Ever since Barrafina opened in 2007 it has been a firm favourite amongst the foodie pack, one of the best, buzziest places in London's Soho to grab a bite to eat. So when we heard the news that a Covent Garden branch was opening up (a stones throw from Grazia HQ), we were more than a little happy. Deputy Picture Editor Marc Morgan volunteered (or rather, nearly bit our hands off) to go try it out. Here's what he thought….
'The no reservations policy currently rampaging through London has its pros and cons, its fans and its detractors. Me, I like it – avoid the obvious peak times and you can walk straight to a prime seat. My new favourite is Barrafina on Adelaide Street, behind St. Martins on the Field. Owned by brothers Sam and Eddie Hart, it's the sister restaurant to the renowned Soho branch, and aims to serve classic and contemporary tapas using the best seasonal ingredients.
Airy and bright with giant picture windows, the sun was blazing in when I visited, but I can imagine loving sitting there scoffing away whilst the rain pelted down and gales blew. It's the kind of place to pop in for half an hour, or while away an entire afternoon sitting on stools by the marble counter watching the open kitchen beaver away rustling up an array of splendid dishes.
Jose Etura is maître d, and has an amazing team (big hola to Tabata!) ready to inform and recommend, whilst also advising the odd break and glass of water – all in a good cause, as no need to overdo it too quickly and greedily (note to self!) A savoury glass of Manzanilla to start was delicious with the nutty Jamon Iberico de Bellota and some yummy olives with quail eggs, while we perused the menu. Next we tried various specials – tempura prawn with fermented wild black garlic alioli in a cute shot glass; tender razor clams and juicy deep water mussels with an unexpected vinegary kick – washed down with 2 different recommendations from the white wine offer – special nod to The Flower and The Bee 2012.
A little break, then on to Chiperones – tiny baby squid in panko crumbs; Queen Scallop Ceviche, and a huge stuffed courgette flower overflowing with honey and melting cheese. I resisted the call of Ortiguillas – sea anemone – that's a treat for next time. Then time for some meat – Frit Mallorcain was a spicy mix of lamb liver and kidney, with prawns and pinenuts, with which we ordered yellow chicory with Don Bocarte anchovies and Salmorejo (a type of gazpacho). Jose suggested we have some bread to mop up. I did think enough carbs already, but it would have a criminal waste to miss out on those sauces. We drank a powerful red - Karma de Drac 2011 with this – who doesn't want good Karma?
To be honest, after this feast, we had no room for desserts. I did succumb to the Spanish cheese selection, ostensibly to finish my red, but was very easily talked into a glass of Alameda, a nutty semi sweet sherry – I now cannot imagine cheese without it. Note to self, must search now for stockists!!
After that feast, it was definitely time for a siesta….all in all, hasta pronto Barrafina!'

Blogger Shmitten Kitten asked the question, "What's the REAL reason you dumped him?" We'd love to pretend like it was always for noble reasons — like our lives were headed in different directions, there was some fundamental chemistry missing, or he didn't want to have kids. Sometimes those were the real reasons. But then sometimes … there were, um, other reasons that we were too kind to say out loud. After the jump, some harder-to-admit reasons we really broke up with him. God forgive us. Share yours in the comments. Keep reading »

A dynamically balanced suction relief is provided for a hydrotherapy tub or spa in which a controlled amount of water under pressure is supplied from the water pump to an air inlet duct to maintain a column of water in the air duct under normal conditions.
1. A dynamically balanced suction line relief for tubs, spas and pools comprising, a water circulation line having a water pump therein and including a suction line communicating between a water outlet in the tub and the pump and the water pressure line between the pump and a water inlet in the tub,
an air inlet duct communicating with the suction line and extending upwardly therefrom and opening to the atmosphere at its upper end, said duct holding a column of water therein during normal operation while the tub is filled with water and the water outlet of the tub is unobstructed,
a water make-up means operatively associated with the air inlet duct for forcing make-up water thereinto under pressure from the water circulation line to maintain the column of water therein until the outlet becomes obstructed whereupon the column of water is drawn down and air enters the suction line thereby causing the pump to cavitate relieving the suction.
2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the water make up means comprises a water pipe connection between the pressure line and the air inlet duct.
3. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein a metering oriface is provided in the water make-up pipe.
4. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the water make up means comprises a scoop connected to the lower end of the air inlet duct and communicating between the air inlet duct and the interior of the water suction line and said scoop has a mouth facing in an upstream direction to receive a portion of the water flowing toward it to thereby maintain a column of water within the air inlet duct even when the pressure within the suction line is substantially below atmospheric pressure.
5. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein the water outlet comprises the hydrotherapy jet having an air inlet means,
a valve communicates with the jet to control the flow of air thereto from the atmosphere and the water make up means associated with the air inlet duct maintains the water level therein in a state of dynamic balance in spite of the change of the flow rate through the hydrotherapy jet due to the opening and closing of the air control valve.
6. A dynamically balanced hydrotherapy system including a suction relief for preventing excessive suction comprising,
a hydrotherapy drain-and-fill tub adapted to hold a quantity of water for hydrotherapy and bathing purposes,
said tub having a water outlet and a hydrotherapy jet,
water circulation line connected between the water outlet and the hydrotherapy jet,
said water circulation line including a pump,
said line including a suction line between the water outlet and the pump and a pressure line between the pump and the hydrotherapy jet,

