vibe, with huge trees shading large yards, massive oaks lining grassy
medians, and zero tolerance for speeding motorists.
"I lived there for 15
years," Molina says. "I thought it was the safest place ever." But in the summer of
2008, her tranquil lifestyle was upended.
Between June and August, she claims, two boys attending a village-run summer camp with her son, who was then 5 years old, sexually assaulted him. Molina found out about the alleged abuse a month after her son started school.
"His personality changed dramatically," she says. "He went from outgoing and happy to extremely volatile and sad. He was getting in trouble at school, throwing things and tantrums."
Molina says when he finally told her what had happened, she went to the Biscayne Park Police Department to file a complaint. "But no one wanted to help me," she alleges. "No one wanted to write a report."
The village finally opened an investigation after she sought help from Kristi House, a child advocacy center. Her son told detectives and a therapist that the two boys, at the time 6 and 8, assaulted him several times in a bathroom. His mom then sued the village for negligence. They moved to Davie in 2009.
Molina complains that Biscayne Park lawyers wanted to put her son on the witness stand, which would have caused him more trauma. After a Miami-Dade judge rejected the village's motion to depose the boy, Biscayne Park asked the Third District Court of Appeals to overturn the ruling. The appeal was denied.
In mid-October, the village finally settled with Molina's son for $100,000. Michael Piper, the attorney who represented Biscayne Park, says the village's insurance company recommended settling based on economic reasons because the cost of going to trial would be triple what was paid to Molina. He declined to comment further.
"My son has been in therapy and on medications for the past four years," Molina says. "The village treated us like garbage. The residents should be aware that the summer camp program is not safe for children."

Subjects taught at LSE | Services and divisions (administration)
All research groups | Research subject areas
For an acute medical problem either call 999 and use the general National Health Service (NHS) emergency services or accompany the student to the School's health service at St Philips Medical Centre. In the case of mental health concerns, this may also be an appropriate course of action. Alternatively, contact one of the mental health and wellbeing advisers within the Student Counselling Service |or the Disability and Wellbeing Service| and/or LSE security (if concerned about personal or others' personal safety) on ext. 666.
The Student Counselling Service| can provide support for students who need expert help to work through life experiences such as bereavement or loss, anxiety, depression, ongoing mental health concerns, other major life events, etc.
The Student Services Deputy Advice Manage|r can provide either advice or appropriate referral guidance on student study and exam arrangements and for problems relating to general welfare, need to travel urgently, finance and legal difficulties. The key advice in this section is please ask if in doubt.
In the event of the death of a student, the Student Services Centre has procedures for ensuring that all relevant personnel across the School (including the Director, who usually writes to the family) are informed and that records are updated and closed appropriately. The key contact for co-ordinating these procedures is the Student Services Centre's Advice Team|.
A student is brought by her academic adviser (AA) to the departmental tutor (DT) in floods of tears and incoherent.
Suggested response: The DT first seeks to calm the student by asking them to take a seat and reassuring them that they are there to help and willing to listen. Transmitting an aura of calm professionalism is important. The student is sensitively told to take their time and say in their own words what the problem is. To say very little and 'just listen' in this situation is the advice from trained counsellors.
If the student remains distressed, they may be advised to contact the LSE Student Counselling Service. Appointments are made in advance, but each day there are also drop-in sessions available. These cannot be booked in advance and are available on a 'first come' basis: for further information call extension 3627.
A student comes to see the DT saying he is getting panic attacks when trying to study for exams. The DT advises him to see her doctor and get a medical note confirming these symptoms. The DT also suggests to the student that it might be beneficial to talk through his situation with the LSE Student Counselling Service and/or a Teaching and Learning Centre study adviser and/or the Mental Health and Well-being Manager in the Disability and Well-being Service (DWS).
The DT asks the student to come back for another meeting once further support has been sought to make sure that the School can properly respond the situation.
A week later, the student sees the DT again. The advice now is that he should visit the DWS and talk through his needs in more detail, as this may be a mental health disclosure covered by the DDA. This includes discussing the possibility of the School putiing special exam arrangements in place.
Suggested response: The advice to the DT is to document these exchanges and to check that the student has the necessary evidence to support his (possible) case for special exam arrangements and mitigating circumstances should that be necessary. The DT should, with the student's permission, write a brief report and copy it to the student and the Student Services Centre (SSC). The SSC will ensure that the report and any relevant evidence (which should be supplied to them direct by the student) are added to the student's personal Green File ensuring that appropriate information is held centrally. This is very important if his circumstances need to be taken into consideration at any later Student Progress Panel.

"Extension without inheritance, Part 1" focuses on mechanisms in Groovy, Scala, and Clojure that add new methods to existing classes — one of the many ways in which the Java.next languages enable extension without inheritance. This article explores how Clojure's protocols extend Java extension capabilities in novel ways and offer elegant solutions to the Expression Problem.
Although this installment primarily concerns extensibility, it also touches on some Clojure features that allow Clojure and Java code to interoperate seamlessly. The two languages are distinctly different at their cores (Java being imperative and object-oriented, and Clojure being functional), yet Clojure implements several conveniences that enable it to work with Java constructs with minimal friction.
Clojure protocols revisited
Protocols are an important part of the Clojure ecosystem. The last installment demonstrates the use of protocols as a way to add methods to existing classes. Protocols also help Clojure to mimic many of the familiar features of object-oriented languages. For example, Clojure mimics object-oriented classes — combinations of data and methods — by binding records and functions together through protocols. To understand the interaction between protocols and records, I must first discuss maps, the core data structure that underlies records in Clojure.
