Florida Matters
Bridges, buses and ferries: getting around Tampa Bay

Florida Matters

Play Episode Listen Later Apr 30, 2025 27:59


When Manatee County got rid of bus fares- ridership went up. And it's not the only place in Tampa Bay where more people started taking the bus after fares went away. Hillsborough County made its most popular bus route, from downtown Tampa to the University of South Florida, free for this year, and ridership is way up. On this episode of Florida Matters, Manatee County Transit Division Manager Kevin Hoyt explains why it makes sense to get more people on the bus, even when they're not collecting fare revenue. And, Streetsblog USA senior editor Kea Wilson talks about how other transit agencies around the US have adopted the fare-free model, and the arguments for and against removing the fare box.  Also, if you've driven the recently reopened Howard Frankland Bridge, you might have noticed it's built higher to withstand storm surge like Tampa Bay experienced during the last hurricane season. WUSF's Sky Lebron caught up with historian Rodney Kite Powell on top of the bridge, before it reopened to traffic. Hear how the original bridge, which opened in 1960, was built for a post-war population boom, much like the remodeled bridge is built to handle traffic for Tampa Bay's current population boom. And you'll get caught up on some of the latest transportation news from around the greater Tampa Bay region. Hear why the cross bay ferry is sailing for the last time, about efforts to ease traffic woes on the dreaded I-4 corridor, and how Tampa International Airport is dealing with animal problems.

City of Tampa and Hillsborough County officials will be on hand Wednesday morning as a historic marker is dedicated to Zion Cemetery. The first cemetery for Tampa's Black residents during the segregation era was sold and erased from maps and public knowledge, even though bodies were found at the site decades later. Part of the graveyard was incorporated into the Robles Park Village public housing complex. Its rediscovery in 2019 led to a campaign to uncover the area's hidden Black gravesites of the 20th century. We speak with Fred Hearns, Black History Curator at the Tampa Bay History Center, and president of the Zion Cemetery's preservation society about the site's past and future.

Day is a multifaceted entrepreneur, investor, advisor, author, and political activist with a rich background spanning nearly three decades across various sectors such as e-commerce, healthcare, blockchain/cryptocurrency, AI, and clean technology. As a current fellow at the Brownstone Institute and the Chairman/CEO of the Daylight Freedom Foundation, Day combines his industry expertise with a deep commitment to advancing freedom and individual liberty. Day's foray into political activism began in 2008, catalyzed by the detrimental impact of government regulations, including Obamacare and Dodd-Frank, on his thriving healthcare business. This experience propelled him into the heart of political and non-profit advocacy, where he has since championed the cause of liberty. Notably, Day has led a non-profit think tank, initiated the Crony Awards to spotlight government and business collusion, and significantly contributed to the Free State Project's success in New Hampshire as its Chairman, fostering a community dedicated to liberty. In the political arena, Day's influence is substantial. He has served as Chairman of the Stark360 SuperPAC, significantly contributing to the election of over 100 candidates in New Hampshire, held leadership roles within the Republican Liberty Caucus at both state and national levels, and been an active member of the Hillsborough County and Bedford Republican Committees. Day's concern over the rising threat posed by Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) inspired him to author the best-selling book, The Final Countdown: Crypto, Gold, Silver, and the People's Last Stand Against Tyranny by CBDCs. His 2024 Republican Presidential nomination campaign was a strategic effort to highlight the dangers of CBDCs, during which he engaged with numerous Congress members and influenced key political figures, including persuading Donald Trump to oppose CBDCs through discussions facilitated by Vivek Ramaswamy. His insights and activism have garnered attention from major news outlets such as The Epoch Times, Zero Hedge, Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, The New York Times, and the Boston Globe, reflecting his significant impact on public discourse.

