While the flu season means an increase in visits to the doctor, one Australian GP reflects on what it means for families living in poor communities.
This post was originally published in The Mercury on 23rd September, 2015.
Every parent knows that a cold winter is no small concern to their newborn child. This year was a particularly difficult one, with a peak of viruses that has seen a steady stream of snotty, miserable babies through my door as a rural doctor.
On Monday, Josh comes in. He is usually a happy baby with rosy cheeks and bright brown eyes but a virus has left him pale and dull-eyed.
The virus has caused bronchiolitis, a condition that has got him working hard to breathe and he's not feeding.
Josh doesn't need to go to hospital so I give some advice to mum on how to keep him hydrated overnight. He makes it through two nights and I am happy to see by Wednesday he is still a little sick but happily munching on a banana. Mum is relieved, but it doesn't take a doctor to see she is exhausted from worry. Everybody knows that look.
Right now somewhere in the world there is another mother wearing the same look, her son is equally sick but won't recover and sadly she will join a global statistic.
Every day around the world parents of 16,000 children will watch their child die from a poverty-related illness. She does not have access to basic nutrition, housing and immunisations. She cannot afford to treat a simple infection.
You might find that number as harrowing as I do, if I could stretch out a hand to those children, I would.
You might think 16,000 children a day is too large a problem to solve, but 15 years ago the number was 27,000.
As part of the greatest global effort to end suffering the United Nations Millennium Development Goals helped the world achieve this reduction in deaths in addition to halving extreme poverty, halving hunger, increasing the survival of birthing mothers and more.
We achieved so much in the span of a few years, and you as Australians were part of that. Even if we only contributed a minuscule 0.2 per cent of Gross National Income to foreign aid.
Want more exciting news? There is hope for these children. By 2030 we aim to end extreme poverty for all.
Our next chapter after will be guided by the Sustainable Development Goals. These goals are designed to help and support every country in the world, including Australia.
On Friday, September 25, at a summit in Washington DC, world leaders will meet to agree on these goals.
The SDGs are achievable with a strong commitment to aid. Our new Federal Government needs more public support to continue our aid programs — and remember this is in our best interests.
Tasmania has a strong tourism partner with China, a country that has lifted itself out of poverty.
We also have strong trade partnerships with India and throughout the Asia Pacific, these will continue to grow if there is ongoing development in the region.
Countries with less poverty have more security. We also protect ourselves from the spread of disease if we keep levels low in our region.
These benefits and more are supported by the leading economists behind the SDGs.
Tasmanian families are grateful that the flu season is coming to a close so let's use the SDG summit commit to better health for our global family. What can you do?
Share it. Talk about it. Tell our leaders we support it.

"As the November G20 leaders summit approaches in Brisbane, the Australian Government has already scrubbed the words 'climate change' from the meeting agenda, which will focus on driving economic growth. But Peabody [Energy] has been busy trying to get its own particular view of 'energy poverty' in front of the G20 world leaders," writes Graham Readfearn in The Guardian.
Will a Dirty Kosovo Coal Plant Spoil the World Bank's Clean Energy Record?
"For the fourth year in a row, the World Bank's investments are coal-free. But the real test of the strength of this commitment will come when the bank decides whether or not to fund the Kosovo C coal-fired power plant in Kosovo," writes Justin Guay from the Sierra Club in Huffington Post.
"A lot has changed in the last few years. Just a few years ago, with prices of both thermal and coking coal through the roof, it was cigars and caviar time for an industry who were proposing more new projects than you could point an activist at. A long and glorious future was expected, based on China's insatiable demand for coal – our coal," writes Julien Vincent from Market Forces in RenewEconomy.
Reclaim Power: The Global Week of Action on Energy is happening this week, with actions around the world protesting dirty energy such as coal, nuclear, big dams, fracking and incineration. October 17 is the global day of action on coal. In the Philippines, the Philippine Movement for Climate Justice along with its members, partners, and a new campaign network called Power for People, will be organizing a national day of action against coal at 23 sites across the country. The groups will be calling for renewable energy, not coal, to solve an impending energy shortage in the country.

