We are planning our first trip to Fiji- hopefully flying business class. I understand Air Pacific offers non-stop flights from LAX to NAN (Nadi, Fiji), although, I've heard Air Pacific planes are not so nice, tired and worn down?? Are there any other choices getting to Fiji from the US? (We will actually begin our trip from DFW) If I'm going to be on a 10+ hr. flight I want it to be as pleasant as possible. I'd appreciate your thoughts, and if you have other suggestions. I could really use your help. Thank you.

Best Business class flights from LAX to NAN (Fiji)
Report Abuse
I would discount all of the American Airlines in that equasion which would leave only a few airlines after that. Look at Air Pacific which is a Fijian airline with 40 something % ownership by Qantas. I am not sure if they go into NAN but if you check their website I am sure that it will tell you. The other airlines that go there are not direct flights i.e. Hawaiin Airlines, Air NZ etc.

Qunatas does HNL to NAN I think in the past have done DFW HNL with a couple of nights at Hilton Hawaiian Village each way to break up the journey for way less jet lag worked well.

Thanks all. Looks like Air Pacific is the only option for non-stop LAX - NAN.

Katie there are plenty of good reviews for Air Pacific. I tried the link given by Qvadis but all I got was an error message. However I did look under airlines in fodors and there are plenty of good reports and I have only heard good reports about the airline.
It does seem to be the only one that flies non stop Lax - Nan and I don't think that Qantas ( correct spelling) flies from HNL to NAN anyway.

I fly Air Pacific from Brisbane to Nadi 2 to 4 times a year (only economy class though) and the service is always excellent.

I recently flew from Sydney to Nadi (Sept 2011) in business class on Air Pacific. I have no hesitation recommending them. Yes the plane was not as whizz bang as the brand new planes but there was nothing wrong with it. It was not shabby or old looking. The seats were the old style business/first class however I find them more comfortable than the angled flat beds that are promoted on so many airlines as 'flat beds' when they are not. The service was fabulous, the food was fine (I am not a bit lover of super fancy stuff). I would not hesitate to use them again in business class and I would happily travel 10 hours with them. I'd do it for the non stop flight. (I also posted to this in the other place you asked it)

Tip... if you're staying on Denaru Island, just get a cab to your hotel. Didn't cost much, I think $15 fijian from memory. Our travel agent booked a regular pick up for us and we were off the plane in minutes, through customs and had our bags within 5 minutes. We had to wait half an hour for other passengers to catch up. The business class service on arrival is fabulous. Staff take your bags off the carousel for you and have them ready and waiting.

I've been to Fiji on Air Pacific many times for holidays. I prefer to travel with Air Pacific because they show pride to the customers and really care about you. As you read their On Board magazine, look up and there are the same friendly faces.
We love Fiji - the Fijian people really know how to make your holiday special. Sadly, for them, they're about 75 years behind the rest of the world. They work in Fiji time. It's precious.
I would never pick up a random Taxi in Fiji. Let the Hotel select your Taxi or book a transfer. As MissGreen says "our travel agent booked a regular pick up". The roads are extremely rough with just a bit of tar seal. The cars are older. Not all Taxi's are in good condition. Often they have serious faults. One time our taxi had broken suspension, bad or no brakes; it was frightening as we hit bumps; the car almost rolled over even though the driver had slowed.
Tip - never be impatient in Fiji. They know you're waiting. You'll get the beer, ice cream or whatever at Fiji time. When you arrive home YOU'LL BE WORKING at Fiji time as well.