UnitedHealthcare CEO gunned down in NYC, Trump pick for Drug Enforcement Administration withdraws, Philippians 4:6 most popular verse this year

The WorldView in 5 Minutes

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 5, 2024


It's Thursday, December 5th, A.D. 2024. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Muslim terrorist group in Syria puts Christians in grave danger Islamic militias with the Organization for the Liberation of the Levant took over Syria's second largest city of Aleppo last week. It's the latest offensive in the years-long civil war between government forces and armed rebel groups in the country. The tensions mean grave danger for Christians who live in the area. Churches are still open, but militants are removing Christmas decorations.  The Muslim terrorist group is known for brutal governance and violent persecution. Please pray for Christians in Syria, ranked 12th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most difficult to be a Christian.  1 Peter 4:12-13 says, “Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy.” UnitedHealthcare CEO gunned down in NYC In the United States, chilling video shows the moment a gunman calmly shoots down  UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, age 50, at close range on the streets of Midtown Manhattan in front of the New York Hilton Hotel on Wednesday morning, reports the New York Post. NYPD Chief of Detectives Joseph Kenny explained what happened before the shooting. KENNY: “The shooter arrived at the location on foot about five minutes prior to the victim's arrival. He stands alongside the building line as numerous other people and pedestrians pass him by. From video, we see at 6:44am the victim is walking alone towards the Hilton after exiting his hotel across the street. We believe the victim was headed to the Hilton Hotel to attend the United Health Group investors conference that was scheduled to start at 8am.” In the video, the unidentified assailant — clad in a black hoodie, black mask, black pants, gloves and wearing a gray backpack — can be seen methodically firing what appears to be a single-action handgun at the CEO, pulling back the slide with each shot. Thompson stumbles back upon the first shot, which appears to hit him in the back, briefly turning to face the shooter before falling to the sidewalk and attempting to crawl away as the gunman continues firing.  New York City Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch added this. TISCH: “At this time, every indication is that this was a premeditated, pre-planned, targeted attack.” While the shooter fled on foot and disappeared into Central Park, emergency personnel administered CPR at the scene to Thompson, before rushing him to Mount Sinai Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The shooter remains at large. TISCH: “The full investigative efforts of the New York City Police Department are well underway, and we will not rest until we identify and apprehend the shooter in this case.” UnitedHealthcare is the nation's largest health insurer. It is a division of UnitedHealth Group, the fourth-largest public company in America behind Walmart, Amazon, and Apple. Thompson's wife, Paulette, told NBC News that he had been receiving threats perhaps over a lack of health care coverage. Plus, another wrinkle in the story, is that Thompson was one of several senior executives at UnitedHealthcare under investigation by the Department of Justice. On February 16th, he exercised stock options and sold shares worth $15.1 million, less than two weeks before news of the federal antitrust probe went public, according to a Crain's New York Business report from April. Trump pick for Drug Enforcement Administration withdraws On Tuesday, Chad Chronister, President-elect Donald Trump's selection to lead the Drug Enforcement Administration, said that he would withdraw from consideration, reports NBC News. Chronister, who is the sheriff in Hillsborough County, Florida, said he would turn down Trump's planned nomination to be the next DEA administrator just three days after Trump announced it. He is the second of Trump's administration picks to take his name out of the running, after former Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz of Florida dropped his bid to become attorney general last month. Chronister ran into a series of hurdles from Trump's political base because of how he handled the coronavirus pandemic — particularly his decision in 2020 to arrest Tampa Pastor Ronald Howard-Browne for simply holding a church service. Pro-life ruling upholds ban on abortion trafficking A federal appeals court upheld an Idaho law on Monday that bans abortion trafficking, reports the Idaho Capital Sun.  The 2023 law protects pregnant minors from being transported for an abortion without their parents' knowledge. The law is in addition to a 2022 law that bans nearly all abortions.  Linda Thomas, Director of Community Outreach, told LifeNews, “With abortions virtually banned in Idaho, Planned Parenthood and other organizations are actively coaching and luring women across state lines for abortions. This is abortion trafficking.” Transgender case heard at Supreme Court The U.S. Supreme Court heard arguments in a major transgender case yesterday. The Biden administration is challenging a Tennessee law that protects children from drugs and operations meant to enable them to pretend to be the opposite sex. The conservative majority on the court appeared supportive of the law during the hearing.  However, a decision isn't expected for months. The ruling could affect similar measures in 25 other states.  Philippians 4:6 most popular verse this year And finally, the Bible app YouVersion reports that more people engaged with the Bible this year in record numbers. The most popular verse of the year was Philippians 4:6. It says, “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.” Bible engagement grew significantly in Central Africa, Eastern Africa, and Latin America. One of YouVersion's partners in the app is 24-7 Prayer International. Carla Harding noted, “Throughout 2024, we have seen a rise in the number of people dedicating themselves to night and day prayer in different nations around the world. Our hope is that through continual prayer, the global church would be ignited in the presence of God and carry His love with greater compassion and power to the communities around them.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Thursday, December 5th, in the year of our Lord 2024. Subscribe by Amazon Music or by iTunes or email to our unique Christian newscast at www.TheWorldview.com.