Australia: GVK-Hancock wins environmental approval for Alpha mine but hurdles remain.
Australia: Bank sued over refusal to put resolution on 'unburnable carbon' to shareholders.
Bangladesh: Government pledges to build 1320 MW power plant at controversial Barapukuria coal mine.
South Africa: Eskom cost-cutting leaves renewable energy generator without grid connection.
US: Navajo coal company gets US$1 million government grant to look for more coal.
US: Oxfam sues Securities and Exchange Commission over delay on global mining payments rule.
said Madhusudhan Rao, the group executive chairman of the Indian headquartered Lanco. Lanco is hoping to sell its Griffin coal mine in Western Australia, which has plans for a major coal export expansion.

Subsidies and costs of EU energy: An interim report, Ecofys, October 10, 2014. (Pdf) This report details the comparative costs of electricity, including allowing for health and environmental costs, in all 28 European Commission countries. The report finds that onshore wind is the cheapest followed by offshore wind, nuclear and solar. Coal power is estimated to cost almost three times as much as onshore wind.
Africa Energy Outlook: A focus on energy prospects in sub-Saharan Africa: World Energy Outlook Special Report, International Energy Agency, October 13, 2014. This report reviews likely energy demand in sub-Saharan Africa to 2040 and estimates that coal production could grow by 50 per cent, mostly for domestic consumption or export to neighbouring countries. The main exporters are likely to be South Africa, Mozambique and potentially Madagascar.
This report reviews the lending performance of the four major multilateral development banks for distributed renewable energy generation against the International Energy Agency's scenario for providing electricity access for all. All four of the banks scored a 'fail' when assessed against five energy access criteria.
"Why India's numbers on air quality can't be trusted", Economic Times, October 14, 2014.
This article dissects the numerous flaws in India's air pollution monitoring and reporting system and explains why the country's air quality is likely to be far worse than official reports state.
No forest destruction for coal!

Natacha Best is a well established artist who splits her time between Paris, France and Hydra Island Greece. Natacha is a water colourist who presents intensely detailed scenes of Hydra that are instantly recognisable by Hydra fans, making her work extremely accessible and popular.
NATACHA BEST lives inside her paintings.
The pristine buildings, painstakingly rendered in her watercolors, are the place where she resides, creatively. In real life a self-described nomad who has never owned a home of her own, she creates her own architectural environment every time she touches brush to paper.
In the world of NATACHA BEST the electric lines have been erased, and the piles of stone rubble surrounding the historic buildings on a Greek island are tidily eliminated.
In much the way that the artist composes herself, meticulously, with every strand of hair in place, every color of bauble chosen to match every other gem in the multiple bracelets that ring her slender wrists, NATACHA BEST paints with precision. Having begun her career as a miniaturist, she holds on to the tools of her youth, and even when painting on a larger scale, she uses tiny brushes sometimes of only a few hairs each.
One suspects that were there to be people in her architectural renderings, they would look just like the artist herself. Calm and composed. Styled and coiffed to the nth degree of perfection. Where are the people in these pristine townscapes? They are populated only by the artist, who invites the viewer to enter her perfect and pristine world. Self-taught in fine art, but educated in art history at the Sorbonne and the Louvre, NATACHA BEST draws upon her innate gift as a colorist, applying the watercolors thickly to her plein-air sketches. Too private a person to paint outdoors in public view, the artist sketches on site and paints in her studio.
Using watercolors not in broad washes, but applying them tightly in the traditional manner of oil painters, she denies the medium its intended use, letting loose only in the broad expanses of her skies. These heavenly renderings occasionally take on the cubist manipulation of a Cézanne landscape (e.g. "Hydra Port 2"). But the reflections of buildings and boats in her Aegean seas are applied in the constrained, stroke-by-stroke, precision of the egg tempera painters of the early Italian Renaissance.
Her perceptive choices of perspective, of which she claims modestly to be completely ignorant, recall the best of American so-called primitives like Grant Wood in a sweeping birds-eye view, for instance, from the top of a Greek island 'Hydra Top 1'. NATACHA BEST"s rendering of the nuances of reflected light under a series of white vaulted arches 'Naxos Arche' brings to mind the stark interiors of the painters of Netherlandish churches.
Natacha places herself, and chooses her subjects near the water. The buildings often appear twice, once in reality and then a second time in reflection. "I cannot live far away from the water because for me the water is something primordial. The reflections are becoming more and more important in my paintings. I worked for years with light and shadows and now I am slowly, slowly entering more into nature and reflections in the water." Reflective works indeed.
The paintings in the following gallery are for sale and can be purchased online and delivered by courier. Please view gallery for painting details, sizes & prices.
If you are interested in purchasing an original water colour painting by Natacha Best please enquire using the email form below. Natacha speaks French, English and Greek fluently.
Commissions for paintings of your favourite Hydra view are considered, again please get in touch by email.
Payment & Deliver: Prices of paintings for sale do not include packaging and delivery. The price is calculated by weight and destination and delivery is by courier from Hydra to anywhere in the world. Once delivery price is agreed, you will be sent account details for you to deposit the full amount due and you will be given a courier tracking number.
In the first instance, please contact Natacha DIRECTLY using this secure email form. Please note that HydraDirect DOES NOT get a copy.