Route Information and Additional Resources
Culebra Peak, the southernmost peak in the Sangre de Cristo Range, has had restricted public access since 1999. With the recent sale of the Taylor Ranch property, the land management policy for Culebra Peak has changed dramatically. New land owners Bobby Hill and Richard Welch have renamed the property Cielo Vista (or "Heavenly View") Ranch, and they intend to permit public access to Culebra through planned weekend hikes each year.
The owners possess a very strong commitment to ethical land stewardship, and their long-term objective is to strike a balance between recreational access to Culebra and ecological sustainability of the mountain system. Current details for scheduling a hike on the Cielo Vista Ranch are as follows:
Advance reservations are needed, but please do not call the Ranch. To reserve a space, call the office in Glen Rose, TX at 254.897.7872.
As of June 30, 2005, the Ranch has booked 200 climbers, the maximum number allowed. However, they are accepting people onto a waitlist.
The Ranch is open on weekends from June 25 through the end of August, 2005; a minimum of 5 climbers per weekend day is needed. Ranch gate opens at 7 AM. They may open an hour earlier if parties are doing Red Mountain in addition to Culebra.
When inside, visitors must sign the Cielo Vista Ranch waiver and pay the access fee. (They may e-mail you the waiver and a map in advance if they have your e-mail address.) The fee to hike only Culebra remains $100; the fee for both Culebra and Red Mountain is $150.
If you are interested in booking a trip to Culebra or have already confirmed an advanced reservation, additional route information including pictures, maps, and elevation profiles can be found here.
Keep in mind that there are no public lands in Costilla County for overnight camping. A variety of motels can be found in Alamosa and one each in San Luis and Fort Garland. The nearest public land for camping is probably the BLM land around the Como Lake Trailhead (approach to Blanca Peak). There is no water, or other amenities, at that site.

Office 2016 for Mac updates with fullscreen Outlook, other new featuresMicrosoft on Wednesday updated Office 2016 for Mac, adding not just bugfixes but new features for all of the apps in the suite, such as Outlook and PowerPoint.
Outlook users can now exploit the fullscreen mode in OS X Yosemite and El Capitan, making it possible to see multiple items side-by-side. For business users, the update makes it easier to locate a free conference room at a specific time.
Word users can save PDF files to flash drives, while OneNote has gained support for the shapes gallery and the ability to add shapes to pages. Both Excel and PowerPoint have new selection panes that keep track of objects and let users rearrange them at will.
The update, v15.18.0, can be downloaded directly from Microsoft or else installed through Office's AutoUpdate system. People must have an active Office 365 subscription.
Office 2016 first reached the Mac in July, but only attached to Office 365. In September, Microsoft released separate editions that don't require monthly or annual fees, but aren't updated as frequently.

Wärtsilä says that a new icebreaker being built by Arctech Helsinki Shipyard for the Finnish Transport Agency will be powered by Wärtsilä dual-fuel engines capable of operating on both liquefied natural gas (LNG) and low sulphur diesel fuel. When launched in late 2015, it will be the first LNG-powered icebreaker in the world.
The full scope of supply calls for one 8-cylinder Wärtsilä 20DF, two 9-cylinder Wärtsilä 34DF, and two 12-cylinder Wärtsilä 34DF engines.
The vessel will be able to move continuously through 1.6 meter thick ice, and be capable of breaking a 25 meter wide channel in 1.2 meter thick ice at a speed of 6 knots. It will also be able to reach an average assistance speed of 9 to 11 knots and in open water the service speed will be a minimum of 16 knots.
While the main purpose of the vessel is icebreaking, it will independently be able to perform oil spill response operations and emergency towing under demanding conditions both in winter and summer. The vessel will, therefore, operate all year round to ensure safe seaborne transports in the Baltic Sea.
"The new icebreaker features the highest technology and will be built especially to operate in the demanding winter conditions of the northernmost Baltic Sea. By being able to use LNG fuel, the vessel will be the most environmentally friendly icebreaker ever built," says Esko Mustamäki, Managing Director of Arctech Helsinki Shipyard.
"We are the industry leaders in gas fuelled vessel equipment, and are proud to supply the world's first LNG powered icebreaker with engines powerful enough to meet the customer's requirements. The combination of ice breaking power and environmental sustainability is difficult to achieve, but our dual-fuel engine technology has the capabilities needed," says Aaron Bresnahan, Vice President, Sales, Wärtsilä Ship Power.

