LAKE CHARLES, La. (AP) - The State Bond Commission has approved the sale of $10 million in hospital revenue bonds to pay for expansion and remodeling at Lake Charles Memorial Hospital.

State Treasurer John Kennedy told The American Press (http://bit.ly/1rqvJVg) the money will pay for work on the hospitals emergency room and an intensive care unit.

The Southwest Louisiana Hospital Association is the entity borrowing the money. The bonds will be paid off using revenue from the hospital.

Hospital CEO Larry Graham said the expansion is necessary to prepare for an expected influx of workers and their families tied to the more than $70 billion in industrial projects planned or under construction in southwest Louisiana.

We are already seeing some of the early arrivals from the growth, he said.

The public-private partnership between Memorial and W.O. Moss Regional Medical Center that was created last year is another reason the expansion is needed. Since July 2013, Graham said emergency room visits have increased by 70 percent.

We were already the busiest emergency room in town, and its gotten bigger, he said.

Graham said the project should be finished by the end of the year.

LAS CRUCES >> The sound of dogs barking could be heard as the orange ribbon spanning across the doors of the new Small Breed Room was cut during ribbon-cutting ceremony Thursday at the Animal Service Center of the Mesilla Valley, 3551 Bataan Memorial West.

The newly remodeled room, formerly known as the puppy room, is about a $200,000 project, started about three months ago to provide a clean environment for small breed dogs and to help make the dogs more accessible and presentable to visitors looking to adopt.

The new room now expands into what was once the shelter entrance and more cages have been added to allow the dogs to be seen at eye level.

"So many people call us the pound and we're not a pound," Dr. Beth Vesco-Mock, ASCMV executive director said. "We work very hard on adopting and getting animals out to the community and we want to promote pet ownership responsibility and this really helps the image (of the shelter) and it's also much better for the animals ... and it's much easier for the staff to do proper cleaning."

The former room consisted of smaller pens situated on the floor, forcing the smaller dogs to stand on their hind feet just to see out and get attention.

"It was extremely stressful, extremely hard to clean, there was no drainage in each pen and it looked horrible," Vesco-Mock said.

GAINESVILLE, Fla. (AP) - Florida coach Will Muschamp trudged across the field and into the locker room amid a scattering of boos Saturday night.

There were still a couple "Fire Muschamp" chants in the distance, too.

Those could become reality soon, maybe in the next few days.

Marcus Murphy scored three touchdowns, including two on special teams, and Missouri embarrassed Florida 42-13.

The Tigers (5-2, 2-1 Southeastern Conference) scored on a kickoff return, a punt return, a fumble return and an interception return. They managed just seven first downs and 119 yards, including 20 passing, but won by essentially letting the Gators self-destruct in nearly every way imaginable.

And they did.

The Gators (3-3, 2-3) turned the ball over six times and lost at home for the second time in eight days, fueling speculation that Muschamp has coached his final game in Gainesville. The "Fire Muschamp" chants broke out in third quarter and could be heard throughout an emptying Florida Field.

"I'm really worried about this football team right now," Muschamp said when asked about his job security. "That's really what I'm worried about. I'm not getting concerned about things I don't have any control over, other than this team. I think that's the most important thing right now."

The Gators have dropped 12 of their last 19 games and trail the division-leading Bulldogs by two games with three remaining.

Q: Im a taller man, and I would like to have my bathroom vanity countertop a little higher than normal for extra comfort.

Do I have to find someone to custom build my vanity base or build a platform on the floor? Any easier ideas are welcome!

A: In most cases, floor-mounted bathroom vanity bases are prebuilt to standard heights. However, if youre installing a wall-hung bathroom sink without a base cabinet, usually you can make plans to raise the sink up a few inches higher if needed.

If you prefer the full vanity base cabinet, you should be able to order one that is made to be mounted on the wall at any level.

This version has several features that a floor-mounted vanity does not, including extra foot room under the unit and a sleek-looking design. You will still have plenty of storage, and can choose from a range of vanity sink tops.

If you follow your local building codes, a wall-hung vanity can take your bathroom remodeling plans to a whole new level.

All spaces present design challenges, but as the living room is where you probably spend the most time (and certainly the one guests experience the most of), designing a small one can be especially tricky. How do you strike a balance between making the room feel as spacious as possible while also squeezing in extra seating? What furniture should you choose, and where do you put it? Here are 15 design tips for making the most of your space, plus 10 specific furniture layout ideas for small living rooms. Lets get started.

How to get your furniture arrangement right

1. Use mirrors and wallpaper. A small living room, especially if its short on windows, can feel a bit boxed in. Create a focal point, boost light and add depth all at once by papering a wall and hanging a mirror on top. If you can position the mirror across from a window, all the better the mirror will reflect the view outside, giving the impression of an extra window.

The layout: Center the love seat on the papered wall, flanked by a pair of matching side tables and lamps. A large woven ottoman can work as a coffee table or an extra seat. If theres room, you could work in an extra (small-scale) chair or two across from the love seat in this arrangement. Seats: two to four.

2. Add hidden storage. Pick furniture with built-in storage to limit clutter. A trunk or storage ottoman as a coffee table works well. Along the perimeter of the room, try a small chest of drawers or a small credenza instead of a console table to boost storage options.

3. Choose small-scale furniture. There is more to living room furniture than full-size sofas and bulky armchairs. Antiques shops are a great place to look for small-scale furniture, because the average room size was typically quite small until the last half century or so. Look for small settees, love seats and chairs that can work for your space.

The layout: The love seat is centered in front of the bay window, with petite tables on either side. A pair of Louis XVI armchairs sit opposite the sofa, with a trunk as a coffee table in between. An antique recamier is positioned on the wall diagonally across from the sofa, with a slim console table opposite it. Seats: six.

Find a brand new sofa or sectional for your space

4. Look up. If your small living room is blessed with high ceilings, take full advantage of that extra space! While vertical space doesnt help with squeezing in an extra seat, drawing the eye upward does help give the impression that your room is far larger and grander that it would otherwise seem. Fill the vertical space with an eclectic art gallery.

A new flea market with room for more than 600 vendors is slated to open Nov. 15 in Margate.

Coconuts Flea Market will open for business at the former Saveology Plaza along Coconut Creek Parkway.

Sid Moskin, a commercial real estate developer, said he's investing upward of $1 million remodeling the plaza that used to house Saveology, a company providing deals on shopping, dining and other goods and services.

"It's the ideal facility, ideal parking situation and the timing is right because we are opening right at the beginning of season," said Moskin, who along with his wife, Karen, will be managing the flea market.

Coconuts Flea Market will be on 20 acres of land and offer more than 1,300 parking spots, Moskin said.

About 10 food trucks are also scheduled to be on site to serve hungry shoppers, he said. The flea market will open Wednesday through Sunday and host vendors selling new and used goods such as jewelry, shoes and luggage.

Coconuts Flea Market will rent tables, kiosks and other spaces to merchants on a daily, weekly and monthly basis, Moskin said. Rates range from $20 to $40, depending on space.

"They can sell anything as long as it's legal," Moskin said.

Coconuts Flea Market will be at 5259 Coconut Creek Parkway.