a normally open check valve at the upper end of the air inlet duct to prevent water from flowing out the top thereof while allowing air to enter the check valve,
a water make-up means dynamically balancing the water pressure in the air inlet duct to maintain a column of water therein when the water outlet is unobstructed, said water make-up means being connected to the air inlet duct for introducing water under pressure thereinto from the water circulation line.
7. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein the water make-up means comprises a pipe connected between the water pressure line and the air inlet duct for supplying water to enter the air inlet duct.
8. The apparatus of claim 6 wherein the water make-up means comprises a scoop having an open mouth facing upstream at the end of the air inlet duct to maintain the level of water in the air inlet duct due to the ram effect of the water flowing through the suction line against the open mouth of the scoop.
The present invention relates to spas and hydrotherapy tubs and more particularly to an apparatus for preventing excessive suction when the tub outlet becomes obstructed.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,115,878 describes a method for admitting air into the water outlet, i.e., suction line of a spa, to prevent excessive suction when the outlet becomes blocked. The patented system may operate satisfactorily in a hot tub or spa which is relatively deep, e.g., filled with water to a depth of 29-48 inches. However, the present invention is concerned primarily with drain-and-fill tubs which are filled to an average depth of only about 15-17 inches. When an attempt is made to use the patented system in a drain-and-fill tub of the kind with which the present invention is concerned, the system has a tendency to become unstable, for example, water bounces up and down in the vent tube under dynamic conditions of operation. When this happens air is sucked into the pump. This, of course, interferes with the proper operation of the pump because of the air passing through it.
In view of these and other deficiencies of the prior art, it is the primary object of the invention to provide a dynamically balanced system for preventing dangerous and excessive suction at the suction fitting in the spa, tub, or pool by allowing air to enter the pump when the suction fitting is plugged but at the same time preventing air from entering the pump when the suction fitting is not plugged.
It is important to provide an adequate supply of air when the suction fitting does become plugged so, for example, a person will not be injured if one's hand or other part of the body covers the suction outlet of the tub. Another object is to achieve these results without use of moving parts such as mechanically or electrically operated valves and accompanying electrical circuitry such as a vacuum switch. Still, another object is to provide a dynamic balance that will automatically slow down the flow of water whenever a person using the tub obstructs the suction fitting but which at other times pumps water through the outlet at or near maximum efficiency. A further object is to provide an automatic method of dynamic control which is self-regulating so that a greater compensating effect is provided when the output of the pump is increased if a longer pump is used. Yet another more specific object of the invention to provide a relief system as described which operates quickly and gently and in addition begins to function gradually as the object is brought into proximity with the suction fitting so that a person is not hurt by placing a hand over the suction fitting.
It has also been previously proposed to employ a vacuum operated electrical switch to turn off the pump motor when suction becomes excessive. This system is unsatisfactory since it is sensitive to water impurities such as lint or scum and therefore, may fail under dangerous circumstances.
In view of these and other deficiencies in the prior art, the invention will now be described by way of example with reference to the specification and the accompanying figures.
FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing one form of the invention as applied to a drain-and-fill tub having a single inlet on suction fitting and a single outlet.
FIG. 2 is another embodiment of the invention as applied to a drain-and-fill tub with a single suction fitting which feeds through a pump to a pair of hydrotherapy jets.
FIG. 3 is the perspective view of the water outlet, i.e. suction line and associated components.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view of the suction line and air inlet duct in accordance with another embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 5 is a partial horizontal sectional view taken on line 5--5 of FIG. 4.
The present invention provides a suction relief for a tub, spa, or pool having a hydrotherapy system with a water inlet and a water outlet connected to each other by means of a water circulation line in which a power operated pump is provided. An air inlet duct is connected on the inlet side of the pump and is open to the atmosphere at its upper end for relieving suction if the tub outlet is obstructed. A water-up make means is associated with the air duct to force make up water thereinto under pressure from the water circulation line. The water make-up means can comprise a pipe connecting the pump outlet to the air inlet duct or in the alternative it can comprise a scoop at the lower end of the near inlet duct directed upstream to collect a portion of the water flowing past it to thereby prevent the water from being withdrawn from the air inlet duct under normal conditions.
Shown in FIG. 1 is a drain-and-fill tub 10 having a rim 12 sidewall 14 and bottom wall 16. While the invention can be applied to any tub, spa, or pool, it is especially useful in connection with a tub of the kind which is drained and refilled each time it is used. On one side of the tub is a water inlet 18 such as a hydrotherapy jet and on the other side is a water outlet 20. The water inlet and outlet are connected together by means of the water circulation line 22 which includes a pressure line 22a and a suction line 22b on opposite sides of a water circulation pump P which is driven during operation by means of a motor M.
Connected to the water inlet or suction line 22b is a air inlet duct 24 having an upper normally open inlet opening 26 which communicates with the atmosphere allowing air to enter the system at times as will be described below. A check valve 28 is provided at the upper end of the air inlet duct which allows air to enter but prevents water from escaping in the event water rises to the level of the check valve. The check valve 28 can comprise a floating ball check valve such as a lightweight hollow ball that will move to a seated position sealing the duct in the event it is floated upwardly by the column of water 30 in the duct 24.