Dr. Casey Lynn, DMD MS SmileLYNN Pediatric Dentistry www.smilelynndental.com 813-692-5645 smilelynndental@gmail.com 122 Harbor Village Lane, Apollo Beach, FL 33572 /// In this episode of *Osprey Observer TV*, host Marie Gilmore interviews Dr. Casey Lynn, a board-certified pediatric dentist and founder of SmileLynn Pediatric Dentistry in Apollo Beach, Florida. Dr. Lynn, who has an impressive background in dentistry with degrees from several Florida institutions, discusses his journey in education and his commitment to giving back to the community where he grew up. Marie begins the episode by highlighting Dr. Lynn's dedication to the field, noting how his education and experiences across Florida have culminated in building a successful local practice. Dr. Lynn shares the story behind SmileLynn, explaining that his goal is to offer a unique, patient-centered approach to pediatric dentistry, where children feel comfortable and have a positive dental experience from a young age. His practice aims to establish a "dental home" for children, focusing on preventative care, education, and minimally invasive techniques to make visiting the dentist fun and stress-free. Dr. Lynn emphasizes the importance of teaching good oral hygiene early on, as well as addressing common misconceptions about food-related causes of cavities. He highlights how snacks like goldfish can contribute to dental decay and explains the importance of proper dietary choices in maintaining children's oral health. One standout feature of SmileLynn Pediatric Dentistry is its specialized Tongue Tie Clinic, which has become a labor of love for Dr. Lynn. He explains how tongue ties can affect feeding and speech development in infants and children. By offering expert treatment for tongue ties, Dr. Lynn and his team are able to help families improve their children's feeding and speech outcomes. This service has gained attention from local parents who have benefited directly from the clinic's expertise. Marie expresses her admiration for Dr. Lynn's passion and commitment to providing these essential services in a growing community. As SmileLynn celebrates its six-year anniversary, Dr. Lynn is excited about continuing to expand and serve more families in the region. To get in touch with SmileLynn Pediatric Dentistry, parents can visit the website at SmileLynnDental.com or call (813) 591-3052. The episode concludes with Marie thanking Dr. Lynn for his dedication to pediatric dentistry and the positive impact he's making on local families.Website: http://ospreyobserver.com https://www.facebook.com/OspreyObserverFans/ https://www.instagram.com/ospreyobserver/https://twitter.com/ospreyobserver

