue, displaying combat boots and a helmet, is not only dedicated to Szwydek, but everyone killed while serving the United States.
Steven Szwydek "was a kind, caring soldier. He was willing to lay down his life for his freedom," Jamie said.
"Freedom is not free. We do vow to make sure no one forgets that," Nancy Szwydek said.
Her youngest son, Corey Szwydek, is preparing to train with the U.S. Navy.
Watching servicemen from the 2/2 Weapons Co. gathered around the statue, she called them "my Marines."

Our concept
Experience excellent healthcare
Skåne Care is the international gateway to the skills, services, and expertise offered by the public healthcare system of Region Skåne in Sweden's southern province. World-renowned Skåne University Hospital in Lund and Malmö is the hub within our wide network of specialised hospitals in ten locations, with around 150 primary healthcare clinics managed or funded by Region Skåne. 30,000 healthcare professionals serve Skåne's 1.3 million residents as well as national and international referrals. Medical research, training and education is performed in close cooperation with Lund University and Malmö University.
Skåne is Sweden's most southerly province and forms the link between Sweden and Europe. It is easily accessed via Copenhagen International Airport, just 30 minutes from Skåne University Hospital in Malmö. A popular tourist destination with cities, forests, and seaside, Skåne is a multicultural region with more than 160 nationalities. In Skåne more than 100 languages are spoken, and most people are proficient in English.
We offer:
- Collaboration with world-renowned Skåne University Hospital.
- Transfer of the Swedish healthcare model to an international context.
- International patient referrals.
- Education and training programmes for medical professionals.
- Management consulting services for clinics, hospitals, and administrators.
- Wide network of both public and private partners in Sweden.
Why Sweden?
Top-ranked healthcare
The quality of healthcare in Sweden is consistently top-ranked internationally. For instance, Sweden is in a shared top position when it comes to attainment of the health-related indicators for the Sustainable Development Goals and the life expectancy at birth is 82 years, among the highest in the world (WHO, 2012).
Swedish healthcare constantly strives to improve medical results. One unique tool is our approximately 100 national quality registries. We use these registries for learning, improvement, research, and management to create the best possible healthcare. In addition, Sweden is involved in international collaboration on specialised care, improving patient safety, and increasing patient influence.
The Swedish healthcare system:
- Produces the highest quality medical results while keeping costs at OECD average.
- Builds on the principles of quality, reliability, efficiency, and equality.
- Is decentralised to regional levels.
- Is largely publicly funded.
Why Skåne?
research and clinical practice IN AN INNOVATIVE CONTEXT
Healthcare in Skåne is outstanding because of collaboration among academic institutions, industries, and clinics. Every day in Skåne, research and clinical practice integrate and interact to push quality of healthcare forward.
For example, Skåne University Hospital is among the three largest university hospitals in Sweden, offering unique expertise in comprehensive healthcare, medical training, and frontline research. Lund University has a long and vibrant history covering over 300 years of research and is today the largest university in Scandinavia and one of the top 100 in the world. Together, their close association allows for integrating groundbreaking research into medical services that support outstanding patient care in prevention, diagnosis, and treatment.
Research and clinical collaboration has enriched Skåne's healthcare system for decades. Today a major regional focus, connected health – such as eHealth, Digital Health, mHealth, Telehealth, and Telecare – is an area where highly skilled companies collaborate with care providers and researchers to develop tools for a viable market. These tools help create completely new opportunities to deliver healthcare and health information, enhance the quality of healthcare provided, coordinate healthcare activities, improve patient quality of life, and contribute to increased patient participation, independence, and security.
Our home of Skåne
Welcome to a charming place
The beautiful scenery, vibrant cities, and close proximity to the continent makes Skåne, Sweden's most southerly province, well worth exploring. Skåne offers creative, unusual, and authentic experiences within close distances.
We have 400 kilometers of coastline in three directions with long, inviting sandy beaches, as well as deep forests in the central and northeastern parts, and steep rocky precipices in the northwest. The rural areas and the charming fishing villages are close to the cities, with cosmopolitan Malmö in the southwest and the major European city of Copenhagen close by. The region is multicultural with over 160 nationalities and 100 different languages. Most people are proficient in English.
Skåne's history is clearly visible, not least at our 200 castles and manors. Culturally you find international concert halls, art exhibitions, theatre and cuisine to suit all tastes.