Connected between the pressure line 22a and the duct 24 is a make up water pipe 32 which supplies a small amount of water at all times to the air duct 24. If desired, the pipe 32 can be provided with a metering oriface 34 to assure a relatively constant flow of water to the air duct 24 regardless of the pressure within line 22a. The metering oriface 34 is not essential. The same effect can be obtained by using a 3 foot long plastic water make-up pipe 32 of small diameter, for example an I.D. of 3/4 inches.
During operation, with the pump P drawing water through the suction line 22b from the suction fitting 20 and forcing it through the pressure line 22a through the hydrotherapy jet 18, a portion of the water under pressure in line 22a will be forced toward the right in pipe 32 into the air inlet duct 30 thereby maintaining water level 30 therein substantially equal to the water 40 in tub 10. However when the outlet 20 becomes plugged, the water level 30 will drop in the duct 24 allowing air to enter the line 22b causing the pump to cavitate thereby preventing excessive suction at the water outlet 20. When the outlet 20 is not obstructed, the flow of water through pipe 32 will keep the water level 30 in duct 24 high enough so that no air enters the pump P.
Refer now to FIG. 2 which illustrates a similar drain-and-fill tub 10 having a similar water circulation system including the water circulation line 22 composed of a pressure line 22a, a portion of which is connected to a hydrotherapy jet 23 and another portion of which is connected to hydrotherapy jet 25. A water suction line 22b is connected to water outlet 20 of the tub 10. As described above the pump P is operated by a motor M.
Corresponding parts in this embodiment are similar to those already described in FIG. 1. In this case, air inlet lines 27 and 29, respectively are connected to the hydrotherapy jets 23 and 25 to allow water to enter the jets under normal operating circumstances. The amount of water entering can be controlled by the valve V at the upper end of each of the air lines 27 and 29 and each of the valves V is operated by means of a handle 31 within the tub to control the amount of air in each water jet and consequently the amount of jet pressure sensed by the user. As in the embodiment of FIG. 1, the make-up water pipe 32 is connected between the pressure line 22aand the air inlet duct 24. The pipe 32 can be thought of as compensation pipe for normally maintaining a column of water in the air pipe 24. It thus functions as a make up means associated with the air inlet duct 24 for introducing water thereinto under pressure from the water circulation line 22.
In FIG. 3 which illustrates a typical application of the invention, the water outlet 20 comprises a water outlet fitting which is connected to the wall 14 of the tub 10 by means of a threaded flange 20a. The suction line 22b is composed of pipe sections 40 and 42 connected together by an elbow 44. Pipe 24 communicates with pipe 42 at 45 which is composed of a horizontal section of pipe connected to the upright portion of the air inlet duct 24 by means of an elbow 46. The water make up pipe 32 is connected to the air inlet duct 24 by means of a T fitting 48.
Turn now to FIGS. 4 and 5 which illustrate another embodiment of the invention.
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 the water make-up pipe 32 is not used. However, the same numbers refer to corresponding parts in FIGS. 1-3. Instead of water make up pipe 32, the air inlet duct 24 is provided with a scoop 50 at its lower end which communicates with the interior of the water suction line 22b. It can be seen that the scoop 50 has an opening 51 facing upstream direction thereby gathering a portion of the water flowing through the pressure pipe 22b to maintain the water level 30 in the air inlet duct 24. The scoop 50 thus functions as a water make up means associated with air inlet duct 24 for forcing make-up water thereinto under pressure from the water circulation line 22. In operation under normal circumstances the rapid flow of water through the water circulation line 22 will be captured in part by the mouth of the scoop 50 which faces upstream preventing a draw down on the water column shown in the air inlet duct 24. However, when the water inlet 20 is obstructed, the reduced pressure in the suction line 22b will draw air into the air inlet duct 24 causing the water level 30 to drop allowing air to enter the system interferring with the operation of the pump and automatically reducing the pressure differential across the water inlet 20 as desired.
The size of various components should be adjusted to provide the best performance as will be apparent to those skilled in the art. For example if the pipe 32 is too large in diameter, too much water may be introduced into duct 24. Moreover, its effectiveness will depend upon the length of the pipe 32 and other factors such as how many bends there are in the water circulation line 22. In a typical situation with a pump P operated by a 3/4 horsepower motor, a water make-up pipe 24 eighteen inches long will be effective if its I.D. is 1/4 inch and the suction line 22b has an I.D. of 2 inches and the pressure line 22a has an I.D. of 11/2 inches. The check valve 28 will function effectively to prevent water from flowing out on to the floor but allows air to enter as required.
Concerning the embodiment of FIG. 2 it should be explained that opening the valve V will allow more air to enter the stream ejected from the jet and this in turn will reduce the flow of water through the suction fitting 20 causing the water level to rise in air duct 24. However the level will not rise too high since the pressure will also be lower in pressure line 22a thereby automatically lowering the volume of water delivered through line 32 to the air duct and in this way providing dynamically balanced control. Thus the air control valves V together with the level of water in the tub 10 influence the water level in the air duct 24 so that an increase of say 12 inches in the water level of the tub will be compensated for by water entering through line 32 to provide a small increase of an inch or two in the level 30 in duct 24 thereby automatically maintaining the water level 30 in the pipe 24 in a dynamically balanced relatively constant state.
The scoop 50 in the FIGS. 4 and 5 is particularly effective if place where a 90 degree elbow is located in the suction line 22b. This is believed due to the greater pressure resulting from the centrifugal force which causes the water on the outside of the bend to travel faster thereby entering the scoop 50 with greater energy.
Many variations of the present invention within the scope of the appended claims will be apparent to those skilled in the art once the principles described therein are understood.