Maps and records
In Clojure, a map is a collection of name-value pairs (a familiar concept in other languages). The read–eval–print loop (REPL) interaction in Listing 1, for example, starts by creating a map that contains information about the Clojure programming language:
Listing 1. Interacting with a Clojure map
user=> (def language {:name "Clojure" :designer "Hickey" }) #'user/language user=> (get language :name) "Clojure" user=> (:name language) "Clojure" user=> (:designer language) "Hickey"
Clojure uses maps heavily, so it includes special syntactic sugar to make interacting with them easier. To retrieve the value that's associated with a key, you can use the familiar
(get ) function. But Clojure tries to make such common operations less verbose.
In the Java environment, the source code of the language isn't a native data structure; it must be parsed and translated. In Clojure (and other Lisp variants), the source code representation is a native data structure, such as a list — which helps to explain the language's odd syntax. When the Lisp interpreter reads a list as source code, it tries to translate the first element of the list into something callable, such as a function. So in Listing 1, the
(:name language) expression returns the same result as the
(get language :name) expression. Clojure offers this syntactic sugar because retrieving items from a map is a common operation.
Moreover, in Clojure several constructs can inhabit the function-call slot, thereby extending callability— the ability to called like a function. Java programs can invoke only methods and in-built language statements. Listing 1 illustrates that map keys, such as
(:name language), can act as function calls in Clojure. Maps themselves are also callable; you can use the alternate syntax
(language :name) if you think it's more readable. Clojure's extensive callability graph makes the language easier to use, cutting down on repetitive syntax (such as the omnipresent
get and
set in the world of Java programs).
However, maps don't emulate JVM classes in their entirety. Clojure provides other ways to
help you model problems that include both data and behavior — and that integrate
more seamlessly with the underlying JVM. You can create several constructs, including
types and records, that correspond with varying degrees of completeness to similar underlying JVM classes. You create a type — traditionally used to model mechanical structures — with
(deftype ). For example, if you needed a data type to hold XML, you'd likely use
(deftype MyXMLStructure) for the mechanics of extracting data that is embedded within XML. Records are used idiomatically in Clojure for data — as a record of information that's core to the application's purpose. To support this usage, Clojure automatically includes a slew of interfaces in the underlying record definition that include features such as callability. The REPL interaction in Listing 2 demonstrates a record's underlying classes and superclasses:
Listing 2. Record's underlying classes and superclasses
user=> (defrecord Person [name age postal]) user.Person user=> (def bob (Person. "Bob" 42 60601)) #'user/bob user=> (:name bob) "Bob" user=> (class bob) user.Person user=> (supers (class bob)) #{java.io.Serializable clojure.lang.Counted java.lang.Object clojure.lang.IKeywordLookup clojure.lang.IPersistentMap clojure.lang.Associative clojure.lang.IMeta clojure.lang.IPersistentCollection java.util.Map clojure.lang.IRecord clojure.lang.IObj java.lang.Iterable clojure.lang.Seqable clojure.lang.ILookup}
In Listing 2, I create a new record named
Person, with fields for
age, and
postal code. I can construct this type of new record by using Clojure's syntactic sugar for constructor calls (using the class name plus a period as the function call). The return value is the namespaced instance. (All REPL interactions take place in the
user namespace by default.) The callability rules still hold, so I can access members of the record using the syntactic sugar as in Listing 1.
When I call the
(class ) function, it returns the namespace plus classname that Clojure created (which is interoperable with Java code). I can also access the superclasses of the
Person record by using
(supers ). In the last four lines of Listing 2, Clojure implements several interfaces for you, including callability interfaces such as
IPersistentMap, which allows Clojure's native syntax for maps to work with classes and objects. The set of automatically included interfaces is one of the key differences between records and types, which get no automatic interface implementations.
Implementing protocols with records
A Clojure protocol is a named set of named functions and their signatures. The definition in Listing 3 creates a protocol object and a set of polymorphic protocol functions:
Listing 3. A Clojure protocol
(defprotocol AProtocol "A doc string for AProtocol abstraction" (bar [this a] "optional doc string for aar function") (baz [this a] [this a b] "optional doc string for multiple-arity baz function"))
The functions in Listing 3 dispatch on the first argument's type,
which makes them polymorphic on that type (traditionally named
this to mimic the Java context holder). All protocol functions must therefore have at least one argument. Traditionally, protocols are named with CamelCase; because they reify Java interfaces at the JVM level, matching Java naming conventions eases interoperability.
A record can implement a protocol, much like implementing an interface in the Java language. The record must (as a runtime check) implement functions that match the protocol signatures. In Listing 4, I create a record that implements
Listing 4. Implementing a protocol
(defrecord Foo [x y] AProtocol (bar [this a] (min a x y)) (baz [this a] (max a x y)) (baz [this a b] (max a b x y))) ;exercising the record (def f (Foo. 1 200)) (println (bar f 4)) (println (baz f 12)) (println (baz f 10 2000))
In Listing 4, I create a record named
Foo with two fields:
x and
y. To implement the protocol, I must include functions to match its signature. After I implement the protocol, I can call the functions as regular functions against instances of the object. Within the function definitions, I have access to both the record's internal fields (
x and
y) and the function parameters.
Protocol extension options
As a way to extend existing classes and hierarchies cleanly, protocols were designed with the Expression Problem in mind. (See the last installment for the full Expression Problem definition.) Because the extensions are functions (like everything else in Clojure), many of the identity and inheritance problems endemic to object-oriented languages don't appear. Yet this mechanism allows for various useful extensions.
