Hundreds of cans of Cafe Bustelo wash up on Florida beach

Thousands of cans and vacuum packed bricks of Cafe Bustelo brand coffee have washed up on the beaches of Indialantic, Fla.


December 9, 2015

INDIALANTIC, Fla. — Hundreds of sealed coffee cans and vacuum-packed coffee bricks have washed ashore along Florida’s Space Coast and officials believe they may be from containers that fell off a barge last weekend.

Florida Today reports that the yellow-and-red packages of Cafe Bustelo dotted the beach Tuesday in Indialantic, where delighted beach combers were scooping them up, and stuffing them into bags.

Anna Maria ranked third among U.S. islands – Charles Schelle Bradenton Herald

Anna Maria ranked third among U.S. islands – Charles Schelle Bradenton Herald

Gr8 article on Anna Maria ranked third among U.S. islands by @ImYourChuck http://www.bradenton.com/2014/02/20/5002473/anna-maria-ranked-third-among.html

BY CHARLES SCHELLE February 20, 2014


ANNA MARIA ISLAND -- TripAdvisor has named Anna Maria Island the No. 3 island in the United States, up a spot from last year's No. 4 ranking.

The rating is based on the second annual Traveler's Choice Island awards from the website that compiles ratings and recommendations from travelers.

The TripAdvisor ranking is incredibly important to tourism in Anna Maria, notes Elliott Falcione, executive director for the Bradenton Area Convention and Visitors Bureau.

"TripAdvisor is really our biggest critic when it comes to visitation," Falcione said. "For them to rank Anna Maria with its character and Old Florida environment, it shows once again it's one of the top places to visit in the United States."


According to a TripAdvisor.com site poll, 72 percent of U.S. respondents plan on visiting an island in 2014. Marco Island topped the list, with Chincoteague Island, Va., coming in second. Key West was the only other Florida island to make the list at No. 10.


Top 10 Islands in the U.S.: 1. Marco Island, Florida 2. Chincoteague Island, Virginia 3. Anna Maria Island, Florida 4. San Juan Island, Washington 5. Maui, Hawaii 6. Kauai, Hawaii 7. Island of Hawaii, Hawaii 8. Nantucket, Massachusetts 9. Hilton Head, South Carolina 10. Key West, Florida

Beginning of a new era: The St. Petersburg Times becomes the Tampa Bay Times

Beginning of a new era: The St. Petersburg Times becomes the Tampa Bay Times | TV shows, TV news, media issues: The Feed | Tampa Bay Times:

Eric Deggans -


"JANUARY 01, 2012

Beginning of a new era: The St. Petersburg Times becomes the Tampa Bay Times
Sometimes, the best thing you can say about the end of an era, it that is also marks the start of a new one.


I will certainly admit twinges of odd feelings as the newspaper went about the business of officially changing its name from the St. Petersburg Times to the Tampa Bay Times -- a transition which became official on the front page today. We had an internal sale of promotional items with the old logos last month which felt a bit like a wake, and the day the signs were replaced on our downtown headquarters, you felt the sense of something momentous clicking into place."

St. Petersburg Times changing name to Tampa Bay Times on Jan. 1



St. Petersburg Times evolves into Tampa Bay Times


"A letter to readers


Since I started here as a reporter in 1978, I have answered my phone with some version of “St. Pete Times.” I will need to learn a new habit.


On Sunday, Jan. 1, we changed our name to the Tampa Bay Times. The new name reflects the growth of our newspaper and our vision for this region.


This change was a long time coming. For decades, the Times has been reaching north and east from St. Petersburg. Nearly 25 years ago, we launched our Tampa edition; on a typical Sunday, it routinely sells more than 100,000 copies. By a wide margin, the Times is Florida's favorite newspaper.


With that success, our name no longer fit the newspaper or the audience we serve. Three-fourths of Times readers live outside St. Petersburg.

Fishing stocks saw more protection the past year and other stories from Keys Net - Weekly Newsletter




Fishing stocks saw more protection the past year and other stories from Keys Net - Weekly Newsletter

  • Bonefish and four species of sharks got a break in 2011. For that matter, so did commercial fishermen on several key issues.

  • The Monroe County School District learned in 2011 to live with a lot less, cutting more than $9 million in expenses largely by slashing teacher pay and putting off a number of planned initiatives.

    And based on the fiscal outlook for the coming year, the lean times are far from over -- administrators are already projecting at least a $4 million shortfall for the fiscal year that starts July 1.

  • The staff of Florida Keys Community College rallied in 2011, overcoming financial woes and the shuffling of key administrative staff while completing the arduous process of re-accreditation and welcoming students into a new 100-bed dormitory.
