RIP: Imam Mohammad Sultan Abu Hasaan
An Islamic leader in the Tampa Bay region for nearly three decades, was known for building bridges to the non-Muslim community.
"My father spoke very little. He let his actions speak,'' said his oldest son, Hassan Sultan. "He was with the poor, the rich, the white and the black. … He wanted unity and closeness and serving God more than anything else.''

Diane Roberts: Nature has declared war on Florida
Tourist Beware! The streets of Miami and Fort Lauderdale flood on a distressingly regular basis; the drinking water in Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties is getting salty; mosquitoes infect you with Zika; toxic algae in our rivers, lakes and seas will give you a hideous rash, attack your nervous system, and impair your liver. here

Nature has declared war on Florida. Thanks, Rick Scott.

Fighting the Zika virus has become a top priority for Gov. Rick Scott, but the state’s refusal to expand Medicaid coupled with his record of cutting money for county health departments, health clinics and programs for special-needs Floridians has started to complicate his message that the federal government is failing the state in addressing the potential crisis. here