Prepping Powder Rooms For Guests
With the holiday season just around the corner and festive invitations in full swing, it's the perfect time to spruce-up the one room everyone, from your mother-in-law to your well-meaning neighbour, is sure to pay a visit: the powder room. A few pretty-yet-practical fix-ups will have your guests feeling right at home.
1. Put away the personal stuff. Your guests don't need to see your sensitive toothpaste or discover your penchant for eye creams. When you're expecting company, swap out your personal hygiene products in favour of a small vase of fresh flowers or a seasonally-scented candle, like Fraser Fir.
2. Have spare supplies handy. While you're in the kitchen plating dinner or pouring the bubbly, the last thing guests want to do is bug you about that empty roll of toilet paper. Rather than having to check-in on your powder room's supply levels, keep fresh hand towels in a visible location and tuck spare toilet paper in a place that's obvious, but not too out in the open.
3. Consider a tray on your bathroom counter. Hand lotion, tissue and other toiletries are all items that guests may need during a party. If you want to take this a step further, including a small container of packaged mints will give guests the impression that you've thought of everything, including their needs.

Playing With Pattern
If you're looking to make a bold statement, there's an easier way to do it than mixing patterns. While solid colour combinations are always a sensible choice (and a lot easier to get right), a few key tips can help you achieve the patterned space of your dreams.
1. Experiment with scale. To achieve a well-thought-out look, pick patterns of different sizes. Using small and large scale patterns adds variety and helps ensure your overall look feels curated, not cookie-cutter.
2. Don't be afraid to mix styles. Just make sure they relate to the space. Each pattern should have a colourway that works with the other elements in the room. In this example, the tones and styles all have a 1920s English vibe, giving the room an aura of grandeur.
3. Begin with the biggest element. To be sure you get the right mix, start with the largest element in the space and choose your first fabric pattern there. From there, layer in patterns on smaller, less dominant pieces. In this living room, choosing the patterned rug first would be a good starting point.

