My Husband and I took the pups to the Shrimp and Seafood Festival on Flagler Avenue and what an adventure it was, not only for Miakoda and Walela, but to the many people who had saw these two beautiful Wolf Dogs for the first time.
With children back in school, recent reduction in crossing guards sets dangerous precedent

Taxpayers thrown under the bus for benefit of the Anglers Club
City Commissioner Judy Reiker threw the taxpayers under the bus with her vote to keep the Anglers Club lease in place. I also cringed when she said "A deal is a deal is a deal." I voted for Reiker and so did my husband. I will make sure she is never re-elected!

NSBNEWS.net has posted blogger Palmer Wilson's take on the issue here on the home page as well as his customary spot on the Opinion page because ogf the importance of the issue. NSBNEWS.net has not taken a stand on the issue either way.
Well I see it is August and time for the City Commission to sneak things through on a packed agenda when most of the citizens are on vacation or just out of town. If you wade halfway through the 417 pages of the Aug. 10 agenda you will find a ridiculously low-ball offer from the Angler’s Club to buy the property that has been the center of debate for over 18 months.
No healthy choice for women in a world of terrified little men
It’s a stupid woman, indeed, who doesn’t recognize she’s being raped. And that’s
