TALLAHASSEE - The percentage of working people without health insurance in Florida increased over the past five years, mostly because they couldn't afford rising premiums, a new state study has found. Nearly 20 percent of the state's working age population is without health insurance, compared to about 17 percent five years ago, according to a study by the state Agency for Health Care Administration. Of those, more than half went without insurance for a year or more, and 63 percent blamed unaffordable premiums.

By LISA GREENE, Times Staff Writer Published November 9, 2004 Thirteen years ago, Dr. Manuel Alvarado chose Leesburg as the place he would deliver babies. He liked its quiet streets and small-town charm. He was one of 10 obstetricians in the area. Now there are just five. The departed include Alvarado's recent partner, who left because he couldn't afford malpractice insurance. Alvarado can't either. He's practicing without, sending high-risk patients to other cities and wondering whether he should leave, too. So the study published in a national journal Monday was no surprise to him. A survey of 781 doctors in rural Florida found that more than half have cut back on procedures vital to every town, from delivering babies to staffing emergency rooms. Most of them cited rising malpractice premiums as a key reason for the cutbacks.

Radio programs for the week of 21 August 2000 (fe00821 - fe00825) For more information: Ryan Jensen, Ph.D., Indiana State University faculty information University of Florida Extension An abundance of leafy trees like the Live Oak along tougher municipal regulations on tree removal and greater attention to its urban forest, appear to help reduce Gainesville residents' electric consumption. Made in the shade I'm Kevin Pierce with the Florida Environment. It's a reasonable assumption that better shade in your yard would help keep you cooler. But new research takes that assumption a step farther, saying that a city's better regulation of trees helps keep a community's electricity bills lower. Ryan Jensen is a geography researcher who studied the tree canopies in Gainesville and Ocala (Ryan Jensen, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Department of Geography, Indiana State University)... "What this particular study did is that it quantified the canopy cover in Gainesville and Ocala, Florida using the artificial neural networks and remote sensing imagery, and then correlated those canopy-cover estimates with average energy consumption per household in the two cities." Although his research was really about how to measure the density of a tree canopy, he found that where it was denser, electricity consumption was lower.

DELIVERABLE TWO RECOMMENDATIONS TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE ACCOUNTABILITY IF VOTERS EXTEND THE ONE-CENT LOCAL OPTION SALES SURTAX Deliverable One documents that both substantial efforts/achievements and shortcomings/areas to improve are apparent in the preparation for the 1989 referendum, presentation of the one-cent sales tax to Leon County voters, and stewardship of tax revenues over the past decade Florida TaxWatch recommends the following Performance and Accountability Improvement Plan that the Leon County and Tallahassee City Commissions should evaluate, refine and commit to prior to presenting the November 2000 ballot referendum. While it would have been preferable to include some of these provisions such as annual oversight by a citizens advisory committee in the referendum, it is essential that they be adopted by Ordinance or Resolution. Additionally, relevant parts of the Plan should be amended into the County's 1989 Ordinance and the City's 1989 Resolution for the remaining four years of the current sales tax. These two actions will demonstrate good faith to the community and help increase voter confidence that the County and City Commissions accept responsibility for past shortcomings, and are taking actions to assure improved accountable performance in the future. Two further steps to promote good stewardship and prudent financial and operational planning for expenditure of proposed sales tax extension revenues are (1) to develop contingency plans with alternative scenarios and options for dealing with currently unforeseen but possible

As provided in the contract with the Leon County Commission and Tallahassee City Commission, the study consists of three Deliverables: a performance-based "report card" on stewardship of tax revenues since 1989; recommendations to improve performance and accountability if voters extend the tax beyond November 30, 2004; and economic impact analysis for Leon County-Tallahassee of extending and not extending the tax. This study is not designed to support or oppose the November 2000 ballot referendum. Rather, it is designed to provide accurate and meaningful information to Commissioners and Leon County-Tallahassee voters so the voters will have a more meaningful, relevant and accurate assessment before making this monumental decision that will affect the content and character of our community for the next 20 years.

The northern boundary of Monroe County is about 32 miles south of Miami. The Florida mainland will be excluded except for the hurricane evacuation route to the Florida Turnpike. The "Florida Keys" formally consists of 113 miles of low-lying islands with a combined mass of approximately 100 square miles. The study area boundary found below the mean high water mark follows that of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary boundaries. U.S. Highway 1 provides a solitary mainland connection, complete with bridges, that join this chain of islands arcing southwesterly toward Cuba and the Gulf of Mexico. Mile markers begin with in Key West and end with 113 south of Florida City at the county line. Florida Bay and the Gulf of Mexico lie to the north and northwest of the Keys, respectively.

80. "Creative Class War" By Richard Florida We can t hold scientific meetings here in the United States anymore But it s not as if the Clevelands and Kansas cities didn t advance at all. http://www.washingtonmonthly.com/features/2004/0401.florida.html

Respond to this Article January/February 2004 Creative Class War How the GOP's anti-elitism could ruin America's economy. By Richard Florida Last March, I had the opportunity to meet Peter Jackson, director of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, at his film complex in lush, green, otherworldly-looking Wellington, New Zealand. Jackson has done something unlikely in Wellington, an exciting, cosmopolitan city of 900,000, but not one previously considered a world cultural capital. He has built a permanent facility there, perhaps the world's most sophisticated filmmaking complex. He did it in New Zealand concertedly and by design. Jackson, a Wellington native, realized what many American cities discovered during the '90s: Paradigm-busting creative industries could single-handedly change the ways cities flourish and drive dynamic, widespread economic change. It took Jackson and his partners a while to raise the resources, but they purchased an abandoned paint factory that, in a singular example of adaptive reuse, emerged as the studio responsible for the most breathtaking trilogy of films ever made. He realized, he told me, that with the allure of the Rings trilogy, he could attract a diversely creative array of talent from all over the world to New Zealand; the best cinematographers, costume designers, sound technicians, computer graphic artists, model builders, editors, and animators.