Clojure is a hosted language: It is designed (using protocols) to run on multiple platforms, including .NET and JavaScript (through the ClojureScript compiler). JavaScript needs an environment that can set up, tear down, load, and evaluate code. So ClojureScript defines a
BrowserEnv record, which handles lifecycle functions such as
setup and
BrowserEnv is in Listing 5:
Listing 5. ClojureScript's
BrowserEnv record
The lifecycle methods that are defined in the
(-tear-down )) is a ClojureScript (not Clojure) convention.
Another goal of solutions to the Expression Problem is to be able to add new features to
existing hierarchies without recompiling or otherwise "touching" them. In version 1.5, Clojure introduced an advanced collection library called reducers. This library adds automatic concurrent processing for many collection types. To take advantage of reducers, existing types must implement one of the library's methods,
coll-fold. Using protocols and the handy
extend-protocol macro — which enables you to extend a protocol to multiple types at once — the
(coll-fold ) function is magically available across several core types, as in Listing 6:
Listing 6. Reducers attaching
(coll-fold ) to multiple types
(extend-protocol CollFold nil (coll-fold [coll n combinef reducef] (combinef)) Object (coll-fold [coll n combinef reducef] ;;can't fold, single reduce (reduce reducef (combinef) coll)) clojure.lang.IPersistentVector (coll-fold [v n combinef reducef] (foldvec v n combinef reducef)) clojure.lang.PersistentHashMap (coll-fold [m n combinef reducef] (.fold m n combinef reducef fjinvoke fjtask fjfork fjjoin)))
(extend-protocol ) call in Listing 6 attaches the
CollFold protocol (which contains a single method,
(coll-fold )) to the
IPersistentVector, and
PersistentHashMap types. Even
nil (Clojure's variant of the Java language's
null) works correctly with this library, handling the common edge case of empty collections. The reducers library also attaches to two core collection classes,
IPersistentVector and
IPersistentHasMap, to add reducer functionality near the top of those collection hierarchies.
Clojure uses an elegant set of building blocks to allow simple but powerful extension.
Because the language is function-based rather than class-based, some developers struggle
with code organization without classes as the main organizing principle. Clojure organizes code in much the same way as the Java language, less one piece. Java has packages, classes, and methods, whereas Clojure has namespaces (which roughly correspond to packages) and functions (which roughly correspond to methods). Clojure protocols also generate native Java interfaces when needed, which developers can use for interoperability. In Clojure, the convention is to define protocols at component boundaries and place similar functions and protocols within a namespace. Clojure lacks classes as an information-hiding mechanism, but you can define namespace-private functions (with the
(defn- ) function definition).
Clojure's code organization into namespaces makes clean, centrally located extension possible. Consider the
CollFold protocol in Listing 6, which appears in the reducers.clj file in Clojure's source. The protocol, new types, and extensions all live in this file, added with Clojure 1.5.
With protocol extension, you can reach back to core types (such as
Object) and add reducer functionality, some of which is implemented through namespace-private functions within the
reducers namespace.
Clojure manages to add significant new behavior to an existing hierarchy with surgical precision, without elaborate hackery, and keeps all the pertinent details in one place.
(extend-type ) macro is similar to the
(extend-protocol ) macro; with the
(extend-type ) macro, you can add several protocols to a type simultaneously.
Listing 7 shows how ClojureScript adds collection functionality to
Listing 7. Adding collection functions to JavaScript arrays
(extend-type array ICounted (-count [a] (alength a)) IReduce (-reduce [col f] (array-reduce col f)) (-reduce [col f start] (array-reduce col f start)))
In Listing 7, ClojureScript needs JavaScript arrays to respond to Clojure functions such as
(count ) and
(reduce ). The
(extend-type ) macro enables the implementation of multiple protocols in one place. Clojure expects collections to respond to
count rather than
length, so attaching the
ICounted protocol and function adds the appropriate method alias.
Records aren't required for the reification of protocols. Like anonymous objects in Java, protocols can be reified and used inline, as in Listing 8:
Listing 8. Inline reification of protocols
(let [z 42 p (reify AProtocol (bar [_ a] (min a z)) (baz [_ a] (max a z)))] (println (baz p 12)))
In Listing 8, I use a
let block to create two local bindings:
x and
p, the inline protocol definition. When I create an anonymous protocol, I still have access to the local scope: The presence of
z as a parameter is legal because
z is in scope for this
let block. In this way, the reified protocol encloses its environment like a closure block. Notice that I don't implement the protocol completely; some of the
baz function's arity versions are missing. Unlike Java interfaces, protocol implementations are optional. Clojure doesn't enforce the protocol at compile time but generates a runtime error if it expects a protocol method that doesn't exist.
This Java.next installment investigates how common Java conventions such as classes and interfaces map to structures in Clojure. It also explores the various uses of protocols in Clojure, and how Clojure solves the Expression Problem simply and elegantly, with multiple real-world variations. In the next installment, I conclude the Extension without inheritance miniseries with an exploration of mixins in Groovy.

Purchased from Signor A. Zarabbini, legal representative of the late Prospero Mantani, in 1906 for £15 1s 8d (350 lire)
Capital with impost block and part of the shaft
Unidentified Ravenna sculptor
Byzantine, before 547
Church of S. Vitale, Ravenna, Italy
The building of S. Vitale was financed by a local banker, Julianus Argentarius. It was commenced around 525 and was consecrated in 547 by Maximian, Bishop of Ravenna (546-56). The monogram of his predecessor Victor (Bishop of Ravenna 537-44), + VICTOR EPISCOPUS, appears on the impost block of this capital. The marble for the columns, capitals and chancel furnishings of S. Vitale was quarried and carved near Constantinople and the decoration of the capitals is analogous to that of the capitals in the church of SS. Sergios and Bacchos (527-36), Constantinople.