Metaverse: Future Of The Internet Or Just Another Technological Leap?
By Biswas Debanjan
The term "metaverse" has become a buzzword, with its popularity reaching new heights after Facebook announced it was rebranding its portfolio of firms "Meta" in an effort to match its businesses with its goal of building the metaverse. The Metaverse is a widely speculated version of the Internet that suggests the confluence of virtual and augmented reality, social media, and online gaming.
To understand how our report can bring difference to your business strategy, Ask for a sample brochure
Users can engage with a computer-generated environment and other users in the metaverse, which is the tech world's mirror to the actual world. Virtual reality, which creates permanent virtual worlds that exist even when users are not playing, and augmented reality, which is the merging of digital and physical worlds, are two technologies that can make up the metaverse. It isn't necessary, though, for those areas to be only accessible through AR or VR. Metaverse is a virtual environment that may be accessed by personal computers, gaming consoles, and even mobile phones, such as games and video games. Virtual identities or avatars are attached to a single platform on the currently existing platforms. It has the potential to be revolutionized by the Metaverse. It may enable users to develop a character that they can take with them wherever they go — in a manner similar to copying and pasting a photo from one social media site to another.
Download report summary to get extensive insights into the Metaverse Market
The Metaverse is supposed to be the next-generation internet and a virtual realm in which objects can appear as colorful and alive as they do in real life. The idea that virtual and 3D environments that are interactive and accessible in real-time might become transformative for social and corporate engagements is at the heart of the metaverse concept. Experts believe that the cornerstone of these worlds could be expanded reality. The metaverse maybe still a decade or two away but it has opened up a whole new world for cryptocurrencies and is expected to shape the way people live and work. According to a recent market analysis by Reports and Data, the metaverse market would reach USD 872.35 billion in 2028, with a revenue CAGR of 44.1 percent over the forecast period.

Tom Harper, Lawrence, sands wood planks inside a former church at 1146 Connecticut St. Harper purchased the building and is renovating it into a single-family residence. The wood-frame building was first constructed in 1873 (possibly earlier) as the Free Methodist Episcopal Church, and Harper believes the church was lifted to enable the basement to be added in a later decade.

Born again: Old Lawrence churches converting to new purposes
Several pre-1900 Lawrence churches are finding new life after once-thriving congregations abandoned them. Tenants love the typically light, airy spaces, and architecture buffs love seeing the unique buildings carry on, despite often costly and challenging renovations. Here are five of Lawrence's oldest churches, reborn. By Sara Shepherd

Гаральд Нільсен (,  26 жовтня 1941, Фредеріксгавн—11 серпня 2015) — колишній данський футболіст, що грав на позиції нападника.

Найбільших здобутків досяг, виступаючи за «Болонью», у складі якої двічі поспіль ставав найкращим бомбардиром Серії А, а також вигравав чемпіонат Італії. Також виступав за національну збірну Данії, у складі якої став срібним олімпійським призером 1960 року.

Клубна кар'єра

Ранні роки
Коли Гаральд Нільсен був маленьким, він не захоплювався футболом. Але на 6-й день народження Гаральда, його батько подарував йому бутси. З 10-ти років Гаральд почав грати у футбол. Нільсен грав на аматорському рівні, одночасно з цим він працював помічником інженера на заводі Alpha-Diesel.

«Фредеріксгавн»
1957 року Нільсен прийшов на перегляд у молодіжний склад клубу «Фредеріксгавн», і в першій же грі забив гол. А у віці 17-ти років почав виступати за основний склад «Фредеріксгавна», дебютувавши 15 березня 1959 року. У тому сезоні ця гра стала для Нільсена єдиною. У першому матчі наступного чемпіонату Нільсен забив 4 голи, а його клуб переміг 5:4 «Ольборг». Всього в тому сезоні Гаральд забив 19 голів у 21 матчі Другого дивізіону, допомігши команді зайняти друге місце і вийти в еліту.