Large-Scale Lighting
When it comes to home decor, it can be tough to know which trends are fleeting and which have staying power, but there's one we know is well worth the investment: statement lighting. Replacing your existing fixtures with standout pendants can provide a lot of bang for your decor bucks, and though they come in all shapes and sizes, we think the bigger the better. If you're still on the fence about supersizing your lighting, here's why we're totally on board with the trend.
1. They instantly modernize a space. Whether your style is cool contemporary or classic and traditional, adding oversized pendants is an easy way to push the boundaries. And they come in a range of styles, so you can add some fresh tension without compromising your aesthetic. Just think of it as clicking the refresh button.
2. They're a high-impact focal point. Every room should make a statement, and what better way to set the tone than with lighting? Oversized pendant lights provide visual weight to anchor a space, while adding a healthy dose of drama.
3. They work in a variety of rooms. Here, a pair of matching pendants finishes off a dining area, but oversized pendants would also work above a kitchen island (though if you have a smaller island, opt for a single pendant.) They can also find a happy home over a bed, or in a living room with a central floor plan.
Bright idea: Installing a dimmer switch gives large pendants a soft glow and allows you to adjust the lighting depending on the mood or occasion.

Showing Off Your Art
Everyone loves a gallery wall, and for good reason: they show off favourite paintings, drawings and prints, adding a hit of personality to otherwise boring walls. Take inspiration from this pretty example in H&H editor-in-chief Suzanne Dimma's Toronto home, where she and her husband, Arriz Hassam, expertly mixed metallic and wooden frames for a sophisticated yet eclectic look. Don't be intimidated by your own assortment of images — a mix of styles looks great, as long as you follow a few simple rules to keep it all tied together.
1. Match shapes, not sizes. A mixed grid of different-sized artworks doesn't have to look messy; in fact, symmetry can detract from your collection's individuality. For a stylish and unique look, choose art of various styles and sizes, but keep the shape of the frames consistent, such as the rectangles shown above.
2. Stagger your frames. You don't need to re-frame each piece of art for a uniform finish. As long as you choose frames in complementary tones and materials, your collection will still feel cohesive. If you do need to buy new frames, go for two or three different styles or colours and stagger them in a subtle pattern across the wall.
3. Watch your spacing. You don't have to measure the exact spacing between artworks as long as the overall look is consistent. Test your spacing by stepping away from the wall to view the gallery as a whole. Two pieces should never hang far enough apart that they look like parts of separate collections; nor should they almost touch. As a general rule of thumb, a space of two to four inches between each frame looks clean and professional.