I told my kids what I had done. Coincidentally, one by one, they each got burned. My 11yr old was baking cookies, and burned herself on the oven rack (YOW!). She ran it under cold water and then used QT on herself until " walla" - no burn.
My little one who is 8yrs old went to a yard party with the oldest. They were shooting fireworks, so to be safe they put the youngsters up against the house and out of harms way. Yet, guess which way the fireworks went??? They shot right at them- not once but several times. She came home with 2 large burns on her shoulder and back. The shoulder had already busted open when I got to her. But I ran QT anyway. The one on her shoulder is almost healed and the one on her back never did get a blister, just a red spot.
Then, the Big Guy decided he had to keep up with the rest of us, while working on the pick-up. While lying under it, the trouble light fell on his bicep. He did not say anything to me about what happened, only the usual noise you expect to hear coming from under an auto when guys work on them.
He waited to say he had been burned until late into the evening, when he came in for supper. He had a big, ugly, juicy blister about 4 inches long. I ran QT into it, and he said it hurt and told me to leave it be, because it was hurting more.
He ended up rubbing against something and it popped. I tried working on him some more but he couldn' t handle it. When running QT, my hands get so hot that it was making it hurt more, (even though I have really deep healer' s palms that don' t touch the skin). I tried to lift my hands off of his skin, so it didn' t touch at all. It still burned. So I resigned to distant healing. I did some distant healing on his blistered area throughout the whole evening. After he went to sleep I worked on it some more, and today, 3 days later, the skin is rosy pink instead of that raw burned look.
Woo-Hoo! QT does it again!

Simple Solutions for a Technical World
Review Application Stories or Industry Specific links to see how Helical has designed and manufactured Standard and Custom solutions to solve design challenges presented by today's engineers. With a helpful and friendly engineering staff to answer technical questions or discuss your specific application, see why Helical is recognized as the industry leader in developing quality motion control solutions.
Original Innovative Technology
In 1958 Helical invented the beam style flexible shaft coupling by taking a novel concept and developing the method to generate the versatile HELI-CAL® Flexure into a piece of stainless steel. Once the endless possibilities of a single piece Flexible Shaft Coupling were fully realized the evolution began. Learning that additional coils could be added to the HELI-CAL Flexure for greater misalignment led to the U-Joint product line that is capable of torque transmission up to a 90 degree angle. Further development of the manufacturing process led to a HELI-CAL Flexure with precise spring rates in compression/extension, torsion, bending, etc. From this the unique and revolutionary HELI-CAL Machined Spring® has evolved.

History repeats itself in Anderson County.
The battles of Lawrenceburg and Dog Walk unfold for one weekend during the annual Civil War re-enactment, a piece of Anderson County's past some re-enacters fear might otherwise be forgotten.
The two-phase skirmish of 1862 was captured on iPad and cell phone alike last Saturday, the cannons' boom and rifle shots echoed in the crowd via digital gunshots from iGun apps.
Both presidents — Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis — gave speeches.
They fly above granite markers at the Healing Field in Lawrenceburg as a patriotic reminder of Kentucky soldiers who gave their lives in the war on terrorism.
Apparently, not everyone shares that level of patriotism because, sometime earlier this week, someone lowered two American flags and stole them.
Officials with American Legion Post 34 and its Auxiliary replaced those flags Wednesday afternoon, but said they can't understand why anyone would commit such an act.
A Lawrenceburg man was killed when the vehicle he was driving hit another head on Friday night in Franklin County.
Mikey S. Ward, 32, was driving south on US 127 when his vehicle veered into the northbound lane and struck another vehicle, according to a report in the Frankfort State-Journal.
Ward was pronounced dead while being transported to a hospital, the paper reported.
Two victims in the other car were injured. One was in critical condition. The other was in stable condition.
The Anderson County historical society hosted a bourbon and wine tasting fundraiser on the front lawn of Dowling Hall Sept. 24.
Attendees had the opportunity to tour the T. B. Ripy House, the only official historic landmark designated by the historic district in Lawrenceburg.
All proceeds of the event were to go to the historical society, according to organizers.
Salvisa native John M. Johnson received the William B. Garner National Boating Safety Leadership Award earlier this month in Milwaukee, according to a news release from the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA).
He received the award "in recognition of his ongoing efforts to steer the national nonprofit organization," the news release said.
2011 ACHS graduate and current Transylvania University student Rebecca Radcliffe has garnered one more award from her high school career: national publication.
Rebecca's poem entitled "Juntos" ("Together"), written last year for a poetry slam in AP Spanish class, was chosen for inclusion in the spring edition of Albricias, the quarterly magazine of the Sociedad Honoraria Hispanica, formerly the National Spanish Honor Society.

Q: What happened when the gel gets hard? will it loose effectiveness?
A: Advion cockroach gel bait will stay very palatable and moist, for up to 30 days. Put additional bait out if the cockroaches have ingested the bait or if you see that it is harder after the month period.
Q: Will this item work on wood roaches?
A: It would be better to use a good insecticide such as Cy-kick CS on the exterior of the home and where you are seeing the cockroaches, these roaches are typically not trying to take up residence but accidentally find there way inside. Better to control them on the outside. http://www.epestsolutions.com/cy-kick-cs-insecticide.html
Q: How does this active ingredient compare to Fipronil?
