"We must come together to find solutions to clean up our state waterways and protect them for future generations."
Oil drilling, algal blooms and manatee deaths were all tackled at a Florida Congressional Delegation meeting in Washington, D.C. on Wednesday. With U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Sarasota, co-chairing the bipartisan meeting, he focused on a number of water issues threatening the region.
“We must come together to find solutions to clean up our state waterways and protect them for future generations,” Buchanan told colleagues.
Another high-profile leader from the Sarasota area, Mote Marine Laboratory President and CEO Michael Crosby, also attended the meeting as an expert witness. The scientific leader urged the Delegation to support resources for science-based seagrass restoration projects. That will help address a surge in manatee deaths this year threatening the fragile sea cow population. Through Oct. 29, Florida has recorded 988 manatee deaths this calendar year, shattering previous mortality records.
He supported efforts by members of the delegation to increase Florida’s dedicated funding for water quality projects. “We really do have a desperate need to provide resources to deal with point source and non-point source pollution,” he said. That will help address red tide, which has threatened Florida’s ecology and economy.
Buchanan called the meeting with U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Sunrise. As a South Florida congresswoman, she stressed the need with Army Corps of Engineers leadership to prioritize Everglades restoration once an infrastructure bill emerges from Congress.
There’s some tension right now about how the Army Corps will manage water discharges from Lake Okeechobee. U.S. Rep. Greg Steube, R-Sarasota, could not attend the meeting but sent his own message regarding a plan under consideration that would lower Lake levels. He said that “would have significant detrimental effects for millions of Floridians, especially those in Lakeside and agriculture communities. The Congressman looks forward to working with colleagues to find a solution that benefits all stakeholders.”
Both delegation co-chairs voiced opposition to any expansion of offshore drilling off the Florida coast. Buchanan noted that when he arrived in Congress shortly after his initial 2006 election, there was a push to allow drilling as close as three miles off the Florida shore in the Gulf of Mexico. That seemed to dissipate following the Deepwater Horizon oil rig disaster in 2010. Since then, the House has three times voted for a long-term ban on drilling off Florida’s coast.
“Florida’s oceans and pristine waterways are essential to our state’s economy and way of life,” Buchanan said. “I appreciate our distinguished panelists for their participation and thoughtful insight into water quality issues and for their suggestions about how we can work together as a delegation to combat some of the challenges we’re facing.”

When picking a nail salon, you want a place that cares about your nails AND your health. Maybe even the earth too. PAINT Nail Bar cares about all. Utilizing vegan, clean polish that is free of toxins, PAINT emphasizes the “strength and integrity” of your natural nail.
First off, what does it really mean for a nail polish to be non-toxic?
Nail polishes at PAINT are either labeled “5-7-9 Free”, but for the average nail salon goer, like myself, it’s not obvious what this means. When nail polish is labeled “9- or 5- Free” it means it’s free of that number of toxic agents/chemicals such as Toluene, Camphor, DBP (dibutyl phthalate) and Formaldehyde (formaldehyde is seriously bad for your nails and can even cause allergic reactions). The higher the number, the better, at PAINT Nail, where technicians reduce the risk of compromising health by exclusively choosing clean product lines.
Of those lacquers, ZOYA was one of the first polishes to remove toxic ingredients from its long-lasting formulations and maintain its focus on health and well-being—a smart choice for women with allergies, skin sensitivities or who may be pregnant. SMITH & CULT is a 5-Free formula to also look for, with fun fall colors to choose from such as “Bite Your Kiss” and “Bang The Dream”. For those needing gel, go with BIOSEAWEED—odorless, dustless, safe for all ages and expecting mothers, as it does not “stain, weaken or dehydrate the natural nail”. Meanwhile, MADAM GLAM offers all the “free” components—cruelty-free, 9-Free and gluten-free gel—making it an easy choice for those health- and planet-conscious. Plus, no UV lamps are used for gel manicures, only LED at PAINT.
And, if you're looking for natural skincare to match your nails, PRIMERS is the salon’s newly-launched, proprietary line of active plant-based products of certified organic ingredients—sans parabens, phthalates, mineral oil, formaldehyde, sulphates, GMOs, silicone and artificial colors. So once you’ve got those nails painted and dried pretty, rub on their “A Show of Hands” hand repair cream and “Hey Cutie” cuticle treatment oil. Coming clean never felt, or looked, so good.

Rumble is excited to announce that it has signed a lease for property in Longboat Key, FL and estimates it will invest upwards of $50 million in the state over the next several years. Rumble is one of the most respected independent and privately-owned companies in the online video-sharing platform industry and has more than of 40 million monthly average users as of August this year. Moving to Sarasota County provides exactly the right environment for Rumble to continue building its international brand as an innovative company focused on providing cutting-edge technology for its users and content creators.
"Moving to Longboat Key is a win-win for Rumble and the Sarasota community," said Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski. "Sarasota County is growing rapidly, and we are excited to be part of the growth. We plan to fill 20-25 new positions in Florida immediately for our U.S. headquarters, with many more planned for the future. This move positions us to continue providing a platform to content creators without the threats from big tech monopolies. We are excited to invest in Florida in the coming years while we continue to grow Rumble.”
State officials, including Gov. Ron DeSantis, have acknowledged the importance of the platform by joining Rumble, and are enthusiastic about Rumble's move to the Sarasota area. Florida has one of the best business climates in the nation and a growing talent pool. It is no surprise that the state has quickly become a destination for vibrant corporations. “We are thrilled to welcome Rumble to Florida, and we support its mission to promote free expression and stand up to Big Tech censorship,” said Governor Ron DeSantis. “Over the past year, we have seen businesses flock to Florida from across the country because, as long as I am Governor, our state will be free and built for opportunity. We wish Rumble all the best in their endeavors in Florida, and we look forward to watching their success.”
Rumble's discussions with local officials and stakeholders led the company to choose Sarasota County because of the area's friendly business climate; its proximity to Tampa, one of the fastest-growing tech cities in America; and the potential for further development. The Economic Development Corporation of Sarasota County and Enterprise Florida both played a key role in bringing Rumble to Sarasota.