If you are seeing a significant number of bubbles coming out of your return lines into the pool, you probably have an air leak in your filtration system. Possible sources of this problem are low pool water levels, leaks around the strainer lid, leaks in the unions or leaks in the pump seals. For optimum pool pump operation, the source of the leak must be identified and corrected.
Your swimming pool filtration system has two sections: the suction side (from the pool to the pump) and the discharge side (from the pump to the pool). Check the strainer pot of your pump. If you see a significant number of air bubbles moving through the strainer pot, you know that the air leak is somewhere on the suction side of the system plumbing before or at the pump.
Go over to the pool and check the water level. Ideally the pool water level should be at least halfway up the skimmer intake. If the water level is below this level, the skimmer is probably sucking air into the skimmer pipe to the pump. This is a simple problem to resolve. Simply fill the pool to the halfway point of the skimmer. Also check that nothing is holding up the flap of the skimmer opening to the pool. This could also let air into the skimmer suction pipe.
If the pool water level is adequate, your next step is to check the strainer lid on the pump. If it is not on tightly, you may be sucking in air around the lid. To check the lid, first TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE PUMP at the breaker box.
Remove the pool pump strainer lid. These are generally screwed on or are secured with toggle bolts. Pull the O-ring out of its groove. Clean out any debris that might be in the groove. Check the O-ring for any cracks or wear. Sometimes an older O-ring is stretched so that it bulges when you try to replace it in its groove. This is a common source of leaks. When you screw on the lid, the O-ring will bulge out and create a leak. Replace a worn or stretched O-ring. Also, it's a good practice to lubricate the O-ring lightly before replacing the lid. Use a good pool seal lubricant (Teflon or silicon). DO NOT use petroleum jelly.
If your pool pump strainer lid was not the problem, check the union commonly inserted before the pump. Again make sure that the power to the pool pump is turned off before unscrewing the union.
After separating the union, you should see an O-ring in the groove of the union. As mentioned in Step 4, check that this O-ring is not worn or cracked and that it is seated correctly in a clean groove. Lubricate the O-ring. Retape the threads of the union with two or three layers of Teflon tape and reconnect the union. Tighten the union by hand.
If these steps have not corrected your air bubbles, and you have an older pool pump, you may have a leak in the motor shaft seal. The picture (left) shows the location of the motor shaft seal in a cutaway version of a Hayward pump. For instructions on replacing a motor shaft seal go to our guide, How To Replace A Motor Shaft Seal.
Another source of air leaks is the motor's drain plug on the suction side of the motor. If this plug is loose, tighten it to stop the leak.
If you still have a significant number of air bubbles coming out of your return lines into your swimming pool, you may have a bigger problem like leaks in your underground lines. Call a pool maintenance professional to help you isolate your problem.

Fulk - I don't know what impeller backspin is. A pool motor can only spin one way by design. And where did the metal shavings from the threaded area of the impeller come from? Something wasn't working right on this new motor/impeller. And I would still spread shaving cream around the strainer lid to see exactly where the suction leak is and to show that it was not corrected by installing a new O-ring. This installer is not going to replace this motor. Get another pool man that will work with you.

The pool guy came back out, took apart the motor and said the impeller backspun, cleaned outsome small metal shavings from the threaded area of the impeller where it goes on the shaft, put it all back together and turned it on. He absolutely will not submit for a new unit and swears the air leak is coming from the skimmer line even after i showed him the "dents" where the lid sits and told him about the hand soap getting sucket in under the lid making bubbles in the hair trap basket when i tested for a leak. Home warranty is giving us the run around along with this guy. He wants to put stop leak in the skimmer line.

Fulk - Sounds like you have a bad "new" motor. Hopefully, the pop and humming of the motor is only a failed capacitor. To see what's involved in replacing a capacitor, see our guide on "How To Replace a Pool Pump Capacitor". To verify leaks around the strainer cover, try spreading shaving cream around the edge of the cover. You will confirm better when the suction leaks are and whether or not you can fix them. From your description, you may have a damaged motor with dents around the cover seal that the O-ring won't seal. And you already know this, but you need a new pool repair man.

So turned on the pump, heard a loud pop and now the "new" motor just hums.....

Did a hand soap "test" around the strainer lid and am pretty sure this is where the suction leak is coming from. The soap was sucked in along the edge of the lid at several different places. I shut the pump off, opened the lid and had some suds inside the basket.....I also looked and felt around the edge and there are about 3 spots that look and feel like they are dented right where the O ring and lid make contact with it...