Refresh Your Kitchen
It doesn't matter how large the party gets, eventually, everyone always winds up in the kitchen — and who can blame them? It's hard to stay away when mouth-watering smells start wafting from the oven! Of course, kitchens aren't just where you go to sample what's cooking; they're hard-working spaces, too, and they tend to show it. Luckily, a few easy pick-me-ups will make your kitchen so pretty, your guests won't even notice the dirty dishes.
1. Repaint your cabinets. Shelves and storage take up major wall space in most kitchens and dated cabinets can set the tone for the whole room. But that doesn't mean you have to pull them out and start again! In fact, a fresh coat of paint is all it takes to create a dramatically different look. It's finicky work, but goes a long way to freshen up your space.
2. Choose new hardware. Swapping old knobs and pulls for newer styles takes no time at all and you'd be surprised by its impact on the room. There are plenty of chic, affordable options to choose from and, if you do plan to repaint your storage, you'll probably want new hardware to match.
3. Update your light fixtures. Lighting makes all the difference when it comes to creating a cosy interior, but kitchens are often outfitted with fluorescent or other harsh lights that feel far from welcoming. While high visibility is a must for cooking, a couple of added sconces can provide softer light for when the precision work is over. Or, choose a light fixture with a dimmer, which lets you transition from workspace to lounge atmosphere.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
Munford Middle School is a wonderful school with the BEST teachers in the county! This summer teachers came together at Shocco Springs to collaborate concerning the culture of our school. All teachers participated in this unpaid three day learning. I think that says a lot about how much we care about our students. We are all excited to begin the 2013-2014 school year and ready to help our students to be "STRONG" by implementing activities to engage our students to be self motivated team players who take ownership of their learning, set goals for improvement, and never give up! Teachers have been at the school working diligently to make their classrooms inviting environments. As the Instructional Partner, I am so proud of the efforts of our staff members and can't wait to see the growth of our students as we begin this school year!
Great school... the teachers are the best part of the school and the facility is top notch
It is the worst school I have ever dealt with even when I was in school, even my on parent's in their fifty's have become so upset with this so called principal it is pathetic ! I would not send a dog to leave in her care, call the boe and the take her side she is a big bully that is all she is!!!!!!!!

Cameroon raises QoS issues
GOVERNMENT| May 29, 2012, 3:23 p.m.
Cameroon's telecoms regulator, Agence de Regulation des Telecommunications (ART), has criticized MTN and Orange for quality of service issues.
The regulator closely monitors quality of service in the country, and last year imposed sanctions against six local operators. In 2010, 20 companies operating in the telecoms space were fined.
In a report this week, ART said despite the fact that MTN and Orange had undertaken last year to improve service quality, the regulator was still receiving complaints aboutpoor coverage and dropped calls.

as seen on gnome-list, what's new includes "multiple documents interface, with copy/paste and drag'n'drop; multiple selections (useful with LyX citation for example); all the supported formats (bibtex, medline, ovid, refer) can now be read and written; better date handling; bug fixes." for more see the pybliographer download page at gnome.org. if you haven't tried this yet give it a shot; i might finally get rid of endnote + msword (and there was much rejoicing). :)

as seen at freshmeat: "A minor API change for document access, a fix for a bug causing DA file reading to fail, various other bugfixes, extended test suite, and internal code reorganisation." for more see open.muscat.com.
news from Frederic, via www.gnome.org/pybliographer: "we are now at 0.9.11, aka 1.0pre2. Improved bibtex author formatting and fixed compilation problems with i18n support. I'll be on vacation two weeks, and plan to release 1.0 when I come back, depending on the number of bug reports I'll find in my mailbox ;-)"

The New York Knicks looked lost at times while Carmelo Anthony recovered from an injured knee. The knee is still not 100 percent, but he returned to the court last night and helped the Knicks to a victory over the Orlando Magic.
The Knicks beat the Magic 106-94 thanks in part to Anthony's 21 points. In his first game back, Anthony showed he was ready to go. Shortly after the game started, Anthony nailed a 3-pointer to prove he was ready and willing to score. From there, the Knicks helped out all around Anthony for a big win.
Anthony had missed the team's last three games and six out of the team's last eight overall due to the knee injury. He had the knee drained, but he had to wait for the swelling and soreness to subside before getting back on the court. Anthony and the Knicks hope he will be healthy the rest of the way through to the playoffs.
New York is currently third in the Eastern Conference at 40-26. They all but have a playoff spot locked up. Anthony has been a big part of that. He is averaging 27.4 points and 6.2 assists per game this season.