Operation BBQ Relief (OBR), a nonprofit organization started by competitive barbecue chefs, steps up to meet that need, providing hot, comforting meals to people affected by natural disasters. The story of OBR began in 2011 after a massive tornado hit Joplin, Missouri. Founders, including co-founder Will Cleaver, saw an opportunity to put their skills to work, showing up with equipment and a small team of volunteers. They initially planned to serve a few thousand meals but ended up distributing over 120,000 meals in just 12 days, Cleaver recalls. This experience laid the foundation for an organization that today operates on a national scale, with a network of volunteers and partners across the country. From that first deployment, OBR has grown dramatically, having served 12 million meals in the years since. In a recent deployment in Florida, following Hurricane Melton, OBR hit the milestone of delivering 1 million meals to disaster survivors in just two weeks. With massive smokers that can cook up to 160 pork shoulders at once, OBR operates on a scale unimaginable to most, using commercial-grade equipment and an efficient, organized setup to serve up to 15,000 meals a day. "To hand someone a hot barbecue meal and see the smile on their face—it's incredibly rewarding," Cleaver shared in a recent interview on the Osprey Observer TV podcast. "Our volunteers don't just show up; they're self-sufficient, coming in with everything needed to be a support, not a burden, to the local community.” The logistical operation behind these meals is as impressive as the numbers. Volunteers can order meals for relief workers or distribution, with a simple, organized pickup process in place. Meals are ordered by quantity, coordinated, and picked up at central locations for quick, easy distribution to those who need them most. This process, combined with the team's preparation ahead of storms, enables them to provide critical, timely relief. Cleaver urges the public to get involved, whether by signing up as a volunteer, making donations, or even simply sharing their story. OBR relies heavily on financial support and partnerships, which allow them to secure and prepare meals on a large scale. "Every share, every donation, helps us reach more people in need," Cleaver says, emphasizing the power of community in making OBR's mission possible. To learn more about OBR's work and get involved, check out the full interview on the Osprey Observer TV podcast on YouTube and other major podcast platforms. Whether through donations, volunteer work, or simply helping spread the word, every contribution helps OBR continue its mission of feeding those in need when disaster strikes.Website: http://ospreyobserver.com https://www.facebook.com/OspreyObserverFans/ https://www.instagram.com/ospreyobserver/https://twitter.com/ospreyobserver

Known for assisting families facing critical illnesses and life-altering events, the nonprofit redirected its efforts to provide immediate relief for hurricane survivors, answering urgent calls for help in the Brandon and Riverview areas. According to Liz Brewer, president of the Angel Foundation, the group acted quickly to meet the community's needs. “I literally said a prayer and asked, ‘What can we do in this community?'” Brewer said on a recent episode of the Osprey Observer TV podcast. Within 24 hours, her team organized a relief event at The Regent in Riverview, where they distributed hot meals, meal kits, cleanup supplies, and even disaster relief assistance, working with partners such as Operation BBQ Relief, Feeding Tampa Bay, and local organizations. The foundation's relief efforts offered more than just food; they provided a space where residents could access critical supplies, including clothes, gift cards, and personal essentials. “The families that came in had literally lost everything,” Brewer said. In just one day, volunteers gave out more than 500 hot meals and distributed essentials that had been in scarce supply in the aftermath of the storms. As Brewer emphasized, the foundation is committed to easing the long-term recovery process. “We don't go through a lot of red tape,” she explained. “We want to get the gift cards and resources into the hands of these families as quickly as possible.” In addition to immediate aid, the Angel Foundation aims to support those facing financial hardships as they continue to rebuild. The Angel Foundation relies heavily on community support. Volunteers and donations are essential for continuing its work, Brewer noted. "People can visit our website, AngelFoundationFL.com, to learn how to get involved,” she added, encouraging the community to donate or sign up as volunteers. For a closer look at how the Angel Foundation is impacting lives and to learn how to help, watch the full interview with Liz Brewer on the Osprey Observer TV podcast on YouTube and other major platforms.Website: http://ospreyobserver.com https://www.facebook.com/OspreyObserverFans/ https://www.instagram.com/ospreyobserver/https://twitter.com/ospreyobserver