Pool Service guy came out, would NEVER recommend his company to anyone, very undependable. Said the motor was bad but didn't check anything else. 3 days later he replaced it. Turned it on and decided to check the impeller and said it and the brass seal were bad as well. Had to order the impellor and seal but the "new" motor ran fine. After he replaced the motor every time we shut the pump off a "burp" of water would splash out from under the hair trap lid which it never did before. There is a new O ring on the lid also. It took the guy 2 more weeks to get the parts and come back out to put them in. He threw in a handful of granular chlorine, said it should help (water was shamrock green from algae) said he had other things to do and left. Took a total of a month just to get the motor and parts replaced. Everything worked great, had 20-25psi even while vacuuming and no bubbles for 2 DAYS! Now you can hear the "new" motor making a "pulsating" sound like the old one did, strong and then weak and the pressure is flucuating again between 0-15 and bubbles are horrible in the hair trap and return jets just like before! He did not check any of the plumbing to or from the pump for leaks. We are so frustrated and don't know what else to do. I imagine there is an air leak in the plumbing above ground somewhere but am confused about the pump issue. Is it possible its a bad pump or one with a hairline crack in the cast iron?......any suggestions?

Brad - You may have leaks in your cleaner hose or its connections. Hold the sections of hose that float on the top of the pool under water. If the stops loss of prime, you have a leak in one of those sections. Take one section out at a time to isolate the leaky section. If that doesn't work, check the section of hose that is going into the skimmer for leaks. If possible, submerge the hose below the water surface at the skimmer. Make sure the skimmer bucket is full of water so that air isn't getting into the system.

mpives58 - You still may be getting air sucked into your system on the suction side of your pump. A couple of thoughts. Did the tradesmen work near any of the underground suction pipes (assuming you have an in-ground pool)? Could they have loosened one of the joints? Thought two. Do you still have bubbles, if your run without the cleaner vacuum plate installed - e.g. without using the cleaner? If not, you may have a leak in one of the cleaner hoses or the plate. Is the plate completely under water? To test for a leaking hose, try holding all the hoses under water when the cleaner is operating.

Great site guys! I have a Pentair diverter to allow my inground pool to filer via the skimmer or the drain or both. When it is filtering via the drain, skimmer or both there are no issues. Only when I attempt to vacuum via the skimmer air is introduced into the pump and I loose suction. Any suggestions?

I have had problem with air bubbles seen at pool pump basket for a little while. It seems to coincide with tradesmen work recently done where localised excavation and fencing was done. I had a pool man come and check the system and he changed pump suction O Rings and e pump basket O Ring seals. He said the problem was better but I still see a big drop in water level in pump basket when cleaner is fitted and air in the top of basket. Recently another pool man came and checked and said the automatic valve in line with cleaner hose and skimmer box vacuum plate was sticking shut causing too much suction at cleaner head. Once this was unstuck the cleaner works better but there is still air at the pump basket but not as much. I spoke to the pool man and asked him if I have an air leak anywhere and he said the pump may be cavitating but I don't understand what this means. I have spent money trying to fix a problem but am getting confused by the outcomes so far. What can I do?

jeff - Check your new gasket and lid first. I always go back to my last repair to resolve a problem. Then here's a link to our guide on "How to Correct Low Water Pressure in Your Pool System". It may help resolve your problem. Check for a clogged impeller first. That is a common problem with low water pressure.

Frustrated in KS - Is this an in-ground or an above ground pool. If in-ground, did you buy an above ground pool pump instead of an in-ground pump? An AG pump has to be installed below the pool to have gravity dump water into the pump. It cannot suck water up above the pool to prime the pump.

Had to replace the pump since the old one decided it wasn't going to work when we started opening the pool. Put everything back together and now can't get it to prime. Tried all the troubleshooting techniques mentioned and can't find a leak. Could it be the pump?
Posted: 6/1/2016 11:54:38 AM
Brian - It is normal in most pool systems for some of the water to drain back into the pool when the pump is shut off. It normally takes 1-2 minutes for the pump to prime when it is restarted.
Posted: 5/31/2016 4:28:25 PM
Denise – You may have low water flow due to a clogged pump impeller. See our guide on "How To Clean Out a Pool Pump Impeller".
Posted: 5/31/2016 3:12:42 PM
tired of failure - You are right. Air would not be coming in from the broken filter gauge. It would be squirting water. Check for the obvious suction side air leaks listed in this guide.

I noticed that when my pump is off that air gets into my motor basket and the motor loses its prime. Does this mean there is a leak somewhere?