Can skin cells repair brains?
By Tim Friend, USA TODAY
Researchers have performed the first gene therapy procedure
for Alzheimer's disease on a 60-year-old Oregon woman as a step toward learning
whether implants of genetically engineered tissue can arrest the loss of brain
Index on Aging
The gene therapy safety trial is being conducted by the
University of California-San Diego. The strategy, developed by UCSD neurologist
Mark Tuszynski, is to genetically engineer skin cells taken from a patient and
convert them into biological factories that produce a natural substance called
nerve growth factor. The cells are then transplanted into areas deep in the
brain where, theoretically, they release nerve growth factor into the surrounding
tissue and prevent or slow nerve cell degeneration.
The hope is the altered cells containing nerve growth factor
will restore vitality to brain cells ravaged by Alzheimer's disease, Tuszynski
The patient, who wishes to remain anonymous, was treated
April 5. She received five implants of the gene-altered cells.
Tuszynski received permission to conduct the gene therapy
trial from the Food and Drug Administration in October 1999. Published studies
conducted by Tuszynski in rats and primates have suggested that nerve growth
factor may slow the destruction of a type of brain cell that is thought to contribute
to dementia in Alzheimer's disease. The brain cells produce a substance called
acetycholine, which is critical to normal brain function. Current Alzheimer's
drug therapies attempt to boost acetylcholine in the brain. Rats and primates
do not develop Alzheimer's disease, so scientists can only speculate about possible
results in humans.
"When studies were done in animals, the beneficial effects
of nerve growth factor have been detected as soon as weeks to months after implantation.
It will take several years to ultimately determine whether this therapy is effective,
however," Tuszynski says.
The purpose of this Phase 1 study is to determine only
whether the implants cause damage or toxicity to the brain. If the cell transplants
are deemed safe by the FDA, the research can progress to Phase 2 to begin looking
at whether patients are benefiting.
Tuszynski says the current study is funded by a private
foundation and a private trust. But future research will be sponsored by a newly
formed company, Ceregene, in which he says he has a financial interest.
Ceregene is a subsidiary of Cell Genesys of Foster City,
Calif., which has created several other successful subsidiaries in the biotechnology
arena. Ceregene has licensed the methods developed by Tuszynski for converting
skin cells into "mini-pumps" for nerve growth factor.
"This is an area that is building increasing momentum in
gene therapy," says Stephen Sherwin, chairman of Ceregene and chairman and CEO
of Cell Genesys. "We have taken what we consider to be precious assets, patents
and genes, and made this bet."

TCI announced today that the Company reported, for the three months ended June 30, 2011, a net loss applicable to common shares of $41.1 million or $4.88 per diluted earnings per share, as compared to a net loss applicable to common shares of $20.7 million or $2.54 per diluted earnings per share for the same period ended 2010. Rental and other property revenues were $31.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This represents an increase of $1.2 million, as compared to the prior period revenues of $30.6 million. The change, by segment, is an increase in the commercial portfolio of $0.5 million and an increase in the apartment portfolio of $0.7 million. Within the apartment portfolio, the developed apartments had an increase of $0.3 million and the same properties had an increase of $0.4 million. Our apartment portfolio has continued to thrive with the addition of several newly developed properties and continuous improvements within our existing portfolio, which has led to the rental growth in the second quarter. The commercial portfolio received a lease buyout fee in the second quarter of 2011, which led to the increase in comparison to the prior year. Property operating expenses were $16.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011. This represents a decrease of $1.9 million, as compared to the prior period operating expenses of $18.1 million. This change, by segment, is a decrease in the commercial portfolio of $0.5 million, a decrease in the apartment portfolio of $0.6 million, and a decrease in the land and other portfolios of $0.7 million. Property management, in both the residential and commercial portfolios, has been diligent in reducing overall costs and unnecessary repair and maintenance expenses without compromising the quality of services provided. We have reduced the number of land development projects that are in progress, thereby reducing expenses from the year prior.

CBER stated that they agree with the use of homologous H3N2 egg-based reagents; however, CBER does not recommend the use of heterologous reagents for B strain. This is based on CBER's experience with discrepant results when heterologous reagents were used during the H1N1 pandemic.
While heterologous reagents for the H1N1 strain were re-calibrated by CBER, Novartis refused to test this year's vaccine with the homologous B strain reagents, available from NIBSC. This caused a concern, particularly when Novartis has been using the homologous B strain reagents for releasing vaccine in Europe.
Novartis argued that they did not know if they could use reagents from NIBSC.
To move forward with this issue, CBER decided to test all lots with the homologous reagents B strain reagents for lot release at CBER.

I work with a lot of APIs and I really appreciate good tools. Lately I've been really enjoying using Runscope for testing and monitoring my APIs so I thought I'd share how I work with this tool, which has a great one-person free tier *and* the ability to import/export tests so if you need to work with a team with just the free tier (the examples here are from an open source project which is an obvious use case where it's hard to fund tools), it's clunky but doable. The idea here is just to show you around how to create your own API tests with Runscope (and also to write down what I did so I can point both my future self and others at this!) Continue reading

Git Won't Check Out A Path It Autocompleted
One of my git repositories has developed a tendency to refuse to checkout a feature branch locally that exists on the remote repo. My git bash completion works, but then strange things happen! It turned out to be that I had two remotes with the same refspec, so I thought I'd write down the behaviour I saw and hopefully help someone else to fix this problem faster if they see it.

Why My Open Source Project Needs a Code of Conduct
I'm an open source project maintainer, working on the projects associated with joind.in, and recently we added a Code of Conduct to all our projects (we have quite a few as you can see from our github organisation page https://github.com/joindin).
I feel the same way about codes of conduct for open source projects as I do about codes of conduct for events. You can absolutely run a totally safe and effective event without one, but by having one you make very clear what your expectations are - and in turn this manages the expectations of the people attending that event.