We welcome your feedback on our newsletter. Feel free to contact you would like to see. me at 305-536-0370 or by e-mail at email@example.com Coordinating Florida's Fight against PIP Fraud By Director John Askins PIP Fraud is a problem in Florida, and accounts for more than 40% of the referrals made to the Division of Insurance Fraud. A June 2010 report by NICB listed four Florida cities in the top ten nationally for staged accidents: Tampa, Miami, Orlando and Hialeah. The Tampa-Orlando corridor is the current hot spot for this type of fraud, edging ahead of Miami-Hialeah in explosive fashion. The Division reorganized in 2009, setting up dedicated squads to investigate PIP cases in Broward, Palm Beach, Orlando, Tampa and Ft. Myers. A statewide initiative, led by Captain Steve Smith, was established this year to coordinate the efforts to fight PIP fraud by expanding on the success realized by the dedicated squads previously established in Miami. Our statewide initiative includes ensuring the resources get to the areas in need; establishing better coordination between DIF and other law enforcement agencies; providing more detailed information to the public and media on successful arrests and prosecutions; and educating and informing the communities targeted by this crime. Please see Coordinating on page 2 Page 2 – July 2010 The PIP Source Coordinating - from page 1 We also hosted two strategic planning meetings with law enforcement and industry leaders to find solutions to the growing problem. An important partner in our success is the National Insurance Crime "Of course, both DIF Bureau (NICB), and they are answering the challenge in Central Florida and NICB owe a great with the creation of a new Fraud Task Force. It will be located in Tampa, deal of gratitude to the with the goal of copying the achievements of the South Florida Medical dedicated SIU Fraud Task Force that began in 2002. Of course, both DIF and NICB owe investigators a great deal of gratitude to the dedicated SIU investigators throughout the throughout the State." State. In 2003, DIF initiated a dedicated prosecutor's program with Miami-Dade County State Attorney Katherine Fernandez-Rundle and the Florida Automobile Joint Underwriter's Association (FAJUA), and we continue to expand the program that now boasts nine dedicated prosecutor positions statewide, in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, Hillsborough and Duval counties, although some positions are currently vacant. PIP Fraud affects each and every Floridian, mostly through higher premiums paid for auto insurance. Unfortunately, many of the immigrants that come to live and work in Florida are targeted by unscrupulous clinic owners and thugs who recruit them into the illegal activity. We are Florida Insurance Fraud Education inundated daily with commercials screaming how much money you can Committee. make from an accident. The truth is those ads are misleading; the people making the lion's share of the money are the clinic owners and lawyers, who take advantage of persons who don't know enough about the laws in Florida, or the consequences of going along for the ride. When PIP fraud is involved, there is no free ride. Dedicated Prosecutors By Captain Steven Smith We hope to provide some helpful information about the dedicated prosecutors in this newsletter several times a year. Currently, there are six dedicated insurance fraud prosecutors throughout Florida. Thomas Sadler, who had been with the Miami-Dade SAO dedicated unit since 2007, left and has been replaced by Thomas Poole. Rhonda King was replaced in the Hillsborough SAO dedicated position by Matthew Gale. Alex Sevak, the dedicated workers' compensation fraud (W/C) prosecutor in Miami-Dade, is leaving at the end of this month. Still working in the dedication positions are – Mike McQuaide in Miami- Dade; Joseph Licandro in Duval; Scott Ernest in Broward; and Ryan Kelley in Palm Beach. There are currently two vacant positions in Miami and one in Tampa. It is our goal to continue to add dedicated prosecutors throughout the state, including vital areas like Ft. Myers. The PIP Source Page 3 Statewide PIP Arrests – June 2010 Each issue will provide a list of PIP arrests made by the offices throughout the State. Along with each defendant's name and age, we will include: the type of scheme involved; the fraud dollar amount; clinic name(s); victim insurance company name(s); and the arresting office. If you need additional details on any of these arrests, please contact Capt Smith.

40 arrested in multi-agency crime sweep in Columbia
Updated On: Aug 05 2013 07:01:07 PM CDT
The Columbia Police Department announced Monday that 40 people were arrested during a three-day crime sweep.
Between August 1 and 3, police conducted more than 200 traffic stops, 60 check subjects and arrested dozens of people. Authorities say they used call data and intelligence-gathering efforts as part of the operation.
The 40 arrests included traffic offenses, drug offenses and numerous arrests for outstanding warrants.
During the sweep, officers arrested Domionte S. Cheatum, 20, of Columbia for the murder of Anthony Unger on June 23 in the Conley Road shopping center parking lot.
U.S. Marshals arrested Chad L. Thomas, 23, of Columbia in Birmingham, Ala. for first-degree burglary, second-degree assault and second-degree property damage.
Several others were arrested for various charges including distribution of heroin or cocaine; unlawful use of a weapon; and methamphetamine distribution in a Kingdom City, Mo. hotel.
Columbia police worked in cooperation with the Boone County Sheriff's Department, the University of Missouri Police Department, Missouri State Highway Patrol and the U.S. Marshals Service. About 40 officers and four K-9 units participated in the sweep.