1960 року Нільсен дебютував у вищій лізі чемпіонату Данії в матчі проти «Фрему», в якому Гаральд забив всі 3 голи. Після цього Нільсен продовжував забивати і став найкращим бомбардиром першості, забивши 19 м'ячів, а його клуб посів 5-е місце.

Наступного року Нільсен став найкращим футболістом Данії. Останній матч на батьківщині Нільсен провів 24 квітня 1961 року проти «Оденсе»; його клуб виграв з рахунком 2:1, обидва м'ячі забив Нільсен.

«Болонья»
Влітку 1961 року, у віці 19-ти років, Нільсен перейшов в італійську «Болонью», яка заплатила за трансфер гравця 200 тис. крон. Гаральд дебютував у складі «Болоньї» 27 серпня 1961 року в матчі з «Палермо», який Болонья виграла 2:1. За перший сезон в Італії Нільсен забив 8 голів у 16-ти іграх чемпіонату. А в наступному сезоні забив 19 разів, ставши найкращим снайпером турніру. Через рік Нільсен вдруге став найкращим бомбардиром чемпіонату, чим допоміг клубу виграти Серію А, вперше за 23 роки. Після перших трьох вдалих сезонів в Італії результативність Нільсена почала повільно падати.

Останні роки
1967 року Нільсен перейшов в «Інтернаціонале», який заплатив за трансфер данця 2,5 млн доларів. Купівля Нільсена міланським клубом була зумовлена тим, що головний тренер «нерадзуррі» Еленіо Еррера побоювався переходу Нільсена в «Ювентус», який також вів з ним переговори. Проте в «Інтері» Нільсен не зміг завоювати місце в основному складі, чому заважали травми та зайва вага данця. Через це він за «Інтер» провів лише 8 матчів. У 1968 він перейшов до «Наполі», де також рідко виходив на поле.

Завершив професійну ігрову кар'єру у віці 29 років у «Сампдорії», за яку виступав протягом сезону 1969-70 років, але зіграв лише чотири матчі.

Виступи за збірну
У 1958–1959 роках виступав у складі юнацької та молодіжної збірної Данії

13 вересня 1959 року Нільсен дебютував за національну збірну Данії у матчі проти Норвегії в Осло, ставши на той момент наймолодшим гравцем в історії національної команди (17 років і 322 дні). У цій грі він забив гол.

Наступного року Нільсен у складі збірної поїхав на Олімпіаду в Рим, де зайняв з командою друге місце. Сам Нільсен з 6-ма м'ячами в 5-ти іграх став другим бомбардиром турніру та отримав прізвисько «Золотий Гаральд».

Після переходу до італійської «Болоньї» у 1961 році Нільсен був змушений перестати виступати за збірну у віці 19-ти років, оскільки її правила забороняли виступати в ній гравцям з інших чемпіонатів. Протягом кар'єри у національній команді, яка тривала усього 2 роки, провів 14 матчів, забивши 15 голів.

Після завершення ігрової кар'єри
Після завершення кар'єри гравця Нільсен відкрив фірму, яка займалася імпортом італійської шкіри в Скандинавію. В 1970-х роках Нільсен разом з політиком Гельґе Сандером став просувати ідею професійного футболу в Данії, і в 1977 році вони створили Професійну футбольну данську асоціацію, що стала альтернативною футбольною лігою країни. Їхня ініціатива не увінчалася успіхом, але викликала бурхливі дебати, внаслідок чого 1978 року була відкрита професійна данська футбольна ліга, яка замінила аматорську.

1992 року Нільсен став першим менеджером нового клубу «Копенгаген», і займав цей пост до 1997 року.