Git Pull Causes a Merge
If you type
git pull and expect a fast-forward update, but get a merge instead, don't panic! This usually happens when we're collaborating on a branch with other people, and we've made changes on our local version of a branch, and someone else (or the other you, if you use git to sync between multiple dev platforms) has made changes to the remote version of a branch in the meantime. It also happens really frequently in teams where all commits are to the
master branch ... yet another reason to have a decent branching strategy.
All that's happened is something like this:
$ git log --oneline --all --graph --decorate * 054f163 (HEAD, branch1) Installation instructions for the application | * 0ce808c (origin/branch1) Fixing template layout |/ * 927aad9 A random change of 731 to ideas2.txt
Since the last common commit, there are commits on your local branch, and the remote one. You could just let the merge go ahead but there are other options. You could also check out a new branch at this point, reset your tracking branch to the right place and then reapply your changes using cherry-pick or by rebasing and then fast-forward merging your branch.

Debugging rst2pdf and pygments
I create my slide decks from ReStructuredText, which is a text markup format. Working this way makes it easy to add into source control, fast to work with, and also accessible since I don't use a mouse or other pointing device so traditional slide deck creation programs are kind of difficult. Text-based wins every time for me. While working on a new slide template, I ran into some difficulties and had to figure out how to inspect what was going on. I seem to struggle with this every time so I am writing my troubleshooting guide here for when I need it next. Continue reading
The Microphone Is Your Friend
This post is an adaptation from an email I sent to a friend who is doing their first few conference talks. I was asked to share more widely so here it is
The microphone is your friend, honestly :) Even if you think you can be heard, there are some definite benefits to using a mic if it's available:
- you actually can be heard
- even people with less-than-excellent hearing can hear you
- the video recording can hear you as well
- you now have the option to employ some vocal variety: exclaiming, pausing, stage whisper ... it all adds interest and colour to what you are saying
There are a few different types of mic and each one has its own quirks! Continue reading
So You're Thinking Of Submitting A Talk
I've been a conference speaker for a lot of years now, which doesn't make me an expert but it does mean that people ask me for advice pretty regularly! With the Call for Papers open for PHP North West at the moment (awesome conference, first weekend in October, CfP at http://conference.phpnw.org.uk/phpnw15/call-papers/), I've taken this question a few times. Here's my advice in a nutshell:
- Think about what's interesting that you could share with other developers. The key here is that the people listening should go away with something useful, rather than just the impression that you're awesome
- Write it down. You don't need to write the talk before you submit - just a title and an abstract will do. The abstract should be one paragraph, maximum 200-250 words
- A great abstract says why this topic is vital, what cool things will be covered, who should come and what they will learn. I'm paraphrasing but those are the basics!
- Submit your abstract to http://helpmeabstract.com/ to get feedback from some lovely volunteers who will help you (bookmark the gist and keep revisiting it, the system doesn't notify you or anything ... yet. Pretty sure you can submit patches while procrastinating on a slide deck though)
- Did you get this far without submitting? That's normal :) Remember that your community needs new voices. Each of us is ahead of *someone* on the path, you absolutely don't need to be the expert to have something to offer to the rest of us. So please, submit :)
Notify New Relic of Jenkins Deploys
I'm a fan of Jenkins as a build server, and on one particular project we've also started using New Relic (I haven't figured out how to blog fun things about New Relic without sharing graphs of client applications which doesn't seem like a cool thing to do). New Relic has a feature where you can notify it when you do a deployment, and it shows on the graphs a line marking when that happened, which is super useful for correlating performance changes with code changes.
Code Reviews: Before You Even Run The Code
I do a lot of code reviewing, both in my day job as principal developer and also as an open source maintainer. Sometimes it seems like I read more code than I write! Is that a problem? I'm tempted to say that it isn't. To be a good writer, you must be well-read; I believe that to be a good developer, you need to be code-omnivorous and read as much of other people's code as possible. Code reviews are like little chapters of someone else's code to dip into.
Over time I've developed some particular processes that I find helpful when reviewing code. In particular, I often surprise people at how much review I do before I run the code. Sometimes I grab the branch so that I can use my local diff tools, but I don't actually execute code until I've established some basic facts. This post is a little insight into what's happening in this not-running-the-code-yet zone. Continue reading