A: Advion Roach Gel bait has a different active ingredient that is very effective on cockroaches and has been proven to be one of the best cockroach baits on the market. I would recommend switching if you have been using fipronil for longer than 6 months

We have provided a list of commonly asked questions regarding septic systems. Contact our office if you have additional questions or ask for copies of our educational brochures.
A septic system is a subsurface wastewater treatment and disposal system. In most circumstances a septic system will serve only one individual house or building. The sewage from the house enters the system through a building sewer and is treated before being discharged into the ground. Modern systems include a septic tank to retain solids, greases and fats and a disposal field to allow the liquid (effluent) to flow into the ground.
(i.e. raised system, turkey mound, Wisconsin mound) A sand mound is a system in which the disposal field has been elevated above the original ground surface to account for a high water table, shallow bedrock, or other type of site constraint. A mounded system will normally include a pump tank and pump to lift the effluent up to the raised disposal field.
No. Although a sand mound does include the pump and its associated electrical connections, a properly designed and installed sand mound is no more prone to failure than a conventional septic system.
This is the simplest type of subsurface wastewater treatment and disposal system. A cesspool is common for homes built prior to 1930. The system consists of a pit that has been constructed out of field stone or concrete block. Sewage enters the pit through the building sewer. The liquid level in the pit rises while water is added. The water level drops as water flows out of the cesspool and into the surrounding soil. Cesspools are normally quite deep, and the pressure from the water column within the pit forces water through the openings into the soil.
You should pump your septic tank every 2 - 3 years under normal circumstances. If you have a large family you will want to pump the septic tank more often to prevent solids from flowing out of the tank and fouling the disposal field.
The primary function of the septic tank is to separate liquids from solids. Solids are retained in the tank after settling. Digestion of the solids occurs over time; however, the rate of solids accumulation exceeds the rate of solids digestion. Additionally, not all of the solids are digestible. Therefore, the solids level does rise over several years. A septic tank must be pumped periodically to prevent the solids level from reaching the outlet baffle where they are carried over to the disposal field.
A septic system is designed to treat domestic sewage generated through routine wastewater producing activities (i.e. bathing, dishwashing, toilets use, etc.). Do not dispose of harsh chemicals such as pesticides, paint and paint cleaners, solvents, degreasers, etc. in the septic system. The liquid fraction of the wastewater is discharged into the ground. Some organic chemicals will flow untreated through the septic tank and the soil, thus contaminating the underlying groundwater. Do not dispose of condoms, feminine hygiene products, baby wipes or other solid wastes in a septic system. These solids are not digestible and reduce the capacity of the septic tank.
When used at the recommended rate household bleach does not produce a high enough residual concentration of chlorine to harm a septic system.
Digestion of the solids that accumulate within the septic tank is a naturally occurring process. The microbes that drive the digestion process are present in raw sewage at a high enough concentration that supplemental products are not normally necessary. However, adding commercially available products will not harm your system.
A baffle is an internal component of the septic tank. An inlet baffle directs all sewage towards the bottom of the tank. An outlet baffle prevents floating scum and grease from escaping the septic tank and accumulating in the disposal field.
In New Jersey septic systems are regulated under New Jersey Administrative Code (NJAC) Title 7, Chapter 9A. The NJAC 7:9A Regulations have been in effect since 1990.
Why are septic systems in New Jersey so expensive? A combination of factors including design requirements and standards (NJAC 7:9A), subsurface soil conditions, materials costs, and market influences cause the price for a new septic system in New Jersey to approach $20,000 - $25,000. Most septic systems designed and installed in central and northern New Jersey are classified as soil replacement systems. When these types of systems are installed the native soil is excavated and hauled offsite. Special sand known as select fill is then placed in the hole. A single system may require as much as 400 - 500 tons of select fill. It is not unusual for the materials costs alone to exceed $12,000.
NJAC 7:9A requires that all septic systems be designed by a Licensed Professional Engineer (P.E.). Many municipalities require that the Engineer certify that a system is installed as designed. This requires engineering inspections throughout the construction period. Select fill must be analyzed in a testing laboratory to ensure that it meets the specifications of the design. Further testing is required in the field to verify that the select fill is compacted properly. Administrative authorities also require that the Engineer prepared a record drawing of the installed system showing 'as-built' locations of the system components.
Finally, a septic system is sized based upon the number of bedrooms in the home. Many new homes have 4, 5 or even 6 bedrooms. (The higher the number of bedrooms the larger the disposal field - i.e. more select fill.) The septic system must be large enough to accommodate all of the wastewater that would be generated from the dwelling if it were fully occupied.
Gray water is the portion of sanitary sewage that is not generated from toilets or urinals. This includes laundry wastewater, kitchen sinks, showers, etc. It is not unusual for homes built prior to the 1980's to have a separate septic system that handles the gray water. There are several municipalities in New Jersey that require separate gray water systems.
Black water is the portion of sanitary sewage that is generated from toilets and urinals.
Septic systems that have been designed in accordance with the NJAC 7:9A regulations provide at least 4 feet of unsaturated soil that will treat the septic tank effluent to the point where the effluent is clean enough to enter the ground water. Rainfall and melting snow can percolate into the ground and further dilute the effluent. Septic systems are normally located at least 100 feet from wells to provide a factor of safety and ensure that the well water remains clean and potable.