The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art announced they have been selected as the recipient of a $1,500,000 grant from the Wyncote Foundation, at the recommendation of Frederick R. Haas and Rafael Gomez. The grant will be used for the restoration of the Ringling’s Aeolian Organ Opus 1559 (1924). The Aeolian organ, prominently displayed in the grand court of the Ca’d’Zan mansion, was used by John and Mable Ringling to provide background music during their intimate dinner parties. Mable Ringling was famous for her large garden parties and musicales featuring guest artists who came from New York, Boston and Tampa to play the organ.
“The pipe organ is an important cultural icon and served as the heart of the Ca’d’Zan” said Steven High, The Ringling’s Executive Director,” After restoration, it will provide a significant addition to the visitor’s experience, creating an auditory component to complement the visual experience. We are grateful to the Wyncote Foundation for their generous grant and look forward to once again filling this incredible space with music.”
The Ringling has been fundraising for this project over the last several years, raising nearly $245,000 from generous local donors. These gifts will be combined with the grant to move forward on the much-anticipated restoration of the organ. Parsons Pipe Organ Builders of Canandaigua, NY has been selected to perform the restoration work. Parsons has specific expertise in the restoration of historic residential organs. Parsons Organ maintains the organs of the Eastman School of Music and recently installed the organ in the George Eastman House Museum. The Ringling work is expected to take over two years and the Ringling’s organ will be shipped to New York for the majority of the restoration.

For 16 years now, All Faiths Food Bank has worked to brighten the holidays for those who are struggling to put food on the table. For Sarasota and DeSoto County residents and those who are already clients of the food bank, All Faiths will offer numerous distributions in an effort to take empty plates and turn them into “ThankFULL tummies and hearts” this holiday season. Funds from the ongoing “ThankFULL” campaign will enable All Faiths to distribute more than 12,500 turkeys and sides – the largest number ever – in advance of Thanksgiving this year. With the financial impacts of the pandemic continuing, too many community members who were already at risk are struggling to put food on the table. To help All Faiths respond to the need, The Bay Park Conservancy and Van Wezel Performing Arts Hall will, once again, host the kick-off for this year’s turkey distribution effort.
On November 6, frozen turkeys and side dishes will be distributed at Van Wezel starting at 9:00am and continuing as long as supplies last. Another distribution in central Sarasota will be held at Ed Smith Stadium on November 18, 4:00pm - 6:00pm. Over the next several weeks, additional turkey distributions will take place through All Faiths’ partner agencies, including school pantries, youth-serving nonprofits, and mobile pantry sites. Proof of Sarasota or DeSoto County residency is required. The funds for the turkey distributions are being raised through generous gifts to the ThankFULL campaign as well as through the generous support of the Kathleen K. Catlin Foundation of the Community Foundation of Sarasota County, which contributed $50,000. The goal of the ThankFULL campaign is to raise enough money to provide 3.2 million meals through the end of the year for families who are facing hunger.

Selby Gardens’ annual Orchid Show, from October 9 to November 28, brings together two of Sarasota, Florida’s most renowned legacies —orchids and the circus.

Pairing astonishing air plants with amazing aerial acts enables a fascinating exploration of the intersection of nature and entertainment. The show is deeply rooted in Selby Gardens’ status as possessing the world’s best scientifically documented collection of orchids.

The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art is pleased to welcome Hard Bodies: Contemporary Japanese Lacquer Sculpture. The exhibition will run Oct. 31, 2021 – Jan. 23, 2022, in the museum’s Searing Wing. Since Neolithic times, craftspeople across East Asia have used the sap of the lacquer tree (Toxicodendron vernicifluum) to coat and bond together wood, bamboo, textiles, and ceramics to make articles for daily and ritual use. The natural polymer refined from the sap forms a durable, waterproof surface that protects and beautifies. Lacquerware was — and continues to be — prized for its luster, which artists learned to accentuate over the centuries with inlaid gold, silver, mother-of-pearl and other precious materials. However, lacquer is not an easy material to work with. Years of technical training are necessary to master the medium. Nonetheless, lacquer continues to attract young artists who are undeterred by these rigors and continue to expand its’ possibilities. Hard Bodies: Contemporary Japanese Lacquer Sculpture will present over 30 works by 16 artists. Hard Bodies is the first — and to date, only — survey exhibition of contemporary Japanese lacquer sculpture in the United States.

Duty Free will have an in-person screening and local panel discussion on Tuesday, November 9, 7pm and a FREE Virtual Screening November 7 – November 10. Rebecca worked every day of her life as a hotel housekeeper to give her two sons, Sian-Pierre and Gabriel, every opportunity life could afford. When it was time for Sian-Pierre to go to college, she even cashed out her 401K to give him the best education possible. But when she was suddenly fired from her job at 75, Rebecca was left with nothing: no savings, no safety net, and no future job prospects. Now, Sian-Pierre is giving her back the life she sacrificed, and helping her to reclaim her future, one bucket-list adventure at a time. Ageism and Financial Insecurity in America are pervasive. Older folks are invisible in their communities, workplaces, and, sometimes, within their own families. An estimated 25 million won’t have enough money to get through retirement age. Duty Free examines ageism, the care crisis, and economic insecurity in America. Who will care for and support our moms and dads? Our grandmothers and our grandfathers? Who will support us as we age?