Blue notes
I've just returned from attending the second half of the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival, an extraordinary four days of music spread across 12 stages with live shows from 11am to 7pm. The only problem is that you can't be in two places at the same time and there are always at least that many performances worth seeing taking place simultaneously.
The most difficult choice was whether to hear the Neville Brothers or the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, who between them closed the festival on its two main stages. Both sets were going to be special, but since the Preservation Hall set was a celebration of the band's 50th anniversary, it seemed the better bet - but only just.
So it turned out, with a magnificent performance including guest appearances from Allen Toussaint, Bonnie Raitt, Ani DiFranco, Steve Earle, Trombone Shorty, Jazz Fest founder George Wein and New Orleans trumpeter Lionel Ferbos - who is 100 years old and still playing highly effectively.
I gather the Neville Brothers were pretty good too.
It turns out there is an opportunity this weekend to catch two of the Jazz Fest acts I missed a little closer to home. The Venetian Macao is holding a three-day carnival which takes New Orleans and Mardi Gras as its theme.
Representing the music of Louisiana are a stripped-down version of the Neville Brothers calling themselves The Nevilles, leading cajun/creole/zydeco band the Pine Leaf Boys, and a New Orleans-style brass band led by tuba player Michael Foster.
Aaron Neville will not be appearing, but Neville Brothers and Meters founding member Art Neville will be leading a band which also features Charles and Ivan Neville.
Those bands will be playing the Venetian Carnival Charity Ball on Saturday, and the weekend's programme of events will be officially opened on Friday at 7pm by guitarist and vocalist George Benson - a bona fide jazz legend as well as a pop star - who at 8pm will perform in The Venetian Theatre.
Tickets for Benson's performance are available from www.cotaiticketing.com for HK$400, HK$600 and HK$800; tickets for the ball from the same source cost HK$1,200.
Performing for free on a stage in front of the hotel from 6pm on Friday will be 12 jazz and blues bands from around Asia competing for HK$500,000 in cash prizes in the Venetian Macao International Jazz & Blues Competition 2012.
The winner will be announced at about 10pm on Sunday and, given the value of the prizes, the organisers are expecting to attract high-calibre talent. The first prize is HK$250,000, the second prize is HK$150,000 and the third prize is HK$100,000.
The Michael Foster band lead New Orleans-style street parades around the property and the Pine Leaf Boys will make outdoor appearances playing short sets.
Among those, the must-see act is Benson, who will be 70 next year. With his pop-star heyday behind him he is now integrating into his shows more of the funky blues- based jazz guitar which made his reputation in the first place.
Before his commercial breakthrough - mostly instrumental - album Breezin', on which he sang Leon Russell's This Masquerade, Benson was regarded by many as the single best guitarist in jazz and the heir-apparent to Wes Montgomery. He was a frequent poll winner, and performed as a sideman with heavyweights including Miles Davis, Jimmy Smith, Lee Morgan and Hank Mobley.
Breezin' was the first jazz album to sell a million copies, and earlier records such as The New Boss Guitar of George Benson and The George Benson Cookbook have worn well.
He has 10 Grammys to his name, mostly for pop performances, and earned his success as a singer, even if it was at the expense of his instrumental talent, which he has never allowed to rust. You can certainly expect to hear the vocal hits, but with a bit of luck he may feel inclined to let his guitar do a fair amount of the talking.
Take Three
Three recent albums by participants in the Venetian Macao's carnival.
Back Home (Valcour Records, 2010): this album from cajun and creole music specialists the Pine Leaf Boys won them their fourth Grammy nomination and comprises tunes they grew up hearing in Louisiana dance halls, sung in both French and English.
Gold (Hip O-Records, 2005): the definitive anthology of the best recordings by the Neville Brothers, both individually and collectively, includes several hits by The Meters and spans five decades from Art Neville's 1954 hit with The Hawketts, Mardi Gras Mambo, to the title track of the Neville Brothers' most recent studio album, 2004's Walkin' in the Shadow of Life. Vintage stuff.
Guitar Man (Concord, 2011): there should be something here both for fans of Benson's crooning and for jazz lovers who tend to wish he'd just shut up and play his guitar. Vocally he is in fine form and his guitar work is much further to the fore than usual. The Champs' Tequila was one of Montgomery's signature pieces, and the highlight of the album is a fine version of John Coltrane's Naima.

My room is an absolute disaster and its only a 12' by 12' room. Things I have: a queen bed, a six drawer dresser, a large corner desk, a small 3' by 3' closet and, a floor lamp. I currently have everything under my bed and in my closet. I need to organize and we can't go out and buy anything.
By Erin

First, get rid of the queen bed. go double or even single, (if you can). Also, think vertical, multi-purpose. See if you can get trade-in credit at a thrift or consignment shop. Try a hide-a-bed or even a daybed or futon that folds down to a bed at night.
A small room looks even smaller when large things are moved in. If you downsized to even a double, you may gain more space.
Have each piece of furniture do more than one duty: Desk that has a drawer for hanging files instead a separate stand for them. Dresser that will hold a TV, DVD player, etc, as well as clothes.
Go through your clothes with an objective mind. If you did not wear it in the last season it was meant for, donate it.
Same with books. Keep only a few that really mean a lot to you. Donate the rest. Magazines? Scan the articles you bought the magazine for, then donate to shelters, doctor's offices, and hospital lounges. (just be sure if you subscribe to that mag, your address does not remain on the mag, even if you have to use scissors to cut out that info.)
Post on local sites (like freecycle or craig's list) and maybe you can trade w/someone locally w/o any money changing hands. (just be careful if you have someone come to your home).
A note of files, receipts, etc:
I have a filing system that works for me. In a portable filing box (I bought it at Office Depot, it has locking tabs, like a briefcase) and I keep the current year's bills/receipts in it). I have three colors of folders: Red: Bank statements, rent receipts, anything legal, such as taxes, etc. Anything that needs immediate attention that is not a regular occurring thing. Yellow: medical, online purchases, schooling (report cards, progress reports, etc) Things that are not usual in everyday living, but not as urgent as red. and Blue: Bills. anything that comes with a regularity. Car payments, including insurance, DMV business, etc. Have a sub-folder in there for each car you own. We only have one, though.
Keep a black folder for new appliance handbook. Staple the receipt on the INSIDE of the cover of the handbook. Keep warranty information with the handbook.
For everything you bring in, one thing must go: buy a new purse, one old one goes out.
I know some of this sounds harsh, but I also live in a very small living space. I have gained a lot of space doing this.
Good luck. I'd be interested to know what you do with your space.