Normally a water well draws water from a deep aquifer that is vertically separated from the ground water into which the septic system discharges. If this is not possible the well can be cased (lined with a solid pipe) to 100 feet to provide the proper separation.
Can I build or plant anything on top of my septic system? NJAC 7:9A does not allow construction of swimming pools within 20 feet of a disposal field. Barns, sheds or other structures that are built on slabs may not be erected within 15 feet of a disposal field. Plants or trees with extensive root systems should not be planted within 10 feet of a disposal field. Avoid planting weeping willow trees within 25 feet of a septic system. As a matter of practicality decks, patios and other structures should not be located over septic tanks or pump tanks. These structures will restrict access to the main lid of the tank and cause problems during pumping.
If the grass over your septic system is lush green and the soil is moist, you may have problems with your septic system. You should contact an expert to examine your system to isolate the cause of this condition. If the grass over the septic system is brown, you most likely do not have enough topsoil to support the lawn's root system.
Routine pumping of a septic tank should occur every 2 - 3 years. If you have followed this schedule, saved the maintenance receipts, and your next regular pumpout will occur during the time your house is on the market there is no problem in having your septic tank pumped. However, if you have not followed a regular maintenance schedule and decide to pump your tank just before the sale of your home it may raise a red flag.
If you are concerned about the condition of your septic system it might make sense to have the system inspected by a reputable company before you put the house on the market. Minor repairs, if necessary, can then be performed in accordance with a permit issued by the Health Department. The recent repairs and the appropriate documentation may then become a selling feature for your property
Powdered detergent comes out of solution and collects in the septic tank. Liquid detergents do not present this potential problem.
Contact a reputable excavation contractor or engineering firm with experience in troubleshooting and correcting septic system problems.
The service technician was so nice, he explained everything he did and even gave me all kinds of information about my septic system. It made me feel a lot more comfortable about owning a septic system.

Historical Traveler Reviews Cyprotel Laura Beach Hotel Paphos
Laura Beach review
This hotel is generally okay, but not great. The food is sufficient and staff polite and very hard working - however and this is a biggy for all families: We discovered that local boys were gaining access to the hotel via fire exits, these boys -(19/17yr olds) were on the first floor landing with our 11yr old daughter and other guests children around the same age (all girls). The boys were ejected from the hotel after we alerted them to this. Our main concern was that these boys told my daughter they were guests of the management and gave false british names to her. She believed everything they said including that they were 13yrs old. Further to our distress we discovered that more men would be coming to the hotel the day before our departure. We feel both sick with what may have happened however extremely relieved that we discovered the security issues before anything could have happened to our little girl. The hotel did act quickly and our rep talked with the management, i would only warn others that this place is not entirely safe. If men are getting in through fire exits, approaching children god knows what would happen if a child was taken by one of them or assaulted on the premises - BE CAREFUL!
Child friendly hotel
Stayed at Laura Beach Hotel with a wedding party for a week commencing 5th June 2005. First time have stayed all inclusive - possibly the last. The hotel gives great entertainment for children with endless activities - certificate winners and kids disco's etc... Adults fared less favourably. The drinks were all millennium brands and seemed to taste the same - just alcohol - providing you could get served with the understaffing levels that appeared in some of the bars. As previous reviews pointed out pork featured heavily on the menu almost daily which was monotonous. The rooms were spotlessly clean and cleaned daily which was the best feature of this hotel! The hotel catered for weddings daily and the grill and al a carte room did not open for general clientelle just wedding parties - receptions. The beach bar did not open and many guests complained as the trek from hotel pool bar to beach was very hot and tiresome down steep rocky inclines - definately not suitable for the less hardy tourist. This was high season and we paid high season prices and expected all facilities that were advertised to be open - this was not so. Due to lack of staffing levels (I assumed) received attitudes from downright rude to happy smiley staff still aware that we were the paying customer - very mixed customer service, and long waits for service. As we had no children with us would definately not stay at this hotel again, along with other members of the wedding party we were with who all felt the same and said there was no comparison to 4* All inclusives that they had previously stayed in.
Couldn't fault it
We stayed here for 14 nights from 26th April. We couldn't fault it. The hotel was clean excellently furnished. Lots of seating areas. The pool was clean a little cold considering it was in the high 20's!
The food was good quality, nice selection. Always a seclection of salads, pasta grilled/roast meat and a local dish e.g Beef Stilado (beef tomato and onion stew) huge choice of desserts with fresh fruit and cheeses.
Full english brekkie where they cook fried eggs to order!
The entertainment was excellent, they had a daily schedule where every hour there ws something happening e.g volleyball, football, water polo, yoga, table tennis, darts etc. Then in the evening was cabaret, live music and always either a quiz or bingo after the kiddies disco.
The housekeeping staff were great fresh towels every day, beds changed every other day and they leave fresh flowers in your room and make swans out of the towels which is a nice touch.
We booked through tvtravelshop and saved a massive �400 on Thomas cook's brochure prices. have fun if you stay there hire a car it's well worth it as taxi to town is �5 each way. And there lots to visit
Poor service
Restarunt staff let this good hotel down badly, everywhere else in the hotel was fine.
Best hotel so far!!
We have just returned from our stay at the laura beach hotel and we were wondering where all the bad reviews come from. How can anyone say that this hotel is bad??? It is superb!!! The staff were friendly, the food was lovely, the entertainment was brilliant and the kids were looked after all day at the kids club!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can honestly say that this is the best hotel we have stayed in.