Hackaday writer [Joshua Vasquez] wrote about the mechanical difference between the Core-XY and H-Bot movements commonly used in 3D printers on his personal website. There are so many things a beginning mechanical designer can overlook when setting out to make a movement. Sometimes,in the case of these movements, they aren't readily apparent, and like finding a troublesome pattern in code; have to be shown before the mind picks them up in future designs.
[Joshua] starts by describing how each movement works. At first glance, the H-Bot movement seems simpler and more effective than the Core-XY. The Core-XY uses more belting, and some of the pulleys are out of plane with each other. However, this is done to eliminate a moment put on the frame in the H-Bot design. This moment can throw off the accuracy of the movement in unpredictable ways.
The Core-XY movement is one of our favorites. It keeps the motors stationary. It's compact, precise, repeatable, and linear. It's good to understand the mechanical reasons for this. Just like learning the SQL database calls a library has been obfuscating for you lets you write better code.
Please… those of us still using Powerbooks have difficulty reading anything of that…type.
What wrong with poke-your-eye-out San Serif.
Whoa–looks awful on mobile devices! Should be fixed now. Apologies for making everyone's eyes bleed….
You're right, It's not the best example I could have used. I've been thinking of ways to reach across the gap between coders and mechanical designers. Since I'm not going to win an award for my code anytime soon… Maybe making up code analogies isn't' the best way to do this, haha. Also, can I say that your comments on mechanical design are always on point! Really enjoy reading them.
After (closely) working with mechanical designers for a few years now. I do see a lot of similarities. Lots of it is done on guts feeling and personal preference.
Biggest difference in mechanical design is that you make damn sure that things are proper before you release anything. Updates are very expensive.
what is the mechanical equivalent of SQL injection?
1. Why not use a GT2 timing belt instead?
2. What kind of accuracy and repeatability can be expected from such a setup?
1. It is using a GT2 timing belt. It's just one out of many configurations that hold the motors stationary, and has some advantages over other styles.
2. I'd have to think a bit longer about this. My initial thought is that there is a slightly higher, but not meaningful error in this set-up vs. a dedicated belt and motor for each direction set-up. So the same accuracy and repeatability as any other timing belt set-up.
Looking at the parts list it seems that it's using an MXL belt and pulley – https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AodaAsGd6n41dEpTSzhwM2RzOVJrZlFucEJzNkxRLWc#gid=0 which is not the same as GT2.
@Abhishek, you're definitely right; they are indeed MXL, although GT2 is definitely the better timing belt to use in this application, as it's got about ten times less backlash. (Wish I knew that a few years ago….) I was actually going to post about that a bit later; stay tuned!
Basically if the belt path connecting to the carriage does not follow a straight line then the belt movement is multiplied by the cosine of the angle (a 1mm movement is no longer 1mm).
This is a common mistake in MANY repraps, where the belt path from the idler pulley through the carriage to the opposing pulley are not straight. the error is small in most cases, but grows large the closer it comes to the edge.
The coreXY acts the same as the movement mechanism you mention, it just has a longer loop and is rotated 45 degrees. The longer belt path can induce some resonance and errors that can occur with poor quality pulleys or improper bearing preload. Again these issues can occur on any other type of movement.
But obviously it does not help you write better English.
Got to give credit where it's due. Gerrit – you're picking excellent subjects and writing good articles. It's almost like the old Hackaday again!
Uhm , no , just regurgitating whats already been elsewhere on the webs for a long time.
All the old HaD articles were too though. But I'm lazy and would rather someone else trawled the internet and provided the interesting things to me. The current swathe of clickbait articles don't fall under that category.
I have been wondering about this: what is the reason galvanic mirrors and a variable focusing element are not used in laser cutters?
I have been thinking it might be because theres many usecases where one wants to have the beam orthogonal/"vertical" on the surface? so as not to get slanted edges?


Yes, in the previous post, I tried to pull a BWG. People are wiser than that. And I'm sort of predictable.
i'm assuming you know Grishdúsh?
um… is that Melilot you're referring to, Melilot Took ?
anyways.... sorry for bothering you!
i don't know her I'm all the way in australia!
oh yeah? so's your face!

Q: BLToolkit update with non IQueryable So far I was using something like this if I wanted to update table.
var myData = from t1 in db.Table1
where ...
select new { do some math here };

and then I would call
myData.Update( db.Table2, x => new Table2
{
    update columns here
}

That works great, but now I need to convert the myData query into List() so I can use that same data later in another update call.
The problem with IQueryable is that when I call the Update for the second time later in code with this "myData", it includes data which were affected between the two updates, and I want the data as they were before the first update was called.
So I need this
var myData = (from t1 in db.Table1
where ...
select new { do some math here }).ToList();

to update table using the same call as before.