I have a very small bedroom and am in desperate need of ideas. Does anyone have any for me?
By Lena from Portland, ME
The basic theory here is you need to go "up" to make more room. If you haven't filled up yet on furniture you can get a wardrobe with drawers in the lower half and room to hang in the upper half.
You can get a hanging shoe rack: it has a hanger top and many pouches normally for shoes, but you can use the pouches for many things. Hang it on the back of your door or in the closet if you put stuff in it you don't readily need.
If you have a head or foot board on your bed devise pouches to hang on those for room.
Of course under the bed is space to use, but it helps if you can organize it. That shoe storage box they advertise on TV is really ideal and again you don't have to put shoes in it. Ask for one for Christmas.
Good luck. (11/24/2009)

Floor to ceiling book cases are the way to go. You have to build them, but the lumber yard will cut them to the size you want. If you stabilize them to the wall with a bracket they can be taken apart and moved with you. You can place plastic boxes on them and you won't believe the amount of storage space you have on the top shelves and the usable space you have on the lower shelves. (11/28/2009)
By Ann
If you can, put shelves around the entire room about 18 inches from the ceiling. You can put things up there that decorate, but aren't needed below eye level. Good luck. (11/28/2009)
I rent a small bedroom and I go nuts trying to find anything like hair stuff, a measuring tape, trinkets, etc. It seems like my stuff is everywhere since I put things away on impulse then forget where I put them. I need help grouping miscellaneous stuff and how or where to store it. I want my room to look nice.
Loni from Albuquerque, NM
People have a tendency to cover the floors of a room and forget the walls have lots of storage area. I suggest you buy an inexpensive particle board shelving unit you can take with you when you move. This unit can be used to store folded clothing or anything you like. If you want to store small items like hair barrettes, etc, use plastic shoe boxes from the dollar store. You can label them as to what's inside, or just see through the plastic. Best of luck. (07/31/2006)
By Carol in PA
I use an old Christmas tin to put hair things in, another to put stuff like nail clippers, tweezers, etc. I also bought some of those little plastic baskets from the dollar store and keep make-up, medicines, pens, pencils, and paper in them. (08/01/2006)
By micksgirl
I have a similar problem with a closet in my bathroom. To organize cosmetics, toiletries, nail polish lipsticks etc., I have collected an array of small straw and wire baskets. I put alike things in each basket and have gotten used to putting things back in the correct basket after use. This makes getting ready for work each morning so much easier. I rarely spend any time searching for anything; I can go right to the correct basket. You could do the same in your closet, in dresser drawers, or on shelves. Keeps things looking neat and orderly. (08/01/2006)
By Claudia-MD
The stackable plastic drawer units are nice. We have this one thing we keep in the bathroom, it has 3 small drawers and my daughter keeps her hair accessories in it. You could also use baskets that you can see what's inside, or those clear plastic shoe boxes with lids are nice and you can stack them. (08/01/2006)

Those are all great and workable ideas. You might also try this for a neat and tidy "open space" room. Purchase one of those inexpensive clear vinyl shoe holders that can hang on the back of your bedroom door; there are 20 or so clear "pockets" that really don't hold up well to storing shoes, but are superb at sorting socks/nylons, hair pieces and barrettes, (don't put a hot curling iron in!), brushes, make up, even the tape measure/sewing kits, nail care items, etc. And the best part is when your door is open, your dresser/furniture tops can be less cluttered and all your items are tucked safely behind the door!

In my room I put cheap black wire shelving in with baskets and patterned boxes from the dollar store, Wal-mart, etc. I think it looks really nice for low dollars. I keep a master list of what's in each box or basket. Or you could label the containers directly. (08/05/2006)
By Rebecca Dunham
Well, being a frugal queen sometimes, I actually learned that when someone tosses an old dishwasher, which happens frequently in our city, I grab the utensil basket from each one, which is usually either white or blue/green, and each one usually comes with a handle, all for free. These hold separate items well, frequently match in size, shape
and color, are almost always very clean and unstained, are sturdier than dollar store plastics, and can fit most any shelf.
Drawback is that they are not out of sight or covered from dust. However, they're VERY easy to keep clean, keep things dry, and I'm in most of them often and it doesn't matter too much. I place them on wire stacking shelves when I find those ALSO being tossed by wasteful folks. Secret: Simplify, don't keep accumulating more than you REALLY need. I use them in every area of my home for everything from gardening tools, glue bottles, bath items, under sink storage, garage for string, odd shaped small items, paint brushes and crafts. This is the best way I know to recycle them and prevent the good items from being destroyed unnecessarily in the city dump. Hope this helps. Good luck and God bless. (08/13/2006)