My family and I spent a week over New Year 2004 at this hotel - never again!! Ww were treated with arrogance and contempt by the Greek Cypriot Management. We had to move rooms twice before getting adequate accommodation, despite the hotel being only about 1/3 full. Foood was nowhere near 4* standard - poor quality, poorer selection - lots of recycling of dishes from previous days. Staffing levels were totally inadequate. The entertainment was also poor - only two nights were of approaching a professional standard - lots of bingo and three nights of quizes - nothing for children in the evening. Daytime ok if you liked darts, boules or billiards, but otherwise forget it. Given the 5k distance from Paphos this was expected to be better - again not 4*. The New Year's Eve Gala Dinner and New Year's Day champagne brunch were a joke - except that it wasn't funny. 80 or so Greek Cypriot guests moved into the hotel on the 31st for either 1 or 2 nights and were given preferential treatment regarding rooms and particularly the dining room table allocations - given the best tables and service whilst other nationalities were pushed to the sides of the room and ignored whilst Head Water and staff danced attendance on these 6 or 7 tables (including the personal guests of the Manager). Unable to get near the entertainment or dance floor a revolt ensued, resulting eventually in us being given an alternative disco downstairs. This was not what we had expected or wanted - treated very much as second class guests. When several guest approached the Head Water to complain about the prefential treatment given the Cypriots, they were told "Yes, but they have paid". As if the rest of us hadn't). The only good points were that the English and German guests started talking to each other in their disgust. Our super Rep, Christina, was great - organising the final accommodation for us, but she couldn't do anything about the food or entertainment. Many people demanded to be moved or just checked out. In retrospect we should have done the same, but with a disabled daughter to consider and as we were only there for a week (thank goodness) we didn't. It is an experience we will not be repeating. This hotel should be demoted to a 2* at best. My husband spent the last three days looking forward to his meal on the plane home - says it all I think!!!!!!
Brilliant (loved it)
We have just returned from the 'laura beach hotel', it was brilliant, and we are going back next year. We have two children aged 6 and 2, we would definately recommend this hotel to families. It is beautifully clean, good food, excellent facilities (we were all inclusive), excellent service, great people and there is a fabulous animation team to keep the children and adults entertained.
Superb holiday
Just returned from a holiday at the Laura Beach Hotel in Pathos. I would recommend it highly. The service is second to none. The hotel itself is stunning, set in a beautiful location.
Loved IT!
Laura beach hotel is deffinatley the best place I have ever stayed. Amaing facilaties, clean. fun and great! STaff were very helpfull, food was good,went in 2002 and it was very good!
Laura Beach = brilliant
I loved the Laura Beach Hotel in Cyprus. I have read numerous bad reviews of the hotel and cannot understand where people they can fault the hotel. There was a wide variety of delicious food, they still served chips for people who did not want to try foriegn food. The animators were great, they worked very hard and made my stay at the hotel very enjoyable. The night time entertainment was varied from cyprus night (where local dancers were brought in) to a cabaret night, where the animators performed. Also every night started with mini disco for the kids followed by a game of bingo!
The hotel's reception is very posh looking and the pool is a good size. The hotel is located right on the beach but in my opinion the beach isn't that good. It is very small and the sea has large rocks in it, but you can still swim and sunbathe.
The hotel is definitely worth its 4 stars and i would love to return again sometime.

A passenger van has plunged into a ravine in Kashmir, killing at least 12 people and wounding 14 others, police said.
The accident occurred in Arja area, 65 kilometres east of Muzaffarabad, the capital of Pakistan-administered Kashmir, on Sunday local time.
"The 24-seater van was coming to Rawalpindi from Bagh area when it plunged into a ravine at Arja, killing 12 people including women and wounding 14 others," senior local police official Riaz Abbasi told AFP.
He said the accident apparently happened due to the poor condition of the road, but added: "We are still investigating."
Pakistan has one of the world's worst records for fatal traffic accidents due to poor roads, badly maintained vehicles and reckless driving.

Dianne Reeves (Blue Note)
Jazz critics, particularly those of a purist bent, can be a persnickety lot. Consider Reeves's can't-win-for-losing plight. Once hailed as one of the genre's bright young hopes, Reeves was already singing with trumpeter Clark Terry's big band while she was still in high school. But she suffered critical lashings for spicing her 1987 album, Dianne Reeves, with Afro-Cuban, rock-fusion and—crime of crimes—pop flavorings. Then when she addressed social issues in 1993's underrated Art and Survival (one song railed against female ritual circumcision), Reeves was dissed for being too emotional. On this intoxicating live album (the 10th release of her career), Reeves, now 43, is simply being herself, which means she packs loads of oaken-timbred feeling into pop and jazz standards ("Suzanne," "Love for Sale") and some sturdy, classically constructed originals. Reeves also scat-sings sublimely, and she even turns her musings to the audience into an intriguing sonic mosaic.

Payroll Audits Put Small Employers on Edge
Tax Crackdown Comes as Use of Contract Workers Grows; Companies Find Rules Unclear
Internal Revenue Service auditors showed up with little warning at Brian Robinson's staffing firm in Atlanta a year ago, seeking to verify that a dozen outside contractors he had hired to handle his information-technology services weren't, in fact, full-time staffers.
The audit was part of a government crackdown on employers who misclassify workers as independent contractors to avoid paying payroll taxes, and other employment-related expenses.
Mr. Robinson says the auditors ultimately found that his 30-year-old family business, TRC Staffing Services Inc., with its 100 permanent employees and up to 20 temporary workers, was in the clear. But he says the audit was "nerve wracking" because tax law doesn't make it easy to distinguish between full-time staff and independent contractors doing full-time work. He says the legal distinction can be confusing even for an employer with his decades of experience in the labor market.