It's that time again - Time for another episode of the WGI Unleashed Podcast! Join us as we sit down with Mike Mills, WGI's VP of Stormwater Resources, for an inspiring conversation about his life and engineering journey. Mike's story is a tale of determination, gratitude, and a steadfast commitment to making a difference, from his unique upbringing and early career challenges to his now impactful projects and passions. Growing Up with a Global Perspective Born in Virginia to a Navy father, Mike spent a significant portion of his early years in Japan on an American Naval base. Mike's father met his mother abroad, sparking a bond that shaped a childhood rich with international experiences which Mike still treasures to this day. Living between Japan and the U.S. until he was 16, Mike credits his early international exposure with giving him a valuable perspective that continues to fuel his gratitude and open-minded outlook on life today. Having moved to Orlando during high school, however, he experienced a significant culture shock. Yet, this transition unknowingly marked the start of his journey into the world of civil engineering. From Architecture Dreams to Civil Engineering Realities Initially set on becoming an architect or archaeologist, Mike was led to civil engineering when his first-choice schools appeared to no longer be an option. Ultimately electing to attend the University of Central Florida, Mike saw engineering as a way to design the spaces surrounding buildings if he couldn't design the buildings themselves. With guidance from state-renowned professors, Mike's passion for land development and stormwater management grew, cementing his career path in the AEC industry. Rising Through the Ranks with Determination Mike's career began in land development at a company where technology was just beginning to enter the scene—so much so that he was tasked with exploring the company's first computer and seeking out the industry's new and innovative software and technologies. This early exposure to cutting-edge tools such as ICPR, now known as StormWise, became a defining moment. Mike credits this experience and his connection with Pete Singhofen, ICPR's creator and now a WGI colleague, as pivotal influences on his career. After immense success with his first job in Orlando, Mike's journey led him to a stormwater management role in Tampa, leading to multiple company acquisitions and, ultimately, the founding of his very own consulting firm in 1999 - And after 21 successful years of acting as his own boss, Mike's firm was acquired, and his longtime connections with WGI leaders, including Pete Singhofen, brought him to WGI in 2024. A Legacy of Diverse and Impactful Work Mike's extensive work spans public and private projects, from collaborations with some of Tampa's favorite brands such as Publix and Outback Steakhouse to meaningful contributions to wetland mitigation, including Hillsborough County's first-ever wetland mitigation permit. His dedication and experience also recently contributed to WGI's substantial win on the Turnpike & Sawgrass Interchange project—a major milestone he credits to WGI's exceptional proposal and project management teams. Life Beyond the Office Beyond the workplace, Mike finds joy in Sunday morning bike rides to brunch with his wife and friends, playing guitar and bass, practicing yoga, and running. And in recent, exciting news, Mike is now proud to call himself a grandfather as he welcomes in his first grandchild! Mike's dedication to work-life balance and his love for spending time outdoors reflect his commitment to both personal well-being and professional growth. Mike is also deeply committed to philanthropy, particularly through Operation Christmas Child with Samaritan's Purse - with his leadership and empathy helping to bring joy and hope to children around the world during the holiday season.

Hey friend,  Ok so you decided to finally get rid of all those clothes that no longer fit, are no longer in style (or your style), or you've just never worn. You have a friend or two that said selling your clothes or consigning them is the way to go! But you have never done either. You want to try selling your clothes, but is it really worth your time? Today I am breaking down: - The often overlooked or misunderstood process in bringing your clothes from closet to sold. - The selling process for Facebook, Poshmark and consigning. - 4 other options to consider instead of selling. Take the guessing out of if it is worth the money, time and energy. Plus gain a clear visual for where your clothes will live their next adventure.  Donate to OASIS foundation to help support the teens and young adults effected by Hurricane Helene in Hillsborough County, Florida. 3 three wishlists available online (Amazon, Target, and Walmart), and those who shop from them can send their donations directly to OASIS. You can find the wishlists here: https://www.oasisopportunities.org/oasis-student-wishlists Right now, their greatest need is clothing for kids sized 12 and up (all the way to 20). Summer clothes are highly requested as they are still having most days in the 90s. They also welcome like-new clothes, and those can be shipped to them at: Gary Adult High School 5101 N. 40th Street Tampa, FL 33610 Proverbs 22:9 - He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed; for he giveth of his bread to the poor.