Lynda, what an idea, never thought of that. I have seen dishwashers at the curb quite a bit. One day in fact, I stopped and took a bottom rack from one, just to come home and be disappointed that it didn't fit my dishwasher but it was worth a chance. Mine had areas that had rusted. I would think that the utensil caddies would be good for pens, pencils, kid's crayons, art supplies perhaps, paint brushes. I'm not exactly sure, but I could probably put some to good use and will definitely pay attention on trash day in the future.
I really don't want to accumulate more "junk" in my already crowded house, but if it's something I can really put to good use, then I'm all for it! (08/29/2006)

Save up toilet paper cardboard rolls to stuff pantyhose in them. It keeps them organized and you can tell what color they are right off. Especially helps with the socks that you can never find a pair of. (07/10/2007)
I buy hat boxes at thrift stores and stack them, good for little things you have no places for. Also suitcases, I have some old vintage suitcases to store things in and just stack them. For my socks and etc. I have small tins that I picked up at the dollar store and put them on my shelf in my closet. Baskets work great for hair dryers, curling irons etc. (03/28/2008)

I have benefited from Stephen Anderson's expertise for the past six years. Mr. Anderson is an expert in intellectual property matters. I've used him extensively for trademark infringement, domain disputes, and trademark applications. Sometimes I've only needed a quick 15 minute consultation while other times required more extensive help. My fondest memory is when he successfully assisted me all the way up through trademark appeals to the highest levels of the United States Patent and Trademark Office.
When researching Avvo for an estate attorney, unfortunately not his expertise, I thought about him. I decided to take time out of my day to write this because I like him a lot. He's super honest and makes sure his client's are honest in their answers to his questions. His billing is fair. His response time is excellent. His knowledge of his niche and law in general is full. He went to Georgetown law school which is a top tier law school - he has lots of court room experience. I like his sense of humor on the phone - he makes the law fun because he truly enjoys what he does for a living.
Most importantly, he does not have an ego which is important to me...well of course most attorneys have egos...right? Maybe...anyway, he does want to win the case and has a killer instinct but he has never shown arrogance on the phone with me as his client. He is quite patient and kind.

Disclaimer: I don't own Bloodsuckers (or Vampire Wars, as it's now called apparently).
Warning: Femslash themes be here. Spoilers for the end of the movie.
A/N: So, I decided to write this on a whim. It's multi-chap, not sure if it turned out well or not - that's up to ya'll, I guess. Mostly I guess I wrote this because I'm in this RPG (see my profile for more info) loosely based on this movie, and I wanted to do something more for the movie with this since the movie is kick ass.
"What did you have in mind?" Quintana asked coyly, already having a guess as to what Rosa's request would be. It didn't take a genius to figure the Asian girl out – short, spiked hair, seriously buff physique, belligerent and mistrustful attitude. Rosa's entire being screamed 'butch,' and the fact that the vampiress apparently picked up on that fact before the rest of the crew baffled her more than she let on.
Rosa's confirmation of her expectations was merely to raise her eyebrows at her. Quintana's mind drifted back to years ago, before she'd even known any of the crew existed...
"Hey. Whatever turns you on.." Quintana leaned forward and placed her hand against Rosa's cheek. Her tongue darted out to trace along her neck before sucking on her pulse point lightly.
"Oh Quintana.. you are good... For a bloodsucker." Quintana laughed huskily, knowing that by the time she was finished Rosa's attitude with her would be all but nonexistant. 'How I love being me..' she thought in amusement.
"Are you guys sure-" Rosa forced Quintana away from her harshly as the captain reentered the bridge. His face was frozen somewhere between shock and a wide grin – it was sort of bizarre, to be honest. Quintana glared at Rosa, who returned the gaze full force when she wasn't trying to stammer out some sort of explanation.
"Both of you, in my office in ten," Damien ordered uncomfortably before leaving them. They were silent for a few moments, before Rosa turned and glared angrily at the vampire.
"I thought you had some sort of sixth sense for food – or has this been your plan all along?" Quintana spared Rosa an exasperated glance, knowing the end result of this particular line of questioning. "Trying to get me fired in the most humiliating way – no one will hire me again after this and you know it! There isn't a ship in any part of this galaxy that would hire someone known for almost fucking a bloodsucking slut-"
Quintana cut Rosa off with a sharp slap to the face before she walked calmly from the room. It wouldn't help matters to keep the captain waiting.
"I'm sure you know V-San's policy on matters such as this," Damien said. He sounded tired – exhausted even. 'Just when we were all coming together as a crew, these two decide that they should start literally coming together...'
They nodded sullenly, waiting for him to continue.
He looked at them, sensing the tension between them had returned. He rubbed his forehead and sighed. "We'll make a deal – if you two can keep yourselves under control, I suppose the company doesn't need to know about this business.."
The vampire and the purple haired girl glanced at each other, Rosa glaring hatefully and Quintana glancing disinterestedly. "This is more than we deserve, Captain. Thank you for this," Quintana said, nodding gratefully to Damien. Rosa nodded in agreement as well.
"Hey – we miss an announcement?" Roman asked, popping his head into the room along with Gilles, formerly a compatriot of Fiona. Damien waved them in.
"Good – I'm glad we cleared this up. Now, onto other matters – I've just received word from V-San that we're to take on a new mission." He spun in the chair of the ship they'd commandeered from the anti-human expansion movement, hitting a button on his remote. A screen descended from the ceiling, showing the image of a group of vampires. He hit the forward button, and the image zoomed in on a rather striking woman.
"Samantha Hartigan. Began working for V-San when she was 13 – Samantha was placed as an undercover operative in a rather advanced gang of vampires. They call themselves the Sorrow Clan – they send out hunting parties, destroying villages and taking survivors back to their homebase. According to intel gathered by Hartigan, the survivors they take with them are kept as cattle. Bred and kept alive and healthy simply so their blood can be harvested to feed the clan."
Damien hit the forward button, showing grainy images of large, comfortable living quarters and families of people living within them. There were bars over every window, and through them what appeared to be a fence topped with barbed wire. He hit the forward button again, and there was another grainy photo, this time of the grounds. Dozens of domiciles such as the first were in a long row. Several guard posts were around the perimeter, as well as guards walking dogs along the inside of the area. In the background was a rather impressive castle.
"So we go in there and help her free the humans?" Roman asked excitedly. Gilles looked a bit green at the prospect of going into a situation such as that, but Roman clapped him on the back.
"No. Our mission is to attack the hunting party Hartigan is part of at their next destination. We destroy them, and bring her with us to the rendezvous point on Anubis 12. She'll relay the information she gathered to HQ from that secure locale, and they will send in other teams to do the sanitizing of Sorrow Clan's base." Damien stood up. "We'll drop you off when we drop off Hartigan," he said to Gilles. "For now, though, I suggest we all get some rest – we'll be at their next destination sooner than you think."
Rosa and Roman got up and left, griping about not being able to go in guns blazing. Quintana left shortly after they did, heading for her own quarters, and Gilles trotted around her to catch up to his fellow humans. Damien sighed and sat back down, slouching slightly in his chair when the door slid shut. Tensions were already high among his people with just one vampire on board – he dreaded having to take on another, even temporarily.
A/N: So, what ya think?