A: var myData =
    from t1 in db.Table1
    where ...
    select new { do some math here };

var myDataList = myData.ToList();

myData.Update( db.Table2, x => new Table2
{
   update columns here
}

Is this what you are looking for?

Starting at the beginning in iOS developing can be quite overwhelming. My first thoughts were to just crack on with loading up Xcode and creating my first very simple app. The first hurdle I got to was that Xcode just has too many options that I don't understand. On opening it you get to create a new project, but deciding what options to select is a challenge in its self.
Apple has created a handy guide on how to begin learning to create iOS apps. The new guide goes over what you need, where to begin and what documents you need to read to get going. Currently, I am working through the Apple documents and an Objective-C for dummies book found in Week 1 and to be blunt… it's a lot of reading.
On your path of leaning, expect to be doing a lot of reading and a lot of coding to practice what you are learning. I have found that one of the keys to learning is trying to stop and understand the challenge that you just did. That could be creating a new struct, typedef or even something completely different. If you don't understand why you are doing something the way you are being taught, then step back and try look at the bigger picture of what you are doing.

Q: Result values in '? :' expression have mismatching types 'some View' and '...' I get this error when I'm trying to ternary the navigationBarItems to have various views:

Result values in '? :' expression have mismatching types 'some View' and 'ProfileImageBarButton'

@State var searchTapped: Bool = false

var body: some View {
    NavigationView {
        Text("lol")

   --> here i get the error .navigationBarItems(leading: searchTapped ? backButton : ProfileImageBarButton(showMenu: $showMenu))
        .navigationBarTitle(Text(""), displayMode: .inline)
    }.overlay(searchTextField)
}

private var backButton: some View {
    Image(systemName: "arrow.left")
        .foregroundColor(Color.blue)
        .onTapGesture {
            self.searchTapped = false
        }
}

This is ProfileImageBarButton:
struct ProfileImageBarButton: View {
    @Binding var showMenu: Bool

    var body: some View {
        Image(uiImage: UserDefaults.standard.getProfileImage()!)
            .resizable()

            .onTapGesture {
                self.showMenu.toggle()
            }
    }
}

A: The error is telling you that, in an expression:
condition ? true_result : false_result

both true_result and false_result need to have the same type.
There are multiple ways to overcome this, here are two:
.navigationBarItems(leading: searchTapped ? AnyView(backButton) : AnyView(ProfileImageBarButton(showMenu: $showMenu)))

or
.navigationBarItems(leading: barItems())

...

func barItems() -> some View {
    return Group {
        if searchTapped {
            backButton
        } else {
            ProfileImageBarButton(showMenu: $showMenu)
        }
    }
}

A: You can also use @ViewBuilder which allows you to put different views in its body:
.navigationBarItems(leading: barItems)

@ViewBuilder
var barItems: some View {
    if searchTapped {
        backButton
    } else {
        ProfileImageBarButton(showMenu: $showMenu)
    }
}