The appeal of using outside workers is growing as many small businesses struggle to stay lean. Some employers also are turning to contractors to avoid hitting the 50-employee threshold that would require them to pay for employees' health insurance, starting next year, under the federal health-care law, or pay a penalty.
State studies have shown that local businesses misclassify anywhere from 10% to more than 60% of their workers as independent contractors. Many business owners blame the complex tax code, which doesn't offer black-and-white standards for telling the difference. The distinction is based on the employer's degree of control over a worker, the length of the relationship and a series of other factors. But such factors are open to interpretation. Past court cases on the issue have had different outcomes, providing little guidance.
In the past three years, the IRS, working with the Labor Department and officials in more than a dozen states, set a goal of investigating 6,000 employers, like Mr. Robinson, to ensure their workers are properly classified. Since September 2011, the government has collected $9.5 million in back wages for more than 11,400 workers who were misclassified as independent contractors by their employers, the Labor Department says.
The crackdown is aimed in part at boosting tax revenue. Employers don't pay or withhold income taxes, Social Security, Medicare or unemployment taxes for independent contractors, as they do for staff workers. The U.S. Treasury estimates that forcing employers to properly classify their workers—while tightening so-called "safe harbor" rules that provide them with leeway in determining who is and isn't an employee—would yield $8.71 billion in added tax revenue over the next decade.
Despite the threat of a payroll audit, more small employers are finding that independent contractors are essential to remaining competitive. The number of small firms that rely on outside contractors, for everything from technology services and public relations to marketing and sales, has grown sharply over the past five years, according to SurePayroll, a Chicago-based payroll-management firm whose clients are small employers.
The firm says that the proportion of contractors on the 80,000 small-business payrolls it processes every month has nearly doubled over past six years, rising to 6.7% last month from 3.4% in February 2007.
"As economic situations get tougher, that's when everyone is looking to cut costs," says Lisa Petkun, partner in the tax-practice group at law firm Pepper Hamilton LLP in Philadelphia. "It's significantly cheaper to have an independent contractor."
Using independent workers gives employers flexibility to hire only when there is work to be done, and leaves them with fewer tax obligations—and thus less paperwork—than do regular full-time workers. Using contractors also can cut benefits costs: they typically aren't eligible for such benefits as health insurance and paid maternity leave.
A Michigan State University study estimates that contractors can save employers as much as 40% on labor costs. Indeed, some business owners say the IRS audits could stifle their ability to grow as demand picks up.
"I'm either going to hire someone full-time to do a job or we just won't do it," says Ciaran Dwyer, chief executive of 3t Systems Inc., a Denver-based IT company with 65 full-time workers. His firm relies on about a dozen outside contractors at any given time, depending on demand, he says.
Rather than risk an audit, and perhaps costly penalties—Mr. Robinson, the staffing-firm owner, says many of his small-business clients are rushing to convert any long-term contract workers into permanent staff.
Mike Johnson, a human-resources manager in Atlanta with over 35 years of experience with small employers, ranging from commercial insurance to telecommunications firms, says a payroll audit is a major disruption for a small business. "Apart from the legal expenses, the downtime is just not worth taking the risk," he says.
In January, the IRS extended an amnesty program designed to encourage employers to voluntarily reclassify contractors as employees by waiving some penalties. Under the program, employers pay as little as 1% of the wages paid to their reclassified workers the previous year, rather than the full amount they owe in back taxes. So far, 1,000 employers have signed on since the program was launched in 2011, the agency says.
In recent years, Congress has proposed various bills to clarify the definition of independent contractors, including as recently as December, though none of the bills has passed.
Chris Whitcomb, tax counsel for the National Federation of Independent Business, a small-business lobbying group, says that without a clear definition of who counts as an independent contractor, many employers don't know whether they are complying with tax rules "until they get audited."

"I talked to an advance scout that told me if Joey Votto and Albert Pujols were on the same team he'd advise his team to do the unthinkable...pitch around Votto to get to Pujols." - Buster Olney, ESPN
Double into the LC gap. 5-0 Oakland. Not a bad pitch really. Low in the zone but caught a bit too much of the plate.
Simon warming.
Cingrani gives up a run -- has he thrown anything except fastballs?
The older I get - the better I was
and yes - I hate the Cardinals (Reds fan since 1958)
cingrani STILL believes he can get everybody out with one pitch.
Just something about the mindset of this team. They don't seem to respond to the challenge. There are injuries and deficiencies, but the team seems dead out there.
I mean, how can this team be whitewashed by this Griffin guy? And last night constantly leaving bases loaded, two men on.
Reds just seem to be a limited team. They can win on the backs of great starting pitching, but that's it.
Prepare for the 7 game deficit after this road trip is over. I never would have guessed it.
"You only have to bat a thousand in two things; flying and heart transplants. Everything else you can go 4-for-5."
-Beano Cook
Strikeout ends the inning. Cingrani got him on a curve.
Yes, a curve.
Pretty slider there for the K. But one more comes across to make it 5-0 Oakland.
Time to light a fire under this team Dusty. Let's go boys!!!
~edit~ D'oh. CLEARLY a curveball. Just got in the slider mindset I guess.
LOL, with the Reds losing all these games, Cingrani still is able to work on those secondary pitches. See, it all worked out fine.
I was at the Saturday and Sunday games in AZ and saw Bob Castellini there. He has a home in AZ. I hope he is on this trip to Oak and Tex and sees we need offensive and bullpen help.