RepairPal is your advocate for car care advice and guidance
Q: Rough idle and flutter on 1995 Nissan 200SX
I have a 95 nissan 200SX 1.6 automatic and it idles kinda rough and if i give it too much gas it flutters like i hit the rev limiter but if i easy into it it does fine. i took off the distributor cap and cleaned in up and now it idles better but not perfect. what could be the problem?
Check the sparkplugs for wear and gap, cracks, leakage, etc. Also check the sparkplug wires, they should have about 5kOhms/foot resistance and be in good physical shape, and not arcing to the head through the wires or plug boots.
Ok I checked all that and replaced its all as well. I have noticed that when its cold it runs just fine but as it heats up it starts to run rough and I think that the fluttering when I give it alot of gas is a different thing all together. I have been looking all around online and another person had the same problem and he said it was a broken bolt in the distributor and that fixed his problem but i have checked mine and there did not seem to be a problem????? any other advise?
Didn't find what you were looking for?

Just Cause 3 Dev Thinking About Bringing Mods to Consoles
The Just Cause series has had robust modding communities, and developer Avalanche is trying to make Just Cause 3 as open to mods as it can. It may even be looking to bring the game's mods to consoles.
During an appearance on GameSpot's E3 2015 stage, game director Roland Lesterlin said that the studio has been working on expanding mod availability and is thinking about bringing support to consoles. "We've been wanting to do quite a lot of that stuff for awhile," he responded when asked about Fallout 4's mod support on the Xbox One and if Avalanche has any similar plans. "We're not announcing anything there yet, but… we would want to support [mods] as much as possible."
During its E3 conference, Fallout developer Bethesda announced that mods for Fallout 4 can be used on the Xbox One and, later, the PlayStation 4. Because Microsoft is helping Bethesda solve problems related to bringing mods to consoles, the support will only be on the Xbox for a period of time after release.
Avalanche showed off Just Cause 3 at E3, and you can read our impressions of the game here. It launches on December 1 for PC, Xbox One, and PS4.read more

TIPPAH COUNTY — Supervisors may bring in a medical organization to lease and operate the publicly owned local hospital.
Supervisors and hospital officials tell the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal there are no plans to sell the Tippah County Hospital.
Supervisors say a long-term lease would keep the ownership of the hospital with the county and allow the operator to incorporate the hospital into its own system.
The company could make any improvements to the facility with its own money instead of county tax dollars. The operator also could bring needed specialty services to the hospital.
Supervisors say they likely will seek proposals from several hospital organizations.
For the past five years, the hospital has been managed by Quorum Health Services, a hospital management company, whose contract expires in January.