[UPDATE 11-01-2012] Laboratory results from samples of two additional recalled NECC products – preservative free betamethasone and cardioplegia solution - have tested positive for bacterial contamination. FDA and CDC laboratories have identified bacteria present in three separate lots (batches) of NECC-supplied preservative-free betamethasone, with each lot producing different culture results, and in a single lot of NECC cardioplegia solution. These results and the finding of fungal contamination of methylprednisolone acetate reinforce the FDA's concern about the lack of sterility in products produced at NECC's compounding facility and serve to underscore that hospitals, clinics, and health care providers should not use any NECC-supplied products.
You can obtain information about the outbreak by calling the FDA's Division of Drug Information line at 855-543-DRUG (3784) or send an email to email@example.com.

Can Buildings Help Regulate the Power Grid and Integrate Renewable Energy?
Grid operators may have a new ally in their efforts to integrate renewables and regulate the frequency of the grid: buildings. Variable-speed drives used to run heating and cooling systems can be modulated in response to signals from grid operators, helping keep the frequency of electricity flowing across the grid.[read more]
Are Rebound Effects a Problem for Energy Efficiency?
The New York Times got the headline wrong in "The Problem With Energy Efficiency." Rebound effects are only 'problem' for energy efficiency if you believe efficiency's unalloyed goal is to cut energy consumption. But that is hardly the case.[read more]
The Future of Energy: Will 'Cheap as Dirt' Batteries Transform the Grid?
What if batteries were as cheap as dirt? In a new video produced by investment advisors Alger, Donald Sadoway explains how truly cheap, scalable energy storage could change the way the electric grid has worked for the last one-hundred-and-fifty years.[read more]
How Does the People's Climate March Stack Up Against the Largest Protest Rallies in U.S. History?
Over 2,800 rallies were held Sunday in a worldwide call for action to confront climate change with an estimated 311,000 joining the "People's Climate March" in New York City. So how does this "largest ever climate rally" compare to some of America's most famous mass protests?[read more]
Should Electricity Distribution Utilities Build, Own, and Operate Microgrids For Their Customers?
Rather than view microgrids as new competitors to traditional electricity distribution utilities, perhaps these local networks of distributed generators, smart electricity loads, and energy storage devices should be seen as a new business opportunity.[read more]
Are Carbon Capture and Storage and Biomass Indispensable in the Fight Against Climate Change?
According to an international effort to comparing 18 models of the global energy-climate-economic system, efforts to mitigate climate change may depend on two technologies: the ability to capture carbon from power plants and industrial facilities and store it in geological formations and to derive energy from biomass.[read more]
Are Reverse Auctions the Key to Reforming Solar Energy Subsidies?
The Australian Capital Territory (ACT) has implemented a novel way to support renewable energy: a reverse feed-in tariff auction. The first reverse auction ran from January 2012 to August 2013 and attracted a highly competitive pool of 49 proposals from 27 different participants.[read more]
Will CO2 Emission Standards Spur Carbon Capture Technology?
CO2 emissions standards for power plants in the United States, United Kingdom and elsewhere may not spur the use and development of carbon capture technology; tighter or looser standards would work better to drive technology adoption.[read more]
When Politics Constraints Carbon Pricing, Part 3: Why Carbon Revenues are Just as Important as "Putting a Price on Carbon"
How carbon revenues are used can impact both the political support for the carbon price itself and dramatically increase the amount of emissions abatement achievable at a given carbon price. It can also improve the overall economic performance of a politically constrained carbon pricing instrument.[read more]
When Politics Constraints Carbon Pricing, Part 2: 6 Tips for Improving Climate Change Policy
The repeal of Australia's carbon tax last week put the political obstacles to establishing a price on carbon in stark relief. Yet the news from Canberra is just the most dramatic manifestation of a set of powerful political economy forces that can fundamentally constrain efforts to put a price on carbon.[read more]
Why Does Politics Keep Getting in the Way of Pricing Carbon? - Part 1
If you ask an economist the best way to combat climate change, you are very likely to get a pretty simple answer: put a price on carbon. Tax fossil fuels in proportion to the amount of carbon they release. Make coal, oil and natural gas more expensive.[read more]
Paying Too Much for Demand Response? DC Circuit Court Throws Out FERC Rule
