Prosecutors say a former Miami-Dade Water and Sewer employee took $1 million of the county's money before he was fired in a cellphone scandal. BY JACK DOLAN jdolan@MiamiHherald.com Police are seeking a former county Water and Sewer mailroom supervisor who is accused of indulging his taste for expensive German cars with $1 million stolen from taxpayers. Charles Anthony Vance, who was fired late last month for his role in a separate scandal involving millions paid by the department in unauthorized cellphone expenses, is now accused of stealing money earmarked for bulk mailing. ''The two cases are unrelated,'' said Miami-Dade County Inspector General Chris Mazzella, whose office handled the investigation. ``It's another unfortunate instance where there was a lack of sufficient oversight on some rather huge amounts of money.'' Vance could not be reached for comment.
The new switch provides a low-cost entry point chassis that uses existing OS9000 modules, delivering future-proof solutions with advanced security and QoS (quality of service) features for use in small enterprise cores, in the aggregation layer, and also in wiring closets due to its compact form factor and flexible power-over-Ethernet support. An ideal solution for the campus environment, the Alcatel OmniSwitch 9600 provides sophisticated support for future applications including video-over-IP and Gigabit Ethernet to the desktop. The Alcatel OmniSwitch 9600 platform delivers wire-rate processing for IPv4/IPv6 unicast and multicast applications making it the standard for next generation campus architectures. The OmniSwitch 9600 is a part of Alcatel's end-to-end enterprise switch family that includes stackable and modular edge switches that use the Alcatel Operating System (AOS) for security, simplified manageability, high availability, and reduced total cost of ownership. Security features of the OmniSwitch 9000 family include network access control via Alcatel Access Guardian, and malicious attack containment provided by the Alcatel OmniVista 2770 Quarantine Manager.
Mississippi's weary Gulf Coast officially entered a race last week. If it wins, thousands of residents living in cramped travel trailers for more than a year could be settling into modular houses. And the Coast would become the testing ground for new types of emergency housing. .