Database Management Systems (DBMS) are popular as a uniform data storage, and they have become increasingly popular with proliferation of mobile and web development, where file systems are either not available at all, or have restricted access.
Such proliferation has caused certain bias to using DBMS (and specifically SQLite as a built-in DBMS on mobile platforms) as a universal solution to data storage needs.
However file systems are not the thing of the past. The advancement of mobile software brings back necessity of design templates similar to those on desktop systems. In particular, the need arises to use files and file-based approaches to management of heterogeneous information. So files are still in demand and they are more suitable for many classes of data management tasks.
Here I would like to discuss the use cases where the file system is more suitable solution than DBMS.
Data encryption is a complicated goal which is to some extent contradictory to the nature of DBMS. The database needs to know size and in many cases content of the data fields for operating efficiently. This limits flexibility in data management. Modern DBMS (mostly client-server ones) provide means to encrypt table fields, but on mobile devices these capabilities are absent. Also, field encryption doesn't hide metadata and doesn't disguise the structure of data and the number of entries. So each developer needs to invent his own encryption schemes, and proper implementation of encryption is a hard to achieve goal.
At the same time encrypting files and the file system in whole is trivial. SolFS and some other file systems implement on-the-fly encryption and decryption of files in streaming mode, so you (the developer) don't need to care about this. Moreover, certain file systems, such as SolFS, support both whole-storage and per-file encryption and you can use different keys and encryption mechanisms for different files and the storage itself. And if you need to plug your own encryption (eg. certificate-based), this is not hard to do as well via callback mechanisms offered by SolFS.

This terracotta tile portrait is a rare and unusual find. It was probably made in the later part of 19th century or early 20th century. I have not taken any of these tiles off of there board frame so it is difficult to say where the piece was made. It appears to be in the style of the glazed terracotta pieces that were made in Austria and Germany. This Historismus style was very popular during this period and was influenced by medieval an renaissance pieces. It is 43" tall - 25" wide and varies from 2" to 3" deep depending on the various pieces of tile. Excellent workmanship and detail and in great antique condition. The framing is not the greatest. This would be wonderful remounted in another frame or could actually be taken off and mounted to directly to a wall.

Must Visit
The Palitana Temples are considered as the most sacred pilgrimage place of the Jains. These are a group of more than 3000 temples located on the top of Shatrunjaya hills, exquisitely carved in marble. The main temple at the top of the hill is dedicated to the 1st tirthankar Lord Adinath (Rishibdeva). The other temples on the hill top are built by different generations of Jains over a period of 900 years. Some of the other major temples are that of Kumarpal, Vimalshah and Sampriti Raja.Every Jain aspires to climb the hill up to the temples at least once in his lifetime due to its sanctity. The Jains also believe that many have attained salvation from this hill.

Tredd Furia is a character in Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV and a member of the eponymous Kingsglaive. Having gone through extensive training, he is now a top-class soldier.
Tredd is a young man with brown hair, light brown skin, and brown eyes. He wears the black uniform typical of his fellow Glaives.
Tredd is arrogant, loud, and traitorous. He views himself and his comrades as little more than "rats."
Like his fellow Glaives, Tredd is able to wield the Lucian royal family's magic. He uses it to warp from place to place, as well as to cast Fire and Thunder spells.
Don't you get it? We're nothing to them. Rats, snuck in from behind the Wall. Sure, they had use for us when they realized we could work their magic, so they handpicked us out from all the other rats out there and just let us nibble away at His Royal Majesty's precious power. But as soon as this war's all over, it's back to the sewers for all of us.
Alongside his fellow Glaives, Tredd combats the combined forces of Niflheim and Tenebrae on the outskirts of Lucis. He returns to Insomnia when the enemy unexpectedly retreats. Two days later, Tredd openly discredits King Regis when he learns the monarch has agreed to sign a peace treaty with Iedolas Aldercapt, Niflheim's emperor. This puts him at odds with Nyx Ulric.
After the murder of Crowe Altius and subsequent return of her body to the crown city, Tredd, Sonitus Bellum, and Axis Arra silently watch as Nyx and Libertus Ostium discuss their deceased comrade. On the day of the treaty signing, the three betray the rest of the Kingsglaive while on a mission to rescue the kidnapped princess of Tenebrae, Lunafreya Nox Fleuret, from aboard a Niflheim airship.
During Insomnia's fall, Tredd teams up with Sonitus and Axis to attack Nyx and Lunafreya from aboard a Niflheim gunship. The traitorous trio capitalizes on Nyx's inability to use magic, but it is unable to kill its target due to the intervention of Petra Fortis. A short time later, Libertus happens upon the burning remains of Petra's truck, as well as the corpses of Tredd and his cohorts.
Creation and developmentEdit
The likeness of Mehran Armando is used to portray Tredd. David Nutley serves as the character's motion capture artist.
In the Japanese version of Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV, Tredd is voiced by Fuminori Komatsu. In the film's English version, he is voiced by Max Mittelman.