Please tell me what I should do. Inground pool with 3 jets, and air is coming out of only 1 jet. The basket near the filter shows no air bubbles at all. When the pump is turned off, I completely lose prime. Same happens after backwashing. To get the system to fill up, I have to dump a bucket of water into the basket near the filter and then clamp down the top. What do you recommend? Thank you so much

My pump box is pulling in a lot of air. I noticed the sand filter gage is broken. Can this cause air to be pulled in to the pump box or would it have to be on the other side of the pump?
Posted: 5/30/2016 9:52:08 AM
Randy – Sounds like you have most of the bases covered. I'd return back to the original inground suction leak to see if the repair has broken loose.
Posted: 5/30/2016 9:15:04 AM
Low water at skimmer – I think you are seeing the air bubble that had collected in the system when the water was low. They should be reduced significantly after the pump has run about 5 minutes.

First off I want to say thank you for this wonderful site. So I recently had a leak detection company come out and fix an inground suction leak. The pool is working great for a few weeks but then I noticed a lot of air bubbles in the return line and in the pump basket. I replace the pump lid over ring and the plug O-rings and I do not have any unions or diverter valves before the pump. If I prime the pump and turn it off it stays primed and never loses water. But when the pump turns on even on the lowest speed it starts drawing air bubbles. Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.
Posted: 5/25/2016 11:00:02 AM
the water got a little too low into my skimmer, now i have airbubbles coming out of the return. i have filled the water back up to the optimimum level how do i fix the airbubbles now?I read nothing on this anywhere....do I turn off the pump? it should be a simple solution
Posted: 5/24/2016 3:24:54 PM
confused - It sounds like you may have a blockage in the system. Some of the most common: a clogged impeller in the pump, a toy that has passed through the skimmer when you were cleaning out the basket and is stuck in the first elbow underground, a "clean" cartridge filter clogged with oils and chemicals, and a sand filter with clogged/broken laterals or standpipe. See our how to guides to correct these problems.

I have very low pressure coming out of my jet. i replaced the pump but same thing. There are no air bubbles coming out of the jet? no leaks as far as I can see.could there be a critter in one of the lines?.....i need help here!!
Posted: 5/18/2016 10:28:51 AM
Fulk - Sounds like you may have several problems. If you are losing prime when the vacuum is running, you may have an air leak in the vacuum hose. Try holding all of the hose under water. If that stops your pump losing prime, you probably have a broken connection in one of the hose connections. Then pull the motor out of the pump to check for debris inside the pump. Also, replace the motor's capacitor. That may solve your startup issue. We have how-to guides on all these procedures. Just type in "how to" and the information you are looking for, into our search field.
Posted: 5/17/2016 10:18:57 PM
We have bubbles coming from the return jets and you can see air/bubbles thru the lid of the hair trap when the water is circulating. The pressure on the filter gauge flucuates from 0 -10. If we plug in the va uum hose we lose all pressure and prime, both. We have changed the O rings on both lids, checked the other O rings ( 2 small ones still need replaced)and unions, tried your technique for cleaning the impeller, got nothing but can not pinpoint the issue. The pump is old (we just bought the house) and hums when you turn it on so we have to twist the shaft to help it start and while it runs the vacuum seems to fade from strong to weak or like it pulses..We have not checked the shaft seal, difuser or taken out the impeller to check..any suggestions? The previous owners did switch from a sand filter yo a cartridge one and disconnected or capped the main drain so that isnt an option.....Help!

HELP! I have the automatic vacuum cleaner in my pool. Every time when the filter is on (5 hours per day), the vacuum will be cleaning the bottom of the pool automatically. For the past week or so, every time, when the filter turns on, I noticed the basket linked to the vacuum cleaner is popping up above the water. (It should be under water). And I can hear there is air leak. The basket usually fills up with water, but when the filter is on, the basket becomes empty. Since my pool automatically adjusts water level, water has been leaking as long as the filter is on. Would you be able to help and let me know what exact I should do? Is there a leak on the vacuum itself? Do I must have the vacuum in order to have the pool function properly? I have pool guy coming every week, I was thinking if the leak is from the vacuum or anything attached to it, I may just remove the vacuum altogether. Suggestions? Thanks a lot!
Posted: 5/11/2016 10:48:51 AM
Hank - You may well have a leak in the pipes coming back from the main drain. During the winter, the ground can shift around the pipes and if the joints are not solid, one of them may separate. You will probably have to have a professional come in to look at your underground pipes.