Florida's Troubled Guardian Program
Probe found guardian Rebecca Fierle billed AdventHealth nearly $4 million. Invoices show the total could be higher
By Monivette Cordeiro
Sep 17, 2019 | 1:15 PM
Rebecca Fierle improperly billed AdventHealth nearly $4 million over a decade for services she provided to their patients, according to an investigation.
An investigation into the financial relationship between former professional guardian Rebecca Fierle and AdventHealth last week produced a striking figure: The disgraced Orlando caretaker had billed close to $3.96 million over a decade, Orange County's comptroller reported, based on invoices handed over by the hospital company in response to a court order.
But that number may not tell the full story.
Invoices obtained by the Orlando Sentinel in six Volusia County guardianship cases totaling $49,900 were not included among the records AdventHealth provided to the comptroller's office — opening up the possibility that the company paid Fierle for even more patients than the 682 identified by the agency's probe.
The comptroller's report said it had reviewed invoices related to guardianship cases in six counties: Orange, Brevard, Lake, Osceola, Pinellas and Seminole.
Florida guardian Rebecca Fierle improperly billed AdventHealth nearly $4 million, report says
Former Orlando guardian Rebecca Fierle improperly billed AdventHealth nearly $4 million over a decade for services she provided to their vulnerable patients — while often also billing her incapacitated clients for the same services, according to a newly released investigation.
By Monivette Cordeiro and Jeff Weiner
"We did not get any invoices for Volusia County," Comptroller Phil Diamond said. "But we did have invoices from those other counties — that's how we determined there was activity."
In response to questions from the Sentinel, AdventHealth spokesman Bryan Malenius said the company shared invoices with the court related to its work with Fierle that were within the AdventHealth Orlando system, which covers Orange, Seminole and Osceola counties. The company's hospitals in Volusia, Flagler and Lake are in a separate division.
"The judge has told us we have complied with her request," Malenius said. "While our operations in Volusia County are part of a separate legal entity, we of course would comply with any additional request for information."
The spokesman could not immediately say how much AdventHealth had paid Fierle from all its entities or how many total patients it put under her care.
The embattled guardian is under criminal investigation after an incapacitated client, 75-year-old Steven Stryker, died at a Tampa hospital while staff were unable to perform life-saving measures due to a "do not resuscitate" order Fierle filed against his wishes and refused to remove. Revelations about Fierle's practices have embroiled the state's guardianship program, prompting the resignation of a top state official and a push to strengthen monitoring and penalties for abuses.
Fierle, who has not been charged with a crime, resigned as a guardian from all cases statewide. The guardian and her attorney did not respond to a request for comment on the comptroller's probe.
The investigation by Diamond's office found AdventHealth paid the embattled guardian at least $3.7 million between 2009 and 2019 for services she provided to the 682 patients, more than two thirds of whom were never placed into guardianship by a judge.
Rebecca Fierle (Orlando Sentinel)
Guardians, who are appointed by judges to make decisions for incapacitated people, are paid for their services through the ward's assets or by the state. Under state law, they are not allowed to have outside financial arrangements related to their work without court approval.
The comptroller's probe was based on a trove of AdventHealth documents, including 6,936 invoices from Fierle's companies. Circuit Judge Janet C. Thorpe ordered the hospital company to produce "all checks and documentations regarding payment amounts and types to Rebecca Fierle" and threatened to hold AdventHealth officials in contempt of court for failing to hand over the documents.
The investigation found Fierle was acting as a durable power of attorney, health care surrogate or health care proxy for 472 patients without court oversight and under questionable legal authority.
Wendy Kittleson, deputy director of the comptroller's audit division, confirmed the office did not receive invoices or payment records from AdventHealth for any of the six wards in Volusia County identified by the Sentinel. Kittleson also noted discrepancies in the company's records, including 900 invoices totaling $502,112 that were not provided to the court and 539 invoices totaling $307,382 that were provided to the court but not listed in AdventHealth's payment file.
Fierle's attorney handed over invoices related to the Volusia wards after Circuit Judge Margaret W. Hudson on Aug. 13 ordered the guardian to turn over "a complete accounting of all payments, from whatever source" she had received for her services after a July 29 case management conference at which Fierle resigned from all her cases.
In those six cases, Fierle's billings ranged from from $244 to almost $11,844, at a rate of $125 to $130 an hour, records obtained by the Sentinel show. The invoices were paid by AdventHealth DeLand, AdventHealth New Smyrna Beach and AdventHealth Daytona Beach, according to Fierle's attorney, Philip J. Wallace.
Fierle began billing AdventHealth for handling those patients weeks or even months before she petitioned the court to become their guardian — a pattern the comptroller's office also found during its audit. Despite not having been appointed by the court, Fierle charged AdventHealth for "shopping" on a Volusia ward's behalf, as well as making medical decisions and managing financial information, according to court records.
The comptroller's investigation found Fierle often submitted identical invoices to AdventHealth and the court — billing twice for the same services and netting three times the court-approved maximum of $65 an hour in Orange County.