I am getting a lot of air in my system, but no air when I turn off the main drain and just circulate from the skimmer.Is this the serious leak in the underground main line problem? Is this caused by incorrect winterizing? I live in MA.Thanks
Posted: 5/10/2016 11:46:16 AM
Very low pressure - If the water is just dripping slowly out of the discharge end of the pump, that probably is not your problem. Try removing your filter cartridge and running it without a filter. If that dramatically improves your flow, you need a new cartridge. Cartridges that are clogged with oil and chemicals may look clean but aren't. If you have a sand filter, try running in "recirculate" mode to bypass the filter. If that helps, replace the sand. If your filter is good, you may have a suction leak somewhere in the front end of the pump. May be causing backpressure in the filter.

I have air bubbles in my discharge side. The port that runs my pool vacuum/sweeper (Polaris) becomes VERY low pressure and won't run my sweeper. If I plug the port with my finger and let pressure build up I get big air pockets and bursts through the port. The pressure will stay god for a little while and then I have to repeat the process because the outward pressure becomes low again. On my discharge side pump there is a white PVC that comes out of the top of my pump at the end, I can see water around the neck where the pump ends and the pipe starts. Could this be the problem?

This Brow PSA Will Make You Drop Your Tweezers For Good
Photo: PLV/REX USA.
I'm obsessed with eyebrows. Between making my own look flawless and mooning over the sets of celebrities, I spend a good deal of brain time on this body part that plenty of people don't give a second thought to. But, good brow shape is actually worth talking about, as proven by this hilarious (but actually pretty revealing) PSA over on Buzzfeed. The post shows photos of celebrities who have swung from super-thin to bold-and-bushy brows over the years — and the results are pretty epic.
It's pretty amazing how one subtle swap of your beauty look can bring out your cheekbones, lengthen your face, and even make your eyes appear bigger. And, the before-and-after celeb snaps illustrate how powerful your brows actually are. Remember when Lauren Conrad had a pencil-thin set circa season one of The Hills? A few years (and a serious growing-out period) later, and the entire shape of her face has changed. Now, it seems softer and a lot more symmetrical. And stars like Jessica Alba, Gwyneth Paltrow, Miley Cyrus, and even the Olsen twins have benefitted from the simple step of changing up their brow game, too.
So, no, you aren't crazy for spending all that time in the morning filling those bad boys in. Click over to see more brow-spiration. (Buzzfeed).

Jackson, 28, was sentenced by Judge Rebecca Riley of California's
Ventura County Superior Court on Monday, according to a report from
the Ventura County Star. The fighter pleaded guilty on Dec. 13 to
multiple charges stemming from the alleged June 2008 incident,
including forcible rape.
Per the report, on June 28, 2008, Jackson sent a series of "erratic
and threatening" text messages to the unnamed Oxnard, Calif., woman
before raping her at gunpoint with a BB gun. Jackson allegedly
later admitted to planning the crime in secretly recorded telephone
Prosecutor Thomas Dunlevy told the Ventura County Star that
Jackson, who has been jailed since his arrest on June 30, 2008, was
potentially facing 60 years to life.
A California native, Jackson is perhaps best known for his brief
stint on "TUF 4," during which he was ejected from the reality show
by UFC President Dana White for leaving the filming premises
without permission, allegedly to rendezvous with a female
lifeguard. Despite not competing in the tournament, Jackson fought
at the season finale against Pete Spratt,
to whom Jackson submitted in the second round after suffering an
apparent neck injury.