Director Janicza Bravo Calls the Shots
by Stacey Yvonne
Stacey Yvonne
Stacey Yvonne is an entertainment journalist who is often found…
Auteur Indie director Janicza Bravo doesn't just want a seat at the table. She wants to design the place settings. She wants to challenge the other diners while making the table accessible and beautiful. She doesn't want a hand up. She wants objectors to get out of her way. Bravo may have had her background in the theater, but her vision was made for the screen. She has a style all of her own, and this awards season, Janicza Bravo makes good on her potential with her latest film, Zola.
In March of 2022, awards season is upon us and Zola is a contender for several Independent Spirit Awards and has also snagged 9 nominations for the Black Reel Awards. Awards season can be a conflicting time for film creators. BGN sat down with Bravo over the phone on February 18, 2022, to discuss her thoughts on awards, some of her directorial choices on Zola, and expose why it deserves to be seen as a piece of art.
Some creatives have complicated feelings about awards. Some people think it's great to be recognized for their hard work, while others believe they're playing into the "machine." Where do you fall on that spectrum?
You know, I've been making work for quite some time, and most of the work I've made has gone ignored or dismissed. I'm not really hanging my hat on this, but that said, the measure of the award, the tangible award, is you walk into a room, and something becomes easier by 5 or 10%. Do I want to wear a really cool outfit and stand in front of a bunch of people and say really smart words that make me sound really f*cking sexy? Sure, sure! But I'd also like to think that there is a breath of a career in front of me.
What keeps you grounded when considering the road-blocks?
I have to remind myself to do a gut check. Pedro Almodóvar never got a TV deal, you know? David Lynch made tons of movies that have changed my life that most people thought were freak sh*t. Rainer Fassbinder is one of the reasons I thought I could be a director and nobody ever knew who he was in Hollywood. When I can remind myself of that, it's super helpful. I'm ultimately less concerned with prizes. I just want the road to be a little easier. I want to stop auditioning in every room that I walk into.
What was the connection you felt to the story of Zola and to Aziah King?
My job beyond my job, which, yes, to direct the film, was to protect this woman. Protect Aziah King who told this story. Part of directing is to protect my actors, and make sure they feel heard and cared for.
One of the stories behind the original script, and directors is the initial draft and ideas felt exploitative. I believe it speaks volumes when you say it was a priority to take care of [King], because it's so easy to become manipulated in her position.
Absolutely! I think there's a juicy conversation to be had around what our responsibility is when we work with real people and use their life as part of our storytelling. I have a lot to gain from doing a good job. I could easily walk away when the project wrapped and say my goodbyes, but there's something transactional [in those relationships]. I felt I owed [King] and that we were forever tethered.
I can think of several examples where a director had the opposite idea and lesser success.
Listen, I'm not going to give examples because it's going to look like I'm trying to start some rap war! Don't get me wrong, we love a rap war, but it's Black History Month; who has the time?
And this Black History Month people have been trying it so I won't ask you to contribute to the messiness this time! Instead, was there a scene that you really loved in Zola?
In the whole film? I would say it's what I refer to as "@Stephanie" which is Riley Keough's retelling of the film basically. I would say it was one of my favorites only because I laughed. I generally do not laugh, like, we're making a movie, what are we laughing about? Also, there's usually always something stressful happening. But we laughed the entire time shooting her version of the story, and it was one of those moments that I thought I can't believe I'm getting away with this.
Were there any scenes or setups that presented a challenge for you? What did you do to overcome it?
I could point to any scene in the film and tell you something about it! But off the top of my head, editorially, it was the sex montage. The sex montage is ultimately about looking at how this is our filthiest moment in the movies, but it's also in the movie where you have to lay out all of the cards. We actually have to show the thing we've been talking about. How do we earn the male nudity in this film without turning off the audience – where the audience feels the film has earned it?
On the one hand, you want to take care of the audience, on the other, you want to challenge them to analyze their boundaries.
Right. There were people in the audience who are women who have done this work. I felt I had to take care of them first. And if I don't show it like it is, they're going to really feel the pain.
Where on earth did you find the girls in stuck cars videos?
Car Stuck Girls is something I've loved for a very long time. I don't remember my exact introduction to it except that it was something that my first roommate after college loved and we used to make our own version of them. We didn't have a car so we would do stuck girls and like bicycles or a cart, just really dumb, dumb sh*t. But it was a kink that immediately fascinated me and one of those kinks that makes you feel like – oh, the world is so much larger than I understand.
Would you say you have any directorial easter eggs that you put into your films? Is there anything Classic Janicza?
I think my photography. I tend to shoot in the proscenium. I really like hanging out in the wide. I'm not gonna go for the close-up, or tons of coverage. It's not that I don't like the close-up, I just like to think globally, so I'm really attracted to the juicy wide. In the theater, if you're in the audience and you're watching the performer, you don't get a close-up. There's no shot in Zola that is arbitrary. The film is littered with surprises for repeat viewers.
You can find Bravo's work on episodes in popular series like In Treatment, Them, and Atlanta. Next, she'll be directing an adaptation of Octavia Butler's Beloved. Zola is currently available to watch on Showtime or VOD.