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department has sued to recover millions of dollars from AT&T Corp., alleging the company improperly billed the government for services that are designed for use by the deaf and hard-of-hearing who place calls by typing messages over the Internet.
The system has been abused by callers overseas who use it to defraud U.S. merchants by ordering goods with stolen credit cards and counterfeit checks. In response, the federal government ordered telecom companies to register their users.
The Justice Department lawsuit said Dallas-based AT&T failed to adopt procedures to detect or prevent fraudulent users from registering. The government said the company feared its call volumes would drop once fraudulent users were prevented from calling on the system. The government reimbursed AT&T $1.30 per minute for every call on this system.
AT&T spokesman Marty Richter said the company has followed Federal Communications Commission rules for providing these services for disabled customers and for seeking reimbursement for those services.
AT&T has allowed thousands of calls by fraudulent users who registered with fake names or addresses and then billed the government for making the calls, the Justice Department said in court papers filed Wednesday. The department alleged that up to 95 percent of such calls handled by AT&T since November 2009 have been made by fraudulent users.
The United States has paid millions of dollars for calls by international fraudsters, the Justice Department's complaint says. Many of the calls are made by Nigerian users.
The department's action came as an intervention to take over a "private whistleblower" lawsuit that was filed in 2010 in federal court in Pittsburgh by Constance Lyttle, a former AT&T communications assistant in one of the company's call centers who made the original allegations about the improper billings. If the government is able to recover money as a result of the lawsuit, Lyttle would receive a portion of it.
The system is intended to help users who are hearing- and speech-impaired. "We will pursue those who seek to gain by knowingly allowing others to abuse this program," said Stuart Delery, the acting assistant attorney general for the Justice Department's civil division.
Under the Americans With Disabilities Act, the government must ensure the availability of telecom relay services allowing the hearing- or speech-impaired in the U.S. to place phone calls. One such service is Internet Protocol Relay.
Richter, the AT&T spokesman, said that "as the FCC is aware, it is always possible for an individual to misuse IP Relay services, just as someone can misuse the postal system or an email account, but FCC rules require that we complete all calls by customers who identify themselves as disabled."

Lesbian teacher wins £15,000 in discrimination case
Post your comment

Reader comments
Lillian Ladele cry your eyes out!
What is the use of £15000 when the woman lost her job as a result of bullying? This is terrible.
Oh, she'll get another job; she's only 37. Wish I was 37 again.
It is not clear from the article that the woman lost her job due to the bullying. The text said only that the teacher left her job after three years. If the teacher moved to another position with another employer, then the only damages for which she could claim would be "injury to feelings".
one would have expected at the very least that the education authority would have reprted that the culprits were receiving diversity training. At best, sacked

Published Wednesday, March 5, 2014 3:41PM EST
VANCOUVER -- The Vancouver Canucks have sent defenceman Raphael Diaz to the New York Rangers for a fifth-round pick.
A source confirmed the deal to The Canadian Press.
Diaz came to Vancouver last month in a trade with Montreal that sent right winger Dale Weise to the Canadiens.
He played just six games with the Canucks, scoring a goal and adding an assist.
In 134 games with Montreal and Vancouver, the native of Zurich has five goals, 33 assists and 48 penalty minutes.

KNOXVILLE -- Tennessee basketball player Jordan McRae's impressive showing at last weekend's Kevin Durant Skills Academy led to an exciting phone call for McRae Monday night. The rising senior guard was informed that he is among an elite group of players selected to participate in the 2013 LeBron James Skills Academy.
This year's event takes place Friday through Monday in Las Vegas; McRae departs Friday morning. Participants are selected on an invitation-only basis.
"It's an honor to be picked," McRae said. "It feels good to be recognized for my hard work and get another chance to work with an NBA superstar. The chance to learn from the two best guards in the world is a privilege and a blessing."
The Skills Academy features the nation's top-80 high school players as well as the top-20 college standouts taking part in four days of intense skill-development work and competition in front of hundreds of media members and scouts from nearly every NBA team.
A complete list of 2013 participants has yet to be published to the event's official website.
McRae is the first Vol to take part in the LeBron James Skills Academy since guard Scotty Hopson in 2010. Interestingly, Hopson has an opportunity to potentially join James – a four-time NBA MVP and two-time world champion – on next season's Miami Heat roster. Last week, Hopson finalized a deal to play on the Heat's NBA Summer League Team.

Nightstick introduces two new dual-light products
Both flashlights offer LED lights, one for focused lighting and one for floodlighting, that can be used in tandem or separately
By PoliceOne Staff
Nightstick unveils two new dual duty/personal flashlights with the NSR-9924XL and the NSR-9944XL.
Both come with sharp-focused LED lights that utilize high-efficiency deep parabolic reflectors for distance illumination, paired with a second, unfocused LED floodlight for close-up task illumination. Users can use both in tandem or separately as needs require.
The body switch or tail switch provide momentary or constant-on functionality, along with high, medium or low settings. They also offer a disorienting strobe option.
Nightstick's NSR-9924XL and NSR-9944XL flashlights are both powered by a CREE LED rated at 650 lumens, which reaches up to 902 feet.
The floodlight provides users with a wide, even, unfocused light rated at 600 lumens that eliminates high-lumen bounce-back.
The NSR-9924XL has rugged glass-filled nylon polymer housing, which is light without compromising on grip, strength or durability.
